The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) seeks a contractor with the capabilities required to conduct administrative investigations of a non-criminal nature. This includes, but is not limited to, the investigation of possible administrative violations and the preparation of written reports of investigative findings in a timely and cost-effective manner and in accordance with the "Quality Standards for Investigations," set forth by the President's Council on Integrity and Efficiency (PCIE). FEMA requires these investigations and reports so that those agency officials responsible for enforcing FEMA standards of conduct have a factual report upon which to determine whether an administrative violation has occurred and, if so, whether the Agency should take action as a result of that violation. Furthermore, the information developed during an investigation must be gathered, stored, and disseminated in accordance with the Privacy Act of 1974. The procurement will be conducted pursuant to full and open competition procedures and in accordance with FAR Part 15. The Government intends to award a contract on a best value competitive proposal process. The contract type will be Indefinite Quantity / Indefinite Delivery with Performance Based Task Orders to be issued on a Cost-Plus-Fixed-Fee basis. The period of performance of the contract is anticipated to last from the effective date of award through the following twelve (12) months, with provisions for up to four (4) option periods, which will last for a period of twelve (12) months each. All requests for a copy of the Request for Proposal must be received in writing, either by hard copy, facsimile (202) 646-2970, or electronic mail (Scott.Drega@fema.gov). All requests sent via electronic mail must contain the full name and address of the firm as well as the name and telephone number of the primary point of contact for this procurement at the firm. Telephone requests will not be honored. Posted 11/04/99 (W-SN398344). (0308)
