Description

COMBINED SYNOPSIS/SOLICITATION The Miami VA Medical Center located at 1201 NW 16th Street, Miami, FL 33410 has a requirement to repair steam pressure reducing station, installation of newly installed condensate tank piping and replacement of steam traps and condensate lines in the Research Building of the Miami VA Hospital. The attached Statement of Work (SOW) shall be adhered to. This is a combined synopsis/solicitation, Request for Quotation (RFQ), for commercial items prepared in accordance with FAR Subpart 12.6, as supplemented with additional information included in this notice. This announcement constitutes the only solicitation; quotations are being requested and a written solicitation will not be issued. The applicable North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) Code and size standards in millions of dollars are 811219 and $22 Million, respectively. FAR 52.212-2, Evaluation - Commercial Items is applicable to this procurement. This requirement will be awarded to a responsible contractor whose proposal represents the best value to the Government, considering price and technical factors, with technical and past performance factors more important than price. The evaluation of offers received in response to the solicitation will use a tiered or cascading order of precedence. Tiered evaluation of offers, also known as cascading evaluation of offers, is a procedure used in negotiated acquisitions when market research is inconclusive for justifying limiting competition to small business concerns or sub-categories of small business concerns. The contracting officer (1) Solicits offers from both small and other than small business concerns that will be evaluated in the following tier order: (a) service-disabled veteran-owned small business (SDVOSB); (b) veteran-owned small business (VOSB); (c) all other small business concerns; (d) other than small business. (2) If an award or a sufficient number of awards cannot be made at the first tier, evaluation of offers will proceed at the next lower tier until an award or a sufficient number of awards can be made. Once the Government determines there is/are a contractor(s) that can provide a product/service that meet(s) the requirements of this request for quote, the Government reserves the right to communicate with only those contractors quoting the best-suited product/service to address any remaining issues. The Government will evaluate quotes for award purposes by adding the total price for all options to the total price for the basic requirement. The Government may determine that a quote is unacceptable if the option prices are significantly unbalanced. Evaluation of options shall not obligate the Government to exercise the option(s). Evaluation factors will be considered in descending order of importance: Technical Capability: Provide technical performance plan and proof of applicable certifications, license, and insurance. Past Performance: Prospective contractors may provide a list of five business references for which the contractor performed the same or similar scope as required in the performance work statement. The reference information shall include: name of business; name and title of point of contact; brief description of services performed; and date services performed.
