INTRODUCTION AND BACKGROUND Pursuant to FAR 10 "Market Research", this is a Request for Information / Sources Sought Notice (RFI) issued by the Bureau of the Fiscal Service (Fiscal Service) on behalf of the Fiscal Accounting Operations (FAO). The purpose of this RFI is to obtain industry information and identify potential sources that are both capable of and interested in providing the services outlined herein. The information is being sought solely for market research and acquisition planning purposes. 2. BACKGROUND The mission of Fiscal Service is to promote the financial integrity and operational efficiency of the Federal Government through exceptional accounting, financing, collections, payments, and shared services. When obligations are acquired by the Secretary of the Treasury for the Federal Government or delivered by an executive agency, it is the responsibility of the Secretary to liquidate those items pursuant to 31 USC § 324. Obligations are usually the result of debt or liability collection efforts. Once executive agencies acquire these obligations, they are forwarded to Fiscal Service for processing and transaction. 3. GENERAL SCOPE OF WORK Fiscal Service has an ongoing requirement for a contractor to provide liquidation services for a variety of securities; domestic and foreign, that could be held at several locations within Treasury. Fiscal Service receives securities on behalf of other Government agencies and is required to liquidate the securities timely with the use of a qualified security broker-dealer in a manner that does not have an impact on the market. The Contractor shall take control of, safe-keep, research, and liquidate the securities for Fiscal Service under a fee-for-service arrangement, taking the commission and fees from the sale amount and depositing the balance of funds into a Fiscal Service controlled account using the standard industry settlement methods. Proceeds from pending sales are to be held in a non-interest bearing account in the name of Fiscal Service until the transaction is completed on the books of the Contractor. Fiscal Service will notify the agency of the date and amount of the sale and ensure that the proper financial reporting has taken place. 4. REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS The Contractor, and/or as applicable its subcontractors, shall warrant the fulfillment of each of the following qualifications at all times during the life of their contract so that domestic and/or foreign securities assumed by Fiscal Service can be transferred to the Contractor for safekeeping, liquidating, and the appropriate financial reporting can occur: • Shall be registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) in accordance with the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. • Shall have a EuroClear account or an equivalent to process foreign securities. • Shall have the Medallion Signature Guarantee Stamp with a surety limit/coverage of $10 million to handle, safe keep, and liquidate domestic and/or foreign securities transactions up to $100 million. • Shall have a minimum of five (5) years of experience in both the domestic and foreign securities exchange industry. • Shall have the regulatory authority and be in compliance with all applicable federal, state, and foreign securities exchanges, laws, and regulations to safe keep, liquidate, and financially report transactions for all domestic and/or foreign securities (i.e. not subject to any enforcement action for violations or pending disclosure events, good standing). • Key Personnel shall have at least five (5) years of both domestic and foreign securities experience and shall be properly registered with the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) and all applicable Self-Regulatory Organizations (SROs) and State Securities Commission(s). • Shall have the ability to safe keep securities transferred to them from the Government. • Shall be a registered member with an active status with all other applicable regulatory authorities for conducting business transaction in as a broker-dealer (i.e. State Security Commissions, etc.) and shall be in compliance with all applicable federal, state, and foreign securities exchanges, laws, and regulations to safe keep, liquidate, and financially report transactions for all domestic and/or foreign securities. 5. EQUAL EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITY (EEO) COMPLIANCE As a key condition of the anticipated engagement, the Contractor would be required to comply with the EEO requirements of FAR 52.222-26 and 52.222-25, stemming from Executive Order 11246 by way of 41 CFR 60.
