H -- PROJECT MANAGEMENT FOR REMEDIAL ACTION ACTIVITIES SOL DE-RP05-97OR22619 DUE 010598 POC Shirley C. Vogel, Contracting Officer, 423-576-0648 WEB: Department of Energy, Oak Ridge Operations Office, Procurement Home Page, http://www.doe.gov/procurement/oro_home.html. E-MAIL: Department of Energy, Oak Ridge Operations Office, Shirley C. Vogel, Contracting Officer, vogelsc@oro.doe.gov. The Department of Energy Oak Ridge Operation Office (ORO) at Oak Ridge, TN, seeks highly qualified firms to manage remedial action activities at sites within the Formerly Utilized Sites Remedial Action Program (FUSRAP) and 4 sites in St. Louis, Missouri that were previously within FUSRAP, but will now be managed as a standalone project. Work currently being performed under contracts DE-AC05-91OR21949 (Project Management Contractor) and DE-AC05-91OR21950 (Environmental Studies Contractor) is being recompeted to form 2 new Project Management contracts. Evaluation will be performed separately for the 2 contracts; however, it will be possible for one contractor to receive both awards. FUSRAP was established by DOE to identify and cleanup radioactively, and in some cases, chemically contaminated sites that were used in the early days of the nation's atomic energy program and several additional sites specifically assigned by Congress. FUSRAP presently consists of 46 sites in 14 states; however, by the time the new contracts are awarded, it is expected 21 sites in 8 states will require remedial action under the 2 new contracts. There is, however, the potential that new sites could be added by DOE. Further background information on the existing program can be obtained on Internet (http://www.fusrap.doe.gov/) and in the DOE ORO Public Reading Room (located in the Federal Office Building, 200 Administration Road, Room G217, Oak Ridge, TN). The major portion of the remedial action work will be performed primarily utilizing fixed price or fixed unit price subcontracts. The estimated term of the prime contracts would be approximately a 5 year base period with five 1-year options and award is expected to take place in Spring 1998 with a 30 to 60 day transition period. Two performance-based service contracts will be awarded: one contract for the 4 St. Louis Sites to be administered out of the DOE St. Louis Site Office and the other contract for the remaining FUSRAP sites (approximately 17) to be administered by the FUSRAP Group in Oak Ridge, TN. Firms proposing on these efforts should have substantial experience in management of large remedial action projects involving both radiological and chemical contamination. All responsible sources may submit a proposal which will be considered. We anticipate that Solicitation No. DE-RP05-98OR22619 will be released no later than November 15, 1997. The solicitiation, when released, as well as its current release schedule and other procurement information will be available on the Internet (http://www.doe.gov/procurement/ORO_home.html). (0223)
