- Description
- This notice is a combined synopsis/solicitation for commercial items prepared in accordance with the format in FAR Subpart 12.6, as supplemented with additional information included in this notice. This announcement constitutes the only solicitation; offers are being requested and a written solicitation will not be issued. This notice is being issued as a Request for Quotations (RFQ)] for a vendor to provide long term and short term lodging of NASA personnel and contractors hired by NASA traveling to Huntsville, Alabama. The long term lodging will be for one year or six months, while the short term lodging will be for any period less than six months. It is anticipated that lodging will be required for a minimum of approximately 25 short term employees and approximately 63 long term employees. The long term rentals will be billed to NASA on a monthly basis for rentals assigned to NASA employees. The long term rentals assigned to NASA contractors will be billed to the contractor (via credit card) not NASA and the contractor may manage the rental however they wish. The specific center(s) will fund the rental by issuing a purchase order. Based on the number of units requested, the long term rate may be reduced, which will be passed onto the centers. The short term rentals will be billed (via credit card) directly to the employee (NASA or Contractor). The traveler will book the room through their travel office and request a rate under the contract. The discount varies as a function under the length of commitment and should be proposed accordingly. The lodging establishment is required to notify NASA sixty days prior to any blackout periods when the reduced rates would not be available. The lodging facilities must be located in the Huntsville/Madison area convenient to Marshall Space Flight Center. The lodging establishments will provide furnished rooms with a private bath, one double bed, lighting, telephone with voice mail or messaging service, two separate phone lines (one for internet/one for phone) or one phone line and high speed internet, alarm clock or wake-up service, a television, table, chair, and individually controlled heating, ventilation, and air conditioning services to each room. In addition, free parking for a guest vehicle or a government vehicle must be provided. The rooms shall be cleaned at least weekly and free from odors. A laundry facility will be on the premises for guest use or located in each room. The lodging establishment will inform and collect from guests directly any additional costs, such as telephone charges, pay television, internet, and any other costs not included in the contract. Studio, One Bedroom, and Two bedrooms lodgings may be proposed, but any lodging with two bedrooms must have two bathrooms. Please include additional volume discounts that will be applicable providing a certain number of rooms are leased. The provisions and clauses in the RFQ are those in effect through FAC 01-23.
