Patrick Space Force Base anticipates a requirement that is being considered under a small business set-aside program. The North American Industry Classification Systems (NAICS) Code proposed 541511. The size standard for this proposed NAICS is $34.0M.

Description: A requirement exists to create a new Force Support Squadron (FSS) website which will meet the current business needs of external and internal customer communication, marketing and publicity, activity registration, service enrollment, and a fully integrated FSS activity calendar, facility and equipment reservation and online payment system. The final product must provide hosting solutions and the ability for FSS to easily access the data from pages offered to the customer to gain usable analytics to enable the FSS to consistently adapt operations to meet customer needs and demands with the resources available. To execute the requirement, the 45 FSS Marketing department is seeking the services of a professional web developer/designer who is experienced with creating websites that can work in conjunction with RecTrac, GES, Aloha, Cubica and Orbital systems and can execute the requirement without having to shut down the existing website during the work phase.

Salient Characteristics:

See Attached Draft SOW

Draft Statement of work is attached.

What is the purpose of the item(s): A redesign of the current FSS website, GoPatrickFl.com, to include a notification or reservation system, calendar system, and payment system. The new site should accommodate the needs of FSS Marketing as outlined in the SOW and be user friendly, both on the customer facing side and for FSS to manage.

45 CONS is currently interested in any size business that can meet this requirement.

Market research is being conducted to determine interest, capability, and socio-economic category of potential sources for the requirement. The government requests interested parties submit a brief description of their company's business size (i.e. annual revenues and employee size), business status (i.e., 8(a), Historically Underutilized Business Zone, or SDVOSB, WOSB, EDWOSB, or small business) anticipated teaming arrangements, and a description of similar services offered to the Government and to commercial customers. Include in your capabilities package your UEI, Cage Code, System for Award Management expiration date, GSA contract number and expiration (if applicable), and any related specifications/drawings.

45 CONS is interested in receiving comments from the industry on the draft PWS/SOO in regards on how the services are performed in the commercial industry. We are especially interested in information on the proposed timelines and security measures/websites listed on the draft SOW.
