This procurement will be a competitive 8(a) set-aside. This is a combined synopsis/solicitation for commercial items, prepared in accordance with format in FAR 12.6 as supplemented with additional information included in this notice, and shall be processed in accordance with FAR subpart 13.5 - Simplified Procedures for Certain Commercial items. This announcement constitutes the only solicitation and a separate written solicitation will not be issued. This solicitation: No. 75N91019Q00166 includes all applicable provisions and clauses in effect through FAR FAC 2019-02 (June 2019) simplified procedures for commercial items. Commercial terms and conditions, FAR 52.212-4 and 52.212-5, shall apply to any acquisition related to this notice. FAR 52.202-24 and FAR 52.202-25 are also applicable, are attached, and FAR 52.202-24 shall be completed and submitted with any quotes provided in response to this notice. The North American Industry Classification System code is 561210 and the business size standard is $22,000,000. The anticipated award shall be a single award, firm-fixed price, severable Purchase Order. It has been determined there are no opportunities to acquire green products or services for this procurement. The period of performance of the resulting award shall consist of a 12-month base period and four (4) 12-month ordering option periods as follows: Base Period:September 30, 2019 through September 29, 2020 Option Period One:September 30, 2020 through September 29, 2021 Option Period Two:September 30, 2021 through September 29, 2022 Option Period Three:September 30, 2022 through September 29, 2023 Option Period Four:September 30, 2023 through September 29, 2024 See attached Statement of Work (SOW) for additional information. OBJECTIVE The objective of the courier service is to get critical documents to NCI staff within 24 hours (and often the same day) rather than routing documents through the NIH mail system. NIH mail service takes 2-3 days since collections and deliveries only occur once a day, and all mail must be sorted for distribution at a centralized mail center. Some groups, such as the NCI Ethics Office, require a confirmation of receipt as well. Mail collection and delivery is needed to the labs and offices in building 37 since there are no mail cluster boxes in the building for NIH mail services to deliver to. SCOPE The Contract shall manage daily courier services for the NCI to various designated locations both on and off the NIH campus. The buildings on campus are 1, 2, 3, 10, 15D2, 31, 37, 41, and 50, and the off-campus buildings are 82, 6011, 9609 (Medical Center Dr), ATC (Grovemont Circle), Rockwall I, and 2115 E. Jefferson. The courier service will include two types of support: 1.) a daily set schedule and 2.) an emergency service. Emergency service consists of delivery to a room not on the schedule and has only been needed a couple times a year historically. The daily set deliveries as shown on the attached schedule will take place each day at the same time, Monday through Friday with the exception of Federal holidays and other Government related closings. The deliveries will contain documents, letters, etc., weighing less than 10lbs. that need to be delivered without delay (same day) rather than going through the NIH mail systems to designated areas at each stop. The total number of mail stops/rooms per building is as follows: On Campus: Building 31 (31 Center Drive, Bethesda)- number of stops 12; Building 15D2 (8 West Drive, Bethesda)-number of stops 1; Building 41 (41 Medlars Drive, Bethesda)-number of stops 1; Building 10 (10 Center Drive, Bethesda)-number of stops 20; Building 37 (37 Convent Drive, Bethesda)-number of stops 4; Building 1 (1 Center Drive, Bethesda)-number of stops 5; Building 2 (2 Center Drive, Bethesda)-number of stops 1; Building 3 (3 Center Drive, Bethesda)-number of stops 1; Building 50 (50 South Drive, Bethesda)-number of stops 1; Off Campus: Building 82 (9030 Old Georgetown Road, Bethesda)- number of stops 1; 6011 Executive Blvd, Rockville-number of stops 2 2115 East Jefferson St, Rockville-number of stops 2 6909 Medical Center Dr, Rockville-number of stops 7 11400 Rockville Pike (Rockwall 1)number of stops 1 8717 Grovemont Circle, Gaithersburgnumber of stops 1 Pick-ups and deliveries are not needed to each stop during each run, and some are only as needed in the morning or afternoon as noted on the attached schedule. The contractor shall make the runs in the morning starting at 9:00am and ending around 12:00pm, and the afternoon starting at approximately 1:10pm and ending around 4:30pm. These times may vary slightly due to parking, weather, etc. For deliveries from the NIH Ethics Office in 9609/room 3W342, NCI shall require a confirmation of receipt. A copy of the route slip that is on every package must be signed by the person that accepts delivery, and then returned to the Ethics Office for their tracking purposes. All these stops are noted on the schedule, Attachment 1. The mail stop in 31/2B47 is only necessary 2-3 times a week. The contractor shall use their own vehicle. NCI will not be responsible for parking tickets or any traffic violations. Additional NCI locations may be added or deleted during the contract period due to renovations, relocations and reorganizations within the institute. The contractor shall provide mail services for buildings 31 and 37 (both on campus buildings in Bethesda). Mail shall be picked up from the NIH designated area in each of these buildings and sorted by contractor personnel for delivery to final destination. Deliveries and pickups shall be made to the areas once a day at either approximately 10am or 2pm depending on the NIH Mail Services delivery schedule. Occasionally, special deliveries and pickups may be required to rooms that are not part of the regular mail route. The approximate number of mail drops per building is as follows: 21 mail drops in Building 31 72 mail drops in building 37 Other Duties: The contractor shall perform other general, light office duties as required such as answering the phone, copying documents, filing, communicating via e-mail, etc. Knowledge for operating a Signature machine is also required for periodic auto-penning of certificates and other such documents.

