- Description
- RECOVERY THIS NOTICE IS FOR PROVIDED FOR INFORMATION PURPOSES ONLY. The Mobile District Corps of Engineers intends to issue a modification using Recovery Act funding to contract number W91278-05-C-0046, a competitively awarded Cost-Reimbursable Plus Award-Fee (CPAF) contract for the Operation and Maintenance of Government-Owned Facilities and Equipment, Woodruff/Seminole Site Office, Chattahoochee, Florida, awarded to Anderson Construction Company, 58 Crozier Lane, Fort Gaines, Georgia. Utilizing American Recovery and Reinvestment Act funds, the modification will increase the level of effort originally contracted for, to add the following work: reroof the Site Management Office. This work is within the scope of the original contract technical provisions and includes maintaining and repairing buildings, structures, facilities, and their mechanical, electrical, plumbing, sewage and water systems. Contract clauses required for projects involving Recovery Act funds have been incorporated into the existing contract. The existing contract must be used for the following reasons: 1) The contractor is responsible for the complete inspection, maintenance, and repair of all project buildings and structures in 12 recreation areas, three operations areas, the Woodruff/Seminole Site Management Office, Jim Woodruff Powerhouse, as well as all equipment and vehicles to support the effort. 2) The scheduling, coordination, quality assurance and/or subcontracting for the work to be performed are within the scope of the original contract technical provisions and must be accomplished under the terms of the existing contract. The incumbent contractor has not only the management, technical, and administrative skills to efficiently and effectively accomplish this work at a reasonable cost, but also, the advantage of the flexibility to readily adjust to any unforeseen obstacles encountered during installation. The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) contains specific acquisition requirements that must be met when using appropriated funds from the Act, including the need for acquisitions to be in accordance with the FAR and, to the maximum extent practicable, awarded as fixed-price (FP) contracts using competitive procedures. However, the Office of Management and Budget's guidance allows for the use of other than FP contracts. Although Mobile District's contract was not awarded as a FP contract, it was awarded competitively as a small business set aside, and the contract type was selected to provide the contractor with the greatest incentive for efficient and economical performance, given the types of services to be performed. The existing Operation and Maintenance contract has experienced personnel and documented performance to mitigate the Government's risk. Also, sub-contracts will be awarded as fixed price and every attempt made to award to firms within the area. In order to meet the requirements of the act in the most prudent business manner within the time constraints imposed, existing Operation and Maintenance contracts are the most appropriate contractual vehicles consistent with Agency plans that promote the goals of the ARRA.
