- Description
- RECOVERY THIS NOTICE IS PROVIDED FOR INFORMATION PURPOSES ONLY; THEREFORE FAR 5.203 DOES NOT APPLY. THIS OPPORTUNITY IS AVAILABLE ONLY TO CONTRACTOR UNDER THE CURRENT CONTRACT NUMBER: W91278-09-C-0020, R & D Maintenance Service, Inc., 409 N Main St., Hennessey, OK 73742-1017. Using Recovery Act funding, the Mobile District Corps of Engineers intends to issue a modification to contract number W91278-09-C-0020, a competitively awarded Cost-Reimbursable Plus Award-Fee contract for the Operation and Maintenance of Government-Owned Facilities and Equipment, Tennessee Tombigbee Waterway, Alabama and Mississippi, awarded to R&D Maintenance Services, Inc. North American Industry Classification Systems Code (NAICS) 561210 applies to the contract. Contract clauses required for projects involving Recovery Act funds were previously added to the basic contract. The contractor will: perform building rehab services including construction of a new restroom at Vienna Public Use Area to replace the restroom that burned, remove old standby generators and install new units, install danger signs at spillways, replace sewer manholes and convert one restroom to waterborne. The modification will also incorporate contract clauses required for projects involving Recovery Act funds. This existing contract must be used because: 1) A detailed scope of work can not be prepared. The extent of the work and the resources required can not be fully determined prior to removal of old units. 2) This contract enables work to begin immediately after and even during the inspections without a detailed scope of work so as to minimize the time the facilities are closed thus minimizing the impact on the visiting public, commercial shipping and the economy. The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) contains specific acquisition requirements that must be met when using Recovery Act funds, including compliance with the Federal Acquisition Regulation, and, to the maximum extent practicable, making fixed-price (FP) contract awards 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. 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 for the work anticipated under this modification.
