This synopsis is for a Best Value Source Selection solicitation and is a 100% Small Business Set-aside. This acquisition will result in an Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (ID/IQ) contract for a Weight Handling Equipment Multiple Award Contract (WHEMAC). The WHEMAC will be used primarily for the ordering of new, and the overhaul of existing, weight handling equipment (WHE) of varying types (bridge cranes, portal cranes (overhaul only), jib cranes and gantry cranes) and lifting capacities for Navy, Marine Corps and other federal activities worldwide. The work contemplated under this WHEMAC will include, but not be limited to: site survey/investigation; design;

fabrication; crane rail alignment survey/installation; demolition/removal of existing cranes and equipment in compliance with environmental disposal restrictions;

runway/equipment electrification; crane installation; crane testing; and operational training. Cranes will be designed and manufactured in accordance with CMAA 70 and CMAA 74 as modified by NAVCRANECENINST 11450.2, and certifiable in accordance with NAVFAC P-307. Application for use of the weight handling equipment to be procured under this WHEMAC may range from general purpose to more complex applications, including handling of fissionable materials, molten metals, ordnance, and hazardous area applications as defined by the National Electric Code.

This WHEMAC will be used to procure new equipment and/or overhaul WHE with the following characteristics:

- Up to a maximum of 30-Ton capacity

- Up to a maximum single span of 60 feet (span will apply only to bridge and gantry cranes)

The total WHEMAC (i.e. the total amount of all delivery/task orders issued during the contract term, regardless of the number of contracts awarded) shall not exceed $30,000,000. The WHEMAC will be valid for ordering future requirements for up to five

(5) years (i.e. base ordering period of one year, with options for four additional one year ordering periods) from date of award, or when the total value of the WHEMAC reaches $30,000,000, whichever occurs first. Future delivery orders will be competed only among the potential six (6) successful contractors. Award of subsequent orders will be based on either lowest price, or best value to the government (i.e., evaluation of price and other factors). Award evaluation factors for individual delivery or task orders may vary depending on the unique requirements of each order; however, price shall always be considered as one of the evaluation factors. The ID/IQ contract awards resulting from the solicitation will include a minimum guarantee of $10,000. Award of a delivery order under the ID/IQ contract(s) will satisfy the minimum guarantee. Delivery orders shall require the work of registered professional engineers.

Successful awardees are highly encouraged to attend pre-proposal conferences and are required to submit proposals for future delivery orders.

The Government reserves the right to award up to six (6) separate Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity type contracts (ID/IQ) for a period of a base year and four option years.
