About this opportunity
The Department of Commerce Office of the Secretary issued a Request for Information (RFI) on June 10, 2022, seeking industry input on Advisory and Integrated Management Solutions (AIMS), a management consulting service to support executive-level management and program/project managers across the Department of Commerce. The procurement will cover strategic planning, organizational design, process improvement, program analysis, evaluations, and data analytics services across multiple functional areas including Human Resources, Acquisitions, Financial Management, Information Technology, Facilities Management, and Security Management. Respondents are required to submit a 15-page capability statement addressing their ability to fulfill Performance Work Statement requirements, including specific work products, potential subcontracting plans, and performance risk mitigation strategies. The Government will evaluate submissions based on vendors' qualifications, technical approach, and recommendations for the acquisition strategy. Key dates include June 21, 2022 at 10:00 AM Eastern Time for submitting questions and July 8, 2022 at 10:00 AM Eastern Time for submitting complete RFI responses, with an amendment issued on June 23, 2022 providing vendor questions and answers.
This RFI contains no set-aside designation, and no current contractor or incumbent information is identified in the available documents. The anticipated acquisition strategy is a multiple award Blanket Purchase Agreement against GSA Federal Supply Schedules or an open market multiple award Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity contract, with the Government anticipating robust small business participation to assess opportunities for potential small business set-asides. The contract will have a five-year period of performance from February 1, 2023 to March 31, 2028, consisting of a base period and four option periods. Services will support nine Department of Commerce bureaus with full mission contracting support and five additional bureaus for department-wide initiatives. No specific budget range or award value is disclosed in the RFI, and the Government emphasizes that this RFI does not guarantee the release of a future solicitation and will not result in an award.
