1. Contract Description

1.1. The Multiple Award Construction Contract (MACC) is an Indefinite-Delivery, Indefinite-Quantity (IDIQ) contract for execution that supplements Civil Engineer’s (CE) in-house capability to perform construction, facility repair/alteration, and real property repair/alteration projects on an as needed basis. This requirement is geared primarily towards repair/alteration projects but may also be used to perform new construction projects. The contractor shall provide all material, equipment, labor and general conditions to accomplish design, repair, and construction projects in an expeditious manner. The work may include facility upgrades, utility work, airfield pavement, roads, roofs and other assorted repair and alteration projects. The construction work includes tasks in various trades such as carpentry, hazardous materials abatement/removal, demolition, mechanical, electrical, plumbing, concrete masonry, welding, and paving.

Design as used in this acquisition means project estimating and preparation of complete designs. All construction/design shall be in compliance with the Elmendorf Architectural Compatibility Standards, the Richardson Installation Design Guide and Section 1200 General Design Section.

1.2. Design Build: MACC contractor shall develop project design documentation including drawings, Scope of

Work, cost estimate broken out by CSI division and submittals representative of up to a 65% design effort (unless specified that higher design levels be submitted in Task Order) as adequate to perform the construction. Upon completion of design, and upon acceptance by the Government, construction execution shall commence and be completed in accordance with Task Order requirements. See Section 01200 for specific requirements related to Design.

1.3. Construction Only: MACC contractor shall provided completed design document drawings, Scope of

Work and available specifications to initiate and complete construction execution in accordance with Task Order requirements. The MACC contractor will then develop a price proposal and a schedule to complete project.

1.4. The geographic scope of this contract includes the property and facilities located within the jurisdiction of Joint Base Elmendorf Richardson (JBER).

2. Contract Requirements

2.1 The Contractor shall furnish all management, supervision, labor, materials, equipment, and incidentals required for a broad range of maintenance, repair, and minor/new construction work on various real property facilities covered under this contract, including design and engineering services incidental to construction. The Contracting Officer (CO) will conduct negotiations with the Contractor and issue individual Task Orders (TO) for maintenance, repair and minor construction projects identified by the Base Civil Engineer (BCE) as part of this MACC program.

2.2 MACC Master Specifications

2.2.1 This contract will utilize the Unified Facilities Guide Specifications (UFGS). UFGS standard specifications can be obtained from the Whole Building Design Guide website: https://www.wbdg.org/dod/ufgs. The Unified Facilities Guide Specifications (UFGS) are hereby incorporated into the solicitation and any resultant contract. Each TO will remain under the UFGS version that was in effect at the time of TO award or through any supplements issued by the Government when individual TO’s are modified to add additional work. Only the additional work may be applicable to the current UFGS.

2.2.2 Specifications are numbered and organized in accordance with the Construction Specification Institute’s

(CSI) Master Format. All specifications are filed in Division 2 through 48 per CSI guidelines.

2.2.3 In accordance with FAR 36.101 the order of precedence specified in FAR Clause 52.236-21 shall take https://www.wbdg.org/dod/ufgs precedence over FAR 52.215-8; in the case of difference between drawings and specifications the specifications shall govern.

2.2.4 The Government will identify the required elements of work in the project Scope of Work and Drawings.

Following the project award, the successful contractor shall utilize the UFGS Guide Specs and apply the elements of work identified by the Government to develop the project specific specification to be submitted to the Government for approval.

2.3 Bona Fide Need Requirement. All Task Orders awarded near the end of the fiscal year shall satisfy a bona fide need on or before 31 December of the same calendar year. To satisfy bona fide need the Contractor shall meet either the physical onsite evidence requirement or the documentation evidence requirement, at the CO’s discretion:

2.3.1 Physical Onsite Evidence: A visual inspection of the work site discloses meaningful work has been accomplished, or contractor employees are actively engaged in work performance (no further verification is necessary); or

2.3.2 Documentary Evidence: If physical onsite evidence of performance does not exist, and to prevent unwarranted default proceedings, the CO may request documentary evidence that cost has been incurred, or material has been ordered to allow performance of the task order.

