AI Contract Overview

The U.S. Department of Transportation's Maritime Administration (MARAD) is initiating a streamlined competition under OMB Circular A-76 to determine whether certain administrative, human resources, and supply support services at MARAD Headquarters will be performed by federal employees or outsourced to a private contractor. This study involves approximately 31 full-time equivalent civil service positions currently handling these functions, with no incumbent contractors involved. The acquisition aims to award a single contract to one service provider responsible for all services covered in this competition, rather than separate contracts for individual service areas.

MARAD plans to conclude the competition within 135 calendar days from its announcement date. Key officials managing the process include Richard Weaver as the Competitive Sourcing Official, Eileen Roberson as the Agency Tender Official, and Wayne Leong serving as both Contracting Officer and Source Selection Authority.
