The purpose of this notice is to synopsize the Kuwait Ammunition Supply Point and Theater Storage Area 2.0 (ASP/TSA 2.0) requirement in accordance with Federal Acquisition Regulation 5.207.

Army Contracting Command - Rock Island (ACC-RI) intends to issue a solicitation for Class V munitions supply support for all ammunition stocks accounted for by 1st Sustainment Command (Theater)(1st TSC) to U.S. Military / Government component, Department of Defense agencies and, as required, Coalitions Forces in the U.S. Central Command Area of Responsibility. It is estimated that the Request for Proposal, W52P1J-15-R-0090, will be issued on or about 24 August 2016. However, this date is subject to change. Future notices, as applicable, will provide updates of the anticipated solicitation release date.

ACC-RI intends to conduct a full and open, best value competition to award a single hybrid Cost Plus Fixed Fee with a Performance Based Incentive Fee contract. The period of performance is anticipated to be one base year plus five on year evaluated option periods, and will include Federal Acquisition Regulation clause 52.217-8, Option to Extend Services.

The successful offeror for this acquisition will be required to support the 1st TSC for those interconnected warehouse operations support services that are critical to mission accomplishment, and cannot be efficiently acquired independently via separate competitive acquisitions. The principal functions to be performed under ASP/TSA 2.0 are the issue, storage, and receipt of munitions (both training and war-reserve), munitions components, munitions packing and packaging material, and other munitions-related material. Associated functions include: supporting periodic munitions readiness inspections; stock accountability, stock control, warehousing; munitions and non-munitions material salvage/residue accountability, munitions reclamation, amnesty, inventory, ASP/TSA munitions security; user turn-in; packaging, shipment, and performing maintenance on all assigned Government Furnished Equipment (GFE).

It should be noted that any interested parties must be able to demonstrate the existence of a current U.S. facility clearance to the SECRET level IAW DODD 5220.22, National Industrial Security Program Operating Manual.
