6.1 GENERAL
6.2 DISCUSSION
1.0 OVERVIEW
Those Offerors short-listed in Phase 1 are invited to submit a Phase 2 proposal, as indicated below. The Government will evaluate the proposals in accordance with the evaluation criteria described herein, using the evaluation rating systems outlined in the Phase 1 Design-Build selection procedures. Price information will be evaluated for fairness, reasonableness, and for material unbalancing, as described herein. The Phase 2 evaluation will be conducted in accordance with FAR Part 15 and will utilize the Tradeoff Process described in FAR 15.101-1.
2.0 BASIS OF AWARD
The Contracting Officer will award a firm fixed-price contract to that responsible Phase 2 Offeror whose proposal the Source Selection Authority determines conforms to the solicitation, is fair and reasonable, and offers the best overall value to the Government, considering the non-price factors described herein, and price. All evaluation factors, other than price, when combined, are considered significantly more important than the price; however, the contract award may not exceed the funds available for this project.
The intent of this solicitation is to obtain the best proposal within the cost limitation. There is no obligation to approach or match the cost limitation in the offer. After the Government individually evaluates and rates each proposal, the Source Selection Authority will compare proposals to determine which proposal represents the best value. Proposals will not be ranked. The Government reserves the right to accept other than the lowest priced offer or to reject all offers. The Government will not award a contract to an Offeror whose proposal contains a deficiency, as defined in FAR 15.001. If there is a lower priced, conforming offer(s), the Contracting Officer/Source Selection Authority must determine that the added value of a more expensive proposal (within the funds available) would justify award to that Offeror.
2.1. BETTERMENTS
As part of the evaluation, the Government will evaluate betterments in proposals relative to the minimum standards in the RFP to determine if they offer additional value to the Government. In addition, innovations in proposals will be evaluated to determine if creative ideas of the Offeror are a better value to the Government compared to the minimum criteria.
2.2. COMPLETENESS
Proposals should be submitted initially on the most favorable terms from a price and technical standpoint.
Do no assume Offerors will be contacted or afforded an opportunity to clarify, discuss or revise their proposals.

5.0 VOLUME 1 – FACTOR 1 – DESIGN-TECHNICAL
5.1. GENERAL
The Design-Technical Factor consists of conceptual level drawings, technical approach narratives and information regarding material and system quality. It must clearly define the proposed scope of work and quality levels that the design-build team is offering to the Government in enough detail for the Government and the Offeror to mutually understand whether or not the proposal meets or exceeds the minimum solicitation requirements.
The use of Building Information Modeling (BIM) to prepare or submit proposal is NOT required. Fully developed drawings, details and/or specifications are not required. The Government will not be performing a detailed engineering analysis or design review at the proposal stage.
The proposal submission and review process will focus on the proposed quality levels of materials and systems, and will not involve detailed design effort or a detailed engineering review. If the Government evaluators have actual knowledge or strong suspicion that a proposed product or solution is inappropriately sized, being used in the wrong application or otherwise does not meet the contract requirement, the Government will inform the Offeror in the event that discussions are conducted with the firm, but the Government is not asking for design analyses in the proposal and is not obligated to perform an engineering design review at this stage. After award, in the event of conflict between the Contractor’s accepted proposal and the requirements in the final amended RFP, the order of precedence is indicated in Special Contract Requirements SCR-DB040, DESING/BUILD CONTRACT – ORDER OF PRECEDENCE. The Offeror shall identify what it considers to be Betterments in its proposal for Subfactors 1 through 3 of Factor 1 (see Section 00 73 00, SCR “Proposed Betterments”).
Betterments included in the technical submission must also be included in the base price under Factor 2. Do not describe in the narratives or show in the drawings any betterments that are not included in the base price.
The final design must comply with the RFP requirements except that accepted betterments become the new contract minimum requirements. Note that the Government will not evaluate any material that exceeds the page limits, where indicated below.

5.3.3 EVALUATION CRITERIA
5.3.3.1 General
It is the Army’s objective that this building will have a 50 year useful life. The design and construction should provide an appropriate level of quality to ensure the continued use of the facility over that time period with the application of reasonable preventative maintenance and repairs that would be industry-acceptable to a major civilian sector project Owner. The Army may repurpose the building or perform a major renovation at some point over that 50 year life; the design of systems should be flexible and adaptable to possible future uses different than the current to the extent practical, while still meeting operational and functional requirements defined within the Scope of Work. It is assumed that mechanical and electrical systems and interior architectural finishes shall perform for an average of 20 to 30 years with minor repairs and without replacement; historically the Army repurposes a facility once in the first 25 years. The Government will evaluate the Offeror selected systems and components proposed in terms of extended warranties provided, maintenance considerations (frequency, cost, access, equipment locations), operability (ease of use, placement of control features, simplicity), durability (withstanding warfighter usage, ease of cleaning), sustainability, and energy consumption (particularly HVAC, lighting and power). Residential or similar grade finishes and materials are not acceptable for inclusion in this proposal.
5.3.3.2 The Government encourages the Offeror to place emphasis on those design features which optimize and emphasize functional/operational requirements; interior/exterior finishes and systems; and life cycle/energy efficiency. The features that the Government has identified below as desirable features, the items that the Government has identified in paragraph 5.3.1 as preferable and Offeror-identified betterments may be given additional consideration during the evaluation process, provided they are included within contract cost limitation identified in the solicitation and the Offeror’s proposed base contract price. The order of importance for proposed betterments for rating purposes is as follows:
desirable features, preferable items and other Offeror-identified betterments. The Government will identify those Offeror-identified betterments that are not desired, or are otherwise objectionable or unacceptable, if discussions are conducted with that Offeror. Unsubstantiated claims or unsubstantiated narrative information will not be given evaluation credit during the evaluations. The following elements (not rated separately) will be considered in the evaluation of the building systems and materials of the facility:

