D--OMB Circular A-76 Streamlined Competition National Park Service - IT Support

The Department of the Interior's National Park Service is undertaking a Streamlined Competition for Information Technology Support Services, following the guidelines of OMB Circular A-76. Currently, these services are delivered by government personnel and contractors totaling approximately 7.79 full-time equivalents based in Harpers Ferry, West Virginia. This process aims to determine whether the IT support services should continue to be provided in-house or contracted out, with a decision expected by the end of April 2008. The competition covers NAICS codes 541513 and 541519, which pertain to computer facilities management and other computer-related services. It is important to note that this announcement is not a solicitation for proposals and does not obligate the government to award a contract. A solicitation will only be issued if contracting out the work is deemed more cost-effective than in-house performance. Key officials involved include Kate Stevenson as the Competitive Sourcing Official, Christopher Jarvi as the Agency Tender Official, and JoAnne Grove as the Contracting Officer and point of contact. The contract information is managed by the Department of the Interior's Dsc Contracting Services Division, based in Denver, Colorado. All inquiries should be directed to JoAnne Grove.
