- SOURCES SOUGHT NOTICENASA's John F. Kennedy Space Center is hereby soliciting information about potentialsources for Electrical Design and Engineering Services.No solicitation exists; therefore, do not request a copy of the solicitation. If asolicitation is released it will be synopsized in FedBizOpps and on the NASA AcquisitionInternet Service. It is the potential offerors responsibility to monitor these sitesfor the release of any solicitation or synopsis. Telephone calls will not be considered.INTRODUCTION The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) at the John F. Kennedy SpaceCenter (KSC) is soliciting information about potential sources for Design, Engineering,Construction Support and other Professional Services Required to Demolish, Rehabilitate,Modernize, or Provide New Electrical Facilities and Systems at Kennedy Space Center(KSC), Florida; Cape Canaveral Air Force Station (CCAFS), Florida; and Vandenberg AirForce Base (VAFB), California. Vendors having the capabilities necessary to meet orexceed the stated requirements are invited to submit capability packages, appropriatedocumentation and references. This Sources Sought is a market research tool only and will be used to determinepotential and eligible small business firms capable of providing these services prior todetermining the method of acquisition and issuance of a Request for Proposal (RFP). Therefore, all interested parties are encouraged to respond. The North American IndustryClassification System (NAICS) Code is 541330, Engineering Services, which has a SmallBusiness Size Standard of $4.5 million.NASAs Kennedy Space Center (KSC) intends to award one or more Indefinite-DeliveryIndefinite-Quantity (IDIQ) contracts in accordance with the Brooks Act as implemented inthe Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Subpart 36.6, for Electrical Design andEngineering Services related to any NASA program requirement. Each awarded contract willhave a five year ordering period with a minimum value of $1,000 which represents theminimum value of work the Government is required to order and the contractor shalldeliver under the IDIQ contract. The maximum quantity the Government may order and thecontractor may deliver for the Electrical Engineering and Design Services will be$10,000,000. Task orders issued against the IDIQ contracts prior to their expiration mayextend for up to one year beyond the ordering period of the IDIQ contracts, as determinedby the Contracting Officer.In the event multiple Indefinite-Delivery Indefinite-Quantity (IDIQ) contracts areawarded, task orders will be competed between the contractor awardees, see FAR 16.505(b).In accordance with FAR Clause 52.219-9, Small Business Subcontracting Plan, largebusinesses will be required to provide subcontracting plans prior to receipt ofindividual task orders expecting to exceed $550,000 and having subcontractingopportunities.SCOPE OF WORK This contract will include tasks which involve essential and/or substantial effort inelectrical systems, equipment, and facilities.The professional services required forthis project will include, but will not be limited to, conducting field investigations,surveys, testing and analysis of existing or planned electrical work and support systems,preparing engineering reports of recommended actions, and/or preparing final designssuitable for competitive bidding. All design packages prepared by the A&E firm shallutilize computer aided design and analysis, use SpecsIntact (SI) specifications, andinclude detailed cost estimates. Approved designs will be utilized for the advertisingand award of fixed price construction contracts. The A&E shall have demonstratedspecialized experience performing alternative studies including cost-benefit analysis andlife cycle costing; study or report compilation; parametric cost estimating; detailedtake-off cost estimating and subsequent performance against bids received. The selectedA&E firm must have the capacity to provide all the personnel to perform all the workidentified and the capacity to work multiple projects at the same time. The selected A&Efirm's project staff must include, as a minimum, registered professional engineers andspecialists who have demonstrated specialized experience in the following specificdisciplines: electrical power, fire alarm, electronic security, and control systems. Additionally, any required architectural, survey, civil, structural, environmental, fireprotection, or mechanical registered professionals and specialists must also be availableto perform any ancillary design work related to the electrical project. Forstate-regulated permits, the A&E shall have staff with professional engineering licensesin the State of Florida.SPECIFIC INFORMATION SOLICITED It is requested that interested firms having the capabilities necessary to meet or exceedall aspects of the effort described herein, submit to the contracting office aCapabilities Statement package demonstrating ability to perform the services listedabove.
