US Fish & Wildlife Services, Region 9 Contracting and General Services intends to issue a sole source, firm-fixed price order to: COMPANY: International Association of Chiefs of Police (IACP) ON: June 08, 2012 NAICS: AB12 R&D-CRIME PREVENT & CONT-A RES/EXPL AUTHORITY: 13.106(b) Soliciting from a single source Determinations not to compete this proposed procurement were made because: A Sole Source award to the International Association of Chiefs of Police (IACP) worked with the National Wildlife Refuge System (NWRS) in 2003 and 2004 to develop a Deployment Model for estimating the number of law enforcement staff needed at refuges. The result was a statistical model that, properly updated with demographic and activity data, could systematically generate appropriate law enforcement staffing by refuge or refuge complex. The recommendations of GAO Report-11-144, related to risk based assessments and deployment of law enforcement resources on Federal lands have a completion deadline of Dec. 31, 2012. As such, the Division of Refuge Law Enforcement (DRLE) has negotiated a prospectus with the International Association of Chiefs of Police (IACP - Attached) to assist in the development of law enforcement risk assessments of each unit of the National Wildlife Refuge System (NWRS), creation of a Threat Assessment and Threat Matrix, and a Restructure and Enhancement of the 2004 IACP Deployment Model for the NWRS. The 2004 IACP Deployment Model, although excellent for its time, has become outdated, and in some cases irrelevant to some units of the NWRS. Seven new National Wildlife Refuges have been added to the System since 2004. Contracting Office Address: Contracting and Facilities Management - R9 U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service 4301 N.
