This pre-solicitation notice does not commit the Government to the issuance of a solicitation or award of a contract. �No paper copies of the solicitation will be available.� No phone calls or facsimile transmissions will be accepted.� A firm-fixed-price / cost-reimbursement hybrid contract award is anticipated.� Award will be based on best value using trade-offs on price and non-price factors.� The Period of Performance is estimated as follows:� a one month transition period followed by 11 months of services for the base period.� The contact will also include four (4) 12-month option periods.� The anticipated contract start date is January 15, 2021.�� The CDP is a federal entity (a component of the Department of Homeland Security). On March 1, 2003 CDP transitioned from Department of Justice (DOJ) to the Department of Homeland Security (DHS). CDP was subsequently included in the new DHS Preparedness Directorate. Enactment of the Post-Katrina Emergency Management Reform Act (PKEMRA) on April 1, 2007 resulted in the realignment of most DHS Preparedness Directorate functions to FEMA. FEMA established the National Preparedness Directorate (NPD) and aligned many of the former DHS Preparedness Directorate functions into the NPD including CDP. The CDP is a national training facility located in Anniston, Alabama that prepares Federal, state, local and tribal emergency response personnel to respond to all hazards, including terrorist attacks using weapons of mass destruction, by providing advanced, hands on training. This national training program was developed for state, local, tribal, Federal, private sector and international responders from Fire Service, Law Enforcement, Emergency Medical Services, Emergency Management, HazMat, Public Health, Healthcare, Public Communications, Public Works and Government Administrative and other emergency response personnel, their trainers and supervisors. Training courses provided by the CDP provide specific knowledge and expertise for deterrence, prevention, response, mitigation and recovery to Chemical, Biological, Radiological, Nuclear and Explosive (CBRNE) incidents; mass casualty incidents; and incidents involving hazardous materials by providing advanced, hands-on and classroom-based state of the art training. During FY-19, the CDP trained 50,306 students, including 16,096 resident students, 11,243 indirect students, and 22,967 non-resident students. � The intention of this requirement is to obtain contracted comprehensive training operations and support services to DHS/Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA)/Center for Domestic Preparedness (CDP)/Chemical, Ordnance, Biological, and Radiological Training Facility (COBRATF) located in Anniston, Alabama. The COBRATF has unique requirements to manage a training venue where chemical agents (GB and VX) and biological agents (Ricin A Chain and Bacillus anthracis delta Sterne) are used in a specialized training environment.� This will require supervision on a 24-hour, 7-day-a-week basis. The Contractor shall provide all support services as identified in this performance work statement. The object of this procurement is to obtain reliable efficient and effective services by applying a sound management and technical approach that will provide the best value and meet the objectives shown in this performance work statement. Facility-based services include but are not limited to activities such as chemical and biological agent training support, air monitoring operations, laboratory support operations, safety control panel operations, contaminated trash removal, site specific training, quality control, protective clothing and equipment laundry operations, and miscellaneous requirements and information.
