Naval Facilities Engineering Command, Southeast, (NAVFAC SE) is conducting market research of industry to identify potential Small Business firms, with current relevant qualifications, experience, personnel, and capability to perform services required for a Firm Fixed-Price Indefinite-Delivery, Indefinite-Quantity (IDIQ) contract for:

Geographic Information Systems and Professional Surveying and Mapping Services for various project types at DOD and Non-DOD activities.

The anticipated firm fixed price indefinite delivery indefinite quantity contract will not exceed $45M over the life of the contract. The contract is structured to include a five (5) year ordering period. The contract shall not exceed five (5) years or $45M. The estimated range of task order values is $200,000-$2,000,000.

The NAICS code for this contract 541330 and the size standard is $16.5M. Comment by Acton, Kyle J CIV USN NAVFAC SE JAX FL (USA): Double check this NAICS, looks like our standard for CIBL AE design. Take a look at the SAIC or Prosser contracts, but also verify that we are selecting the most appropriate (with the corresponding size standard) on the NAICS lookup. Comment by Acton, Kyle J CIV USN NAVFAC SE JAX FL (USA): Confirm we are using the correct size standard based on the NAICS we choose
