12445122R0041 Phase I Preproposal Conference_ TRANSCRIPT 2022-08-12.docx

0:0:0.0 --> 0:0:1.790 Alves, Steven - FS OK so.

0:0:2.770 --> 0:0:15.0 Alves, Steven - FS For today's meeting, we're going to go over the design build for the luncheon, London Ranger District Office compound. This particular project we're gonna go over.

0:0:17.290 --> 0:0:25.0 Alves, Steven - FS Specifically phase one, which is the most important to all of you today, so.

0:0:26.330 --> 0:0:28.330 Alves, Steven - FS I will go ahead and jump right in.

0:0:32.190 --> 0:0:43.140 Alves, Steven - FS So the US Force Service was established in 1905. We managed the public lands in the form of National Forest and national grasslands.

0:0:44.90 --> 0:0:55.890 Alves, Steven - FS We look uh, provide technical and financial assistance to States and private forestry agencies and make up the largest forestry research organization in the world.

0:0:56.950 --> 0:1:8.840 Alves, Steven - FS Are within the slide show there is a link to this is who we are and this gives you the values. The purpose of the agency and.

0:1:13.440 --> 0:1:24.910 Alves, Steven - FS And how we focus our job towards a preserving and promoting the national forests and grasslands. It's actually a very good document.

0:1:25.880 --> 0:1:26.230 Alves, Steven - FS Uh.

0:1:27.110 --> 0:1:43.620 Alves, Steven - FS So I won't read these slides, but beta, but some of the high points. Again, the Forest Service is to care for the natural resources in ways that promote lasting economic, ecological and social vitality.

0:1:47.260 --> 0:1:50.460 Alves, Steven - FS And our motto is caring for the land and serving the people.

0:1:58.390 --> 0:2:5.0 Alves, Steven - FS So for today's agenda, again, we're gonna do a quick introduction. We'll look at the project scope.

0:2:5.330 --> 0:2:25.580 Alves, Steven - FS Uh, the strategy for this acquisition project goals. We're gonna we prepare to overview video of the London site. So that way you get kind of a snippet view as to should you be selected one of the best qualified what you're in for on on location?

0:2:27.170 --> 0:2:39.560 Alves, Steven - FS Our main focus of discussion is phase one. We're going to look briefly at the pre screening criteria and then we'll go over some of the evaluation methodology.

0:2:40.400 --> 0:2:45.960 Alves, Steven - FS Criterias 1-2 and three which are the focus for the evaluation board.

0:2:47.420 --> 0:2:55.590 Alves, Steven - FS We'll touch briefly on phase two. Phase two is where we actually request proposals from those.

0:2:58.610 --> 0:3:0.620 Alves, Steven - FS Evaluated as best qualified.

0:3:1.800 --> 0:3:15.130 Alves, Steven - FS And we're also providing the technical references that will be used in phase two and we'll go over briefly why we're giving you those technical guidance and references for phase one.

0:3:18.390 --> 0:3:23.720 Alves, Steven - FS So, as stated before, we're going to do a quick scope goal strategy and then we'll do a video.

0:3:27.460 --> 0:3:28.920 Alves, Steven - FS So the project scope.

0:3:29.950 --> 0:3:35.60 Alves, Steven - FS The Forest Service intends to do a single award design build contract.

0:3:35.700 --> 0:3:40.240 Alves, Steven - FS Contractural do all provide all labor, materials, supplies, equipment.

0:3:41.130 --> 0:3:47.440 Alves, Steven - FS Uh technical services and other items as necessary to complete the project.

0:3:49.610 --> 0:4:2.890 Alves, Steven - FS This work is going to require multidisciplinary engineering. You're gonna have to have a variety of skills to design the project and then to actually execute the construction.

0:4:4.260 --> 0:4:18.170 Alves, Steven - FS Working in close coordination with the Forest Service will work with you on your final designs to ensure that they're meeting the requirements of state, federal and the USDA Forest Service.

0:4:20.400 --> 0:4:21.70 Alves, Steven - FS And then.

0:4:22.40 --> 0:4:38.810 Alves, Steven - FS The guiding principles will make sure that we're looking at the guiding principles for or green green facilities in this particular case, we're looking for lead or green globe certification for new facilities.

0:4:40.170 --> 0:4:49.160 Alves, Steven - FS This is the first new facility that the four services built in. I've been told approximately 25 years, so this effort is.

0:4:50.320 --> 0:4:59.790 Alves, Steven - FS Kind of a trend setter, so there's a lot of opportunity for success and it's a high visibility project.

0:5:6.760 --> 0:5:8.270 Alves, Steven - FS Sorry, somebody was stuck in the lobby.

0:5:14.940 --> 0:5:19.450 Alves, Steven - FS OK. So we are gonna this is 100% set aside for small business.

0:5:20.630 --> 0:5:21.400 Alves, Steven - FS The.

0:5:22.540 --> 0:5:27.210 Alves, Steven - FS Acquisition is going to be a two phase design build and corns with far 36.

0:5:28.750 --> 0:5:32.590 Alves, Steven - FS One firm will be awarded a firm fixed price contract.

0:5:34.420 --> 0:5:42.30 Alves, Steven - FS And is going to be rated on best value to the government considering both price and non price factors.

0:5:50.730 --> 0:5:52.580 Alves, Steven - FS Some of our project goals.

0:5:53.410 --> 0:5:53.830 Alves, Steven - FS Uh.

0:5:54.760 --> 0:6:7.670 Alves, Steven - FS You'll see a safe, secure, effective, efficient, flexible and attractive workplace for the London Ranger district. And we're thinking at a minimum, the next 50 years.

0:6:9.840 --> 0:6:21.830 Alves, Steven - FS We're going to be out of our Ranger districts. We do things such as world class science and technology and Land Management. So in addition to being a.

0:6:23.90 --> 0:6:24.920 Alves, Steven - FS An actual office building.

0:6:25.810 --> 0:6:33.20 Alves, Steven - FS We are providing other services, so this compound provides all of these types of services to the community.

0:6:34.630 --> 0:6:43.800 Alves, Steven - FS Uh, some specific goals that were hoping to acquire are the use of mass timber and innovative wood structure methods when possible.

0:6:46.620 --> 0:6:49.240 Alves, Steven - FS Again, we're looking at net zero energy.

