1. To assure timely and equitable evaluation of proposals, Offerors must follow the instructions contained herein. Offerors are required to meet the Request for Proposal (RFP) requirements, including terms and conditions, representations and certifications, and requirements as defined in the specifications and drawings. Failure to meet a requirement may result in an offer being ineligible for award. Offerors must clearly identify any exception to the RFP terms and conditions and provide complete accompanying rationale. The response shall consist of three (3) separate parts; Volume I - Price Proposal, Volume II - Past Performance Information, and Volume III - Past Performance References. For all volumes you must submit an original and two (2) hard paper copies and also place all Volumes on a Compact Disc (CD).

Offerors are cautioned to follow the detailed instructions fully and carefully, as the Government intends to make an award based on the initial offers received, without discussion of such offers.

In proposal volumes, follow the quantity and page limits as follows:

Volume Copies Page Limits Volume I – Price Proposal Original + (2) copies No page limit

Financial Responsibility Original + (2) copies No page limit Questionnaires (Appendix C)

Amendments (if any) Original + (2) copies No page limit

NOTE 1. Provide the form at Appendix A of not more than five (5) references of the most relevant contracts performed for federal agencies and commercial customers within the last three (3) years as part of Volume III. If the Offeror is a Joint Venture or utilizing significant subcontractors, in addition to the five

(5) references for the prime, the Offeror may provide up to five (5) additional references for the Joint Venture or each significant subcontractor. In addition, the Offeror is responsible for providing the Government the completed Appendix B questionnaires provided back to the Offeror by their references as part of Volume III.

NOTE 2. Joint ventures are considered as affiliated and controlling or having the power to control each other with regard to performance of the contract.

NOTE 3. A significant subcontractor is defined as a contractor who performs 25% or more of the aggregate of the entire project.

2. Proposal Organization: The paper files will be checked to determine the number of pages and compliance with proposal instructions. Those pages in excess of the limit of Volume II will be removed from the back and returned by the PCO to ensure they are not evaluated. The Government will not keep any pages in excess of the limit. If Evaluation Notices (EN’s) are required, page limits may be placed on any responses. Any page limits for responses to ENs will be identified in the letter forwarding the ENs to you. Excess pages submitted in response to EN’s will be removed in the same manner as above by the

PCO.

3. Format for all proposal Volumes shall be as follows:

i. Proposals shall be neat, indexed (cross-indexed as appropriate) and assembled in an orderly manner.

ii. Page Set-Up/Font Size/Lines on Page: Only 8 ½ x 11 inch, portrait format pages are acceptable for text-oriented material. Landscape (8 ½ x 11 inch) pages are permitted for charts or graphs.

Font size shall be 12 point with proportional spacing permitted. Type size for figures and tables must be no smaller than 8-point with proportional spacing permitted.

Include: RFP number, Volume and/or subdirectory title and page number in the margin on the upper right of all pages. Single spacing may be used for figures and tables. Company name and proprietary information notices shall be placed on top and/or bottom margins. Use single column formatting only; multi-column formatting is not allowed. Graphics are allowed in either color or black and white with an 8-point minimum on embedded text except where data is only being used as a sample and readability is not intended. Proposals shall not be supplemented by a package or supplemented by reference documents. Elaborate formats, bindings or color presentations are not desired or required.

iii. Page Definition: A page is defined as one face of a sheet of paper containing information.

iv. Page Numbering: Pages in each volume must be numbered sequentially and consecutively.

The cover page, table of contents, list(s) of tables and drawings, and blank pages are excluded from the page count.

v. Text and graphics portions of the electronic copies shall be in a format readable by Microsoft (MS) Word 2003 or higher or Adobe PDF. Data submitted in spreadsheet format shall be readable by MS Excel 2003 or higher. In case of conflict between the paper copy and the electronic copy of the proposals submitted, the paper copy shall take precedence. Offerors are cautioned to follow the detailed instructions fully and carefully, as the Government intends to make an award based on the initial offers received, without discussion of such offers.

vi. It is preferred that the volumes are not submitted in hard cover binders or spiral bound.

4. Specific Instructions for Volume I – PRICE PROPOSAL

i. Complete blocks 14 (to include CAGE Code), 15, 16, 17, 19 (if applicable), and 20A-C of the Standard Form (SF) 1442, Solicitation, Offer, and Award. An authorized official of the firm must sign and date the SF 1442 in Blocks 20A-C. In doing so, the Offeror accedes to the contract terms and conditions as written in the RFP Sections A through J. These sections constitute the model contract.

ii. Insert proposed unit prices in Section B for each Contract Line Item Number (CLIN). An Offeror’s proposed prices will be determined by multiplying the quantities identified in Section B by the proposed unit Price for each CLIN to confirm the extended amount for each. The extended amounts will be added together to determine the Offeror’s Total Evaluated Price (TEP).

iii. Complete the necessary fill-ins and certifications in Sections I through K. Section K shall be returned in its entirety with your Price proposal. For Sections C through I, the Offeror shall submit only those pages that require a fill-in. The Offeror’s online Representations and Certifications record must be current, accurate and complete within the System for Award Management (SAM). For additional information, reference https://www.sam.gov/portal/public/SAM/.

