The National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA) seeks contract support for its procurement policy through the Office of Contract Services (OCS). The project focuses on enhancing acquisition policy implementation and effective contracting practices, emphasizing small business participation and competition. The scope includes expert advisory assistance in various aspects of acquisition, such as cradle-to-grave support, strategic acquisition strategy development, and compliance reviews, necessitating personnel with extensive experience and qualifications.
The work outlines responsibilities for Senior Contracting and Procurement Policy Analysts, including source selection support, cost/price analysis, and training of NGA staff. Additional roles involve monitoring regulatory changes, maintaining acquisition policy documents, and providing ongoing analytical support.
Contract deliverables include monthly progress reports and transition plans, with services mainly executed at NGA facilities across specific locations. Government-provided facilities and security measures for contractor personnel are also addressed, ensuring compliance with NGA's information security policies. The document emphasizes the need for experienced staff to facilitate smooth acquisition operations and enhance NGA's mission effectiveness.
The National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA) issued a Request for Information (RFI) through its Office of Contract Services (OCS) to seek industry input on providing non-personal services for Policy Support. This RFI aims to assess interest, feasibility, and capability among contractors to aid in developing and implementing NGA procurement policy, ensuring effective contracting, and advising stakeholders. OCS estimates needing eight Full-Time Equivalents (FTEs) for various roles, including Senior Contracting and Procurement Policy Analysts.
The contracting effort will start around September 2025, featuring a base year and four option years. Contractor services are primarily required at NGA facilities in Virginia and Missouri, with potential for telework. All contractor personnel must hold active Top Secret/Sensitive Compartmented Information (TS/SCI) clearances.
This RFI does not solicit proposals but invites parties to submit a white paper detailing their experiences, capabilities, and recommendations for this acquisition. Responses are due by February 21, 2025. The NGA emphasizes that participation does not guarantee future contract awards and all submissions become government property. The RFI serves as a means to refine contractual needs and potential small business involvement in fulfilling NGA's support requirements.
