- Description
- RECOVERY - PER FAR 5.7 THIS NOTICE IS PROVIDED FOR INFORMATION PURPOSES ONLY; THEREFORE FAR 5.203 DOES NOT APPLY. THIS OPPORTUNITY IS AVAILABLE ONLY TO CONTRACTOR(S) UNDER THE CURRENT CONTRACT NUMBER(S): Anderson Construction, DACW01-02-C-0006 The Mobile District Corps of Engineers intends to issue a modification to contract number DACW01-02-C-0006, a competitively awarded Cost-Reimbursable Plus Award-Fee contract for the Operation and Maintenance of Government-Owned Facilities and Equipment, Lake Lanier Project, Buford Georgia, awarded to Anderson Construction Company, 58 Crozier Lane, Fort Gaines, Georgia. The modification will be funded by American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (Recovery Act) funds. The modification will increase the level of effort required under the current contract in the existing technical provisions of invasive species control/eradication, debris and refuse removal, hazardous tree removal, and encroachment removal. This work is within the scope of the original contract technical provisions. Contract clauses required for projects involving Recovery Act funds have been incorporated into the existing contract. The existing contract must be used for the following reasons: 1) A detailed scope of work cannot be prepared. The extent of the work and the resources needed cannot be fully determined prior to starting the work, because conditions are different at each area. 2) The contractor is responsible for these activities on the approximately 700 miles of shoreline, 38,000 acres of water and 18,000 acres of land outside of the public recreation areas. 3) The scheduling, coordination, quality assurance and/or subcontracting for the work to be performed are within the scope of the original contract technical provisions and must be accomplished under the terms of the existing contract. The incumbent contractor not only has the management, technical, and administrative skills to efficiently and effectively accomplish this work at a reasonable cost, but also the advantage of the flexibility to readily adjust to any unforeseen obstacles encountered during completion. 4) This contract enables work to begin immediately after and during inspections without a detailed scope of work and thus minimizes the time the resources are impacted. The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) contains specific acquisition requirements that must be met when using funds appropriated by the Act. Acquisitions must comply with FAR, and to the maximum extent practicable, be awarded under competitive procedures as fixed-price (FP) contracts. The Mobile District intends to use the current CPAF contract to meet it requirements. Though not a FP contract, it was awarded competitively as a small business set aside. The contract type was selected to provide the contractor with the greatest incentive for efficient and economical performance, given the types of services to be performed. Furthermore, the existing Operation and Maintenance contractor has experienced personnel that are already on site and ready to perform the work. Accordingly, it is deemed to be in the best interest of the government and in compliance with the goals of the Recovery Act to use the existing Operation and Maintenance contract to accomplish the requirements listed above.
