Smithsonian Institution Solicitation No. 333302-23RF-0010033 Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity Contract (“IDIQ) for Consulting Service
Request for Information
1. We know that the Smithsonian is not obligated and almost never reports contracts to fpds.gov?
Answer: All federal contract awards over $3,000.00 must be reported in FPDS. All IDIQ contracts must be reported in FPDS in order that TOs can be reported against them
2. Can you share the incumbent's name and previous contract number on this oppty?
Answer: Attain – F13CC10363 Deloitte Consulting LLP – F13CC10365 Ernst & Young LLP – F13CC10367 Pricewarehouse Coopers LLC – F13CC10361
3. The NAICS code 541611 is referenced in the pre-solicitation announcement. The NAICS is limited to $24.5 Million. The next paragraph informs this procurement “is open to all business regardless of size”. Does the government intend for this to be a small business opportunity?
Answer: This announcement is open to all businesses regardless of size. The contract awarded will be firm-fixed-price IDIQ contract—with no Minimum Contracting Work/Amount Guarantee.
This is not going to be set aside for small business but they are welcome to apply.
4. The scope of this work falls directly in line with our capabilities and experience. Would the government consider putting this opportunity out on the STARSIII vehicle to be able to take advantage of the streamlined acquisition process of this vehicle while gathering 8(a) credit?
Answer: It is SI policy that, to the maximum extent practicable, and within the context of the SI contracting needs, small, minority, socially and economically disadvantaged 8(a), woman owned, service-disabled veteran-owned businesses and small disadvantaged businesses should be provided opportunities to compete for and be awarded SI procurements and contracts for which they qualify and are able to meet performance requirements.
5. If this IDIQ a follow on to an existing contract? If so, can you share the incumbent information?
Answer: See response to question 2.
6. Is this a merger or consolidation of existing contracts?
Answer: NO
7. I do not see a PWS unless other documents reside somewhere else. I do not see anything under
Sect L, other than administrative, that tells me what/how the Gov is requesting relative to what Sect M is evaluating – unless I am missing something.
