- Description
- INTENT TO SOLE SOURCE Migration and SW support of the Teammate Plus program # SS-TGT-21-033 The Bureau of Fiscal Service (Fiscal Service), on behalf of TIGTA, intends to contract with Wolters Kluwer, 4221 W. Boy Scout Blvd, Tampa, Florida, on a sole source basis. There is no competitive vendor or regulatory agency that provides these datasets. The proposed Contractor developed and owns the propriety and patented hardware, software and algorithms that are used in these products and support the services specifically required for this acquisition; thereby the proposed source has the sole unique technical and other resources required for this acquisition. Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration (TIGTA) requires migration and SW support of the Teammate program, which contains hierarchical ownership constructs distinguishing linkages and relationships that TIGTA�s Office of Audit has exclusively used the Teammate software for its mission critical electronic audit workpapers.� Teammate AM is nearing the end of its useful life and TIGTA OA will need to migrate to the upgraded Teammate Plus software to continue its audit operations in an electronic environment.� TeamMate Plus software offers the necessary features and controls needed in order to meet standards and to efficiently and effectively document audit evidence.� Wolters Kluwer is the sole manufacturer and seller of TeamMate Plus software required for TIGTA to maintain its mission critical work in performing/documenting audits in order to affect tax administration.� ���� TIGTA did receive vendors presentation on other audit management software.� After the presentation and preliminary testing of the software, TIGTA determined the other software programs would not meet our needs to efficiently document audit evidence and other controls that are needed in order to meet Government Auditing Standards.� TeamMate Plus software offers the necessary features and controls needed in order to meet standards and to efficiently and effectively document audit evidence.� Wolters Kluwer is the only vendor that offers TeamMate Plus software.� Therefore, market research was not conducted. � The OFR and FSOC currently use the proposed contractor�s brand name product for the continuing mission to deliver an annual assessment of the state of the U.S. financial system, as required by the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010.� The period of performance for the purchase order is anticipated to be one 12-month base period with four 12-month options. The total estimated value of this purchase order will exceed the simplified acquisition threshold. NO SOLICITATION IS AVAILABLE. �A request for more information, or a copy of the solicitation, will not be considered an affirmative response to this Special Notice. Telephone responses or inquiries to this Special Notice will not be accepted. Fiscal Service will consider written responses received no later than 01/26/2021. Responses must be submitted electronically to purchasing@fiscal.treasury.gov, Responses must include sufficient evidence that clearly shows your company is capable of providing the content described in this notice. Responses received will be evaluated; however, a determination by the Government not to compete the proposed procurement based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. If no written response is received by the aforementioned deadline that clearly demonstrates an ability to meet all requirements, and that is more advantageous to the Government, Fiscal Service will make award on a sole source basis to OpenCorporates. Qualified Contractors must provide the following: 1. The name and location of your company, contact information, and identify your business size (Large Business, Small Business, Disadvantaged Business, 8(a), Service Disabled Veteran Owned Small Business, HUBZone, etc.). �Please ensure contact information includes the name of the point of contact, email address, and telephone number, should the Government have questions regarding individual responses. 2.
