This synopsis is anticipated to be issued as a Partial Small Business Set‑Aside, with a Woman‑Owned Small Business (WOSB) Reserve for one (1) firm within the Small Business Pool. The Department of the Air Force (DAF) expects to award contracts to approximately six (6) Other‑than‑Small Business firms in the Unrestricted (UNR) Pool and five (5) Small Business (SB) firms in the Small Business Pool, including the reserved WOSB. However, the Air Force retains the discretion to award to more or fewer firms as needed. To participate in the Small Business Pool, firms must be certified as a Small Business under NAICS 541330 (Engineering Services), with a size standard of $25.5 million in average annual receipts.

The following conditions are anticipated to result in a Small Business Set-Aside at the Task Order Level:

• NON-MILCON (non-military-construction appropriation) Orders for Title I design services (planning charettes, 35% design, Issued for Construction Designs, etc) of projects that are expected to result in a Construction Cost Limitation/Programmed Amount under $5M shall be set-aside for SB.

mailto:salvador.castillo@us.af.mil mailto:monica.gallegos@us.af.mil

• NON-MILCON (non-military-construction appropriation) Orders under $500K in anticipated A- E fees for Title I or Title II services that do NOT result in a stamped design (studies, investigations, etc) and therefore have no Construction Cost Limitation, shall be set-aside for SB.

• Orders under $1M in anticipated A-E Fees for any A-E service funded by MILCON appropriations shall be set aside for SB.

• Orders over these thresholds will be open for competition among all MATOC awardees (both the SB and UNR Pools).

GENERAL INFORMATION

The Air Force Installation Contracting Center (AFICC)/772nd Enterprise Sourcing Squadron (772 ESS) in conjunction with the Air Force Civil Engineer Center (AFCEC), Joint Base San Antonio - Lackland Air Force Base, TX, desires to contract with Architect-Engineer (A-E) firms to support Facility Sustainment, Restoration and Modernization (FSRM) and MILCON Title I and Title II projects with a focus on mission resilience for locations in CONUS and outlying areas as defined by FAR 2.101. The 772 ESS anticipates award of an Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) Multiple Award Task Order Contract (MATOC) for Resilient A-E Services, with a total contract ceiling of $3.4B, shared among all contract holders. The Task Order limitation will be a minimum of $2,500 and maximum of $10M, subject to the conditions of FAR 52.216-19 - Order Limitations. This MATOC will be procured in accordance with the Selection of Architect- Engineers Act (40 USC Sections 1101-1104, previously known as the “Brooks Act”), as implemented by FAR 36.6. Firms will be selected as Most Highly Qualified (MHQ) firms in accordance with the selection criteria identified in Section B below.

“Most Highly Qualified” refers to the offeror or contractor whose qualifications, experience, technical capabilities, and past performance best meet the government's requirements. Based on the five-selection criterion discussed below.

For purposes of this synopsis, the term "Offeror" refers to the firm or Joint-Venture firm that submits SF330 as a response to this synopsis.

ORDERING PERIOD AND CONTRACT TYPE: Each basic IDIQ contract within the MATOC will have a maximum ordering period of ten years comprised of One (1) five-year base period, with One (1) five-year option period. This MATOC allows for the issuance of Firm Fixed Price (FFP) negotiated task orders during the ordering period. Upon selection of the MHQ firms the basic contract will include negotiated composite labor rates for engineering and associated labor categories and a negotiated General and Administrative (G&A) rate (if applicable), to be applicable to all task orders. The basic contract’s composite labor rates will include both the prime contractor and any teaming partner base labor, fringe, overhead and G&A (if applicable). The basic contract’s negotiated composite labor rates will not include profit. Level of effort (labor hours) and all other costs, to include direct costs, subcontracting costs, and profit will be negotiated with each individual task order. Opportunities for On-Ramping may become available during contract performance if the Contracting Officer determines it to be in the Government’s best interest. Selection Criteria for on-ramping would remain the same as the final selection criteria in this announcement, unless overcome by statute or policy.

Task order pricing will be negotiated based on level of effort and types of disciplines required to perform the services, using the rates established in the basic contracts.

Task Orders issued under this MATOC will be awarded competitively amongst the contractors awarded a contract under this MATOC using qualifications-based selection procedures consistent with the Brooks Act.

TASK ORDER COMPETITION:

PRIME OFFEROR SUBMISSION AND USE OF TEAMING PARTNERS:

A portion of this contract synopsis/solicitation is set aside for Small Business (including a WOSB Reserve of one (1) Firm), and thus similarly-situated entities can team with the SB or WOSB Prime Offeror to ensure the 50% threshold is met. NOTE: Joint Venture (JV) entities are considered PRIME Contractors, and therefore any experience performed by the JV Firm or any of its JV entities are considered to be executed by the “Prime” – this arrangement is NOT considered a Prime-to-Sub Teaming partner arrangement. The JV Prime entity itself must be a SB, and therefore all work to be executed by that JV entity will also count toward the 50% threshold required by FAR 52.219-14 (OCT 2022). Also note that for JV entities in a Mentor-Protégé arrangement, per 13 CFR 125.9(4), a mentor that has more than one protégé cannot submit competing offers (SF330s) in response to a solicitation (synopsis) for a specific procurement through separate joint ventures with different protégés.

