About this opportunity
The Export-Import Bank of the United States (EXIM Bank) has issued a Special Notice for a sole-source follow-on contract to provide asset protection and recovery services in Brazil. This is a continuation of existing recovery efforts under contract 83310125Q0033, classified under NAICS code 541110 (Offices of Lawyers) with a size standard of $15.5 million. The notice was posted on August 5, 2025, with responses due by August 25, 2025. The contract falls under Product/Service Code R418 for professional legal support services and will be performed both at EXIM Bank headquarters in Washington, D.C. and in Brazil. The contracting officer for this opportunity is Travis Finkle, who can be reached at Travis.Finkle@exim.gov.
The primary objective of this follow-on contract is to assist EXIM Bank in collecting outstanding amounts owed by obligors, buyers, and guarantors on defaulted loans in Brazil, specifically involving cases i200064/i200080/i200081/Aloes/Brazil. The contractor will be required to conduct comprehensive recovery efforts including asset searches, site visits, negotiations, litigation, documentation of agreements, and asset execution as directed by EXIM. EXIM Bank justifies the sole-source approach under FAR 16.505(2)(c) because when recovery contracts end but cases remain unresolved, awarding follow-on contracts to the original vendor ensures fairness and prevents situations where new vendors could benefit from previous vendors' work. The contractor must be a registered attorney with full knowledge of the Brazilian judicial system and capability to pursue legal actions. The contract has a five-year performance period with compensation based on a percentage of successfully collected funds, and requires detailed reporting including an initial recovery plan within 60 days and semester litigation reports.
Notice text
Synopsis – 83310125Q0033 | Claims in Brazil (Follow-on)
EXIM Bank, headquartered in Washington, D.C., is providing this notice of intent to issue a sole source follow-on award to provide asset protection and recovery services.
The applicable Product/Service Code is R418.
The applicable North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code is 541110 - Office of Lawyers, which has a size standard of $15.5M.
This requirement is to assist EXIM in its efforts to collect outstanding amounts owed to EXIM by the obligor/buyer and all guarantors, if any. These efforts will include, as EXIM may direct, asset searches, site visits, negotiations, litigation, documentation of agreements, embargoing assets and executing upon assets. See attached PWS.
When an individual AMD recovery contract ends but the recovery action is still pending resolution, we award follow-on contracts on a sole source basis to the original vendor (per FAR 16.505(2)(c)) as long as it is for the same recovery case(s). The rationale for this is the combination of contingency payment agreement and the frequent long length of the recovery process. With limited vendor availability, if we did not follow this practice, the original vendor could perform most of the work and the subsequent vendor would reap the rewards of any funds recovered. By awarding follow-on contracts in this manner, we establish fairness for the vendors in an unusual situation, retain good relations with a limited vendor pool for future needs, and therefore get the best long-term benefit to the government.
