- Description
- 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 W91278-06-C-0003, a competitively awarded Cost-Reimbursable Plus Award-Fee contract for the Operation and Maintenance of Government-Owned Facilities and Equipment, West Point Project, West Point 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 to add the installation of new windows and doors in the visitors center at the powerhouse. This work will include removing existing doors and windows, installing split door frame, doors, and all associated hardware. They will also install new heat reflective windows. This work is within the scope of the original contract technical provisions that includes maintaining and repairing, roads, 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 inspection, maintenance, and repair of all project buildings, structures, and roads in 31 recreation areas, three operations areas, and the Project Management Office; 2) The scheduling, coordination, quality control 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 to efficiently and effectively accomplish this work at a reasonable cost, but also the advantage of the flexibility to readily adjust to any unforeseen circumstance encountered during the job; 3) This contract enables work to begin immediately after and during inspections without a detailed scope of work and thus minimizes the time the facilities are closed, restricting public access to camping and recreation areas. The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) contains 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.
