- GPIS Draft SOW THIS IS A Sources Sought Notice ONLY. The Mission and Installation Contracting Command (MICC) Yuma Proving Ground has a requirement for General Purpose Instrumentation Systems located at United States Army White Sands Missile Range, New Mexico. The U.S. Government desires to procure this requirement on a possible small business set-aside basis, provided two (2) or more qualified small businesses respond to this sources sought synopsis with information sufficient to support a set-aside. Be advised that the U.S. Government will not be able to set aside this requirement if two (2) or more small businesses do not respond with information to support the set-aside. We encourage all small businesses, in all socioeconomic categories (including, 8(a) Business Development Program, Small Disadvantage Business, Historically Underutilized Business Zone (HUBZone), Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned, and Women-Owned Small Business concerns), to identify their capabilities in meeting the requirement at a fair market price. This notice is issued solely for information and planning purposes - it does not constitute a Request for Quote (RFQ)/Invitation for Bid (IFB)/Request for Proposal (RFP) or a promise to issue an RFQ, IFB or RFP in the future. This notice does not commit the U.S. Government to contract for any supply or service. Further, the U.S. Government is not seeking quotes, bids or proposals at this time and will not accept unsolicited proposals in response to this sources sought notice. The U.S. Government will not pay for any information or administrative costs incurred in response to this notice. Submittals will not be returned to the responder. Not responding to this notice does not preclude participation in any future RFQ or IFB or RFP, if any is issued. If a solicitation is released, it will be synopsized on the Government-wide Point of Entry. It is the responsibility of potential offerors to monitor the Government-wide Point of Entry for additional information pertaining to this requirement. The anticipated North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code is 336212 Truck Trailer Manufacturing with a size standard of 500 employees. The need is anticipated for the General Purpose Instrumentation Systems which is the design, fabrication and equipment integration of instrumentation shelters/trailers as well as the instrumentation of fixed sites. The previous requirement was fulfilled through a fixed price requirements-type contract, W9124R-11-D-0207. The period of performance was for a one-year base period and four one-year options. Attached is the draft SOW. In response to this sources sought notice, please provide: 1.

Please contact the MICC Advocate for Competition, Dean Carsello, at dean.m.carsello.civ@mail.mil or 210-466-2419, if you believe that this action is unreasonably restricting competition. Include the subject of the acquisition, this announcement, and the MICC POC information from the FedBizOpps notice.

Include rationale for the contract type suggested. 9. What NAICS code would you recommend for the contemplated supplies? 10. Identify any laws or regulations that may be unique to the requirement. 11. Are the supplies customarily available in the commercial marketplace, or are they created exclusively for governmental purposes?

What are the traditional warranties that your company will offer when it comes to the development and fabrication of products. How do you track existing warranties for customers? 13.
