Type of Contract:Time-and-material (T&M) with 1 Base Year and 4 1-year Option Year Periods. More than one award may be made from this solicitation. 1.Introduction and Background Millennium Challenge Corporation (MCC)'s mission is to provide grant assistance to support economic growth and poverty reduction in select developing countries with a demonstrated commitment to just and democratic governance, economic freedom, and investments in their citizenry. MCC's partner countries enter into a five-year agreement (Compact) with MCC that includes a plan for achieving shared development objectives and the responsibilities of each country in achieving those objectives. Our model is defined by core principles, of selectivity, country ownership, transparency, and a focus on results. Our values identify who we are and what is important to us. Our Values are CLEAR: Embrace Collaboration, Always Learn, Practice Excellence, Be Accountable and Respect individuals and ideas. MCC's values define how we behave on a daily basis, both as individuals and as an institution, in pursuit of our mission. They guide how we make decisions, set priorities, address challenges, manage tradeoffs, recruit and develop staff, and work together with our country partners and stakeholders. This position located in the Office of the Vice President (Front Office) within the Department of Administration and Finance (A&F). A&F provides critical mission support by planning and directing the following areas in support of MCC's mission: financial management and budgeting; human resources management; information technology infrastructure, resource, and website management; procurement and acquisition; domestic and international security; facilities management; administrative services; and corporate records management. 2.Scope of Position The A&F Front Desk is seeking a full-time PSC to serve as an Executive Assistant to develop and provide administrative support services to A&F Vice President (VP) and Deputy Vice President (DVP). The PSC will report to the VP and DVP. The contractor shall work with A&F staff in Washington, DC and apply administrative processes and procedures to enable a smooth operation of the A&F. The position is at MCC headquarters in Washington, DC. This position is not authorized to supervise any Federal employees. 3.Personal Services Contract MCC is authorized to enter into a contract with an individual as a Personal Services Contractor (PSC) under the authority of Section 614(a) (8) of the Millennium Challenge Act of 2003. A personal services contract is different from non-personal services Government contract, which establishes an independent contract relationship. Under a non-personal services contract, the contractor or employees of the contractor are subject to the technical direction but not the supervision of the MCC. As defined by the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 37.104, a personal services contract is characterized by the employer-employee relationship it creates between the Government and the contractor personnel. Thus, the PSC is subject to the relatively continuous technical direction, supervision, and control of the MCC. PSCs may be assigned inherently governmental duties (see FAR 7.502). By law and by the contract's terms, the PSC is subject to most of the laws, rules and regulations applicable to the direct hire employee such as MCC regulations, conflict of interest, under some circumstances MCC authorized employment security clearances and financial disclosure.
