1. Introduction and Background

The Millennium Challenge Corporation (MCC) is a United States Government-owned corporation created in 2004, whose mission is to provide grant assistance to support economic growth and poverty reduction in carefully selected developing countries that demonstrate a commitment to just and democratic governance, economic freedom, and investments in their citizenry. To receive assistance, eligible countries are required to enter into a public agreement (Compact or Threshold Program) with the MCC that includes a multi-year plan for achieving shared development objectives and the responsibilities of each country in achieving those objectives. Our model is defined by core principles of selectivity, country ownership, transparency, and a focus on results.

2. Scope of Position

This PSC position is located within the Monitoring and Evaluation (M&E) Division of MCC's Department of Policy and Evaluation (DPE). DPE's mission is to provide management oversight for the development and implementation of policy and best practices related to country eligibility, economic analysis, monitoring and evaluation, knowledge management and policy reform. DPE manages MCC's Threshold Programs and formulates strategies that leverage MCC impact with foundations;

international donors and other U.S. Government agencies.

Results Reporting Analysts support the results reporting function of the M&E division by carrying out data validation, database management, literature reviews and other background research, data entry, report layout and production, and website support. The analysts will report to the future Contracting Officer Representative (COR) of the M&E Division in the Department of Policy and Evaluation.

3. Personal Services Contract https://www.mcc.gov/careers/pay-bands mailto:pembertonwe@mcc.gov mailto:maxwellre@mcc.gov

MCC is authorized to enter into a contract with an individual as a Personal Services Contractor (PSC) under the authority of Section 614(a)(8) of the Millennium Challenge Act of 2003.

A personal services contract is different from non-personal services Government contract, which establishes an independent contract relationship. Under a non-personal services contract, the contractor or employees of the contractor are subject to the technical direction but not the supervision of the MCC. As defined by the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 37.104, a personal services contract is characterized by the employer-employee relationship it creates between the Government and the contractor personnel. Thus, the PSC is subject to the relatively continuous technical direction, supervision, and control of the MCC. PSCs may be assigned inherently governmental duties (see FAR 7.502). By law and by the contract's terms, the PSC is subject to most of the laws, rules and regulations applicable to the direct hire employee such as MCC regulations, conflict of interest, under some circumstances MCC authorized employment security clearances and financial disclosure.

However, under the MCC personal services contract authority, PSCs are not employees for purposes of laws administered by the Office of Personnel Management (OPM). The following elements apply to this contract:

1) Performance in Washington, D.C., US, MCC eligible countries, and/or at the PSC's home of record.

2) Principal tools and equipment furnished by the Government.

3) Services are applied directly to the integral effort of agencies or an organizational subpart in furtherance of assigned function or mission.

4) Comparable services, meeting comparable needs, are performed in the same or similar agencies using civil service personnel.

5) The need for the type of service provided can reasonably be expected to last beyond 1 year.

6) The inherent nature of the service, or the manner in which it is provided, reasonably requires directly or indirectly, Government direction or supervision of contractor employees in order to—

i. Adequately protect the Government's interest;

ii. Retain control of the function involved; or

iii. Retain full personal responsibility for the function supported in a duly authorized Federal officer or employee.

4. Key Requirements

Awardee must satisfy the following key requirements:

• U.S. citizenship.

• Must be able to obtain and maintain a Public Trust security clearance.

• Principal place of performance at MCC Headquarters in Washington, DC, and/or at the PSC's office or home of record. The PSC will be expected to meet with MCC staff at MCC offices on an as-needed basis. Relocation expenses will not be paid. Note: Candidates permanently residing outside of the Washington, DC metropolitan area may require a waiver for approval of remote working arrangements.

• Domestic and overseas travel (to MCC eligible countries) may be required.

• Statement of Employment & Financial Interest (e.g., Office of Government Ethics "OGE Form-450" or similar statement) may be required.

• Active System for Award Management (www.sam.gov) registration and be listed as sole-proprietor (note: this is a free, Government website).

• Designated and/or random drug testing may be required.

• The Millennium Challenge Corporation (MCC) is precluded from permitting Personal Services Contractors (PSCs) from permanently working overseas without the Chief of Mission Authority or an approved Domestice Employee Teleworking Overseas (DETO) Agreement.

5. Duties

a) Major Duties and Responsibilities

The PSC will be expected to complete a number of tasks to support MCC's Monitoring and Evaluation Division as noted in Section J-1 Attachment | Position Description.

https://www.acquisition.gov/?q=browsefar

Specific duties include, but are not limited to, the following:

• In conjunction with sector and front-office staff, collect, manage, package and disseminate preidentified program data by country and sector on a quarterly basis.

• Assist with review and management of submissions of quarterly Indicator Tracking Tables (ITTs) from all Compact and Threshold Program countries, including conducting quality control for completeness and accuracy, managing changes to historical data, updating country ITTs as necessary based on revisions to Monitoring and Evaluation plans, working with countries to address any corrections or updates, and tracking timeliness of quarterly submissions.

