- SBP Partial Small Business Set-Aside (FAR 19.5)
- Description
- This is a pre-solicitation notice for the Flexible Coworking Services (FCS) Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ). GSA intends to award up to four (4) IDIQ contracts to meet a recurring need of commercially available, short term, flexible workspace.The solicitation will be issued on a full and open competitive basis with a partial small business set-aside(s). All business sizes are encouraged to pursue this opportunity. All responsible sources are highly encouraged to participate. The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) Code for this procurement is 531120 - Lessors of nonresidential buildings (except miniwarehouses). The small business size standard for this NAICS code is $30,000,000.00.The U.S. General Services Administration’s (GSA) Total Workplace Program is enabling client agencies to focus on their mission by providing temporary effective workspace solutions aligned with their operations. This solution is geographically multi-tiered and flexible with the ability to be tailored in alignment with the business needs of the Federal Government. Working beyond the confines of traditional government offices has become more common. Government employees are now commonly equipped with technological tools to work from anywhere. The freedom provided by technological advancements allows agencies to efficiently and flexibly pursue mission success through the utilization of employee mobility and telework. This shift in capability has resulted in greater flexibility and mission response across the Federal Government. GSA is seeking nationwide Flexible Coworking Services (FCS) solutions that provide federal employees with flexible workspace solutions in order to occupy only the space needed in order to meet their missions and promote a responsible use of taxpayer dollars.FCS is a business services model to provide flexible workspace solutions to the Federal Government. Solutions shall include individuals working independently or co-working collaboratively in shared office space. The contractor shall provide a work environment akin to a typical office, usually inclusive of office equipment and amenities. Typical features of co-working facilities include work spaces, wireless internet, communal printer/copier/fax, shared kitchens, restrooms and open seating areas. This may also be referred to as a “shared office.”Use of any of the flexible workspace types identified in Section B.2, shall not create or be construed to create any exclusivity of use by the Government, nor be construed as a grant of any title, lease, easement, lien, or possession. Providing flexible workspace as a service creates no tenancy interest or leasehold estate. Any of the flexible work space types may be terminated by the contractor whenever the contractor decides to do so in good faith.Federally owned and leased space may be available in all cities, GSA will screen all available vacant space in owned and leased space in the location before pursuing space under this contract as is required by regulation 41 CFR 102-73.10. The requirements to be fulfilled by this contract will be short term, flexible arrangements. The services provided under this contract are not an acquisition of space but a service to provide flexible workspace.Firms will need to have the ability to provide space in various cities across all GSA regions.Issuance of this pre-solicitation notice does not warrant that funds are presently available for award of a contract. Award of a contract shall be subject to the availability of appropriated funds, and the Government shall incur no obligation under the solicitation and notice in advance of such time as funds are made available for the contracting officer for the purpose of contract award.The expected base contract will be a Multiple Award IDIQ. All task orders placed against the IDIQ shall be firm-fixed price. The solicitation cited above can only be obtained by accessing a secure website known as FedBizOpps.
