- Description
- The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) is issuing a Request For Proposal (RFP) intending to negotiate Indefinite Delivery-Indefinite Quantity, fixed price contracts (base and four one year option periods) for the procurement of small scale safety testing, thermal stability examination, and explosive characterization such as diameter effect/critical diameter testing of various improvised explosives for the FBI. Improvised explosives consist of suitable combinations of fuels and oxidizers (either as physical mixtures or incorporated at the molecular level) that can have energetic potential. Tests previously performed have included measurements of the safety, hazards, thermal stability, stability, and explosive performance characteristics of these energetic materials. Safety and hazard characterization of improvised explosives provides crucial information regarding their safe handling and manufacturing. Performance characterization experiments test the explosive in a variety of scenarios to determine its explosive potential and quantify its energy release. Contractors proposing on this solicitation will be required to submit pricing and procedures with their proposal as required in the attached solicitation. The RFP# LDQ004270 is being issued in accordance with FAR Part 15. This RFP is being conducted as an unrestricted procurement. This solicitation is attached and will be distributed solely through the General Services Administration's Federal Business Opportunities website http://www.fbo.gov. Hard copies of the solicitation document will not be available. All future information about this acquisition, including solicitation amendments will also be distributed solely through this site. Interested parties are responsible for monitoring this site to ensure that they have the most up-to-date information about this acquisition. All contractors doing business with the Federal Government shall be registered in the Central Contractor Registration (CCR) database. In addition, interested parties must also be registered and have completed the On-Line Representations and Certifications Application (ORCA). Information and registration details can be found at http://orca.bpn.gov. All Questions must be emailed to Jacob Gessel at Jacob.Gessel@IC.FBI.GOV before 11:00AM EST June 2, 2011. Any questions received after this date may not be answered. Proposal delivery date is extended until July 8, 2011 at 11:00AM EST, this due to the revised SOW that was attached to the SOW. Revised SOW - 3 is now the correct SOW to refer to in responding to the RFP, replacing the attached SOW included in the RFP Attachments.
