- Description
- SOURCES SOUGHT Professional Engineering Support Services This is a Request for Information only. This is not a solicitation or request for proposals. (a) As prescribed in Federal Acquisition Regulation 15.209(c), The Government does not intend to award a contract on the basis of this Request for Information or to otherwise pay for the information requested except as an allowable cost under other contracts as provided in subsection 31.205-18, Bid and proposal costs, of the Federal Acquisition Regulation. (b) Although "proposal" and "offeror" are used in this Request for Information, your response will be treated as information only. It shall not be used as a proposal. The U.S. Department of State (DOS), Office of Logistics Management, on behalf of the Bureau of Overseas Buildings Operations, anticipates awarding multiple indefinite quantity/indefinite delivery contracts to supply technical personnel to diplomatic construction projects outside of the United States. Each contract shall consist of a one-year base period with four one-year optional service periods. The total amount of orders issued under each contract shall not exceed $10,000,000 per year. The objective of the contract is to obtain individuals with the skills and qualifications to meet the full range of engineering and administrative expertise necessary to assist and support the State Department's Office of Construction Management (CM) in its effort to build and renovate diplomatic facilities abroad. The range of services required spans engineering expertise to administrative and support services with skill sets and experience that match CM's need for engineering analysis, development, planning, directing, managing, and coordinating CM diplomatic construction projects. Qualified personnel shall be provided in the following disciplines: Architect, Civil Engineer, Mechanical Engineer, Electrical Engineer, and Project Controls Engineer. Candidates must have a minimum of ten years of experience working on active construction sites. Design office experience does not count toward the minimum experience. The contractor must be able to fill these positions for the duration of the task order and must be able to maintain a pool of qualified alternates to minimize delays in providing qualified employees to man the positions in a timely fashion. Contractors must have all resources necessary to support the deployed employees in house, including but not limited to, legal counsel, human resoruces assets, and program management personnel. Only contractors whose primary line of business is providing technical support personnel with experience staffing overseas project sites will be considered. All employees to be provided under contract shall have Top Secret DISCO security clearances. In order to be eligible to perform under this contract, the successful offeror must possess or be able to obtain a Department of Defense (DOD) Secret Facility Clearance (FCL), with Secret safeguarding capability, issued in accordance with the National Industrial Security Program Operating Manual, DOD 5220.22-M. Personnel requiring access to classified information or Controlled Access Areas (CAA) at DOS locations must possess a Secret personnel security clearance issued by the Defense Industrial Security Clearance Office. Subcontractors requiring access to classified information or CAA spaces must also possess a Secret FCL. Offerors already possessing the necessary FCL should submit their appropriate Commercial and Government Entity Code with their proposal. If a selected offeror does not possess an interim or Final Secret FCL, the Department of State will sponsor the uncleared firm for an FCL. Sponsorship does not guarantee that the firm will receive the clearance. A period of six calendar months from the date of selection for award will be allowed for the uncleared firm to obtain the necessary FCL. After this period, the Government may, at its discretion, consider awarding the contract to another firm or awarding fewer contracts. Firms which form joint ventures must also comply with the above FCL and personnel security clearance requirements. Each entity comprising the joint venture must be issued an FCL, as well as the joint venture.
