- This is a combined solicitation/synopsis for commercial items prepared in accordance with the format in FAR Subpart 12.6, as supplemented with additional information included in this notice. This announcement constitutes the only solicitation; quotations are being requested and a written solicitation will not be issued. Interested parties are responsible for monitoring this site to ensure that they have the most up-to-date information about this acquisition. Solicitation Number 0152151 is being issued as a Request for Quotation (RFQ) under FAR Parts 12 and 13 to provide maintenance under the following SOW: 0001. The mission of the Operational Technology Division in the Federal Bureau of Investigation is to provide technical support for the field. A significant part of this support is in the form of technical equipment. A increasing portion of this equipment is designed and made inside the Rapid Prototyping Facility (RPF). One of the tools that the RPF uses to fabricate new equipment is a Stereo-Lithography Apparatus (SLA). The SLA takes information from a Computer-Aided Design (CAD) system and automatically creates a dimensionally accurate, three-dimensional plastic model. 0002. The RPF has three mechanical rapid prototyping systems. Two of these are a SLA-5000 and SLA Viper manufactured by 3D Systems, Inc. A maintenance contract(s) is required for FY2006 to keep the systems running. The estimated life of the machines are estimated at seven years from the original purchase. 0003. Hardware Requirements: 1.0 The contractor(s) shall provide full hardware maintenance on the following hardware: 1.1 SLA 5000 and integral PC. 1.2 SLA Viper and integral PC. 2.0 The contractor shall have "on call" remedial hardware maintenance. 2.1 The contractor shall respond within two hours as to when the remedial maintenance will be conducted. 2.2 The contractor shall provide this remedial hardware maintenance on-site within three working days of the acknowledgement. 3.0. The contractor shall provide all spare parts under this contract. The contractor shall provide one laser replacement per machine at their expense as part of the contract. If any additional lasers need to be replaced, the government will purchase the additional laser. 4.0 The contractor shall provide all current and revised test equipment during hardware maintenance. 5.0 The contractor shall provide preventative hardware maintenance at least every three months at the government site. The actual date for this maintenance will be scheduled at the government's convenience. 6.0 Security Clearances: All contractor personnel performing maintenance work on site must complete the security processes and meet the requirements specified by the FBI Security Division for the sensitivity or classification level of the information for which they will require access. Contractors coming on site shall be escorted at all times while at the on site location. Contractors must possess a minimum of a Secret Personnel security clearance or be processed for a Limited background Investigation (LBI) before maintenance on site can be scheduled.

The applicable NAICS is 811219 and the small business size standard is 500 employees. This requirement will be awarded as a commercial item firm-fixed price contract under FAR Parts 12 and 13. The FBI will award this RFQ to a responsible offeror whose proposal complies with the terms of this RFQ and is otherwise deemed to be most advantageous to the government, price and other factors considered. The FBI may consider award to other than the lowest priced offeror or other than the highest technically rated offeror when in the best interest of the FBI. The FBI also reserves the right not to make an award to any offeror. References will be evaluated for acceptance prior to award. Technical capability will be determined solely on the content and merit of the information submitted in response to this provision. Therefore it is incumbent on the interested party to provide sufficient technical literature, documentation, etc. in order for the Government to make an adequate technical assessment of the proposal. Award is anticipated on or before December 15, 2005. Delivery shall be made to the FBI ERF Building 27958A, Quantico, VA 22135.

In the event of a conflict the terms and conditions of the Government?s contract shall take precedence over the warranty. The warranty period shall begin upon final acceptance of all items provided to the government by the contractor.
