GENERAL CONDITIONS

GENERAL CONDITIONS

1. GENERAL INTENT

The Government intends to evaluate offers and award a contract without discussions (except clarifications, as described in FAR 15.306(a)). Therefore, your initial offer should contain your best terms from a price and technical standpoint. The Government reserves the right to conduct discussions in the Contracting Officer may limit the number of proposals in the competitive range to the greatest number that will permit an efficient competition, among the most highly rated proposals. Information regarding the source selection process, content of proposals, evaluation of proposals, and best value source selection evaluation criteria to be used is located in Section 00 21 16 Instructions to Proposers.

2. BASIS FOR AWARD

The Government intends to evaluate proposals and award a contract without discussions with Offerors (except clarifications as described in FAR 15.306(a)). The Government reserves the right to conduct discussions if the Contracting Officer later determines them to be necessary. In addition, if the Contracting Officer determines that the number of proposals that would otherwise be in the competitive range exceeds the number at which an efficient competition can be conducted, the Contracting Officer may limit the number of proposals in the competitive range to the greatest number that will permit an efficient competition among the most highly rated proposals.

The Lowest Price Technically Acceptable process is appropriate for this acquisition. The best value is expected to result from selection of the technically acceptable proposal with the lowest evaluated price. Proposals will be evaluated in the following order:

a. Evaluated for completeness, per responsiveness to the RFP;

b. Ranked in price order (coefficient totals), from lowest to highest;

c. Evaluated against the criteria, starting with the lowest priced proposal;

d. This process will be repeated until the first Technically Acceptable proposal is reached. That

Offer will be selected for award;

e. No other Offers will be evaluated after identification of the Lowest Priced Technically

Acceptable Offer.

An overall non-price factors/subfactors rating must be at least “ACCEPTABLE” in order to be eligible for award.

An “UNACCEPTABLE” rating in any factor/subfactor results in the overall non-price factors proposal being rated “UNACCEPTABLE” unless corrected through discussions. An overall non-price factors rating of “UNACCEPTABLE” makes a proposal ineligible for award.

The Government reserves the right to eliminate from consideration for award any or all offers at any time prior to award of the contract; to negotiate with Offerors in the competitive range; and to award the contract to the Offeror submitting the lowest priced, technically acceptable offer.

The Superintendent is included in the Contractor’s coefficient and will not be compensated separately unless directed by the KO.

*Consult with the local construction office to determine the ability for the Superintendent to perform multiple roles on the specific TO based on the hazards of the project, job complexity, size, and any other pertinent factors.

7. Site Safety and Health Officer (SSHO): Provide an SSHO that meets the requirements of EM 385-1-1 Section

1. The SSHO must ensure that the requirements of 29 CFR 1926.16 are met for the project. Provide a Safety oversight team that includes a minimum of one person at each project site to function as the SSHO. The SSHO or an equally-qualified Alternate SSHO must be at the work site at all times to implement and administer the Contractor’s safety program and Government-accepted Accident Prevention Plan. The SSHO and Alternate SSHO must have the required training, experience, and qualifications in accordance with EM 385-1-1 Section 01.A.17, and all associated sub-paragraphs. If the SSHO is off-site for a period longer than 24 hours, an equally-qualified alternate SSHO must be provided and must fulfill the same roles and responsibilities as the primary SSHO. When the SSHO is temporarily (up to 24 hours) off-site, a Designated Representative (DR), as identified in the Activity Hazard

Analysis (AHA) may be used in lieu of an Alternate SSHO, and must be on the project site at all times when work is being performed. Note that the DR is a collateral duty safety position, with safety duties in addition to their full time occupation. The Contractor shall provide a detailed resume of the proposed SSHO for review and approval by the KO. The SSHO should hold certificates for OSHA 30, EM 385-1-1 Construction Safety Hazard Awareness for Contractors and current 1st Aid/CPR/AED training.

The SSHO is included in the Contractor’s coefficient and will not be compensated separately unless directed by the KO.

*Consult with the local construction office to determine the ability for the SSHO to perform multiple roles on the specific TO based on the hazards of the project, job complexity, size, and any other pertinent factors.

8. Quality Control Manager (QCM): The Contractor shall provide a competent QCM at the work site to implement and manage the QC program. The QCM is the manager of all QC activities. The QCM needs at least five

(5) years of construction experience. The QCM will need to complete the Construction Quality Management for Contractors Class (CQM-C). This course must be taken and the final test must be passed by any person aspiring to be the QCM or alternate. The QCM is included in the Contractor’s coefficient and will not be compensated separately unless directed by the KO.

*Consult with the local construction office to determine the ability for the assigned QCM to perform multiple roles on the specific TO based on the hazards of the project, job complexity, size, and any other pertinent factors.

9. Minimum Supervision / Additional Oversight Directed by the Government: The Government recognizes that in order for the Contractor to most efficiently manage TOs, the Contractor will typically request to provide the minimum amount of supervision required. Depending on the complexity/location/value/volume of the TO(s), and/or the existing workload of the Contractor’s staff, the Government will decide at the time of TO negotiations on the appropriate supervision for a specific TO. The Government may allow for a single individual to perform multiple roles (Superintendent, SSHO, QC) on multiple TO’s at multiple sites. A single individual will not be allowed to perform an unreasonable number of roles at multiple sites and/or for multiple TOs. Alternatively, the Government may require additional oversight (distinct individuals performing distinct roles) on a specific TO. The costs for SSHO, QCM, and Superintendent shall be included in the Contractor’s proposal and negotiated for each

TO.

10. Specifications, Codes and Standards: The current DOD Unified Facilities Guide Specifications (UFGS) consisting of Divisions 01 through 48 of specifications in the Construction Specifications Institute’s (CSI) Master format are incorporated by reference into this solicitation.
