- Description
- This is a Notice of the Navy ™s intent to procure on a sole source basis with The Partnership for Public Service (PPS) for an agency-wide, royalty-free, worldwide, non ¬ revocable, non-transferable and non-assignable license to use, reproduce, and distribute the PPS materials solely for the DON internal business purposes. This will be used by the OCHR to attend quarterly meetings with cross-sector experts, research products, Emerging HR Leaders Forum and to share best practices and devise government-wide strategies to address the challenges identified by member agencies. Under Federal Acquisition Procedures (FAR) 13.106-1(b) (1), soliciting from a single source, the Federal Human Capital Collaborative (FHCC) is only available from the non-profit, nonpartisan organization PPS, Inc. The FHCC is an active community of federal managers and human resources professionals that identifies cross-cutting challenges and works collaboratively and systematically to solve them. The FHCC is administered by the PPS that is a nonpartisan, non-profit organization that works to revitalize our federal government. The Collaborative convenes member agencies to participate in research, share best practices and devise government-wide strategies to address the challenges identified by member agencies. This subscription is unique because it provides a combination of shared-cost research economics and a customer-based client model to 40 management research areas. Only PPS can provide this necessary subscription. PPS Membership benefits include the following: (1) Opportunity to nominate 12 Human Resource (HR) staff members - 6 each in 2 Cohort of the Emerging HR Leaders Forum in the aforementioned membership year - a 1 year professional development program for high potential federal HR professionals. Emerging HR Leaders meet monthly in a facilitated peer-exchange environment and may also engage in cross agency team learning activities between meetings; (2) Quarterly meetings with human resources leaders from other federal agencies to identify critical issues, highlight best practices, facilitate problem solving and develop strategies to effect change across government and within the Administration; (3) Discounted or no-cost participation in partnership webinars, workshops, trainings and discounts on other partnership services; (4) Collaborate with the PPS and other member agencies to influence the agenda for regulatory and legislative reforms; to develop and enhance the federal HR profession; and (5) Receive regular updates from the partnership on its work and programs, as well as updates on trends, events and other issues within the federal government. To award this procurement to any other firm would not be beneficial to the Government. PPS is the only vendor that can satisfactorily support this requirement. The period of performance for this subscription includes one twelve (12) month base period to begin 30 September 2016 through 29 September 2017 with two twelve (12) month option periods. Successively, it is intended to negotiate a sole source purchase order in accordance with FAR part 13 using Simplified Acquisition Procedures as supplemented with the additional information included in this notice. This is not a request for quotes, instead interested parties may submit capability information in order to challenge this intent to go sole source with PPS by COB 12 September 2016 to Shawn.Thomas1@navy.mil; however the final decision to process this requirement on a competitive vice sole source basis (as depicted herein) rests with the Navy. The applicable NAICS code is 511210.
