The bid notice states that the government will award a contract to the responsible offeror whose offer conforming to the solicitation will be most advantageous to the government, price and other factors considered. The acquisition is a Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) process, where proposals are evaluated based on technical acceptability (management approach, technical service acceptability, and technical qualifications of proposed staffing) and price. Award will be made to the responsible vendor that offers the lowest priced technically acceptable proposal.

To be technically acceptable, contractors must have a minimum of five (5) years of experience in providing services for contracts of similar size and scope. Technicians must provide sufficient documentation of certifications, licenses, and specific experience. Program managers require a minimum of three years of experience, and safety managers need an OSHA 30-hour course certification. Contractors must also provide all required local, state, and federal licenses.

Contractors planning to attend must notify the contracting officer via email no later than Tuesday, May 19th at 1:00 PM. Pre-enrollment in the DBIDS system is required for personnel without existing installation access.

The bid notice states that offers that fail to furnish required representations or information or reject the terms and conditions of the solicitation may be rejected. Additionally, failure to maintain an active status in SAM prior to award and throughout the life of the contract may result in payment delays and other administrative delays, and no award will be made to a contractor not registered in SAM.

The delivery is required no later than 30 days after contract award.

The contractor shall be responsible for submitting invoices and initiating receiving reports electronically through Wide Area Workflow (WAWF) for goods and services rendered under this contract. Invoices shall be submitted monthly.

The government will award a contract resulting from this solicitation to the responsible offeror whose offer conforming to the solicitation will be most advantageous to the government, price and other factors considered.

The contractor shall be approved to enroll and submit online submissions of electronic fingerprints to SWFT prior to award, and shall maintain this approval for the life of the contract. Contractor employees shall be fully qualified in the relevant profession, trade, or field, and shall hold any licenses required by law.
