Interior Business Center (IBC), in an effort to determine the cost and feasibility of having the Nuclear Regulatory Commissions (NRCs) human capital operational functions performed by DOI/IBC, a shared service provider. | |||
2.0 OBJECTIVE The objective of this gap analysis is for NRC to have a greater understanding of the scope of work and associated costs of DOI/IBC performing the NRCs human capital operational functions under a shared service arrangement. | |||
3.0 SCOPE OF WORK/TASKS DOI/IBC must provide all resources necessary to accomplish the tasks and deliverables described in this Statement of Work (SOW). DOI/IBC must provide a comprehensive gap analysis that identifies the differences between NRCs current HR operations services and DOI/IBC's HR operations services. DOI/IBC's HR service delivery model provides Federal agencies high quality, cost-effective and streamlined HR services in an all-inclusive model while fully utilizing automated processes and HR systems in the following areas: | |||
Ta le nt Acquis ition P os ition Cla s s ifica tion Employe e Re la tions La bor Re la tions Fe de ra l Be ne fits HR S ys te ms Adminis tra tion The Gap Analysis is typically a 2-day meeting conducted onsite at NRC between the DOI/IBC and NRC stakeholders involved with managing and delivering HR operations services. The purpose of the meeting is: | |||
(for DOI/IBC) to gain an understanding of the NRCs mission and HR needs Page 4 of 10 | |||
Version Control Date: September 23, 2016 discuss and document differences between current HR operations services and DOI/IBC's HR operations services discuss roles and responsibilities discuss assumptions and constraints discuss NRCs agency policies ensure NRCs clear understanding of DOI/IBC's HR service delivery model DOI/IBC assumes NRCs HR servicing needs and requirements are based upon current systems and processes, i.e. "as-is" state. The Gap Analysis effort will not involve business process reengineering activities beyond the extent that it is determined DOI/IBC's systems or processes are different than NRCs current systems or processes and the NRC systems or processes would change as a result of migrating HR operations services from current provider to DOI/IBC. Requirements and analysis defined beyond the existing systems and processes are beyond the scope of the proposed work for the analysis. | |||
The | Depending upon the outcome of the analysis, DOI/IBC or NRC may determine the differences (i.e., systems, rules, regulations, business processes, unique client needs) are too great for the DOI/IBC to address and that a migration is not feasible, regardless of costs. Completion of the Gap Analysis in no way guarantees DOI/IBC can migrate NRC to DOI/IBC's HR servicing support. | ||
4.0 LIST OF DELIVERABLES The deliverables for the Gap Analysis will be: | |||
Acomprehensive Gap Analysis document identifying the following: | |||
* Differences between current HR operations services and DOI/IBC's HR operations services | |||
* Business process changes that will be required and/or recommended if a migration was agreed upon | |||
* Potential challenges if a migration was agreed upon | |||
* Action items that would result for both NRC and DOI/IBC if a migration was agreed upon | |||
* Cost estimates for the following: | |||
* Migrating HR operations services to DOI/IBC | |||
* Initial year of DOI/IBC HR operations services (depending on date of implementation, this may be a pro-rated cost) | |||
* One full year of continued DOI/IBC HR operations services Page 5 of 10 | |||
Version Control Date: September 23, 2016 Subsequent to the Gap Analysis, DOI/IBC would hold a joint review session with NRC to review the Gap Analysis deliverables. The purpose of the review session will be to discuss and come to a mutual agreement regarding next steps. | |||

Version Control Date: September 23, 2016 DESCRIPTION/SPECIFICATIONS/WORK STATEMENT (Interagency Agreement)
1.0 BACKGROUND
The Office of the Chief Human Resources (OHR), Human Resources Operations and Policy (HROP), is requesting the conduct of a gap analysis by the Department of the Interior (DOI),
Interior Business Center (IBC), in an effort to determine the cost and feasibility of having the Nuclear Regulatory Commissions (NRCs) human capital operational functions performed by DOI/IBC, a shared service provider.
