About this file
This document appears to be a set of questions and answers related to a Performance Work Statement (PWS) for a HECM Loan Comparison and Underwriting Tool (HLCUT) for the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), Office of Housing Counseling (OHC).
The PWS outlines requirements for the contractor to provide access to the HLCUT for existing HECM roster counselors, with the counselor list to be provided by the Contracting Officer's Representative (COR) in an Excel spreadsheet format. The contractor is required to report on HLCUT usage by agency, counselor, and other users. The PWS also specifies 30-day transition-in and transition-out periods. Pricing details include a "Not to Exceed (NTE) Other Direct Costs for IT Components" line item, for which the amounts differ between attachments. The incumbent contractor is Ibis Software Corporation, and the solicitation will not be extended. The HLCUT is an existing requirement, not a new one.
