Statement of Work

1.0 Purpose

The U.S. Geological Survey, Idaho Water Science Center, requires one complete tunnel hull outboard jet boat package to support streamgage operations in shallow river environments.

The requirement includes one tunnel hull outboard jet boat, one compatible outboard jet motor, one compatible boat trailer, and all required standard equipment, documentation, warranties, ownership/title documents, manuals, and related materials necessary for safe operation.

The vessel will replace an existing vessel that has reached the end of its service life and shall be capable of operating in extremely shallow river environments containing rocks, gravel bars, shallow channels, and debris.

2.0 Background

The Idaho Water Science Center currently operates a 14-foot Crestliner jon boat with a 15 horsepower propeller outboard motor. The current vessel is at the end of its service life and limits field operations to water depths of approximately 2 feet or greater.

Due to recent vehicle access limitations and to improve safety for field personnel, the Idaho Water Science Center requires increased shallow-water running capability to access streamgage data collection sites by boat rather than by vehicle. The current vessel also limits equipment deployment due to its size and configuration.

If this requirement is delayed or not awarded, the Idaho Water Science Center may experience data loss, increased operational costs, and increased safety risk for field personnel. The replacement vessel will provide safer measurement alternatives at multiple sites, reduce the need for field personnel to work from shoulder-less, high-traffic bridges, and reduce the risk of lower-unit strikes while navigating shallow river channels.

3.0 General Requirement

The contractor shall provide one complete tunnel hull outboard jet boat package consisting of the following:

• One 16-foot class welded aluminum tunnel hull outboard jet boat, center console configuration, brand name or equal to Wooldridge 16' Alaskan LT Center Console Model;

• One outboard jet motor compatible with the proposed tunnel hull vessel, at least 60 horsepower and four-stroke, brand name or equal to Yamaha F60JB;

• One galvanized bunk boat trailer compatible with the proposed 16-foot class tunnel hull outboard jet boat and outboard jet motor, brand name or equal to Gateway GST galvanized bunk trailer; and

• All required rigging, installation, standard equipment, testing, documentation, warranties, ownership/title/MSO documents, manuals, and materials necessary for operation.

The complete boat, motor, and trailer package shall be new, unused, fully assembled, fully functional, compatible as a complete package, and ready for Government inspection and acceptance.

Brand Name or Equal The brand name or equal references in this solicitation identify the characteristics and level of quality that will satisfy the Government’s minimum needs. Equal products will be considered if the offered products meet or exceed the salient physical, functional, and performance characteristics identified in the Statement of Work.

Offerors proposing an equal product shall clearly identify the offered item by manufacturer, brand name, make, model number, and any applicable part number. Offerors shall submit sufficient technical literature, product specifications, drawings, brochures, manufacturer data, or other documentation to demonstrate that the offered boat, outboard jet motor, trailer, and related components meet or exceed the salient characteristics identified in the Statement of Work.

If an offered product requires modification to meet the solicitation requirements, the Offeror shall clearly describe the proposed modification and identify where the modified product meets the applicable salient characteristics.

The Government will evaluate equal products based on the information submitted with the quotation and information otherwise reasonably available to the Government. The Government is not responsible for locating or obtaining information not identified or submitted by the Offeror.

Failure to submit sufficient documentation demonstrating that an offered equal product meets or exceeds the salient characteristics may result in the quotation being determined technically unacceptable.

Unless the Offeror clearly identifies an offered product as an equal product, the Offeror shall be understood to be offering the brand name product referenced in the solicitation.

(a) Evaluation Factors.

The Government will award a contract resulting from this solicitation to the responsible Offeror whose offer conforming to the solicitation will be most advantageous to the Government, price and other factors considered.

The Government intends to make award on a lowest-priced technically acceptable basis.

The following factors will be used to evaluate offers:

(1) Technical Capability

The Government will evaluate the Offeror’s demonstrated ability to provide one complete tunnel hull outboard jet boat package that meets or exceeds the requirements of the Statement of Work.

To be considered technically acceptable, the Offeror shall provide sufficient documentation demonstrating that the offered boat, outboard jet motor, trailer, rigging, installation, testing, documentation, warranties, and required accessories meet or exceed the minimum salient characteristics identified in the Statement of Work.

