The US Army Contracting Command - New Jersey, located at Picatinny Arsenal, NJ in support of Armament Research, Development and
Engineering Center (ARDEC) Knowledge Management Office (KMO) is soliciting proposals for IT Services. It is the Government's intention
to solicit as 100% set aside to small businesses and award a maximum of five (5) Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (ID/IQ) Firm
Fixed Price contracts for the period of time not to exceed five years. The total maximum dollar quantity for all task/delivery orders
placed on this program under this contract (or contracts if multiple awards are made) is $72,377,359.43.
The minimum contract obligation for each contract awardee will be $1,000.00 which will be obligated by a Task Order, without a PWS, at
time of contract award.
It is the Government's intent to award Task Order 0001 (Attachment 0001) at the execution of a basic award. No disbursement will be made
until such time that an awardee has received and successfully completed the Task Order. All individual performance period
requirements/delivery schedules for the services/deliverables to be procured will be specified in each order.
Each Ordering Period (OP) of the contract shall be from the date of award until one year later. For example, if the base contract
were awarded on September 23, 2016, OP1 would be from September 23, 2016 to September 22, 2017. OP2 would then begin on September 23,
2017 and end on September 22, 2018. OP3-OP5 would follow the same schedule.
The Government anticipates making the award(s) using the best value trade-off approach. This approach allows award to the offeror(s)
whose proposal is the most advantageous to the Government when considering evaluation factors in addition to price. These evaluation
factors will include Technical/Management, Past Performance, Price. For more information regarding proposal submission or the source