• Prepare new quarterly ITT templates for all Compact and Threshold countries, which includes a detailed review and quality audit of all historical data.

• Provide research, analysis and presentation support for short-notice results reporting/information requests and ad-hoc reports for Management and external sources (such as the Government Accountability Office and the Office of Management and Budget.)

• Perform quarterly updates to the M&E pages of MCC's external website. This may include:

o Preparing updated tables each quarter of key performance indicators (KPI) for each country in implementation;

o Updating and conducting quality control each quarter of sector data posted on the M&E website;

o Assisting with copy editing, fact-checking, and quality control for both data and text content for the website;

o Updating select funding and financial data each quarter for posting on the M&E website; and o Updating information related to impact and performance evaluations.

• Provide support as necessary to the development of guidance and templates related to results reporting for M&E staff and M&E country counterparts.

• Work with MCC's Management Information System (MIS) team on user acceptance testing, requirements definition, data modeling, data migration, and guidance documents as part of the system development process.

• Coordinate with M&E Management to manage the annual Independent Evaluation budget, including forecasting and reporting.

• Work with M&E staff and management to develop and maintain workflow tracking documents, including tracking MCC's evaluation pipeline.

• Develop other related materials such as fact sheets and other public communication tools for use on the M&E website or for other external reporting purposes.

• Develop, maintain and manage an internal M&E SharePoint site, including development of site structure, transfer and upload of key documents, and maintenance of content.

• Performs other related duties as assigned.

b) Travel

MCC estimates that the incumbent may undertake international travel to MCC-eligible countries on an as-needed basis, and to other U.S. and foreign cities as required for outreach purposes.

c) Supervisory Controls

The supervisor and/or higher graded staff assign specific projects in terms of issues, organizations, functions, or work processes to be studied and sets deadlines for completing the work. The supervisor or higher-graded staff provide on-going assistance/guidance on issues or assignments for which precedent studies are not available. The employee plans, coordinates, and carries out the successive steps in fact-finding and analysis of issues in accordance with accepted office policies, applicable precedents, organizational concepts, management theory, and occupational training. Work is reviewed in-progress and upon completion for conformance with overall requirements, contribution to the study objectives, consistency of facts and figures, choice of analytical methods, and practicality of recommendations.

d) Guidelines

Guidelines consist of procedures, policies, and manuals covering the application of analytical methods and techniques, and reference material, instructions, and regulations covering the subjects involved. The guidelines are not completely applicable to the work or have gaps in specificity, requiring the employee to use judgment in choosing, interpreting, and adapting guidelines to specific issues or subjects studied.

e) Complexity

The work principally involves dealing with problems and relationships of a procedural nature. Projects usually take place within organizations with related functions and objectives, although organization and work procedures differ from one assignment to the next. Findings and recommendations are based upon analysis of work observations, review of production records or similar documentation, research of precedent studies, and application of standard administrative guidelines.

f) Scope and Effect

The purpose of the work is to identify, analyze, and make recommendations to resolve conventional program or organizational issues, problems, or situations. The employee is assigned portions of broader studies, or participates in the evaluation of program effectiveness at the operating or local level. Completed reports and recommendations influence decisions by higher-graded specialists or managers concerning administrative or program operations.

g) Personal Contacts/Purpose of Contacts

Personal contacts are with MCC employees, supervisors, and managers, as-well-as employees and representatives of private concerns in moderately structured settings. The purpose of contacts is to provide advice and assistance on non-controversial organization or program-related issues and concerns. Contacts typically involve such matters as identification of options and alternatives; evaluation of progress in meeting program or organizational goals; or recommendations for resolving administrative problems.

h) Physical Demands

The work is primarily sedentary, although some walking, bending, or carrying of light items may be involved.

i) Work Environment

Work is performed in an office setting.

(CPARS) REGISTRATION (NOV 2019)

Contractors doing business with MCC are required to register in CPARS accessible via the Internet at: http://www.cpars.gov. An evaluation of contractor performance using the CPARS is mandatory for all contract actions exceeding the simplified threshold, but may be conducted for contract actions lower than that amount should significant events occur such as a contract termination or extraordinary contract performance by the contractor. Inquiries regarding the registration process should be addressed to the CPARS help desk.

The email address is WEBPTSMH@NAVY.MILand the telephone number is (207) 438-1690. As part of this process, the contractor must determine who will serve as their CPARS "Contractor Representative" in the CPARS system. If, at any time, the contractor makes a determination that their CPARS Contractor Representative needs to change to a different individual, the contractor must contact MCC via email at the address CPARS@mcc.gov to notify MCC of the change so that appropriate action can be taken by MCC's CPARS Focal Points to ensure that the contractor receives timely notification of their evaluation. Failure to do so may result in the contractor not receiving their evaluation in a timely manner and may result in the contractor not receiving the opportunity to provide comments in response to MCC's evaluation. The email notification to CPARS@mcc.gov must contain the following information:

1. Name and email address of previous CPARS Contractor Representative

2. Name and email address of new CPARS Contractor Representative

3. Contract and order number (if applicable) of each affected contract that the contractor has with MCC.
