Locations listed are currently accessible. Not required to quote on all locations/areas,. The pricing is for evaluation purposes only. See Ordering Clauses. Subsequent task orders will be competed.

NOTE: See FAR 52.237-1 Site Visit.

Mileage amounts are estimates only and provided for general information and location purposes, and shall not relieve the Contractor from responsibility for estimating properly the amount of effort required and cost of successfully performing the work.

BASIS OF AWARD: The Government anticipates awarding multiple Firm-Fixed Price, Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) type contracts for performance based services to the quotes providing the best over-all value to the Government.

Costs for mobilization and moves between job locations will be considered incidental to the ordered work, therefore the Contractor must consider this expense in the pricing.

Task Orders awarded against IDIQ contracts resulting from this solicitation will be competed amongst all awardees. See Task Order Process starting on page 4.

AGAR 452-216-73 Minimum and Maximum Contract Amounts (FEB 1988). During the period specified in FAR 52-216-18 Ordering, the Government shall place orders totaling a minimum of $2500 per awarded contract over the life of the contract, but not in excess of $300,000 for the life of the contract including options exercised.

Option Years may be exercised and will include review of performance evaluations on previous task orders under this contract.

Authorized Ordering Officials: Warranted personnel assigned to R1 AQM are authorized to place orders under this contract.

The Government will issue a Notice to Proceed with each Task Order as soon as ground conditions are favorable for work. The count of contract time will start on the date specified on the Notice to Proceed. The Contractor shall maintain progress at a rate which will assure completion of work within the specified contract time.

Task Order Competition

Contractors will be provided a fair opportunity to compete on Task Orders in excess of $2500 in accordance with FAR 16.505 Ordering. The Issuing Contracting Officer will identify the extent of competition necessary for each Task Order using the following guidelines:

· Phone or Email interested Contractors to determine availability and capability to meet delivery;

· Past Performance on prior Task Orders;

· Impact to other contracts or orders already awarded;

Contracting Officer may place an order on a sole source basis when:

· Work is so urgent and the time necessary to provide fair opportunity would result in unacceptable delay;

· Work is unique or highly specialized; only one Contractor can provide the service;

· In the interest of economy and efficiency, the work is a logical follow-on to an order already competed; or

· Order is necessary to satisfy a minimum guarantee obligation;

If the Contractor believes it was not fairly considered for a particular Task Order, the Contractor may present the matter to the Contracting Officer. The Contractor may appeal the explanation or decision of the Contracting Officer to the Task Order Ombudsman, located at R1 AQM Policy, Building 24, Fort Missoula, Missoula, MT 59804 or fax 406-329-3876. The Ombudsman will review the Contractor’s complaint and in coordination with the Contracting Officer, ensure that the Contractor was afforded a fair opportunity to be considered for the Task Order.

Task Order Process

The Contracting Officer will issue a Request for Pricing Quote, list of roads and locations, period of performance, expected start date, and any pertinent information regarding services needed.

Initiation of Process: Projects/services will be identified on an as-needed basis. The requesting unit will submit a requisition and attach an independent government cost estimate, with list of roads, locations, time. The Contracting Officer will prepare an abbreviated package, with the information specific to the Task Order. Using the Guidelines, the Contracting Officer will request firm-fixed pricing from the appropriate number of Contractors.

Ordering Procedures

R1 AQM warranted personnel may issue task orders. Task order(s) may be issued by mail, facsimile, electronic commerce, or orally and confirmed in writing. Task orders will be considered as being “issued” at the time they are mailed, faxed, transmitted or verbally issued by the Contracting Officer. If more than one method is used to place the task order, the date of the earliest provable method will be the date of issue.

(i) All high fire risk operations could be terminated at 1300 local time.

(ii) All burning could be stopped, including debris burning fires.

(iii) Patrolman may be required for a period of 2 hours after high fire risk operations and 1 hour after end of work shift. The Contractor shall provide the patrolman unless the contract is for equipment rental, in which case the Government will provide the patrolman.

(12) (12) Pump and Trailer or Truck. During Stage I or II fire restrictions the following shall be required:

The Contractor shall provide at a location satisfactory to the Contracting Officer, a serviceable truck or trailer, equipped with a fire fighting tanker unit to be kept ready for instant use for suppressing forest fires. The unit shall consist of a tank of not less than 100-gallon capacity which shall be mounted to a live hose reel with a minimum of 100 feet of hose not less than (3/4) inch INSIDE diameter of non-collapsible (booster) hose with combination nozzle. Hose shall be connected to the water supply.

The tank shall be attached to the chassis frame or to a structurally sound flat bed in such a way to withstand pitch, roll and yaw of the load during on and off road operation of the unit without damaging the tank or other chassis components.

The pump may be an auxiliary powered pump or a power take-off pump with discharge capacity of a minimum 10 gallons per minute at 100 P.S.I. pressure. All pumps shall have a discharge pressure gauge. If the pump is of the positive displacement type, a bypass or pressure relief valve shall be provided. The pump as mounted shall be capable of drafting water from a source located 10 vertical feet below the pump head through the required 20 feet of suction hose. A portable pump capable of filling a 100 gallon tank in 10 minutes or less may be substituted in order to meet the fill time requirements.

Each Pump and Trailer or Truck unit shall have an additional fitting for 250 feet of ¾ inch garden type hose (capable of withstanding the required pressure), two ¾ inch gated wyes, and 4 hose nozzles of the shut-off type, adjustable for straight stream, spray, or fog.

A fire extinguisher, multi-purpose 2A 10BC that is securely mounted to the trailer or truck and accessible by the operator shall be required. The fire extinguisher shall have a current annual inspection tag and the annual maintenance tag in regards to a 6 year annual inspection and every 12 years regarding a hydro test on all dry powder, metal fire extinguishers.

Tools, adapters, accessories and fuel necessary to operate the pump and trailer or truck shall be provided. If a trailer is used, the proper tow hitch shall require a 2 inch ball, a serviceable vehicle and shall be located at point satisfactory to the Contracting Officer. Fill sites shall be identified prior to use, and equipment shall be field tested in the presence of an inspector.

(13) Burning. Before starting any open burning, the Contractor shall comply with the following:

(i) Submit a burning plan, subject to approval by the Contracting Officer, designed to minimize the impact on air quality and to lessen any fire damage.

(ii) Obtain a burning permit from the District Ranger.

(iii) Use weather forecasts as far as possible in scheduling burning for more favorable dispersal of smoke.

(iv) Fuel shall be reasonably free of dirt and piled to facilitate rapid and complete combustion. Piles shall be tended during burning operations to maintain combustion and to eliminate unnecessary smudges. Piles shall be patrolled during off-work hours to avoid wildfires.

(v) Unless fire season controls dictate otherwise, burning shall be scheduled, as far as practicable, for the most favorable conditions during the burning period.

(vi) Under certain atmospheric conditions, smoke accumulations may become excessive and in these cases, the Regional Forester may, at his discretion, prohibit all open burning for definite periods within specific areas of the National Forest.
