Sources Sought No. N62478CON33FY2601

This is a SOURCES SOUGHT notice to determine the capabilities of Small Business (SB) firms for a potential SB set-aside, including set-asides for women-owned small businesses and service disabled veteran owned small businesses. This notice does not constitute a Request for Quote (RFQ), Invitation for Bid (IFB), Request for Proposal (RFP) or promise to issue a solicitation announcement in the future, nor does it restrict the Government to an ultimate acquisition approach. This notice is only a request by the Government to collect information from Architect-Engineer firms for the purpose of Market Research used to make acquisition decisions. Not providing a response to this Sources Sought will not prohibit/exclude your company from participating in any future solicitations. No solicitation or technical scope of services is available at this time. SB firms are strongly encouraged to review this SOURCES SOUGHT and submit according to the directions in this notice. Any information submitted to this Sources Sought is strictly voluntary. The Naval Facilities Engineering Systems Command, Hawaii (NAVFAC Hawaii) will neither award a contract solely on the basis of this notice, nor pay for any information that may be submitted by respondents to this Sources Sought.

The A-E services will be for design and engineering services for projects at various locations under the cognizance of NAVFAC Hawaii. The A-E services are Civil Engineering (NAICS 541330) in nature, but may involve multi-disciplines. All work shall be performed in accordance with applicable Federal, State, and local policy, guidance, regulations, and laws including, but not limited to, the Unified Facilities Criteria (UFC) requirements.

Business capabilities will be evaluated solely for the purpose of determining whether or not to set-aside for the SB community. Only SBs will be considered for this SOURCES SOUGHT. The Government must ensure there is adequate competition among the potential pool of available contractors. The North American Industrial Classification System Code (NAICS) is 541330, which has a size standard of $25.5 million in average annual receipts.

If set-aside, the Limitations on Subcontracting clause (FAR 52.219-14), will require at least 50 percent of the cost of contract performance incurred for personnel shall be expended for employees of the concern. Contract may be up to $20 million if all options are exercised. The A-E task orders will generally be between $5,000 and $3,500,000.
