Description

The US Department of Labor Wage Determination General Decision Number: 2005-2206 SF1449, Please complete and return with proposal. (65pgs) The USDA, National Centers for Animal Health (NCAH) has a requirement for preventative maintenance, routine maintenance, and emergency repairs for their Lenel access control and detection security system and a variety of closed circuit television systems installed in their facilities located in Ames, IA. USDA, NCAH intends to procure this service for a period not to exceed five years. The NCAH facility is composed of three separate USDA entities. The National Veterinary Services Laboratories safeguards U.S. animal health and contributes to public health by ensuring that timely and accurate laboratory support is provided by the nation-wide animal health diagnostic system. The Center for Veterinary Biologics implements the provisions of the Virus-Serum Toxin Act to ensure that the veterinary biologics available for the diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of animal diseases are pure, safe, productivity, and effective. The National Animal Disease Center conducts research to solve animal health and food safety problems faced by livestock producers and the public. Due to the critical nature of this facility the security system needs to be operable at all times and access controlled continually to all areas. Therefore the contractor must provide the following services: • Respond to emergency work requests within 2 hours during established working hours, 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., and within 3 hours outside the established working hours. • Complete emergency work requests within twenty-four (24) hours of requirement identification. • Complete urgent work requests within three (3) calendar days of requirement identification. If materials are ordered, complete urgent work requests within three (3) calendar days after receipt of materials. An urgent work request is defined as a priority service request that would result in an emergency request if the system fails and is not repaired. Site Visit. Offerors are urged and expected to inspect the site where services are to be performed and to satisfy themselves regarding all general and local conditions that may affect the cost of contract performance, to the extent that the information is reasonably obtainable. In no event shall failure to inspect the site constitute grounds for a claim after contract award. Potential contractors who want to visit the USDA/NCAH facility at 1920 Dayton Ave in Ames, IA 50010 should contact Jacob Ross at (515) 337-7062. For an appointment.
