Planned Analysis of FY 2013 Inventory

I. Background

Pursuant to Section 743(f) of Division C of the Fiscal Year (FY) 2010 Consolidated Appropriations Act, P.L. 111-117, the following planned analysis of the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) FY 2011 Service Contract Inventory is provided. Per the December 2011 guidance issued by the Office of Federal Procurement Policy (OFPP), each agency shall also submit to OFPP a planned analysis identifying which special interest functions in its FY 2013 inventory will be evaluated for analysis in FY 2014.

Based on Section B.2. of OFPP's December 2011 guidance the Commission shall submit a planned analysis identifying which special interest functions in its FY 2013 inventory will be evaluated for analysis.

II. Special Interest Functions for Evaluation

One (1) special interest function which is displayed in the table below was selected for analysis based on the critical nature of the function.

III. Rationale for Function Code Selected

Function code D301 accounted for 6% of total obligations for EEOC in FY 2012 with 100% of the obligations for this function under the Fixed Price contract type. Based on the FY 2013 inventory data, a 2% increase occurred in the percentage of dollars obligated toward small business under D301. Fourth quarter spending increased and the amount of competition decreased. Total obligations for this function code decreased by nearly $786, 303.21. Three (3) of the top four service codes based on dollars obligated in FY 2013 (i.e. D307, D399 and R799) were studied under previous analyses for Fiscal Years 2010, 2011 and 2012.
