- Description
- THIS IS A NOTICE OF INTENT TO SOLE SOURCE AND NOT A REQUEST FOR QUOTATION OR PROPOSAL. THERE IS NO SOLICITATION PACKAGE AVAILABLE FOR THIS ACTION. The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), Office of the Chief Procurement Officer (OCPO), located in Washington, DC, intends to negotiate and award a Time and Materials (T&M) sole-source contract to Guidehouse (1676 International Drive, Ste 800, McLean, VA 22102). This acquisition is being conducted using the policies and procedures of Federal Acquisition Regulations (FAR) Subpart 8.4, �Ordering Under the Federal Supply Schedule.� The FAR Part 12 �Acquisition of Commercial Items� as supplemented by the Housing and Urban Development Acquisition Regulation (HUDAR) will be used to evaluate the quote and award this requirement. The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code for this requirement is 541219: Other Accounting Services. The PSC Code is R703: Support- Management: Accounting. Background & General Description of Work: HUD�s Government National Mortgage Association (Ginnie Mae) has an urgent requirement for a sole source award to Guidehouse, to continue supporting Ginnie Mae�s Mortgage-Backed Securities (MBS) Program. The current contract 86615524C00004 was awarded on June 16, 2024 to Guidehouse, for a base period of 6months FAR 52.217-8 was exercised to provide an additional 6 months, and two 3-month Continuity of Services extensions were issued to allow for transition-out services and award of the follow-on task order. The current contract expires on December 15, 2025. Ginnie Mae requires Field Compliance Reviews. The contractor shall conduct Compliance Reviews to determine whether the Ginnie Mae pools, and underlying mortgages are being administered in accordance with Ginnie Mae requirements. Unique Characteristics of the Requirement: The circumstances of this requirement deem only one source reasonably available due to the unusual and compelling urgency of the Government�s need for continuous services. Ginnie Mae�s Mortgage-Backed Securities carry the full faith and credit guaranty of the United States government. The mission of the Monitoring Division is to protect Ginnie Mae�s MBS which in turn protects the American people. Conducting compliance reviews and specialized reviews, including ad hoc and forensic analysis of Issuers in the Ginnie Mae MBS Program, is essential to Ginnie Mae�s ability to ensure Issuers and Document Custodian compliance. These compliance reviews give stakeholders reasonable assurance that the collateral supporting Ginnie Mae mortgage-backed security pools exists and meets Ginnie Mae�s requirements. The current contract is set to expire on December 15, 2025. The Government is in the process of evaluating quotes submitted under Solicitation 86615525Q00005, which closed on September 26, 2025. However, the 43?day government shutdown has delayed both the evaluation process and the subsequent task order award. To mitigate these delays, the Government intends to issue a sole source task order to Guidehouse. This action will provide the necessary time to complete technical evaluations, conduct a thorough price analysis, and finalize award of the new task order. It will also ensure adequate time for transition?in and transition?out activities if needed. General Information & Instructions: This is NOT a solicitation for quotations, quotation abstracts, a request for competitive quotations; or request for competitive proposals; however, all responses received within 3 days from the date of publication of this synopsis will be considered by the Government. Any responses to this notice must clearly and thoroughly defend claims or assertions that attempt to refute the government�s stance. A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed action based upon responses to this notice is solely with the discretion of the Government. Information received will normally be considered for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement, but the information must eliminate the government's concerns and address how the items can be provided without jeopardizing the requirement. Simply submitting a brochure or capabilities statement is not a guaranteed way to alleviate or eliminate the government's concerns. Responses must be specifically tailored to address (1) exactly how the offeror�s services can be provided without jeopardizing the Government�s mission, (2) how the approach overcomes the barrier to competition the Government faces, and (3) how the approach is more advantageous to the Government than the sole source approach. If no affirmative responses are received within 3 days of this notice, a task order will be issued to Guidehouse. Any questions regarding this notice must be submitted in writing via email to Tarita.L.Leftwich@hud.gov and Jennifer.M.Perez@hud.gov.
