OCC Arbitration Services

The Master Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) for OCC Arbitration Services is a federal contract vehicle designed to provide arbitration services in accordance with the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency's (OCC) collective bargaining agreement. The vehicle supports dispute resolution processes, specifically addressing grievances, performance-related issues, and institutional disputes between the OCC and the National Treasury Employees Union (NTEU). These arbitration services appear to be primarily focused on resolving workplace and employment-related conflicts through formal hearing processes.

The task orders under this BPA consistently involve arbitration hearings with varying durations, ranging from one to two-day sessions across different locations, including New York and Texas. The typical task order values range from $0 to $5,776.76, with most awards falling between $3,250 and $4,975. While most task orders do not have a specific small business set-aside, one task order was designated as a Total Small Business set-aside. The Major Program Code for all task orders is "ARBITRATION SERVICES", indicating a consistent and focused scope of work. The BPA was originally awarded on July 1, 2015, with a last date to order of September 30, 2019, and maintained a shared ceiling value of $50,000. The pricing mechanism for all task orders is Firm Fixed Price, providing predictability in contract costs.
