- This is a sources sought announcement only. No solicitation is being issued at this time. For reference purposes, the solicitation, when issued, will be numbered F05604-02-R-0017. Numbered notes 1 and 26 apply. While the action being advertised is likely to occur, the amount of information available for publication at this time is limited. The solicitation, when issued, will be a Request for Proposal (RFP). It is not anticipated at this time that the acquisition will be commercial (FAR Part 12). A best value source selection will likely be the method of contractor selection. The 21st Contracting Squadron at Peterson AFB CO seeks potential sources to perform a variety of non-personal services in support of the mission of the 21st Communications Squadron, Peterson Air Force Base (PAFB), Colorado. These services include support of operations, maintenance and management of the Peterson complex Local Area Network (LAN) and Wide Area Network (WAN) to include unclassified and Multi-level Secure System (MLS) and classified network support, secure dial-in services (e.g., Virtual Private Networking), wireless services, network management, system administration, trouble ticketing (e.g., Remedy ARS), Information Assurance and security, configuration management and control, Internet and Intranet, hardware and software maintenance (to include Defense Messaging System (DMS) and others), help desk services and engineering and technical support to the 21ST Communications Squadron. Work includes integration and expansion of the Peterson Air Force Base Network (LAN and WAN) as well as assistance to the Air Force and DoD civilian personnel in the areas of responsibility under the statement of work. The potential exists for some services to migrate off of this requirement after contract award due to consolidations efforts at the Major Command (MAJCOM) level. The contractor shall also interface with other contractors or government agencies in support of issues dealing with the evolution of Peterson Complex communications systems in areas where the contractor is the functional manager, i.e., LAN and WAN. These services shall be performed on a 24-hour-per-day 7-day-per-week basis. This listing should be considered neither final nor all-inclusive at this time. The contract performance period will be a base period of one year and four one year option periods, exercised at the unilateral right of the Government. The proposed contract type will be cost plus award fee or cost plus incentive fee. The North American Industry Classification Code is 513310. The small business size standard for this procurement is 1500 employees. This requirement has historically been and is anticipated to be 100% set aside for small business. The solicitation including the statement of work will be issued on or about January 2003, through FedBizOpps (FBO) at http://www.eps.gov. All amendments will be posted to and available for viewing on FBO. When the solicitation is posted, it is incumbent upon the interested parties to review the site frequently for any updates and amendments to any and all documents. All potential offerors are reminded, in accordance with DFARS 252.204-7004, Required Central Contractor Registration, lack of registration in the Central Contractor Registration (CCR) will make an offeror ineligible for contract award.
