SOURCES SOUGHT: FOR MARKET RESEARCH PURPOSES ONLY DRAFT Statement of Work Boiler and Pressure Vessel Inspection Services Various Buildings Throughout the General Services Administration (GSA) Region 6 (States of Kansas, Missouri, Iowa, and Nebraska) The resulting award of this SOW will be a firm fixed price (FFP) NAICS: 541340 titled "Building Inspection Services" Size Standard: $7,500,000 FSC Code: 4520 titled "Space and Water Heating Equipment" Background GSA manages approximately 80 owned facilities in the GSA's Heartland Region (IA, KS, MO, NE). Many of these contain boilers and/or pressure vessels. All boilers and pressure vessels permanently located at each facility require annual in-service safety inspections. High-pressure boilers and low-pressure steam heating boilers require an annual internal inspection. Historically, GSA has performed such inspections in-house using a person holding a current commission from the National Board of Boiler and Pressure Vessel Inspectors. Functional changes within the organization over time, have led GSA to outsource this service. Scope of Work The resulting task order from this RFQ requires the Contractor to conduct annual inspections on all boiler and pressure vessels within the GSA Region 6. Appendix A has a listing of all locations and numbers of boilers and pressure vessels in the Region. The inspector shall use the National Board Inspection and/or ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Codes as a guide for the required inspections. Note that one location, the 4300 Goodfellow Federal Complex, requires a site specific work safety plan to be submitted to the GSA CO for review and approval prior to starting work at the location. See Appendix B, Goofellow Federal Complex Environmental Conditions. All low-pressure steam heating boilers (15 p.s.i. or less) and all high-pressure boilers (greater than 15 p.s.i.) shall be externally inspected while in operation (December through March) and internally inspected after the heating season (April to August). All hot water heating boilers and all other types of fired and unfired pressure vessels shall normally be inspected externally while in operation, but may occasionally be inspected internally at the inspector's discretion. GSA or their representative is responsible for preparing each vessel for inspection. Internal Inspections. The yearly internal inspections of all high-pressure boilers and low-pressure steam heating boilers will be conducted during the non-heating season. Hot water heating boilers and fired and unfired pressure vessels shall be inspected internally at the Inspector's discretion. An internal examination may not be required if the pressure vessel is stamped with the original wall thickness and the thickness survey shows no loss of material. Boilers/Pressure vessels in which the original wall thickness is unknown will have an initial internal examination performed to determine the baseline condition of the vessel. Internal examinations shall include a thorough inspection of the following: a. Boiler/Vessel connections: Threaded connections will be inspected to ensure that an adequate number of threads are engaged. All openings leading to any external fittings or controls will examined as thoroughly as possible to ensure they are free from obstructions. b. Boiler/Vessel closures: Any special closures, including those on autoclaves, will be checked for adequacy and wear. A check will also be made for cracks at areas of high stress concentration. c. Boiler/Vessel internals: Where pressure vessels are equipped with removable internals, these internals need not be completely removed, provided evidence exists that deterioration in regions rendered inaccessible by the internals is not occurring to an extent that might constitute a hazard or to an extent beyond that found in more readily accessible parts of the vessel. d. Corrosion: The type of corrosion (pitted or uniform), its location, and any obvious conditions will be recorded. e. Thickness: A thickness examination of the boiler/pressure vessel wall and dished heads and documentation for permanent record keeping. Appropriate non-destructive testing methods will be used as identified by the inspector. Operational Inspections. External/operational inspections will be conducted during the heating season. The inspection will consist of testing the operating controls, safety valves and devices, and a visual inspection of the boiler/pressure vessel. The inspection of the boiler/pressure vessels shall include the following: A thorough external examination of the boiler/pressure vessel and associated equipment including verification of the welded connections to determine the proper joint efficiency to employ during the stress analysis. External examinations include a thorough inspection of the following: a. Insulation or other coverings b. Evidence of leakage c. Structural attachments d. Vessel connections e. Miscellaneous conditions f. Surface inspection g. Welded joints h. A thorough inspection of the boiler/pressure relief valves and other safety devices to ensure the vessel is operating within its specified pressure range and is being adequately protected. It is the responsibility of the Inspector to determine if the equipment