--AMCOM EXPRESS Technical Domain - Open Season

The US Army Aviation and Missile Command (AMCOM) announces an open season for the Technical Domain under the Expedited Professional and Engineering Support Services (EXPRESS) program. AMCOM EXPRESS is a Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) program based upon the use of GSA Federal Supply Schedules for acquiring advisory and assistance services (including all supervision, labor, incidental materials, and travel). These services may take the form of information, advice, opinions, alternatives, analyses, e valuations, recommendations, training, and technical and management support. The complete scope of work for each domain may be reviewed on the website listed below. Six competitively awarded BPAs have been established in the EXPRESS Technical Domain. The BPAs were established with a provision for an annual open season in which the government may add additional BPA teams or allow existing Prime Contractors/Team Leader s the opportunity to restructure existing teams. The purpose of the current open season will allow the existing EXPRESS Technical Domain Prime Contractors/Team Leaders to restructure existing teams to include adding new team members and subcontractors, de leting current team members and subcontractors, changing current subcontractors to team members, changing current team members to subcontractors, and/or revising teaming arrangement(s) to respond to future EXPRESS technical task order requirements. Partie s interested in participating as a team member (GSA Schedule required), subcontractor (no GSA Schedule required) or providing incidental materials (GSA Schedule preferred), are encouraged to pursue appropriate arrangements with the current EXPRESS Technica l Domain Prime Contractor/Team Leaders. A list of the current EXPRESS Prime Contractors/Team Leaders and points of contact for each may be found on the AMCOM EXPRESS website located at https://redstoneappsrv1.redstone.army.mil:4443/acweb/acwebdba.acweb_ho me_child?p_link_id=83. To restructure teaming relationships on existing BPAs, Prime Contractors/Team Leaders are required to submit one hard copy and one CD-ROM containing the following information: a team matrix that identifies both current and planned team members/subcontract ors; a revised Attachment 4 (Team File) to include rates through 2012; and an updated RFQ Attachment 9 (Performance Capability Team File). The current format for Attachment 4 shall be updated to incorporate a separate worksheet that lists each team member according to its paying office. Formats for Attachments 4 and 9 can be found on the EXPRESS website under the Open Season link.
