Base Operating Support (BOS) Services Contract for U. S. Naval Support Activities in Gaeta and Gricignano, Italy

This is a revision to a previously issued SOURCES SOUGHT NOTICE. If your firm responded to the initial announcement in March 2013, and remain interested in this revised scope of work, there is no need to resubmit. This is not a solicitation announcement. No contract will be awarded from this announcement, and no reimbursement will be made for any costs associated with providing information in response to this announcement. The purpose of this announcement is to obtain information only and to identify contractors who possess the capabilities to provide services as specified below. In preparation for a future procurement, the Naval Facilities Engineering Command Atlantic is performing this market research to aid in the development of its acquisition approach.



This is a SOURCES SOUGHT NOTICE to identify companies with the capacity, experience, and interest in competing for a Base Operating Support (BOS) Services Contract at U.S.

Naval Support Activities in Gaeta and Gricignano, Italy to include all outlying support areas. The work includes, but is not limited to, providing all management, supervision, labor, materials, and equipment necessary to provide services for: General Information, Management and Administration, Facility Support (Facility Investment, Custodial, Pest Control, Integrated Solid Waste Management, Recycling, Grounds Maintenance and Landscaping, Pavement Clearance), Utilities (Wastewater), and Environmental.



The work will be accomplished under a combination Firm Fixed-Price (FFP) and Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) Contract. The contract term will be a base period with a potential of four one-year option periods.

However, there is a strong likelihood that not all option periods will be issued as it is currently intended to further consolidate requirements to include the BOS Services at Naples, Italy when the current contract for those services expires, currently anticipated in the fall of 2017.

These services are currently being performed via three separate Combination Firm Fixed Price (FFP) and Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contracts as follows:
