R -- SUPPORT SERVICES FOR TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE/ENVIRONMENTAL REMEDIATION/FACILITY OPERATIONS SOL DE-RP04-95AL87460 POC Cheryl A. Thompson, Contracting Officer, (303) 248-6043. The U.S. Department of Energy, Albuquerque Operations Office (AL), intends to set aside two (2) performance-based support services contracts for award to small businesses. These contracts will provide engineering, site management, environmental remediation, laboratory, and other scientific services in support of the Grand Junction Projects Office, located in Grand Junction, CO. The Technical Assistance and Remediation (TAR) contract and the Facilities Operations and Support (FOS) contract will provide a full spectrum of environmental restoration, waste management, facility management, laboratory, and project management activities. Expected award date is June 1996. The TAR contract shall provide remedial action management and technical services to include engineering, design, technology development, compliance oversight, and long- term surveillance for assigned GJPO projects. The TAR contract will include projects such as the Monticello Remedial Action Project, Monticello, Utah, as well as the Uranium Mill Tailings Remedial Action Groundwater Program and the Waste Treatment Program. The FOS contract shall provide for the operation, maintenance, and management of GJPO on-site facilities and scientific laboratories. The term of both contracts will be for a base period of three years with two one-year options. Each contract will be a cost-plus-award-fee contract and will be awarded on a level-of-effort basis with task orders. The solicitations will be issued on or about June 30, 1995, with proposals due approximately 60 days from solicitation issue date. Technical Management, Business Management, and Cost proposals will be required from all Offerors which demonstrate the Offerors' ability to provide technical capabilities, organization, personnel, business systems, and planning processes to satisfy the requirements of the Statement of Work. In addition, the Offeror must demonstrate its responsiveness to DOE's initiatives for contract reform and productivity improvements in business and technical management. The DOE will award one TAR and one FOS contract to the responsible Offerors whose proposals conform to the solicitations and which are determined to be the most advantageous to the Government. Each Offeror must disclose any organizational conflict of interest (OCI), or potential OCI, which would affect the Offeror's ability to render impartial, technically sound and objective assistance or advice to DOE. Should such a possible conflict of interest exist, Offerors should carefully consider the possibility of disqualification from the procurement for a conflict of interest by DOE prior to expending the time and money associated with preparing a proposal. Offerors should initially submit their best proposal, as the Government reserves the right to make an award without discussions. Interested small business Offerors shall provide evidence of their capabilities to perform either scope of work under Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) Code 8744 with a not-to-exceed size standard of 500 employees.
