- Description
- UPDATE: This posting is for informational purposes only; no response is necessary. It is anticipated that the solicitation package for the Pacific Northwest BPA will be issued in January 2023 with responses due in late February/early�March 2023.� An informational/instructional call will be held about a week after the solicitation package is issued to discuss this BPA, processes and answer questions. A link to call in will be provided at the same time the solication package is issued. Please be advised that the US Forest Service will be issuing the Pacific Northwest (PNW) Stewardship BPA, �during the winter of 2023 (January) covering Federal and local agency lands within 150 miles of the boundaries of the Colville, Gifford Pinchot, Mt. Baker-Snoqualmie, Mt. Hood, Okanogan-Wenatchee, Olympic, Rogue River-Siskiyou, Siuslaw, Umpqua and Willamette National Forests in Washington and Oregon. This BPA will be the primary means in which the Forest Service will issue future Call Orders (ie. projects) that will include: (1) Integrated Resource Service Contract (IRSC) with required timber product removal; (2) Service-based IRSC�s that includes the option for Timber Subject to Agreement products to be removed when there is no required timber product removal; and (3) Restoration-based Service contract in which no timber product removal is included. �The period of performance of the awarded Blanket Purchase Agreements is 10 years from date of contract with option to extend up to 20 years. Multiple awards will be made for this BPA on an individual National Forest basis once the Forest Service has evaluated the technical proposals and pricing submitted in response to the solicitation. Examples of the types of Hazardous Fuels and Restoration work that may be included are cutting and removal of sawtimber, non-sawtimber, and/or biomass; mastication, hand cutting and piling; and road maintenance. This is not an all-inclusive list and other types of restoration work may be ordered as needed and as identified in individual Call Orders. Future Call Orders will be emailed to only the Contractors awarded under this BPA. As such, it is imperative that all interested individuals have an email account and that all firms must be actively registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) at https://www.sam.gov/ to be eligible for award under the solicitation. If not actively registered, the Forest Service will be unable to make a BPA award; thereby, effectively excluding an otherwise successful offeror from receiving a Call Order solicitation. Registration in SAM is a free service. Procurement Technical Assistance Center (PTAC) offers resources that are available free of charge at www.aptac-us.org/find-a-ptac/ in order to assist with both SAM registration and in proposal submission. We ask that you actively register in SAM.gov as soon as possible if you are interested in this BPA as it does take time to activate new accounts.
