Market Survey-Voluntary Safety Reporting Program Support Services Market_Survey_VSRP_Support_Services

The purpose of this Market Survey is to improve the Government's understanding of the current marketplace and to identify capable sources. This Market Survey is also being conducted in order to obtain the information necessary to determine whether adequate competition exists to set-aside any competition among the small business socioeconomic categories. Responses to this Market Survey will be used for informational purposes only to support the development of a strategy for the Federal Aviation Administration s (FAA s) contemplated Voluntary Safety Reporting Program (VSRP) Support acquisition and will not be released. This is not a Screening Information Request or Request for Proposal. The continuing mission of the FAA is to provide the safest most efficient aerospace system in the world. Within the FAA, the Air Traffic Organization (ATO) is responsible for ensuring the safe, expeditious flow of air traffic throughout the National Airspace System (NAS). VSRPs are a key component of the ATO Safety Management System (SMS), providing a method to identify and correct potential safety hazards. These important programs encourage voluntarily submitted safety reports from employees involved in the delivery of air traffic services and are foundational to a healthy safety culture. The FAA is currently working to modernize and transform these VSRPs and the platforms on which they reside while continuing to maintain critical day-to-day VSRP functions and activities. The FAA has a requirement for contractor support for the ATO s VSRP and ongoing VSRP modernization and transformation to include: Providing technical expertise in support of Event Review Committees including developing PowerPoint presentations, compiling sources events, and completing a preliminary review of VSRP report listings; Providing support for software and tools development, design, maintenance, integration, and implementation; Maintaining current VSRP systems and reporting tools; Maintaining FAA s confidential data and securing and maintaining all activities associated with the management of databases; and Creating and updating dashboards and other reporting tools in support of reviewing VSRP activities and outcomes. This work will support FAA efforts to identify safety concerns in order to utilize information received to identify risk and develop corrective actions. Included as Attachment A to this announcement is the draft Statement of Work (SOW) for the VSRP Support acquisition. The FAA requests responses from industry to include the following: Capability Statement: Responders must provide a Capability Statement that addresses the following: Address your firm s capability to meet the requirements listed in the Draft SOW (Attachment A).
