- Description
- This pre-solicitation notice is to notify vendors that The National Institutes of Health (NIH) plans to solicit offers to operate a new food service facility for the purpose of dispensing food, nonalcoholic beverages, and providing catering services for events, in accordance with the terms and conditions specified within the Request for Proposal (RFP). The Government anticipates awarding a no-cost to the Government contract. This will be a performance-based contract for a base period of five (5) years with the Government having the unilateral option to extend services for two one-year options. The contractor shall establish and operate in the contractor's name, the food service facilities to be located at 5601 Fishers Lane in the Twinbrook neighborhood of Rockville, MD. This cafeteria will be operated in a new, state of the art facility, currently under construction, for the benefit of approximately 2,200 Federal occupants who will be relocating in two phases from Rockville and Bethesda. Agency anticipates approximately 200 visitors will arrive daily to attend seminars, meetings and other functions. The government will make an award to the responsible offeror whose offer conforms to the RFP and is most advantageous to the Government. The Government intends to evaluate offers and award a contract without discussions with offerors. Therefore, the offeror's initial offer should contain the offeror's best terms from a price and technical standpoint. However, the Government reserves the right to conduct discussions if later determined by the Contracting Officer to be necessary. This procurement will be issued as a full and open competition. The estimated start date is June 1, 2013. The NAICS code for this requirement is 722310 with a size standard of $35.5 million dollars. Proposals will be evaluated on factors listed in the forthcoming solicitation. The solicitation will be available on or about December 2, 2013; the actual date for receipt of proposals will be stated in the solicitation. The solicitation will be available for download through the Federal Business Opportunities (FBO) (fedbizopps.gov) website. All interested vendors must be registered with this website in order to download the solicitation and amendments. Offerors will be responsible for downloading the solicitation and for monitoring FBO for amendments and/or additional information. NOTE: Please refrain from submitting any questions at this time, as NIH will not be answering any questions prior to the release of the RFP. The Department is in the process of finalizing the requirement. Any information about a pre-proposal conference will be included in the RFP.
