B -- A-76 Streamlined Competition for Network Management Activity

The Office of Personnel Management (OPM) conducted an A-76 streamlined competition to evaluate the performance of its Network Management activity, which is part of the Division for Management and Chief Financial Officer’s Center for Information Services and Chief Information Officer. This activity, involving 21 full-time equivalent positions, is currently staffed by government employees located in Washington, DC, Macon, GA, Boyers, PA, and Charlottesville, VA. The competition was overseen by key officials including Clarence Crawford as the Competitive Sourcing Official, Henry Wong as the Contracting Officer, and George Hyder as the Agency Tender Official. Following a thorough review, the final decision, signed on April 14, 2004, determined that the Network Management activity would continue to be performed by OPM employees rather than being outsourced. This decision reflects OPM's commitment to maintaining government performance for this function, ensuring continuity and leveraging existing government expertise. The competition process was completed with a projected end date of April 15, 2004. The solicitation was referenced under the number "Reference-Number-NoRfA761" and classified under NAICS code 561110. The contracting officer for inquiries connected to the solicitation is Alfred J. Chatterton, who can be contacted via phone or email as provided. The overall outcome preserves federal management control over critical network operations within OPM’s administrative framework.
