C-1.0 INTRODUCTION

C-1.1 PERFORMANCE OBJECTIVES

C-1.1.1 Optimum longevity of all building systems through a well-managed operations, maintenance, and repair program.

C-1.1.1.1 A rapid, smooth transition from contract start to full operational capability, including good faith resolution of pre-existing contract deficiencies and other required reconciliations.

C-1.1.1.2 Strict compliance with manufacturer recommended scheduled maintenance or other Government approved standard of equal or higher level.

C-1.1.1.3 Accurate diagnosis and prompt resolution of system problems identified through service calls, preventive maintenance, or contractor initiated proactive inspections.

C-1.1.1.4 An aggressive contractor inspection system (quality control) that emphasizes on-going systematic analysis of potential problems so as to reduce the probability of future system failures.

C-1.1.1.5 Contractor independent performance consistent with the need to keep the contracting officer’s representative (COR) informed of current status of building systems, anticipated service interruptions, and other vital information.

C-1.1.1.6 Maximum customer satisfaction through prompt, courteous resolution of customer concerns.

C-1.1.1.7 A Government-contractor relationship characterized by mutual trust and support. Facility systems operations and service support.

C-1.2 BACKGROUND OF REQUIREMENT. In the past, the Government utilized multiple contracts to provide required support for facility systems operations and service support. The operations and related service support functions are now to be consolidated into one Base Operations and Support Services (BOS) contract. The Government determined that it would be considerably more effective and efficient if a number of additional support services were included in a single firm-fixed-price contract. The single Contractor would provide an integrated management approach that orchestrates all system operations, support services, and minor construction with an integrated maintenance management system.

C-1.3 Statement of Need (Scope) C-1.3.1 General. This contract includes all labor, supervision, tools, materials, equipment, transportation, and management necessary to provide for all facility systems operations and service support to include minor construction for the United States Court of Appeals for the Armed Forces (USCAAF), and Hybla Valley Federal Building (HVFB). attachments J-C2 “Master Equipment Inventory” and J-C3 “Historical Workload Data” contain information and pertinent statistics for the two facilities.

C-1.3.2 Contract Type. This is a combination firm fixed-price / indefinite quantity contract.

C-1.3.3 Scope of Services. As part of the fixed-price the Contractor shall provide all facility system operations (C-5.1) and facility support services (C-5.2). Major Repairs and Minor Construction (C-5.3) with estimated cost over $2,000.00 may be acquired using firm-fixed-price Indefinite Quantity (IQ) task orders, subject to the Davis Bacon Act (DBA), as detailed in section C-5.3 of this PWS. With the exception of any single repair that exceeds $150,000.00 (labor plus material); the Contractor is responsible, under the fixed-price portion of the contract, for the first $2,000.00 of all repairs. The Government is not obligated to utilize the Contractor for major repairs or minor construction however the Contractor is obligated to provide those services if requested by the Government.

C-1.3.4 System. This performance work statement emphasizes Contractor “system” responsibilities. The term “system” means all components normally associated with the system even if not specifically identified in the contract. The term “system” encompasses all ancillary parts required for the total system to properly function as intended and accomplish its purpose.

C-1.3.5 The major functional areas of this contract are facility system operations, facility support services (including custodial, grounds maintenance, trash and refuse removal, pest control, and snow and ice control), major repair and minor construction, and the computerized integrated maintenance management system (CIMMS), MAXIMO for work orders and service calls. Due to the different performance periods of the existing contracts not all facility support services required under this contract will start at the same time (see attachment J-B1, “CLIN Summary” for period of performance details).

C-1.3.5.1 System operations encompasses operation, preventative maintenance, and repairs of facility and infrastructure systems, roof and parking lot maintenance, and locksmith services.

C-1.3.5.2 Facility services encompasses custodial services, refuse collection and disposal, snow and ice control, pest and animal control, grounds maintenance and landscaping.

C-1.3.5.3 Major repair and minor construction are further defined in section C-5.3 of this PWS.

C-1.3.5.4 Computerized Integrated Maintenance Management Systems (CIMMS), MAXIMO. Encompasses tracking and reporting information related to service calls, preventative maintenance, Government –Industry Data Exchange Program (GIDEP) alert, repairs, and work order requests from receipt to completion.

C-1.3.6 The contract requires the contractor to operate, maintain, and repair all mechanical, electrical, plumbing, and utility systems installed in the buildings, including air-conditioning equipment and systems, air-handling/distribution equipment and systems, domestic water equipment and systems, electrical equipment and indoor - outdoor lighting systems, heating equipment and systems, HVAC systems (see J-C16 HVAC Maintenance Schedule/Frequency) and energy management controls and monitoring equipment, sanitary sewage equipment and systems, storm drainage equipment and systems, underground utility systems, all above systems visible or hidden, and portable fire extinguishers. The contractor’s responsibility for utility systems begins immediately at the point where the local municipality or other provider terminates its service. The contract includes all building support services, including: potable water, gas, electricity, sewer, chilled water, condenser water, steam supply, and condensate lines. (see attachment J-C15 Preventive Maintenance Schedule/Frequency) C-1.3.7 The Contractor may be required to handle and remove asbestos on a small scale, short duration basis, e.g., the removal or encapsulation incidental to the performance of the preventive maintenance and repairs.

C-1.3.8 A master inventory equipment list is contained in attachment J-C2. Government Furnished Parts or Materials (GFP/GFM) and equipment may be added or deleted from this contract by the Government. If such additions result in an increase or decrease in contractor costs, the Government may adjust the contract price in accordance with the Section I, FAR Clause 52.243-1 Changes. The Government makes no representation or guarantee as to the condition of equipment on the start date of the contract, and no adjustments will be made in contract price relative to equipment condition or age after award.

C-1.3.9 Hours of Operations. Government core duty hours are Monday through Friday, 0700 to 1700. Some mission situations will require the Contractor to work outside core duty hours (see attachment J-C7, “Service Location with Hour Requirements”). These situations include, but are not limited to, disruption of services, e.g., unscheduled/scheduled outages, scheduling of facility services, or contingency accidents/incidents, or other emergencies. Another example would be when a construction contractor requires a water outage outside core hours. The draining and refilling of the water system outside of the core hours would be a requirement of this contract.
