Description

The purpose of this announcement is to inform Industry that the Government intends to insert the following language into Section M of the final version of the Infrastructure Modernization (IMOD) Request for Proposal (RFP): The eligibility for a portion of the contract awards may be limited based on the size of the Offeror. The Government intends to award up to eight (8) IDIQ contracts, in two groups as detailed below. The Government anticipates that up to six (6) awards wi ll be made to those Offerors whose proposals represent the best value to the Government. This first group of awards will be made without regard to the size of the Offeror. Subsequently, the Government intends to award an additional group of up to two (2) awards to the small business Offerors whose proposals represent the best value to the Government. This second group of awards is reserved for small businesses. In the event that up to two (2) small business awardees have not been selected as a result of the small business reservation process, the Government reserves the right to make up to eight (8) contract awards instead of six (6) contract awards without regard to the size of the Offeror(s). The Government also reserves the right to make no, one, or multiple awards. In the event the Government establishes a competitive range pursuant to FAR 52.215-1 Instructions to Offerors-Competitive Acquisition, such a competitive range will be established without regard to the size of the Offerors. Separate competitive ranges w ill not be made for the first and second group of awards. All contract award decisions will be determined based upon the evaluation of each Offeror's complete proposal against the evaluation criteria identified below regardless of the Offerors size. All proposals will be considered in the size category, or cate gories, for which the Offeror is qualified (e.g., small business Offerors will be considered for both the first group of awards as well as the reserved small business awards, large business Offerors will be considered for only the first group of awards and not for the reserved small business awards unless up to two (2) small business awardees have not been selected as a result of the small business reservation process). In addition, the Government has posted Questions and Answers (Amendment 7 to USASNOTE04095) to comments that were received by the Government from Industry on 23 September 2005 in response to the Second Draft IMOD RFP. The responses to these questions will be incorporated into the Final IMOD RFP which will be forthcoming soon with a tentative IMOD schedule. Any and all comments and questions that have been submitted after 23 September 2005 will either be addressed in the Final IMOD RFP or posted at a later date. For the purposes of clarification, Amendment 6 to the Second Draft IMOD RFP did not incorporate any changes. Amendment 6 just simply extended the timeframe for the Draft RFPs availability on the ASFI Web Site until 14 November 2005. Please direct all questions regarding this IMOD acquisition to Ethan Mueller, ITEC4 via either Phone: (703)-325-2090 or via E-Mail at ethan.mueller@itec4.army.mil. The Government will continue to notify Industry of all announcements and postings related t o the IMOD acquisition via the FedBizopps.
