- Description
- Reclamation's Great Plains Regional intends to solicit quotations for vegetation mowing and noxious weed control services on federal lands surrounding Jamestown Dam and Reservoir. The work under the solicitation will consist of the furnishing of all personnel, equipment, tools, materials, supervision, training, and other items and incidental services necessary to satisfactorily perform the required services as specified in the associated Performance Work Statement. The contractor shall utilize a variety of treatment methods that may include but are not limited to chemical, biological, mechanical, and other preventative measures. The Government has estimated the acreage of noxious weeds to be approximately 500 acres, spread over about 1,600 acres of project lands. The contractor shall make no claim against the Government for any excess or deficiency therein. The anticipated period of performance is from July 1, 2014 through October 31, 2014. Reclamation strongly urges interested offerors to inspect the site where the contractor will perform services and to satisfy themselves regarding all general and local conditions that may affect the cost of purchase order performance. Failure by prospective offerors to inspect the site will not relieve the offerors from the responsibility of properly estimating the difficulty and cost of successfully performing the work in accordance with the Government's requirements. Reclamation will schedule an organized site visit at Jamestown Dam and Reservoir. Detailed information regarding the site visit will be included in the solicitation. Pursuant to Part 12 and Part 13 of the Federal Acquisition Regulations, Reclamation intends to issue a Request for Quotation (RFQ) on or around May 28, 2014. Quotes will be due on or around June 13, 2014. Reclamation anticipates issuing the RFQ under the total small business set-aside program. The applicable North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) Code is 561730 and the associated Small Business Size Standard is $7.0 million. The RFQ will be available for viewing through electronic commerce. Reclamation will issue RFQ Number R14PS00496 via https://www.fbo.gov, at the link provided in this notice. Interested vendors may also check https://www.fedconnect.net/FedConnect/Default.htm. The RFQ and any subsequent amendments and/or notices will be available to vendors on these websites after May 28, 2014. Contractors must submit payment requests for the anticipated purchase order electronically through the U.S. Department of the Treasury's Internet Payment Platform system (IPP). Contractors can obtain assistance with enrollment by contacting the IPP production helpdesk via email ippgroup@bos.frb.org or phone (866) 973-3131. If the contractor is unable to comply with the requirement to use IPP for submitting invoices for payment, the contractor must submit a waiver request in writing to the contracting officer with its quotation. Effective July 29, 2012, any contractor interested in doing business with the Federal Government must register in the System for Award Management (SAM) database prior to award of a contract or agreement. SAM is a Federal Government owned and operated FREE website that consolidates the Central Contractor Registration (CCR), the Online Representations and Certifications Application (ORCA), and the Excluded Parties List System (EPLS). Contractors may obtain information on registration and annual confirmation requirements via the SAM website accessed through https://www.sam.gov/portal/public/SAM/ or by contacting the Federal Service Desk at 1-866-606-8220. For further information about the requirement, offerors should contact Christine Mundt at cmundt@usbr.gov or at (406) 247-7805.