0:6:50.920 --> 0:7:3.230 Alves, Steven - FS We're looking at when you look at those wood products, if you try to use them, can you source them from the southern region, which is where London is located?

0:7:4.680 --> 0:7:12.750 Alves, Steven - FS And then we would like to achieve at least the lead silver or two green globes certification for the completed project.

0:7:20.0 --> 0:7:34.370 Alves, Steven - FS So what I'm going to do now is I'm going to stop presenting and I'm going to turn over the screen to the Daniel Boones chief Engineer Bar Dasher. And he's gonna play you a short video.

0:7:43.190 --> 0:7:44.540 Asher, Bradley - FS Hi, my name's Bart Asher.

0:7:46.210 --> 0:7:51.890 Asher, Bradley - FS I'm I'm one of the engineers for the forest. I am going to play you a short overview video and go over a couple of slides.

0:7:52.620 --> 0:7:53.140 Asher, Bradley - FS Umm.

0:7:54.550 --> 0:7:58.40 Asher, Bradley - FS Before we turn to Steve, Bear with me here as I get this shared.

0:8:8.160 --> 0:8:22.700 Asher, Bradley - FS K, As Steve mentioned, he he's right. It's been a while since we've built a component. I think it's 10 years instead of 25. But but it's been quite some time. So here, here's a quick overview video of of the site in London for you and then we'll talk about a couple other slides.

0:8:27.430 --> 0:8:30.930 Asher, Bradley - FS The City of London is the seat of Laurel County, Kentucky.

0:8:31.560 --> 0:8:40.150 Asher, Bradley - FS With over 8000 residents, London has been named the cycling capital of Kentucky, Kentucky's fifth official trail town.

0:8:40.850 --> 0:8:49.20 Asher, Bradley - FS Has been certified as a tree city by Tree City, USA and annually hosts the World Chicken Festival.

0:8:49.700 --> 0:8:54.990 Asher, Bradley - FS Which celebrates the life of Colonel Sanders, founder of Kentucky Fried Chicken.

0:8:55.880 --> 0:9:2.960 Asher, Bradley - FS The City of London's rights were granted in the Commonwealth of Kentucky in February of 1836.

0:9:4.430 --> 0:9:9.710 Asher, Bradley - FS US Route 25 passes through London and is designated as London's Main St.

0:9:10.480 --> 0:9:21.640 Asher, Bradley - FS US 25 Leeds, Northwest, about 25 miles to Mount Vernon, KY, and Rockcastle County and South 13 miles to Corbin, which is also in Laurel County.

0:9:22.780 --> 0:9:26.320 Asher, Bradley - FS Interstate 75 runs parallel to US 25.

0:9:27.290 --> 0:9:35.550 Asher, Bradley - FS I-75, The Major north-south Commerce corridor that connects the southeastern regions of the United States to the Great Lakes region.

0:9:37.830 --> 0:9:41.850 Asher, Bradley - FS The City of London has two exits that access I-75.

0:9:42.670 --> 0:9:52.700 Asher, Bradley - FS I-75 Leeds north, approximately 76 miles to Lexington, KY and South, approximately 98 miles to Knoxville, TN.

0:9:53.860 --> 0:9:58.40 Asher, Bradley - FS The Hal Rogers Parkway also runs along the northern edge of London.

0:9:58.850 --> 0:10:4.350 Asher, Bradley - FS London, KY, is home to the London District Office of the Daniel Boone National Forest.

0:10:5.140 --> 0:10:11.750 Asher, Bradley - FS The Daniel Boone National Forest was named after the famous American pioneer and frontiersman Daniel Boone.

0:10:12.760 --> 0:10:18.750 Asher, Bradley - FS Boone became a larger than life folk hero for his early exploration and settlement of Kentucky.

0:10:20.250 --> 0:10:26.20 Asher, Bradley - FS The London District Office is one of four districts that makes up the Daniel Boone National Forest.

0:10:27.250 --> 0:10:36.910 Asher, Bradley - FS Due to a major reconstruction of the US 25 corridor, which runs adjacent to the compound approximately 1.37 acres.

0:10:37.630 --> 0:10:47.890 Asher, Bradley - FS On the east side of the property will be conveyed to the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet for a new collector Rd that will connect to the reconstructed US 25.

0:10:49.830 --> 0:10:53.730 Asher, Bradley - FS The current office was constructed in the early 1970s.

0:10:57.790 --> 0:11:1.130 Asher, Bradley - FS Studies have been conducted to look at remodeling the complex.

0:11:1.880 --> 0:11:4.10 Asher, Bradley - FS But with the taking of the land by the state.

0:11:4.760 --> 0:11:9.920 Asher, Bradley - FS Along with five of the buildings, studies concluded that removal of the current facilities.

0:11:10.630 --> 0:11:13.300 Asher, Bradley - FS And starting with a clean slate is the preferred option.

0:11:14.220 --> 0:11:18.660 Asher, Bradley - FS As you enter the London Ranger District compound off of US 25.

0:11:19.290 --> 0:11:21.940 Asher, Bradley - FS You can see that it is an Oasis of trees.

0:11:23.480 --> 0:11:27.590 Asher, Bradley - FS The trees were planted by London district office staff many years ago.

0:11:28.490 --> 0:11:34.820 Asher, Bradley - FS It is understood that due to space constraints, many of the trees will need to be removed for construction of the new facilities.

0:11:37.430 --> 0:11:43.600 Asher, Bradley - FS As we progress up the drive to the right is the District Ranger Office and the associated parking.

0:12:10.200 --> 0:12:13.570 Asher, Bradley - FS As we continue along the drive when counter the warehouse.

0:12:14.280 --> 0:12:17.560 Asher, Bradley - FS Which supports all the field operations for the district.

0:12:39.720 --> 0:12:55.880 Asher, Bradley - FS The remaining 5 buildings on the compound which housed chemical paint and fuels, as well as fire and law enforcement operations, and the seedling cooler, will be taken and demolished as part of the US 25 reconstruction project.

0:15:15.960 --> 0:15:18.790 Asher, Bradley - FS Lee, you can prevent wildfires.

0:15:22.700 --> 0:15:25.430 Asher, Bradley - FS Alright, thanks for bearing with me there with my.

