NOTED ABOVE FOR ALL CHANGES TO THE SOLICITATION AND ACTING ON SAID

CHANGES.

SELECTED DBE PROGRAM PROVISIONS FOR THE VIRGIN ISLANDS –

DISADVANTAGED BUSINESS ENTERPRISE (DBE) PARTICIPATION IN USDOT

ASSISTED CONTRACTS (EFLHD – ADMINISTERED CONTRACTS)

POLICY:

It is the policy of the United States that small business concerns, including small disadvantaged business concerns, shall have the maximum practicable opportunity to participate in performing contracts. It is further the policy of the United States that its prime contractors establish procedures to ensure the timely payment of amounts due pursuant to the terms of their subcontracts with small business concerns, including small disadvantaged business concerns.

The Contractor hereby agrees, by signature on this Contract, to carry out this policy in the awarding of subcontracts to the fullest extent consistent with efficient contract performance. The Contractor further agrees to cooperate in any studies or surveys as may be conducted by the United States Small Business Administration, the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), or the Virgin Islands, as may be necessary to determine the extent of the Contractor’s compliance with this policy.

DBE PARTICIPATION/CONTRACT GOAL AND GOOD FAITH EFFORTS:

For purposes of this Contract, the DBE subcontracting goal is 25 percent of the total contract amount, as determined by the Virgin Islands Department of Public Works with the concurrence of the Contracting Officer When the contract goal DBE participation is zero percent (0%), the contractor, if not an approved DBE, must still submit a small business subcontracting plan prior to award identifying all DBE’s which the contractor intends to use on the project.

This Contract will be awarded only to the low responsive and responsible bidder who meets this goal or who demonstrates good faith efforts to do so. Failure to make a good faith effort is defined as willful or intentional failure to perform in accordance with the requirements of this Contract, or willful or intentional action to frustrate the achievement of the Subcontracting Plan, if applicable.

Guidance on what constitutes good faith efforts is described in the Virgin Islands Department of Public Works’ (VIDPW) approved DBE Program. Copies of the program can be obtained from the VIDPW’s DBE Program Coordinator.

TERMINATION / SUBSTITUTION / REPLACEMENT OF LISTED DBE FIRMS:

The Prime contractor may not terminate for convenience a DBE subcontractor without the Contracting Officer’s prior written consent. The prime contractor will be expected to identify an acceptable certified DBE subcontractor replacement in that event, or demonstrate good faith efforts to do so. This restriction does not prohibit termination for default or for failure to perform adequately. If a DBE subcontractor is unwilling or unable to perform the work of the commitment made to the prime contractor, the prime contractor shall immediately notify in writing the Contracting Officer, and request to be relieved of the commitment to use the named DBE.

COUNTING DBE PARTICIPATION:

When a DBE participates in a contract, only the value of the work actually performed by the DBE will be counted toward performance of the goal. The entire amount of that portion of a construction contract or other contract that is performed by the DBE’s own forces will be credited. Included are the costs of supplies and materials obtained by the DBE for the work of the contract (DBE manufacturer 100 percent of the cost of the materials or supplies may be counted & DBE regular dealer 60 percent of the cost of the materials or supplies), including supplies purchased or equipment leased by the DBE (except supplies and equipment the DBE subcontractor purchases or leases from the prime contractor or its affiliate). Credit will be allowed for the entire amount of fees or commissions charged by a DBE firm for providing a bona fide service, such as professional, technical, consultant, or managerial services, or for providing bonds or insurance specifically required for the performance of a USDOT-assisted contract. Credit will be allowed for fees considered reasonable and not excessive as compared with fees customarily allowed for similar services.

Credit to a DBE contractor will be allowed only if the DBE is performing a commercially useful function on the contract. A DBE performs a commercially useful function when it is responsible for execution of the work of the contract and is carrying out its responsibilities by actually performing, managing, and supervising the work involved.

When a DBE subcontracts part of the work of its contract to another firm, the value of the subcontracted work may be counted only if the DBE’s subcontractor is itself a certified DBE. Work that a DBE subcontracts to a non-DBE firm does not count.

When a DBE performs as a participant in a joint venture, credit for a portion of the total dollar value of the contract equal to the distinct, clearly defined portion of the work of the contract that the DBE performs with its own forces will be allowed.

The Prime Contractor may not count the participation of a DBE subcontractor toward its DBE achievements or the overall goal until the amount being counted toward the goal has been paid to the

DBE.

