Many facilities are in remote locations and some facilities are operated seasonally. Management and operations of the CBP National Facilities Maintenance/Repair Program includes providing all management, labor, contracting capability, supplies, materials, and equipment to effectively, efficiently and satisfactorily perform the maintenance and repair services necessary to manage the program.

ANY project funded out of the ?new construction? program will not be included in this definition, regardless of cost.) - Contractor to provide all Architectural and Engineering disciplines as required to design/construct the project. This includes the applications and receipt of any permits required for the project. - Government personnel will conduct inspections during the design/construction phases, and for accepting the final completed project Additional requirements include the management, administration, and technical supervision for the effective and timely accomplishment of the following functions: - Building condition assessments for each building, development of preventive maintenance schedules and required repairs/maintenance items and budgets - Establish an effective inspection/ monitoring program to effectively prevent major breakdowns and failures through scheduled adjustments, repairs or replacement - Development and maintenance of a national facilities database for CBP use and for meeting requirements of the Presidents Management Agenda. This database must be in place and fully operational no later than (NLT) June 2006. o The database must be compatible with the existing CBP facilities Systems Acquisition Process (SAP) computer system: CBP has the SAP Project Systems and Plant Maintenance modules to use for this database. The contractor will need to provide any additional SAP modules, if required, to create/maintain the database. o The contractor will provide training (classroom and written procedures) on any additional SAP modules recommended for procurement Responses to this Request For Information (RFI) will allow the CBP team to incorporate industry input into the initial stages of the program. Note: RFI responses will NOT be shared with other industry suppliers and will solely be used as part of the contract planning process. Disclaimer: The following requested information to be provided is for planning purposes only and does not constitute a Request For Proposal (RFP) nor does it restrict the Government as to the ultimate acquisition approach. The Government does not intend to award a contract on the basis of this RFI or to otherwise pay for the information solicited. Any contract that might be awarded based on information received or derived from this RFI will be the outcome of the competitive process. Please reference the question number with each response as follows: 1.

If you are unable to provide full coverage within the continental U.S./ Alaska/ Hawaii/ Puerto Rico, please designate the specific locations for which you could provide coverage. Since this is a national program, how would you propose to handle those facilities not within your coverage area? 5. How would you propose to classify maintenance or repair responses? What is your normal response time for both emergency and non-emergency repairs, and how would you ensure those response times? 6. Do you have published prices or a commercial price list for services and supplies? If available please provide a copy.
