Section A - Solicitation/Contract Form

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

A1. Objective: The objective of the Facilites Reduction Program (FRP) Northeast MATOC acquisition is to provide a simplified process to respond to the Federal Government’s requirement for demolition and abatement of excess facilities. FRP uses streamlined processes that provide low-cost, quick response demolition and abatement service contracts to support excess facility removal, thereby saving energy and maintenance costs, eliminating safety hazards, nuisances and unsightly structures, maximizing landfill diversion and recycling credits, and freeing up valuable Government real estate for future development. General work activities performed under this contract include planning, coordination, and execution of building and facility removal/demolition at multiple Department of Defense installations and other Federal Agency locations throughout Maine, Vermont, New Hampshire, Massachusetts, New York, Connecticut, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Delaware, Maryland, and the District of Columbia. Projects may also include emergency response to disasters, such as hurricanes, floods, tornadoes, or terrorist activities. In response to this need, the Government will procure commercial demolition services on a regional basis. The North American Industry Classification Code (NAICS) for this contract is 238910.

A2. Contract Type: The contract is a FFP commercial service contract under FAR Part 12 and FAR Part 15.

A3. Contract Term: This contract has four ordering periods consisting of one 24-month base period and three (3) 12-month optional ordering periods. There is no guarantee that any optional ordering period will be exercised.

A4. Minimum Guarantee: The minimum guarantee for each award under this MATOC is $2,500.00. The KO will obligate the minimum guarantee against this contract line item at the time of the basic contract award. Upon issuance of task order awards with an aggregate value exceeding $2,500.00, the KO will deobligate the minimum guarantee from this contract line item. For each successful contractor, there will be a one time “minimum guarantee award amount” during the life of the contract, which includes all option years, if exercised.

A5. Contract Capacity: The shared capacity for this contract is $95,000,000 over 5 years (if all the options are exercised). The Government may move capacity performance periods as necessary. The MATOC pool total capacity will be shared among all awardees in the MATOC pool. There is no guarantee that capacity will be spread evenly within the pool.

A6. Ordering: The only authorized ordering office is the U.S. Army Engineering and Support Center, Huntsville, Alabama. Other agencies may be delegated this authority, in which case, an advance written notice will be given to the Contractor. In addition to, or in lieu of mailing an order, the Contracting Officer may issue an order orally, by facsimile or by electronic commerce methods, at his/her discretion. Task orders will be awarded against the basic ID/IQ contracts using the fair opportunity procedures pursuant to Section 863 of the National Defense Authorization Act for FY 2009, Public Law 110-118 and FAR PART 16.5, in addition to the competitive source selection procedures identified in Section 863 of Public Law 110-417. Each order exceeding $2,500.00 will be awarded on a competitive basis in accordance with FAR 16.505, unless an exception described in FAR 16.505 (b)(2)(i) through (iv) applies.

Task orders will be competed and awarded against the basic ID/IQ contract on an as-needed basis as requirements arise. The KO will use the FRP Small Business Decision Matrix (See Attachments 7, FRP Small Business Decision Matrix) to determine which task order requirements will be set aside for small Business MATOC Contractors.

There are two known situations in which a project under task order limitation may be solicited unrestricted and not set aside solely to the Small Business reserve

• A project’s anticipated value, risk and complexity are ranked and weighted utilizing the Small Business Decision Matrix. If the project is determined to be unsuitable for set aside to the Small Business reserve, the requirement will be competed as unrestricted, or

• The contracting officer determines that the Small Business reserve is working at its maximum capability and is unable to take on additional work

The Government will assess projects under task order limitation to determine whether the above criteria are met. If not, the task order will be competed as unrestricted. Small businesses in the MATOC pool may submit proposals under unrestricted task order competitions.

For task orders, the KO will document the determination and justification in the contract file IAW DFARS Subpart 215.101-2-70(a) Limitations and prohibitions. FRP uses performance based task orders whenever suitable and to the maximum extent practicable. Performance based task orders allow the Contractor to propose industry best practices and technical solutions that are both appropriate to the work site requirements and within the Contractor's capabilities. CEHNC will use lowest price, technically acceptable (LPTA) source selection procedures for task orders. For each LPTA task order award, the KO will determine that the lowest price reflects full life-cycle costs (as defined at FAR 7.101) and justify the use of the LPTA source selection process.

A7. Contracting Officers: Only a warranted Contracting Officer (either a Procuring Contracting Officer (PCO), or an Administrative Contracting Officer (ACO)), acting within specifically delegated limits, has the authority to issue modifications or otherwise change the terms and conditions of this contract. If an individual other than the Contracting Officer attempts to make changes to the terms and conditions of this contract, the Contractor shall not proceed with the change and shall immediately notify the Contracting Officer.

A8. Wage Determinations: The majority of the individual task orders to be issued under this contract are services as defined by FAR 37.101 and will be subject to the Service Contract Act (See FAR 52.222-41). In the event that individual service task orders contain more than incidental, segregable construction effort or for task orders where follow on construction is anticipated, the Davis-Bacon Act (See FAR 52.222-6) will apply to the construction portion in accordance with FAR 22.402. Wage Determinations for the geographic area where the work is to be performed will be incorporated by reference in each individual task order. A copy of the applicable determination will be available at www.wdol.gov. The labor rates in effect at the time a task order is awarded will remain in effect through completion of the project.