5.4.2 EVALUATION CRITERIA
5.4.2.1 Proposed Contract Duration
The Offeror’s proposed contract duration will become the contractually binding completion period and will replace the duration stated in FAR 52.211-10 upon contract award. The Government will evaluate the contract duration, as proposed by the Offeror under this Tab and in the Contract Line Item Schedule, not to exceed the maximum allowed duration stated in FAR 52.211-10. In assessing the reasonableness of the proposed contract duration, the Government may take into account how well the proposed summary schedule supports the proposed duration, as well as use other information, such as but not limited to, independent judgment concerning logic, constraints and typical construction durations. Include all significant milestones to include design schedule, demolition, long lead items, commissioning and both pre-final and final inspections in the submitted schedule
5.4.2.2 Summary Schedule
In addition to the proposed contract duration, the Government will evaluate the summary schedule for integrated design and construction. The length of the schedule must match the Offeror’s proposed contract duration. If it is shorter than the proposed contract duration, it offers no advantage to the Government because it is non-binding, only representing a preliminary planned schedule. A schedule shorter than the proposed contract duration may indicate the Offeror is placing additional risk on the Government for any delays between the scheduled completion date and the required contract completion period. Both parties shall assume field overhead costs are included in the contract price for the full proposed contract duration. Therefore, the Government believes that there is no valid need to shorten the schedule less than the full proposed contract duration. The Government will evaluate the schedule to assess the strength of understanding of the project scope, restrictions which must be considered in the schedule, for example, permitting (see Section 01 10 00), long lead items, and the like. The Government will evaluate the strength of understanding of events associated with coordinating design submittals, reviews and incorporating review comments, the Offeror's capability to schedule the complete project within the proposed contract duration, and the realism of the schedule. The Government will evaluate the design packaging plan for logic, reasonableness, how it facilitates meeting the proposed contract duration and how it facilitates the Government’s ability to timely perform its design reviews. The packaging plan should minimize risk to the Contractor and to the Government for tear-out and coordination for reviews.
A schedule that offers advantage(s) to the Government over one that merely indicates an adequate understanding of the scope, restrictions, major milestones and general understanding of the various events that can affect start and completion of construction will receive additional consideration.
5.5 VOLUME 2, FACTOR 2 – PRICE AND PRO FORMA INFORMATION
5.5.1 GENERAL
Submit the Pro Forma information in a separate envelope labeled: “Phase 2, Volume 2 – Pro Forma Requirements.”
5.5.2 VOLUME 2 – FACTOR 2 – PRICE (STANDARD FORM 1442 AND CONTRACT LINE ITEM
SCHEDULE)
5.5.2.1 Submission Requirements
Submit the properly filled out and executed SF 1442, along with the CLIN Schedule, containing proposed line item and total pricing, as well as the proposed contract duration. See instructions in Section 00 21 00, “Instructions to Offerors.”
5.5.2.2 Supplemental Price Breakdown
If deemed necessary to evaluate the price proposals, the Government will request a Phase 2 price breakdown of the Contract Line items in a sealed envelope marked “Phase 2 Price Breakdown Information,” in Excel format. The Government will provide details on where and how to send the breakdown. This information will not be needed sooner than three (3) working days after the proposal submission due date. This information may be required for the initial Phase 2 proposal and, if requested, for any revised proposals. This information is not an opportunity for an Offeror to revise its non-price or price proposal.
5.5.3 EVALUATION CRITERIA
Price will not be rated or scored, but will be evaluated for fairness and reasonableness through the use of a price analysis. Price analysis will be used to clearly demonstrate that proposed prices are reasonable compared with current or recent prices for the same or similar items, adjusted to reflect changes in market conditions, economic conditions, quantities, or terms and conditions under contracts that resulted from adequate price competition. The price evaluators will also check for appearance of unbalanced line item prices. Offerors are cautioned to distribute direct costs, such as material, labor, equipment, subcontracts, etc. and to evenly distribute indirect costs, such as job overhead, home office overhead, bond, etc., to the appropriate contract line items. Both parties shall presume that field overhead costs through the proposed contract duration are inclusive in the offered price for the contract.
5.5.3.1 If deemed necessary, the supplemental price breakdown information will be used to assist the Government in performing the price evaluations described above.
5.5.3.2 Award may not be made for project cost for design and construction exceeding the contract cost limitation described herein.

6.0 EVALUATION PROCEDURES:
6.1 GENERAL
The Source Selection Evaluation Board (SSEB) will evaluate the proposals and assign a consensus rating for each evaluation factor and subfactor, utilizing the evaluation and rating system described in Section 00 22 10, except for past performance, which has its own rating scale.
6.2 DISCUSSION (If Necessary)
6.2.1 During Phase 2, the Government intends to award without discussions. A “Competitive Range” is a subjective determination of the most highly rated Phase 2 proposals in the event that discussions with Offerors are required in Phase 2. In such an event, the Contracting Officer will establish a competitive range of all the most highly rated Phase 2 proposals.
6.2.2 If discussions are held, the Government may engage in a broad give and take with each Offeror in the competitive range, in accordance with FAR 15.306 (d). During discussions, the Government may ask the Offeror to further explain its proposal and to answer questions about it.
6.2.3 Upon conclusion of discussions, those Offerors still considered the most highly rated, will be afforded an opportunity to submit their Phase 2 proposal revisions for final evaluation and selection.
