The Government reserves the right to cancel this solicitation, either before or after the closing date. In the event the Government cancels this solicitation, the Government has no obligation to reimburse a quoter for any costs. An award may be made on an all, none or partial basis based on availability of funding. This is a combined synopsis/solicitation for commercial lodging prepared in accordance with the format in Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) subpart 12.6, as supplemented with additional information included in this notice.� This announcement constitutes the only solicitation; quotes are being requested and a separate written solicitation will not be issued.� This solicitation is issued as a Request for Quotation (RFQ) in accordance with FAR Part 12, FAR 13.303, and FAR 13.5 under solicitation number FA700020Q0090.� This solicitation document and incorporated provisions and clauses are those in effect through Federal Acquisition Circular 2020-06, effective 6 May 2020. The associated North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) is 721110, with a small business size standard of $35 million.� It is anticipated that a Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) will be established with one, some or no quoter(s). This acquisition will not be a small business set-aside in accordance with FAR 19.502-2(a), as there is not a reasonable expectation of obtaining offers from two or more responsible small business concerns that are competitive in terms of market prices, quality, and delivery. All responsible business sources may submit a price list, which if received timely, will be considered by the 10th Contracting Squadron, United States Air Force Academy (USAFA).� The Government bears no legal liability for the costs associated with preparing a price list.� Vendors should not submit a price list unless they are willing to absorb all costs associated with submitting a price list.� Before submitting a price list, please read the instructions in the addenda to FAR 52.212-1 listed below.� It is the vendor�s responsibility to ensure their price list meets all the requirements identified herein. I.� DESCRIPTION OF REQUIREMENTS USAFA has a requirement for Blanket Purchase Agreements (BPAs) to procure 220 double hotels room with a minimum of two (2) queen beds per room off base to house approximately 440 cadets for the 2020-2021 Academic Year. The requirement start date is from 22 July 2020 until 21 July 2021.� In order to keep the cadets in close proximity to the base as well as close proximity to one another due to safety requirements and travel costs absorbed by the individual cadets, the goal is to have the 440 cadets reside in as few hotels as possible within a 10-mile vehicle commute radius of USAFA.� USAFA currently has a potential need to house some portion of the Cadet Wing off the installation in order to create swing space within the cadet dormitories.� To support this requirement USAFA seeks to contract with multiple off base lodging facilities on a potential short and long-term basis. The contractor shall provide quality lodging and a secure facility that is within of 10-mile vehicle commute radius of USAFA (for safety and travel reasons) as measured from the USAFA Airfield. The contractor shall furnish all resources (including, but not limited to, facilities, furniture, equipment, supplies and breakfast) and incidental services to provide lodging accommodations meeting normal commercial standards. Should the number of required rooms change during the period of performance, USAFA will be required to provide the contractor commercially standard notice for cancellation. The full SOO can be found in Attachment #1. � Inspection/Acceptance:� The Government will inspect and accept lodging at the Contractor�s location.� Payment on invoices cannot be made until the Government has accepted delivery.
