STATEMENT OF WORK (SOW)
Design Build, Bid Build Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) Multiple Award Construction Contract (MACC)
MOUNTAIN HOMEAIR FORCE BASE (MHAFB), AIR COMBAT COMMAND (ACC)
13 March 2019
1. PURPOSE AND SCOPE: The required work to be performed by the Contractor consists of, but is not limited to, design-build construction of a broad range of maintenance, repair, minor construction/alteration and renovation work on real property of high complexity at Mountain Home Air Force Base (MHAFB), Idaho training ranges within a one to two hour drive from the base, and Gowen Field in Boise, Idaho who will be allowed to utilize the MACC on an as needed basis.
1.1 The primary goal of the MACC is speedy acquisition of Government facility construction requirements. In the event of an emergency requirement, the Contractor’s response time for proposal, site visit, and proposal submission may be severely shortened. Therefore, it is imperative that contractors, and/or their representative, designate an individual who has the authority to bind or otherwise obligate the company and have them readily available.
1.2 All work shall be in conformance with the requirements of the contract including furnishing all materials, labor, plant, tools, equipment, transportation, supervision, management, and other services (including engineering/technical design support), items and incidentals necessary thereto.
2. ON/OFF RAMP PROCEDURES:
2.1 The Government will ensure an adequate number of contractors are available at all times to achieve effective competition on all task orders (TO). Contract holders are expected, in good faith, to participate in the TO competitions, and if successful, to deliver quality projects on time and on cost, to include management and supervision of subcontractors. If for any reason, a contractor is unable to, or declines to participate in a competition, the Contractor shall provide written notice to the Contracting Officer (CO) of the reason(s) for non-participation prior to proposal due date. On or around each anniversary of contract award, the Government will evaluate each contractor’s participation rate, reason(s) for non- participation, and performance evaluations for TOs completed or in effect. Failure to participate in good faith and/or an overall annual performance assessment rating of Marginal or Unsatisfactory may result in the Government off-ramping the Contractor from the multiple award program.
2.2 An off-ramp decision results in contract expiration. In the event contractor(s) are off-ramped, the Government reserves the right to on-ramp contractor(s) to maintain a pool of up to five contractors.
2.3 The Government will allow the three new contractors previously evaluated per the solicitation to submit proposals on the next TO. The lowest-priced technically acceptable of the three new contractors is on-ramped to the MACC and eligible to compete on future TOs. Selected on-ramp contractor(s) are subject to a performance validation review including active SAM registration and compliance with the original multiple award solicitation. If found in compliance, the Government will offer the identified on-ramp contractor(s) a bi-lateral contract with the original terms and conditions and guaranteed contract minimum.
3. DEFINITIONS: All work under this contract shall comply with all definitions and requirements in this paragraph.
3.1 As-Built Drawings: Record drawings for completed construction and repair projects.
3.2 Build: The process by which the Contractor provides only construction services for a project based on design documents provided by the Government.
3.3 Color Board: A visual presentation consisting of samples of the various finishes, grouped together based on location within the project that may be required as directed by the CO. Samples shall be of adequate size to show the full pattern, texture, and color of each item and shall be submitted to the CO in the standard submittal format.
3.4 Design-Build (DB): The process by which the same contractor provides both the design and construction services for a project, completing the design before construction activity begins. In the Design-Build process, final design solutions are provided by the DB Contractor, not the Government. The DB Contractor is responsible for his or her own design, construction quality, and for full compliance with the TOPR and his or her accepted proposal.
3.5 Design Charrette: An intensely focused face-to-face project design activity led by the Contractor to build consensus between Government representatives and the Contractor’s design and construction team on the functional, aesthetic, technical, environmental, siting and layout, and other requirements. Participants represent all those who have a stake in the project outcome.
