IN ORDER TO BID ON THIS REQUIREMENT A CONTRACTOR, AS A FIRM, MUST HAVE EXPERIENCE IN MANAGING AND PROVIDING HOSPIT AL HOUSEKEEPING SERVICES TO INSTITUTIONS OF SIMILAR SIZE AND SCOPE AS REQUIRED BY THIS SOLICITATION. THE CONTRACTOR MUST HAVE GAINED THIS EXPERIENCE AS A RESULT OF BEING REGULARLY ENGAGED IN THE BUSINESS OF PROVIDING SERVICES IN HEALTH CARE/PATIENT CARE E NVIRONMENTS (E.G.

Currently the Government inhouse workforce is performing these services . Pursuant to OMB Cir A-76, the purpose of this study is to determine the most efficient and cost-effective means of providing the required commercial services. This will be accomplished through the conduct of a ?cost-comparison?. Accordingly, a contrac t may or may not ultimately be awarded as a result of the study/cost comparison. It is the Contracting Officer?s intention to conduct this procurement as a competitive small business set-aside with the applicable NAICS code being 561720 for Janitorial Ser vices with a size standard of $12,000,000 (average annual receipts over the last 3 years).

Additionally, to assist in the planning of an acquisition strategy, responses to the following questions are required: Is your business small, small disadvantaged, 8(a), or woman-owned/operated; are you a certifi ed ?hub-zone? or a certified servicedisabled veteran-owned? The solicitation will be issued on or about early June 2002 and will be available over the Internet. Another notice will be issued shortly with the actual website address. Responses to this announcement will determine the ultimate strategy that the Government will utilize.
