1.3. The contracting office will issue a request for proposal (TOPR) and the resulting task orders to the Contractor for accomplishing the identified work. The Contractor shall be required to furnish all equipment, materials, and personnel necessary to complete designs, accomplish construction, and manage the task orders in the time period and to the quality required in the contract.

1.4. The Contractor shall prepare a proposal to include a complete Statement of Work (SOW), construction drawings (if applicable), schedules, and cost estimate. The applicable construction standards in Section 38 shall be used as the minimum standard for building code compliance, quality and general requirements applicable to every project. In preparing the proposal, the Contractor shall research existing record drawings and independently conduct as many site visits as necessary to have a satisfactory knowledge of the site conditions that can affect the work or its cost.

1.5. Work will require expertise in various construction trades to include, but not limited to: carpentry, road repair, roofing, excavation, interior renovation, electrical, plumbing, HVAC, sheet metal, welding, painting, demolition, concrete masonry, asbestos and lead based paint surveys and abatement, and soil remediation.

1.6. Upon issuance of a task order, the Contractor will diligently complete all work within the time frames specified in the task order and approved progress schedules. The Contractor shall perform all necessary quality control functions to ensure the work is executed in compliance with the terms of the task order and this contract.

2. DEFINITIONS:

2.1. The following definitions apply to all work required by this solicitation and the resulting contract:

2.2. As-Built Drawings: Final site drawings prepared by the Contractor in sufficient detail to accurately reflect the project as fully constructed, complete with all changes, modifications, and deletions from prior award drawings. As-Builts will not be required on most projects under this IDIQ. See Section 18 for more information.

2.3. Concept Drawing: Project concept drawings are basic drawings containing sufficient detail to convey the main features of a project.

2.4. Construction Cost Proposal: A detailed construction cost proposal shall be prepared for each task order showing each division of work, line items under the division, quantity and cost. The cost proposal shall be accomplished by the Contractor from approved drawings and/or the Government-provided Statement of Need (SON).

2.5. Controlled Areas: See Restricted Work Areas, Section 2.21 below.

3.1. Standard Working Hours: The Contractor shall generally be prepared to pursue contracted tasks during the standard working period of 0700 to 1700 hours (7:00 a.m. to 5 p.m.), Monday through Friday, excluding federal holidays. The Contractor may elect to work hours other than standard duty hours provided that:

3.1.1. The request is submitted in writing at least three (3) workdays in advance.

3.1.2. The Contracting Officer approves the request.

3.1.3. Work performed outside standard working hours or on weekends or federal holidays that the Contractor chooses to perform during non-standard hours will be considered and charged as standard hours.

3.2. Non-Standard Working Hours: Work required by the Government at other than standard duty hours will be considered nonstandard working hours, that is, Monday through Friday from 1700 to 0700 hours, Saturdays, Sundays, and federal holidays.

4. CONTRACT START-UP AND COMPLETION PERIOD:

4.1. The contractor’s proposal will determine the time period reasonably necessary to perform all elements of the Task Order to include materials and labor.

4.2. Although the Government may issue task orders against this contract through the final date of the contract period of performance, the Contractor must physically complete all work outlined in any task order within 120 days after the date of contract end.

4.3. The Contractor is required to vacate any and all areas provided to him, including any office areas and individual work sites or storage yards, and remove all Contractor-owned equipment, within three (3) days of the conclusion of the final task order issued under this contract, whether by termination or natural completion, or within (14) calendar days of being notified in writing by the Contracting Officer at any other period during performance.

4.4. After the contract completion period, within 7 days, the Government will conduct a walkthrough of the Contractor’s formerly occupied areas. Any discrepancies, damages, and required cleanup will be notified to the Contractor in writing. The Contractor will have 48 hours to resolve the notification(s) from the Government. If the Contractor fails to resolve adequate cleanup or repair of damages, the cost for identified items may be completed by the Government or services procured from a third party, and charges billed to the Contractor.

5. CONTRACTOR-PROVIDED MATERIALS:

5.1. All Contractor-provided materials shall become the sole property of the Government.

5.2. Software Programs, Licenses, and Upgrades: Any software, licenses, manuals, or system upgrades as a result of construction on Beale AFB shall become sole property of the Government.

6. TASK ORDER PROCEDURES:

6.1. As the need exists for performance under the terms of this contract, the Contracting Officer (CO) will notify the Contractor of a potential performance requirement.

6.2. 9 CES will submit a project package to the Contracting Officer including a Statement of Need (SON) and AF Form 813 (Request for Environmental Impact Analysis), among other documents. The CO will then forward the Contractor a Task Order Proposal Request (TOPR).

6.2.1. If the project incorporates any additional project items as optional CLINs, the SON will describe the anticipated details of that aspect of performance including performance period, consideration of mobilization and/or demobilization activities, progressive flow of construction activities, and the impact of additional performance on the task order (TO) as a whole.

