- RECOVERY PSC/U099, NAICS/611513, The General Services Administration (GSA) ARRA National Program Management Office has a requirement for Pre-apprenticeship programs in eight identified areas.

Providence, Rhode Island 11.7% In recognition of the need to build a highly skilled workforce, GSA intends to award at least one contract and no more than eight. This is a pilot program. GSA is re- soliciting these eight areas. Awards were made for the Washington, DC and Portland, Oregon areas. This is a full and open competition. The small business size standard is 7.0 million for this acquisition. GSA in collaboration with DOL seeks to contribute to the process of economic recovery and job creation by facilitating opportunities for high quality training and education in the construction industry. The community based organization/establishment shall provide registered DOL pre-apprenticeship programs. The program must provide emphasis in the construction labor categories which will inturn prepare graduates for work in the construction industry. The selected contractors/community based organizations will be required to be registered in CCR, Contractor Central Registration. The purpose of this pre-solicitation notice is to notify interested parties or sources of the anticipated release date of the solicitation on or about 13 October 2009 with responses due to the Government on or about 12 November 2009. Organizations or interested firms offering similar programs in the pre-apprenticeship training arena with emphasis in the construction trades are encouraged to submit an expression of interest. An interested parties' list will be complied. Firms/organizations responding must have a DOL registered or certified pre-apprenticeship program with a proven training completion track record (past performance) and job placement success in construction, energy efficiency and retro-fitting labor categories. Firms must submit their interest to Nita Wiggs via e-mail, arnetha.wiggs@gsa.gov NLT 12 October 2009. In order to expedite contracting actions, solicitations related to this notice may or may not be sent to only those firms responding to this notice. Contract awards shall range from $25,000 to $125,000 covering a one year period. These numbers also reflect an even distribution of awards to all 8 areas. If all areas are not represented with proposals, then greater amounts may be awarded to other identified and represented areas. However the total aggregate amount of all awards shall not exceed $1,000,000. Competitive awards will be made to those firms offering the best value continuum to the Government.
