Statement of Need. The objective of this procurement is to obtain a wide range of services for performing investigations and response actions at sites which potentially contain unexploded ordnance (UXO) or ordnance related materials. The Contractor shall provide all personnel, equipment, materials, facilities, and management to perform multiple requests for investigations and response.

The Contractor may also be required to mobilize for significant and unexpected surge requirements on short-notice. The scope of work may include, but is not limited to, the following activities for sites which potentially contain UXO or ordnance related materials: (1) site assessment, investigation (e.g. sampling and analysis), characterization (e.g. type and extent); (2) assessment of explosive safety, human health, and environmental risk; (3) evaluation, selection, and design of response action alternatives; (4) evaluation and selection of detection alternatives; (5) searching, detection, and positive identification of UXO, ordnance related materials, or other contaminants; (6) removal, certification, packaging, and storage of UXO, ordnance related materials, or other contaminants; (7) transporting and disposal of UXO, ordnance related materials, or other contaminants; (8) documentation of response action results; and (9) recurring review of response action sites.

The purpose of the work is to clear areas of UXO and other ordnance related materials to the extent that is suitable for their intended reuse purpose. The work will primarily be at Navy and Marine Corps installations and other government agencies in the United States and its territories; it is not expected that sites will be at active military ranges.