2.0 OBJECTIVE The objective of this gap analysis is for NRC to have a greater understanding of the scope of work and associated costs of DOI/IBC performing the NRCs human capital operational functions under a shared service arrangement.
3.0 SCOPE OF WORK/TASKS DOI/IBC must provide all resources necessary to accomplish the tasks and deliverables described in this Statement of Work (SOW). DOI/IBC must provide a comprehensive gap analysis that identifies the differences between NRCs current HR operations services and DOI/IBC's HR operations services. DOI/IBC's HR service delivery model provides Federal agencies high quality, cost-effective and streamlined HR services in an all-inclusive model while fully utilizing automated processes and HR systems in the following areas:
Ta le nt Acquis ition P os ition Cla s s ifica tion Employe e Re la tions La bor Re la tions Fe de ra l Be ne fits HR S ys te ms Adminis tra tion The Gap Analysis is typically a 2-day meeting conducted onsite at NRC between the DOI/IBC and NRC stakeholders involved with managing and delivering HR operations services. The purpose of the meeting is:
(for DOI/IBC) to gain an understanding of the NRCs mission and HR needs Page 4 of 10
Version Control Date: September 23, 2016 discuss and document differences between current HR operations services and DOI/IBC's HR operations services discuss roles and responsibilities discuss assumptions and constraints discuss NRCs agency policies ensure NRCs clear understanding of DOI/IBC's HR service delivery model DOI/IBC assumes NRCs HR servicing needs and requirements are based upon current systems and processes, i.e. "as-is" state. The Gap Analysis effort will not involve business process reengineering activities beyond the extent that it is determined DOI/IBC's systems or processes are different than NRCs current systems or processes and the NRC systems or processes would change as a result of migrating HR operations services from current provider to DOI/IBC. Requirements and analysis defined beyond the existing systems and processes are beyond the scope of the proposed work for the analysis.
Depending upon the outcome of the analysis, DOI/IBC or NRC may determine the differences (i.e., systems, rules, regulations, business processes, unique client needs) are too great for the DOI/IBC to address and that a migration is not feasible, regardless of costs. Completion of the Gap Analysis in no way guarantees DOI/IBC can migrate NRC to DOI/IBC's HR servicing support.
4.0 LIST OF DELIVERABLES The deliverables for the Gap Analysis will be:
Acomprehensive Gap Analysis document identifying the following:
- Business process changes that will be required and/or recommended if a migration was agreed upon
- Potential challenges if a migration was agreed upon
- Action items that would result for both NRC and DOI/IBC if a migration was agreed upon
- Cost estimates for the following:
- Migrating HR operations services to DOI/IBC
- Initial year of DOI/IBC HR operations services (depending on date of implementation, this may be a pro-rated cost)
- One full year of continued DOI/IBC HR operations services Page 5 of 10
Version Control Date: September 23, 2016 Subsequent to the Gap Analysis, DOI/IBC would hold a joint review session with NRC to review the Gap Analysis deliverables. The purpose of the review session will be to discuss and come to a mutual agreement regarding next steps.
Task Deliverable and Acceptance Criteria Deliverable Due Date Number Format 1 IBC & NRC attend Gap Analysis Meeting May 15-16, 2018 Session 2 IBC delivers identified comprehensive See below** NLT 14 business Gap Analysis document to NRC for days after review Gap Analysis session complete 3 IBC & NRC perform joint review session Teleconference NLT 7 business via telephone days after Gap Analysis document delivered to NRC 4 IBC & NRC approve identified Gap Meeting/ NLT 7 business Analysis documents Teleconference/ or days after joint E-mail Gap Analysis Review Session 5 IBC delivers Gap Analysis results to See below** NLT 7 business NRC to include estimated cost for days after approval migration, approved list of process of Gap Analysis changes, estimated schedule for documents implementation and any identified risks to the project
- Deliverables will be formatted in Microsoft Word, Excel, PDF, or Project.
