A -- BROAD AGENCY ANNOUNCEMENT FOR INNOVATIVE TECHNOLOGIES ADDRESSING VARIOUS ENVIRONMENTAL PROBLEMS SOL N47408-96-R-6342 DUE 062896 POC Contract Specialist, ROSALIE HAMMONDS, 805-982-5097 This announcement constitutes a Broad Agency Announcement (BAA) for the Naval Facilities Engineering Service Center (NFESC) under FAR 6.102 (d)(2) to solicit information. This innovative technology search will be used by the Navy Environmental Leadership Program (NELP) Technology Initiative II (NTI II) and other NFESC Environmental Programs to actively seek out innovative technologies that reduce environmental impacts from current and past Navy operations. The environmental problems and areas of concern for this announcement are occurring at Navy installations world-wide. Part of the proposed project areas of concern listed in the BAA are being considered 100% set-aside for Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) or Minority Institutions (MIs) as defined by clause 252.226-7000 of the Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement. Interested HBCUs and MIs should provide the contracting office as early as possible, but not later than 15 days after this notice, evidence of their capability to perform the contract, and a positive statement of their eligibility as an HBCU or MI. If there are two or more responsible HBCU's or MI's who possess the necessary qualifications, a set-aside may be initated for that topic listed in this annoucement. If adequate responses are not received from HBCUs/MIs, the solicitation will instead be issued, without further notice, as unrestricted, to academic institutions, non- profit organizations, and private industry. The NFESC is interested in innovative and new technologies and methodologies that reduce environmental impacts from current Navy operations. To be eligible for consideration for Navy use, the innovative and new technologies and methodologies shall be in the Advanced Development Stage, ready for field demonstration, and capable of full scale implementation should the demonstration prove successful. Persons wishing to submit the requirements in response to this BAA should submit an abstract to: Commanding Officer, Naval Facilities Contracting Office, Code 2711-6, Bldg. 41, Naval Construction Battalion Center, 1000 23rd Avenue, Port Hueneme, CA 93034-4301. For more information regarding this BAA call Danelle Lopez (805) 982-0535. Submittals will not be evaluated against each other since each is a unique technology with no common work statement. Contractors with submittals identified as beneficial to the Navy s environmental program will be contacted for further information. There is no commitment by the Navy to make any contract awards, or to be responsible for any monies expended by the contractor before an award of a contract, should it occur. Multiple contracts may result with funding ranging from an estimated $20,000 to $500,000 for each contract award. Submittals to this BAA will be in abstract form describing the merits and objectives of what the contractor is offering. The abstract should concisely describe what the contractor has to offer the Navy with sections discussing but not limited to: (a) The overall innovativeness, scientific/technical merits, and objectives of the offer. (b) The offeror's capabilities, related experience, techniques, or unique combination of these which are integral factors in achieving the offeror s proposed objectives. (c) The qualifications, capabilities, and experience of the principal investigator, team leader, or key personnel who are critical in achieving the objectives of the offer. (d) The reasonableness of cost relative to the proposed scientific/technical approach. The contractor s abstract shall be no longer than three pages, single-sided, and 12 pitch. One attachment of up to 10 pages (single sided) of test data may be submitted as an attachment to the abstract. It should contain results of previous tests, demonstrations, and projects to support the contractor's proposed scientific/ technical approach. The abstract submittals to this BAA will be collected and reviewed by a Technical Evaluation Board on three separate occasions, throughout a period of one year from the date of this announcement. The first cutoff date for submittal review to this BAA is June 28, 1996. The second cutoff date for submittal review is November 29, 1996. The third cutoff date for submittal review is April 30, 1997. Based on the abstract submittal, vendors with a technology or methodology found to have merits for specific Navy environmental programs will be given site specific information and asked to submit a full technical and cost proposal for contract award consideration. The purpose of any resultant contract would be to demonstrate and conduct a full scale implementation to solve a specific Navy problem area. The following are the topics which encompasses a full range of Navy environmental problems to be solved. TOPIC NO. BAA 96-003 for TECHNOLOGIES, PROCESS CHANGES, AND MANAGEMENT PRACTICES FOR POLLUTION PREVENTION NFESC is seeking innovative technologies, process design changes, and management practices to minimize the amount of pollution generated during operations and maintenance. This topic includes a wide range of materials and processes. TOPIC NO. BAA 96-004 for ENVIRONMENTAL COMPLIANCE TECHNOLOGIES AND METHODOLOGIES NFESC is seeking innovative technologies, process design changes, and management practices to comply with local, state, and federal environmental regulatory requirements. This topic includes a wide range of services. TOPIC NO. BAA 96- 005 for TECHNOLOGIES AND METHODOLOGIES FOR ENVIRONMENTAL CONSERVATION OF NATURAL RESOURCES NFESC is seeking innovative technologies, process design changes, and management practices to conserve natural resources of the Navy in accordance with local, state, and federal regulatory requirements. This topic includes a wide range of services. TOPIC NO. BAA 96-006 for ASSESSMENT AND REMEDIATION TECHNOLOGIES AND METHODOLOGIES FOR ENVIRONMENTAL CLEANUP NFESC is seeking innovative technologies, process design changes, and management practices to assess and remediate the existing pollution generated by past operations. This topic includes a wide range of materials, processes, and services.(0129)
