NSWC Indian Head requires contractor support in performing the functions of an Alteration Installation Team (AIT) with the installation of Ship Alterations (S/A), Ship Change Documents (SCDs), and Ordnance Alterations (ORDALTS) as related to the Close-In Weapon Systems (CIWS) on U.S. Navy, U.S. Army and U.S. Coast Guard Vessels. Contractor work shall be completed according to contract, and shall take place at varying locations and facilities including: private and public shipyards, pier side, in dry dock, CONUS, OCONUS, or at the contractor's facility. Thus, the expected contract vehicle referenced under this synopsis shall be an Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract that will extend no longer than three years (36 months), if all options are exercised, from contract award. It will consist of one base year plus two option years. Task and delivery orders will be placed as both cost-plus-fixed-fee and firm-fixed-price, as appropriate. This requirement is considered full and open. The NAICS code is 541990. The Size Standard is $14M. The FSC code is 1230. This synopsis is for non-commercial services. The attached Data Requirements List and applicable instructions are included with this announcement. The upcoming solicitation number will be N00174-13-R-0044, and will be issued as a request for quotation (RFQ). Proposals will be requested with the release of the solicitation.

The Contractor's support shall be in accordance with specific, individually written task orders issued by NSWC IHD within the general scope of the applicable Statement of Work (SOW).

The Government intends to make a single award resulting from the solicitation to the responsible offeror whose submissions, which comply with the instructions and conform to the solicitation, will be the most advantageous BEST VALUE to the Government. Best value will be determined based on an integrated assessment of the evaluation factors for award. The following factors shall be used to evaluate the offers: (a) technical capability of the items and services offered to meet the minimum needs of the Government based on examination of technical approach narrative, relevant corporate experience, facilities and equipment, and personnel resources; (b) Past Performance (see FAR 52.212-1(b)(10)); and (c) Cost. These factors are of equal importance. All non-priced factors, when combined, are approximately equal to Cost in importance. However, Cost becomes more of a deciding factor of importance when offerors receive similar ratings for the other factors. General statements, that the offeror can or will comply with the requirements, that standard procedures will be used, that well known techniques will be used, or that paraphrases the RFQ's specifications in whole or in part, will not constitute compliance with the mandatory requirements concerning the content of the technical proposal.

Copies of solicitation N00174-13-R-0044 will NOT be emailed, faxed, mailed or provided in person. These types of requests WILL NOT BE ACKNOWLEDGED. This synopsis is being posted to both Federal Business Opportunities (FBO) page located at http://www.eps.gov and Navy Electronic Commerce On-Line (NECO) site located at http://www.neco.navy.mil.
