- Description
- The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, National Vehicle and Fuel Emissions Laboratory (NVFEL) located at 2565 Plymouth Road, Ann Arbor Michigan, requires an Indefinite Delivery / Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) Contract for Installation of Drager Gas and Aerosol Detection Sensors through Task Orders issued over a five (5) year contract performance period. The Contractor shall provide all supervision, labor, materials, tools, equipment, hardware, and documentation necessary to complete the task orders. NVFEL currently has 140 Drager gas detection sensors situated throughout the facility. These sensors monitor CO, NO2, O2, and LEL (lower explosion limit). The sensors sample the air in work areas and go into an alarm state if levels of toxic gas are detected, if oxygen levels drop too low, or if levels of combustible gas go too high. The sensors are connected to Quadgard controllers and networked to a Central Gas Detection System Computer. All sensor levels and alarms are logged on the Central Computer. The gas detection system is required to ensure that personnel are not exposed to toxic gases above the OSHA permissible exposure limits, thereby helping ensure a safe work environment. NVFEL periodically requires installation of additional gas detection sensors. Furthermore, it is envisioned that over the next five (5) years, a number of hydraulic aerosol detectors will need to be installed to detect pump leaks on hydraulic test stands. Under this IDIQ contract, the Contractor shall install gas detection sensors and hydraulic aerosol detectors as specified in task orders issued by the Contracting Officer. Work will include power wiring as well as other incidental services necessary to integrate the new installations with the existing gas detection system. An IDIQ contract is contemplated, under which firm-fixed-price task orders will be issued. It is anticipated that the contract will specify a minimum order amount of $25,000 and a maximum order amount of $750,000 over the life of the contract. Contract award will be made using best value methodology. Three evaluation factors, in addition to pricing, will be used: Technical Qualifications, Past Performance, and Response to Projected Initial Task Order. This is an unrestricted acquisition. All responsible sources may submit a proposal which will be considered by the Agency. All prospective offerors are required to be registered in the Central Contractor Registration system in order to be eligible for contract award. See the website www.ccr.gov for information about registration. The solicitation with the Contract Statement of Work and Site Visit Information will be released through the internet at the www.fedbizopps.gov website. The anticipated solicitation release date is approximately 15 calendar days after the electronic posting date of this notice. No hard copies of the solicitation will be provided. Interested parties may contact Scott Tharp, in writing, via fax (513) 487-2107 or email at Tharp.Scott@epa.gov with questions.
