NOTICE TO BIDDERS

A-i

NOTE TO LARGE BUSINESSES:

Due to the compressed schedule for award of this project following the bid opening, large businesses are required to submit their completed subcontracting plan with their bid. Failure to submit a subcontracting plan may deem your bid non-responsive.

A sample of a subcontracting plan is included as Appendix B in this solicitation.

Prior to development of this subcontracting plan, please read FAR Clause

52.219-9 – Small Business Subcontracting Plan (April 2008).

It is the Prime Contractors responsibility to ensure that all small business concerns included in this subcontracting plan are eligible. The SAM website is the only source for certification of Small Disadvantaged Business and HUBZone Small Business concerns.

Prime Contractors are encouraged to post sources sought notices for subcontracting opportunities on http://web.sba.gov/subnet/ Small businesses can review this web site to identify opportunities in their areas of expertise.

The use of SUB-Net fulfills the requirements set forth in Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 5.206, Notice of Subcontracting Opportunities, for contractors and subcontractors to post notices and thereby increase competition for subcontracts.

ELECTRONIC BIDS WILL NOT BE ACCEPTED. Submit a printed copy of your bid to the address listed on the SF-1442 (Page A-1, Block 8). Please submit the following with your bid:

Have you rechecked your bid figures?

I. PRE-BID INFORMATION

It is the responsibility of the bidder to verify that this solicitation document, including the plans, are complete as listed in the table of contents and the index to sheets. Plan sheets can be found at http://www.cflhd.gov/procurement/construction/advertised-projects.cfm and viewed by individual sections, downloaded by individual sections, or the entire plan set downloaded in a zip file.

Physical data relevant to this solicitation may also be viewed or downloaded at the above site.

This solicitation and subsequent contract are governed by the Federal Acquisition Regulations (FAR), agency supplemental regulations, and the Standard Specifications for Construction of Roads and Bridges on Federal Highway Projects, FP-03 English Units (FP-03).

The FP-03 was utilized for the design of this project. Hard copies of the FP-03 will not be provided to bidders. The FP-03 is available electronically at http://flh.fhwa.dot.gov/resources/pse/standard/ or may be purchased by contacting Bob Rosenblatt at ARC Western, telephone number 303-785- 2520 or email bob.rosenblatt@e-arc.com.

Applicable FAR provisions and clauses in this IFB are incorporated by reference or full text.

FAR provisions and clauses incorporated by reference can be accessed on the Internet at https://www.acquisition.gov/far/ .

Notice of SAM Registration – you must register in the System for Award Management (SAM – replaced CCR) prior to award of a contract resulting from this solicitation. Failure to register prior to contract award may require award to the next successful registered offeror. See FAR Subpart 4.1103©. Register online at www.sam.gov.

Representations and Certifications – This solicitation is issued under NAICS 237310 – Highway, Street & Bridge Construction with a small business size standard of $33.5 million. If your average annual gross receipts for the past 3 years are above $33.5 million, you are a large business for this solicitation. If they are below $33.5 million you are a small business. Please complete the certification listed in paragraph (b) of FAR Provision 52.204-8 Annual Representation and Certifications on Page B-1. Your small business information is pulled into the Online Representations and Certifications Application (ORCA) website from the Central Contractor Registration (CCR). Please include NAICS 237310 in your CCR. Before submitting bids, please ensure you have completed your annual representations and certifications electronically at the ORCA website at http://orca.bpn.gov.

This Solicitation Contains a Price Evaluation Factor - The Government will apply a factor of 10% to an apparent low bid submitted by a large business when we also receive a bid from a certified HUBZone small business concern. The 10% factor does not apply to apparent low bids submitted by small businesses. See FAR Clause 52.219-4 Notice of price evaluation preference for HUBZone small business concerns.

A-iii

In the event this full and open competition results in a contract award to a qualified HUBZone SBC after a price evaluation preference, FAR Clause 52.236-1, Performance of Work by the Contractor does not apply.

