Description
The purpose of the amendment is to: 1) Change Buisness Classification to Total Small Business Set-Aside Only, 2) To incorporate a Revise Statement of Work, 3) All proposals must be submitted via email by 2:00 PM est on August 22, 2007, 4) Respond to questions and concerns submitted by potential bidders - 1. Is there a page limit to the proposal? 25 Pages 2. Is there an incumbent performing these or similar services? Yes, Atek, Inc, Leesburg VA. 3. Are the CAFM Data Specialists and the CAD Technician Specialists currently on staff? If so, how many of each are there? CAD Technician Specialists - All members of the Space Design and Alterations Team have PD's as Facilities Technical Specialists, 5 are "Design Focused" and can be considered Design and CAD Technician Specialists. CAFM Data Specialists - Currently, we have no CAFM (Computer Aided Facilities Management) Specialists on staff. That function was filled by the prior CAFM data manager. However, in consultation with the prior CAFM Data Manager, we have fulfilled certain tasks peripheral to and in support of the Facilities Center 7 Facilities System, including polylining drawings, updating drawing backgrounds per the CAD/FM standards, and updating room occupancy and personnel data on Excel spreadsheets in preparation for their upload into the FM system by the CAFM Data Manager. Training - 4 SDAT Team members are currently engaged in background training in anticipation of training and engagement with the CAFM system ( Archibus) in coordination with the CAFM Data Manager. This training includes Excel, SQL, and AutoCAD update training. Space Management - In the event that the Space Management function is to be performed by ORPS, we will need several additional staff solely for that function which, among other skills, are CAFM Data and CAD proficient. 4. Has Archibus/FM been installed and configured? NO, ORPS is currently in the process of procuring this software. What version of Archibus/FM has been installed? Version 16. 5. Have all required licenses been purchased for the modules that the customer requires? What is the current license structure? Not yet, we are currently in the process of procuring the software. The license structure will include Real Property and Lease, Overlay for AutoCAD with Design Management, Condition Assessment and Operations and Maintenance Management. Real Property and Lease? Yes Overlay for AutoCAD with Design Management? Yes Condition Assessment? Yes Operations and Maintenance Management? Yes 6. Has a software subscription been purchased for Archibus/FM? Currently in the procurement process. 7. Are there any specific software suites that the customer requires Archibus/FM to be integrated with (examples: SAP, PeopleSoft)? Throughout the duration of the contract there may be integration with the GSA Rentbill, the internal FDA Enterprise Administrative Support Environment (EASE) which is the personnel data system and the Employee Resource and Information Center (ERIC). 8. Do CAD Standards currently exist? Yes, the Current FDA CAD Standards are based on the per FDA CAD Standards Manual, authored by and issued November 25, 2002 . These Standards are expected to be edited per the ORPS CAD group meetings in coordination with the CAFM Data Manager. 9. What version of AutoCAD has been installed ? We currently use Autodesk Architectural Desktop 2005, menu configured for AutoCAD 2005. Per recommendation of the prior CAFM data manager, we are planning to upgrade to AutoCAD Architecture 2008, menu configured to AutoCAD 2008, prior to the expected FDA implementation of the Archibus FM system. 10. What is the current DHHS-FDA space inventory (in number of facilities and Square Feet) that is covered by this RFP? 366 constructed assets, 6.7 million square feet 11. 11. Have standard operating procedures for the CAFM toolset been written? The prior CAFM Data Manager developed and programmed his own customized, unique system for data interface between Facilities Center 7, the FDA CAD drawings, and the FDA EASE personnel data system. This system included 3rd party (Oracle) software as well as software written by the prior CAFM data manager. It is my expectation that the new CAFM Data Manager will need to create similar interfaces with the expected Archibus System. 12. In what format would you like to see the cost proposal? Divided into subtasks based on number of hours and the associated hourly rate. In addition, include all applicable incidental costs (i.e. travel). 13. Should other supporting skillsets be included as add-alternates? We have capabilities that, while not specifically called out in the RFP, may be required.

Total Small Business Set-Aside. 18. What time of the day is the Proposal due? August 22, 2007, 2:00 pm EST 19. Will electronic proposals be accepted? If not how many hard copies are required? Is the address listed in the solicitation (Department of Health and Human Services, Food and Drug Administration, Office of Acquisitions and Grants Services, 5630 Fishers Lane, Room 2129, Rockville, MD, 20857-0001) the correct address for proposal delivery?
