About this opportunity
The Department of the Treasury Bureau of the Fiscal Service has issued a Special Notice on behalf of the Corporation of National & Community Service (AmeriCorps) Office of the Inspector General announcing their intent to sole source an out-of-scope modification to an existing Blanket Purchase Agreement with Saggar & Rosenberg PC. The modification involves conducting a secondary comparative FISMA audit to assess AmeriCorps' information security system following significant staffing and resource reductions that occurred in April 2025. This work represents an expansion beyond the scope of the current BPA Call (20346425F00015) for Financial Audits and FISMA Audit Services. The original contract was competed under a multi-award BPA through GSA in accordance with FAR Part 8. Amendment 1 was issued to correct a typographical error in the contractor's name, with no other changes to terms and conditions.
The purpose of this sole source modification is to leverage Saggar & Rosenberg's existing knowledge and first-hand experience from the ongoing FY 2025 FISMA audit to conduct an additional assessment of the information security environment post-reduction, achieving significant time and cost savings. The anticipated period of performance runs from September 30, 2025, through March 4, 2026. Interested contractors must submit electronic responses by 10:00 AM EST on September 24, 2025, to purchasing@fiscal.treasury.gov, including company details, UEI number, product specifics, contract vehicle information, and capabilities statements. Submissions must be in Microsoft Office or Adobe compatible formats, with telephone inquiries and certain file types being unacceptable. The government justifies the sole source approach based on the principle that auditors typically do not work with another auditor's existing work, necessitating a fresh start that would eliminate the cost and time efficiencies available through the incumbent contractor. The government reserves the right to proceed with sole source award if no suitable alternative responses are received.

#SS-CNS-25-074
Fiscal Service Procurement, on behalf of the Corporation of National & Community Service (AmeriCorps), Office of the Inspector General (OIG) intends to modify a current Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) Call with Saggar & Rosenberg, PC, One Church Street Suite 700, Rockville, MD 20850-4158. This requirement has been determined to be an Out of Scope modification to the vendor’s current Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) Call, 20346425F00015 for Financial Audits and FISMA Audit Services.
This requirement was originally competed under a multi award BPA under GSA and in accordance with FAR Part 8. This notice is being posted in accordance with Department of Treasury deviations and recent Revolutionary FAR Overhaul changes.
The FISMA contract work evaluates the information security system of the agency at a point in time, and AmeriCorps’ FY 2025 FISMA audit was underway and assessing the environment prior to the significant April 2025 staffing and resource reduction at AmeriCorps. The OIG requires an additional assessment of the information security system as it exists now, post reduction, and any risks resulting from the April 2025 staffing and resource reductions. Saggar & Rosenberg gained knowledge and performed work during the FISMA contract that can be leveraged into significant time and cost savings in this modification. Additionally, auditors will not work with another auditor’s work, which necessitates each auditor starting each audit service from scratch. As only Saggar & Rosenberg were actively performing audit services during this time, they are the only vendor with the knowledge and first-hand experience needed to complete this secondary comparative audit service without substantiative rework.
The period of performance for the purchase order is anticipated to be from 09/30/2025 through 03/04/2026.
NO SOLICITATION IS AVAILABLE. A request for more information, or a copy of the solicitation, will not be considered an affirmative response to this Special Notice. Telephone responses or inquiries to this Special Notice will not be accepted.
Fiscal Service will consider written responses received no later than Wednesday 09/24/2025 by 10 AM (EST). Responses must be submitted electronically to purchasing@fiscal.treasury.gov, with the subject line of “Saggar & Rosenberg /Attn: MWinans/MCaplinger.
Responses must include sufficient evidence that clearly shows your company is capable of providing the content described in this notice. Responses received will be evaluated; however, a determination by the Government not to compete the proposed procurement based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. If no written response is received by the aforementioned deadline that clearly demonstrates an ability to meet all requirements, and that is more advantageous to the Government, Fiscal Service will make award on a sole source basis to Saggar & Rosenberg. Qualified Contractors must provide the following:
1. The name and location of your company, contact information, and identify your business size (Large Business, Small Business, Disadvantaged Business, 8(a), Service Disabled Veteran Owned Small Business, HUBZone, etc.). Please ensure contact information includes the name of the point of contact, email address, and telephone number, should the Government have questions regarding individual responses.
2. UEI Number.
3. Specific details of the product(s) that your company offers in regards to this notice.
4. Whether your content is available through a Government contract vehicle or Open Market.
5. A brief capabilities statement that includes a description of your company's standard line of business, as well as a list of customers to whom your company currently provides the specific required content.
The following file extensions are not allowable and application materials/data submitted with these extensions cannot be considered:
.bat, .cmd, .com, .exe, .pif, .rar, .scr, .vbs, .hta, .cpl, and .zip files.
Microsoft Office and Adobe compatible documents are acceptable.