PROMPT PAYMENT:

This Contract includes Prompt Payment for Construction Contracts, which requires payment to the subcontractor for satisfactory performance under its subcontract not later than 7 days from receipt of payment from the United States for work performed by the subcontractor. If retainage is withheld the prime contractor shall be required to release such retainage to subcontractors within thirty (30) calendar days of satisfactory completion, i.e. according to the specifications, of the entire subcontractor’s work.

LIQUIDATED DAMAGES:

If at the completion of the project, the prime contractor has failed to meet the established goal/commitment, or has not demonstrated good faith efforts to do so, the prime contractor shall be assessed liquidated damages for the difference between the established goal/commitment and the actual DBE participation achieved.

RECORD KEEPING REQUIREMENTS:

The Prime Contractor shall keep such records as necessary to ensure compliance with its DBE utilization obligations. The Prime contractor must retain all such records for at least three (3) years after project acceptance by the Contracting Officer following the completion of the contract. These records shall be available for inspection by the Virgin Islands Department of Public Works, the

FHWA, the USDOT, or other appropriately sanctioned Virgin Islands State Agencies or Federal Agencies or Departments, to determine the Prime Contractor’s good faith effort to meet the established DBE subcontracting goal. The prime contractor’s DBE liaison officer or designee shall complete the top half of Form A-644, Monthly Contractor DBE Participation, and submit the form or its facsimile to the VIDPW’s DBE Program Coordinator and the Contracting Officer monthly.

COMPLIANCE PROCEDURES:

Whenever it appears that the Prime Contractor or any subcontractor or supplier may not be operating in compliance with the terms, conditions or requirements of this Contract, including but not limited to, encouraging fronting, brokering or the circumstance of a DBE not performing a commercially useful function as defined, an investigation will be conducted. If it is found that the contractor or any subcontractor or supplier is not in compliance with these Special Provisions, the party in non-compliance will be notified in writing.

If the deficiencies are not corrected, the Contracting Officer reserves the right to initiate administrative action against the party or parties in non-compliance, which may include but not be limited to:

1. Termination of the contract for Default, which is a part of this Contract.

2. Withholding an appropriate percentage of partial payments pursuant to Section 109 of the

Standard Specifications for Highway and Bridge Construction. This appropriate percentage may be the amount of any proposed monetary sanction.

3. Initiation of appropriate debarment proceedings.

4. Referral of any unlawful actions to the appropriate enforcement agencies.

5. Other actions as appropriate, at the discretion of the Contracting Officer.

BID SCHEDULE INSTRUCTIONS

PROJECT: CT VI-0A30(035) C3

BIDDERS PLEASE NOTE: Before preparing the bid, carefully read the Instructions to

Bidders. While preparing the bid, comply with the following:

COMPLETING THE BID SCHEDULE

Complete the Bid Schedule(s) by handwriting in ink or typing. Specify a Unit Bid Price, in figures with cents to only two decimal places, for each pay item in the Unit Bid Price column for which a quantity is given. Do not enter or tender a Unit Bid Price for any pay item for which no estimated quantity appears in the Bid Schedule. Determine the products of the respective unit prices and quantities, and show them, in figures, in the Amount Bid column. If a Unit Bid Price and Amount Bid have been inserted by the Government for a pay item, do not change the Unit Bid Price and Amount Bid for the pay item. Determine the Bid Total by adding the amounts of the several items, and show in the block provided on Page B-9. 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.

SCHEDULE OF WORK

The Bid Schedule is comprised of the following:

Schedule A – Rehabilitation of approximately 0.23 miles of Long Bay Road (Route 30) from the Lover’s Lane/Veterans Drive intersection to the Centerline Road Extension/Frenchman’s Bay Road intersection.

BIDDING OF CALENDAR DAYS

Determine the number of calendar days necessary to complete Schedule A work from Notice To Proceed to contract completion. 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. Failure to specify a number of calendar days for contract completion indicates the bidder accepts the maximum contract completion 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 $2,700 per calendar day bid. The Contract Administrative Cost is only used to determine the Evaluation Total Price of Project.

Add the Bid Total and the Contract Administrative Cost for Schedule A as directed on the Bid Summary page. Show the Evaluation Total Price of Project in the space provided on the Bid Summary page.

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 Schedule A + Contract Administrative Cost of Schedule A.

The number of calendar days specified by the successful bidder for the completion of Schedule A work will become the performance period for the contract.

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