3. Contractor Organization

3.1. The contractor shall have available an in-house design staff or hire a design firm for the development of task orders requiring design efforts up to the 65% or beyond effort to respond to the requirements of this multi-discipline MACC type contract.

4. Ordering Procedures

4.1 As the need arises for performance under the terms of this contract, the CO or authorized representative will issue a Fair Opportunity Proposal Request (FOPR). Orders placed will be competitively awarded using FAR 16.505(b)(1) fair opportunity processes with specific instructions provided within each FOPR.

4.2 Orders shall be issued on a Firm-Fixed Price (FFP) basis. The Contract Line Item Number (CLIN) structure on each order will reflect the FFP for each line item and will strictly follow the CLIN structure outlined in the IDIQ contract. Order competition for subsequent award is as follows:

4.3 Fair Opportunity Proposal Request (FOPR)

4.3.1 The ordering CO will initiate the FOPR process by sending a FOPR letter and attachments (herein referred to as the FOPR package) to IDIQ holders following FAR 16.505.

- The FOPR letter may include the following information

- Date of package

- Proposal due date and name/email address of POC to submit proposal

- Date, time, and location of pre-proposal site visit

- Magnitude of construction estimate IAW FAR 36.204

- Project specific statement of work/performance work statement/statement of objectives

4.3.2 For each FOPR, the CO will provide the Contractor with one (1) copy of the Government’s Statement of Work (SOW) and requirements package.

4.3.3 Although the Contractor may be given a preliminary or complete design package, it is still the Contractor’s responsibility under FAR 52.236-3 to investigate the site and conditions affecting the work prior to proposal submission. The Contractor may reproduce the drawings and specifications at the Contractor’s own expense if additional copies are needed. The Contractor shall check all drawings and specifications for discrepancies upon receipt and notify the CO or their designated representative immediately of any discrepancies via a written Request for Information (RFI). The RFI shall be forwarded to the CO for review and in-turn forwarded to the assigned MACC Project Manager(s) for review, clarification and response. Enlarged plans and details shall govern where the same work is shown at smaller scales. The Contractor shall compare all drawings and verify the installation before laying out the work and shall be responsible for any errors which might have been avoided thereby.

4.3.4 Brand Name Descriptions: The Statement of Work (SOW), drawings and the Technical Provisions of the specifications may, in some instances, refer to certain items of equipment, material, or article by trade name/brand name. References of this type shall not be construed as limiting competition, but shall be regarded as establishing the physical, functional and performance needs in order to meet the minimum level of quality or reliability desired. These brand name references are not intended to limit materials or services to only the brand name UNLESS a Justification and Approval (J&A) is included with the FOPR. If there are any questions regarding the Government’s definition of minimum quality or reliability standards, in reference to a brand name, a request for additional information shall be requested in writing to the CO within five (5) business days of receiving the FOPR.

4.3.5 Task Order Site Superintendent, Quality Control, and Site Safety and Health Officer requirements.

Each SOW will identify the manning requirements for the above three functions. Depending on job magnitude and complexity, the Government, at its sole discretion, will specify whether one person can perform all three functions, whether two people can perform the three functions or whether a single individual per function are required on the job site.

4.3.6 When one, two or three individuals are required per task order the following personnel mixes are acceptable:

− One Person: Superintendent/QC/SSHO performed by single qualified individual − Two Person: Superintendent + QC/SSHO (dual role) or Superintendent/SSHO (dual role) + QC − Three Person: Superintendent + QC + SSHO

4.3.7 The site superintendent is always required on site IAW FAR 52.236-6 and shall not dual role as the QC unless the task order has been designated as one person IAW 4.3.6 & 4.3.7.