If a schedule slippage occurs due to the unavailability of NRC resources at agreed upon tasks, milestones, or decision points, the DOI/IBC project manager will document the event and adjust the period of performance in coordination with the NRC project manager.
All tasks will be documented to include a narrative on the process and information gained from discussions with NRC, through analysis and evaluation of current practices, policies and procedures. Conflicting items will be identified for resolution and approaches will be recommended for their resolution, to the extent to which the requirements or items can be Page 6 of 10
Version Control Date: September 23, 2016 resolved. In the cases where no resolution is identified, a recommended work-around may be provided.
NRC will have twenty (20) business days to complete its review of the final Gap Analysis document deliverable. Acceptance of the final deliverable will be determined by either written acceptance (email is satisfactory) from the NRC Project Manager or the expiration of 20 business days from the receipt of the deliverable. In the event of a rejection of any deliverable, DOI/IBC will be notified in writing (email is acceptable), giving the specific reason(s) for rejection. DOI/IBC will have ten (10) business days to correct the rejected deliverable and redeliver to the NRC for review and acceptance. Expected durations are to be considered business days (excludes weekends and Federal holidays).
4.1 NRC Responsibilities NRC is the key stakeholder in this process; accurate information sharing will contribute to a thorough Gap Analysis and assessment of migration risks. NRC will provide the following resources to support the Gap Analysis:
Age ncy S pons or a nd/or P roje ct Ma na ge r S ubje ct m a tte r e xpe rt(s ) in the full range of NRCs HR processes S ubje ct m a tte r e xpe rt(s ) in NRC s ma na ge rs ' a nd s upe rvis ors ' role s a nd responsibilities related to HR processes S ubje ct m a tte r e xpe rt(s ) in NRC s a ge ncy policie s Budge t point of conta ct with e xpe rtis e in NRC s budge t procedures (necessary to explore financial system impacts resulting from change in Servicing Personnel Office)
NRC stakeholders will attend two (2) days of Gap Analysis sessions and potential follow up teleconference discussions, depending upon requirements and gaps discovered during the session.
IBC understands there may be a need to work with contractors acting on behalf of the NRC.
However, being a government entity, the NRC will be the formal decision making body on all decisions.
The roles and responsibilities for NRC and IBC's staff will be clearly stated for each activity involved with the analysis.
NRC will provide notification of any changes in points of contact information or changes in job responsibilities.

Version Control Date: September 23, 2016 5.0 ESTIMATED LABOR CATEGORIES, KEY PERSONNEL AND LEVELS OF EFFORT DOI/IBC shall provide personnel with skill in interpreting and applying appropriate Federal laws, regulations, policies, procedures, and guidelines in the human resources functional areas of recruitment and placement, classification, employee relations, performance management, workforce planning, and employee benefits.
5.1 Labor Categories, Requirements and Key Personnel. Personnel working under this agreement/order shall meet the minimum requirements for experience and education, as follows [Insert the qualifications for all personnel, i.e., years working in nuclear field/industry; at least masters degree engineering discipline; professional certification or license; knowledge of risk assessments, power plant operations and systems, and severe accidents; etc. or by labor category - see example table below.]
Labor Category Position Minimum Requirements Key Personnel*
(yes or no) 5.2 Level-of-Effort (in hours). Estimate the number of hours required for each labor category, including base and option periods. This estimate is advisory only and not to be considered as the sole basis for development of a staffing plan. [Insert labor categories and LOE requirements based on labor categories in IGCE as applicable to this effort]
Indicate the types of positions (e.g., geologist, nuclear engineer, etc.) and levels of expertise (i.e., senior, mid-level, junior, etc.) and corresponding labor hours needed. Identify which labor categories are considered key personnel You may provide suggested labor categories and corresponding LOE estimates for informational purposes, but the DOE Laboratory should retain the ability to propose what it considers to be adequate personnel, personnel mix, and labor to accomplish the requirement.
