Description

Missile Relocation Combined Synopsis/Solicitation This is a combined synopsis/solicitation for commercial items prepared in accordance with the format in FAR Subpart 12.6, as supplemented with additional information included in this notice. This announcement constitutes the only solicitation; quotes are being requested and a written solicitation will not be issued. This solicitation is issued as a Request for Quotation (RFQ), solicitation number FA7000-08-T-0084, in accordance with FAR Parts 12 and 13. This solicitation document and incorporated provisions and clauses are those in effect through Federal Acquisition Circular 2005-09, 19 Apr 06. The North American Industrial Classification System (NAICS) number is 484230 and the business size standard is $23.5 mil. This is 100% small business set-aside. The U.S. Air Force Academy, Colorado Springs, Colorado has a requirement to re-locate a Minuteman III missile static display approximately 3 miles to another static display location on Academy property. Performance period is date of award to 21 May 2008 (preferred), or 1 – 30 June 2008. The contractor must possess specialized knowledge, skill and experience dismantling, rigging, loading, transporting, unloading and re-mounting missiles/aircraft. Supervision, labor, equipment, crane, transportation and materials shall be provided by the contractor. The contractor must have in-transit and on-site erection insurance to be submitted prior to start of work. The missile is currently located in the parking lot of the cadet athletic arena, Bldg. 2169, and is to be moved to the B-52 overlook area near the north gate. Missile height is 60 feet. Diameter is 5.5 feet. Initially, the missile must be inspected by the contractor to insure structural integrity and ability to be re-located as a static display. If the missile is deemed not structurally sound for re-mounting, the contractor shall provide the Government a written report of findings. In such case, the missile shall be moved by the contractor to an on-base storage location and a price adjustment will be negotiated as appropriate. If the missile is deemed structurally sound for re-mounting, it will be installed on the already constructed base near the B-52 overlook near the north gate. Minor cosmetic work will not be completed by the contractor as part of this requirement. The contractor is required to coordinate with Academy Security Forces and Construction Management.

When requested, the ombudsman will maintain strict confidentiality as to the source of the concern. The existence of the ombudsman does not affect the authority of the program manager, contracting officer, or source selection official. Further, the ombudsman does not participate in the evaluation of proposals, the source selection process, or the adjudication of protests or formal contract disputes. The ombudsman may refer the party to another official who can resolve the concern. (b) Before consulting with an ombudsman, interested parties must first address their concerns, issues, disagreements, and/or recommendations to the contracting officer for resolution. Consulting an ombudsman does not alter or postpone the timelines for any other processes (e.g., agency level bid protests, GAO bid protests, requests for debriefings, employee-employer actions, contests of OMB Circular A-76 competition performance decisions). (c) If resolution cannot be made by the contracting officer, concerned parties may contact the USAF Academy Ombudsmen, Isabel L.

