4.0 PRICE ADJUSTMENTS UNDER THE SERVICE CONTRACT ACT

PART II

PERFORMANCE WORK STATEMENT (PWS)

This PWS describes the support service requirements for the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), Criminal Investigation (CI) and the Department of Treasury Executive Office of Asset Forfeiture. While support services are intended to be primarily used by the IRS - CI to support its asset forfeiture program, the contract services may also be used for other law enforcement- related purposes within the purview of the organizational components identified above.

1.0 INTRODUCTION

A. The Internal Revenue Code (IRC) provides for the forfeiture of certain taxable property under the provisions of Section 7301 and the forfeiture of property intended for use in violation of the internal revenue laws under the provisions of section 7302. While forfeiture provisions were available to the enforcement personnel of the IRS, the forfeiture process was not widely used until the enactment of the Money Laundering Control Act of 1986, Public Law No. 9 100 Stat. 3207 (1986), and the Anti-Drug Abuse Act of 1988, Public Law No. 100-690, 102 Stat. 4181 (1988). These recent forfeiture provisions relate to violations of Titles 18 (money laundering, false claims or statements, general conspiracy) and 31 (Bank Secrecy Act and currency reporting requirements).

B. On October 1, 1993, the IRS became a member of the Department of the Treasury Forfeiture Fund, which was established by the Treasury Postal Appropriations Act of 1992, Public Law 102-393, 106 Stat.1729 (1992), and is codified in Title 31 of the United States Code, Section 9703. The Treasury Forfeiture Fund was created to consolidate all Treasury law enforcement organizations under a single forfeiture fund program. Although some bureaus were transferred to the Department of Homeland Security by the Homeland Security Act of 2002 (Public Law No. 107-296), they remain participants of the Treasury Forfeiture Fund. The participation of the IRS in the Treasury Forfeiture Fund relates to violations of Titles 18 and 31, but not violations of the IRC under Title 26 (Federal Income Tax Statute, especially Section 72 concerning criminal aspects).

C. Under the authority of Title 31 of the United States Code, Section 9703(a), the Department of the Treasury Forfeiture Fund is available for the purpose of contracting for services related to the seizure and forfeiture of property under the provisions of Titles 18 and 31. Contract services support may also be reimbursed from the Treasury Forfeiture Fund for the approved seizure and/or forfeiture activities of other Treasury law enforcement organizations participating in the Treasury Forfeiture Fund.

D. Other agency support services provided outside the authority of the Treasury Forfeiture Fund, all IRS seizure activity related to Title 26, non-seizure work activities performed for the IRS, and all other support services provided to other Federal law enforcement agencies or organizations, which are not participants of the Treasury Forfeiture Fund, may not be reimbursed from the Treasury Forfeiture Fund. When approved under this contract, agency support services will be requested by contract modifications and will include specific requirements, deliverables, and management reports.

2.0 OBJECTIVE

IRS, Criminal Investigation’s, Office of Warrants and Forfeiture is responsible for the management, administration, organization and tracking of all property seized and/or forfeited in accordance with Titles 18 and 31 of the US Code.

6.2 MONTHLY STATUS REPORT

The Monthly Status Report shall provide a summary and update of all significant contract actions occurring during the month reporting period. In addition, the report will include sections on Overtime expenses incurred during the reporting month and contract year to date by contractor/position/Post of Duty Location/Field Office and a section on Travel expenses incurred during the reporting month and contract year to date by contractor/position/Post of Duty Location/Field Office. Case-related Overtime and Travel expenses shall note the associated case number. Overtime and Travel expenses incurred due to training shall be noted as such.

As appropriate, the contractor shall include significant upcoming events, as known. Travel, anticipated work, problems and/or issues and their resolutions are typical of items included in the Monthly Status Report. One copy of the Monthly Status Report shall be provided to the Contracting Officer/Contract Administrator and to the COR by the fifteenth of the month following the monthly reporting period (i.e., the March’s Monthly Status Report is due April 15th).

The Monthly Status Report is the contractor’s formal notification to the COR of progress being made on the contract, and therefore the report is not limited solely to the items identified above.
