I. Project Information

I.A. Project Summary

This indefinite delivery indefinite quantity (IDIQ) multiple award term contract is to provide general construction services. The applicable NAICS code is 236220 (Commercial and Institutional Building Construction) and the Small Business Size Standard is $39.5 Million.

Individual task orders to be placed under this contract will range in value from $2,000 to $50,000, however there may be individual orders with lower or higher costs placed against this contract. The contract term will be for one (1) base year with four (4), one-year options. The aggregate maximum order limitation (MOL) shall be $4 million for the entire duration of all contracts awarded as a result of this solicitation. In other words, there is no single MOL per contractor or a single MOL per year, other than the MOL of the entire contract.

Services under this contract will include general repair and alteration services to Government-owned and leased facilities as identified in the solicitation. Projects will be evaluated separately on a task order basis and offerors may be required to submit additional information pertaining to their ability to successfully perform these projects as necessary and required.

The geographic area of this work includes:

- Pennsylvania: Counties of Philadelphia, Delaware, Chester, Montgomery and Bucks;

- New Jersey: Counties of Atlantic, Burlington, Camden, Cape May, Cumberland, Gloucester, Hunterdon, Mercer, Ocean, Salem, Somerset, Sussex, and Warren;

- Delaware (entire state): Counties of Kent, New Castle and Sussex

Additional work may be negotiated in surrounding counties.

The contract will include by reference the most current version of the Facilities Construction Costs Book with RSMeans Data (referenced hereafter as “RSMeans Book”). The Government intends to utilize the RS Means Line Items in connection with the awardees RS means Locality Coefficient (referenced hereafter as “Locality Bid Factor”) to award future task orders. The Bid Factor shall apply to the entirety of the RSMeans Line Items.

After award(s) are executed, the Government intends to define RSMeans pricing with each awardee for commonly used line items for the Philadelphia and Delaware Valley Field Offices (referenced hereafter as “Definitized RSMeans Line Item Pricing”). Definitized RSMeans Line Item Pricing will be used to streamline the Request for Proposal process at the task order Level.

It is the Government's intent to receive updated Definitized RSMeans Line Item Pricing annually from each awardee prior to exercising an option period.

In addition, the Government may elect to utilize Lump Sum Competitive Proposals. Instructions shall be provided to awardees prior the issuance of any request for proposal (at the task order level) that will use Lump Sum Competitive Proposals.

Document: C101-SB-GC/OCTOBER 2021

The two award methods [RSMeans Line Items and Lump Sum Competitive Proposals] shall not be used simultaneously on any future task order. The solicitation at the task order level will clearly define which method will be utilized.

The Bid Factor(s) is the maximum coefficient (i.e. multiplying factor) that awardees may apply on future task orders. However, an offeror may elect to provide a discount at the task order level for a competitive advantage. When using the Bid Factor no other markups may be applied. The Bid Factor shall be utilized through the base period and all option periods (i.e. the potential total five-year Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) Contract).

I.B. The Contract

The Contract consists of the SF1442, the Agreement, the Statement of Work, Specifications, Drawings, Exhibits, Amendments, Modifications, and other Attachments identified herein (collectively, the Contract Documents).

2. The Contractor is required to bill the ordering agency in accordance with the billing instructions furnished on the ordering agency's delivery order. The ordering agency is responsible for timely payment and for resolving any billing problems in regard to orders they place. * Normally, a single payment for all work performed for each task order will be made upon formal inspection and acceptance. However, the Contractor is entitled to monthly payment as the work proceeds. Consequently, where the time for completion of the work to be performed exceeds one month or when unanticipated delays occur, a progress payment to the Contractor may be issued.

(6) Safeguarding and Dissemination of Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) Building Information

This clause applies to all recipients of CUI building information (which falls within the CUI Physical Security category), including offerors, bidders, awardees, contractors, subcontractors, lessors, suppliers and manufacturers.