(End of clause) AFFARS 5352.223-9001, Health and Safety on Government Installations. AFFARS 5352.242-9500, Contractor Access to Air Force Installations (a) Security Requirements. The Contractor shall adhere to the installation security requirements as provided for in AFI 31-601, Industrial Security Program Management, and the United States Air Force Academy (USAFA) Supplement to AFI 31-601. When work under this contract requires unescorted entry to controlled or restricted areas, the Contractor shall comply with AFI 31-101, Volume 1, The Air Force Installation Security Program, and AFI 31-501, Personnel Security Program Management, as applicable. (b) The Contractor shall submit a letter to the Contracting Officer specifying the personnel authorized to sign a USAFA Form O-111 requesting a Contractor Identification Badge or vehicle pass. The Contractor shall submit a USAFA Form O-111 on each employee requiring access to an installation. [The Contracting Officer or Sponsoring Official will endorse the request and forward a copy to the issuing base pass and registration office or security forces for processing. The individual requiring the badge will hand-carry the original Form O-111 to the issuing base pass and registration office or Security Forces for processing.] When reporting to the registration office to obtain a vehicle pass, the authorized Contractor individual(s) should also provide a valid driver's license, current vehicle registration, valid vehicle insurance certificate, and any documents required by local Security Forces procedures. (c) In lieu of USAFA Form O-111, Application For Personnel And Vehicle Passes To Work Under Air Force Contract, or a temporary AF FM 75, Visitor Pass, the Contractor shall obtain Contractor Identification Badges and/or vehicle passes for all Contractor personnel who make frequent visits (i.e., more than 7 visits per calendar year) to perform work on the Air Force installation(s) cited in the contract. Contractor personnel are required to prominently display their Contractor Identification Badges in a visible location above their waist while visiting or performing work on the installation. The Contracting Office may restrict the Contractor’s employees from accessing the installation(s) until Contractor Identification Badges and vehicle passes are obtained. (d) During performance of the contract, the Contractor shall be responsible for obtaining required identification for newly assigned personnel and for prompt return of credentials and vehicle passes for any employee who no longer requires access to the work site. Credentials and vehicle passes shall be returned to the issuing office within 5 calendar days after the employee no longer requires access to the work site. (e) Background Checks. All employees of the Contractor shall comply with USAFA security requirements while on the installation. Prior to Contractor personnel working on USAFA installation properties, the Contractor and all Contractor personnel shall agree to USAFA conducting a criminal background check. USAFA Security Forces shall conduct the criminal background check accessing the appropriate state crime information center and national crime information center database to include, but not limited to any state listed by the employee as current and past addresses. (f) Convictions. Based on the results of the background check, any felony conviction in the past ten (10) years involving violence, weapons, explosives, physical assault, espionage, illegal drugs, theft or any violations of immigration and naturalization laws shall constitute indisputable grounds for the Contracting Officer, with coordination from the 10th Air Base Wing Commander, to immediately require removal of the employee from the effort under this contract. For convictions more than ten (10) years ago, the Contractor may recommend retaining the employee. Any misdemeanor conviction in the past five (5) years involving the same offenses as stated above shall constitute indisputable grounds, with coordination from the 10th Air Base Wing Commander, to immediately remove the employee from effort under this contract. Employees removed by the Contracting Officer may also be subject to barment from entering the USAFA. The Contractor may appeal the barment through the 10th Security Forces Squadron Commander to the 10th Air Base Wing Commander who may rescind the barment and permit the contractor employee to work on the installation. The Contracting Officer shall be immediately notified of all such cases, and the Contracting Officer may require the Contractor to restrict the employee’s use on this contract until the case is resolved. This action does not relieve the Contractor from complete and satisfactory performance of the contract tasks specified herein. (g) Warrants. If during the course of Contractor Identification Badge processing, any Contractor personnel are found to have an outstanding warrant, Security Forces may detain the contractor employee and may notify the appropriate law enforcement authorities. The 10th Air Base Wing Commander may issue a barment letter based upon the gravity of the offenses surrounding the warrant. However, the Contractor may appeal the barment through the 10th Security Forces Squadron Commander to the 10th Air Base Wing Commander who may rescind the barment and permit the contractor employee to work on the installation. The Contracting Officer shall be immediately notified by the prime contractor of all such cases, and the Contracting Officer may require the Contractor to restrict the employee’s use on this contract until the case is resolved. (h) Prior to use of an employee on this contract, the Contractor shall validate that the employee is a United States citizen or holds a valid resident alien status. If the employee is not a United States citizen, the Contractor shall validate the individual’s proof of alien registration with the Immigration and Customs Enforcement Service. The Contractor will cooperate in the Security Forces’ processing of its employees for Contractor Identification Badges for access to the USAFA under this contract. (i) If this contract requires that any of the Contractor's personnel must submit to a National Agency Check (NAC) background check, the Government shall bear the expense of that background check. In that event, the Contractor agrees to fully cooperate in the processing of the NAC background check. Those employees shall also be subject to the background check required for issuing a Contractor Identification Badge, as described above. (j) Removal of Contractor Employees. The Government reserves the right to direct the removal of an employee for substantiated misconduct (has the potential to jeopardize the mission, put themselves or others at risk, etc.) or security reasons. This action does not relieve the Contractor from complete and satisfactory performance of the contract tasks specified herein. (k) Upon completion or termination of the contract or expiration of the Contractor Access Identification, the prime Contractor shall ensure that all Contractor Identification Badges and vehicle passes issued to employees and subcontractor employees are returned to the issuing office within 21 calendar days. (l) Failure to comply with these requirements may result in withholding of payment. (m) All references to Contractor above include the Contractor and Subcontractors.
