The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) is seeking a contractor to manage the supply chain for Emergency Support Function #13 (ESF #13), which includes procurement and delivery of critical response kits and equipment. The contractor will be responsible for providing approximately 500 Basic Law Enforcement Officer Quick Response Team (QRT) Kits with the capability for standard deliveries within 30 days and emergency deliveries within 24 hours. Deliveries must conform to specified packaging and labeling standards for both delivery types. The contract is for a Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) expected to start by March 2025, spanning a base period and four optional years. Requirements also stipulate the handling of substitutions and handling of discontinued items with prior approval from government representatives. Orders will be communicated via email and are subject to inspection and acceptance criteria set by designated government representatives. This initiative illustrates the government's commitment to equipping law enforcement quickly and effectively during emergencies, adhering to established guidelines and performance standards.
The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) is issuing this Request for Information (RFI) to assess market interest and capabilities for providing Basic FLEO QRT Kits. This RFI serves as preliminary research and does not solicit proposals or imply any commitment for a contract. The ATF seeks potential vendors to identify whether a set-aside for small businesses is appropriate for this requirement under NAICS code 339113.
The period of performance for anticipated Blanket Purchase Agreements (BPA) will start with an award targeted for March 2025, involving a base period and four one-year options. Interested parties should submit details including company information, past experience, and a capability statement by specified deadlines. Notably, no pricing information is to be included in any responses. Questions must be sent via email, and the document outlines the need to avoid proprietary information. Attachments include a draft Statement of Work and relevant compliance documents. This RFI aims to gather insights for developing a potential procurement strategy while ensuring adherence to market standards and socio-economic considerations.