3.6 Design Review Comments: Comments provided by the Government after receipt and review of the Contractor’s design submittal. The percentage of design increases by 5% after Government acceptance of the Contractors responses to the design review comments. For example the project is at 10% design after the Contractor submits the Project Definition Design to the Government. The Government will then provide written review comments back to the Contactor and in turn the Contractor will provide written responses to the Governments review comments. After the Government accepts the Contractor’s review comment responses the project will be at 15% design.
3.7 Design Review Meeting: After the Contractor receives the Government design review comments, a meeting led by the Contractor is held between the Contractor’s design team and the Government to discuss the Government review comments prior to the
Contractor’s submission of responses to the Government review comments.
3.8 Design Costs: There will be no “design-only” Task Orders (TO) issued under this contract. A design-build TO is considered construction and not an Architect-Engineer Design contract and therefore design costs are NOT subject to the statutory limit of 6%.
3.9 Facility: Any real property improvement to include, but not be limited to buildings, pavement, fencing, utilities, landscaping and drainage ditches.
3.10 Final Design (100% Design): The final design is the result of the Contractor’s design efforts from 95% to 100%. Final Design begins after Government approval of the Contractor’s responses to the Government’s review comments on the Pre-Final Design (90% Design) which sets project at 95% design complete. The final design includes any changes necessary to comply with Government comments to the pre-final design, complete plans and specifications, final design analysis, and color boards and finishes.
Upon Government approval of the final design and Government approval of the Contractor’s proposed construction start date, the Contractor can commence construction activities.
3.11 Government Furnished Equipment (GFE) / Government Furnished Material (GFM):
Items of equipment or material which the Government will supply to the Contractor for use in the construction of a project.
3.12 Intermediate Design (60% Design): The intermediate design is the result of the Contractor’s design efforts from 35% to 60%. Intermediate Design begins after Government approval of the Contractor’s responses to the Government’s review comments on the Preliminary Design (30% Design) which sets project at 35% design complete. The intermediate design includes any changes necessary to comply with Government comments to the preliminary design, complete site and landscaping plans; complete floor plans, roof plans, structural plans, elevations, building sections, wall sections, mechanical plans, fire protection plans, plumbing plans, communication plans, and electrical plans with details, notes, material, and equipment schedules;
specifications in rough draft; and a design analysis that includes design narrative and analysis. The design analysis shall include all design assumptions and calculations for all disciplines, code analysis by all disciplines, manufacturers’ material and equipment cut sheets for major equipment, fixtures; finishes; completed environmental permit request forms; sustainable development requirements; listing of Government furnished materials, equipment and property; construction schedule to include any work phases to accommodate Government operations; copies of previous design review comments and responses; previous meeting minutes; and documentation of any other communication between the Government and the Contractor that influenced the intermediate design.
3.13 Mandatory Criteria and Standards: Requirements established by executive orders, public laws, Department of Defense policy and guidance, Air Force policy and guidance, MHAFB policy and guidance and other directives.
3.14 Period of Performance: The duration the Contractor is allowed to complete design and construction requirements of the TO.
3.15 Pre-Final Design (90% Design): The pre-final design is the result of the Contractor’s design efforts from 65% to 90%. Pre-Final Design begins after Government approval of the Contractor’s responses to the Government’s review comments on the Intermediate Design (60% Design) which sets project at 65% design complete. The pre-final design includes any changes necessary to comply with Government comments to the intermediate design, complete plans and specifications, final design analysis, and color boards and finishes. The design analysis includes design narrative and analysis, all design assumptions and calculations for all disciplines, code analysis by all disciplines, manufacturers’ material and equipment cut sheets for major equipment, fixtures; and finishes; completed environmental permit request forms;
sustainable development requirements; specifications in rough draft; listing of Government furnished materials; final construction scheduled to include any work phases to accommodate Government operations; copies of previous design review comments and responses; previous meeting minutes; and documentation of any other communication between the Government and the Contractor that influenced the intermediate design.