If the DOE Laboratory has performed the tasks previously, it may be prudent not to provide the CORs estimate in the SOW in order to see the DOE Laboratorys unbiased independent estimate based on its knowledge of the project.

ATTACHMENT 2 NRC GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS (GT&C) FOR INTERAGENCY AGREEMENTS (IAA)
General Guidance Note: If the Order(s) issued pursuant to the GT&Cs will be fully funded you may delete Clause 5, Limitation of Funds. However, by including it in multiple Order IAAs, NRC has the option to incrementally fund future orders.
- 1. Technical Direction The NRC Contracting Officers Representative (COR), as named in the NRC SOW, is responsible for ensuring that the services required under this project are delivered in accordance with the terms of the SOW. All technical direction instructions to the Servicing agency must be issued through the COR.
Technical direction includes interpreting technical specifications, providing needed details, and suggesting possible lines of inquiry. Technical direction must not constitute new work or affect overall project cost or period of performance. Technical direction must be confirmed in writing to the servicing agency with a copy provided to the cognizant NRC Contracting Officer (CO).
- 2. Key Personnel The individual(s) identified as key personnel is (are) considered essential to the successful performance of the work. The servicing agency agrees that these personnel shall not be removed from the project or replaced without complying with the following:
- If one or more of the key personnel, for whatever reason, becomes or is expected to become unavailable for work under this IAA for a continuous period exceeding 30 workdays, or is expected to devote substantially less effort to the work than indicated in the proposal or initially anticipated, the servicing agency shall immediately notify the NRC CO of its intent to make key personnel replacements.
- All requests for approval of substitutions on a project shall be in writing and shall provide detailed explanation of the circumstances necessitating the proposed substitutions. The request shall contain a complete résumé for the proposed substitute and other information requested by the NRC CO to approve or disapprove the proposed substitution. The NRC will evaluate such requests and promptly notify the servicing agency of its approval or disapproval thereof in writing.
- The project may be terminated if the NRC determines that:
o Suitable and timely replacements of key personnel who have been reassigned, terminated, or have otherwise become unavailable for the project are not reasonably forthcoming.
o The resultant reduction of effort or expertise would be so substantial as to impair the successful completion of the work order.
ATTACHMENT 2
- 3. Billing Requirements Servicing agency shall bill NRC monthly for costs paid in support of NRC projects by the agreement number. The servicing agency shall bill and collect from NRC by an electronic transfer of funds through the U.S. Treasury Intergovernmental Payment and Collection System (IPAC).
The servicing agency voucher shall identify the NRC agreement number, and the NRC and servicing agency budget and reporting (B&R) numbers.
The servicing agency voucher, at a minimum, shall indicate the month that costs were incurred and the dollar amount of these costs. In some instances because of accrual accounting and other adjustments, the amounts may differ slightly from the original accrual amount.
When the Status Report costs differ from the amount billed, servicing agency shall provide an explanation of the difference on the voucher.
The servicing agency voucher shall be sent to support the IPAC funds transfer. The instructions must identify the billable activities as specified by 10 CFR Part 170. The servicing agency voucher and other required documentation shall be submitted to NRC Payments U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission One White Flint North 11555 Rockville Pike Mailstop O3-E17A Rockville, MD 20852-2738 Electronic Commercial Vendor and IPAC Payments:

- 4. Status Reports The servicing agency shall submit a Status Report in accordance with the SOW and the Status Report Requirements, if attached to the SOW, to the NRC CO and NRC COR with a copy to the Office of Administration/Acquisition Management Division to ContractsPOT.Resource@nrc.gov.
- 5. Organizational Conflict of Interest By submitting a proposal to the NRC, the servicing agency acknowledges the disclosure requirements of: 1) the NRC Clause, the NRC Conflict of Interest, Management Directive 11.8; and 2) that Section 170A of the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended, requires that NRC be provided with disclosures on potential conflicts when NRC obtains technical, consulting, research and other supporting services. The servicing agency further recognizes that the assignment of NRC work to the servicing agency must satisfy NRCs organizational conflict of interest (OCOI) standards.
