- Description
- ECOVERY THIS NOTICE IS PROVIDED FOR INFORMATION PURPOSES ONLY. The Mobile District Corps of Engineers intends to issue a modification using Recovery Act funding to contract number DACW01-03-C-0017, a competitively awarded Cost-Plus Award-Fee contract for the Operation and Maintenance of Government-Owned Facilities and Equipment, Walter F George Lake, ACF Rivers Project, Fort Gaines Georgia, 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: 1) Construct approximately mile of sewage line from terminus of Ft. Gaines, GA system to Cotton Hill Campground; 2) Approximately mile of water line from terminus of Clay County, GA municipal system to Cotton Hill Campground; 3) Purchase materials to extend sewage lines throughout Cotton Hill Campground. This work is to be accomplished in conjunction with upgrades to electrical, water and sewage systems in the interior of Cotton Hill described in another package. 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) A detailed scope of work can not be prepared. The extent of the work and the resources needed cannot be fully determined prior to starting the work, because conditions are different at each area. 2) The contractor is responsible for the complete inspection, maintenance, and repair of all project buildings and structures in 17 recreation areas, three operations areas, and the Project Management Office. 3) 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 not only has the management, technical, and administrative skills too 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. 4) This contract enables repairs to begin immediately after and during inspections without a detailed scope of work and thus minimizes the time the facilities are closed and the impact on public access to camping and recreation during the busiest season of the year. The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) contain specific acquisition requirements that must be met when using funds appropriated by the Act. Acquisitions must comply with FAR, and to the maximum extent practicable, be awarded under competitive procedures as fixed-price (FP) contracts. The Mobile District intends to use the current CPAF contract to meet it requirements. Though not a FP contract, it was awarded competitively as a small business set aside. 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. Furthermore, the existing Operation and Maintenance contractor has experienced personnel that are already on site and ready to perform the work. Accordingly, it is deemed to be in the best interest of the government and in compliance with the goals of the Recovery Act to use the existing Operation and Maintenance contract to accomplish the requirements listed above.
