- Description
- The Transportation Security Administration (TSA)/ Department of Homeland Security (DHS) currently intends to enter a contract with Orange County Sheriff?s Range, Orlando, FL for a firearms range with the following requirements: The North American Industry Classification Code (NAICS) is 611699. Services anticipated beginning April 1, 2006 and will continue for 12 months thereafter. The contract will also contain 4 option periods to be exercised as a unilateral right of the Government. The range shall be located within a 20-minute commute from the Orlando International Airport. Commute time will be assessed in consideration of prime rush hour traffic, both in the morning and late afternoon/early evening. DHS will provide all AMMUNITION, TARGETS, FIREARMS INSTRUCTORS. The range time must be available exclusively to the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) during the hours indicated. The range must be closed to the public during the corresponding hours and the hours for use should be scheduled. The range may be indoor or outdoor. The range must possess a minimum of 25 firing points and must be able to accommodate a qualification course distance minimum of 1.5 yards and a maximum of 25 yards. The range shall possess adequate exterior lighting in both public and work areas. The range shall possess drinking fountains located near the range facilities for DHS use. The range shall be equipped with men and women?s restroom facilities with running water located near the range facilities for DHS use. The range shall provide sufficient trash receptacles for used targets, target backings, and empty ammunition boxes. The range shall be equipped for removal of used brass cartridges. The range shall provide adequate on-site parking to accommodate 25 vehicles. The range must posses an on-site classroom facility with chalkboard or dry erase board, computer, and overhead projector and seating to accommodate 25 students. The range must be able to accommodate the following calibers: 9mm, .40, .45, .357, .223, and .308 caliber ammunition. The range shall possess rifle and shotgun capabilities with a minimum distance of 200 yards. The range must allow movement between firing points and shall not restrict movement-oriented firearms training by students (i.e. standing to kneeling transitions). The range rules shall allow shooters to draw and fire from the holster. The range rules cannot disallow a student from moving in front of the firing points with an instructor present, (i.e. tactical move and shoot type drills where instructor/student ratio would be too restrictive). The range shall possess a cleaning area complete with air hose and solvent tank. DHS personnel will use the range an average of 25 days semi-annually with approximately 300,000 rounds to be shot annually. The contractor will be paid per the actual number of days used not to exceed the total available per year. DHS will schedule minimum 90 days in advance. This range must be closed or concealed from the public during the corresponding hours. Under this contract, DHS requires exclusive use of the range from 0800-1200 hours. This does not include weekends or holidays. Should weather (i.e. rain) or unforeseen circumstances prevent the use of the range, DHS will reschedule those missed days within the same month, if possible, or the following month if not possible. Note: Interested parties may identify their interest and capability to respond to this requirement or submit proposals. This notice of intent is NOT a request for competitive proposals, as the Government has determined that there is no other range facility that meets the requirements set forth above. A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed contract based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Information received will normally be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement. Questions concerning this intent can be e-mailed to: Doretta.F.Chiarlone@secureskies.net or faxed to number (609) 813-3446. The date and time of closing is Tuesday, March 28, 2006, 5:00pm EST (Eastern Standard Time).