0:15:26.170 --> 0:15:35.310 Asher, Bradley - FS Cheesy video. Hope that helps you understand the compound. I'm gonna stop sharing now, and Steve's gonna bring up the PowerPoint again, and I'm gonna go over a couple more slides.

0:15:49.330 --> 0:16:19.280 Asher, Bradley - FS OK. Next slide, there's Steve. Thank you. OK. So this aerial view again shows the location of the site London Ranger District site, which would be reconstructed. It's adjacent to US 25 and it that's going to reconstruct it at some point. I want to emphasize that this could happen concurrently with or after our build out the successful team will be expected to work with Kate KYTC, the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet to.

0:16:19.700 --> 0:16:46.480 Asher, Bradley - FS Ensure a successful project KYT has indicated they will work with us and and the selected team to make sure that everything goes smoothly. I do want to know that there is an airport very close to this site. I don't think that's going to be an issue, but please be cognizant of that as you consider what type of facility you want to put on our site and also when you consider using cranes or things like that aside, there could be some high restrictions.

0:16:47.630 --> 0:16:49.330 Asher, Bradley - FS OK, next slide please, Steve.

0:16:53.100 --> 0:17:4.300 Asher, Bradley - FS OK. On this on the as depicted on this schematic, the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet will be constructing a new frontage Rd, tying the US 25 on the southeast side of our property.

0:17:5.400 --> 0:17:32.110 Asher, Bradley - FS That right away, convenience is still in the works right now. It's not not completed. I think it says 1.1 acres here, but I think it's closer to 1.31 point 4 acres. I can't remember it off the top of my head, so they will be responsible for demolishing the buildings in yellow. That could happen concurrent to this project as well. So there could be some some conflicts there that the team will have to deal with.

0:17:33.760 --> 0:18:4.390 Asher, Bradley - FS There were the successful team will be responsible for removal of infrastructure on the remaining parcel, which will be somewhere in the range of four acres. 4.6 acres is what we've got shown here. That's an estimate. A survey by the winning team went OK what we really have left to to get going. The blue line indicates work boundaries by kytc. It's our understanding and agreement with kytc that the entrances onto this frontage Rd can be adjusted.

0:18:4.790 --> 0:18:7.340 Asher, Bradley - FS Uh, according to whatever the final plan is.

0:18:11.460 --> 0:18:30.420 Asher, Bradley - FS You can see there's a fairly large wooded area left on on the property which which can be utilized for for this project, so they'll they'll be quite a bit of planning that has to be done to fit everything in here. So Steve, that's about what I've got here. Unless was in questions which we might do later. But thanks for your attention. Back to you, Steve.

0:18:36.880 --> 0:18:38.180 Alves, Steven - FS Right. So.

0:18:40.60 --> 0:18:50.870 Alves, Steven - FS Thank you very much for that. I thought the video was pretty good. It gives you a good idea of of the current situation where the the lay of the land is. So I thought it was well worth it.

0:18:51.900 --> 0:19:2.960 Alves, Steven - FS So what we're going to do now is we're going to go through a quick discussion of the phasing of the project and what we're looking for in each phase with the focus upon phase one.

0:19:6.160 --> 0:19:10.330 Alves, Steven - FS OK, phase one is a call for qualifications.

0:19:11.40 --> 0:19:11.710 Alves, Steven - FS So.

0:19:12.760 --> 0:19:15.710 Alves, Steven - FS This is, uh, focused upon.

0:19:18.420 --> 0:19:22.370 Alves, Steven - FS What you think makes you the best qualified to do the job.

0:19:23.690 --> 0:19:38.880 Alves, Steven - FS It involves non price criteria so we are not looking for a design or pricing in phase one, a bid guarantee bid bond is not required for phase one.

0:19:40.990 --> 0:19:50.720 Alves, Steven - FS Phase One is looking to find the three best qualified contractors to move on to phase two.

0:19:56.230 --> 0:20:2.180 Alves, Steven - FS So factors involved in phase one, we have a pre screen.

0:20:3.420 --> 0:20:8.900 Alves, Steven - FS Will go over the methodology and then we'll look at criterias one through 3.

0:20:12.840 --> 0:20:16.490 Alves, Steven - FS So our initial pre screening this is.

0:20:18.210 --> 0:20:22.490 Alves, Steven - FS Rated yes or no. You either are or you aren't.

0:20:23.270 --> 0:20:27.870 Alves, Steven - FS So we're looking for bonding capacity of of $8 million.

0:20:29.420 --> 0:20:32.230 Alves, Steven - FS And then your constructor safety record.

0:20:33.470 --> 0:20:36.320 Alves, Steven - FS We need to look at that as a pre qualifier.

0:20:45.610 --> 0:20:49.710 Alves, Steven - FS So for phase one are evaluation methodology.

0:20:50.400 --> 0:20:55.220 Alves, Steven - FS For criterias one and two we will be performing.

0:20:56.640 --> 0:21:2.510 Alves, Steven - FS A narrative based on strengths and weaknesses of the data that you submit.

0:21:3.640 --> 0:21:19.50 Alves, Steven - FS This is actually we we will not be just assigning a single word, you know, strong, significant strength, weakness. We will actually be doing a descriptive narrative of what we see within your submittal.

0:21:21.140 --> 0:21:35.790 Alves, Steven - FS Then we will provide an adjectival rating of of what we're looking at. So we have a written descriptive narrative, and then we have the actual rating that is provided for that criterion.

0:21:37.620 --> 0:21:56.340 Alves, Steven - FS 4 past performance. Again, we will be doing a descriptive narrative where we will actually go through and do a write up of what you've submitted and then we provide the adjectival rating and you can see they while the descriptive narratives.

0:21:57.120 --> 0:22:0.80 Alves, Steven - FS Are using the same definitions.

0:22:0.820 --> 0:22:20.90 Alves, Steven - FS Your rating system is different for criterias, one one and two are the same and then for three we go to whether or not your past performance projects you've submitted are relevant. Very relevant somewhat or they don't really have any relevancy to the project at hand.

0:22:26.340 --> 0:22:45.830 Alves, Steven - FS So what we're going to do? I'm gonna do a quick overview of the different criteria. Now, the reason this block is highlighted is in in yellow is this is a flag for me that I need to do an amendment to redirect where the page count is being referenced. This is actually section L, not section M.

