Description
This is the formal Notice for an Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Circular A-76 Commercial Activities Study of Soil Conservation Technician Services presently being performed by the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) in Oklahoma. The revised OMB Circular A-76, dated May 29, 2003, will be used. Certain deviations may be incorporated, as approved by OMB, for retention of the previous cost rules or procedures. Please read this entire synopsis. This is NOT a request for proposal and in no way obligates the Government to award a contract. The USDA, NRCS is seeking sources capable of providing Soil Conservation Technician Services in Boise City, Guymon, Beaver, Woodward, Taloga, Watonga, Kingfisher, Okmulgee, Muskogee and Sallisaw, Oklahoma. Duties include gathering resource data to assist landowners in identifying resource conservation needs, assisting in the development of basic conservation plans with landowners to address resource concerns, assisting landowners with the design, layout, and inspection of completed conservation practices, developing land treatment contracts utilizing existing USDA and other federal, state, and local cost-share programs and providing annual follow-up on existing contracts. Assistance provided will include working cooperatively with the local NRCS field office staff, local conservation district, and other federal, state, and local partner agencies. Duties include assisting with conducting public education and information activities, conducting tours, presenting talks, and preparing news articles as necessary. An effective knowledge of engineering design, surveying and computer use is required to fulfill the duties of these positions. A determination has been made that the studied services are subject to the Brooks Act, and the procedure for procurement of Architect-Engineer Services will be employed. In accordance with OMB Circular A-76, the FAR, and the Brooks Act, the most qualified firm as determined by the ranking of the A & E Evaluation Board will be asked to provide a cost proposal for the performance of these functions. This cost proposal will be compared with the Government cost to perform the above services. This proposal will not result in a contract if the Government performance is determined to be more cost advantageous. Government personnel currently provide these services. This solicitation will not be restricted to any group or business size. NAICS Code is 541990, All other Professional, Scientific, and Technical Services. Interested parties are to submit their SF-254s and SF-255s by close of business on August 8, 2003.