The Government will evaluate technical capability based on the following:

i. The offered 16-foot class welded aluminum tunnel hull outboard jet boat, center console configuration, brand name or equal to Wooldridge 16' Alaskan LT Center Console Model;

ii. The offered outboard jet motor compatible with the proposed tunnel hull vessel, at least 60 horsepower and four-stroke, brand name or equal to Yamaha F60JB;

iii. The offered galvanized bunk boat trailer compatible with the proposed vessel and outboard jet motor package, brand name or equal to Gateway GST galvanized bunk trailer;

iv. Submitted product literature, specifications, drawings, manufacturer data, or other documentation showing compliance with the Statement of Work;

v. Compatibility and complete system integration of the boat, motor, trailer, controls, battery system, fuel system, steering system, lighting, and accessories;

vi. Confirmation that the complete boat, motor, and trailer package will be new, unused, fully assembled, fully functional, tested, documented, and ready for Government inspection and acceptance;

vii. Confirmation that the outboard jet motor will be installed in accordance with the hull manufacturer’s and engine manufacturer’s specifications;

viii. Confirmation that an engine start/function test and on-the-water test will be completed prior to delivery or Government pickup; and

ix. Confirmation that all required ownership/title/MSO documents, engine documentation, trailer documentation, manuals, warranty documents, water test documentation, and installation/rigging documentation will be provided.

A quote that does not demonstrate compliance with the Statement of Work may be determined technically unacceptable.

(2) Contractor Qualification and Manufacturer Authorization

The Government will evaluate whether the Offeror is the original equipment manufacturer, or an authorized dealer, distributor, or reseller for the proposed boat, outboard jet motor, and trailer package.

To be considered technically acceptable, the Offeror shall be a manufacturer or an authorized dealer, distributor, or reseller for the proposed products.

(3) Delivery / Readiness Schedule

The Government will evaluate the Offeror’s proposed delivery or readiness schedule.

To be considered technically acceptable, the Offeror shall confirm that the complete boat, motor, and trailer package will be fully assembled, tested, documented, and ready for Government inspection and acceptance no later than 180 calendar days after receipt of order.

Earlier delivery or readiness is acceptable.

The Offeror shall identify the pickup location if the Government elects to pick up the completed package. The Offeror shall also identify transportation/delivery as a separately priced optional line item if delivery is requested by the Government.

(4) Price

The Government will evaluate price for reasonableness and completeness.

For purposes of determining the lowest-priced technically acceptable quotation, the Government will evaluate the total evaluated price by adding the prices proposed for CLIN 00010, CLIN 00020, CLIN 00030, and Optional CLIN 00040, Transportation/Delivery.

Evaluation of Optional CLIN 00040 does not obligate the Government to exercise or award the optional CLIN. Award may be made without exercising Optional CLIN 00040.

The total quoted price for CLINs 00010 through 00030 shall include the complete boat, outboard jet motor, trailer, rigging, installation, testing, documentation, warranties, and all items necessary to provide a complete operational package in accordance with the Statement of Work.

Technical capability, contractor qualification/manufacturer authorization, and delivery/readiness schedule will be evaluated on an acceptable/unacceptable basis. These non-price factors will not be comparatively rated. To be eligible for award, a quotation must be determined technically acceptable under all non-price factors. Award will be made to the responsible Offeror submitting the lowest total evaluated price among quotations determined technically acceptable.

(b) Options.

For purposes of determining the lowest-priced technically acceptable quotation, the Government will evaluate the total price for the basic requirement together with the price proposed for Optional CLIN 00040, Transportation/Delivery. Evaluation of Optional CLIN 00040 does not obligate the Government to exercise or award the option. The Government may award the purchase order without Optional CLIN 00040.

(c) Notice of Award.

A written notice of award or acceptance of an offer furnished to the successful Offeror within the time for acceptance specified in the offer shall result in a binding contract without further action by either party. Before the offer’s specified expiration time, the Government may accept an offer, or part of an offer, whether or not there are negotiations after its receipt, unless a written notice of withdrawal is received before award.
