- Description
- It is estimated that the solicitation for this project will be posted on or around June 20, 2013 and responses will be due on or around July 31, 2013. The Malheur National Forest requires stewardship services on the Prairie City, Blue Mountain, and Emigrant Creek Ranger Districts, in Grant and Harney County, Oregon (located in the eastern portion of the state). The resultant contract will be a IDIQ stewardship contract utilizing the authority granted unde Section 347 Omnibus Consolidated Appropriations Act of FY 1999, as Amended by Sec. 323 of P.L. 108-7, 2003. The intent of this contract is to complete crucial restoration work accomplished through commercial product removal and forestry related service work activities while assisting local economies. The Contractor shall furnish all labor, materials, equipment, supervision, tools, transportation, operating supplies, and incidentals necessary to perform the work in accordance with the specifications, provisions, and clauses of the subsequent contract. Restoration work may include, leave tree marking, road maintenance/reconstruction; removing commercial and non-commercial vegetation to promote healthy forest stands, reducing fire hazards, or achieving other land management objectives; restoring and maintaining wildlife and fish habitat; and controlling noxious and exotic weeds and re-establishing native plant species. Work to be performed will depend upon product value removed and available funding. The Government may issue task orders against the base contract and these activities will either be paid with appropriated funds, other funds, or the value of the products removed will be traded for the restoration activities. Each task order will be negotiated with the prime contractor using the contractor's detailed cost breakdown, market research from similar projects in the geographical area and by comparing the cost to the Contractor's unit prices from the base contract. This solicitation will result in an arrangement of a single award, Indefinite Delivery, Indefinite Quantity, (IDIQ) performance-based, contract spanning ten (10) years from the date of contract award. Pricing of work on a ton or level -of-effort basis will be used for determining price reasonableness for award purposes. The Government cannot predetermine the precise quantities that will be ordered during the contract period, but the maximum quantity of products to be removed could be about 3,500,000 green tons. Project Location: Acres of restoration treatments to be performed may range between 180,000 and 500,000 acres over the 10 year period of the contract. This project will be advertised as a written request for proposal (RFP) and will be solicited under FAR Part 15, Contracting by Negotiations. Section M of the solicitation will list the evaluation criteria (including the evaluation factors and sub-factors, and the importance of each factor) for this procurement.

There will be a pre-proposal conference and a date will be determined. This proposed procurement is unrestricted pursuant to Stewardship Authority. The NAICS Code is: 113310.
