Description

This is a combined synopsis/solicitation for commercial items prepared in accordance with the format in FAR Subpart 12.6, as supplemented with additional information included in this notice. This announcement constitutes the only solicitation; proposals are being requested and a written solicitation will not be issued. The solicitation document and the incorporated provisions and clauses are those in effect through Federal Acquisition Circular 05-37. The PCA East Office is soliciting quotes for a contractor to provide armored car transportation services for the VA Medical Center in Leavensworth, KS. The following Contract Line Item is relevant to this procurement: CLINs 0001, 1001, 2001: The Contractor shall perform armored car transportation services in accordance with the attached Statement of Work (SOW). Period of Performance: 01 October 2011 through 30 September 2014 (and all corresponding option year dates). This solicitation will result in a firm fixed-price contract. This procurement will be made using the cascading method. The cascading method is specified as follows: 1. Any award resulting from this solicitation will be made using the following cascade order of precedence: 1.1. In accordance with FAR Subpart 19.14 and PL 109-461, award under this solicitation will be made on a competitive basis first to an eligible Service Disabled Veteran Owned small business (SDVOSB) concern, provided that there is adequate competition among such firms. 1.2. If there is inadequate competition for award to a SDVOSB concern, award will be made competitively to an eligible Veteran Owned Small Business (VOSB) concern. 1.3. If there is inadequate competition for award to a VOSB concern, award will be made competitively to an 8a or HubZone small business concern. 1.4. If there is inadequate competition for award to an 8a or HubZone concern, award will be made competitively to a small business concern IAW FAR 19.5. 1.5. If there is inadequate competition for award to a small business concern, award will be made on the basis of full and open competition considering all responsive offers submitted by responsible business concerns. 2. Adequate competition shall be deemed to exist if- 2.1 At least two competitive offers are received from qualified, responsible business concerns at the tier under consideration; and 2.2. Award will be made at fair market prices as determined in accordance with FAR 19.202-6. No price evaluation adjustments will be made. 3. When there is inadequate competition at any tier, an otherwise competitive offer from a responsible business concern at that tier will be considered with the eligible offers for the next lower tier. For example, only one competitive offer is received from a SDVOSB business. That offer will be included with the offer(s) received from all VOSB businesses. If there is still inadequate competition, the offer from the SDVOSB business will then be included with SB offer(s) received; finally, if there is inadequate competition at the SB tier, the SDVOSB offer will be included with all responsive offers.
