- NOTE: This Pre-solicitation Notice references information resulting from Sources Sought Notice N0018914S2111 issued on 16 September 2014. The NAVSUP Fleet Logistics Center Norfolk (FLCN), Contracting Department, Philadelphia Office formerly announced a Sources Sought Notice (refer to N0018914S2111) to identify potential business sources capable of providing services to the Navy Education and Training Command (NETC), Pensacola, FL in support of NETC ™s domain-wide Information Technology (IT) and Support Service requirements. Based upon the responses received, as well as thorough market research conducted, adequate competition is anticipated for the acquisition, to the point where an unrestricted, full and open competition is expected to yield extensive participation. After examining the history of this acquisition, both among small business primes and subcontractors, as well as the small business responses related to the Sources Sought Notice, it was determined that there is no reasonable expectation of sufficient small business participation that would justify setting aside the acquisition entirely. The conclusion reached from an assessment of those small business firms who responded to the Sources Sought Notice, as well as several other small business firms ™ contract experience, is that there is no reasonable expectation of two or more small business concerns being capable of participation in the entire requirement to the point where a full blown set aside would be warranted. In light of the conclusion reached, further consideration of those responses to the Sources Sought Notice revealed that many small businesses were interested in the instant requirement, or at the very least parts of the requirement, to the point where a comprehensive review of the acquisition was warranted. The goal of such a review was to determine whether any areas of the requirement could be set aside exclusively for small business concerns. Accordingly, in an effort to maximize competition and promote greater small business participation, a determination was been made to split the requirement and solicit separate Request For Proposals (RFP) as follows: (1) N00189-15-R-Z008 for IT Support Services on a full and open, unrestricted basis; and (2) N00189-15-R-Z038 for IT Business Support Services as a total small business set-aside. The remainder of this Pre-Solicitation Notice will provide information in reference to RFP N00189-15-R-Z038 for IT Business Support Services ONLY. For information on the IT Support Services solicitation, refer to RFP N00189-15-R-Z008. The NAVSUP Fleet Logistics Center Norfolk (FLCN), 700 Robbins Avenue Philadelphia, PA 19111 intends to solicit on a full and open competition basis, in accordance with FAR, Part 15 procedures, for Information Technology Business Support Services (RFP # N00189-15-R-Z038) for the Naval Education and Training Command (NETC), Pensacola, FL, in support of Manpower, Personnel, Training and Education (MPTE) Information Technology Business requirements.

NETC requires a comprehensive contract for support of the diverse information technology (IT) business demands of NETC and all organizations within the MPTE.

Offerors shall be required to submit both price and non-price proposals.
