The MATOCs will primarily be used for fuels reduction projects in the states of Arizona, Colorado, Montana, New Mexico, Oklahoma, Texas, Utah, and Wyoming. THIS SOLICITATION IS A 100% TOTAL SET ASIDE FOR SMALL BUSINESSES ONLY. Offers will NOT be accepted from concerns that are not small businesses. The total combined capacity of the MATOCs awarded shall not exceed $100 million dollars. Each MATOC awarded shall be for a one year base period, and four one-year option periods for a total of five years. For each awarded MATOC, there is a $4 million dollar maximum for the base year, and a $4 million maximum for each option year should the options be exercised. At least two (2), and up to five (5) MATOCs may be awarded under this solicitation. For the first year, the Government hereby obligates itself to obtain not less than $2,000.00 in services for each awarded MATOC, and $2,000 in services per MATOC for each option year exercised. Task orders will typically be competed among all MATOC awardees by soliciting bids or proposals in accordance with the concepts and procedures of FAR Part 16. The minimum order amount will be $2,000 and the maximum order amount will be $1,000,000. Task orders will generally range in value from $25,000 to $250,000. The Government is solely responsible for the decision to solicit competition for a particular task order, or to award it on a sole-source basis if circumstances justify. Determination of the best procurement method for performing task order work will remain solely at the discretion of the Government. Task orders will generally be awarded as firm-fixed price contracts, but under appropriate circumstances, labor-hour/time-and-material awards may be required. Competition for task orders will be based on "Best Value" or Low Price. Each task order will be awarded pursuant to FAR 16.505, and in accordance with the provisions contained within the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009. The specific type of award will be designated in the task order solicitation. The rules and pricing guidance of FAR Part 16 will be applicable to all task orders. The general scopes of the task orders may include any of the following: mechanical fuels reduction services and related activities, wildfire hazard reduction, prescribed burning and mop-up, and related services, including cutting, slashing, chipping, and hand piling of vegetation, vegetation manipulation, burn unit preparation, prescribed burning and mop-up in compliance with its terms, specifications and provisions. This includes the contractor formulating and preparing written burn plans for submission and approval by the COR; determining when specific burn units are within prescription parameters through field checks of fuel moisture percentages; providing all required crew members, supervision and making all prescribed burn operational decisions ranging from determining that site specific unit conditions are within approved burn plan parameters, through ignition and holding operations, mop-up and patrol until released by the COR. This includes furnishing labor, supervision, transportation, operating supplies, and incidentals to perform all work necessary to conduct slashing, girdling, lop and scatter, selective slashing, pruning, fuel modification zone construction, hand piling and cover, prescribed fire plan preparation, fireline construction and maintenance, fuels pullback, prescribed burning and mop-up, additional mop-up, snag felling, roadblock removal/restoration, requested holding and mop-up. The NAICS for this acquisition is 115310, with a size standard of $7 Million Dollars. Up to Five (5) MATOCs may be awarded under this solicitation to the most highly qualified offerors. A seed task order will be used to evaluate the technical approach submission criteria. The evaluation factors in order of importance will be Past Experience, Past Performance, and Technical Approach. When combined, the Technical Proposals will be more important than price. The proposal offering the best value for the seed task order will receive the award for the first task order. The solicitation will be issued on or about 5 June 2009 and proposals will be due on or about 6 July 2009. Award is anticipated in July 2009.