3.16 Preliminary Design (35% Design): The preliminary design is the result of the Contractor’s design efforts from 15% to 35%. Preliminary Design begins after Government approval of the Contractor’s responses to the Government’s review comments on the Project Definition Design (10% Design) which sets project at 15% design complete. The preliminary design includes any changes necessary to comply with Government comments to the Project Definition Design Report; further development of site plans, floor plans, elevations, building sections, and wall sections;
single line schematic drawings for mechanical, electrical, communications, etc.; color boards for interior and exterior finishes and materials; listing of proposed specification sections for the project; and a design analysis that includes design narrative and analysis including code analysis by all disciplines; environmental permitting;
sustainable development requirements, listing of Government furnished materials;
copies of previous design review comments and responses; previous meeting minutes;
and documentation of any other communication between the Government and the Contractor that influenced the preliminary design.
3.17 Professional Certification: Professional Certification consists of affixing a seal or statement to a drawing or design document to indicate that the work to which it is affixed has been performed by a person licensed as a professional, in that area of expertise, in the state of Idaho.
3.18 Project: Any maintenance, repair, construction, or combination of the three performed on or in a facility necessary to produce a complete and usable facility or improvement to a facility.
3.19 Project Definition Design (10% Design): The Project Definition Design is the result of a Design Charrette. It provides preliminary schematics of floorplans and site layout, preliminary elevations, a narrative describing each aspect of the project. The narrative includes discussion of functional, aesthetic, engineering, environmental, siting and layout and other requirements, meeting minutes, and documentation of any other communication between the Government and the Contractor that influenced the project definition design. This level of design effort equates to the final report prepared to document Design Charrette completion and represents approximately 10% of the design effort.
3.20 Proposal: The Contractor’s proposal in response to the Government’s Task Order Request for Proposal (TOPR) for Design-Build or Build of a TO requirement.
3.21 Statement of Objectives (SOO): A document prepared by the Government and issued to the Contractor as part of the TOPR that defines the project’s performance criteria and any prescriptive requirements not already stated in the Contract’s Mandatory Criteria and Standards. To the extent practical, the Government's needs will be stated in terms of functions to be performed, performance required, and essential characteristics.
3.22 Task Order (TO): A Task Order is a document prepared by the Government and issued to the Contractor against the basic contract. Its purpose is to place an order for labor, materials and other associated items as necessary to complete the Design- Build or Build of a specific project.
3.23 Task Order Request for Proposal (TOPR): A package of documents issued to the Contractor requesting a cost proposal for Design-Build or Build of TO requirement.

4.2 Task Order Issuance Procedures
4.2.1 Work under this contract will be ordered by written TOs issued on DD Form 1155 (Order for Supplies or Services) to the Contractor by the
CO.
4.2.2 TO numbers will consist of a unique identifiable PIIN number similar to the following: FA4897-19-F-XXXX.
4.2.3 The Government will not be obligated to reimburse the Contractor for work performed, items delivered, or any costs incurred, nor shall the Contractor be obligated to perform, deliver, or otherwise incur costs except as authorized by duly executed TOs.
4.2.4 TOs will be firm-fixed-price and clearly define the specific services to be performed or the performance desired. Each TO may contain additional, site or project specific, provisions. Any such additional provisions shall be a part of the Request for Proposal. NOTE: A Firm-Fixed-Price (FFP) (FAR
Subpart 16.2) contract provides for a price that is not subject to any adjustment on the basis of the contractor’s cost experience in performing the contract. This contract type places upon the contractor maximum risk and full responsibility for all costs and resulting profit or loss. It provides maximum incentive for the contractor to control costs and perform effectively and imposes a minimum administrative burden upon the contracting parties.
4.2.5 TO projects may be non-complex performance-oriented tasks requiring minimal design, may be complex construction requiring design development for design-build construction, or any combination thereof.