ATTACHMENT 2 Therefore, the servicing agency, in its proposal to NRC (which will be incorporated into an interagency agreement between NRC and the servicing agency), is required to make an assertion per #1 or #2 of Part A below. If the servicing agency selects #1, then, it must also fill out the accompanying Part B - whereby the servicing agency must, again, make an assertion by answering each of the five (5) NRC OCOI provisions per the NRC Acquisition Regulation (NRCAR).
PART A:
"In accordance with Office of Personnel Management (OPM) role in, and responsibility for, disclosing its relationships with organizations which conduct business in the same and/or similar technical area as described by the present and/or ongoing NRC project's scope of work, and in accordance with the NRC clause as stated herein, OPM hereby asserts that it has examined its relationships with all such organizations, and has also examined its current and future/planned work, and where appropriate, its past work (generally for the previous five years), for other organizations and OPM states the following:

- Organization affiliate - Business concerns which are affiliates (related) to each other when either directly or indirectly, one concern or individual controls or has the power to control another, or when a third party (i.e. parent firm) has the power to control both.
- The Atomic Energy Act of 1952 uses the term person to mean any entity - e.g., sole proprietorship, partnership, joint venture, corporation; university; limited partnership, subchapter S corporation; limited liability company, etc.
- 6. Incompatibility Between Regular Duties and Private Interests (a) Employees of the servicing agencys contractor shall not be permitted to make or influence any decision on behalf of the contractor which directly or indirectly affect the interest of the Government, if the employees personal concern in the matter may be incompatible with the interest of the Government. For example: An employee of a contractor will not negotiate, or influence the award of, a subcontract with a company in which the individual has employment relationship or significant financial interest; and an employee of a contractor will not be assigned the preparation of an evaluation for the servicing agency for any technical aspect of the work of another organization with which the individual has an employment relationship, or significant financial interest, or which is a competitor of an organization (other than the contractor who is the individuals regular employer) in which the individual has an employment relationship or significant financial interest.
(b) The contractor shall be responsible for informing employees that they are expected to disclose any incompatibilities between duties performed for the contractor and their private interests and to refer undecided questions to the contractor.
- 7. Intellectual Property Rights The statutory, regulatory, and procedural intellectual property policies of servicing agency will be applicable to the work falling under this work order
- Provided that information concerning disclosures of inventions identified as having been conceived or first actually reduced to practice under Commission-funded work will be reported to the Commission, and the Commission will be kept advised as to their status.
ATTACHMENT 2
- Except that the Commission reserves the right to control title to inventions as to any rights that vest in the Commission under statute. If servicing agency and servicing agency's contractor, where the contractor has such rights, should determine not to protect these inventions either domestically or abroad, the Commission will have the right to protect these inventions.
- Provided that if the technology covered by an invention disclosure upon which the servicing agency intends to file a patent application on behalf of the U.S. Government is deemed by the Commission to fall within the Commissions mission, that is, when the technology relates to nuclear facilities and materials safety, safeguards, and environmental protection in support of the Commissions licensing and regulatory functions, the Commission may so notify servicing agency and a determination will be made by the parties as to which party will file the patent application or applications.
- Provided that neither party shall grant an exclusive patent license on an agency owned invention without the approval of the other party.
- 8. Acquired Material, Equipment, or Software (Property)
In accordance with the SOW, the servicing agency proposal must include a description of the property required for project performance that has an estimated acquisition cost of $500 or more. The proposal must also identify the potential development of NRC-funded software during the project. NRC-funded software is software specifically developed for NRC by the servicing agency and is generally the deliverable for the project.
After the NRC reviews the list of property and NRC-funded software included in the servicing agency proposal, any questions regarding the acquisition of property or the development of NRC-funded software will be addressed with the servicing agency during negotiations. After negotiating project terms and conditions, NRC shall issue the IAA for the servicing agencys acceptance authorizing the work and approving acquisition of property or development of NRC-funded software.
