Description

This is a combined synopsis/solicitation for commercial items prepared in accordance with Federal Acquisition Regulations Subpart 12.6, as supplemented with additional information included in this notice. This announcement constitutes the only solicitation. Proposals are being requested and a written solicitation will not be issued. The solicitation number is HSTS07-09-R-00138 which is issued as a Request for Proposal (RFP). This requirement will be an unrestricted acquisition. The proposed contract will be for one year. The North American Industry Classification Code (NAICS) is 611699. Services anticipated range service to begin no later than August 1, 2009. The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has a requirement for a firing range to conduct mandatory quarterly qualifications and other firearms training. The range facility must be indoors; located in close proximity to a major trauma facility and within an hour drive to Romulus, Michigan. The proposed range must meet various standards to qualify. The range must be an indoor facility closed to the public or shall provide privacy from public view during the corresponding hours. The range must possess a minimum of ten (10) lanes. The range must be a least 25 yards in length. The range must possess moveable barricades for the 25 and 15 yard line course of fire. The range must possess a public address system. The range must have targets, which simultaneously move back and forth as well as rotate. The range must be able to accommodate all handgun calibers as well as frangible ammunition for steel targets. The range rules cannot disallow movement between firing points or restrict movement-oriented firearms training firing points by students (i.e. standing to kneeling transitions). The range rules cannot disallow students from drawing and firing from the holster. The range rules cannot disallow students from multiple and rapid-fire drills. The range rules cannot disallow a student from moving in front of the firing points with an instructor present, (i.e. tactical move and shoot type drills where instructor/student ratio would be too restrictive). DHS employees are not authorized to sign a Hold Harmless Clause/Agreement. The range must possess a storage area dedicated to FAMS firearms instructors and agents. The indoor range must possess a ventilation system that conforms to existing OSHA standards. The estimated days of range usage are 24 days per quarter; at least seven (7) hours per day. The estimated number of rounds fired per quarter is 53,000. A 35-40 ft. (government owned) CONEX box is required to be stored at the range site. Special targets, aircraft seats, range equipment and other equipment deemed necessary such as field targets, barricades, and other shooting equipment will be stored in this unit. The CONEX box will also be used to store frangible ammunition. The proposed contract will be for (1) year. The method of payment shall be invoiced monthly.
