Amendment 0001 to Solicitation 1333ND20QNB190030

The purpose of this solicitation amendment is to attach a revised bid sheet and provide RFI answers.

Office Issuing this Request:

Point of Contact: DeChanta Vaughan, Contract Specialist – DeChanta.Vaughan@nist.gov

Sandra Smith, Contracting Officer – Sandra.Smith@nist.gov

Solicitation Date: 5/11/2020

Amendment Date: 5/27/2020

1. Revised Proposal Due Date

See attached bid sheet with revised building numbers.

2. RFI Answers

1. Question 1: Will there be a pre-bid site visit or conference call?

Government Response:

No, there will not be a site visit or conference call. Prospective offerors shall refer to solicitation package documents and or attachments.

2. Question 2: The beta.sam.gov opportunity notice lists a small set aside in NAICS of 238220 with the size standard of $15M. Has NIST selected NAICS 238220, Plumbing, Heating, and Air- Conditioning Specialty Trade Contractors, for this requirement?

Yes, NIST has selected NAICS code 238220 for this requirement.

3. Question 3: If NIST has specified NAICS 238220, will NIST consider changing the NAICS to 236220, Commercial and Institutional Building Construction, with a size standard is $33.5M, since it is an accurate reflection of the services described in the work statement seed projects? We believe it will be in the government’s best interest to change this solicitation to NAICS 236220.

Government Response:

NIST has selected NAICS 238220 with intentions to utilize this IDIQ for mechanical work. However, there may be incidental work from other disciplines involved.

Amendment 0001 to Solicitation 1333ND20QNB190030

NIST currently has and or anticipates awarding other contract vehicles that will be used for projects including multiple construction disciplines.

4. Question 4: It is clear that NIST is seeking experienced, self-performing and capable businesses that meet your requirements and prerequisites. Prohibiting JVs from bidding will keep individual entities, who are unqualified separately from cobbling a JV together to submit an offer, but is it NIST’s intention to exclude JVs from bidding, even when the JV itself, as a single, self-performing business entity, does meet all requirements and has all the prerequisites?

NIST is not considering any joint ventures for this requirement.