iv. In accordance with block 13 of the SF 1442, a Bid Guarantee is required (See contract clause 52.228-1). The Bid Guarantee shall be 20% of the offered amount and must accompany the proposal submission.

v. Submission of the financial questionnaire is required to be submitted by the Offeror on the Appendix C form(s) in regards to having, or having the ability to obtain, adequate financial resources to cover the contract. The Appendix C form shall be completed by the Offeror's main financial banking institution, and may be completed for the Offeror's suppliers and/or from other businesses having financial affairs with the Offeror. This information is to guide the Contracting Officer in determining whether or not the Offeror has the necessary financial resources to perform the contract or has the ability to obtain them prior to award in accordance with FAR 9.104-1(a).

Information submitted on Appendix C form(s) is not a technical factor and will not be evaluated.

Rather, this information is required by the FAR in order to be eligible for award and is submitted in advance to expedite the Contracting Officer's determination of Offeror responsibility prior to contract award. Please submit the advanced copy of Appendix C via email to jonathan.esquivel.2@us.af.mil and courtesy copy (CC) karen.wagner.1@us.af.mil no later than (NLT) 1600 on 24 September 2014.

vi. The Procuring Contracting Officer (PCO) has determined there is a high probability of adequate price competition in this acquisition. Upon examination of the initial offers, the Contracting Officer will review this determination and if, in the Contracting Officer’s opinion, adequate price competition exists no additional cost information will be requested and certification under FAR 15.406-2 will not be required. However, if at any time during this competition the PCO determines that adequate price competition no longer exists; Offerors may be required to submit information to the extent necessary for the PCO to determine the reasonableness and affordability of the Price. In accordance with FAR 15.403-1(b) and 15.403-3(a), data other than cost or pricing data may be required to support price reasonableness and realism. Data shall be provided in accordance with FAR 15.403-5. If, after receipt of proposals, the PCO determines that there is insufficient information available to determine price reasonableness and none of the exceptions in FAR 15.403-1 apply, the Offeror shall be required to submit certified cost or pricing data. Should adequate price competition not exist after receipt of proposals, the provisions of FAR Part 15.403-4 shall apply, and the Offeror will be asked to provide certification of cost or pricing data.

5. Specific Instructions for Volume II – PAST PERFORMANCE PROPOSAL

Only information for same or similar type contracts as defined in the relevant definition in paragraph 5ii are desired. This includes Past Performance for major subcontractor who performed 25% of the aggregate of the project. Provide any information available (i.e. descriptive language, letters, metrics, customer surveys, independent surveys, etc.) which demonstrates customer satisfaction with overall job performance and quality of completed projects for same or similar type contracts completed within the last three years as well as current projects nearing completion. In addition, explain corrective actions taken in the past, if any, for substandard performance and any current performance problems such as extended performance periods, numerous warranty calls, etc. Provide comments regarding any known performance deemed unacceptable to the customer, or not in accordance with the contract terms and conditions. If applicable, provide a letter from all subcontractors that will perform major or critical aspects of the requirement, consenting to the release of their Past Performance information to the prime Offeror. Past Performance regarding predecessor companies, key personnel who have recent and relevant experience, or subcontractors that will perform major or critical aspects of the requirement WILL NOT be rated as highly as Past Performance information for the principal Offeror.

RECENT AND RELEVANT INFORMATION For the purpose of this RFP, recent and relevant Past Performance is defined as:

i. RECENT – Ongoing contracts with a performance history, and contracts completed or near completion within three (3) years from the issue date of this RFP (see SF 1442, Block 3).

ii. RELEVANT – Performance of construction work which is the same or similar in scope, magnitude, trade, and complexity, as described in the RFP, including the specifications and drawings, contract type, contract environment, subcontractor interaction, and Price. Relevant contracts include experience as a prime contractor and/or Joint Ventures or Significant Subcontractor expertise in the area of construction activities with a focus on tall steel structures (tall structures are considered structures above three stories), variable height buildings, and concrete foundations that include pumping and vibration around rebar mats as well as experience with anchor bolts.

The Government may also use other information available that is determined relevant to this effort, such as, but not limited to, the Construction Contractor Appraisal Support System (CCASS) or the Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS). Recent and relevant contracts include contracts that meet the recent and relevancy definitions detailed below.

iii. Teaming Arrangement or Joint Venture: If the Offeror intends to fulfill the requirements of this RFP in a teaming arrangement or joint venture, the Offeror must provide complete information as to the arrangement, including a list of any relevant and recent past/present performance information on previous teaming arrangements or joint ventures with the same teaming or joint venture partner.

Please reference Note 1 above for rating information.

7. Additional Instructions

i. Deviations. Deviations from these instructions will be reviewed by the Contracting Officer to ensure that no Offeror receives a competitive advantage. Deviations resulting in a competitive advantage for an Offeror will result in the proposal being determined noncompliant with the RFP requirements.
