Description
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is seeking information from vendors regarding the establishment of a multiple-award Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract to provide Above Standard Equipment (ASE) maintenance and related services for laboratory, scientific, and research equipment. The contract will have a period of performance of one base year and four option years. The FDA anticipates that the contract will include services such as program planning and management, operations and maintenance, reliability-centered maintenance, preventive maintenance, predictive maintenance, corrective maintenance, emergency maintenance and repairs, calibration, certification, validation, equipment troubleshooting and repair, asset management, equipment lifecycle management, replacement planning and recommendations, site scan support, after-hours support, and technical reporting.
• The contract will require maintenance and support for specialty laboratory equipment, including biological safety cabinets, refrigeration systems, autoclaves, fume hoods, water processing systems, air monitoring systems, fire protection systems, uninterruptible power supply (UPS) systems, animal care processing equipment, site scan monitoring equipment, and other specialty laboratory and facility support equipment.
• The primary place of performance will be the FDA White Oak Campus, but services may also be required at additional FDA locations throughout the eastern United States.
• Vendors are encouraged to submit capability statements addressing the questions provided in the RFI, including their experience supporting federal laboratory environments, performing reliability-centered maintenance, and managing large-scale federal maintenance contracts.
