R--OMB Circular A-76 Commercial Activities -- Study of Mail and File Clerk Services

The Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) is conducting a study under the USDA Express Review to evaluate the provision of Mail and File Clerk services at its Honolulu, Hawaii office, which are currently handled by government employees. The purpose of this study is to determine whether these services should continue being performed in-house or if a solicitation should be issued to contract out these functions. Upon completion, the study's findings will be announced via a FedBizOpps notice, which will also initiate a Public Review Period to gather feedback. This study falls under the R--OMB Circular A-76 Commercial Activities framework and is identified by solicitation number NRCS-HI-03-11, posted on March 14, 2003. While specific details such as agency name, office address, or NAICS codes are not provided, the focus remains on assessing the cost-effectiveness and operational feasibility of maintaining these clerical services as government-performed tasks versus outsourcing them. The outcome will guide NRCS management in making informed decisions about resource allocation and service delivery models for the Honolulu office.
