PEARL HARBOR (NNS) -- Naval Facilities Engineering Command (NAVFAC) Pacific awarded a maximum amount $7 million firm-fixed price, indefinite-delivery indefinite-quantity (IDIQ), architect-engineer services contract Dec. 14 to RSA Engineering Inc. of Anchorage, Alaska for various National Science Foundation projects.
Work to be performed includes engineering services for NSF projects primarily in Antarctica (95%) and in New Zealand, including construction surveillance and inspection.
"The National Science Foundation appreciates the support provided by the Naval Facilities Command Pacific. This longstanding relationship, which began in 1983, has helped to assure that the United States Antarctic Program facilities met their requirements," said William Colston, division director for Antarctic infrastructure and logistics in NSF's Office of Polar Programs. "NAVFAC's continuing support will provide quality assurance through independent technical and analytical reviews and on-site inspections of construction and facilities in Antarctica."
The work also includes services to assure that construction is being performed in compliance with contract drawings and specifications, with an emphasis on mechanical and electrical work.
The term of the contract is not to exceed 60 months, with an expected completion date of December 2015. This contract was competitively procured via the Navy Electronic Commerce Online (NECO) website with two proposals received.
