- Description
- This is a special notice. The Adelphi Contracting Division (DoDAAC: W911QX) of the Army Contracting Command, Aberdeen Proving Ground (ACC-APG) will be issuing commercial solicitations, for items under the Simplified Acquisition Threshold (currently $150,000), using new procedures. All solicitations will be issued as a small business set-aside and will convert to full and open competition if no acceptable offers are received from responsible, small business concerns. There will only be one solicitation posting, and no amendments will be issued to convert to full and open competition. If no offers are received from responsible, small business concerns, the Contracting Officer will dissolve the set-aside and award to a large business. The "Small Business Set-Aside" field on FedBizzOpps will be left blank to encourage all offerors, large and small, to respond. The solicitation language will state something substantially the same as the following: NOTICE: THIS IS A SMALL BUSINESS SET-ASIDE THAT WILL CONVERT TO FULL AND OPEN COMPETITION IF NO ACCEPTABLE OFFERS ARE RECEIVED FROM RESPONSIBLE, SMALL BUSINESS CONCERNS. FOR OFFERS TO BE CONSIDERED ACCEPTABLE, THEY MUST MEET ALL TECHNICAL REQUIREMENTS CONTAINED IN THE SOLICITATION AND BE COMPETITIVE IN TERMS OF MARKET PRICES, QUALITY, AND DELIVERY. IF ONLY ONE ACCEPTABLE OFFER IS RECEIVED FROM A RESPONSIBLE, SMALL BUSINESS CONCERN, THE CONTRACTING OFFICER WILL CONSIDER AWARDING DIRECTLY TO THAT FIRM, PRIOR TO THE DISSOLUTION OF THE SMALL BUSINESS SET-ASIDE. NO AMENDMENT WILL BE ISSUED TO CONVERT THE SOLICITATION TO FULL AND OPEN COMPETITION. IF THE SMALL BUSINESS SET-ASIDE IS DISSOLVED, THE GOVERNMENT WILL AWARD TO THE LARGE BUSINESS THAT'S OFFER IS MOST ADVANTAGEOUS TO THE GOVERNMENT BASED ON THE REQUIREMENTS AND EVALUATION CRITERIA SET FORTH IN THIS SOLICITATION. ALL INTERESTED OFFERORS ARE ENCOURAGED TO RESPOND, REGARDLESS OF BUSINESS SIZE; HOWEVER THEY MUST DO SO AT THEIR OWN RISK, TAKING INTO ACCOUNT THAT THIS IS A SMALL BUSINESS SET-ASIDE FIRST, AND FULL AND OPEN COMPETITION ONLY AFTER THE ABOVE CRITERIA IS NOT MET. This notice is being issued, since the solicitations using these procedures will not specifically be searchable on FBO.gov as a set-aside. However, they will be small business set-asides, which will only be dissolved if the criteria in the above language is not met. Additionally, these procedures will be utilized for NAICS codes other than 334516. The NAICS code 334516 was selected, as the Government anticipates it being one of the primary NAICS codes used with these procedures. All interested small businesses are encouraged to pay close attention to any solicitation issued using DoDAAC W911QX.
