International Asset Recovery (IAR)

The Department of Justice Justice Management Division is conducting a sources sought notice for International Asset Recovery support services, with responses due by May 14, 2026 at 12:00 PM Eastern Time. The procurement does not carry a set-aside. The Government seeks a single-award contract to provide comprehensive asset recovery support to the Department of Justice, Department of Treasury, and Department of Homeland Security, covering investigative agencies, prosecutors, and the United States Marshals Service for cases involving assets located outside the United States and its territories.

Services span investigative support (detailed record analysis, financial tracing, business valuation), litigation support (records examination, financial analysis, translation, document management, asset valuations, legal analysis of foreign laws), expert witness services (analyzing property interests under foreign laws), international sharing program services, and property management (pre-seizure coordination, consignment and acceptance, storage, maintenance, disposition, sales, and accounting). The contract anticipates handling approximately five to seven international asset recovery cases annually with varying scope and complexity.

The base period is 12 months with four optional 12-month periods. The Government anticipates requesting capabilities to handle seizure and forfeiture activities and property custody in various forms (regular, administrative, pending inventory, and agency custody), with disposition through destruction, remittance, retention, transfer, or sales using multiple methodologies.

Responses are limited to ten pages and must address staff expertise, current capabilities, prior completed projects, corporate experience, management capability, SAM UEI number, organization information, and points of contact. Submit electronically to Sally Ibrahim, Contracting Officer, at sally.s.ibrahim@usdoj.gov.