4.3.8 QC and SSHOs are required to attend all construction sites daily to perform their functions unless the task order requires three individuals at which point all three positions are required onsite during performance of work.

4.3.9 If an individual FOPR does not identify the number of required personnel, the default will be “two persons” unless changed in writing by the CO.

4.4 Pre-Proposal Site Visit

4.4.1 After the release of a FOPR, the Government and the Contractors will schedule and conduct a pre-proposal site visit for the project. Interchanges held during the site visit may include, but are not limited to scope of work, method of construction, sequence of operations, progress schedule, means of access to project site, delivery and storage of materials and equipment, work restrictions, coordination requirements, project goals, liquidated damages and potential difficulties/problems.

4.4.2 Any questions asked during the site visit or identified after the site visit shall be submitted by the prime contractor in writing as a Request for Information (RFI) to the CO and designated Contract Specialist within three (3) business days after the site visit unless a shorter timeframe is specified in the FOPR.

Questions received after the deadline may be answered at the sole discretion of the CO. The CO will provide a finalized SOW by amendment (if necessary) to the FOPR following submission of the site visit questions, unless determined otherwise by the CO. The CO will provide a proposal deadline five (5) business days after Government responses to Q&A/RFI’s are posted unless otherwise identified in the

FOPR.

4.4.3 As part of meeting the requirements of FAR 52.236-3, Site Investigation and Conditions Affecting the

Work, the Government shall provide the as-built and other drawings they believe are necessary to support the contractor’s needs and perform the scope of work. Following Task Order (TO)award Contractors may access additional historical drawings related to the project site or facility. Historical records and drawings (if they are available) are located in the 673d CES Civil Engineer Squadron, Bldg. 724, drawing vault.

Contractors will be required to bring a copy of the TO signed by the CO to the drawing vault in order to be authorized access. Contractors shall not use the drawing vault to research any building/project for which they do not have a signed TO or contract/task order. Contractors found violating this policy may have their access to the drawing vault restricted and/or have further administrative actions levied.

4.5 Proposal Submission Process

4.5.1 All Contractors are highly encouraged to submit a proposal for every FOPR under this contract. Failure to propose as a meaningful participant may result in the Contractor’s off-ramping from the MACC program via termination IAW the On/Off Ramp Procedures contained in Section H of the contract. The CO will conduct an annual review on all current MACC contractors to ensure meaningful participation is occurring.

If the CO believes a MACC contractor is not a meaningful participant, a meeting will be established to discuss the Governments concerns.

4.5.2 Normal Response Requirements: If the requirement is determined to be a normal response requirement by the CO, the contractor shall submit a Task Order Proposal to fulfill the requirement within fourteen (14) calendar days or the time specified in the TO, whichever is later.

4.5.3 Quick Response Requirements: If the requirement is determined to be a quick response requirement by the CO, the contractor shall submit a Task Order Proposal to fulfill the requirement within a maximum of seven (7) calendar days from written notification.

4.5.4 If no proposals or only one proposal is received, the Government, at its discretion, may revalidate the FOPR requirement. The validation process may include interchanges of information with some or all the Contractors to determine whether there are concerns about the FOPR requirement. Should the requirement be validated, the FOPR package may be reissued.

4.5.5 The Contractor’s proposal shall be submitted to the ordering CO on or before the time and date specified in the FOPR letter. Pricing on task order proposals shall be valid for a minimum of 90 calendar days after the required submission date unless otherwise specified in the individual FOPR.

4.5.6 Proposals may be requested and processed up to the point of award in advance of funding, then held, for the entire period specified in the FOPR. If funding becomes available after proposed prices expire IAW the timeline given in the FOPR, all Contractors who submitted a proposal will be offered an opportunity to update their pricing. The CO may cancel a FOPR at CO discretion. After cancellation, a a new FOPR may be issued. It is the government’s intent to award a task order for each proposal processed up to the point of award; however, due to changes in the construction program, congressional budget changes or world events, some projects may be canceled. No compensation for cancelled FOPRs will be granted to the contractor.

