You may request copies of these documents by contacting either Krista.Heartwell@dhs.gov or Jim.Dawson@dhs.gov. In addition, the rate for janitorial labor from Wage Determination No. 2005-2167, revision 4 dated 10.11.07 is incorporated herein.    

A site visit will be held on Tuesday, March 11, 2008 at Chicago Midway International Airport at 10:00 am.     Candidates interested in participating must contact Haseena Shaheed at 773-498-1325 to confirm their attendance in participating in the site visit by Monday, March 10, 2008.     The meeting location will be at the beginning of the bridge on the east side of Cicero Avenue in the terminal building which is prior to entering the security checkpoint. No technical or contractual questions will be answered nor will any additional instruction outside the Statement of Work be provided on the site visit.     Should a vendor have questions of either nature please direct them to Krista.Heartwell@dhs.gov at the TSA HQ Acquisition Office.

The provision at Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 52.212-1, Instructions to Offerors-Commercial applies to this acquisition.     The provision at 52.212-2, Evaluation-Commercial Items applies to this acquisition.
(a) The Government will award a contract resulting from this solicitation to the responsible offeror whose offer conforming to the solicitation will be most advantageous to the Government, price and other factors considered. The following factors shall be used to evaluate offers: Factor 1-Technical Capability; Factor 2-Past Performance; Factor 3-Price.

The evaluation factors above are listed in descending order of importance.     Technical capability and past performances when combined are more important than price.     As offerors become more equal in technical capability and past performance, price becomes increasingly more important.

Technical Capability:     Besides standard company marketing brochures that may explain technical capability, the proposal shall include a description of the Offeror's technical capability to accomplish the requirements of the SOW.     The technical capability requirement includes the requirement that the Offeror must currently have leased office and storage space at MDW International Airport.     The MDW Department of Airport (DOA) will not lease office space and storage facilities directly to 3rd party vendors.     The Contractor must include the estimated hours and number of employees in their description of technical capability to meet the janitorial requirement.     Note that the ETD Shelter cleaning under SOW paragraph 4.2.7, is only for 2 years. The outdoor ETD Shelters are no longer used and shall be removed in the future at an undetermined time therefore the shelter cleaning has been separated from the rest of the work for pricing purposes.     Limit your response to no more than five pages for technical capability.     This limit does not include standard company marketing brochures for technical capability included in the proposal.    

Past Performance:     Provide two (2) referenced contracts within the past three (3) years.     The two referenced contracts should be similar in scope and complexity to what is required under this RFQ.     Provide a short description of the contract, dollar value, and a customer point of contact (POC) name, phone number and email address.

Price Proposal:     Provide the pricing for the base year period and all four (4) yearly option periods in the pricing table provide in this solicitation.     The contract pricing must incorporate at a minimum the DOL Wage Determination rates in order to be compliant with public law.      

(b) Options: The Government will evaluate offers for award purposes by adding the total price for all options to the total price for the basic requirement. The Government may determine that an offer is unacceptable if the option prices are significantly unbalanced. Evaluation of options shall not obligate the Government to exercise the option(s).     The price for Options 2, 3 and 4 shall not include cost for the cleaning of ETD Shelters (SOW paragraph 4.2.7).     Option 1 will include janitorial services for Nine (9) TSA ETD Shelters as shown in the pricing table.

(c) A written notice of award or acceptance of an offer mailed or otherwise furnished to the successful offeror within the time for acceptance specified in the offer, shall result in a binding contract without further action by either party. Before the offer?s specified expiration time, the Government may accept an offer (or part of an offer), whether or not there are negotiations after its receipt, unless a written notice of withdrawal is received before award.

The following FAR provisions and clauses are applicable to this acquisition: 52.212-3, Offeror Representations and Certifications-Commercial Items; 52.212-4, Contract Terms and Conditions-Commercial Items; 52.212-5, Contract Terms and Conditions Required to Implement Statutes or Executive Orders-Commercial Items; 52.217-5, Evaluation of Options; 52.217-8, Option to Extend Services; 52.217-9, Option to Extend the Term of the Contract; 52.223-10, Waste Reduction Program; 52.232-1, Payments; 52.232-25, Prompt Payment; 52.233-3, Protest After Award (Aug 1996).     The following clauses in 52.212-5 are applicable: 52.219-6, Notice of Total Small Business Set-Aside (June 2003); 52.225-1, Buy American Act-Supplies; 52.232.33, Payment by Electronic Funds Transfer-Central Contractor Registration; 52.222-41, Service Contract Act of 1965.     These provisions and clauses may be found online at www.acquisition.gov/far.