0:22:47.670 --> 0:22:49.460 Alves, Steven - FS So for criteria one.

0:22:50.110 --> 0:23:1.820 Alves, Steven - FS We're gonna be looking at the preliminary management and technical approach. This is all contained within your section M that has been posted on sam.gov.

0:23:4.20 --> 0:23:19.780 Alves, Steven - FS So under project management, we'll be looking at things such as key personnel, qualifications, quality control, safety, project management software, how your staffing is gonna be done.

0:23:21.150 --> 0:23:24.60 Alves, Steven - FS We'll look at resumes of key personnel.

0:23:25.610 --> 0:23:33.830 Alves, Steven - FS What is your quality across quality control, approach plan and your safety plan and how are you gonna implement?

0:23:34.500 --> 0:23:38.590 Alves, Steven - FS Your your project and your capabilities and pregnant so.

0:23:39.820 --> 0:23:41.210 Alves, Steven - FS Technical approach.

0:23:43.100 --> 0:23:43.890 Alves, Steven - FS We'll look at.

0:23:47.520 --> 0:23:53.720 Alves, Steven - FS How you intend to provide a suitable design and technical solution and integrate.

0:23:54.500 --> 0:23:57.230 Alves, Steven - FS The government projects team into the delivery.

0:23:59.660 --> 0:24:6.10 Alves, Steven - FS Now I've truncated the substantiation of that. You need to submit.

0:24:7.370 --> 0:24:14.360 Alves, Steven - FS The SF 3:30 is the number one item that you are required to submit under criteria one.

0:24:15.760 --> 0:24:25.480 Alves, Steven - FS So again, rap please reference back to Section M and L4 complete submittal requirements cause it's not just an SF 3:30.

0:24:30.130 --> 0:24:43.850 Alves, Steven - FS Hey, for criteria too specialized experience again I've got a flag here that I need to reference you back to section L and that amendment will be coming out either today or on Monday.

0:24:45.880 --> 0:24:50.210 Alves, Steven - FS So some of our specialized experience that we'd like to look at is.

0:24:51.490 --> 0:24:57.710 Alves, Steven - FS Prior sustainable design and construction, a net zero or the green globe.

0:24:58.560 --> 0:25:1.650 Alves, Steven - FS And on site renewable energy generation.

0:25:3.730 --> 0:25:11.160 Alves, Steven - FS So your potential use of prior solar panels may be wind, maybe geothermal.

0:25:11.820 --> 0:25:12.150 Alves, Steven - FS Umm.

0:25:13.840 --> 0:25:21.190 Alves, Steven - FS Again, this is a design build and we're we're trying to leverage your experience in the field for.

0:25:22.380 --> 0:25:23.950 Alves, Steven - FS Innovative ideas?

0:25:25.870 --> 0:25:31.180 Alves, Steven - FS Your work with wood, including mass timber and alternative framing systems.

0:25:33.490 --> 0:25:36.140 Alves, Steven - FS So a lot of this goes back to.

0:25:36.740 --> 0:25:39.450 Alves, Steven - FS I'm bringing the outside in.

0:25:40.70 --> 0:25:52.400 Alves, Steven - FS I'm making your workplace more than just a a concrete building that you often see in in past constructions, so we're looking for innovation there.

0:25:54.750 --> 0:25:59.600 Alves, Steven - FS And prior design build experience by the constructor and designer.

0:26:0.960 --> 0:26:6.490 Alves, Steven - FS And we're gonna be looking at teams with documented experience.

0:26:8.870 --> 0:26:11.160 Alves, Steven - FS And the more recent and relevant.

0:26:12.600 --> 0:26:15.130 Alves, Steven - FS Would be look at looked at more favorably?

0:26:20.580 --> 0:26:22.370 Alves, Steven - FS Saw your past performance.

0:26:23.760 --> 0:26:35.70 Alves, Steven - FS This will be gathered up through a series of we'll look at your C Pars, your Acas, your past, performance questionnaires, there's even a.

0:26:36.80 --> 0:26:47.860 Alves, Steven - FS Part of the deliverable or the submittals in section M&L you'll see there's an experience questionnaire where you get to outlay out the projects that you've done.

0:26:49.870 --> 0:27:2.20 Alves, Steven - FS And we may take steps to contact your prior previous clients to see how those projects went or to obtain additional past performance questionnaire information.

0:27:5.560 --> 0:27:9.230 Alves, Steven - FS Sorry, I was worried about the dogs barking and the cat decided to walk on the computer.

0:27:15.940 --> 0:27:18.330 Alves, Steven - FS So our schedule for phase one.

0:27:19.490 --> 0:27:22.290 Alves, Steven - FS We've done our pre solicitation notice.

0:27:23.380 --> 0:27:31.490 Alves, Steven - FS And we've done our request for qualifications and we've posted a complete RFP for your review.

0:27:33.920 --> 0:27:38.40 Alves, Steven - FS So the phase one qualifications are due back.

0:27:38.760 --> 0:27:40.370 Alves, Steven - FS The 15th of September.

0:27:41.200 --> 0:27:46.680 Alves, Steven - FS Will then immediately convene the source selection evaluation board.

0:27:48.120 --> 0:27:59.130 Alves, Steven - FS And they will go through and provide a recommendation to the source selection authority, which is myself, as to which three firms should proceed to the phase two.

0:28:2.340 --> 0:28:18.320 Alves, Steven - FS So that is the end of the phase one slides now. I had a 10 minute break in there, but we seemed to be cruising along quicker than than previously planned. So what I'd like to do is let me see if I can.

0:28:18.800 --> 0:28:23.670 Alves, Steven - FS Uh, unmute everybody. I'm not sure how I can do that here.

0:28:25.810 --> 0:28:30.840 Alves, Steven - FS And if there's questions, we can try to feel them at this point. So let me.

0:28:38.570 --> 0:28:38.880 Alves, Steven - FS Oops.

0:28:51.110 --> 0:28:51.520 Don Vanbogaert Wow.

0:28:58.660 --> 0:28:59.710 Don Vanbogaert Hello, can you hear me?

0:29:5.860 --> 0:29:6.410 Don Vanbogaert Hello.

