- Description
- The U.S. Department of Commerce (DOC), National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), Eastern Region Acquisitions Division-Kansas City office intends to award, on a sole source basis, under the authority of FAR 13.106-1(b)(1), with�McKinsey & Company, 1200 19th St NW Suite 1100, Washington, DC� 20036-2412 for an Organizational Health and Culture Assessment for the National Weather Service (NWS) in Silver Spring, MD. Sole Source Justification The National Weather Service has previously used the Organizational Health Index (OHI), a proprietary assessment tool from McKinsey & Company in 2015, 2017, and 2020. The NWS based the past 7 years of their NWS culture work on the results of this survey. �NWS also developed two consecutive Organizational Health Action Plans tied to the results of the OHI surveys and associated Federal Employee Viewpoint Survey. �In order to benchmark and do a comparison of their new results to previous results, NWS must conduct the same survey from the same contractor as previous years.� If the NWS is unable to use the same contractor, they would be unable to compare survey results to previous results and would be unable to gauge the correct focus areas.� Moreover, without using the same contractor and services, the progress and validation made would be lost and additional money, time, and resources would be required to re-accomplish the last 7 years of work. Focusing on inaccurate areas would allow for additional problems to surface that could have been avoided through benchmarking. Special Notice This is the only notice to be posted.� This special notice is not a request for competitive offers and no solicitation package is available. However, firms that believe they can provide the needed Organizational Health and Culture Assessment may submit substantiating documentation in writing within the open period of this notice.� Responses can be sent via e-mail to shelley.neubert@noaa.gov. Documentation will be evaluated solely for the purpose of determining whether or not to conduct this procurement on a competitive basis. A determination by the Government not to conduct a competitive procurement, based upon response to this notice, is solely within the discretion of the Government. Oral communications are not acceptable in response to this notice. If no documentation is received, award will be made directly to McKinsey & Company.� DOC, Eastern Region Acquisition Division requires that all contractors doing business with this office be registered with the System for Award Management (SAM). No award can be made to a company not registered in SAM. For additional information and to register in SAM, please access the following web site: www.sam.gov.
