E-MAIL: Robert Wind, robert.wind@schriever.af.mil. The web site address for directions to Aerospace Corporation for Industry Days for the Professional Engineering Services and Operations Space Support (PESOSS) Contract, including Information Technology, has changed. The directions can be found at www.schriever.af.mil/swc/xrweb/contracting/index.htm. The Bidders' Library CD will be available during Industry Days. In order to ensure adequate seating for the Industry Days for the PESOSS, we request you inform 50 CONS if you plan to attend and the number of persons attending (limited to 3 per company). Please provide this information via one media only (either e-mail or facsimile), with no hard copy follow-up. E-mail to: alicia.vetter@schriever.af.mil or facsimile to (719) 567-3850 to the attention of Alicia Vetter. Provide your response no later than 7 Mar 2000. The 50th Space Wing Contracting Squadron (50 CONS) is developing Multiple Award Indefinite Delivery Contracts (See FAR 16.5). These contracts are scheduled for award around 1 Aug 2000, with tasks awarded around 1 Oct 2000. The Multiple Award Contracts (MACs) will afford DoD agencies the opportunity to contract for various services in a non fee-bearing environment. The Statement of Work will be structured to include support for Professional Engineering Services, Information Technology (IT) Services, and Operational Support (OS) Services through a task order process. The number of MACs to be awarded will be dictated by evolving mission requirements. The primary focus of this contract will be to support space and IT mission areas. Individual task orders will be issued in accordance with FAR 16.505(b). In order to support these requirements, it is contemplated that SIC Code 8731 will be utilized. Small businesses are highly encouraged to participate in this acquisition, as it is anticipated that 50% of the 50 CONS MAC contracts will be awarded to small businesses. Initially, customers will include the HQ/AFSPC Space Warfare Center (SWC) and the 50th Space Wing 850th Communications Squadron (850 CS). 50 CONS currently administers operational support efforts for the SWC under the SWC Operations Support (OS) Contract. 50 CONS also manages site integration support for 850 CS under the Site Integration and Support Contract (SIASC). Support for both organizations is anticipated to be performed under the MAC. As previously announced on EPS Reference Number SWC-0000-0001, dated 09 Sep 99, 50 CONS/LGCZB intends to issue sole source extensions for the SWC OS Contracts for one year from 01 Oct 2000 through 30 Sep 2001 (FY 01). On 01 Oct 2001, the SWC OS Contract will terminate, and all SWC work is anticipated to be on the MAC. The one-year extension will be used to manage transition risk for the SWC during FY 01. The extension will be used for some existing SWC efforts. New and restructured SWC efforts are expected to be accomplished through the MAC. As a first choice, the SWC intends to award orders to SIC 8731 small business contractors to accomplish existing requirements under the MAC, while ensuring the SWC has adequate large business resources to meet current and future mission growth. The 850 CS work, currently being performed under the SIASC include Schriever AFB site integration. The areas covered currently encompass over 50% of the Communication-Computer System (C-CS) facilities on the base and are expected to grow. Functions to be supported would include engineering, installation, I/MAR verification, scheduling, site preparation design, architectural, C4 systems requirements administration, and similar type integration and engineering technical support. Although much of the 850 CS work under the MAC may not begin until FY 03, certain site integration support functions may be performed during FY 02. In order to be considered for the MAC, potential offerors will be required to submit a proposal detailing their past performance and related experience and provide labor rates for various labor categories that are anticipated for these requirements. A Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) will be executed with those contractors having a MAC with 50 CONS, and the requirements (task orders) will then be set-aside/competed among the qualified BPA holders as appropriate. An Industry Day will be convened at the Aerospace Corporation at 1150 Academy Park Loop, Colorado Springs, CO from 0730 to 1200 on 21 Mar 00, to provide further explanation and clarification of our approach. Potential offerors will be limited to three personnel per company due to conference room capacity.
