The tenders will be used on the Mississippi River from Ste. Genevieve, Missouri (Upper Mississippi River Mile 123), to the Head of Passes (Lower Mississippi River Mile 0); the Ohio River from Cairo, Illinois (Ohio River Mile 981), to Ohio River Mile 920; the Tennessee River from Paducah, Kentucky (Tennessee River Mile 0), to above Kentucky Dam (Tennessee River Mile 25); th e Cumberland River from Mile 0 to Mile 8; the Old River, the Atchafalaya and the Red Rivers (Louisiana), the Gulf Inner Coastal Waterway as far west as the Calcasieu River, the Mississippi River Gulf Outlet from Baptiste Collette to Mile 45, and the Houma Navigation Channel, for general towing and tender service in connection with construction and maintenance of channel improvement works. For example, one tender will work with the revetment field unit engaged in gravel spreading operations. However, the Gov ernment reserves the right to use the tenders with any of the field units engaged in the revetment operation or for towing barges loaded with gravel, concrete mat, or any other material related to revetment operations. The tenders will be used to transport personnel, plant and materials. Delivery of the tenders shall be made afloat at Ensley Engineer Yard, McKellar Lake, Memphis, TN (Mile 725 AHP) or at a location specified by the Contracting Officer's Representative. The Contractor will be notified seven calendar days before the date tend er is to be delivered. It is expected, but not guaranteed, that delivery of the tenders will be required on 01 July 2007. A final inspection will be made after delivery and the Contractor will be notified of acceptance or rejection. A pre-work conference w ill be held after final acceptance. The tender shall be ready for operation when delivered. Upon completion of the contract, the tender will be released to the Contractor at the work site on which it was last used. At least one (1) weeks notice will be giv en concerning point of release. The estimated Period of Performance is 12 weeks, or 2,016 hours, for each tender. It is estimated that the tenders will be in operation 24 hours per day, 7 days per week. Based upon Government considerations, the tenders may be required for a period greate r or less than what has been estimated. The contractor is guaranteed a minimum of 720 hours, for each tender, unless terminated for default. If actual time in use is less than the guaranteed minimum, the contractor will be paid for the number of hours stip ulated as the contract minimum. In addition, the contractor may be required to exceed the estimated number of hours by as much as 15%, or 302 hours. Any contractors interested bidding on this requirement and providing one or more tenders should contact Joe Chapman at 901-544-3404 or by emailing a response to: joseph.a.chapman@usace.army.mil.