0:29:1.320 --> 0:29:14.590 Alves, Steven - FS OK. Yes, I guess it's auto. It's it's letting go of the of the control button. So yes, Sir, if you have a question, please go ahead and we'll try to answer it for you. In regards to phase one or the site.

0:29:16.980 --> 0:29:17.460 Don Vanbogaert

OK.

0:29:16.860 --> 0:29:18.720 Scott Matheny Yeah, this is. Ohh go ahead.

0:29:21.380 --> 0:29:24.780 Don Vanbogaert Uh, and that's what Don van Bogaert. I didn't raise my hand, but.

0:29:26.50 --> 0:29:28.190 Don Vanbogaert I was just curious. Uh?

0:29:29.210 --> 0:29:35.960 Don Vanbogaert You know, there are a number for private sector and other clients that don't utilize C pars.

0:29:36.730 --> 0:29:40.240 Don Vanbogaert Will the past performance questionnaire suffice?

0:29:42.650 --> 0:29:59.200 Alves, Steven - FS In the in the section, I think it's section L it says if you don't have like a AC parse, we'll accept the past performance questionnaire and I thought we had something else on there. I'd have to go back and read it. But we did make provisions for.

0:30:0.400 --> 0:30:4.10 Alves, Steven - FS Non non CPC par ratings to be included.

0:30:4.340 --> 0:30:7.620 Don Vanbogaert And is there a specific questionnaire you want us to use?

0:30:8.530 --> 0:30:11.810 Alves, Steven - FS Uh, the questionnaire was attached.

0:30:12.510 --> 0:30:13.110 Don Vanbogaert

OK.

0:30:12.970 --> 0:30:15.210 Alves, Steven - FS As as one of the attachments to the package.

0:30:14.840 --> 0:30:16.490 Don Vanbogaert OK, alright, thank you.

0:30:22.320 --> 0:30:25.250 Scott Matheny Yeah, this is a Scott Matheny with simpler tech.

0:30:25.330 --> 0:30:26.810 Scott Matheny Yeah, but.

0:30:27.580 --> 0:30:44.610 Scott Matheny I'm looking at the the program for this and you've got a 9500 square foot admin space roughly projected and you've got a, you know, your warehouse at 4500 square feet plus the shelter plus the site work plus the permitting.

0:30:46.460 --> 0:30:52.550 Scott Matheny You know, obviously Davis Bacon act wages with the target ceiling of 5.4 million.

0:30:54.130 --> 0:30:59.240 Scott Matheny Is that a hard ceiling? Because that doesn't seem like it's gonna be.

0:31:0.670 --> 0:31:9.40 Scott Matheny Feasible to get get the full project done at that amount and I guess my follow up to that is.

0:31:10.980 --> 0:31:27.460 Scott Matheny You know, as a former employee on the boom and one of the engineers over there, I know the warehouse space is probably critical and so is the shelter space. I mean, is there any thought about option in those to take them out if you exceed that $5.4 million threshold?

0:31:28.990 --> 0:31:32.530 Alves, Steven - FS Well, the to answer the question and.

0:31:33.380 --> 0:31:45.10 Alves, Steven - FS Like whether or not we can option and all that the the 5.4 ceiling right now is a hard ceiling. We there there is no other funding other than that as of today.

0:31:46.380 --> 0:32:4.780 Alves, Steven - FS Within the the package, you'll notice there's an opportunity for betterments, so we have the base standard requirements, and then you have the option of of putting on betterments to approach that 5.4 million depending upon what you're.

0:32:6.390 --> 0:32:11.720 Alves, Steven - FS Base value R so that doesn't come up until phase two.

0:32:13.510 --> 0:32:16.920 Alves, Steven - FS But as of right now, we didn't set it up.

0:32:18.180 --> 0:32:23.950 Alves, Steven - FS To where buildings and specific activities were included as optional line items.

0:32:24.620 --> 0:32:32.770 Alves, Steven - FS Right now it's a 5.4 million silion ceiling and then whether or not you can provide any betterments beyond the minimum.

0:32:47.560 --> 0:32:47.910 Alves, Steven - FS It.

0:32:35.10 --> 0:32:48.250 Scott Matheny OK. And then there was mention in one of the draft documents and it may have been taken out, but I think there were some talk about the Grove site needing a warehouse. Is that completely out of this scope at this point?

0:32:48.990 --> 0:32:55.410 Alves, Steven - FS Yes, it is removed and that'll be on the amendment that goes out either this afternoon or Monday.

0:32:56.930 --> 0:32:58.40 Scott Matheny OK, alright, thank you.

0:33:3.470 --> 0:33:4.800 Alves, Steven - FS Uh, yes. Next question.

0:33:16.470 --> 0:33:27.760 Alves, Steven - FS OK. Well, if we if we don't have any other questions, I'd say we go ahead and press on unless there's no objections.

0:33:35.880 --> 0:33:38.660 Alves, Steven - FS OK. We will go ahead and press on.

0:33:43.550 --> 0:33:48.460 Alves, Steven - FS So phase two, again, this is for the three firms.

0:33:49.0 --> 0:33:52.110 Alves, Steven - FS Uh evaluated as best qualified.

0:33:52.970 --> 0:33:56.350 Alves, Steven - FS So what we will do is as soon as that decision is made.

0:33:57.280 --> 0:34:7.900 Alves, Steven - FS We will issue an amendment that that establishes the delivery dates and activities for phase two. So what you see in some of the slide show.

0:34:9.380 --> 0:34:14.30 Alves, Steven - FS One or two of these dates are slightly different than the actual RFP that's been posted.

0:34:15.370 --> 0:34:22.770 Alves, Steven - FS So once we get to phase two, this timeline will be reestablished with firm dates.

0:34:24.780 --> 0:34:29.540 Alves, Steven - FS But some of the activities you'll see again will issue the amendment.

0:34:30.510 --> 0:34:34.0 Alves, Steven - FS The three firms will come out and do a site visit.

0:34:36.470 --> 0:34:40.120 Alves, Steven - FS Their proposal will be due to the USDA.

0:34:41.850 --> 0:34:45.180 Alves, Steven - FS Will convene the source selection evaluation board.

0:34:45.900 --> 0:34:56.290 Alves, Steven - FS And at this point in time, the individual members on the board will be meeting and they will perform an evaluation on your proposal.

