- Description
- The Internal Revenue Service plans to issue a Request for Proposals (RFP) in support of the Department of the Treasury and its bureaus, to include the IRS; and other federal agencies for the Total Information Processing Support Services-3 (TIPSS-3) procurement. This solicitation will provide a continuation of the broad range of Information Technology related services provided by the initial Treasury Information Processing Support Services contracts. It is anticipated that TIPSS-3 will result in multiple awards, with an array of contract types: indefinite-delivery-indefinite-quantity, cost-plus-fixed-fee, fixed price and time-and-materials featuring term, completion and performance-based Task Orders. TIPSS-3 will provide for a wide range of information processing support services consisting of three Task Areas: (1) Information Systems Services; (2) System Security Services (SSS); and (3) Strategic Business Services (SBS). TIPSS-3 will be conducted as a full and open competition with a partial small business set-aside (SBSA) portion. All businesses who elect to compete under the unrestricted portion of the full and open competition must submit a proposal for the primary task area of Information Systems task area and may submit a proposal for any or all of the two other task areas. Small Business Offerors who submit a proposal under the partial small business set-aside shall submit a proposal for any or all of the three task areas. For the SBSA portion, it is anticipated that at least one award will be made to the following sized firms: small business, 8(a), HUBZone and Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned. The SBSA contracts will be awarded Task Orders estimated at $100,000 or less. Large Business Offerors and Small Business Offerors, who elect to compete under the full and open competition, shall provide evidence of process maturity in accordance with the IRS Policy and Procedure 39.1(b) Capability Maturity Model? (CMM?) for software development through the submission of Standard CMMI Appraisal Method for Process Improvement SM (SCAMPI SM) Class A results. It is mandatory that all Offerors who are awarded Task Orders for any activity related to software development for the IRS comply with the IRS policy for Capability Maturity Model Integration SM (CMMI?) compliance. The CMMI? submissions will be due November 29, 2004. Offerors proposing under the Partial Small Business Set-Aside (SBSA) have two options: (1) SBSA Offerors may validate their SEI SM CMMI? Level 2 status by providing the same CMMI? information required for proposing under the full and open competition; or alternatively, SBSA Offerors may choose to defer validation of their SEI SM CMMI? Level 2 status until after contract award. The NAICS Code for this acquisition is 541512. The small business size standard pertaining to the NAICS Code is: the average annual receipts of the concerns and its affiliates of the previous 3 fiscal years must not exceed $21 million. The awarded contracts will be for one year with four one-year options. Most of the work will be performed within the Washington, D.C. Metropolitan area. Other performance locations include all of the United States, its territories and occasionally locations throughout the world. The exact location will be specified on the individual task orders. All solicitation documents will be available at the internet at www. procurement.irs.treas.gov.
