Determine the Bid Total by adding the amounts of the several items, and show in the block provided on Page B-4 for Schedule A, Page B-6 for Schedule B, Page B-9 for Option 1, and Page B-11 for Option 2. In case of multiplication errors, the Amount Bid for the item will be based on the Unit Bid Price.

To be eligible for award, bidders must submit prices for each pay item.

Review Subsection 109.05 of the FP regarding scope of payment for direct and indirect payment work.

SCHEDULES OF WORK

The Bid Schedule is comprised of the following separate schedules and options of work:

Base Contract – Phase 1 (Schedule A) – Resurfacing Bluff Lake Road (± 3.88 miles) and Brooksville-Louisville Road (± 3.74 mi).

Base Contract – Phase 2 (Schedule B) – Rehabilitation Brooksville-Louisville Road (± 1.38 mi).

Government Option 1 – Rehabilitation Brooksville-Louisville Road (± 4.02 mi).

Government Option 2 – Resurfacing Section Line Road (± 5.20 mi).

The Government will award the project as a Base Contract (Schedules A (Phase I) and B (Phase II)) with the option to award any, all, or no combinations of the Government Option(s) (1 and 2); see FAR Clauses 52.217-4 and 52.217-5.

The purpose of the multiple schedules and options is to give the Government maximum flexibility in completing the project in a timely manner and at a cost-effective price, by proper utilization of available funds and upon receipt of all required funding. If complete funding is in place at the time of award of the Base Contract (Schedules A (phase I) and B (Phase II)), the Government may award all or any combination of the Government Option(s) (1 and 2) at that time.

If funding for the Government Option(s) is received after award of the Base Contract, the Government has the right to exercise the Government Option(s) at the unit prices bid according to the following schedule:

Government Option 1: No later than 45 calendar days prior to the contract performance period completion date of the Base Contract (Schedules A and B).

Government Option 2: No later than 45 calendar days prior to the contract performance period completion date of the Base Contract (Schedules A and B).

BIDDING OF CALENDAR DAYS

For each schedule or option of work shown on the Bid Summary page(s), determine the number of calendar days necessary to complete that schedule or option of work from Notice To Proceed of that schedule or option of work to the completion of that schedule or option of work. Specify the number of calendar days (NOT to exceed the maximum number of calendar days shown in Block 11 of the SF-1442) in the space provided on the Bid Summary page(s).

Failure to specify a number of calendar days for contract completion indicates the bidder accepts the maximum contract time provided in Block 11 of the SF-1442.

In developing a construction schedule to determine the number of calendar days included in their bid, bidders should consider and include any work limitations shown in Sections 108 and 156 of the FP and Special Contract Requirements (SCR’s). Specific work limitations may be (but are not limited to): National legal holidays, weekends, rush hours, night work, specified no work periods, work or traffic control phasing, etc. Bidders are advised to consider those work items that are weather sensitive and when those work items will be performed. Specific work items are (but not limited to): those that require a minimum ambient air temperature (asphalt paving and surface treatment, pavement striping, stone masonry, etc); those that require maintaining a minimum surface temperature (concrete pavement, structural concrete, painting, etc); and those that have specific planting seasons (turf establishment, sod, trees, plants, etc). Bidders are also advised to consider time required for preparing material and drawing submittals, and the allowable Government review times for those submittals (Subsection 104.03 of the FP and SCR’s). The total calendar days bid should also include any work limitations and any delay days or Contractor/supplier winter shutdowns required due to weather sensitive work items.

When evaluating the bids, the Government will consider the Contract Administrative Cost for the project to be $2,200 per calendar day bid. The Contract Administrative Cost is only used to determine the Evaluation Total Price of Project.

For the purposes of calculating calendar days, bidders are to assume the following:

Base Contract – Phase 1 (Schedule A)

- Notice To Proceed will be issued with an effective starting date of on or about July 20, 2009.

Base Contract – Phase 2 (Schedule B)

- Notice To Proceed will be issued with an effective starting date of on or about April 1, 2010.

Government Option 1 - Notice To Proceed will be issued no later than 30 calendar days prior to the contract performance period completion date of the Base Contract (Schedules A (Phase I) and B (Phase II)).

Government Option 2 - Notice To Proceed will be issued with an effective starting date of on or after June 2, 2010.

See Subsection 108.01 of the SCR’s for additional details.

Add the Bid Total(s) and the Contract Administrative Cost(s) for each schedule or option of work as directed on the Bid Summary page(s). Show the Evaluation Total Price of Project in the space provided on the Bid Summary page(s).

BASIS FOR AWARD

The contract will be awarded to the responsive, responsible bidder with the lowest Evaluation Total Price of Project, which is defined as:

Bid Total of Base Contract Phase 1 (Schedule A) + Contract Administrative Cost of Base Contract Phase 1 (Schedule A) + Bid Total of Base Contract Phase 2 (Schedule B) + Contract Administrative Cost of Base Contract Phase 2 (Schedule B) + Bid Total of Government Option 1 + Contract Administrative Cost of Government Option 1 + Bid Total of Government Option 2 + Contract Administrative Cost of Government Option 2.

The number of calendar days specified by the successful bidder for the completion of the awarded combination of the Base Contract (Schedule A (Phase I) and B (Phase II)) and Government Option(s) will become the performance period for the contract.

If the Government Option(s) are exercised after the award of the Base Contract (Schedule A and B), the number of calendar days specified by the successful bidder for that Government Option(s) will become the performance period for that Government Option(s).

NOTE: Contract Administration Cost is used for evaluation and ranking purposes only.
