R -- OST Consulting Services

The National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA) intends to award a sole-source procurement for follow-on work to McCreight and Company. NGA has a need to procure additional consulting services in support of the NGA Office of Strategic Transformation (OST). The purpose of this effort is to gain the expertise of commercial industry in the areas of organizational strategy development and implementation. Previous work included consulting services to complete the development of NGA’s Corporate Strategy, Enterprise Operating Framework, and a Strategy Implementation Timeline and Action Plan. The proposed new work is providing recommendations and the development of the most efficient and effective E processes, and organizational changes in numerous areas of execution, e.g., financial management, business operations, business models, and performance measurements. The intellectual capital and focused knowledge to support the planning study builds upon the baseline strategy articulated in the Enterprise Operating Framework. McCreight and company was a significant contributor to this effort. McCreight is the only source that can perform these services due to their knowledge of NGA’s Strategic Intent, previous transformation plans and initiatives such as the Corporate Transformation Business Plan, and the results of the NGA Transformation Report produced by the National System for Geospatial Intelligence (NSGI) Enterprise Transformation Product Team (NETIPT), which was chartered in May 2002. Further, due to previous work performed by McCreight and Company in support of the OST they possess current knowledge of NGA’s mission, functions, business strategies, current operating construct, and understand the organization’s role with the Intelligence Community (IC) and Department of Defense. Having any other vendor perform these services would cause a delay of approximately six to nine months to the government for the new contractor to develop the technical expertise comparable to McCreight and Company. This is a synopsis of intent to award a firm fixed price contract under FAR Part 12 - Commercial Items. The authority for sole source procurement is FAR 6.302-1(a), 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(1). Responsible sources that are interested in this procurement may respond by providing clear and convincing information that identifies their ability to provide the product. All responses must be e-mailed to the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency, Attn: Christina Griffin, [email protected] by 2:00 P.M., EST, 10 February 2004. It is the responsibility of the sender to confirm if e-mails have been received.
