- The Naval Surface Warfare Center, Dahlgren Division, on behalf of the Naval Sea Systems Command and the Navy Virtual SYSCOM (partners NAVSUP, NAVAIR, SPAWAR and NAVFAC) and other Navy activities, is conducting a rolling admission per the terms and conditions of the SeaPort Enhanced (Seaport-e) Multiple Award Contracts. The purpose of this rolling admission is to expand contract coverage and add the Defense Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA) as an authorized ordering office. This rolling admission will result in the award of additional Indefinite-Delivery/Indefinite-Quantity (ID/IQ) prime contracts. Existing Seaport-e prime contractors will also have the opportunity to expand their presence in other geographical zones to allow them to compete for Task Order awards in those zones. The NAICS code for this procurement is 541330 and the revenue size standard for Small Business is $25 Million. Current Seaport-e contracts have the following characteristics: -Offers are evaluated on Best Value -ID/IQ contracts with Firm-Fixed-Price (FFP), Fixed-Price- Incentive (FPI), Cost-Plus-Fixed-Fee (CPFF), Cost-Plus- Incentive-Fee (CPIF), and Cost-Plus-Award-Fee (CPAF) type Task Orders. No Time-and-Material (T&M) task orders are allowed. -All requirements are fulfilled competitively on a task order basis by individual ordering offices. -Heavy emphasis is placed on Performance Based Orders -Seaport-e program goal is to award 33 percent of total obligated dollars to small businesses as prime contractors. -Large business awards have a minimum Small Business Subcontracting Goal of 20 percent of the dollars obligated. -Only one ID/IQ contract award is allowed for individual companies as a Prime; however a contractor may be a subcontractor to multiple Primes. -Task Orders are competed in one of seven geographic zones (Northeast, National Capital, Mid-Atlantic, Gulf Coast, Midwest, Pacific Northwest, and Southwest) based on the place of performance for the solicited requirements. -Task orders are competed in the zone that is the principal place of performance. -The basic ID/IQ contracts limits pass-through charges, caps maximum fees, annual escalation, and requires cost savings. Awards made during the rolling admission process will have the same or similar characteristics. Oral proposals will not be conducted. Awards will be made on initial offers without discussions.
