- Description
- This is a SOURCES SOUGHT NOTICE to determine sources with the capability and availability to meet requirements of US Coast Guard MSU Port Arthur?s Incident Command Post (hereinafter ICP); during the 2006 Hurricane Season for the contractor to provide a facility to set up a 24/7 operational command post. The US Coast Guard Maintenance and Logistics Command Atlantic (MLCLANT) is the procuring office for this action. In an event of the possibility of a Category 2 to 5 hurricanes, during the hurricane season, US Coast Guard Port Arthur ICP; which is a 24 hour 7 day a week operational command center; will need to be stood up in to a safe location that is away from current hurricane and potential future hurricane hazards and dangers. This facility will also need to accommodate certain logistical needs in order to properly lead US Coast Guard post hurricane operations. The US Coast Guard requires a contracting vehicle to be in place that will allow us to have the ?first right? to use the facility as an ICP in an event of a Category 2 or more hurricane to hit the Gulf shore resulting in evacuation of Port Arthur, Texas or Lake Charles, LA. At least 96 hours prior to landfall of anything equal or greater than a category 2 hurricane, an advance team will be deployed to this location to set up for eventual ICP stand up. At 48 hours prior to landfall, a decision will be made to expand the operation and more personnel will be arriving. If a similar storm to Hurricane Katrina hit, this will require that USCG Port Arthur stay for an undetermined period of time, due to the inability to return to normal operations in the Port Arthur, Texas or Lake Charles, LA areas. Port Arthur will be forced to reconstitute full operations from this satellite location. The requirements for the facility are as follows: The ICP location needs to be within at least 200 miles and up to 250 miles North of MSU Port Arthur, Texas located at 2901 Turtle Creek Drive, Port Arthur, Texas. Hospitals must be near by in addition to other basic amenities (commercial airport, availability of food) if the Coast Guard cannot return to their office in Port Arthur. Office space/conference rooms - four office/conference rooms to house a day/night, 24-hour watch. One of the rooms must be able to accommodate approximately 10,000 square feet and the other three rooms must be no smaller than 120 square feet. The 10,000 square feet office space/conference room must be able to accommodate or have the potential to accommodate 30 phone/fax lines and 20 internet connections spread out in the room. The three smaller conference rooms (no smaller than 120 square feet) must be able to accommodate or have the potential to accommodate 5 phone lines and 5 computer lines. The Coast Guard must have the flexibility to increase the amount of lines needed as the operation grows. The facility shall provide tables and chairs for at least 100 people. The 10,000 square feet conference room must be able to accommodate or have the potential to have 20 electric outlets distributed throughout the room. The other three smaller conference rooms must be able to accommodate or have the potential to accommodate 5 electric outlets distributed throughout each room. Up to 150 hotel rooms may also be needed, therefore the operational facility must be within walking distance (1/2 mile) from hotels that could accommodate this number of rooms. Parking will be needed for up to 200 vehicles. The office/conference facility should be near locations or have the capability to serve full nutritious meals for breakfast, lunch and dinner and midnight rations (finger food) service. It is the Coast Guard?s intent to issue a IDIQ (indefinite delivery indefinite quantity) to obtain services. Interested sources should provide the following information via to the address below.
