- Description
- The Environmental Security Technology Certification Program (ESTCP) is the Department of Defense (DoD) demonstration and validation program for environmental technologies. The ESTCP Office is interested in receiving pre-proposals for innovative environmental technology demonstrations that address DoD requirements as candidates for funding beginning in Fiscal Year 2010. This notice constitutes a Broad Agency Announcement (BAA) as contemplated in FAR 6.102(d)(2). Proposers should state in their pre-proposal that it is submitted in response to this BAA. Readers should note that this is an announcement to declare ESTCP's intent to competitively fund demonstration and validation projects as described in the ESTCP Program Announcement at www.estcp.org/opportunities. No request for proposals (RFP), solicitation, or other announcement of this opportunity will be made. Awards will take the form of contracts. Before preparing a pre-proposal, potential proposers should read the information provided in the Program Announcement for details regarding the program's objectives, proposal submission requirements, deadlines, and the evaluation of proposals. ESTCP is seeking proposals for environmental technologies in the following topics only: 1) Remediation of Contaminated Groundwater; 2) In Situ Management of Contaminated Sediments; 3) Characterization, Control, and Treatment of Range Contamination; 4) Military Munitions Detection, Discrimination, and Remediation; and 5) Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy for DoD Installations Awardees under this BAA will be selected through a two-stage review process. To be eligible for consideration, readers wishing to respond to this announcement must submit a pre-proposal in accordance with the Instructions on the web site, no later than 4:00 PM Eastern Time on Thursday, March 5, 2009. It is strongly recommended that pre-proposals be sent via overnight carrier or certified mail to document and ensure receipt. Pre-proposals sent via fax or electronic mail will be rejected. The cover page must be completed and entered via the web site at https://sems.serdp-estcp.org in the format specified in the Instructions. The pre-proposal review step allows interested organizations to get initial Government feedback on their technologies without incurring the expense of a full proposal. A request for submission of a full proposal does not indicate a decision has been made to make an award for that work. The government will not pay for any costs associated with the preparation of proposals, travel to present oral presentations in support of the proposals, nor initial preparation and submission of a project plan. Based upon the pre-proposal evaluation by the Government, each of the pre-proposal submitters will be notified as to whether the Government encourages or does not encourage the submission of a full proposal. Instructions for preparing a full proposal will be provided at the time of notification. Based on evaluation of the written full proposal, each proposal submitter will be notified as to whether the Government wishes to enter into negotiation for the award of a contract. Offerors are advised that only the Contracting Officer is legally authorized to commit the Government. Furthermore, ESTCP reserves the right to select for award any, all, part, or none of the proposals received. There is no commitment by ESTCP to make any contract awards, nor to be responsible for any money expended by the offeror before contract award is made for a demonstration. Multiple awards may be made to address a particular topic area. It is expected that awards totaling approximately $3.0 million will result depending on availability of funds. For awards to be made as contracts, evaluation shall include the extent of commitment in providing meaningful subcontracting opportunities for small business, HUD Zone small business, small disadvantaged business, woman owned small business concerns, historically black colleges and universities, and minority institutions. The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code is 541712 with the small business size standard of 500 employees. In addition, contract proposals that exceed $550,000 submitted by all but small business concerns must be accompanied by a Small, Small Disadvantaged and Woman-Owned, Small Business Subcontracting Plan in accordance with FAR 52.219-9. The HECSA Small Business Office web site at http://www.hecsa.usace.army.mil/hxsb/ provides information on how to prepare a subcontracting plan, along with links to find small businesses to participate.
