- Description
- The General Services Administration (GSA), Public Buildings Services, National Capital Region, Washington, DC intends to award a sole source contract in accordance with FAR 6.302-1 for a 6-month performance period from August 1, 2009, through January 31, 2010, with two 3-month option periods. The current contract, expires July 31, 2009, provides Commercial Facility Management Services (CFM) for the Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATFE) Building located at 99 New York Avenue, NW Washington, DC 20002. GSA has started the process of soliciting a replacement contract, but has encountered major human resource obstacles. As a result of AFTE's stringent security requirements, there is insufficient time for GSA to otherwise immediately procure these services without encountering a lapse and/or impairment of services. Therefore, this sole source extension is necessary to bridge the gap between the current contract and the new award, thereby ensuring the overlap of contract performance required for the achievement of a smooth transition and continuous high-level service. Description of the work to be performed: The contractor is to furnish all material, labor, equipment, supervision and services necessary to perform full CFM for a twelve (12) month period, inclusive of the aforementioned options, for the ATFE Building. The contractor will be responsible for full building management services and is fully responsible for the management, customer service, operation, mechanical maintenance, janitorial services, elevator operations and maintenance, snow removal, energy management, management of parking facilities, loading dock, trash facilities, utility systems and quality control and engineering of the facility and of the associated grounds with all necessary labor, materials, supplies, technical support and value engineering. The statutory authority permitting other than full and open competition is 41 U.S.C. 253(c)(1) as cited in FAR 6.302-1, "Only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements." This extension is issued to facilitate continuation of services. A lapse in service will have a highly detrimental effect on the ability of the ATFE to provide its services to the public. This extension will provide services without disruption for the operation of the ATFE Building by a firm that holds current high-level security clearances and that is also familiar with the complexity of the facility and the equipment. Potomac Services, Inc. is the incumbent CFM contractor and is fully capable of continuing to perform for the additional 12-month performance period. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals, as no solicitation package will be issued. However, if a firm believes it can meet these requirements within the prescribed time frame, it may give notification via e-mail to Jerome Lofton, Contract Officer, at jerome.lofton@gsa.gov. The Government will review all responses, without prejudice; whether or not the Government initially determines that another firm is fully qualified to fulfill the requirements. Contracting Office Address: General Services Administration Public Buildings Service National Capital Region 301 7th Street SW, Room 710 Washington, DC 20407