appears to be in a safe operating condition, that all repairs and alterations conform to the applicable codes, and that each boiler and pressure vessel will perform in accordance with the applicable inspection requirements. Any deficiencies noted by the Contractor that present a safety or operational risk or failure and which can be resolved easily, shall be resolved while on-site with the assistance of the O&M Contractor and/or GSA representative. Should the inspector, using professional judgment, believe a boiler or pressure vessel to be unsafe at the time of his inspection, he/she may at their discretion, withdraw the certificate and require the boiler or pressure vessel be shutdown until corrective action is taken. The boiler or pressure vessel shall not be placed back in service, nor the certificate reissued until the deficiencies have been corrected and the boiler/pressure vessel is re-inspected and found suitable for use. Period of Performance The period of performance is January 1, 2017 to August 31, 2017. All external inspections shall be coordinated, scheduled and completed with delivery of all GSA Form 1034's (titled "Certificate of Inspection of Pressure Vessels") between January 15 and March 15, 2017. All internal inspections shall be coordinated, scheduled and completed between the end of the heating season and no later than July 15, 2017. All deliverables including reports shall be delivered no later than August 1, 2017. The final completion date for this task order is August 31, 2017. Deliverables Within 10 working days of completing an inspection, the contractor shall furnish the GSA Contracting Officer's Representative (COR) with a written report of findings and deficiencies. The National Board Inspection Code Forms NB-6, Boiler-Fired Pressure Vessel Report of Inspection and NB-7, Pressure Vessels Report of Inspection are acceptable forms for reporting findings. The report shall be generated and forwarded to the GSA COR and Contracting Officer electronically. The Contractor shall also complete, sign, date and post (or supply to the GSA COR on site) a GSA Form 1034 (Certificate of Inspection of Pressure Vessels) on or near the equipment, after each successful inspection. Qualifications All inspections will be accomplished by an Inspector holding a current, valid National Board Commission. The contractor shall supply a copy of the Inspector (or each inspector's) National Board Commission to the GSA COR prior to beginning any inspections. Schedule After award the contractor will be given a contact list of GSA Field Office contacts. All inspections shall be coordinated with the GSA Field Office contacts, or their designated building managers, in sufficient advance notice to avoid operational interruptions and permit GSA representatives time to perform any preparation work required by the contractor. Coordination means the contractor shall contact the GSA Field Office contacts with a proposed schedule, get their agreement, ensure they are aware of any preparation needs, and then, prior to beginning the work, the contractor shall submit the agreed upon schedule to the GSA COR. Any changes to the schedule shall follow the same process. In the event that an inspector travels to a location for inspection and the equipment can't be inspected, the contractor should contact the GSA COR and supply them with proof the inspection was arranged for the time the inspector showed up (email documentation is acceptable) and an estimate for the cost of re-inspection of the location including any required additional administration, air fare, hotel, car rental, per diem, and minimum required labor charges for the travel time of the inspector. GSA will determine if the inspection will be allowed to be rescheduled or skipped and the items deducted. Original travel costs agreed to will be paid.

Numbers are not guaranteed to be 100% accurate but reflect the best information known at the time of RFQ issuance. Once inspections begin, if there is the need to modify the task order to add or delete inspections, the addition and deletion of inspections required will be done at the price quoted per type of inspection at the location you price below. There will be no additional allowance given for travel if an additional inspection(s) is/are required unless it is such a large addition that it would require the contractor to stay an additional night at the location. Likewise, for the deletion of inspection(s), there will not be a reimbursement to GSA for travel costs if an inspection is deleted from the task order unless the deletion is such a large deletion that it would not require the vendor to stay at that location. For example, if you quote a price of $300 for a pressure vessel inspection for Wichita, and it happens there are actually 12 PVs required and not 11 as stated in this SOW, the GSA will use the $300 for the additional PV inspection to be issued via bilateral task order modification and no additional travel costs will be given. For example is you quote a price of $300 for a pressure vessel inspection for Wichita, and it happens there are actually 10 PVs required and not 11, the GSA will use the $300 for the deletion of the PV inspection to be issued via bilateral task order modification.

