This notice does not commit the U.S. Government to contract for any supply or service. Further, the U.S. Government is not seeking quotes, bids or proposals at this time and will not accept unsolicited proposals in response to this sources sought notice. The U.S. Government will not pay for any information or administrative costs incurred in response to this notice. Submittals will not be returned to the responder. Not responding to this notice does not preclude participation in any future RFQ or IFB or RFP, if any is issued. If a solicitation is released, it will be synopsized on the Government wide Point of Entry. It is the responsibility of potential offerors to monitor the Government wide Point of Entry for additional information pertaining to this requirement. The anticipated NAICS code 562991, Septic Tank and Related Services, Size Standard $7.5 Million.

NOTE: The Performance Work Statement (PWS) is herein attached with this Sources Sought.

A continuing need is anticipated for Sanitary Refuse to locations around Fort Leonard Wood and Lake of the Ozarks Recreational Area, MO, which is currently being fulfilled through current contract W911S7-13-D-0001.

In order for MICC Fort Leonard Wood (FLW) to accurately determine the most appropriate means of procuring these services, valuable industry input is of the utmost importance. Your responses to the following questions, and providing any other information you feel would be valuable and beneficial, will aid in MICC FLW making a determination as to the procurement approach that will maximize competition while still fulfilling the requirement in the most effective way possible.

Question #1: Is your firm capable of performing all the tasks detailed in the requirement description?

Question #2: If your answer to question #1 is no, please explain which tasks you cannot perform.

Question #3: Is there a difference in the equipment and personnel training/expertise required to service portable latrines as opposed to the equipment and expertise needed to service permanent latrine facilities (including septic tanks)? If so, what is the difference?

Question #4: If this requirement was re-solicited as two requirements; one for the services associated with the portable latrines; and the other for the tasks associated with all other types of latrines covered by the solicitation, would your firm issue a bid/offer for both requirements?

Question #5: If the answer to question #4 is NO, why not?

Question #6: If the answer to Question #4 is YES, would the prices offered for the two separate solicitations likely be greater than the prices offered for the tasks in one solicitation? If so, please briefly explain how breaking the requirement into two smaller requirements for separate contracts might impact how you would calculate your bids/offers.
