- The Department of Interior, Bureau of Reclamation, Yuma Area Office, has a new requirement for the Operations and Maintenance (O&M) of Yuma Desalting Plant (YDP) located at 7301Calle Agua Salada, Yuma, Arizona. The YDP is one of the world's largest reverse osmosis desalting plants. Its full capacity is 72 million gallons per day. Though the main plant is not currently operating, it is maintained. In addition, certain process areas, such as potable water production, are operating. The successful contractor shall provide all contract management, planning, supervision, administration, personnel, operation, engineering support, labor, tools, equipment, supplies, materials, chemicals, services, transportation, and facilities necessary to perform service in accordance with the Statement of Work (SOW). The selected contractor must exhibit extensive reverse osmosis (RO) desalting experience as specified in the SOW areas: (1) Administration; (2) Operations; (3) Maintenance; and (4) Engineering support. The proposed contract is a fixed price level of effort incentive type contract. The performance period will have a base (1 year) and 4 one year options. The Government is responsible for determining the contractor's level of effort (LOE) for each contract year. The Government, at its option and with notice, may increase or decrease the level of effort to achieve a desired level of support in accordance with the SOW. This solicitation is a Two-Step Competitive Procedure: (1) Step one - offerors will be invited to submit a technical proposal in accordance with Section M. The Government will determine which firms are technically acceptable (down-selecting to all technically acceptable contractors).