Appendix B - Goofellow Federal Complex Environmental Conditions The below environmental conditions language, the attached reports provide on a separate CD titled "2008 SCS Engineers Combined Preliminary Assessment/Site Inspection Report with Addendum 1 (Interim Lead Wipe Sampling and Assessment Report)", "2013 Tetra Tech Occupational Exposure Evaluation Report" and "The Safety Fact Sheets" provided for each contaminant are incorporated into the contract, effective February 19, 2016. Goodfellow Federal Complex Contract Environmental Conditions Language Many of the facilities and grounds on the Goodfellow Federal Complex, St. Louis, Missouri have been reported to be environmentally contaminated with varying concentrations of hazardous chemicals/materials. The following list of reported environmental contaminants that have the potential to affect worker safety and health is extracted from the 2013 Tetra Tech Occupational Exposure Evaluation Report. ASBESTOS Amosite - trace amounts up to 6% Chrysotile - trace amounts up to 10% Crocidolite - trace amounts Total Asbestos - trace amounts up to 15% TOXIC METALS Antimony Arsenic Barium Beryllium Cadmium Chromium Copper Lead Mercury Selenium Silver Polychlorinated Biphenyls CPCBs) Decachlorobiphenyls Dichlorobiphenyls Heptachlorobiphenyls Hexachlorobiphenyls Monochlorobiphenyls Nonachlorobiphenyls Octachlorobiphenyls Pentachlorobiphenyls Tetrachlorobiphenyls Trichlorobiphenyls Total PCBs Total Petroleum Hydrocarbons (TPHs) Diesel Range Organics Gasoline Range Organics Oil Range Organics Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) Acetone Carbon disulfide Dichloroethylene, 1,2-cisMethyl Ethyl Ketone Trichloroethene Xylenes, m Xylenes, p Total Xylenes Semi-Volatile Organic Comoounds (SVOCs) Acenaphthene Acenaphthylene Acetophenone Anthracene Benzaldehyde Benz( a )Anthracene Benzo( a )Pyrene Benzo(b )Flouranthene Benzo(g,h,i)Perylene Benzo(k)Fluoranthene Bis(2-Ethyl Hexyl) Phthalate Biphenyl, 1, 1 ' - Butyl Benzyl Phthalate Caprolactam Carbazole Carbon disulfide Chlorophenyl Phenyl Ether, 4- Chrysene Dibenzo( a,h )Anthracene Dibenzofuran Dichlorophenol, 2,4- Diethyl Phthalate Dimethylphenol, 2,4- Di-n-Butyl Phthalate Di-n-Octylphthalate Fluoranthene Fluorene Hexachlorocyclohexane, beta Ideno( 1,2,3-cd)Pyrene Methylnaphthalene, 2- Methylphenol, 2-, 3-, 4- (Cresols) Naphthalene Nitroaniline, 3- Nitrophenol, 4- Nitrosodiphenylamine, nPentachlorophenols Phenanthrene Phenol Pyrene POISON Cyanide EXPLOSIVE COMPOUNDS AND PHOSPHORUS 2,4-Dinitrotoluene 2,6-Dinitroto luene 2-Amino-4, 6-Dinitrotoluene 4-Nitrotoluene Nitrobenzene Phosphorus Approximately 82 total contaminants that have the potential to affect worker safety and health were reported by Tetra Tech on site (Cyanide was reported by SCS Engineers 2008 Combined Preliminary Assessment/Site Inspection Report (starting on page 4-19) and is provided as part of this list of contaminants). The added totals of each variation of the asbestos contaminants, the xylene contaminants, and the polychlorinated biphenyls contaminates may make them a potential safety and health hazard as well. A list of contaminants and their locations can be found in Appendix B, Tables 1 through 14 of the 2013 Tetra Tech Occupational Exposure Evaluation Report. The 2013 Tetra Tech report does not constitute a complete list of potential contaminates. Twenty-one additional reports assessing various aspects of the environmental contamination on the Goodfellow Federal Complex are available upon request. Safety Fact Sheets are provided for each contaminant (located on the provided cd). All these reports were compiled to assess the contamination from an environmental perspective. Environmental action thresholds do not necessarily correlate into OSHA permissible exposure limits (PELs) because they were the result of testing/sampling in a static environment. OSHA requirements involve sampling/testing using an 8-hour time weighted average/30-minute excursion limit while each job specific activity is in progress. Contractors, whose employees are engaged in work that could potentially put them into contact with, or disturb any and/or all of the environmental contaminants present in such a manner as to make them airborne, shall perform the appropriate hazard assessment and testing to protect their employees according to OSHA 29 CFR 1910 and 1926 regulations. The hazard assessment shall include industrial hygiene sampling/testing as necessary. Contractors shall take the appropriate protective measures to ensure their actions do not place other federal complex personnel at risk (i.e. post warning signs, install engineering controls, create barriers, erect containment, control access to work areas, etc.). Contractors will also ensure their employees decontaminate as required prior to leaving work areas and/or the job site so they do not cross contaminate non-contaminated areas/spaces. Prior to beginning any work, the contractor shall prepare and submit to the GSA Contracting Officer for review, a site specific work/safety plan describing the protective measures they will use. Contractors shall provide any sampling/testing results as part of the safety plan. Multiple building interiors (first and second floors) are reported to contain varying amounts of lead based-paint and/or particulate lead and mercury that could affect worker safety and health. Contaminated areas include the building spaces above and below the suspended ceiling tiles. Asbestos containing materials are also present in some of these spaces and are currently being managed in place. Work in areas that has the potential to disturb asbestos containing materials requires an asbestos work permit to be issued from the GSA Building Manager prior to the start of work. Construction projects that may affect asbestos containing materials require a pre-assessment to be accomplished and coordination through the GSA Region 6 Asbestos Program Manager prior to the start of work. The asbestos pre-assessment for construction projects is typically performed by GSA. The Contractor is to