Marking CUI. Contractors must submit any contractor-generated documents that contain building information to GSA for review and identification of any CUI building information that may be included. In addition, any documents GSA identifies as containing CUI building information must be marked in accordance with the Order and the Marking Controlled Unclassified Information Handbook (the current version may be found at https://www.archives.gov/files/cui/20161206-cui-marking-handbook-v1-1.pdf) before the original or any copies are disseminated to any other parties. If CUI content is identified, the CO may direct the contractor, as specified elsewhere in this contract, to imprint or affix CUI document markings (CUI) to the original documents and all copies, before any dissemination, or authorized GSA employees may mark the documents.

1. Authorized recipients.

a. Building information designated as CUI must be protected with access strictly controlled and limited to those individuals having a Lawful Government Purpose to access such information, as defined in 32 C.F.R. § 2002.4(bb). Those with such a Lawful Government Purpose may include

Document: C101-SB-GC/OCTOBER 2021 (The Agreement) http://www.finance.gsa.gov/ http://www.gsa.gov/portal/category/107203 http://www.fedidcard.gov/centerlist.aspx https://www.archives.gov/files/cui/20161206-cui-marking-handbook-v1-1.pdf

Federal, state and local government entities, and non-governmental entities engaged in the conduct of business on behalf of or with GSA. Non-governmental entities may include architects, engineers, consultants, contractors, subcontractors, suppliers, utilities, and others submitting an offer or bid to GSA, or performing work under a GSA contract or subcontract.

Recipient contractors must be registered as “active” in the System for Award Management (SAM) database at www.sam.gov, and have a Lawful Government Purpose to access such information. If a subcontractor is not registered in the SAM database and has a Lawful Government Purpose to possess CUI building information in furtherance of the contract, the subcontractor must provide to the contractor its DUNS number or its tax ID number and a copy of its business license. The contractor must keep this information related to the subcontractor for the duration of the contract and subcontract.

b. All GSA personnel and contractors must be provided CUI building information when needed for the performance of official Federal, state, and local government functions, such as for code compliance reviews and the issuance of building permits. Public safety entities such as fire and utility departments may have a Lawful Government Purpose to access CUI building information on a case-by-case basis. This clause must not prevent or encumber the necessary dissemination of CUI building information to public safety entities.

2. Dissemination of CUI building information:

a. By electronic transmission. Electronic transmission of CUI information outside of the GSA network must use session encryption (or alternatively, file encryption) consistent with National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) SP 800- 171. Encryption must be through an approved NIST algorithm with a valid certification, such as Advanced Encryption Standard or Triple Data Encryption Standard, in accordance with Federal Information Processing Standards Publication 140-2, Security Requirements for Cryptographic Modules, as required by GSA policy.

b. By nonelectronic form or on portable electronic data storage devices. Portable electronic data storage devices include CDs, DVDs, and USB drives. Nonelectronic forms of CUI building information include paper documents, photographs, and film, among other formats.

i. By mail. Contractors must only use methods of shipping that provide services for monitoring receipt such as track and confirm, proof of delivery, signature confirmation, or return receipt.

ii. In person. Contractors must provide CUI building information only to authorized recipients with a Lawful Government Purpose to access such information. Further information on authorized recipients is found in section 1 of this clause.

3. Record keeping. Contractors must maintain a list of all entities to which CUI is disseminated, in accordance with sections 2 and 3 of this clause. This list must include, at a minimum: (1) the name of the state, Federal, or local government entity, utility, or firm to which CUI has been

Document: C101-SB-GC/OCTOBER 2021 disseminated; (2) the name of the individual at the entity or firm who is responsible for protecting the CUI building information, with access strictly controlled and limited to those individuals having a Lawful Government Purpose to access such information; (3) contact information for the named individual; and (4) a description of the CUI building information provided. Once “as built” drawings are submitted, the contractor must collect all lists maintained in accordance with this clause, including those maintained by any subcontractors and suppliers, and submit them to the CO. For Federal buildings, final payment may be withheld until the lists are received.

4. Safeguarding CUI documents. CUI building information (both electronic and paper formats) must be stored within controlled environments that prevent unauthorized access. GSA contractors and subcontractors must not take CUI building information outside of GSA or their own facilities or network, except as necessary for the performance of that contract. Access to the information must be limited to those with a Lawful Government Purpose for access.

