The Customer Engagement Management System Call Center Support (CEMS II) contract, solicitation number ED-JA-2021-0001, is an award notice issued by the Department of Education's Office of Federal Student Aid. This sole source procurement, authorized under 20 USC 1018a(e) and 41 USC 1901, provides critical contact center and transition support services. The scope of work specifically covers the Ombudsman's Feedback and Dispute Management System, Borrower Defense, and Office of Inspector General support. The contract was established as a five-month bridge agreement to ensure continuity of operations and avoid the impractical expenses and time associated with onboarding a new vendor. Due to the specialized knowledge base required for Federal Student Aid needs and the fact that transition periods would exceed the duration of the bridge contract, the award was directed to the incumbent, Senture. The performance of these services is associated with NAICS code 541511.

Full Description

Show more
The circumstances of the contract action deem only one source reasonably available and is the most advantageous source for purposes of the award. The services described in this memo require a knowledge base focused on the specific needs of FSA. Although a new vendor could acquire the needed expertise over time, the short duration of the - bridge contract (five months) does not make it practical, expedient, or advantageous considering that the transition/ramp up period could last up to three months and the transition/ramp down period could last up to three months, resulting in six months of unnecessary performance and expense. The statutory authority permitting this sole source is 20 USC 1018a(e) and 41 USC 1901.
