NOTICE TO BIDDERS

A-iii

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.

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-14.
