1. This is a combined synopsis/solicitation for commercial items prepared in accordance with the format in Subpart 12.6, as supplemented with additional information included in this notice. This announcement constitutes the only solicitation; proposals are being requested and a written solicitation will not be issued.

The San Juan National Forest, Durango, CO intends to establish a Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) with one or more providers to satisfy the requirement for organizing, facilitating, and Documenting meetings. However, the Government reserves the right to award a single-award BPA, if it determines it is in the Government's best interest to do so. These services will be provided in accordance with the provided Performance Work Statement (PWS).

2. This requirement is a small business set-aside. See clause 52.212-2, Evaluation Procedures, for further details on evaluation procedures (Attached). The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) Code is 541618 and the Size Standard for Small Business is $15 Million. The requirement consists of establishing one or more BPAs, for a period of three (3) years from date of award, via issuance of BPA Call Orders. The BPA Master Dollar Limit shall be $150,000. The BPA Call Limit shall be $30,000.00. The Government may issue a BPA Call for one project meeting or a BPA Call for more meetings up to the BPA Call Limit specified.

3. The Government intends to enter into a BPA for one base year (30 January 2015 to 31 December 2015) with two (2) option years. The BPA will be reviewed annually. This BPA will have a period of performance of three (3) years from date of agreement or until the total spent on the master BPA reaches $150,000 (whichever is sooner), or until such time either party to this agreement requests that it be canceled in writing (30 day notice required).

4. Please note that a BPA is not a contract. A BPA is a streamlined method for acquiring services on an as-needed basis from qualified sources that are readily available and thus eliminate the need for repetitive costly re-procurements. There is no minimum or maximum guaranteed quantity. All BPA Call Orders must be acknowledged by the selected vendor in order to be retained on the BPA calling list. The Government does not intend to pay for any information provided under this notice. The Government is not obligated to notify respondents of the results of this notice.