4.6 Project Proposal

For FOPRs associated with a new task order, the Contractor shall provide a written proposal describing the Contractor’s approach to the proposed project work described in the Government’s SOO/SOW and project drawings (if any) or a price only proposal may be requested. The proposal shall include at a minimum, a cover letter and a completed pricing schedule.

The FOPR may require all or some of the following additional documents: a narrative describing the approach to the proposed project as described in the Government’s SOO/SOW to include all major components of the project; an AF Form 66 Schedule of Material Submittals identifying any supplemental submittals in addition to those identified by the government; a detailed project schedule in Microsoft Project (will be in Adobe .pdf format), or equivalent, that includes all major components of the project, and their associated percentage of effort; and any other information as needed to demonstrate a complete and thorough understanding of construction effort. The minimum requirements will be identified in each individual FOPR based on the COs discretion, taking into account such factors as complexity, urgency, historical knowledge or other factors affecting the individual FOPR.

The Government intends to make proposals minimally burdensome with the majority being price only or price and technical narrative. The CO at their sole discretion may amend a FOPR at any time to include additional requirements as they become necessary for the Government to ensure clear understanding of a requirement.

4.6.1 Cover Page. The cover page or pages shall include project title, total project cost, list of assumptions, list of requirements, performance period, material long-lead times, any exclusions and any special considerations such as phasing of construction. The contractor’s proposals shall be complete and concise.

The cost breakdown shall include a breakout of costs and quantities for all labor, materials, equipment, overhead, and profit for the prime contractor and all subcontractors. The breakout shall be organized by division of work and include sub-line items of work, provided in a clear and concise format, to enable a straightforward evaluation of the proposal by the Government.

4.6.3.2 The Government anticipates the detailed cost breakdown will be required infrequently in response to

FOPRs. They may be requested for a variety of reasons, including but not limited to establishing price reasonableness or to evaluate pricing when only one offer is received. Detailed breakdowns may also be requested if the Government deems it necessary to reasonably determine the Contractor’s understanding of the project. Detailed breakdowns are required in most cases for modification proposals.

4.7 Task Order Proposal Evaluation

4.7.1 Task orders issued under each contract award are subject to the requirements of Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 16.505, Orders under Multiple Award Contracts.

If additional time is required by the contractor to provide specific submittals, the contractor shall identify the submittals requiring the time extension and request an extension from the CO; including the reason for the needed time extension and the date the submittals will be provided. The extension will be approved by the CO.

6.3. Submittals shall include items such as: contractor’s work plans / schedules, material submittal register, samples, brochures, manufacturers data, product data sheets, shop drawings and/or certificates of materials (relative to the construction execution), contractor's, manufacturer's, or fabricator's drawings; descriptive literature including (but not limited to) catalog cuts, diagrams, operating charts or curves; test reports; test cylinders; samples; O&M manuals (including parts list); certifications; warranties; Hazardous Materials Safety Data Sheets, and other such required submittals. All unrelated items and information on the submittal shall be crossed out.

6.4. Contractor shall plan for and submit all submittals requiring Government approval prior to the acquisition of the material or equipment covered thereby, in accordance with design criteria, specifications and FOPR requirements.

Certification letter will contain the task order number and approved electronic copies of AF Form 3000 submittal.

6.6.3. Approved Submittals: The CO’s approval of submittals shall not be construed as a complete check but will indicate only that the general method of construction, materials, methods and other information are satisfactory. Approval will not relieve the contractor of the responsibility for any error that may exist, as the contractor under the Contractor Quality Control (CQC) requirements of this contract is responsible for dimensions, the design of adequate connections and details, and the satisfactory construction of all work.

After submittals have been approved by the CO, no resubmittal for the purpose of substituting materials or equipment will be considered unless accompanied by an explanation of why a substitution is necessary.

6.6.4. Disapproved Submittals: The contractor shall make all corrections required by the CO and furnish a corrected submittal.
