The Department of Energy has updated the base and option periods for two separate draft Request for Proposals for infrastructure support services at the Paducah and Portsmouth sites. The Portsmouth draft now includes a three-year base period and a two year option period, rather than the originally planned two-year base period and three one-year option periods. Infrastructure services at the Portsmouth site are currently being performed by Wastren-EnergX Mission Support under a contract set to expire in July 2015. The new contract is being set-aside for small businesses, and is expected to include Firm-Fixed-Price, Cost Reimbursement, and Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract line items (CLINs), DOE said.