§126.700 of the Code of Federal Regulations (Title 13, Part 126, Subpart G), stated below, will replace the performance of work requirements stated in the above mentioned FAR clause. A qualified HUBZone SBC receiving a contract under this solicitation for general construction must spend at least 50% of the cost of the contract incurred for personnel on its own employees or employees of other qualified HUBZone SBCs. This requirement may be met by expending at least 50% of the cost of the contract incurred for personnel on its employees or it may subcontract at least 35% of the cost of the contract performance incurred for personnel to one or more qualified HUBZone SBCs. A qualified HUBZone SBC prime contractor may not, however, subcontract more than 50% of the cost of the contract incurred for personnel to non-qualified HUBZone SBCs.

Bid Guarantee – Follow the requirements of FAR Clause 52.228-1 Bid Guarantee and Subpart

102.03 of the FP-03.

II. Post Award Information.

Subcontracting - FAR Clause 52.219-8, Utilization of Small Business Concerns states that Prime Contractors afford small business concerns, veteran-owned small business concerns, service-disabled veteran-owned small business concerns, HUBZone small business concerns, small disadvantaged business concerns, and women-owned small business concerns the maximum practicable opportunity to participate in performing contracts let by any Federal agency.

FAR Clause 52.219-9, Small Business Subcontracting Plan, Alternate I, requires that the large business concern who is the successful low bidder on a Federal project with an anticipated award amount exceeding $1 million, is required to submit a subcontracting plan prior to contract award. The subcontracting plan expresses goals in terms of percentages of total planned subcontracting dollars for the use of small business, veteran-owned small business, service-disabled veteran-owned small business, HUBZone small business, small disadvantaged business, and women-owned small business concerns as subcontractors. To view and download a sample plan for subcontracting requirements, visit http://www.cflhd.gov/contracting/construction/ReferenceLinks.cfm.

Prime Contractors, who are large businesses, are encouraged to post sources sought notices at the Small Business Administration’s Subcontracting Network (SUB-NET) http://web.sba.gov/subnet/ so that small businesses can identify opportunities in their areas of expertise. The use of SUB-Net fulfills the requirements set forth in Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 5.206, Notice of Subcontracting Opportunities, for contractors and subcontractors to post notices and thereby increase competition for subcontracts. If the apparent successful low bidder fails to submit an acceptable subcontracting plan with their bid package, that bidder may be ineligible for award of the contract.

A list of currently known business concerns owned and controlled by socially and economically disadvantaged individuals and/or women-owned small business concerns that have indicated an interest in participating in highway construction is available at http://www.ccr.gov

Insurance requirements - See Subsection 107.05 of the FP-03.

EEBACS - Contractors shall use the Government’s web-based system, Engineer’s Estimating, Bidding, Award, and Construction System (EEBACS), to prepare all “Inspector’s Daily Record of Construction Operations” (Contractors Daily Reports) and measurement notes (pay notes).

The Contractor shall be required to attend a training session on the use of EEBACS. The training session will require up to 4 hours. No more than 3 Contractor staff may attend the training unless approved by the CO. The Contractor shall be responsible for training additional staff.

The Contractor shall be required to submit a user account form to gain access to the EEBACS system. See Subsection 108.01.

A user guide, “EEBACS for Construction Contractors”, is available. An electronic version can be found at http://flh.fhwa.dot.gov/resources/pse/estimate/guide.htm

Bid Schedule Instructions

BIDDERS, PLEASE NOTE: Before preparing the bid, carefully read the Solicitation Provisions.

This Bid Proposal is comprised of one schedule as follows:

Schedule A – Road reconstruction, bridges, stream improvements, and drainage.

• Insert a numeric unit bid price for each pay item for which a quantity appears in the bid schedule. Unit bid prices should be quoted no more precisely than the nearest cent (2 decimal places). Unit bid prices quoted more precisely will be rounded up to the nearest cent by the Government

• Multiply the unit price by the quantity for each pay item and show the amount bid.

When the words “Lump Sum” appear as a unit bid price, insert an amount for each lump sum pay item.