Any estimated quantities provided in project documents are considered informational only. Contractors must validate quantities and all features of work necessary to deliver a complete and functional project. The TO may or may not have traditional plans and specifications but may include sketches, and requests for catalog cuts, and other submittals. The following describes the procedures for each type of requirement the TO could present:
4.2.5.1 Contractor-Provided Design/Design Build: MACC Contractors shall provide an initial ‘Concept’ design consisting of drawings, sketches, outline specifications, design analysis, and/or other documentation as required by the TO Statement of Work. MACC Contractors shall also provide a price proposal using the AF 3052 Construction Cost Estimate Breakdown worksheet and may be required to include a proposed performance period. The Government will evaluate submitted proposals in accordance with TO requirements. Only the successful offeror will be required to proceed with subsequent design effort (i.e. 35%, 65%, 95% and/or 100% as stated in each TO) and execute construction.
4.2.5.2 Government-Provided Design/Design-Build: MACC Contractors shall be provided a ‘Concept’ design, consisting of drawings, sketches, outline specifications, design analysis and/or other documentation as required by the TO Statement of Work. Based on the ‘Concept’ design, MACC Contractors shall provide a price proposal using the AF 3052 Construction Cost Estimate Breakdown worksheet and may be required to include a proposed performance period. The Government will evaluate the submitted proposals in accordance with TO requirements. Only the successful offeror will be required to proceed with subsequent design effort (i.e. 35%, 65%, 95% and/or 100% as stated in each TO) and execute construction.
4.2.5.3 Construction Only: MACC Contractors shall be provided a previously accomplished design which may be representative of a 35%, 65%, 95% or 100% design consisting of drawings, specifications, design analysis and/or other documentation as required by the TO Statement of Work. Based on this completed design, MACC Contractors shall provide a price proposal using the AF 3052 Construction Cost Estimate Breakdown worksheet and may be required to include a proposed performance period (as stated in each TO). The Government will evaluate submitted price proposals in accordance with TO requirements. Only the successful offeror will proceed with construction. The design levels stated above are defined in the basic MACC Statement of Work.
4.2.6 TOPRs will provide contractors with as much information as possible regarding the existing conditions of the site and any pre-existing structures.
4.2.7 Contractors will provide a price proposal and a proposed performance period. The Government will evaluate submitted proposals according to criteria specified in the TOPR. Only the successful offeror will be required to proceed with subsequent design effort, if required, and execute construction.
4.2.8 TOs may be modified by the CO. Modifications to TOs will be issued on
Standard Form (SF) 30 and cite the TO number. NOTE: Contractors may only commense work as the result of a change by direction of a CO.
Inspectors and Contracting Officer Representatives (COR) may not direct a contractor to proceed with a change.
4.2.9 Submission of proposals for TOs is not required. However, contractors are required to contact the CO within two days after receipt of TOPR if a contractor will not participate in the walk-through or submit a proposal on a TO. Failure by Offerors to participate responsibly in Site Visits and submit proposals on at least 75% of the issued TOPRs may result in the Government “off-ramping” the contractor and excluding them from further competition.
4.2.10 Each TOPR will identify evaluation factors that are going to be used in the award of the TO.
Orders may be awarded on price, best value, performance price tradeoff process or a low price, technically acceptable basis. If the Government decides to issue the TOPR as a tradeoff process, award factors will vary depending on the unique requirements of each requirement. The following sample criteria may be evaluated, in addition to price or cost:
(a) Past performance - past performance under this contract or other contracts
(b) Quality of deliverables
(c) Ability to meet schedule requirements
(d) Relevant experience
(e) Cost control
(f) Potential impact on other orders placed with the contractor
(g) Current workload
(h) Design
(i) The contractor’s technical understanding of the work.
(j) The most efficient and effective plan to accomplish the work.
(k) Rationale for proposed materials, type and quantities.
(l) Sustainable design features
Typically the evaluation methods will correspond with the level of design or complexity of the proposal to be submitted. Each request for proposal will state evaluation requirement and the method of selection. The government may elect not to solicit to all awardees in accordance with DFARS 216.505-70 Orders Under Multiple Award Contracts. This restricted competition may be to meet minimum order amounts, work requiring special skills or trades, or urgent and compelling schedules.
