Description(s): 1. GENERAL CONTRACT INFORMATION: NAICS code for this procurement is 541330. This announcement is open to all businesses regardless of size. The proposed services, which will be obtained by negotiated firm fixed price contracts, are for a variety of architect/engineer (A/E) master planning services for various military and civil works projects in support of LRL, LRD and USACE nationwide customers. Projects outside the primary mission area of responsibility may be added at the government's discretion upon agreement of the A/E firm on an as needed basis. Up to three (3) Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity contracts will be awarded. The maximum cumulative contract value for each contract is $9,000,000. The contract period is for a five year base contract with no options. Projects will be awarded by individual task orders. Up to three firms will be selected, the top ranked firm will be awarded the first contract, the second ranked firm will be awarded the second, and so on. Award of all contracts will be made within nine (9) months after award of the first contract provided there is sufficient workload. If necessary, secondary selection criteria will be used as a tiebreaker between firms considered as technically equal. The following factors will be used in deciding which contractor will be selected to negotiate task orders: performance and quality of deliverables under the current contract, current capacity to accomplish the work in the required time, uniquely specialized experience, and equitable distribution of work among the contractors. Significant emphasis will be placed on the A/E's quality control procedures, as the district will perform the quality assurance role only. Estimated start date is July 2017. If a large business is selected to negotiate a contract, the firm will be required to present an acceptable Small Business and Small Disadvantaged Business Subcontracting Plan in accordance with Public Law 95-507 prior to award of the contract. In accordance with FAR 36.604 and supplements thereto, and upon final acceptance or termination, all task orders above $35,000 will receive a performance evaluation. A performance evaluation may be prepared for lesser task orders and interim performance evaluations may be prepared at any time. Performance evaluations will be maintained for use in future source selections for architect-engineer services. 2.
