Quick Summary

The USPS Office of Inspector General (OIG) has issued a Broad Agency Announcement (BAA) for FY2026 to solicit proposals for professional, consultant, and support services. This BAA is not subject to the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) or small business set-aside requirements. Proposals are accepted on a rolling basis, with the solicitation period ending on September 30, 2026.

Scope of Work

This BAA seeks to recruit a pre-qualified candidate pool for various OIG components, including the Office of General Counsel (OGC), Research Insight Solution Center (RISC), Office of Investigations (OI), Office of Audit (OA), Office of Chief Information Officer (OCIO), and Mission Support (MS). Specific positions include, but are not limited to, Workers Compensation Surveillance Specialist (WCSS) and Federal Certified Polygraph Examiner (FCPE) within the Office of Investigations.

Contract Details

  • Type: Broad Agency Announcement (BAA) leading to Firm-Fixed-Price (FFP), Time-and-Materials (T&M), or Labor-Hour (LH) contracts.
  • Duration: The BAA is in effect for one fiscal year (October 1 – September 30) or until replaced.
  • Set-Aside: None, as the USPS OIG is not subject to small business rules.
  • FAR Applicability: Not subject to the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR).
  • Compliance: Contractors must comply with the Vietnam Era Veterans' Readjustment Assistance Act of 1972 for contracts valued at $150,000 or more.

Submission & Evaluation

  • Proposals: Accepted on a rolling basis.
  • Deadline: The solicitation period ends on September 30, 2026, or until superseded by a new BAA.
  • Submission Requirements: Proposals should include candidate resumes, a cover letter, and proposed hourly rates or firm fixed prices. Resumes must address evaluation criteria. Electronic submissions are encouraged to fafrasiabi@uspsoig.gov.
  • Evaluation: Based on technical merit and best value determination. A decision is expected within 30 calendar days of receipt. Proposed hourly rates exceeding the Not-to-Exceed (NTE) rate will be rejected.

Key Updates

This BAA has been amended multiple times. Amendment 004 (posted 2026-06-10) supersedes prior versions, removing the Contract Fraud Analyst (CFA) position and adding the Federal Certified Polygraph Examiner (FCPE) position description to Attachment 3 (Office of Investigations). Previous amendments updated duty locations for the WCSS and added the CFA position (later removed).

Additional Notes

Prior fiscal year BAA proposals deemed acceptable do not need to be resubmitted for the same position. Travel reimbursement is generally not authorized unless specified in position descriptions.
