Memorandum

To: Offerors of Solicitation 15JE1R-22-PR-0098

From: Nikki Adkins, Contracting Officer

Subject: Legal Access at the Border (LAB) Program – Notice ID 15JE1R-22-PR-

The Office of Procurement Services (OPS) posted solicitation #15JE1R-22-PR-0098 on

January 19, 2022, for receipt of quotations on the Legal Access at the Border Program. The offer due date was February 2, 2022, at 12:00 p.m. EST. The Government received only one proposal and that proposal offered to provide services for only one of the seven desired locations, did not match the Government’s need in some key areas and the price was not in line with the IGE. The Government believes these discrepancies were due to the fact that the statement of work did not adequately explain all of the Government’s requirements.

For these reasons, the Government has made the determination to cancel this solicitation, revise the requirements to create a more defined procurement and issue a new solicitation. The Government believes revising the specifications will result in receiving more proposals that adequately address all of the Government’s needs. This new solicitation will be provided to the public via www.sam.gov for the Legal Access at the Border Program. The one vendor that submitted a proposal under the canceled solicitation will have an opportunity to compete for the new procurement.
