S--INTERIM CONTRACT TO PROVIDE FSBP MAINTENANCE SERVICES AT FORT HOOD TEXAS

This announcement is a notice of intent to award a sole source contract for a five-month period. The MICC Fort Hood intends to enter into a non-competitive interim contract with the incumbent contractor, TSI CORP., 501 SOUTH RANCHO DR STE I-58, LAS VEGAS, NV, 89106-4838, to provide First Sergeants Barracks Program Maintenance Services for the period 1 May - 30 September 2011. The incumbent is a small business under NAICS 561210, Facilities Support Services (Size Standard $35.5M). The contract action calls for the contractor to provide all resources and management necessary to perform maintenance of Unaccompanied Personnel Housing (UPH) facilities. Tasks include minor repair of carpentry, plumbing, electrical, painting, custodial, and other duties associated with repair, replacement, and maintenance of Government owned facilities. The resultant contract will be a firm fixed price contract and will sustain critical performance during the procurement of the larger follow-on contract action. Award of this interim contract to another contractor would entail a significant effort to phase-in, inventory and inspect a significant amount of government furnished property, and acclimate to the Fort Hood optempo. It is therefore determined that there is the likelihood that a new contractor would suffer undue risk attempting to manage phase-in and provide continued high level contract support, making the attempt costly and inefficient for all parties. Firms are requested to submit any questions/concerns regarding this non-competitive interim contract directly to the contract specialist at e-mail address: [email protected] and copy furnish the contracting officer at email address: [email protected] no later than 28 April 2011 at 2:00 p.m. CST.
