TECHNICAL EVALUATION FACTORS is hereby incorporated.

II.D. Technical Proposal

The Technical Proposal shall include the information requested below for the non-price factors described in Section VI. REFER TO THE ATTACHED SHEET: TECHNICAL EVALUATION FACTORS

A. Experience on Comparable Projects

This factor considers the extent of the Offeror’s past experience as a firm in providing similar construction services.

The Offeror must demonstrate successful experience as a General Contractor (GC) responsible for the construction of two “similar” projects substantially completed within the past eight (8) years from the date of the RFQ. Project shall be considered “similar” if it meets ALL of the following characteristics:

1. Project involved tenant fit-out, the reconfiguration or reorganization of office space.

2. Project was performed in an occupied and functioning office building.

3. Project included Electrical, HVAC, Plumbing, Sprinkler and Fire Alarm work, Interior, Construction

(i.e., Partitions, Floor/Wall/Ceiling, and Interior Doors/Finishes).

4. The total project construction cost at award of the construction contract was at least $4,500,000.

MANDATORY REQUIREMENT: At least one of these two “similar” projects must have included constructing/building-out SCIF (controlled access and secured work area) as prior experience.

Submission Required by Offeror:

Submit two construction projects that demonstrate past experience described above. For the projects offered under this evaluation factor, the Offeror must include the information below:

Acceptability Standard: This factor will be evaluated based upon the Offeror’s written response to the

RFQ. However, the Government reserves the right to contact references under this evaluation factor to verify the scope of the project offered. If the Offeror materially misrepresents information relating to its experience, the Contracting Officer may reject the proposal. Any proposal which does not provide one

“similar” project substantially completed within the past eight (8) years from the date of the RFQ and meet ALL of the above similar characteristics and the MANDATORY REQUIREMENT, then the project, will not be considered technically acceptable.

B. Designated Key Personnel (Superintendent, Project Manager, Quality Assurance Manager, Scheduler)

The Offeror shall provide the name, title, company name, current address, current phone number, current email address, and current fax number for the reference. Offeror is responsible for the accuracy of this information.

Evaluation Criteria: This factor evaluates the past performance of the Offeror to determine responsibility.

COMMENT CLARIFICATION

2.1. PROJECT REQUIREMENTS, Interior

Construction: No mention of raised access flooring. Are they able to use existing flooring materials that are available in the DOC?

GSA has no objection to using the existing raised flooring material available in the DOC on this project. (FOR INFORMATION ONLY: Compu-

Site Technologies, Inc. was the raised floor installer on previous DOC projects.)

2.1. PROJECT REQUIREMENTS, Interior

Construction: 3. Flooring/Walls/Ceilings/Paint –

Interior finishes. Need to ensure that the contractor is aware that the graphic wall procurement and installation is part of their scope. NOTED.

2.1. PROJECT REQUIREMENTS, Electrical:

Need to make it clear to the contractor they will be responsible for all pathways/conduits to support AV/IT/PS systems. NOTED.

2.1. PROJECT REQUIREMENTS, Electrical: 2.

The Contractor shall comply with DHS policies, standards, and procedures as they relate to this

Contract.

2.1. PROJECT REQUIREMENTS, Electrical: 7.

This is planned to be hashed out in a page turn once GSA has made the award to the successful offeror.

2.2. PROJECT SITE REQUIREMENTS, 2.2.3.

Loading Dock. Need to determine the path the contractor will use to get materials into the DOC and how they are going to remove the large steel framing.
