About this file

This is a Market Survey Question and Answer Document that consolidates vendor inquiries and FAA responses regarding the Enterprise Financial Services (EFS) II procurement. The document contains 85 comments and questions submitted by vendors including CEXEC, Changeis Inc., Delaware Nation Industries, Elevare LLC, Guidehouse Inc., Human Touch, JMA Solution, Millennium Enterprise Corporation, and Tantus Technologies between June 1-11, 2025, with responses issued by June 26, 2026. The anticipated NAICS code is 541219 (Other Accounting Services), though vendors questioned whether 541611 (Administrative Management Consulting) would be more appropriate given the broad scope of nine work areas spanning budget operations, financial operations, program and project management, training, strategic planning, risk management, and administrative services.

Key procurement structure decisions remain to be determined at the solicitation phase, including whether EFS II will be structured as a single or multiple-award contract, whether separate award tracks will exist for small business versus large business competitors, whether offerors must demonstrate capability across all nine work areas or can compete for subsets, and whether cross-teaming between small and large businesses will be permitted. The incumbent contractors are Ernst & Young LLP (large business) and CEXEC Inc. (small business) under contracts totaling $483,661,447. The FAA confirmed that primary financial systems in scope are PRISM and Delphi, that hybrid work arrangements are anticipated, support will be distributed across multiple FAA facilities, data visualization and financial analytics tools (such as Tableau or Power BI) are in scope, a 90-day transition period is planned, and existing training content will be leveraged. Numerous questions marked as "TBD" (To Be Determined) indicate that the solicitation phase will clarify contract type options (firm fixed price, time-and-materials, labor-hour), staffing requirements, labor category qualifications, Section 508 compliance scope, key personnel requirements, and organizational conflict of interest restrictions.
