The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) is seeking proposals for court reporting services for various administrative hearings, including Merit Systems Protection Board (MSPB) and Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) hearings. The contract, slated to start in May 2025, will initially cover a 12-month base period with four optional extensions. Court reporters are required to provide accurate verbatim recordings and transcripts for proceedings, estimated at 100 hours and 4,000 pages annually. Services will be conducted both in-person and virtually across multiple DLA locations. Proposals are evaluated based on the lowest price technically acceptable criteria, and submissions must adhere to detailed regulations outlined in the solicitation. The DLA emphasizes the importance of timely service and compliance with security protocols due to the sensitive information handled during these proceedings. All offers must be submitted by March 21, 2025, with strict guidelines for pricing and quotation preparation, given the absence of prior contracts for these specific services within the DLA Counsel – Land and Maritime. The document outlines performance expectations, cancellation policies, and requirements for contractors to ensure effective and efficient court reporting services.
