- Full Solicitation This is a combined synopsis/solicitation for a commercial service prepared in accordance with Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Subpart 12.102 (g) and with the format in Subpart 12.6, as supplemented with additional information included in this notice. This announcement constitutes the only solicitation; Proposals are being requested and a written solicitation will not be issued. The Solicitation number is OPM3612R0002 and is issued as a Request for Proposal (RFP). This solicitation document incorporates all mandatory commercial item provisions and clauses that are in effect through Federal Acquisition Circular (FAC) 2005-60 dated August 27, 2012. The North American Industrial Classification System (NAICS) code is 611430, and the small business size standard is $7 million. This procurement is being reserved exclusively Small Businesses in accordance with FAR Part 19. The Office of Diversity & Inclusion (ODI) has major functional responsibilities to develop, drive and monitor strategies and initiatives designed to create a more diverse and inclusive Federal workforce. Promoting diversity and inclusion in the Federal workforce helps agencies recruit and retain talented individuals from all communities to reflect the people we serve and create an environment in which the best people do their best work. With shifting workplace demographics, the pipeline of talent is becoming increasingly diverse, producing more women, people with disabilities, people of color, and older workers, among many other constituencies, ready to take on a myriad of challenges. By developing a strategic focus on diversity and inclusion, agencies can hire the best talent and improve their returns on investment in the form of decreased turnover, enhanced customer and employee satisfaction, and improved quality of decision-making at all organizational levels. In support of this mission, ODI needs to acquire a contractor to provide diversity and inclusion education lectures that will enable participants to be more aware of and skillful at managing diversity and inclusion as they carry out their functional supervisory and leadership duties in their agencies. OPM anticipates awarding a Fixed Price Contract as a result of this solicitation. The Period of Performance (POP) shall be five years (base year and two (2) one-year option periods) from the date of award. Only e-mailed requests for additional information will be accepted at Vito.Bertucci@opm.gov through 3:00 PM, EST, September 14, 2012. Technical and Pricing proposals MUST be in two separate volumes. Each of the parts shall be separate and complete, so that evaluation of one may be accomplished independently of and concurrently with the evaluation of the others. If your technical and price proposal is not submitted in two separate files, your response to this solicitation will be considered non-responsive and withdrawn from consideration. Interested offerors must submit their technical and price proposals in separate files via email to: Vito.Bertucci@opm.gov by 3:00 PM Eastern Standard Time (EST), September 19, 2012.
