The Forest Service intends to negotiate and award multiple Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity firm-fixed price contracts with a 12-months base period with four (4) 12-month option periods. However, if the Contracting Officer determines during the selection process that fewer or more contracts should be awarded based on the selection criteria, the Contracting Officer has the discretion to adjust that number, or award none at all. The total monetary capacity for these contracts is $14 million for the entire contract periods (12-months base with (4) 12-month option periods). Anticipated award date is May 2017. The Government guarantees to purchase a minimum of $2,500 in services over the life of the contracts. The Government will award contracts to the most highly qualified firms to perform the required services, based on the demonstrated competence and qualifications, in accordance with the Brooks Act as implemented by Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 36.6, Architect-Engineer Services. All work performed during the life of the contracts will be ordered by the Government on an as-needed basis through the issuance of firm fixed price Task Orders (TOs). Contracts will include FAR clause 52.217-8 Option to Extend Services for additional 6 months and FAR clause 52.217-9 Option to Extend the Term of the Contract. Award of contract(s) will not restrict the Government from having cadastral surveying services performed by Government employees or others during the contract period. Mid-Term Changes: During the 5-year term of the contract, the Contracting Officer may determine a need to reduce or augment the original pool of awarded contracts. Exiting Contracts: Contractors who repeatedly fail to accept an offer of a task order due to lack of capacity, or who repeatedly fail to complete task orders within the allotted contract time, may not have the next option year renewed. Entering Contracts: Following completion of the first option year or base year, the Government reserves the right to solicit for a limited number of additional contractors to be included in this multiple-award contract.

Notice will include a specific statement of work and period of performance and will state whether the SF 330 will be used or if unique experience and/or qualifications are required to be submitted for evaluation. Location, specialized experience with boundary projects, past performance, capacity, and professional qualifications will be considered to determine which firm is best qualified to accomplish the work.
