This action is 100% small business set-aside. The associated Standard Industrial Code (SIC) is 7381. A firm is a small business for the purpose of this requirement if it is any concern, including its affiliates, that is independently owned and operated, not dominant in the field of operation in which it is bidding on Government contracts and whose average receipts for the preceeding three fiscal years do not exceed $6 million. This action falls within the Service Contract Act, and a Wage Determination has been requested from the Department of Labor. (1) The Virginia Contracting Activity intends to establish a firm fixed price contract for security escort services and classified waste collection, removal, and destruction work at Building 4505, Redstone Arsenal, Alabama. Performance shall be IAW the standards specified herein. The Contractor shall provide eight full-time employees, each working eight hours per day. The workday will be scheduled to cover the period 7:00 am to 5:30 pm during the normal business week. Weekends and Government holidays are excluded. One of the employees shall be Project Manager. (2) The Contractor security staff shall be required to accompany those personnel that do not have the appropriate security clearance and/or access authorization, and monitor the uncleared visitor(s) movements in the secure area of the building. This entails ensuring that those personnel with a valid need to enter the secure area are appropriately registered and badged by Contractor security staff before entering, that doors to offices in areas through which uncleared personnel must transit are closed, and that occupants present in such spaces are given prior notification of the impending entry of uncleared personnel so as to preclude any inadvertent unauthorized disclosure of classified/sensitive information. (3) The Contractor shall be required to operate the classified materials destruction machine in Building 4505. This includes feeding classified waste into the destruction machine, and remaining with the trash until all material is properly disposed. Carts for collection of classified waste will be provided by the Government. (4) The Contractor shall provide a Project Manager who shall be physically present at the work site whenever services are being performed. The Project Manager shall be responsible for the management of this contract and shall be the point of contact with the Government. (5) Prior to commencement of contract performance, the Contractor shall furnish the Contracting Officer's Representative (COR), in writing, a list of personnel designated to work under this contract. The list shall contain the name, address, telephone number, and security clearance for each Contractor employee working on this contract. (6) The Contractor shall obtain installation entry passes for each of his employees from the COR. Contractor employees are subject to being searched, at the discretion of the Installation Commander, when entering or leaving the installation. Upon completion of the contract or in the event an employee is terminated, the Contractor shall return all passes from such employees to the COR. (7) All Contractor employees shall park their personal vehicles on the premises in the area designated by the COR. (8) The Contractor shall establish and implement methods of ensuring that the keys issued to Contractor employees by the Government are not lost, misplaced, or used by unauthorized persons. Contractor employees shall report the loss of any key(s) to the Project Manager, who shall then report the loss to the COR, immediately after a determination has been made that a key is missing. (9) Three people are required to operate the classified waste materials destruction machine. The Contractor will NOT be required to provide additional personnel, however, on the days classified waste is destroyed, even though such document destruction may from time to time impact security escort service. This situation will NOT be considered cause for complaint by the Government. Destruction of classified materials will be accomplished as often as necessary, but no less than twice each week. All safety equipment used while operating the destruction machine will be provided by the Government. In the event of a problem with the destruction machine, wherein Contractor employees are required to remain with it beyond the end of the normal duty day, additional time worked will NOT be paid as overtime. All classified materials destruction and cleanup shall be scheduled for performance during the normal duty hours of 7:00 am to 5:30 pm. Contractor employees are not required to be armed, and uniforms, radios, pagers, and vehicles are NOT required. An off-duty area will be provided in Building 4505 for use by Contractor personnel when not involved in performing services. The Government will provide a telephone in the area but NO other equipment, furnishings, or supplies. Each Contractor employee MUST have a Top Secret security clearance with access to Sensitive Compartmented Information (TS/SCI) to work on this contract, and the security clearance shall be required for each employee at the time performance begins. The Contractor shall request SCI access IAW DIAM 50-5. If the Contractor uses SCI-cleared personnel from another agency, a list of all such personnel will be provided to the COR, to include the name, social security number, agency sponsoring the individual(s), and level of security access for each person. Also, in order to provide a surge capability, the Contractor shall have available five SCI-cleared part-time security escort employees. These employees shall be utilized whenever more than the usual eight fulltime security escort staff are required such as over weekends, holidays, or during special requirement situations as deemed necessary by the COR. This contract shall have a base year performance period of 1 October 1996 - 30 September 1997, with options for four additional years. All contract services shall be performed in Building 4505.
