- Description
- On or about 07 May 2012, the National Park Service (NPS) Midwest Regional Office Major Acquisition Buying Office (MWRO - MABO), intends to issue a Request for Proposal (RFP) to award a single, firm-fixed price contract for the work to include "Administrative History" located at Voyageurs National Park, International Falls, Minnesota. The solicitation closing date will be on or about 22 June 2012. Actual dates and times will be identified in the solicitation. Responses to this synopsis are not required. Additional details can be found in the solicitation when it is posted. The official solicitation, when posted, will be available free of charge by electronic posting only and may be found at www.fedbizopps.gov or http://ideasec.nbc.gov. PAPER COPIES OF THE SOLICITATION WILL NOT BE ISSUED. Amendments, if/when issued, will be posted to www.fedbizopps.gov and http://ideasec.nbc.gov for electronic downloading. This will be the only method of distributing amendments prior to closing; therefore, it is the offerors responsibility to check the website periodically for any amendments to the solicitation. In accordance with FAR 19.502-2 and agency supplements, this project will be set-aside for small business concerns only. The North American Industry Classification System code for this project will be 712120 with a size standard of $7M. Scope of Work The scope of work will include: The performance of research and writing of an administrative history of the park as an institutional entity since the time it was first proposed. The legislative history of the park (concentrating on the period from 1962 to establishment in 1975) was published in 2004 (Voyageurs National Park: The Battle to Create Minnesota's National Park by Fred Witzig). This research project will pick up where the legislative history left off and address the period from 1975 to the present. The government will review the progress of the report development through required drafts and provide comments as necessary. It is anticipated that the final draft shall be completed, including all reviews, within 24 months of contract award. THIS WILL NOT BE A SEALED BID OR LOW BID PROCUREMENT. A best value trade-off selection process will be conducted in accordance with FAR part 13. At the discretion of the Contracting Officer, portions of FAR parts 12 and 15 may be utilized. This best value approach will use factors such as technical, price, and past performance. It is anticipated the aforementioned factors will be listed in descending order of importance and that all non-price related factors, when combined, will be significantly more important than cost/price. Failure to submit all requested information in the solicitation may result in the entire proposal being disqualified from further competition. The Government intends to award without discussions, but reserves the right to conduct discussion should it be deemed in the Government's best interest. REGISTRATIONS: Offerors must have and maintain an active registration with the Central Contractor Registration (CCR) website to be eligible for a Government contract award.
