Description

This is a combined synopsis/solicitation for commercial items prepared in accordance with the format in 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 document will not be issued. This notice replaces a formal request for quote (RFQ). The solicitation document and incorporated provisions and clauses are those in effect through the lastest issue of the Federal Acquisition Circular. This solicitation is issued on a 100% small business set-a-side basis (see Note 1), NAICS Code 621320, size standard $6.0M. Trident Refit Facility, Naval Submarine Base, Kings Bay, Ga. requires a contract for Fiscal Year 2003 for Visual Acuity Screening for approximately 350 employees on an as needed basis for the period 01 Oct 2002 through 30 Sep 2003 (see the following Statement of Work): STATEMENT OF WORK: VISUAL ACUITY SCREENING/SAFETY GLASSES PROCUREMENT CONTRACT INFORMATION 1. This service is to provide a Visual Acuity Screening and basic frame, lenses and side shields for Trident Refit Facility (TRF) employees on the Sight Conservation Program. The contractor will provide a complete Visual Acuity Screening/Eye Examination, performed by a licensed Optometrist, in accordance with Federal Regulations, including, but not limited to, general eye health and Glaucoma screening. 2. Travel distance for needed exams, fittings, issue, and repair of Safety Prescription eyewear must be available within a range no-to-exceed 10 miles from TRIREFFAC Kings Bay, Ga. Distance must be controlled to reduce lost duty time and to prevent incurring additional travel costs at government expense. It is anticipated that each exam will require multiple visits not only for the exam, but also for fittings and adjustments. Failure to limit distance would significantly impair performance of mission essential operations. 3. A 10-day turn-around time for receipt of glasses is necessary to maintain compliance with Federal Regulations as well as mission capabilities. 4. Authorized employees will possess a Visual Acuity Screening Authorization Form, provided and signed by specified employees in the TRF Safety Office (a sample authorization will be provided upon award as well as an authorized signature list). The Authorization will have an original signature and be provided to the contractor at the time of the exam. The employee will select a frame from samples provided by an approved vendor through the Safety Office. The contractor shall determine the proper eye size, bridge size, temple lengths, and interpupillary distance and segment heights. There are no provisions under this contract for oversized, photo gray, transition or progressive lenses. Oversized lenses are authorized only when "medically necessary" and will be annotated on the prescription. A permanent tint is not authorized for any employee due to shift-work potential. 5. Eligibility for an exam is defined as: (1) An employee identified by NAVMEDCLINKBY as having a prescription change. (2) An employee who has not been examined by an Optometrist/Ophthalmologist in two (2) years. (3) An employee who believes his/her prescription has changed. 6. Personnel with scratched lenses, broken frames, missing screws or lost glasses will be evaluated by the Safety Office on a case by case basis. The contract will include repair. Either the Safety Office (limited to screw replacement and side-shield attachment when the proper attachments are available) or the contractor will make repairs. Repairs/replacement, under warranty, are the responsibility of the contractor. 7. Employees will be advised to reuse their frames whenever possible. If deterioration is excessive, and the integrity of the frame is obviously questionable, new frames will be authorized. 8. Employees will make their own appointments and plan them with their supervisor's approval to minimize work load interruptions. Appointments scheduled for day shift employees, working a regular 8-hour day, are recommended for 1430 hours (2:30 p.m.) except when the workload permits otherwise. 9. The contractor will fax the prescription/receipt to Government Point of Contact Donna J. Philbrick, Code 108.3, ph 912/673-9213, fax 912/673-3712. Personnel in Code 108 will enter the information into the database and forward the original to NAVMEDCLINKBY Occupational Health for the employee records, and reconcile statements with the comptroller for payment purposes. The prescription/receipt will clearly indicate the individual charges for frames, lenses, and side-shields. 10. The contractor will ensure that all frames and lenses are ANSI Z87.1 approved and have permanently mounted side-shields. 11. Request that the contractors minimal hours of operation can accommodate employee availability. Contractor must list their hours of operation in their quote and that information will be included in the contract at time of award. 12. Contractor must be capable of accepting the Government credit card as a method of payment against the contract. Period of Performance for the contract will be 01 Oct 2002 through 30 Sep 2002.
