Description
DESCRIPTION � The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS), National Institutes of Health (NIH), National Cancer Institute (NCI), Office of Space and Facilities Management (OSFM), intends to procure Water and Sewer utility services on a sole source basis from Washington Suburban Sanitary Commission (WSSC).� This procurement is being conducted using commercial item procedures pursuant to FAR Part 12 and FAR Part 13, specifically FAR Subpart 13.106-1(b)(1)(i) allowing the Contracting Officer (CO) to solicit from one source.� Only one award will be made as a result of this solicitation. This will be awarded as a Severable Firm-fixed price contract with two option periods. � It has been determined there are no opportunities to acquire green products or services for this procurement. BACKGROUND The NCI CRL Facility was constructed to house scientific staff from the Advanced Technology Center (ATC) facility which measures about 33,133 square feet.� The NCI CRL facility is being leased to eliminate the antiquated lab space that NCI occupied at ATC and accommodate the increased number of staff members at NCI�s Division of Cancer Epidemiology and Genetics (DCEG). The CRL facility is built to provide accommodation for up to 217 staff and has 117 office space and 37 labs. The CRL could have up to 85 visitors per day. The requirement for Water and Sewer Utility Services will be transferred from the ATC Facility to the NCI CRL facility. Water and Sewer Utility services are needed to ensure that the facility stays operational. The lease with GSA and NCI for this facility is set to commence on November 6th, 2019 and expires 15 years thereafter. Water and Sewer utility service at the CRL was initially established by the Lessor, JBG.� Since partial occupancy of the space by NCI is set for December 12th, 2019, the responsibility of payment for Water & Sewer utility services will be transferred from the lessor to NCI by this date. The Meter Number is 61033662. Washington Suburban Sanitary Commission (WSSC) is the only provider of Water and Sewer Utility Services in the zip code 20850 where the NCI CRL facility is located. �OBJECTIVE The purpose of this acquisition is to provide Water and Sewer Utility Services for the newly leased 65,529 square foot NCI Consolidated Research Lab (NCI CRL Facility) located at 9615 Medical Center Dr. Rockville, MD 20850. The NCI CRL Facility is designated as lab space and will host laboratory equipment such as incubators, thermal cyclers, water baths, autoclave, fume hoods, biosafety cabinets cold rooms, etc. SCOPE Given the fact that the CRL is a newly constructed facility and has not yet been occupied by NCI staff, the IGCE has been developed based on Water and Sewer Utility service cost for the NCI Shady Grove Facility located at 9609, Medical Center Drive, Rockville, MD 20850.� The NCI Shady Grove is 574,000 RSF and serves as an administrative building for over 2,200 NCI staff with a full-service cafeteria and a 24-hour Fitness Center. The NCI CRL Facility is 65,529 RSF and will serve as a lab space for approximately 217 NCI staff members. Based on the FY20 estimated cost of $144,815 for water and sewer utility services at NCI Shady Grove which is about 8.76 times the size of the NCI CRL Facility., the estimated annual cost of water and sewer utility services for the NCI CRL facility is $16,532. The NCI CRL Facility based on the period of performance: 12/12/2019-8/31/2020 is $22,955.90. The estimate factors in the numerous lab equipment that will require the use of water and sewer utility services around the clock and various fees from the WSSC including Cross Connection Fee, Bay Restoration Fee, Account Maintenance and Infrastructure Investment charges. The rates and fees are publicly available on WSSC website. TYPE OF ORDER This is severable firm fixed price purchase order The services acquired under this contract are severable services.� Funds are only available for use for the contract line item (CLIN) to which they are obligated.� Unused funds from one CLIN may not rollover for use in other periods. PERIOD OF PERFORMANCE The period of performance shall be for 12-months from 9/1/2020 to 8/31/2021� PLACE OF PERFORMANCE 9615 Medical Center Dr. �Rockville, MD 20850. This notice is not a request for competitive quotation. However, if any interested party, especially small businesses, believes it can meet the above requirement, it may submit a capability statement, proposal, or quotation, which shall be considered by the agency.� The statement of capabilities and any other information furnished must be in writing and must contain material in sufficient detail to allow NCI to determine if the party can perform the requirement.� Responses must be received in the contracting office by 12:00 PM EST on August 17, 2020.� All responses and questions must be emailed to Jolomi Omatete, Contracting Officer via electronic mail at Jolomi.
