This SIN EXCLUDES: (1) major or new construction of buildings, roads, parking lots and other facilities; (2) complex R&A of entire facilities or significant portions of facilities, and (3) Architect- Engineering Services subject to Public Law 92-582 (Brooks Act).

The work performed under this SIN shall be associated with existing SINs that are part of this Schedule. Ancillary Repair and Alterations shall not be the primary purpose of the work ordered but be an integral part of the total solution offered. Ancillary repair and alteration services may only be ordered in conjunction with or in support of products or services purchased under this Federal Supply Schedule contract.

This SIN includes all regulatory guidance outlined in accordance with FAR 36, including the Davis Bacon Act and the Miller Act.

Special Instructions: No award will be made under 003-97 Ancillary Repair and Alteration unless an offeror is awarded (or receives award concurrently) for another SIN under this Schedule. The Repair and Alteration work must be ancillary (incidental) to the primary services or products offered under the Schedule.

For Federally-owned space managed by GSA's Public Building Service (PBS), approval of the PBS Building Manager must be received by the ordering activity and contractor before any repair and alteration work may be ordered. A copy of the approval must be retained by both the ordering activity contracting officer and the contractor.

Owned or leased space outside the PBS inventory may also include approval requirements. A copy of the approval must be retained by both the ordering activity contracting officer and the MAS contractor performing the R&A services.

This R&A SIN shall not be used for PBS leased space.

Any Agency contracting officer ordering services under this SIN for Ancillary Repair and Alterations is responsible for complying with his or her agency's internal policies when procuring R&A services. This may include a specific warrant delegation for procuring construction services when the estimated amount of this portion of the task order exceeds $2,000 (Ref. FAR 22.4).

Special Notice to Ordering Agencies: GSA or other landlords may require reperformance of any nonconforming work at agency expense. If applicable, agencies may seek appropriate recourse from the contractor responsible for the nonconforming work.

Order-Level Materials (OLMs) - Order-Level Materials (OLMs) are supplies and/or services acquired in direct support of an individual task or delivery order placed against a Federal Supply Schedule (FSS) contract or FSS blanket purchase agreement (BPA). OLMs are not defined, priced, or awarded at the FSS contract level. They are unknown before a task or delivery order is placed against the FSS contract or FSS BPA. OLMs are only authorized for inclusion at the order level under a Time-and-Materials (T&M) or Labor-Hour (LH) Contract Line Item Number (CLIN) and are subject to a Not To Exceed (NTE) ceiling price. OLMs include direct materials, subcontracts for supplies and incidental services for which there is not a labor category specified in the FSS contract, other direct costs (separate from those under ODC SINs), and indirect costs. OLMs are purchased under the authority of the FSS Program and are not "open market items." Items awarded under ancillary supplies/services or other direct cost (ODC) SINs are not OLMs. These items are defined, priced, and awarded at the FSS contract level, whereas OLMs are unknown before an order is placed. Ancillary supplies/services and ODC SINs are for use under all order type CLINs (Fixed-Price (FP), T&M, and LH), whereas the Order-Level Materials SIN is only authorized for use under T&M and LH order CLINs. The Order-Level Materials SIN is only authorized for use in direct support of another awarded SIN. Price analysis for OLMs is not conducted when awarding the FSS contract or FSS BPA; therefore, GSAR 538.270 and 538.271 do not apply to OLMs. OLMs are defined and priced at the ordering activity level in accordance with GSAR clause 552.238-82 Special Ordering Procedures for the Acquisition of Order-Level Materials. Prices for items provided under the Order-Level Materials SIN must be inclusive of the Industrial Funding Fee (IFF). The value of OLMs in a task or delivery order, or the cumulative value of OLMs in orders against an FSS BPA awarded under an FSS contract, cannot exceed 33.33%.

Company Experience and Qualifications (Past Performance) Century Elevator, Inc. (CEI) was founded in 1989, as an alternative to the original equipment manufacturers. At that time, the portfolios of building owners and management companies increased to include various makes of vertical transportation (elevator, escalator, wheelchair lifts, commercial lifts, and dumbwaiters). Our founders recognized the need for competent, professional vertical transportation service providers capable of servicing various makes of vertical transportation equipment in the Washington, DC, Northern Virginia and Maryland area. In 1992, Century Elevator, Inc. became a small woman-owned business enterprise and this change brought a new focus on customer service. Our expertise and technical support for the increasing diversification of vertical transportation equipment was expanded. Since that time we have established a reputation as an outstanding independent Elevator Contractor, respected for both our quality of work and competitive pricing.

Today the CEI team is composed of full-time, forty hours (40) hours per week, Journeyman Mechanics and Mechanics’ Assistants having, on average, a minimum of fifteen (15) years of experience in elevator or vertical transportation system evaluation, modernization history, repair capability, project management, and vertical transportation knowledge. One of the strengths of CEI is our Mechanics, with an average tenure with the company of approximately ten years.

They provide maintenance, service and repairs on various types and vintages of equipment. CEI also, over our history have developed advanced diagnostic and analytical devices for vertical transportation applications and utilized to analyze and report on changes in building traffic patterns (requiring controller reprogramming), intermittent faults (requiring repairs) and outside influences affecting performance (changes in line voltage, etc. coming from local electrical power supplier).

Our mechanics are supported by an administrative staff selected based on their expertise as it relates to operational support and customer satisfaction. Our service includes on call technicians who are available twenty-four (24) hours per day, seven (7) days a week. We offer two (2) hour response time for non-emergency callbacks and one (1) hour response time for emergency callback such as entrapments or single elevator buildings. All calls received after normal business hours are answered by our answering service, relayed to the Supervisor on call for disposition and dispatched to the on-call mechanic within minutes of the call being received. All calls are logged both by the answering service and the office personnel for historical record keeping and quality assurance purposes.
