More and more, we find that the skills needed to meet task order performance, address today's problems and tomorrow's challenges require individuals with varying levels of education, specialized knowledge and experience. The correct combination of these three elements is often unique and dependent on the particular requirements associated with the work being performed. Business Strategy Consultants has employees and alliances with independent consultants and firms to fill to work any complex project.

Our team of professional consultants have demonstrated experience in various areas related to the

GSA 00CORP SINS referenced above and have the required expertise and capabilities to deliver high performance, low risk, cost-efficient solutions, and therefore “BEST VALUE” for our clients.

CORPORATE EXPERIENCE

Business Strategy Consultants has provided a full range of acquisition streamlining and process improvement consulting and advisory services including assistance in designing source selection procedures to meet agency needs and improving the quality of the evaluation process and source selection decisions. Also, we have provided assistance to agencies in designing, monitoring and improving their internal processes for generating adequate source selection documentation and ensuring that past performance records are sufficient to justify consequential procurement actions.

In addition, Business Strategy Consultants staff has long and in-depth experience with the bureaucratic and regulatory aspects of the Government contracting process, and have provided such services to both public and private clients. We have worked on developing procurement plans, preparing Request For Proposals (RFP), developed evaluation plans, negotiation plans, prepared determinations and findings documents to justify procurement actions and supported agencies to identify the sources of acquisition problems and to recommend corrective actions such as the revision of the format for procurement documentation and the development of new source selection methodologies. Members of the firm are available to consult with agency personnel involved in the design and preparation of solicitation documents.

Business Strategy Consultants has advised several private clients on methods to improve their compliance with government contracting requirements and to enhance their performance under government contracts. This was done through a variety of compliance techniques such as interna l and external auditing, providing line managers with tailored compliance checklists and decision making matrices, and mapping the internal relationships between business units to identify areas of potential compliance risk. Our compliance services are designed to work seamlessly with client s existing business systems so that compliance becomes an integral part of the company s ordinary business processes, instead of an extraneous (and inefficient) system superimposed over other processes.

Business Strategy Consultants has also provided program management support services in the management of the planning and development of complex programs for both the federal government agencies and state and local governments in the program areas of information technology, acquisition management, construction management support and finance and accounting management support. In supporting theses agencies Business Strategy Consultants provided program oversight, and project management leadership.

On privatization support services and documentation, Business Strategy Consultants provided internal planning to support privatization initiatives for health care services, preparation of in-house and internal cost estimates for healthcare privatization init iatives, the development of performance based statements of work for procurement reform initiatives and an evaluation and comparison of in-house estimates to external bids for the work considered.

SIN 874-6 ACQUISITION MANAGEMENT SUPPORT

Business Strategy Consultants has supported agency efforts in the area of privatization includ ing initial planning, the generation of appropriate metrics for assessing the costs of privatizat ion, drafting contract clauses/solicitation provisions, and studying comparison with stated requirements, and advising and consulting on solicitation design and procurement procedures.

Business Strategy Consultants has in-depth experience with of the Government contracting process, and has provided advice and consultation to both the federal government and state and local government agencies in connection with privatization. Our consultants have provided guidance and objective reviews to assist agency personnel in preparing the documentat ion supporting and justifying decisions in the privatization area.

Business Strategy Consultants privatization support is structured based on the requirements of OMB Circular A-76 and applicable instructions and policies governing the privatization of

Government services. We have supported privatization activities from initial evaluation of candidates through development of the organization processes and, ultimately, the competitive sourcing process.

Business Strategy Consultants personnel have studied the full spectrum of assistance required to conduct management studies. These services have included organizational structure analyses, should cost and activity based cost studies, and benchmark studies of third-party individual- or enterprise-wide services. We also assist clients with selecting the candidate services/processes to be included in privatization actions by examining the possible candidates and by developing function-related entities. Through management studies, we have identified essential functions to be performed; determine performance factors; and determine organizational structure, staffing, and operating procedures. Output from these studies provides the baseline for developing the performance work statements, and cost estimates.

Privatization Project Services assist organizations to meet the challenges of the A-76 process by providing planning services that cover all aspects of the process. This service consists of identifying privatization candidates through the establishment of organization guidelines and thresholds. We also assist with the planning required to execute the A-76 process for those entities that already have been designated as candidates. The planning addresses the schedule required to complete the process, resources required, and other considerations (such as allowances for protest and appeals). We provide a template for the organization to follow in carrying out the A-76 process. When necessary, we provide organization members with the instruction and orientation necessary to familiarize these members with their roles and responsibilities during the study.

Providing Acquisition Management Support s can include the conduct of an A-76 action, which is similar to other acquisition problems. Typically, we act as an agent of the cognizant agency organization to assist with developing acquisition strategy, producing the documentation required, developing evaluation criteria, evaluating responses, and assisting with any protest or appeals documentation.

Administrative Appeals Process Assistance services include documentation support for reconstructing the acquisition or privatization process: complete history of the decisions made in reaching the MEO, assumptions about costs, requirements generating the work statements, evaluation criteria rationale, and evaluation processes. Our service is aimed at reducing an agency’s exposure to time delays and increased costs for protest/appeal actions.
