AI Contract Overview

The Environmental Protection Agency's Office of Water is seeking to establish a fixed-rate, indefinite quantity contract to provide analytical support services for the analysis of conventional and nonconventional pollutants using classical wet chemistry techniques. This contract will primarily support the development of industrial discharge regulations by analyzing samples from various industrial categories, including wastewater, sludge, sediment, soil, tissue, and pulp, among other solid and aqueous matrices. The data generated under this contract must meet rigorous method-specific quality control standards, as it will be critical for regulatory decision-making. Only the specified analytical methods outlined in the contract will be accepted, and data must be delivered in both hard copy and electronic formats. The contractor is expected to maintain a comprehensive laboratory quality management program, have appropriately equipped facilities, and employ personnel with advanced expertise in analytical chemistry and microbiological methods. This effort will be executed through a firm-fixed-price indefinite delivery indefinite quantity (FFP/IDIQ) contract, anticipated to span five years with multiple awards expected. One award will be specifically set aside for small businesses, while others will be open to both large and small business entities. The solicitation will be released online via the EPA’s website, with no printed copies available, and prospective bidders must download the relevant documents electronically. The solicitation was planned for release in mid-October 2007 and is managed by the Cincinnati Acquisition Division with direct contracting officer contact available for inquiries.

Full Description

The United States Environmental Protection Agency (U.S. EPA), Office of Water, seeks to negotiate a fixed-rate, indefinite quantity contract for analytical support services for analysis of conventional and nonconventional pollutants by classical wet chemistry techniques. This contract will be used by the EPA to support various studies, a majority of which will involve development of industrial discharge regulations for the Engineering and Analysis Division. This contract will, therefore, involve the analysis of influent, in-process, effluent and other samples from multiple industrial categories. Analyses will be required for samples of the following matrix types: wastewater, sludge (biosolids), sediment, soil, tissue, and pulp, as well as other solid and aqueous matrices. Because the analytical data provided under this contract will be used by the EPA to develop industrial effluent discharge regulations, which govern the disposal of pollutants from industrial sources, data must be of highest possible quality. Analyses must comply with the specifications of the methods, as amended in the contract, and results must meet all of the method- and contract-specific quality control requirements. Substitute methods will not be permitted. Data will be delivered in both hard copy and electronic formats, as specified in the contract. It is essential that the Contractor employ a comprehensive laboratory quality management program, meet facilities and equipment requirements, and provide personnel that demonstrate superior levels of technical expertise in analytical chemistry and microbiological techniques. A FFP/IDIQ contract is anticipated, with a single ordering period of 5 years. This RFP will result in multiple awards, with one award being set aside for small business concerns. Other awards resulting from this solicitation will be available to both large and small businesses. The RFP will be released through the internet on the EPA's homepage at www.epa.gov/oam/cinn_cmd/.Interested bidders will be required to download the RFP and related documents from this web site.No printed copies of the RFP will be available. It is anticipated that this RFP will be available about the second week in October 2007.
