- Description
- This is a notice of intent to award a sole source purchase order under the authority of FAR Part 13.106-1(b)(1)(i), only one source reasonably available. ICE ERO has a requirement for reaccreditation of the Krome Service Processing Center in accordance with ICE Detention Standards. The accreditation process is administered only by a commission from the American Correctional Association (ACA) and ensures that detention facilities maintain compliance with the Standards for Adult Local Detention Facilities, a detention standard that was developed by the ACA and that ICE incorporated into our own internal detention standards. This requirement will supply ICE with the necessary accreditation as well as a mock audit to be performed at the Krome facility in preparation for the ACA audit. In accordance with this agreement, the vendor will perform the following: a. Use only standards approved by the American Correctional Association in the reaccreditation process, making judgments of compliance based on written documentation, visual confirmation, or both; b. Provide information on the reaccreditation program and process, and the participation of the agency, facility or program therein, to the Agency's governing and/or contract authority; c. Conduct an orientation to the reaccreditation program and process, if requested, at the Agency's expense; d. Cooperate with the Agency, its Administrator, Accreditation Manager and staff in requests for assistance, information, and materials required in the implementation and conduct of the reaccreditation process; e. Appoint all auditors/consultants based upon their experience and demonstrated knowledge; f. Conduct reconsideration hearings using procedures approved by the Association and the Board of Commissioners; g. Agree that all materials provided, and information gathered, will be held in strict confidence consistent with the professional contractor/client relationship. Accreditation information will be shared among the Commission, officers, auditors and staff on a need to know basis. h. Provide to the agency, facility or program if awarded reaccreditation, a Certificate of Accreditation; this certificate shall identify the agency, facility or program and the year in which accreditation is awarded; the certificate and all copies and facsimiles remain the property of the American Correctional Association, and shall be returned to the Association upon the expiration or loss, for any reason, of accreditation; and, i. Publish the name of the accredited agency, facility or program in an annual summary. No solicitation package will be issued. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals; it is for informational purposes only. Interested persons may identify their interest and capability to respond to this requirement. Any response to this notice must show clear and convincing evidence that competition would be advantageous to the Government in future procurements. Information received will normally be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement in the future.