0:34:58.300 --> 0:35:5.730 Alves, Steven - FS They will write down any questions that they have in which clarifications are needed from your submittal.

0:35:7.210 --> 0:35:9.260 Alves, Steven - FS We will provide those to you.

0:35:11.550 --> 0:35:19.640 Alves, Steven - FS Then we will schedule you a briefing to go through a virtual presentation of your proposal.

0:35:22.570 --> 0:35:27.700 Alves, Steven - FS The board will remeet. They'll meet again. They'll go over your briefing.

0:35:28.470 --> 0:35:46.760 Alves, Steven - FS And they will come. They will come to a consensus birth consensus on your proposal. They will make that recommendation to the source selection authority. And then we expect final award sometime around the first week of December on the current schedule.

0:35:53.540 --> 0:36:0.140 Alves, Steven - FS So phase two overview, again, we're looking the methodology for best value.

0:36:0.800 --> 0:36:3.330 Alves, Steven - FS The contract ceiling limitation.

0:36:4.310 --> 0:36:9.250 Alves, Steven - FS And this one actually has a stipend for two for the two non selectees.

0:36:11.30 --> 0:36:14.630 Alves, Steven - FS And then I'll hit real quickly on the technical references we have.

0:36:18.610 --> 0:36:20.740 Alves, Steven - FS So the phase two proposal.

0:36:21.360 --> 0:36:29.50 Alves, Steven - FS Umm this is where you actually bring in the the costs to do it and your design.

0:36:30.80 --> 0:36:37.350 Alves, Steven - FS So is it gonna be a full-fledged design? No. But it's gonna be a concept of how you're gonna execute the program.

0:36:38.390 --> 0:36:52.160 Alves, Steven - FS It'll include phasing and timelines. Your proposed construction methods and, as noted before, right now it has a 5.4 million design and construction ceiling limit.

0:36:56.350 --> 0:37:8.240 Alves, Steven - FS The pre proposal conference where you go out onto the site is a four hour on site and then the presentation is 90 minutes.

0:37:12.340 --> 0:37:13.710 Alves, Steven - FS So we're looking at.

0:37:15.710 --> 0:37:25.0 Alves, Steven - FS Best value? So we're looking at which one provides the best technical and program management benefits to the government.

0:37:26.50 --> 0:37:28.490 Alves, Steven - FS What is most Advent advantageous?

0:37:32.280 --> 0:37:35.500 Alves, Steven - FS And then the final, we may reject all or some?

0:37:36.510 --> 0:37:40.370 Alves, Steven - FS Based on what we see is in the best interest of the government.

0:37:41.770 --> 0:37:42.360 Alves, Steven - FS So.

0:37:43.900 --> 0:37:50.930 Alves, Steven - FS The two non selectees right now we do have funding available for a stipends to be paid out to them.

0:37:51.760 --> 0:37:57.710 Alves, Steven - FS And the company winning the contract would not receive a stipend.

0:38:2.820 --> 0:38:5.310 Scott Matheny What's the basis of that stipend amount?

0:38:6.60 --> 0:38:7.330 Scott Matheny Thing is that a set amount.

0:38:8.490 --> 0:38:10.980 Alves, Steven - FS Right now the.

0:38:12.840 --> 0:38:17.650 Alves, Steven - FS The the set amount is up to $25,000.

0:38:19.660 --> 0:38:22.30 Alves, Steven - FS Uh, per non celebrity?

0:38:24.840 --> 0:38:25.260 Scott Matheny Thank you.

0:38:29.850 --> 0:38:42.990 Alves, Steven - FS OK, so I wanted to include a quick section on the technical overview for the for the data that's been attached within the sit here. Oops, I'm going the wrong way here.

0:38:44.610 --> 0:39:0.370 Alves, Steven - FS That's attached within the RFP. So at the very bottom, you'll see a reference documents. So for example, the Chattanooga or Chattooga River Works Center or the Croatan Admin office.

0:39:1.560 --> 0:39:3.10 Alves, Steven - FS These are provided.

0:39:4.420 --> 0:39:14.290 Alves, Steven - FS So it may help you focus upon your SF 3:30 and other documents for phase one. It may influence how you put that package together.

0:39:16.120 --> 0:39:22.910 Alves, Steven - FS So I've got it broken down and this is the same way in which they appear on the.

0:39:23.610 --> 0:39:27.80 Alves, Steven - FS Section J of the solicitation document.

0:39:28.370 --> 0:39:39.940 Alves, Steven - FS So you have the standard guidance documents. Some of these are specific to region 8, so don't assume that it's a standard USDA.

0:39:41.460 --> 0:39:47.590 Alves, Steven - FS So if you're going to use these, please look at them because again, some of them are specific to Southern region.

0:39:52.40 --> 0:40:3.140 Alves, Steven - FS And we have a space and functional requirements documents that you may need for, especially for phase two, but you might want to look at those for phase one.

0:40:8.140 --> 0:40:11.560 Alves, Steven - FS We also have the existing site documents.

0:40:16.350 --> 0:40:19.510 Alves, Steven - FS And for reference, we have a.

0:40:20.880 --> 0:40:24.360 Alves, Steven - FS Uh, three other offices that have.

0:40:25.260 --> 0:40:26.740 Alves, Steven - FS A similar setup.

0:40:28.770 --> 0:40:33.330 Alves, Steven - FS So you might be able to look at those and gain.

0:40:33.510 --> 0:40:37.420 Alves, Steven - FS Uh, that design information design references.

0:40:38.790 --> 0:40:44.140 Alves, Steven - FS Inspiration for your uh, particular design for London?

0:40:52.330 --> 0:40:55.340 Alves, Steven - FS OK. I mean, we kind of flew through this, so.

0:40:57.900 --> 0:40:58.670 Alves, Steven - FS Have we?

0:40:59.490 --> 0:41:4.80 Alves, Steven - FS Generated any more questions after going through phase two very quickly.

0:41:9.290 --> 0:41:13.800 Don Vanbogaert This is Tom Van Bogart again. Can you show that last side just briefly?

0:41:19.650 --> 0:41:20.210 Don Vanbogaert Thank you.

0:41:24.290 --> 0:41:33.650 Alves, Steven - FS And some of these facilities, you can actually, you know you can go on Google and do Rd searches Rd views and overhead views of them.

