Human Capital and Training Solutions
- HCaTS is a multiple award indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity (MA-IDIQ) contract vehicles awarded on a Full and Open (unrestricted) basis. The contracts consist of a base period of five (5) years with one (1) 5-year option period, and one (1) six-month option period. Awardees consists of both small and large businesses.
The purpose of HCaTS is to meet the needs of customers with complex human capital management and training based requirements who cannot use, or find difficulty using, the MAS Schedules, or other existing acquisition vehicles for a solution. HCaTS will serve as the replacement to OPM's current TMA contract vehicle. Complex human capital management and training based requirements typically involve:
* Multiple human capital services disciplines;
* Significant IT components, but are not IT requirements;
* Ancillary support services and supplies (commonly referred to as Other Direct Costs - ODCs);
* Commercial or non commercial services, or a blend of both;
* Consideration of all Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Part 16 pricing alternatives, including fixed-price with or without incentives, cost-reimbursement (all types), Time-and-Material, Labor-Hour, or combinations of these alternatives, to fairly allocate risk between the contractor and Government, and
* Blending of all or some of the above.
Only an authorized user, who has a Delegated Procurement Authority (DPA) for HCaTS contracts may solicit, award, and administer a task order on HCaTS Contracts. Please see www.gsa.gov/hcats for details on how to obtain a DPA.
