- Description
- The U.S. Department of Agriculture, Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) is seeking assistance from private sector individuals, firms, entities, and/or public agencies (non-federal) to assist them with the implementation of the Environmental Quality Incentives Program (EQIP). The purpose of EQIP is to promote agricultural production and environmental quality as compatible goals. The program provides assistance to producers to comply with local, state, and national regulatory requirements concerning soil, water, air, wildlife habitat, and surface and groundwater conservation. The program requires the agency to make eligibility determinations, rank eligible applicants, and develop a Long Term Agreement (LTA) for each successful applicant. To improve the program delivery to NRCS customers, the agency is seeking assistance within our USDA Service Centers. The field support needed is administrative assistance that includes developing an applicant file, tracking application paperwork, data entry into Customer Service Toolkit, contract development and maintenance, progress reporting into Performance Results Management System (PRMS), and other local administrative functions. The Wisconsin NRCS State Office is seeking through this notice, potential private sector individuals, firms, entities, and/or public agencies (non-federal) to provide this assistance in cooperation with the agency. If you believe that you can furnish the desired administrative functions you are encouraged to give written notice to the Contracting Officer. Successful applicants may be required to provide additional proof of licensing, certification(s), and bonding for contracted activities. If an individual, firm, entity, and/or public agency (non-federal) wish to provide this assistance, they are encouraged to state this in their response to this solicitation. This Project will be Performance Based with minimal specifications and drawings. Proposals from contractors will be evaluated on Technical Capability, Personnel Qualifications, Past Performance and Price. This is a "Sources Sought Notice". A separate "Request for Proposal" will be advertised for each of the four NRCS administrative areas in Wisconsin as soon as funding becomes available and surplus workload areas are identified.
