Description

DRAFT REQUEST FOR INFORMATION RFI TIRNO-04-FC This Request for Information (RFI) is NOT a Request for Proposals (RFP) and is NOT a commitment by the Government to issue a solicitation or ultimately to award a contract on the basis of this RFI or otherwise pay for the information solicited. Response to the RFI will NOT serve as proposals, bids, or offers, which could be accepted by the Government to form a binding contract. The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) is currently conducting a Business Case Analysis (BCA)to examine competitive sourcing alternatives for the Fuel Compliance Officer (FCO) Program. The IRS is interested in gaining further information through market research from service providers with relevant and sustained experience in fuel inspection services. The objective of this RFI is to obtain technical capability statements tailored to this request for the requirements outlined in the Draft Requirement Document as well as answers to a series of questions regarding service provider abilities to provide the service as described. The requirements document provides the background and scope, instructions, description of the types of fuel inspections and screenings performed, workload data and locations of the IRS FCO program. All interested service providers may request a copy of the DRAFT Requirement Document and are hereby invited to submit a technical capability statement of no more than ten pages to demonstrate their technical abilities. Answers to the questions in the Draft Requirements Documents are excluded from the technical capability statement ten page count. All employees need to be able to pass the IRS Minimum Background Investigation requirements. In addition to information provided by your technical capability statements, provide a total of five present and past performance references of similar contracts that have been completed in the past five years. References should include a current point of contact with valid phone number for both contractual and technical disciplines, a brief statement of the scope of work, contract duration and the total dollar amount. No page limit on present and past performance information. Service Providers should identify any information they consider to be sensitive or proprietary due to the fact that the IRS has a support commercial contractor assisting in the development of the Business Case Analysis. Teaming arrangements, subcontracting and mentor protege programs are encouraged. Responses will also assist the Government in their market research to determine whether to set-aside, restrict competition in some way or solicit offers from all responsible sources. Therefore, please identify your interest in either being a Prime or Sub-contractor for this requirement. In order for the IRS to assess set-aside possibilities, interested parties shall also include a cover letter that includes company name, points of contract, telephone numbers, fax numbers, e-mail addresses for points of contact, prime or sub-contractor interest, and identifies the company as one or more of the following: 1) small business; 2) 8(a) business; 3) HUBZone small business; 4) small disadvantaged business; 5) woman-owned small business; (6) veteran-owned small business; (7) service-disabled veteran-owned small business, or (8) large business.