6.2.2. The Contractor may be requested to provide cost and technical proposals or designs within the last quarter of the fiscal year in anticipation of fall out funds (money which is not yet obligated by the Government, but which is expected to become available prior to fiscal year end). In anticipation of this potential work, and the fast turnaround required at fiscal year-end to secure funds should they become available, the Contractor may be asked to provide a cost and technical proposal at no liability to the Government to award the project. In this instance the Contractor will complete a Hold Harmless Agreement prior to their proposal preparation. Please see Attachment 1 for a Sample Hold Harmless Agreement.

6.3. Upon receipt of an TOPR, the Contractor shall respond to the needs of the Government by scheduling a site visit through the CO within the timeline designated in the TOPR, generally three (3) or five (5) days from issuance of the TOPR. The site visit will be conducted in the company of the Contractor, contracting personnel, the end user or facility manager, and 9 CES at the proposed work site. If specific disciplines are needed at the meeting, other base agencies (fire department, safety, communications, etc.) may also be invited to attend.

6.4. Proposals will be evaluated on the basis of Lowest Price, Technically Acceptable methodology. Initially all proposals will be arranged by price. The lowest priced offeror will be reviewed for Technical Acceptability. Material, Labor, and the Scope of Work/SOW will be evaluated to ensure the contractor understands the work, has furnished an effective approach, and is line with the pricing. If the lowest priced is technically acceptable, award may be made to that offeror.

6.5. Note: Any reference to any equipment, material, article or patented process by trade name, make or catalog number requested by the Government shall be regarded as establishing a standard of quality only.

6.6. Contractor will submit questions regarding the project in writing to the CO.

6.7. An amendment to the TOPR will be issued by the CO incorporating any changes to the Scope of Work as determined during the site visit, or as a result of other Contractor questions.

6.8. Upon establishment of the final scope of the individual requirement, the Contractor shall then prepare a proposal package for submission to the Contracting Officer through the contract administrator. See Section 10 for additional instructions on compiling proposal packages.

6.9. The Contractor shall accomplish their proposal package and return it to the Contracting Officer by the suspense date reflected on the Request for Proposal. The suspense date will be determined by the CO based on the magnitude, complexity, and urgency of the project; generally a suspense date of five (5) workdays after the site visit will be determined, taking these factors into consideration. The Contractor shall have enough staff to ensure proposals are completed within the established suspense dates.

6.10. The CO will then forward the proposal to the 9 CES for review. Upon receipt of the Contractor’s proposal, the Government will accomplish a technical evaluation of the proposal. If 9 CES has questions about the Contractor’s proposal, the Contract Administrator may call a fact-finding meeting in order to clarify Government questions and misunderstandings.

6.11. A fact finding and negotiation meeting may be scheduled by the contracting office to discuss and negotiate all variances in quantities, hours, start date, and performance times with the Contractor. 9 CES personnel may also be in attendance if requested by the CO.

6.12. The Contractor will provide a final cost estimate, technical proposal, and Statement of Work (SOW) based on the negotiated terms. The Contractor’s final submittal will be reviewed and approved by 9 CES.

6.13. The finalized price for the proposed project will remain valid for ninety (90) calendar days, unless otherwise negotiated with the Contracting Officer.

6.14. The Contracting Officer will issue a task order against the contract using DD Form 1155 and will distribute the award to all parties. Construction performance will be based on the Contractor’s proposed construction schedule, in coordination with the end users requirements.

6.15. Typically, the work will not be complex and will not require a pre-construction meeting, bonding, a Contract Progress Schedule, or a contract progress report. However, when required, the Contractor, subcontractors, contracting, 9 CES, building manager, and other pertinent base officials (i.e. Safety, Security Forces, Communications) will have a pre-construction meeting to discuss specific issues for the task order. At this meeting the Contractor will provide a construction schedule and timelines on an AF 3064 (Contract Progress Schedule, Attachment 2), if the period of performance is expected to exceed 60 days; Performance and Payment Bonds, as required; an SF 1413 (Statement and Acknowledgment, Attachment 3) for all tier levels of subcontractors needed for project completion; an AF 3000 (Material Approval Submittal, Attachment 4) for any known proposed materials; and any other documents as requested by the CO.

6.16. Actual construction on the site will not occur until an AF Form 103 (Base Civil Engineering Work Clearance Request) has been completed and the CO has approved the proposed start date.

6.17. If required by the SOW or SON, the Contractor will provide bi-weekly progress reports using AF 3065 (Contract Progress Report; Attachment 5), until project completion.

6.18. The Contractor may request a pre-final inspection for the purpose of having the Government assist in identifying potential problems or areas of correction required prior to the final inspection. The Contractor will request the pre-final inspection from the Contracting Officer and a date will be scheduled by the contracting office. Pre-final inspections will typically include the Contracting Officer and Contracting Administrator, 9 CES, Contractor personnel (to include subcontractors), requirements/end user personnel, operations and maintenance personnel, and representatives throughout the installation (fire, safety, security, etc.), as needed.

6.19. The Contractor will request a final inspection from the Contracting Officer three (3) working days prior to the desired date of inspection. The final inspection will typically include 9 CES, the Contractor, the CO, the CA and other base entities as needed. More information regarding final inspections is included in Section 14. 9 CES will have seven (7) working days to inspect the final work and establish acceptance or communicate discrepancies.
