- This public announcement is being issued as required by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Circular A-76 (Revised), dated May 29, 2003. The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) announces that it intends to conduct an A-76 competition to determine whether the work described below in support of the NASA Shared Services Center (NSSC) will be performed by the Federal Government or by a private source. The NSSC concept is to consolidate selected NASA business and technical services currently performed at ten remote NASA Centers to one location, in order to eliminate duplication, improve quality and efficiency, and lower cost. The final location of the NSSC site is currently under study. Site selection will be announced in a subsequent public release. NASA intends to conduct this acquisition using the Standard Competition Procedures as provided in the OMB Circular A-76. Further, the intent is to make one award to a single service provider who would be responsible for providing all of the technical and business services under study. NASA does not intend to make separate awards for each business and technical service under study. In general, the selected business and technical services under study are as follows: (1) Human Resources Services; (2) Financial Management Services; (3) Procurement Services, and (4) Information Technology (IT) Services.
