- Description
- This sources sought notice is for informational purposes only in conducting market research. The 45th Space Wing (45 SW) intends to reacquire services currently provided under the Cape Launch Operations and Infrastructure Support (CLOIS) II contract. The Government anticipates a 90 or 180 day transition period prior to full performance. Acquisition strategy has not yet been determined; market research results will assist the US Space Force in determining whether this requirement can be procured as a small business set-aside. The services called for under this contract support 45 SW mission requirements for space vehicle launches and sustainability of range infrastructure. Locations of service include Cape Canaveral Space Force Station (CCSFS) with limited services at Patrick Space Force Base (PSFB), the Florida Annexes, and Kennedy Space Center (KSC). CCSFS plays a vital role in support of the United States space and missile programs. As a service provider and mission partner on CCSFS, the CLOIS contractor will be required to operate and maintain highly reliable and cost effective infrastructure while seamlessly integrating into the CCSFS launch mission organization. The basic design of the various infrastructure systems was laid out in the 1950s and 1960s with the construction of the first facilities at CCSFS. The Air Force has made significant progress in recapitalizing the existing systems required to support additional facilities, ever-increasing utility demands, and evolving mission requirements. The CLOIS contractor plays an integral role in defining, developing, planning and implementing future CCSFS infrastructure changes. Facilities and critical launch systems include, but are not limited to: communications facilities, offline hazardous and non-hazardous processing facilities, telemetry sites, universal camera sites, critical command and destruct facilities, control centers, laboratories, ordnance storage, electrical sub stations, wastewater treatment facility, hangars, warehouses, administrative facilities, and space launch complexes. Services may include, but are not limited to: launch support, systems/facility preventative, predictive and corrective maintenance, systems/facility upgrades and modifications, plant/facility engineering, work order and service call management, safety engineering, critical systems baselining, configuration management, systems engineering, long-range planning and statements of capability, utility system monitoring and management, facility control systems management/maintenance, HVAC, fire detection and alarm maintenance/repair, electrical, UPS/generators, waste water, water systems, fuel storage, energy and real property management, environmental support and clean-up, design engineering, construction inspection and management, logistics support analysis, cost management, possible complex/facility deactivation support, load testing, special purpose elevator maintenance/repair, crane operation, explosive services, and mission support. Note:� Although the current contract is referred to as CLOIS II, it is the first version of CLOIS to be awarded.� This naming convention is set to distinguish the current contract from the original solicitation, referred to as CLOIS I, which was canceled and re-solicited as CLOIS II.� As a result, the follow-on contract will be referred to as CLOIS III.
