Description

NA The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Philadelphia District, and the Marine Design Center intends to initiate a negotiated, best-value procurement conducted under Federal Acquisition Regulations Parts 13 and 15 to replace the existing crane of the New York Dis trict Drift Collector GELBERMAN with a new knuckle boom crane. The new knuckle boom crane shall have comparable lifting capacity as the existing crane, but more boom outreach. The knuckle boom crane shall be outfitted with a grapple, as well as winch and hook. The Drift Collector GELBERMAN lifts and removes debris from the waters of New York Harbor and Newark Bay. The existing crane is a NAUTILUS 3000-102-010. Maximum boom outreach is 26 feet; rated capacity is 11,200 pounds at 15 feet, and 5,760 pounds at 26 feet. The crane is powered by a self-contained diesel hydraulic power pack located in the engine room. The existing debris collection system consists of a telescoping boom hydraulic crane serving a debris area on the vessel after deck. The crane lifts debris using a hook and winch. The knuckle boom configuration will allow direct retrieval of debris by reaching to the water with the boom tip and grapple, as well as retrieval with winch and hook. Proposals will be reviewed for completeness in sat isfying the requirements of the Request For Proposal (RFP). The Proposals will be evaluated on their merit against the following evaluation factors: Technical Factors (a) Product; (b) Management; and (c) Past Performance and Experience as well as Price Fac tors (a) Price Reasonableness and (b) Price Realism. Offerors shall provide product literature, technical features and warranty provisions with their quotes. The technical factors as a whole are more important than price. However, price remains a signif icant factor in determining the best value. Initial cost proposals must be submitted along with initial technical proposal to the Contracting Officer in accordance with the requirements of Section L Proposal Requirements and Evaluation Criteria of the RFP . The government may award a contract on the basis of initial proposals received without discussions; therefore, each proposal should contain the offerors best terms.
