Summary Information
The current contract structure represents five major site support contracts: Research and Development Support (which includes R&D, Program, Analytical, and Project support); Technical and Management Support; Site Administration Support; Site Operations Support; and Information Technology and Engineering Support.
It is expected that the follow-on contracts will be restructured to meet the NETL current and future requirements. NETL is in the early planning stages for these follow-on contracts. NETL expects to continue to have the need for Research and Development Services/Support, Program Support, Analytical Services/Support, Project Support, Information Technology and Engineering Support, Administrative Support, and Facility Operation Support. Once available, the restructured contract requirements will be posted to this reading room site. The reading room will also be the location for future information regarding these requirements including any releases of Draft Statement of Works and preliminary data for the various solicitations. It is planned that this reading room will work in conjunction with FEDBIZOPPS for release of offeror notifications as we progress through the solicitation process.
This information should always be viewed as being "draft" until the solicitations are officially released to the public later this year (expected release dates are around December 2008). |
