    Description

    The Department of Defense, specifically the Naval Air Warfare Center Training Systems Division (NAWC TSD), is issuing a Special Notice to gauge industry interest in providing Internal Contractor Support Services (iCSS). The initiative aims to streamline the evaluation of indirect rates for cost realism analysis, proposing a shift from traditional documentation to utilizing DCAA or DCMA rate approval letters, or evidence from third-party accounting firms. This approach is intended to reduce the proposal development burden and enhance the effectiveness of discussions, focusing solely on indirect rates while leaving direct rates unaffected. Interested parties are encouraged to respond to specific questions regarding the feasibility and impact of this proposed approach by November 22, 2024, at 3:00 PM EST. For further inquiries, contact Michael Yucht at Michael.D.Yucht.civ@us.navy.mil or 407-380-4894, or Caitlyn Ersek at caitlyn.e.ersek.civ@us.navy.mil or 407-380-8050.
