- Description
- This is a combined synopsis/solicitation for commercial items prepared in accordance with the format in Subpart 12.6, as supplemented with additional information included in this notice. This announcement constitutes the only solicitation; proposals are being requested and a written solicitation will not be issued. I. CONTRACT INFORMATION: These contracts are being procured in accordance with the Brooks A-E Act as implemented in FAR Subpart 36.6 and supplements thereto. Services of a qualified firm are sought to provide Photogrammetric and LiDAR Surveying and Mapping. Firms will be selected for negotiation based on demonstrated competence and qualifications to accomplish the required work. The firm's team must have a Certified Photogrammetrist or a Professional Licensed Surveyor. The Government intends to negotiate and award up to four indefinite delivery restricted contracts within one year after the required response date to this solicitation. In addition, the Government intends to award six additional unrestricted contracts under a subsequent announcement. If there are not enough most highly qualified small business contractors to fill any or all of the restricted contracts, the remaining capacity will be shifted to unrestricted contracts. Furthermore, those most highly qualified small businesses that do not receive an award under this restricted solicitation will have their SF 330s automatically added to the unrestricted solicitation SF 330 responses. This solicitation does not supersede contracts previously awarded for similar work by other Corps Districts. However, a contractor awarded a contract under this announcement will be ineligible for award under the unrestricted announcement. Each contract will be for five years. The amount of work in each contract will not exceed $12,500,000.00 ($12.5 Million) and the guaranteed minimum will be $10,000.00. Rates will be negotiated for each 12-month period of the contract at the time of the original award. On each individual contract, the first year's rate schedule shall become effective the day of contract award, and shall be in effect for one year from contract award. Subsequent rate schedules shall become effective on the yearly anniversary dates from contract award. Work will be issued by firm fixed price task orders not to exceed the contract amount and will be subject to successful negotiations. The District may award IDIQ contracts in the future or borrow capacity from other federal contracts to perform work that may also be encompassed by this announcement. The Contracting Officer will consider the following and other relevant factors in deciding which Contractor will be selected to negotiate an order: performance and quality of deliverables under the current contract, current capacity to accomplish the task order in the required time, and uniquely specialized experience. The contracts will be for requirements within the Continental United States and outside the Continental United States (CONUS and OCONUS). This contract is set aside for small business only. North American Industrial Classification System (NAICS) code is 541370 which has a size standard of $15,000,000.00 ($15.0 Million) in annual average receipts. Each firm responding to this announcement must indicate their size status under the specified NAICS code and state if they are currently certified as a small business. The wages and benefits of service employees (see FAR 22.10) performing under these contracts must be at least equal to those determined by the Department of Labor under the Service Contract Act, relative to the employee's home office location. To be eligible for a contract award, a firm must be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) at www.sam.gov. Registration is not required with this submission. II. PROJECT INFORMATION: Work will consist of performing and/or producing aerial photogrammetric and LiDAR surveys, ground control, analytical aero-triangulation, geo-rectification, ortho-rectification, pan-sharpening, tiling, mosaicing, digital elevation model/digital terrain model(DEM/DTM) data, collection and manipulation of photogrammetric mapping, aerial photography, GIS mapping, remote sensing, large and small-scale topographic maps, planimetrics compilation and contouring, geo-database development, maintenance and support and landuse/landcover analysis and mapping, satellite imagery, and other geospatial processes for the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and other federal agencies such as, but not limited to: U.S. Army CE, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Department of Defense, Department of the Interior, NOAA, DOT, state, local, and tribal agencies etc. Services will be for areas within the CONUS and OCONUS. The potential exists that some task orders will include data classified up to SECRET; therefore, to be eligible for those task orders requiring a SECRET clearance, the Contractor shall possess a SECRET clearance for facilities, equipment, and personnel involved in the required services. A SECRET CLEARANCE IS NOT REQUIRED WITH THIS SUBMISSION. III. SELECTION CRITERIA: Criteria a through d are primary. Criteria e is secondary and will only be used as tie-breakers among firms that are essentially technically equal. The selection criteria are listed below in descending order of importance (first by major criterion and then by each sub-criterion). a. Specialized Experience and Technical Competence: (1) current experience in collection of aerial imagery for large & small scale photogrammetric mapping utilizing analog and digital aerial cameras (sweep or frame system), analytical and softcopy aerotriangulation and softcopy feature compilation and extraction; (2) current experience in the collection and processing of LIDAR data into various mapping products to include elevation models, surface models, and contours for large and small scale mapping projects; (3) current experience in digital orthophoto generation for large and small scale mapping projects; (4) current experience in large and small scale photogrammetric production in support of (engineering design, facilities management, regional planning, and real property inventory); (5) ability to integrate digital terrain data from multiple sources into a surface model; (6) ground survey control planning and acquisition for photogrammetric map compilation including conventional (total stations, EDM systems and levels) measuring systems and Global Positioning Systems; (7) capability to provide GIS mapping products and analysis of GIS data sets; (8) ability to perform GIS boundary mapping from real estate tract maps, deeds, and real property transactional registers (9) facilities and capability to gather historical photos from hardcopy and/or digital sources and perform photo image analysis and interpretation to detect landuse and change analysis utilizing digital softcopy techniques and manually via hardcopy; (10) capability and experience in providing geospatial data products in Spatial Data Standards for facilities, infrastructure, and environment (SDSFIE) (latest version); (11) ability to conduct supervised and unsupervised digital classifications from remotely sensed (i.e. hyperspectral and multispectral data sets, high resolution sensor data sets) data and incorporate results into existing geospatial data bases and/or thematic maps; (12) ability to deliver digital data that is readable and fully operational with AutoCAD (current version), ArcGIS (current version), ERDAS Imagine, and Bentley Microstation formats without any additional manipulation. b. Professional Qualifications: The firm must have a Certified Photogrammetrist or a Professional Licensed Surveyor as well as personnel with demonstrated expertise in all aspects of photogrammetry and remote sensing, a qualified management team, quality control staff and technical staff.
