While this work may not be considered the most interesting, the opportunity to actually compete for this 5-year contract to provide the Department of Homeland Security US Customs and Border Protection with support services to address the surge in all types of FOIA requests received – “simple” and “complex” – as well as to process records for requests that are in litigation or backlogged, will draw a lot of interest.
The longtime incumbent on this contract is Wits Solutions Inc (WITS), who has been supporting this office as a Prime since at least 2017. WITS was recently awarded a short term 8(a) sole source contract- spend to date and award details can be found here (70B06C24F00000099).
A focus for this effort is to evaluate and process CBP records in response to FOIA requests and prepare documents for final release to FOIA requesters. As a subset to this work will be to provide litigation support services to address document production requirements. The CBP Privacy division requires support to assist in various administrative tasks that do not require subject matter expertise in privacy laws and policies. These administrative tasks are generally customer facing.
As it stands now, the RFP is expected to be released in late March as an 8(a) set-aside action on GSA schedule – NAICS 541611. We would expect to see companies working over the next weeks to influence the acquisition strategy.
More will be shared as it is made available.