• Total all amounts bid for each pay item and show the overall total each for each Schedule and Option separately.

NOTE: If the amount bid for a pay item is inconsistent with the product of the unit price provided by the bidder and the quantity provided by the Government, the unit price will govern and the Government will determine a corrected amount bid for the pay item by multiplying the unit price by the quantity.

Evaluation Factors for Award

To be eligible for award of contract, the offeror shall submit prices for each item in Bid Schedule A.

Accordingly, contract award will be made to the lowest responsible bidder conforming to the solicitation.

A-5

Pay Item 15401-0000, Contractor Testing

Bidders must provide prices on two alternative Contractor Testing pay items in two different places in each schedule’s bid tab.

On Page A-6 in Schedule A bidders must provide a price for Contractor Testing using a Contractor-furnished field laboratory. As part of Schedule A the price for this alternative item will be included in the "Schedule A Total" line and, therefore, included in the evaluation for award.

Bidders must also provide a stand-alone price on the bottom of Page A-13 for the alternative item, Contractor Testing using a Government-furnished field laboratory. This price will not be factored into the evaluation for award. The Government retains the discretion to award a contract which includes either of the alternative Contractor Testing items at the respective bid price.

PARTNERING

A Partnership recognizes the Government and the Contractor are both responsible and can affect the successful completion of this project. Partnering is a vehicle to ensure the partnership has structure and quality. It recognizes the strengths of each party and uses those strengths to identify and achieve shared goals. One of the primary objectives of Partnering is to facilitate the resolution of disputes in a timely, professional, and non-adversarial manner with the outcome focused on achieving those shared goals.

CFLHD supports the concepts and tenets of Partnering and as such is encouraging the Contractors and it’s subcontractors to establish a Partnering relationship on this project.

A formal Partnering meeting can help facilitate this relationship by helping do document the parties’ common purpose and goals, and ensuring alignment. The goals are mutually agreed upon and address effective and efficient performance within the scope of the contract.

Participation in a formal Partnering meeting is voluntary. Costs of implementing and maintaining the partnership would be agreed to by both parties as described in Subsection 103.05 Partnering of the FP-03. Costs of partnering would be in addition to the contract award amount.

Please indicate your desire to participate in a formal partnering meeting on this project.

(___) We would like to participate in a formal partnering meeting.

(___) We do not want to participate in a formal partnering meeting.

USE OF RECOVERED MATERIALS ON FEDERAL LANDS HIGHWAY PROJECTS

Section 6002 of the Solid Waste Disposal Act, as amended by the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) of 1976, as amended (42 U.S.C. 6901 et seq.), requires Federal, State, and local procuring agencies using appropriated Federal funds to purchase items composed of the highest percentage of recovered materials practical. Use of recovered materials is strongly encouraged on Federal Lands Highway Projects. Highway construction items covered by the Environmental Protection Agency’s Comprehensive Guidelines for Procurement of Products Containing Recovered Materials include fly ash, ground granulated blast furnace slag, traffic barricades, traffic cones, hydraulic mulch and compost for mulch.

Use of fly ash and ground granulated blast furnace slag and construction materials containing fly ash and ground granulated blast furnace slag on Federal Lands Highway Projects:

It is the policy of the United States Government that fly ash and ground granulated blast furnace slag and materials containing fly ash and ground granulated blast furnace slag shall have maximum practicable opportunity for incorporation into its construction projects.

The Contractor agrees to investigate the use of fly ash and ground granulated blast furnace slag and materials containing fly ash and ground granulated blast furnace slag to the fullest extent consistent with the efficient performance of this contract. Both the contractor and the subcontractors are urged to seek out suppliers of fly ash and ground granulated blast furnace slag, cement and concrete containing fly ash and ground granulated blast furnace slag and to solicit bids for these materials.

Names of firms that supply fly ash and ground granulated blast furnace slag and materials containing fly ash and ground granulated blast furnace slag are available from the American Coal Ash Association and the National Slag Association.
