The base period is one year and up to four option periods. The solicitation will be issued as a 100% small business set-aside. The Government is contemplating the award of a firm-fixed price (FFP) multiple-award indefinite delivery, indefinite quantity (IDIQ) contract for which the government intends to award a target of three contracts. The magnitude of this construction project is more than $10M for each contract. Award of a FFP multiple-award IDIQ contract from the solicitation will be made on the basis of Best Value to the Government using price and past performance as evaluation factors with past performance being more important than price. The Government reserves the right to award a contract other than the lowest price offeror.
