The Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) is seeking a contractor to establish and manage a Pre-Employment Processing & Hiring Center of Excellence to streamline the hiring process for various career fields, including Special Agents and Chemists. The contractor will be responsible for providing comprehensive pre-employment processing services, which may encompass site management, staffing, travel arrangements, and various assessments such as fingerprinting, psychological evaluations, and medical examinations. This initiative is crucial as the DEA anticipates approximately 900 job offers and 530 hires annually, aiming to enhance the efficiency of its hiring practices. Interested parties can submit informal replies or capability statements to Laura Over at laura.e.over@dea.gov, with no formal submissions currently required, as this is a new requirement without an incumbent contract.