verify with the GSA Contracting Officer before incorporating the pre-assessment into their proposal. Multiple building interiors (basement/basement crawl spaces/utility tunnels) are reported to contain a variety of environmental contaminants that could affect worker safety and health. Contamination includes friable asbestos in the soil, different toxic metals on building surfaces and in the soil, different explosive compounds and phosphorus in the sump water and soil, and different organic compounds in the sump water and soil. Asbestos containing materials are also present in some of these spaces and are currently being managed in place. Work in areas that has the potential to disturb asbestos containing materials requires an asbestos work permit to be issued from the GSA Building Manager prior to the start of work. Construction projects that may affect asbestos containing materials require a pre-assessment to be accomplished and coordination through the GSA Region 6 Asbestos Program Manager prior to the start of work. The asbestos pre-assessment for construction projects is typically performed by GSA. The Contractor is to verify with the GSA Contracting Officer before incorporating the pre-assessment into their proposal. Multiple building interiors (building electrical spaces and interior/exterior ground soil and ground water) are reported to contain a variety of polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) contamination. Building interior contamination includes PCBs in the concrete where PCB oil filled transformers used to be. The crawlspace soil of Building 108B is also reported to have PCB contamination. Exterior building ground soil and ground water is also contaminated with PCB contamination that could affect worker safety and health. Maintenance and construction projects that could disturb PCB laden concrete, interior/exterior ground soil or ground water must be coordinated through the GSA Region 6 Environmental Program Manager prior to the start of work. Multiple federal complex exterior areas are reported to be contaminated with a variety of environmental contaminants in the ground soil and ground water that could affect worker safety and health. Maintenance and construction projects that could disturb federal complex grounds/ground water must be coordinated through the GSA Region 6 Environmental Program Manager prior to the start of work. GSA Region 6 Public Building Services has attached the 2013 Tetra Tech Occupational Exposure Evaluation Report and the SCS Engineers 2008 Combined Preliminary Assessment/Site Inspection Report with Addendum l (Interim Lead Wipe Sampling and Assessment Report) to this contract modification. GSA Region 6 Public Building Services made these reports and the twenty-one additional reports available in a reading library located at the Goodfellow Federal Office Complex, GSA St. Louis West Field Office, First Floor, Bldg. 107, 4300 Goodfellow Boulevard, St. Louis Missouri. In February, 2016, the GSA Region 6 Public Building Service contracted for additional lead and asbestos air sampling and lead wipe and lead micro-vacuum sampling in several buildings. GSA will make the results of this sampling/testing available upon receipt and review (expected to be released by the end of March, 2016). Attached - 2008 SCS Engineers Combined Preliminary Assessment/Site Inspection Report with Addendum l(Interirn Lead Wipe Sampling and Assessment Report) and 2013 Tetra Tech Occupational Exposure Evaluation Report.

Thus, this RFQ is a lowest priced, technically acceptable (LBTA) RFQ. Your technical quote must have a "Go" in order for your price to be evaluated. If a vendor fails to receive a "Go" on the technical criteria, their price will not be evaluated. Technical Evaluation Factor 1 National Board Commissions (Go/No Go) For each person your firm intends to perform inspections, list their name, location of the inspections they will be performing, whether they will be performing internal and/or external inspections, and a copy of their National Board Commission. One spreadsheet with the names, location(s), the types of the inspections they will be performing, and whether they have a National Board Commission will be sufficient for the spreadsheet. You must also include the copies of the National Board Commissions as an attachment. There must be a National Board Commission for each individual performing inspections. Failure of your firm to provide an individual with a National Board Commission for each location will render your technical quote with a "No Go." Your firm may have an inspector perform inspections in multiple locations. If you originally quote an inspector, and you must make a substitution, that inspector substitution must meet the same qualifications and be approved in writing by the Contracting Officer. Sample Spreadsheet: Name Location External Internal NBC John Doe Wichita, KS x x x John Doe Kansas City, KS x x Sally Smith Pittsburg, KS x x John Doe Pittsburg, KS x x Price Evaluation for Award The below price formula will be used on each CLIN. The sum of each CLIN as determined by the formula below then be added together to determine the lowest price. (Cost per internal inspection quoted multiplied (x) by number of internal inspections) + (Cost Per external inspection quoted multiplied (x) by number of external inspections) plus (+) travel costs equal (=) your total price quoted for that CLIN. When using a spread sheet be careful of rounding issues. The shown numbers should match up with the totals to the penny.

Many of these contain boilers and/or pressure vessels. All boilers and pressure vessels permanently located at each facility require annual in-service safety inspections. High-pressure boilers and low-pressure steam heating boilers require an annual internal inspection. Historically, GSA has performed such inspections in-house using a person holding a current commission from the National Board of Boiler and Pressure Vessel Inspectors. Functional changes within the organization over time, have led GSA to outsource this service.
