Section 00 00 00 - Procurement and Contracting Requirements

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

A.1 OBJECTIVE: In support of the Medical Repair and Renewal (MRR) Program, the objective of this acquisition is to provide repair and renewal design-build (D-B) and construction services for medical facilities, systems, and equipment. The MRR program provides quick response for medical facility repair, renovation, conversion, alteration, additions, construction, and equipment procurement/installation at Government medical facilities. The MRR program includes the restoration and modernization of hospitals, clinics, medical administration buildings, ambulatory health facilities, medical warehouses, medical labs, biological engineering labs, dental clinics, veterinary clinics, and wellness centers. The contractor will be required to respond to multiple requests for work to support Defense Health Agency (DHA) customers, at diverse locations throughout the Contiguous United States (CONUS), including the District of Columbia; as well as outside the Contiguous United States (OCONUS), including Alaska, Hawaii, Guam (U.S. Territory), Puerto Rico (U.S. Territory), Spain, Germany, Italy, Greece, Turkey, Belgium, Ghana, Honduras, Peru, Guantanamo Bay (Cuba), Japan, Thailand, Philippines, Korea, Singapore, and Cambodia.

A.2 CONTRACT AWARD: This requirement will be solicited using full and open competition with an 8(a) small business reserve and a small business reserve. This will be a Multiple Award Task Order Contract (MATOC) as defined in Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 16.504. It is anticipated that this MATOC will result in the award of twelve (12) contracts, with four (4) reserved for 8(a) small businesses and four (4) reserved for small businesses;

however, the Government reserves the right to award more, less, or none at all, if it is determined to be in the best interest of the Government. The North American Industrial Classification System (NAICS) code for this procurement is 236220 – Commercial and Institutional Building Construction with a small business size standard of $39.5 Million.

A.3 CONTRACT TYPE: The MATOC will consist of Firm Fixed Price (FFP) task orders.

A.4 CONTRACT TERM: This MATOC will have a base ordering period of thirty-six (36) months and four (4), twelve (12) month optional ordering periods, for a possible total of eighty-four (84) months. There is no guarantee that the options will be exercised.

Evaluation of Options: Except when it is determined in accordance with FAR 17.206(b) not to be in the Government’s best interests, the Government will evaluate offers for award purposes by evaluating the maximum rates for the MATOC base period, option periods, and FAR 52.217-8, “Option to Extend Services” not to exceed six (6) months. Evaluation of option period(s) will not obligate the Government to exercise the option(s). Note. If an option year is not exercised and FAR 52.217-8, “Option to Extend Services” is exercised, the maximum rates/pricing for the current period will apply to FAR 52.217-8, “Option to Extend Services.”

A.5 LABOR RATES: The negotiated FFP hourly rates shall be maximum rates for the FFP effort. The Contractor shall not exceed these rates when preparing task order proposals; however, may propose lower rates.

A.6 CONTRACT CAPACITY: The maximum contract capacity is $1.3 Billion for this acquisition. The total capacity will be shared among all MATOC holders in accordance with the Ordering Procedures outlined in this solicitation. Values provided under the Contract Line Item Numbers represent the estimated capacity only and the Government reserves the unilateral right to move capacity between CLINs and performance periods as necessary.

Section B within this solicitation will remain blank and will be completed in its entirety at time of contract award by the Contracting Officer.

A.7 SELECTION OF BASE MATOC: This solicitation will be evaluated under the Two Phase Design Build Process of FAR subpart 36.3. In Phase 1, interested firms or joint venture entities (referred to as “offerors”) may submit proposals describing specific performance capability and experience relative to successful renovation of occupied medical facilities, demonstrating capability to successfully execute the design-build construction IDIQ contract resulting from this solicitation. The Government will evaluate the performance capability proposals in accordance with the criteria described in the solicitation and intends to select a target of eighteen offerors to compete for the contract in Phase 2 of the process. However, the Government reserves the right to select more, less, or none at all.

In Phase 2, the selected offerors will submit technical design proposals for a sample task order, a schedule and a price proposal. The scope of the sample project will be in the general arena of the MRR effort. More information regarding the types of requirements that the sample may involve can be found in the Division 01 Specifications. The typical MRR task order is valued at $5,000,000.00, with orders historically ranging from $35,000.00 to $45,000,000.00. The Government will evaluate the Phase 2 proposals, in accordance with the criteria described for Phase 2 in the solicitation, and award the contract to the responsible offerors, whose proposal conforms with all the material terms and conditions of the solicitation and whose proposal is determined to represent the overall best value to the Government, considering the evaluation criteria identified in this solicitation.

