USPS IDIQ JOC Washington DC

Introduction The Postal Service intends to award one or more Indefinite Delivery, Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) Construction Contracts to facilitate various capital improvement and repair and alteration projects within the geographic area(s) described herein. For all awarded contracts, the base term of the contract will be for one (1) year; with five (5) possible one-year options. The construction cost and performance time for each individual Job Order/Work Order issued under the contract will vary based on the scope of that order and the specific period of performance negotiated. Construction activities may occur in occupied and operating mail processing facilities (possibly 24 hours per day/7 days per week) and in such a case, construction activities must not interfere with mail processing operations. Unless stated herein or otherwise amended, this document, in conjunction with the latest edition of the USPS Supplying Principles & Practices, will be considered policy for the evaluation of an offering firm's qualifications for this solicitation. The Postal Service is interested in selecting the most highly qualified firms for this effort. The information provided in the Technical Proposal, as well as the Price Proposal, will be the basis for the evaluation of offering firms. II. Contract Description An indefinite delivery indefinite quantity contract is a contract pursuant to which the contractor will perform a series of individual projects at different Postal Service facilities. The solicitation, and resulting contract includes, by reference, a Construction Task Catalog (CTC) (also referred to as a Unit Price Book) produced and maintained by Gordian, that contains approximately 200,000 line items and service tasks with preset unit prices. All unit prices are based on local labor, material and equipment prices to perform the activity. The solicitation, and resulting contract also includes Technical Specifications which set forth the quality of Workmanship and quality of materials required for the service tasks. Offering Firms responding to this solicitation will propose an Adjustment Factor (also referred to as a Price Multiplier) to be applied to the CTC Schedule. The Adjustment Factor will apply to each unit price in the CTC, except for any line item specifically noted otherwise. As projects are initiated by the Postal Service, the contractor will participate in a Joint Scope Meeting, at which the scope of work for the individual project will be explained to the contractor, and the contractor an opportunity to ask questions, inspect the site and make recommendations with regards to means and methods, scheduling and other aspects of the project as circumstances dictate. The Postal Service will then prepare a Detailed Scope of Work and issue a Request for Proposal to the contractor. The contractor will prepare a Price Proposal Package for the project including, among other items, a Price Proposal and a schedule. In general, the Price Proposal will be prepared by identifying the proper construction tasks from the CTC and multiplying the pre-set unit prices by the quantity required and by the appropriate AdjustmentFactors. The Postal Service will review the Price Proposal Package and may request changes. Oncean acceptable Work Order Package has been submitted, the Postal Service Contracting Officer will issue a Notice to Proceed for the project. A separate work order will be issued for each project. Questions related to assembling the submission should be directed to Paige Lyne at Jacquelyn.p.lyne@usps.gov . DO NOT rely on advice from anyone other than those listed herein, unless directed to do so by those listed.
