- Description
- THIS NOTICE IS NOT A REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL (RFP). The purpose of this Request for Information (RFI) is to collect Market Research Information and industry expertise for the purpose of gathering market research which may or may not be used to develop a Performance Work Statement (PWS), or Statement of Objectives (SOO). The Government considers information on market capabilities, common industry standards, latest technological advances, commercial terms and conditions, timelines for adaption and integration, pricing, and possible suppliers and sources to be helpful. All feedback and information received may be used to determine the appropriate acquisition strategy for a possible future acquisition. This notice is issued solely for market research and planning purposes and does not constitute a request for proposal, request for quote, or invitation to bid, nor does its issuance in any way restrict the Government as to its ultimate acquisition approach. No award will be made from this RFI and the Government will not pay for any effort expended in responding to this notice. Responses: Contractors are encouraged to submit information for the questions that follow. This RFI is prepared for planning purposes only and is not restricted to small business. Sources are discouraged from submitting any information deemed competition-sensitive or proprietary. However, if sources elect to submit competition-sensitive or proprietary information, sources bear sole responsibility for marking said information as such to ensure appropriate safeguarding by the Government. The Government shall not be held liable for any damages incurred if proprietary information is not properly identified. All submissions become Government property and will not be returned. RFI responses on company letterhead are requested for submission electronically. All questions and responses shall be submitted, via e-mail to 148FW.MSC@ang.af.mil. After review of the responses to this RFI, if the Government plans to proceed with an acquisition, a solicitation will be published on Federal Business Opportunities (www.fedbizops.gov). It is the potential offeror's responsibility to monitor this site for a future synopsis/solicitation, as they will not be notified. Request for Information/Questions: The 148th FW is considering replacing/updating the main gate. The following items shall be considered when identifying costs associated for this project: - Aesthetics - Structural Integrity - Automation Request information on feasibility, estimated cost of acquisition, and possible innovative solutions. - What types of gates are presently available on the market? - What technological solutions exist? - What price levels are associated with those solutions? - If contracted, what would be an estimated timeline for project completion? - Are there any maintenance concerns for the proposed solutions and how are they handled? - Are there any matters that have not addressed on this RFI that may have been missed? Additionally: Are there any other aspects that we need to consider before contracting for this project? Are there any comments concerning the NAICS and SBA size standards chosen for this RFI? Site Visit information: Site visit will be held on Wednesday, April 23rd at 10:00AM. Interested attendees are to coordinate with MSgt Fisher prior to this date to gain access to the base. Phone (218) 788-7242 or email at 148FW.MSC@ang.af.mil. The base is a secured location and a background check will be run.