0:41:52.940 --> 0:41:58.70 Alves, Steven - FS OK. Well, let me go ahead and stop sharing my screen.

0:42:0.480 --> 0:42:1.860 Alves, Steven - FS Come back to the camera here.

0:42:6.100 --> 0:42:20.40 Scott Matheny They stay one like I guess, and it may just be where I haven't close enough yet. But what were the standards for relevant experience for your past performance as far as magnitude of project?

0:42:21.360 --> 0:42:25.770 Alves, Steven - FS Let me let me pull up, actually, I'll pull up the.

0:42:27.360 --> 0:42:29.940 Alves, Steven - FS Let's see here and I will share my screen again.

0:42:36.360 --> 0:42:40.770 Alves, Steven - FS So I always try to refer back to the actual source documents for you here.

0:42:49.360 --> 0:42:56.160 Alves, Steven - FS So this is this is section L where it talks about phase one and you're submittals.

0:42:58.320 --> 0:43:0.10 Alves, Steven - FS So section M.

0:43:3.90 --> 0:43:4.720 Alves, Steven - FS Gives you a more in depth.

0:43:5.690 --> 0:43:8.60 Alves, Steven - FS So let's go to pass performance here.

0:43:18.260 --> 0:43:23.690 Alves, Steven - FS So here is what we're supposed to say now, a substantiation this is.

0:43:26.810 --> 0:43:28.420 Alves, Steven - FS Where it definitely states so.

0:43:29.520 --> 0:43:31.480 Alves, Steven - FS I thought we had.

0:43:41.560 --> 0:43:43.770 Alves, Steven - FS In section M it actually doesn't give.

0:43:44.540 --> 0:43:46.540 Alves, Steven - FS I thought we had a. Let's see.

0:43:47.940 --> 0:43:49.610 Alves, Steven - FS Designs factors.

0:44:0.160 --> 0:44:0.620 Alves, Steven - FS I'm not.

0:44:2.780 --> 0:44:3.150 Alves, Steven - FS It.

0:44:6.840 --> 0:44:7.300 Alves, Steven - FS It.

0:44:0.110 --> 0:44:8.410 Scott Matheny Yeah, I guess typically what we see is something like, you know, projects must be over a certain magnitude design build or bid build kind of thing.

0:44:9.160 --> 0:44:22.440 Alves, Steven - FS Yeah. And like I said, I'm looking at it and I'm going normally we have, you know, your passport performance. Usually it's three to five years and within the same dollar threshold as comparable.

0:44:23.230 --> 0:44:27.320 Alves, Steven - FS I'm not seeing it on here, so unless we amend it right now.

0:44:30.540 --> 0:44:31.190 Alves, Steven - FS I'll mark that.

0:44:30.460 --> 0:44:36.880 Scott Matheny Is it in your evacuation of strengths? Maybe. Like if some I've seen it there in your table.

0:44:38.260 --> 0:44:41.710 Scott Matheny Before where they say you know you're strong if they're.

0:44:50.550 --> 0:44:51.160 Alves, Steven - FS Let me.

0:44:42.370 --> 0:44:52.860 Scott Matheny But then so many years and such a value, extra extra consideration for design build projects, I don't know. I just hadn't seen it yet. It may be in there, but.

0:44:53.500 --> 0:44:57.150 Alves, Steven - FS Actually it's it's a very good question because let me look.

0:44:58.430 --> 0:45:1.390 Don Vanbogaert Steve, it does say somewhere on there seven years.

0:44:59.830 --> 0:45:3.220 Alves, Steven - FS Is it? Is it in? It might be section C.

0:45:8.580 --> 0:45:18.110 Don Vanbogaert It does say projects within the last seven years, but I'm like the other gentleman. It doesn't say value or project magnitude.

0:45:18.200 --> 0:45:26.480 Alves, Steven - FS Right. I know like in the specialized experience that talks about the number of projects within the last within the time period.

0:45:28.330 --> 0:45:32.750 Alves, Steven - FS But as far as I I don't believe we have an order of magnitude.

0:45:35.90 --> 0:45:40.660 Don Vanbogaert Steve, what you just showed said three years, but somewhere else, it says within the last seven years.

0:45:42.60 --> 0:45:46.710 Scott Matheny You get extra preference for three years, but above that it says seven years.

0:45:48.50 --> 0:45:54.250 Scott Matheny But I think magnitude would be important to include since you know you don't want people probably presenting.

0:45:54.920 --> 0:45:56.620 Scott Matheny Type $1,000,000 projects.

0:46:8.320 --> 0:46:11.790 Alves, Steven - FS I'm writing it down as a potential action item.

0:46:18.930 --> 0:46:19.460 Alves, Steven - FS

OK.

0:46:23.120 --> 0:46:30.650 Alves, Steven - FS Yeah, right here on the specialized, it says last seven years of issuance preference given to last uh prior 3.

0:46:34.670 --> 0:46:42.220 Alves, Steven - FS But I'm I'm fairly confident we have nothing on there and regards to past performance order of magnitude. So we'll take a look at that.

0:46:45.40 --> 0:47:5.280 Roland, Laura If I might offer a different perspective on the order of magnitude, I do see the value, but I also think there's a possibility for offers to put together an overall package of experience which may indicate you know a particular warehouse is one of their projects in that project is a lower order of magnitude, just to demonstrate that they can do all of the building types.

0:47:5.950 --> 0:47:10.380 Roland, Laura So that's just a different perspective on it from a contractors.

0:47:11.450 --> 0:47:11.880 Roland, Laura Where we.

0:47:15.400 --> 0:47:19.450 Don Vanbogaert I see your point too. Uh, we've seen that on other projects where.

0:47:20.220 --> 0:47:22.700 Don Vanbogaert Especially when you're talking about a compound.

0:47:23.520 --> 0:47:31.710 Don Vanbogaert Individual buildings order magnitude may be just as valuable as the overall project magnitude.

0:47:38.710 --> 0:47:50.510 Scott Matheny Yeah, I have seen some RFP's where they they may say two projects with range of ** and one project with range of X stacks. I mean I've seen it a bunch of different ways obviously, but.

0:47:53.600 --> 0:47:55.150 Scott Matheny That might be something to consider.

