Site and Facility Management Contractors (FMCs)
DOE’s Mission Energy Security – Protection of high risk, high payoff RD&D of cleaner more
affordable and reliable alternate energy sources, e.g. Advanced Research Projects Agency-Energy
Nuclear Security – National Nuclear Security Administration guards: Military applications of nuclear energy Military nuclear propulsion plants (i.e. nuclear
submarines) Nuclear Nonproliferation – Detect, secure, and dispose
of vulnerable nuclear weapons Conversion of high grade to low grade Uranium Computational analysis of nuclear warheads
Environmental Responsibility – Stop or reverse environmental damage caused by our legacy of nuclear warhead production
Enhance Efforts in Scientific Discovery and Innovation – The Office of Science is the largest single supporter of research in the physical sciences
Site and Facility Management Contractors (FMCs)
Consist of 85% of our procurement base, we retain only 15% DOE has approximately 15,000 FTEs and 100,000 contractor
workforce Not bundled (ref. FAR 2.1). They are sanctioned by FAR 17.6 Limited Liability Corporations (LLC) – Only responsibility is to
manage and operate specific facility Performance-based, Award Fee, and Award Term Approximately 40 FMCs, 17 of which are National Laboratories
(NL) NLs are Federally Funded Research & Development Centers
(FFRDCs) (ref. FAR 2.1)
Site and Facility Management Contractors (FMCs) Required to have a small business subcontracting plan Subcontracting plan goals are challenging We flow down small business prime contract solicitation methods to FMCs
to help them achieve subk goals – Best Practice FMCs do not follow FAR when they subcontract Best commercial practices – Faster awards, cannot be protested
Conduct a Mentor-Protégé Program – Best Practice Objective is to graduate protégés to large businesses that can compete
for Federal prime contracts One of 13 government agencies that have an Mentor-Protégé Program Voluntary, no appropriated funds, paid through subk costs Mentors are large or small DOE contractors Protégés must be small socio-economic – goaled groups Prospective protégés petition mentors Protégés may subcontract with other FMCs Sole-source contracts at 8(a) thresholds ($4.5M / $6.5M)
