General Services Administration Public Buildings Service Region 1

Elevator Operations and Maintenance Solicitation

[North/Boston/South Group] *Each group will be solicited under a separate solicitation number

SOLICITATION NUMBER:

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

In order to maintain its portfolio of properties, GSA has the need to acquire operation and maintenance services, to include preventive maintenance, emergency and non-emergency service calls, testing, and repairs, at federal buildings throughout Region 1 for elevators, escalators wheelchair lifts, and dumbwaiters (henceforth collectively referred to as elevators or the elevator program.) To solicit for these services, GSA has broken the elevator program across the region into three separate groupings, each having their own respective solicitation. The North Group consists of all elevators in Maine, Vermont, and New Hampshire. The Boston Group consists of four buildings located in Boston, MA. The South Group consists of Massachusetts (excluding Boston), Rhode Island, and Connecticut.

Offerors will be allowed to submit proposals for one, two, or all three groups. Offerors will be required to submit separate proposals for each group that they submit for. Based on the factors surrounding each individual Group, e.g., site visits, questions and answers, COVID-19 delays, proposal due dates may not be the same for each Group.

This solicitation, XXXXXXXX, is for the South Group, which as stated above consists of the elevators in Massachusetts (excluding Boston, MA), Connecticut, and Rhode Island. The complete list of equipment can be found under the Performance Work Statement Attachment 1.

The resulting Contract(s) will be an Indefinite Delivery, Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) type contract that will have firm-fixed price line items under the base contract for the cost of the monthly recurring full maintenance service contract. Repairs, upgrades, and other services that, based on the performance work statement or mutual agreement do not fall under the full maintenance service contract, will be ordered under individual task orders or through modification to the base contract using the established labor rates incorporated into the contract.

2. SCOPE OF WORK

A. This contract is a full service elevator operations and maintenance service contract. Full service is defined as including all required preventative maintenance, repair and testing of elevators and responding to all service calls made by the Government. All repairs, testing and service calls are included in the monthly price for operations and maintenance services, except as indicated below. Work not included in the monthly price for operations and maintenance services is separately reimbursed via the issuance of a Task Order under this contract. The Contractor shall provide all management, supervision, labor, materials, supplies, repair parts, tools, and equipment and shall coordinate and ensure the effective and economical operation, maintenance and repair of the facility equipment as specified in this contract.

The Contractor shall provide full elevator maintenance service, in compliance with the ASME Safety Code requirements, manufacturer's recommendations, Elevator Industry Field Employees’ Safety Handbook, National Electrical Code, and all other applicable laws, regulations, rules, ordinances, codes, etc. Full maintenance service is defined as all services, repairs, inspections and testing necessary to maintain all elevators, appurtenances, and accessories in a fully operational mode at all times except for pre-scheduled downtime including all labor, parts and materials. In part, this includes maintenance and repair of door seals, light bulbs and lighting fixtures in elevator spaces (cars, hoistways, tops and bottoms of cars, and pits), and maintaining acceptable ride quality which may require periodic evaluation and adjustment of guide rails. Reference is made to Section 8.6 of the Code which establishes requirements that must be adhered to. The maintenance contractor must provide all tools, equipment, supplies and personnel necessary for safely performing all tests required by the ASME A17.1 Safety Code for Elevators and Escalators and the Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ). GSA is the AHJ. This includes inspections and tests required at six (6) month, one (1) year, three (3) year and five (5) year intervals, and any other tests determined as necessary by the CO or designee. All tests required by code will be conducted at no additional cost to the government regardless of when the testing is performed.

Note: The terms CO and COR refer to the GSA Contracting Officer (CO) and Contracting Officer’s Representative (COR). In addition, the COR may have specialists representing him or her in the management of this contract.
