The purpose of this amendment is to change the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) 562910 corresponding index from (Remediation Services) to (Environmental Remediation Services), which has a Size Standard of 750 employees. This synopsis is for market research purposes only and IS NOT A REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL (RFP) nor does it restrict the Government as to the ultimate acquisition approach. The Government will not reimburse respondents for any costs incurred in preparation of a response to this notice. Previous responders are required to re-submit. All previous submissions will not be utilized to make the Governments acquisition approach determination. The Government is seeking to identify sources that can provide all personnel, equipment, supplies, facilities, tools, materials, supervision, and other items and nonpersonal services necessary to perform ordnance clearance services. The Contractor will be required to utilize existing and emerging robotics technologies to perform vegetation clearance and surface clearance to remove munitions-related items, range residues, and other metallic debris; and utilize subsurface characterization using digital geophysical instruments. The U.S. Army Engineering and Support Center, Huntsville is considering award of a single award indefinite delivery indefinite quantity (IDIQ) contract to provide ordnance clearance services where those services are performed using robotic equipment to the maximum extent reasonably possible. Manned Unexploded Ordnance (UXO) services will be required in support of the robotic operation. This work will primarily be performed in support of the construction of training ranges on active military, guard and reserve locations in the Continental United States (CONUS). Services may also be required at military installations in Alaska, Hawaii and Puerto Rico and at formerly-used defense sites where a clearance action is required. Because the primary place where the work will be performed is on active military installations, all personnel performing work on-site must be U.S. citizens with appropriate security clearances as required. The following is attached: Draft PWS Draft PWS Equipment Listing Capability Questionnaire (Microsoft Word Format) This sources sought is to determine the capability of potential sources and the availability of commercial sources and services pursuant to FAR Part 10.
