A SITE VISIT AT BLDG 410 (NAVICP MECHANICSBURG) IS SCHEDULED FOR 30 AUGUST 2007 AT 10:00AM. CONTRACTORS MAY CONTACT LUANN RUSSELLl, NAVICP, 717-605-1428 or Wesley S.

STATEMENT OF WORK FOR NAVAL INVENTORY CONTROL POINT (NAVICP) MECHANICSBURG BLDG 410 CARPET ACQUISITION AND INSTALLATION NAVICP has a requirement to replace old, deteriorated carpet in Building 410 at the Naval Support Activity (NSA). This project is consistent with our long range facilities Quality of Life Improvement Plan (QOLIP) to upgrade all NAVICP administrative workspaces. The new carpet will consist of 24"x 24" modular carpet tile, versus rolled broadloom carpet. This modular carpet minimizes replacement costs due to damage, untreatable stains or renovation changes and is less costly to install in occupied spaces. Several types of carpet are required. Two types of special building entrance carpets are required to capture exterior dirt, snow deicing materials and other contaminants before entering the main hallway or lobby entrance areas. This specialized carpet preserves the life of the main carpets and minimizes janitorial costs of carpet cleaning. The other carpet requirements for the open administrative office spaces, central hallways, wing hallways and private offices are ne eded to provide an aesthetic, professional appearance with a high durability carpet material, reducing long term maintenance and premature replacement costs. For appearance and consistency with existing furniture and office color schemes, carpet samples must be provided to the NAVICP Business Office for color and pattern approval. NAVICP requires 7,869.30 square yards of new carpet for this project along with 8,400 lineal feet of cove base. Carpet thresholds for all transition spaces are also required. All VCT floorings must be stripped waxed with patching and repairs as necessary. 6,500 SY of existing carpet is to be removed and disposed. Approximately 380 square yards of carpet referenced above is for overage (attic stock). Government's preference is to match 1,272 square yards of existing carpet previously procured from Mohawk Carpet Corporation, Lees Carpet Division. If matching carpet is not available, the in-stock carpet may be excessed as a loss to the government if it cannot be utilized elsewhere, making the new carpet requirement a total of 9,141 square yards. On-site visit(s) by prospective bidders is required to understand requirements for cut ins, thresholds, borders, and confirmation of total SY requirements. It is requested that the vendor offer a guaranteed lifetime warranty on all carpets against dishing, doming, cupping, crushing, matting, fading. Must be static free, colorfast stain-resistant yarn with 96% or better stain resistance. A Duracolor or similar yarn dyed stain resistant material is required. Backing material shall be a superior tuft bind with no edge ravel, no seam sealers, no delamination and impervious to moisture. Surface texture is to be textured loop graphics, 1/8" gauge with finished pile thickness .123" (3.1 mm) average. Face yarn weight is to be 22 oz per SY .All primers and pressure sensitive adhesives must be approved by the carpet manufacturer to ensure a lifetime warranted installation on adhesives. All materials required for installation are to be included in this solicitation. Installation time must ensure an overnight set up for next business day traffic. Carpet selected for entrances to capture initial dirt should be of tufted construction, 5/32" gauge; DuPont nylon 6.6 with 6.6 scraper died yarn, with reinforced synthetic/fiberglass backing. This carpet shall also have a lifetime warranty on wear (no more than 10% face yarn loss), static, edge ravel delamination and tuft bind. To ensure the government the opportunity to purchase material, installation and follow-on customer support services from one entity, we request a single prime vendor be awarded responsibility for both material and installation to limit liability to a single source. Other than the hallways, the administrative spaces are occupied with modular and standalone furniture, files, bookcases, some safes, water coolers, coffee messes, filing systems and other typical office furniture. This installation must incorporate a furniture "lift system" to install the carpet. No computer equipment can be detached from local area network cabling during the installation process. Installation must occur after hours or on weekends and coordinated with appropriate Navy personnel. All spaces must be completed and available for employee access to work following each evening/weekend phase of the installation to preclude any work stoppage. Contractor personnel must obtain access to the installation under existing security procedures. POC at NAVICP Mechanicsburg: Luann Russell, NAVICP, 717-605-1428 or Wesley S.
