- 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. Solicitation FQ5004302901 is hereby issued as a Request for Quote. This solicitation document and all incorporated provisions and clauses are those in effect through Federal Acquisition Circular 2001-06. This acquisition is 100% set-aside for small businesses under NAICS code 339950, which has a small business size standard of 500 employees. The requirement consists of the following, (CLIN #, Quantity and Unit of Issue, Description;) 1. Scope. Contractor shall provide and install signs used to identify the addresses of buildings located throughout Eielson AFB in accordance with the following specifications. Eielson AFB is in the process of assigning new physical addresses to nearly every building--work centers, maintenance shops, hangars, homes, and office buildings--on the base. To that end, nearly every building on the base shall be required to change existing address signage in favor of the new address. Requirements for this SOW include signs to be attached to buildings, signs to be attached to existing and contractor-provided signs posts, and self-adhesive signs to be attached to existing signs. Includes removal of existing signage. Performance period extends from 15 Mar 03 to 15 May 03. All signs must be installed and accepted by the government NLT 15 May 03, including any punch list items. Specifications. The contractor shall provide samples and submittals on all materials required in this SOW for approval. a. All signs, except self-adhesive signs, shall be made from aluminum at a thickness of 0.080. b. All signs shall be warranteed by the contractor against fading, delamination, and installation durability for a period of 5 years after installation. c. All signs, including self-adhesive signs, shall be white lettering on a dark brown background. d. Dark brown sheeting (see ?c? above) shall be in the color of Hiway Brown or National Park Service Brown. e. The majority of signs ordered shall require prismatic reflective sheeting presenting a high coefficient of retro reflection. Reflectivity shall be visible through the dark brown layer. f. Approximately 15 percent of required signs, including some self-adhesive signs, shall be Engineer Grade sheeting in the same dark brown. g. All sign lettering shall be reverse die cut. Screening, painting, or stick-on letters are not acceptable. h. Sign lettering shall be Helvetica Medium or Helvetica Regular, with capitalization and lettering size verified at order. i. Signs shall be installed on exterior walls made of concrete, CMU, metal, or Dry-Vit, or on existing and contractor-provided 2? X 2? sign posts. Self-adhesive signs shall be installed on existing flat aluminum signage. j. Contractor-provided sign posts shall be 2? X 2? square perforated steel tubing, approximately 12 feet in total length, in the color of dark brown, and shall include suitable solid steel base. k. Method of installation shall be at the option of the contractor, however the installation method shall be durable, tamper and vandal proof, and shall match the color of the signs. For example, if rivets are used as a mounting method, the visible portion of the rivets shall be dark brown as well. l. Upon installation all signs shall be plumb and level at the correct height and be in the correct location. m. Specific address numbers, maps, samples, and other related information shall be provided to the contractor at award. The quantities and labor needed are listed below: 1. Provide and install aluminum signs, NTE (not to exceed), 1260 SF (square feet). What are the sizes (Height X Width) of the 1260 aluminum signs? REPLY: The signs will be different sizes. That's why we went with SF pricing. Some will be 6 inches X about 12 inches, some will be in the 14" X 36" range, others will be a few inches smaller or larger. There will be hundreds of each size, but there will be a handful of different sizes. 2. Provide and install self-adhesive signs, NTE, 250 SF. What are the sizes of the 250 self-adhesive signs? REPLY: Same as the answer for above. Some will be small like 4" X 4", others will be about 6" X 36". Remember these are stickers, no metal. Do the self-adhesive signs need to be dye stamped? REPLY: Yes, all signs must be reverse die cut. 3. Labor hours to remove existing signs, NTE, 167 EA. What type and size are the signs to be removed and how are they installed. REPLY: They are installed on metal, CMU, and concrete walls using screws, molly bolts, rivets, studs, and probably glue. Their sizes are comparable to the new signs. 4. Provide and install new 2" X 2" sign posts, NTE, 5 EA. Are the 2" X 2" steel posts with solid steel bases mounted to concrete? Do we have to dig new footers and pour concrete? REPLY: The gov't will accept either concrete poured bases or bases that have been driven into the ground. Either are acceptable as long as the sign post is solid, plumb, and durable. Is the background reflective white or another color. REPLY: The text letters are white. If they make them right, ie IAW para 2g of the SOW, reverse die cut will get them there. It is my understanding that the white lettering should be reflective and the brown does not need to be? REPLY: The white is the reflective and the reflectivity is visible through the brown. So the brown is somewhat transparent, but still dark brown. Do the self-adhesive signs need to be dye stamped? REPLY: Yes, all signs must be reverse die cut. Can you please clarify the square footage issue. REPLY: The signs are provided by the square foot, not by "each". Totals are NTE (not to exceed) (x-amount) SF for aluminum signs, NTE (x-amount) SF for self adhesive signs, NTE (x-amount) hours of labor for removal of old signs, and NTE (x-amount) each new sign posts. Both types of signs and the sign posts include installation in their price. Evaluation of offers will be performed on the basis of price.
