The Contractor shall provide duly qualified and professional experts, and any supporting requirements necessary to accomplish the efforts described in this Statement of Work (SOW) as a donation to benefit the Government of Mexico (GOM).

In 2021, the U.S. and Mexico agreed to the Bicentennial Framework for Security, Public Health, and Safe Communities, which expands the scope of the Mérida Initiative by countering international crime, illegal drugs, and instability abroad. The Bureau for International Narcotics and Law Enforcement Affairs (INL), through the U.S. Embassy in Mexico helps deliver justice and fairness by strengthening their police, courts, and corrections systems. These efforts reduce the amount of crime and illegal drugs reaching U.S. shores.
One of the main objectives under the Bicentennial Framework is to strengthen the capacity of security and justice sector actors to reduce impunity for crime and protect human rights. Under this Statement of Work (SOW), the Contractor shall perform all required services to certify GOM State and Federal Crime Analysts assigned to high-impact crimes and investigations units in the CONOCER Competency Standard.

3. Objective

The objective of this SOW is to facilitate and administer various “Consejo Nacional de Normalización y Certificación de Competencias Laborales” (CONOCER) Competency Standard Certifications to U.S. Government identified GOM partners. The first competency standard needed is for GOM State and Federal criminal analysts throughout Mexico to receive the CONOCER Competency Standard 1599. This will offer integrated certification for Mexican Federal and State crime analysts to improve their knowledge and skills and
