Contractor services will support the statistical needs of Superfund site characterization, including providing expert technical guidance for the application of statistical methods and models, development and review of site specific sampling designs, data trend analysis, and maintenance/response to questions and updates for the ProUCL web program. This procurement is being set aside for small business. It is anticipated that the future contract for these services will be a Cost-Plus-Fixed-Fee (CPFF) Level-of-Effort (LOE) type contract with five one-year periods. Each period will have approximately 3,000 LOE hours. The applicable NAICS code is 541620 (Environmental Consulting Services) with a size standard of $15 million. The successful contractor of any resultant contract will be expected to provide all necessary labor, materials, and facilities in support of the efforts delineated by the Performance Work Statement (PWS).

The solicitation shall include standard EPAAR provisions (EPAAR 1552.209-70 and 1552.209-72) which require that an offeror certify whether it is aware of any potential OCOI or disclose any potential OCOI, and provide disclosure statements describing such OCOI, which may impact their ability to impartially conduct work under the PWS. The standard EPAAR solicitation provision (EPAAR 1552.209-71) requiring a contractor to make full disclosure of any actual or potential conflict of interest that is discovered or arises after contract award shall also be part of the solicitation.
