Description

This project is an American Recovery and Reinvestment (ARRA) action. Receipt of award is contingent upon the offeror's meeting the requirements of Section 1512 (reports on use of funds) of the Recovery Act. CORRECTION OF NAICS: This sources sought notice is issued to correct the NAICS that was issued under a previous one, which was 238190. NAICS 238190 was incorrect and this sources sought notice is being issued under NAICS 562910. The reason for the change is that the industry for NAICS 562910 comprises establishments primarily engaged in one or more of the following: (1) remediation and cleanup of contaminated buildings, mine sites, soil, or ground water; (2) integrated mine reclamation activities, including demolition, soil remediation, waste water treatment, hazardous material removal, contouring land, and revegetation; and (3) asbestos, lead paint, and other toxic material abatement. The NAICS code 238190 industry comprises establishments primarily engaged in building foundation and structure trades work (except poured concrete, structural steel, precast concrete, framing, masonry, glass, and glazing, roofing, and siding). The work performed may include new work, additions, alterations, maintenance, and repairs. This industry for NAICS 238190 does not efficiently facilitate the performance of the required task, as shown below under "description", especially the reclamation aspects of the description. Cleanup of mine sites and mine reclamation activities are marked by qualities or characteristics or equipment that facilitate the performance of the required task, as described below under "description", in the best possible manner. The government's technical and contracting personnel believe that NAICS 562910 industry is more efficient to perform the task than under NAICS 238190. This is especially so when considering the reclamation part of the description of work to be performed. GENERAL: The National Park Service (NPS), Department of Interior is seeking responses of interest from contractors with capability and interest in a project described below. This solicitation will be issued electronically, on the Department of the Interior's National Business Center (NBC) web site, at http://ideasec.nbc.gov. Paper copies of this solicitation will not be made available. Prospective offerors desiring to conduct business with DOI are requested to register at the National Business Center. Proposal documents will be available in Microsoft Word, HTML and Adobe PDF; specifications will be available in Adobe PDF format; and drawings will be available in PDF format. Offerors wishing to receive electronic notification of changes will need to register to receive notification of this specific solicitation at http://ideasec.nbc.gov. This service is provided for convenience only and does not serve as a guarantee of notification. Subscribers to this service are ultimately responsible for reviewing the http://ideasec.nbc.gov site for all information relevant to this solicitation. Plan holders will be required to visit this website periodically to check for amendments and other changes to the contract documents. No other notifications will be sent. Online Representations and Certifications Application (ORCA). ORCA is an on-line system that is located on the Internet. Prior to ORCA, vendors were required to submit Representations and Certifications (Reps and Certs) for each individual large purchase contract award. Now, using ORCA, a contractor can enter their Reps and Certs information once, for use on all Federal contracts. This site benefits not only the contractor, by the business to maintain an accurate and complete record, but also the Contracting Officer, as he or she can view every record, including archives, with the click of a mouse.