A.8 CONTRACT ORDERING: Task orders will be awarded against the basic MATOC contracts using the fair opportunity procedures discussed in FAR 16.5 and DFARS 216.5, in addition to the competitive source selection procedures identified in DFARS 216.505-70. Each order exceeding $2,000.00 will be awarded on a competitive basis in accordance with FAR 16.505 and DFARS 216.505, unless an exception described in FAR 16.505(b)(2) or DFARS 216.505(b)(2) applies. If an exception applies, the rationale for the decision will be documented IAW FAR 16.505(b)(2)(ii).

Task orders will be negotiated and awarded against the base MATOC on an as-needed basis once requirements arise. The MATOC awardees will compete against each other for task order awards after the Government has determined if the task order is appropriate to be reserved for competition amongst 8(a) contractors or small business contractors. For OCONUS task orders, the contracting officer may review small business opportunities after consideration of applicable Status of Forces Agreement (SOFA) or other international agreements. In making the determination of whether to reserve the task order award, the Government will conduct a rule of two analysis to determine if there are two or more 8(a) contractors capable of performing the work, and if so, the work will be set-aside for the 8(a) reserve. If not, the Government will determine if there are two or more small business contractors capable of performing the work, and if so, the work will be set-aside for the small business reserve, which also includes the 8(a) contractors. If not, then the work will be offered to all MATOC holders.

FAR 52.219-14, Limitations on Subcontracting, is only applicable for task orders that are reserved for competition amongst 8(a) contractors or small business contractors.

The unique selection criteria for each task order award will be provided in the task order request for proposal.

However, the typical evaluation criteria utilized at the task order level are: 1) technical approach, 2) schedule, 3) experience, and 4) price/price related factors and others as determined necessary. The evaluation will be provided in strict accordance with the selection criteria identified in the request for proposal documents and documented in accordance with local policy and procedures.

A.9 WAGE DETERMINATIONS: Wage Rate Requirements (Construction), formerly known as the Davis-Bacon Act, is implemented IAW FAR 52.222-6 – Construction Wage Rate Requirements. The wage determination for the geographic area where the awarded work is to be performed will be incorporated in individual task orders. A copy of the determination is available at https://www.SAM.gov. The labor rates in effect at the time a task order is awarded will remain in effect through completion of the project, unless modified due to an increase in the Department of Labor wage rates.

A.10 MINIMUM GUARANTEE: The Government’s minimum guarantee of $3,000.00 extends throughout the period of performance of the MATOC. Funding for this minimum guarantee will be obligated on the first task order, issued at the time of base contract award. This is the minimum ordering amount, not a minimum payment.

Payment under the subsequent task order award(s) in an amount meeting/exceeding the minimum guarantee satisfies the minimum guarantee. The initial task order may then be deobligated and closed.

A.11 CONTRACT ON-RAMPS/OFF-RAMPS: In an effort to increase competition, the Contracting Officer may employ on-ramps and off-ramps. See Section 00 73 00, Paragraph 1.13 for additional details.

A.12 SYSTEM OF AWARD MANAGEMENT (SAM): Competition for inclusion in the MATOC pool will be sought, promoted, and sustained by querying the SAM, synopsizing proposed actions, and posting the solicitation in the Government-wide point of entry website (https://www.sam.gov/). Offerors must be registered in System for Award Management (SAM) to be eligible for award. See FAR 52.204-7.

The Government will retrieve Representations and Certifications from SAM once proposals are received.

A.13 CONTRACT AUTHORIZATION: The only authorized ordering office is the U.S. Army Engineering and Support Center, Huntsville, Alabama. Other agencies may be delegated this authority, in which case, an advance written notice will be given to the contractor. In addition to, or in lieu of mailing an order, the Contracting Officer may issue an order orally, by facsimile or by electronic commerce methods, at his/her discretion. Only a warranted Contracting Officer acting within their delegated limits, has the authority to issue modifications or otherwise change the terms and conditions of this contract. If an individual other than the Contracting Officer attempts to make changes to the terms and conditions of this contract you shall not proceed with the change and shall immediately notify the Contracting Officer.

A.14 SF-1442 BLOCKS 11 and 12: The date on which performance will start for each task order will be determined with each task order. Offerors will be required to obtain performance and payment bonds in accordance with FAR 28.102 on a task order basis.

A.15 SF-1442 BLOCK 13B: See Section 00 21 00, Paragraph 1.16 for Bid Guarantee requirement. See also Section 00 21 00, Contract Clause 52.228-1, Bid Guarantee, and Section 00 72 00, Contract Clause 52.236-1, Performance of Work by the Contractor.
