DRIP TAPE LOMPOC FARM, UNICOR

The United States Department of Justice is seeking a contractor to supply 7.3 million linear feet of agricultural drip-tape for the Lompoc Farm. The drip-tape must meet specific technical requirements, including a wall thickness of 5 mil, an emitter spacing of 12 inches, and a flow rate of 0.45 gallons per minute per 100 feet. The contractor must deliver the drip-tape to the Lompoc Farm within 120 days of receipt of the order, with an initial delivery of 300,000 feet within 30 days. The contract will be awarded to the responsible offeror whose offer is most advantageous to the government, with technical factors being significantly more important than price. Some key points to consider: • The contractor must provide a total of 7,300,000 linear feet of drip-tape. • The material must be provided in bulk rolls of 7,000 to 10,000 ft rolls. • All material must be clearly marked with linear footage, wall thickness, flow rate, emitter spacing, and manufacturing lot number. • The contractor must ensure that all employees take appropriate privacy training, including subcontractors who have access to personally identifiable information (PII). • The contractor must comply with Federal and Agency records management policies, including those associated with the safeguarding of records containing PII.