5. Destroying CUI building information. When no longer needed, CUI building information must either be returned to the CO or destroyed in accordance with guidelines in NIST Special Publication 800-88, Guidelines for Media Sanitization.

6. Notice of disposal. The contractor must notify the CO that all CUI building information has been returned or destroyed by the contractor and its subcontractors or suppliers in accordance with paragraphs 4 and 5 of this clause, with the exception of the contractor's record copy. This notice must be submitted to the CO at the completion of the contract to receive final payment.

For leases, this notice must be submitted to the CO at the completion of the lease term.

7. CUI security incidents. All improper disclosures or receipt of CUI building information must be immediately reported to the CO and the GSA Incident Response Team Center at gsa-ir@gsa.gov.

(i) SUMMARY OF CONTRACT CONDITIONS

a. General: The purpose of this contract is to establish terms and conditions upon which the Contractor(s) will affect repairs and alterations to Government owned and leased space in various buildings within the geographic boundaries established in this contract, under task orders issued by the Contracting Officer and Designated Ordering Officials. Task orders will be for construction services.

b. Location of work: The work ordered under this contract may be performed in any Government-owned building or Government-leased space within the Pennsylvania, New Jersey and Delaware counties listed above, including but not limited to repairs, alterations, renovations and modernization of buildings or portions thereof. Additional surrounding counties may be included.

c. Orders: This contract is an Indefinite Quantity Term Contract (IQC). An IQC provides for the furnishing of an indefinite quantity, within stated limits, of certain property or services during a specified time period. Deliveries will be scheduled by the placement of orders upon the Contractor. This contract shall include all materials, labor, and equipment required to perform the work described in the specifications.

d. Estimated Contract Value: The approximate quantity of contract services anticipated to be performed under all of the contracts awarded through this solicitation is $80 per year. This is merely an estimate and does not in any way limit GSA from ordering up to the annual maximum stated in Paragraph n, below, nor does it guarantee awardees any work above the guaranteed minimum stated in Paragraph k, below.

Document: C101-SB-GC/OCTOBER 2021

e. Multiple Awards: The Government intends on selecting a minimum of 4 contractors and a maximum of 6 contractors for said contract. The exact number of awardees will be determined by the Source Selection Team during the evaluation of proposals and will be based primarily on the number, location, and capabilities of the highest rated firms as well as GSA’s anticipated workload over the term of the contract.

f. The Government may order services that do not fall within the stipulated minimum/maximum order limitations, but the Contractor may reject such orders by written notice to the ordering official. If the Contractor does not reject these orders within five (5) days of receipt, such orders shall be deemed accepted, and all provisions of the contract shall apply.

g. Delivery orders shall not be split into several orders to avoid compliance with the preceding ordering limitation.

h. Building Access: Access to these buildings may be obtained by contacting the Building Manager, whose address and telephone number will be given with each request for proposal and subsequent task order.

i. Length of Contract. The base period of this contract shall last for a period of 12 consecutive months. Task Orders may be placed beginning the first day of the contract through the expiration date of the contract.

j. Options. This contract includes 4 option periods to extend the term of the contract for an additional year. Each option period will last 12 months, beginning the day after the expiration of the base period; through Option IV, should the Government choose to extend any or all options. The Government has the unilateral right to exercise the options. Please refer to contract clauses associated with options. The government may elect to extend the services for up to an additional six months beyond the Option IV expiration under FAR 52.217-8.

k. Guaranteed Minimum (ONLY APPLIES TO THE INITIAL YEAR OR BASE PERIOD). The guaranteed minimum amount under the proposed contract is $2,000 for the initial year or base period of each contract. If the awardee does not receive an order, or several orders, totaling $2,000 or more during the initial year/base period of the contract, the Government will be obligated to pay that awardee the guaranteed minimum amount of $2,000. Failure to submit a proposal in response to any (at least 1) Request For Proposal issued during the initial year/base period in accordance with the terms and conditions of this contract, will result in the contractor's forfeiture of this guaranteed minimum amount.

l. Each delivery order will specify the anticipated percentage of work to be performed during normal hours and the percentage of work to be performed during non-working hours. Normal working hours will be listed in each Request for Proposal issued for a specific building.
