This is a SOURCES SOUGHT NOTICE (SSN) and is issued for planning purposes, including identifying capable Contractor sources. Responses to this SSN are not offers and therefore cannot be accepted by the Government. Submission of a response is voluntary. No payment will be made for responses. Should a solicitation be issued for the draft requirement described herein, it will be issued pursuant to the acquisition strategy selected by the Contracting Officer. All information received in response to this notice will be treated as business confidential information and exempted from disclosure under the Freedom of Information Act. Nonetheless, submitters should properly mark their responses if the information is proprietary. B) REQUIREMENT OVERVIEW AND SCOPE The Marine Corps installations and ranges are key national defense assets that offer a unique combination of ocean, coastal, riverine, inland, and airspace training areas. The Marine Corps must provide, sustain, and protect mission-capable installations and areas within the military mission footprint from encroachment. Encroachment refers to the factors that degrade or have the potential to degrade the Marine Corps’ capability to conduct current and future military testing, training, and general mission activities. Marine Corps Installations Command (MCICOM), Modernization and Development Directorate’s Engagement and Mission Sustainment (G-7) has a requirement to procure encroachment control planning services that support the protection against encroachment threats to the Marine Corps installations, training, and testing areas. Deliverables include reports, studies, plans, encroachment action plans, and pending encroachment legislation evaluations. C) PURPOSE The Marine Corps is issuing this SSN to: (1) Provide industry with one draft Performance Work Statement (PWS) for Encroachment Control Planning Services for the MCICOM G-7; (2) Identify all businesses that are capable of meeting the draft PWS requirement; (3) Collect industry feedback on the draft PWS requirements; (4) Collect industry recommendations on contract type; and (5) Conduct Market Research on estimated pricing. D) ACQUISITION APPROACH The Marine Corps has not decided on its acquisition approach for the draft PWS. E) SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS Standard company brochures will not be reviewed. Submissions are not to exceed four pages and shall use no less than 11 font size. This page limit is inclusive of all actual pages, including cover pages.
