Acquisition Services are required across the continental US. Services required, and the support thereof, include, but are not limited to, acquisition and administration of contracts for supplies, services, spares, repair and maintenance, research development and evaluation and construction in support of NAS facilities. In addition, AAQ has a requirement for contract support to assist AAQ customers in preparing their up-front acquisition documentation in compliance with established acquisition policy and procedures. Contract support is also needed to provide Cost/Pricing Support for FAA Contracting Officers (COs) and Contract Specialists (CSs). The purpose of this contract is to provide support to AAQ to facilitate the completion of the growing acquisition workload across the FAA. This PWS provides for professional acquisition support disciplines. This contract does not provide for Contractor employees to perform inherently governmental duties such as obligating funds or executing contractual documents. The Contractor will be required to perform functions in accordance with (IAW) the FAA’s acquisition policies, guidance, and practices and unique FAA business processes subject to DOT/FAA policies, executive orders, organizational-level work instructions, and other applicable guidance and policies that impact the FAA procurement activities. Both DOT and FAA orders govern policy and procedures inclusive and exclusive of the acquisition process. AAQ provides acquisition services in support of all FAA activities, policies, guidance and practices.
