In determining whether dominance exists, consideration shall be given to all appropriate factors, including volume of business, number of employees, financial resources, competitive status or position, ownership or control of materials, processes, patents, license agreements, facilities, sales territory, and nature of business activity.

(b) If the Contractor represented that it was any of the small business concerns identified in 19.000(a)(3) prior to award of this contract, the Contractor shall rerepresent its size and socioeconomic status according to paragraph (f) of this clause or, if applicable, paragraph (h) of this clause, upon occurrence of any of the following:

(c) If the Contractor represented that it was any of the small business concerns identified in 19.000(a)(3) prior to award of this contract, the Contractor shall rerepresent its size and socioeconomic status according to paragraph (f) of this clause or, if applicable, paragraph (h) of this clause, when the Contracting Officer explicitly requires it for an order issued under a multiple-award contract.

(d) The Contractor shall rerepresent its size status in accordance with the size standard in effect at the time of this rerepresentation that corresponds to the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code(s) assigned to this contract.

Accounting and Asset Valuation Services for

Audit Readiness Initiatives

Date: 7/23/2020

PART 1

GENERAL INFORMATION

1. GENERAL: This is a non-personal services contract to provide Accounting and Asset Valuation Services for

Audit Readiness Initiatives. The Government shall not exercise any supervision or control over the contract service providers performing the services herein. Such contract service providers shall be accountable solely to the

Contractor who, in turn is responsible to the Government.

1.1 Description of Services/Introduction: The contractor shall provide all personnel, equipment, supplies, facilities, transportation, tools, materials, supervision, and other items and non-personal services necessary to perform

Accounting and Asset Valuation Services for Audit Readiness Initiatives as defined in this Performance Work

Statement except for those items specified as government furnished property and services. The contractor shall perform to the standards in this contract.

1.2 Background: The Chief Financial Officers Act of 1990 established the requirement for audits of financial statements. In 2010, the National Defense Authorization Act directed the DoD to ensure all financial statements are validated as audit-ready no later than September 30, 2017. In response, the Secretary of Defense directed the DoD to meet legal requirements in order to achieve full audit readiness on all financial statements by the end of fiscal 2017.

PFPA procured specialized accounting services in 2016 to centrally manage all actions, deliverables, and responses for the Office of the Undersecretary of Defense – Comptroller (OUSD-C) Financial Integrity/Audit Readiness

(FIAR). PFPA has determined that this requirement is enduring and is seeking accounting and asset valuation services to maintain an audit readiness status.

1.3 Objectives: The contractor will provide the following basic service objectives:

Basic Services - Support the PFPA Audit Coordinator and Accountable Property Officer in conducting and managing all audit readiness initiatives to include asset valuation, inventory accounting and general ledger tasks to ensure PFPA is ready for DoD-wide audits, to include development and presentation of related documents and briefings.

(KSD) in the logistics records. The contractor shall develop deemed costs for general equipment using approved DoD processes. The contractor shall develop and document methodology for Deemed Costs. The contractor shall determine depreciation value for assets using DoD approved processes.
