C-1. CONTRACT DESCRIPTION

The Multiple Award Task Order Contract (IDIQ) is an Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) Contract to establish terms and conditions upon which the contractor(s) will perform planning and executing conservation services on historic properties in order to provide essential continuity from need identification, analysis, and planning through construction completion. These services include, but not limited to: consulting services (e.g., development of architectural conservation plans for specific elements related to a single facility such as surveys and assessments, testing and investigations, feasibility studies, documentation and design; development of cyclic maintenance plans and preventive conservation program plans, and cleaning methodology; and inspection of work performed by other Government contractors), onsite work (e.g., architectural conservation and preservation, repair, replacement, and minor maintenance of historically significant interior/exterior materials and building elements), or a combination of the consulting and the onsite work. Work shall be for GSA owned or leased real property in all of GSA’s Region 10 geographic areas (including: Alaska, Idaho, Oregon, and Washington). Types of facilities include, but are not limited to administrative buildings, courthouses, warehouses, and land port of entry. Task Order execution will be directed by one of the following work elements:

C-1.1. Conservation Team as Consultant & Constructor (CaCC) The CaCC project delivery is defined as a comprehensive delivery method unique to the conservation of built structures. This delivery method allows for professional services, condition assessment and construction that adheres to the conservation process of assessment and treatment. Work anticipated to be ordered under this project delivery method includes, but is not limited to:

● Architectural conservation and preservation, repair, replacement, and minor maintenance of historically significant materials within the designated facilities;

● Exterior project work (e.g., envelope, cladding, windows, unique and custom architectural elements). Interior project work unique, custom architectural materials in, flooring, ceilings, and interior wall of different compositions. (The work may be related to or affect electrical, mechanical, fire & life-safety systems, conveyance systems, and building automation systems.)

Task Orders may be awarded using performance based requirements similar to design-build to accomplish the intended outcomes (see C-6 below). The Conservation Team or those firms in CTA that have a lead contractor are responsible for project management, site superintendence, subcontractor management of both related professional services and physical restoration efforts, and quality control of completed work.

Task Orders may include emergency services such as stabilization for damaged or vandalized architectural materials to ensure their safety until full conservation assessment and treatment may be performed. The objective is to provide emergency conservation service response within forty-eight (48) hours, or as needed to reduce or limit damage to threatened architectural materials or artworks in the case of a Federal building emergency where the decorative feature(s) is/are threatened by natural or man-made disaster (e.g., flood, fire, earthquake, terrorism, or civil emergency). A disaster response may be limited to a telephone consultation or may require a site response as determined by the Government.

C-1.2. Conservation Team as Consultant Services (CCS) Conservation Team Consultant Services (CCS) covers a wide variety of tasks exclusive of self-performing the conservation and preservation work including but not limited to planning, problem-solving, maintenance, training, and inspection. Task Orders may focus on the development of architectural conservation plans for specific elements related to a single facility such as surveys and assessments, testing and investigations, feasibility studies, documentation and design. Maintenance Task Orders may include the development of cyclic maintenance plans and preventive conservation program plans, and cleaning methodology. Inspection Task Orders under this contract would be for the inspection of work performed by other Government contractors not utilizing this contract. The purpose is to determine if the findings provided by the contractor to the GSA COR for acceptable preservation and/or conservation work.

F-4. VENDOR PAST PERFORMANCE SYSTEM

F.4.1. The General Services Administration (GSA), Public Buildings Service (PBS), uses the Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS) as the secure, confidential, information management tool to facilitate the performance evaluation process and provides a record, both positive and negative, on a given contractor during a specific period of time.

CPARS enables a comprehensive evaluation by capturing comments from both GSA and the contractor. The following are the modules of the system:

CPARS module: This module is used to create past performance evaluations on all procurements meeting the threshold requirements of FAR Subpart 42.15. FAR Subpart 42.1502(d) Orders under Single-agency contracts. For single-agency task-order and delivery-order contracts, the contracting officer may require performance evaluations for each order in excess of the simplified acquisition threshold when such evaluations would produce more useful past performance information for source selection officials than that contained in the overall contract evaluation (e.g., when the scope of the basic contract is very broad and the nature of individual orders could be significantly different).

● Construction - Task Orders exceeding $700K

F.4.2. Each task order award requiring an evaluation will be registered in CPARS by the government.

The contractor will receive several automated emails annotating contract registration and report status.

F.4.3. Within thirty days of award, the contractor will receive the first email that annotates contract registration containing user account information and evaluation module assigned.