REPORT(S)/DELIVERABLES AND DELIVERY SCHEDULE The contractor shall be responsible for daily delivery of mail to designated locations on and off the NIH campus meeting the attached time schedule.

The contractor shall also be responsible for sorting the mail dropped in the designated locations. Quarterly reports shall be emailed to the Project Officer for this task within 30 days of the completion of each quarter in either MS Word or Adobe PDF, noting the amount of mail picked up and delivered in building 31 and 37 each month, as well as providing data for special mail deliveries and time spent performing the light office duties.

BASIS FOR AWARD: Selection of an offeror for award will be based on an evaluation of proposals against four factors. The factors, in order of importance are: technical, personnel requirements and organizational experience, past performance and price. All evaluation factors other than price, when combined, are significantly more important than price. However, price may become a critical factor in source selection in the event that two or more offerors are determined to be essentially equal following the evaluation of all factors other than price. The process described in FAR 15.101-1 may be employed, which permits the Government to make tradeoffs among price and non-cost factors to consider award to other than the lowest price offer or other than the highest technically rated factor. The Government intends to make an award to the offeror whose proposals provide the best overall value to the Government. The evaluation will be based on the demonstrated capabilities of the prospective Contractors in relation to the needs set forth in the Combined Synopsis/Solicitation. The merits of each proposal will be evaluated carefully. Each proposal must document the feasibility of successful implementation of the requirements of the Combined Synopsis/Solicitation. Offerors must submit information sufficient to evaluate their proposals based on the detailed factors listed below. The Evaluation Process: The Government will award a contract resulting from this quotation to the responsible contractor whose quote conforming to the quotation will be the most advantageous to the Government, price and other factors considered. The following evaluation factors shall be used to evaluate the prospective contractors and are listed in order of importance. 1.Technical Approach (60) 2.Personnel Requirements and Organizational Experience (40) 3.Past Performance (evaluated but not scored) 4.Price (evaluated but not scored) TECHNICAL EVALUATION CRITERIA: 1.Technical Approach: (60 points): The Offeror will be evaluated by the quality and reasonableness of the proposed technical plan as evidence of understanding of the scope, purpose, and complexity of the requirements as described in the Statement of Work (SOW) in enough detail that someone with a rudimentary knowledge of the subject would be able to understand the offeror's ability to perform the work. 2.Personnel Requirements and Organizational Experience: (40 Points): The Offeror will be evaluated by the appropriateness and adequacy of the proposed project personnel and organization experience as it relates to the completion of the requirements in the Statement of Work, including the responsibilities and level of effort for all personnel who will be assigned to the contract. Staff as well as their detailed qualifications must be described. 3.Past Performance (evaluated but not scored) Offerors shall submit the following information as part of their response: A list of the three (3) contracts providing similar services working onsite at the client's facility containing similar tasks completed during the past ten years and all contracts currently in process that are similar in nature to the solicitation. Contracts listed may include those entered into by the Federal Government, agencies of state and local governments and commercial concerns.

Include the following information for each contract or subcontract: 1.Name of Contracting Organization 2.Contract Number (for subcontracts, provide the prime contract number and the subcontract number) 3.Contract Type 4.Total Contract Value 5.Description of Requirement 6.Contracting Officer's Name and Telephone Number 7.Program Manager's and Telephone Number 8.Standard Industrial Code Each quoter may be evaluated on their performance under existing and prior contracts for similar products or services. The Government is not required to contact all references provided by the quoter. Also, references other than those identified by the quoter may be contacted by the Government to obtain additional information that will be used in the evaluation of the quoter's organizational experience. The Government may evaluate the quoter's past performance on organizational experience based on information obtained from references provided by the offeror, other relevant past performance on organizational experience information obtained from other sources known to the Government, and any information supplied by the offeror concerning problems encountered on the identified contracts and corrective action taken. The Government will assess the relative risks associated with each offeror.