4.3 Proposal Receipt: The contractors will submit a proposal to accomplish the work described in each TOPR. Following submittal of the proposal and at the Government’s discretion, discussions may be held with the Contractor to clarify and/or negotiate elements of the proposal.
4.3.1 As-Built Verification: The Government does not guarantee the accuracy or adequacy of the as-built record drawings. It is the Contractor’s responsibility to field verify all Government provided record drawings prior to submitting a proposal. The Contractor shall be responsible for the reproduction of these drawings if multiple copies are needed. The Contractor may make multiple site visits, conduct exploratory excavation(s) with an approved Work Clearance Request (AF Form 103), or other intrusive inspection(s) upon approval of the CO, and shall restore all disturbed areas to existing conditions. All exploratory investigations shall be at no additional cost to the Government and are considered field overhead. The Contractor is responsible for accuracy of all measurements whether they are obtained in the field, or as existing drawing take-offs to develop accurate working drawings. It shall be noted that minor adjustments of new utility lines may be required to avoid existing underground utility lines or existing structures at no additional cost to the Government. All plans, labor, equipment, materials, and incidentals shall be furnished by the Contractor, unless otherwise specified. Since the Contractor is responsible for identifying and addressing any foreseeable complications, they shall thoroughly investigate the requirements of each TOPR prior to submitting a proposal.
4.3.2 Hazardous Materials to include, but not be limited to, Asbestos Containing Materials (ACM), lead based paint (LBP), mold, and mercury: The Contractor’s proposal shall include removal and dispose of any known hazardous materials in accordance with State and Federal rules and regulations and survey to determine if any additional ACM, LBP, mold, mercury or other hazardous material are contained in the TO work area. If additional hazardous materials requiring remediation are identified during the survey, or during construction, the Contractor will address them under a modification to the TO.
4.3.3 The Contractor shall thoroughly review the project request for constructability and advise the Government of possible problem areas prior to submitting a proposal.
4.3.4 The Contractor's proposal shall include the costs for all Professional certifications for all life safety plans, fire suppression and alarm plans, and pre- engineered structures, regardless of whether the TO is Build only or the TO design level is a lower level than Final Design (100%).
4.3.5 The Contractor’s proposal will give a brief synopsis of the technical approach and narrative of the requirements for each proposal. This narrative shall not use phrases that merely refer to the Government’s SOO. They should be of sufficient detail to convey a clear understanding of the requirements.
4.3.6 Each proposal will provide timelines and critical path items showing an understanding of the project requirements and capability in achieving the desired period of performance provided in the TOPR.
4.3.7 A Bid Schedule will be provided with each TOPR on which the
Contractor will provide pricing.
4.4 TO Commencement:
4.4.1 The Contractor shall commence work and complete the design and construction in accordance with the time frames established in the TO.
Construction shall not begin until Government approval of the Final Design submittal and issuance of the Notice to Proceed, unless directed/allowed by the CO.
4.4.2 The Contractor shall perform an Asbestos Survey, Mold Survey, and LBP survey prior to the demolition, repair, and alteration and new construction.
This information shall be reviewed and a Hazardous Materials Abatement Plan shall be produced to address these hazardous materials, if found. The Government will provide the Contractor with a copy of any known reports and/or surveys that lists ACM, LBP, and mercury containing materials that have been previously identified on the project site. If additional hazardous materials are identified during the survey, or if additional hazardous materials are encountered during construction, the Contractor shall notify the CO immediately, who will then notify the Government Program Manager.
4.4.3 Progress of Work: Once awarded a TO, the Contractor shall submit for approval all work schedules to the Government before start of work, unless otherwise specified. The reports contemplated by FAR Clause 52.236-15, Schedules for Construction Contracts, shall be accomplished on and in accordance with instructions pertaining to AF Form 3064, Contract Progress Schedule, and AF Form 3065, Contract Progress Report. This requirement is applicable to a TO with a minimum performance period of greater than 60 calendar days unless otherwise specified by the CO.