F.4.4. Once the evaluation is completed by GSA, the contractor will receive a second email notifying them that the evaluation is ready for their review and comment. The contractor will have thirty

(30) days to respond to the evaluation. GSA provides a level above the contracting officer (i.e., contracting director) for review to consider any disagreement between GSA and the contractor regarding GSA evaluation of the contractor. Based on the review, the individual at a level above the contracting officer will issue the ultimate conclusion on the performance evaluation.

F.4.5. The contractor will receive a third email once the evaluation is finalized in the system.

F.4.6. Contractors are encouraged to visit http://www.cpars.csd.disa.mil/allapps/cpartrng/webtrain/webtrain_all.htm to sign up for the free on-line Contractor Overview training targeted to contractor users who will provide Past Performance Evaluation comments on the evaluations.

Unless the contractor provides a different point of contact (POC) to the contracting officer after award, the contracting officer will use the Government POC listed in the contractor’s System for Award Management (SAM) profile as the default CPARS POC. This is the person that will receive the above CPARS email alerts.

F.4.7. GSA retains the evaluations, contractor responses, and review comments, if any, as part of the contract file. The evaluations are available for use by all Federal Agencies in support of future award decisions.

L-1. GENERAL INFORMATION

This solicitation is set aside for eligible Small Business Concerns Only.

L-1.1. General Description of Work General Services Administration (GSA) Region 10 intends to conduct this acquisition by use of Competitive Source Selection Procedures in accordance with the provisions set forth in the Request for Proposal (RFP), FAR Part 15. The Government intends to award up to five (5) Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity contracts as part of a Multiple Award Task Order Contract (IDIQ) pool for Historical Preservation Construction Services for GSA Region 10, to the offeror(s) submitting proposals determined to be most advantageous to the Government; price, and other factors considered.

Task orders awarded under this IDIQ shall be firm fixed price (FFP). The intent is to award up to five (5) contracts; however, if the Contracting Officer determines during the source selection process that fewer or more than that number of contracts should be awarded, the Contracting Officer has the discretion of adjusting that number (higher or lower), or awarding none at all. In any case, the Government may not award any contract if the resulting contract would not represent a "best value" to the Government using trade-off selection procedures as required by the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR). It is strongly suggested that the provisions stated in section L and M be fully studied prior to assembly of the proposal.

L-1.2. Copies of Solicitation Documents and Amendments Copies of the solicitation are available by INTERNET ACCESS ONLY. All solicitation documents will be posted to the Federal Business Opportunities website at: http://www.fbo.gov under solicitation number 47PL0118D9000 titled Multiple Award Task Order Contract (IDIQ) Historic Preservation Construction Services for Region 10.

It shall be the contractor’s responsibility to check the website for any amendments. The offeror shall submit in the proposal all requested information specified in this solicitation. There will be no public opening of the proposals received as a result of this solicitation.

Offerors are encouraged to form teaming arrangements, joint ventures, or consortiums involving two or more small businesses. For consolidated acquisitions, the size standard is applied to the individual person or concerns, not to the combined assets of the joint venture. Note: This type of strategy allows members of the Small Business Community to leverage their capabilities to participate at the prime level without invalidating their status as small businesses.

A list of interested vendors (potential offerors and subcontractors) is available on the Federal Business Opportunities website.

L-1.3. To assure timely and equitable evaluation of proposals, offerors must follow the instructions contained herein. Offerors are required to meet all solicitation requirements, including terms and conditions, representations and certifications, and technical requirements, in addition to those identified as evaluation factors. The offeror shall submit in the proposal all requested information specified in this section of the Request for Proposal RFP) solicitation at or before the exact time specified. Failure to meet a requirement may result in an offer being ineligible for award.

L-1.4. The Contracting Officer has determined there is a high probability of adequate price competition in this acquisition. Upon examination of the initial offers, the Contracting Officer will review this determination and if, in the Contracting Officer's opinion, adequate price competition exists, no additional cost information will be requested. However, if at any time during this competition, the Contracting Officer determines that adequate price competition no longer exists; offerors may be required to submit information to the extent necessary for the Contracting Officer to determine the reasonableness and affordability of the price.

L-1.5. Exceptions / Assumptions (if required) Identification and explanation of any exceptions or deviations. Any assumptions used in the proposal preparation must be fully explained. Offerors must clearly identify any exceptions to the solicitation terms and conditions and provide complete accompanying rationale.
