- Description
- The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has a requirement for Security Guard Services for the Mike Monroney Aeronautical Center (MMAC), Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. The general scope of work for these Security Guard Services will require the contractor to procure armed guard services which provide physical security safeguards for FAA employees, information, facilities, United States government property and assets from loss, theft, damage, unauthorized use, criminal acts, espionage, sabotage, and terrorism. Requirements are further defined in the Performance Work Statement (PWS). The current version of the PWS is provided as a separate document under this announcement. Services will be performed at the MMAC. Interested parties are also encouraged to visit the MMAC home page, via www.faa.gov, FAA Offices, Regions & Center Operations. This acquisition will use streamlined acquisition procedures employing best practices for competitive negotiated procurements as authorized by the Federal Aviation Administration Acquisition Management System (AMS) of 1997. The contract has a potential duration of five (5) years including a base year with four (4) 1-year options. The procurement action resulting from this Announcement/SIR1 will be a set-aside for competitive award among Socially and Economically Disadvantaged Businesses (SEDBs) that are expressly certified by the SBA for participation in the SBA's 8(a) program. Only those 8(a) vendors that are certified under the SBA will be allowed to participate in this Announcement/Screening Information Request (SIR1). To be considered, a vendor must be classified as a small business under the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code 561612, Security Guards and Patrol Services - $18.5/million. Each firm claiming 8(a) status is required to provide a copy of its SBA 8(a) certification letter to the Contracting Officer with its response to this Announcement/SIR1. Firms are to submit an FAA Business Declaration form with their response to this Announcement/SIR1. The form is provided as a separate document under this announcement. The FAA reserves the right to review and verify each vendor's program eligibility. In conjunction with the set-aside nature of the requirement, at least 50 percent of the cost of contract performance incurred for personnel shall be expended for employees of the prime contractor. This requirement is found in AMS Clause 3.6.1-7, Limitation on Subcontracting. This acquisition contemplates a phased approach. This, the initial phase, involves the Announcement/SIR1 of the requirement in order to permit companies that are certified under the 8(a) program an opportunity to express an interest in this requirement. Only those firms that respond successfully to this Announcement/SIR1 will be allowed to participate in the next phase. The remaining phase(s) of the down select process will be identified in future communications with those firms that successfully respond to this Announcement/SIR1. A firm must be classified as an 8(a) firm at the time of submission of cost/price offers submitted in response to the next phase, SIR2/Request for Offeror (RFO), to be considered for contract award. Companies that are interested and possess certain special standards of responsibility are to provide specific information as to the unique capabilities to be brought to the performance of this requirement. The specific information provided must be accurate and complete because it will be used to determine each vendor's eligibility to participate. Documentation must be provided to substantiate any statement of fact that goes to the vendor's eligibility pursuant to this Announcement/SIR1. The FAA reserves the right to contact references and verify each vendor's information. Any statement included in a vendor's response that is verified by the FAA as either false or misleading will be cause for rejection. All documentation is limited to 10 pages (8-1/2"x11", printed on one side). Failure to comply with this page limitation may be cause for rejection of a vendor's response. CAUTION: FAA evaluators will read only up to the page limit as specified. Four copies are requested. Mere statements of compliance or intention to comply are unacceptable. All responses submitted must address the capability of the vendor to meet the special standards of responsibility. SPECIAL STANDARDS OF RESPONSIBILITY: The following information must be addressed in each vendor's submission in order for the FAA to determine a vendor's eligibility to participate further in any subsequent SIR. (Note: Each submission will be evaluated on an "acceptable/unacceptable" basis. Where a submission is found to be unacceptable in any area of a special standard of responsibility, the entire submission will be considered unacceptable). 1. Past Performance and Experience: (Note: Past performance represents "how well" an offeror accomplished the effort. Experience simply means an offeror has "done it." Of additional importance is that past performance and experience must be current and relevant as well as comparable in scope and magnitude to that described in the PWS.) (a) In order to be determined acceptable vendors must have five years experience in performing security guard services as identified in the attached PWS. In evaluating experience of vendors whose experience was attributed to a pre-existing or through a previous company, any such experience will be considered. Vendors shall provide a list of relevant past and present contracts performed for Federal, State, or Local Governments or commercial sources within the past five (5) years involving effort of same or similar complexity, magnitude and level. The vendor's documented experience shall consist of a list of contracts containing the following information stated below.(i)Contract number and contract type(ii)Contracting agency or business (e.g., DOD, FAA, NASA, any Federal agency, State of Oklahoma, etc.)(iii)Original contract dollar value and final contract dollar value (including options)(iv)A brief description of the contract effort(v)Largest number of employees associated with direct contract effort(vi)Name, address, telephone and FAX numbers for the Government Contracting Officer(s); for non-government contracts, provide the name, address, telephone and FAX numbers of business point of contact, liaison, etc.(b) Where inquiries made pursuant to (a)(vi) reveal the vendor's performance was unsatisfactory (e.g., terminated for default {partial or complete}, cure notice(s) issued, adverse administrative findings by government agencies at the federal, state or local level, etc.), the vendor will no longer be eligible to continue in the SIR process. 2. Organizational Management and Staffing: Vendors must document/demonstrate that they have simultaneously employed and successfully administered, tracked, and managed 75 or more full-time employees for a period not less than one (1) year. Documentation may include, but is not limited to: a spreadsheet containing a list of employees and their managers, and the contracts on which they performed, etc. Interested firms that can comply with and meet the special standards of responsibility addressed in this Announcement/SIR 1 should respond with their documentation in writing to: Federal Aviation AdministrationMike Monroney Aeronautical CenterNAS Contracting DivisionAttn: AMQ-210/Connie HouptRoom 313, Multi-Purpose Building6500 South MacArthur Blvd.Oklahoma City, OK 73169 The date and time for receipt of responses is 2:00 p.m. local time, May 21, 2010, (electronic; e.g. facsimile or e-mail, responses are not permitted).

If all requested information is not furnished, the vendor's response may be determined unacceptable; therefore, not considered as one of the qualified companies. Oral or written communications with offerors, during the screening process, will be conducted if the FAA deems communication is necessary. AMS Clause, 3.6.1-7, Limitation on Subcontracting, AMS Provision 3.2.2.3-14, Late Submissions, Modifications, and Withdrawals of Submittals, and AMS Provision 3.9.1-3, Protest, are applicable to this SIR.
