This solicitation will be issued as an unrestricted procurement with a partial small business set-aside that will result in the award of multiple award contracts that are comprised of two major divisions. The resulting multiple award contracts will be comprised of two major divisions: An Unrestricted Division established for competing and awarding task orders to perform Government of Japan (GOJ) funded projects that support the Defense Policy Review Initiative (DPRI)/Guam Realignment, and a partial Small Business Set Aside (SBSA) Division established for competing projects funded by United States appropriations (in support of either DPRI or non-DPRI requirements). The work shall be located primarily in Hawaii, Guam and the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands (CNMI). The Government may also require natural resource technical services throughout the NAVFAC Pacific area of responsibility (AOR), and other areas in the NAVFAC AOR worldwide as needed. All Natural Resource Technical Services conducted under the resultant contracts shall conform to the statutes, regulations, instructions and guidelines in compliance with the Request for Proposal (RFP).

The resulting contract will include requirements that include but are not limited to, the following: (1) Coordination Meetings; (2) Avian Surveys; (3) Mist netting; (4) Bat Surveys; (5) Insect Surveys; (6) Herpetological Surveys; (7) Snail Surveys; (8) Telemetry; (9) Live Capture Trapping; (10) Botanical Surveys; (11) Plant Collection and Translocation; (12) Biomonitoring; (13) Vegetation Surveys; (14) Vegetation Restoration; (15) Plant Structure Stabilization; (16) Wetland Delineation Surveys; (17) Wetland Restoration Planning; (18) Wetland Restoration Implementation; (19) Streams, Lakes, and Pond Assessment; (20) Ecological Reserve Areas (ERA); (21) Integrated Natural Resources Management Plans (INRMPs); (22) NEPA and Environmental Planning and Supporting Studies; (23) Invasive Species Management; (24) Biosecurity; (25) Invasive Species Fencing; (26) Educational Outreach; and (27) Fire Management Plan; (28) Aerial Mapping and GIS Mapping; (29) Diving and Marine Resource Surveys; (30) Miscellaneous Natural Resource Services. Work will be performed in accordance with the requirements of the Performance Work Statement, and may involve regulatory compliance, planning, analyzing, and various related services on any one or a combination of more than one task order. Exact location of each effort will be designated on individual Task Orders.

The entire term of the contract is a maximum of $70 million or 90 months (consisting of a 12-month base period, six (6) 12-month option periods and one (1) 6-month extension of services period), whichever occurs first. Task orders will typically range between $3,500 and $10,000,000. Task orders may be above this limit; however, contractors are not obligated to accept such task orders under the general terms of the contract. The Government makes no representation as to the number of task orders or actual amount of work to be ordered; however, during the term of the contract, a minimum of $5,000 is guaranteed for each awardee under the contract. As task orders are awarded that exceed the $5,000, the $5,000 minimum guarantee will be deobligated and the Government’s obligation for the minimum guarantee for the contract will be satisfied. The estimated workload for the Unrestricted Division is approximately $2.5 million and the amount for the SBSA Division is approximately $67 million. These amounts may fluctuate with the potential need for the different types of specific services listed above and whether adequate competition exists within the SBSA Division and those contractors are capable of successfully executing those services. If one or no SBSA Division contractors submit a proposal in response to a task order request for proposal (RFP), the Contracting Officer may compete the task order amongst the Unrestricted Division contractors.

The applicable North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) Code is 541620 – Environmental Consulting Services and the corresponding small business size standard is $19 million (which will determine eligibility for awards under the Small Business Set Aside (SBSA) Division).

The Government reserves the right to award more than six (6) contracts if it is determined to be in the best interest of the Government. Successful awardees will compete for future work during the term of the contract.

This is a best value, trade off procurement. The Government intends to evaluate proposals without conducting discussions with any Offeror, except for clarifications as described in FAR 15.306(a). However, the Government reserves the right to conduct discussions with Offerors, if required.
