- Description
- SOURCES SOUGHT SYNOPSIS KEESLER AFB BASE OPERATING SUPPORT (BOS) A-76 COST STUDY, PICK-A-BASE. The information provided is the planned strategy at this time. The strategy for this acquisition may change prior to final RFP release. We are seeking qualified large and small businesses, 8(a) concerns, SDB contractors, historically underutilized businesses, women-owned businesses, and historically black colleges and universities and minority institutions under NAICS Code 561210 (Size Standard $23 million) to participate in this Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Circular A-76 Cost Comparison study. The study will consist of looking at all personnel, equipment, tools, materials, supervision, and other items and services necessary to perform seventeen selected service functions, identified below, for the 81st Training Wing at Keesler AFB, MSThis request for proposals is part of a Government cost comparison study pursuant to Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Circular A-76, as implemented by FAR 52.207-2, the OMB A-76 Revised Supplemental Handbook, and Air Force Instruction 38-203, Commercial Activities Program. This study is conducted to determine whether accomplishing the specified work under contract (private) or by in-house (public) performance is more economical. If in-house performance is determined to be more economical, this request for proposals will be canceled and no contract will be awarded. There will be two steps leading to the determination to either award a contract or retain the requirement for in-house performance. The first step is the selection of the best value contractor?s proposal to compare with the in-house cost estimate. The second step is the comparison of the best value proposal and in-house cost estimate with a final decision to either award a contract or retain the work for Government performance. AETC is considering setting aside for small business several of the functions (Little BOS), in which case a separate award would be made to a small business firm for these areas, with the remaining functions falling under a separate contract award (Big BOS). Two separate Government bids will be prepared, one representing the Big BOS areas and the second representing the Little BOS areas. There are four possible award scenarios: Both Big BOS and Little BOS may go contract, both Big BOS and Little BOS may remain in-house, Big BOS may be contracted out while Little BOS remains in-house, or Big BOS may remain in-house while Little BOS is contracted out. THIS COST STUDY WILL NOT RESULT IN A CONTRACT AWARD IF GOVERNMENT PERFORMANCE IS CONSIDERED MORE ADVANTAGEOUS. The Big BOS includes service areas 1 ?14 (listed below) and the Little BOS includes service areas 15-17.
