SECTION A – REQUIREMENTS AND PRICING

Solicitation Number: 140D0425Q0337

Title: Laundry and Linen Service

Product Service Code (PSC): S209 – Housekeeping – Laundry/Dry Cleaning

(i) This is a combined synopsis/solicitation for commercial items/services prepared in accordance with the format in Subpart 12.6, as supplemented with additional information included in this notice. This announcement constitutes the only solicitation; quotes are being requested and a separate written solicitation will not be issued.

This is a Request for Quotation (RFQ) under solicitation number 140D0425Q0337

The associated North American Industrial Classification System (NAICS) code for this procurement is 812331 – Linen Supply with a size standard of $40M. This requirement will not be set-aside for small businesses.

Work described in the PWS is to be accomplished at the Office of Aviation Services (OAS), Alaska Regional Office (AKRO) facilities located at 4405 Lear Ct, Anchorage, Alaska 99502.

Period of Performance:

Base: 8/1/2025-7/31/2026 Option year 1: 8/1/2026-7/31/2027 Option Year 2: 8/1/2027 – 7/31/2028 Option Year 3: 8/1/2028 – 7/31/2029 Option Year 4: 8/1/2029 – 7/31/2030

The provision at FAR 52.212-2 Evaluation – Commercial Items (Nov 2023) applies to this acquisition. This acquisition will be evaluated as Lowest Priced Technically Acceptable (LPTA) in accordance with (IAW) FAR Part 13. The Government will award a contract resulting from this solicitation to the responsible Contractor whose quote, conforming to the solicitation is rated acceptable and has the lowest quoted price.

The Government will evaluate offers for award purposes by adding the total price for all options, plus half the price of the last option (to evaluate the 52.217-8 extension) to the total price for the basic award. This solicitation notified offerors that the award will include the Government's unilateral option to extend performance for an additional period up to six months under FAR 52.217-8, during which the pricing and terms of the period in which the option was exercised would apply. The Government cannot predict if or when the option may be exercised. Because any exercise of the Government's option extends the pricing and terms of the period in which the option was exercised, the Government expressly and affirmatively evaluates pricing for the option to extend under 52.217-8 co-extensive with the Government's price evaluation for each of the base and option periods of this award. Because pricing for each period subject to possible extension under the 52.217-8 has been evaluated, pricing for any possible future use of that option to extend has, likewise, been evaluated and would apply in strict accordance with this evaluation in the event of the Government’s exercise of the option to extend services.

· Solicitation Section A, pricing page(s) completed
