The Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA) is seeking qualification packages and past performance information from vendors interested in providing professional architect and engineering services for assessment services in accordance with the attached Statement of Work (SOW).
The Division of Facilities Management and Construction requires the services of an A-E firm to provide assessment services described herein. Services are required to provide sufficient technical, supervisory, and administrative effort to insure the expeditious accomplishment of this work for each of the four assessment locations. The A-E shall furnish all services, materials, supplies, equipment, investigations, studies, and travel required in connection with this work. Additionally, the A & E shall designate a principal point of contact between DFMC for each site with the authority and responsibility to supervise and administer the performance of the project
This is a competitive selection process in which competing offerors' qualifications will be evaluated in accordance with (IAW) FAR Part 36.6 to determine the most highly qualified firms. The Government intends to award one Firm Fixed-Price contract.
IAW FAR 36.603(b): To be considered for architect-engineer contracts, a firm must file with the appropriate office or board the Standard Form 330, "Architect-Engineer Qualifications," Part II and when applicable, SF 330, Part I. Responders are advised that the Government will not pay for any information or administrative costs incurred in response to this posting; all costs associated with responding will be solely at the interested parties' expense. Failure to respond to this post does not preclude participation in the subsequent technical evaluation so long as a firm's SF 330 is currently on file. It is the responsibility of the potential offerors to monitor these sites for additional information pertaining to this requirement.
This acquisition will be 100% set-aside for Indian Small Business Economic Enterprises (ISBEE) firms.