0:47:59.820 --> 0:48:2.920 Don Vanbogaert Could you spell out that India approach section?

0:48:4.20 --> 0:48:9.800 Don Vanbogaert Our past, the general information the contractor could simply list.

0:48:10.650 --> 0:48:15.180 Don Vanbogaert Projects of the larger magnitude just to demonstrate capacity.

0:48:16.200 --> 0:48:21.450 Don Vanbogaert But then relevant projects may be more specific about building types.

0:48:34.700 --> 0:48:45.320 Alves, Steven - FS OK, So what I've done is I've taken that down as a potential action item, or at least we're gonna meet as a team and give it serious consideration.

0:48:51.530 --> 0:48:54.170 Roland, Laura I did have a question about the past performance questionnaires.

0:48:55.170 --> 0:48:59.780 Roland, Laura I saw a note come through the chat that said that you were requesting that we use the.

0:49:1.370 --> 0:49:17.860 Roland, Laura You're a particular version of the the PPQ's and that we should not incorporate for by reference any previously obtained PPQ. But if we are able to include a hard copy PPQ that may be on a different form than your PPQ.

0:49:18.540 --> 0:49:28.0 Roland, Laura Umm for a project that is highly relevant, but maybe the point of contact is no longer available, will that be accepted as long as the questions are substantially the same?

0:49:33.800 --> 0:49:42.550 Alves, Steven - FS My initial thought is, UM, generally you know, as long as it's conveying the same information, it will be accepted.

0:49:44.450 --> 0:49:47.370 Alves, Steven - FS So again, I'll take that as a.

0:49:50.80 --> 0:49:50.250 Roland, Laura Yeah.

0:49:49.800 --> 0:49:53.450 Alves, Steven - FS And amendment issue that you know we'll we'll issue a clarification.

0:49:54.120 --> 0:49:59.240 Roland, Laura I mean, this is only specific to if we can actually include the copy. We understand that they can't just be referenced.

0:50:3.300 --> 0:50:3.640 Alves, Steven - FS

OK.

0:50:3.270 --> 0:50:19.210 Kathy Smith Just from a quick review, it appears the two forms are are almost identical, and sometimes it is difficult to get clients to fill out these forms on a repeated basis, so it is very helpful if we can utilize forms we already have on file.

0:50:21.780 --> 0:50:39.430 Tara Masters I also would like to echo what these ladies just said with it being fourth quarter spend down with people moving from agency to agency, it's very, very difficult to get these PPQ forms refilled out time after time.

0:50:40.510 --> 0:51:1.180 Tara Masters Especially when your teams bidding, you know, several opportunities concurrently, we've had a heck of a time trying to get even one PPQ form back from our agencies that we've done work with just because from a multitude of reasons. So if you could please consider changing that.

0:51:1.760 --> 0:51:2.350 Alves, Steven - FS

OK.

0:51:3.440 --> 0:51:15.510 Scott Matheny But you're allowing sea pars in lieu of PBQ's, right? I mean, if if you've if it's a NAV fact, PPQ, you ought to have C parse. If it's over $750,000, unless I'm.

0:51:16.240 --> 0:51:18.270 Scott Matheny Is that correct? That's keep ours can be.

0:51:16.770 --> 0:51:28.670 Alves, Steven - FS Put put it this way, you should, but the reality is, is that C pars don't always necessarily coincide with a PPQ.

0:51:30.840 --> 0:51:31.230 Alves, Steven - FS Umm.

0:51:30.820 --> 0:51:37.530 Kathy Smith In addition to that, design firms do not get us the parts for design build projects, only the contractor.

0:51:41.360 --> 0:51:50.470 Ben Robertson Yeah. Yeah, I was gonna say the same thing. It's it's only for the prime. So, you know, in this particular case, design firms do not.

0:51:53.130 --> 0:52:2.990 Ben Robertson Also, I was going to say you guys did a great job assembling this and presenting this. I I personally really appreciate the efforts that you all put into this has been Robertson was the MTA.

0:52:5.610 --> 0:52:17.520 Alves, Steven - FS Well, put it this way. You guys are giving us some great, great feedback on things that we know we need to take into consideration moving forward. So it's better to catch it now than later on.

0:52:19.410 --> 0:52:22.450 Alves, Steven - FS So I'll also take a note on.

0:52:27.930 --> 0:52:32.690 Alves, Steven - FS Design, build construction, AC pars for design.

0:52:45.870 --> 0:52:46.120 Alves, Steven - FS No.

0:52:44.570 --> 0:52:49.520 Ben Robertson So as long as you continue to allow the PBQ's that I mean that'll be fine.

0:52:50.810 --> 0:52:58.210 Ben Robertson Because we can generally get, especially if you allow us to use PPQ that we've already gotten filled out, I think that would help address the situation.

0:53:5.90 --> 0:53:11.820 Alves, Steven - FS I can definitely, like I said, what I'll do is I'll sit down with the acquisition team and we'll.

0:53:12.560 --> 0:53:26.730 Alves, Steven - FS We'll discuss these things and see what we want to do on them, and we'll either we'll issue an amendment with the clarification or we'll we'll look at how we can change in corporate or you know, make that more effective for everybody.

0:53:32.660 --> 0:53:36.170 Alves, Steven - FS OK. Do we have any other questions so far?

0:53:44.460 --> 0:53:55.520 Alves, Steven - FS OK. Well, I thank you very much. Like I said, we're gonna try to have the transcript and the video posted. I'm gonna try to do it this afternoon.

0:53:56.800 --> 0:53:57.690 Alves, Steven - FS The amendment.

0:53:59.310 --> 0:54:7.380 Alves, Steven - FS Because of the good questions may take me through Monday afternoon and to get together, so actually they're they're they were very good feedback questions.

0:54:9.970 --> 0:54:13.620 Alves, Steven - FS So please keep watching sam.gov and.

0:54:14.320 --> 0:54:30.90 Alves, Steven - FS I'll continue to use the mass spam e-mail just to let you know what I did for the mass notice in addition to sam.gov is I sent out an e-mail to companies that had the naks code.

0:54:30.760 --> 0:54:41.590 Alves, Steven - FS Listed in their dynamic small business search under the SBA. So that's how I sent out that mass spam e-mail. So I'll continue to send out.