Offerors are not required to propose teaming partners; however, Offerors are advised that the firm proposed to perform each discipline (whether the Prime Offeror or a Teaming Partner, or both) must be used during performance of task orders for that discipline. If the Prime chooses to both self-perform a discipline AND utilize a teaming partner for the same discipline, then both the Prime and the Teaming Partner must demonstrate relevant experience in the SF330 submissions. Each engineering discipline and the associated firm that will execute that work, will be identified on the contract award and must be used during task order performance. Accordingly, offerors are advised that their SF330 proposal submission must clearly articulate projects performed by each of the proposed teaming partners.

THIS SECTION APPLIES TO THE FOLLOWING DISCIPLINES/FIRM TYPES ONLY: Project Management, Architectural, Mechanical Engineering, Civil Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Structural Engineering, Fire Protection Engineering, Title II Construction Inspection Services, Interior Design, Construction Schedule Development/Analysis, and Construction Cost Estimating Services. A Firm specializing in and proposing to perform any of these disciplines on this resultant contract shall propose a maximum of ONE time – a Firm can either serve as a Prime Offeror (either on its own or as part of a JV‐Prime Offeror) OR as a Teaming Partner to ONE other Prime Offeror. Project Management must be performed by the Prime.

The Government may exclude SF330 from this competition without evaluating it against the selection criteria below if an initial assessment of the SF330 shows it to be non-responsive. Examples of non-responsive SF330s are SF330s that fail to address essential requirements of this synopsis or fail to furnish information demonstrating compliance with mandatory synopsis requirements.

Firms selected as MHQ for this Resilient AE Services MATOC and issued a Request for Proposal (RFP) will be required to submit and negotiate one composite labor rate per labor category/discipline, to be incorporated into the contract. The Government will not separately negotiate teaming partner rates.

If Teaming Partners are used for the primary disciplines identified in the SF 330, PART 1, SECTIONS D and E, CRITERION (2) PROFESSIONAL QUALIFICATIONS, then submission of formal teaming arrangements will ONLY be required for the Construction Inspector (Title II), Interior Design, Construction Schedule Development/Analysis, Construction Cost Estimating Services and Primary A-E Disciplines (Architect, Mechanical Engineer, Civil Engineer, Electrical Engineer, Structural Engineer, Fire Protection Engineer). Submission of formal teaming arrangements will be requested with the Request for Proposal to the MHQ Firms. Formal teaming arrangements are not required with the SF330 submission.

Small Business Identification and election of competition: The Government anticipates selecting approximately five of the MHQ firms from the Small Business Pool, including the highest‑rated Woman‑Owned Small Business (WOSB) offeror under the reserve. The Government reserves the right to make awards to a greater or lesser number of firms, as determined to be in the best interest of the acquisition.

SB Prime Offerors must state in their cover letter that they are an SB Prime Offeror and indicate whether they wish to compete in the SB Pool or the UNR Pool. WOSB Prime Offerors must likewise identify themselves as WOSB Prime Offerors and specify their chosen pool (SB or UNR). The evaluation process begins with WOSB Prime Offerors, where the MHQ WOSB Prime Offeror is selected to fill the single WOSB Reserve slot in the SB Pool. Any remaining WOSB Offerors then compete alongside other SB Offerors in the SB Pool, using the same selection criteria outlined in Section B of the synopsis.

The UNR Pool will be evaluated separately from the SB Pool; however, the MHQ selections will be determined using the same selection criteria outlined in Section B of this synopsis for selecting MHQ SB Firms. At the Task Order level, all firms selected for the SB Pool—whether chosen as part of the Reserve or otherwise—will be eligible to compete for each Task Order that is set aside for SB. Task Orders that are not set aside for SB will be open to both the UNR Pool and the SB Pool, with all eligible firms participating in the Task Order MHQ selection process.

To receive award, contractors must be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) website at http://www.sam.gov. This synopsis and any resultant contract awards do not guarantee work to selected firms. However, the minimum guarantee of $2,500 will be awarded as the first Task Order against this MATOC (concurrently with the basic contract award) and will require each awardee to attend a ½ day Post-Award conference in San Antonio, TX.

A. DESCRIPTION OF WORK: This contract will support the award of Architect-Engineer (A-E)

Title I and Title II Services for the 50 United States and outlying areas, as identified in individual Task Orders.

1. General Scope:

This requirement (Resilient A-E Services (RAES)) is for a MATOC for A-E Title I and Title II Services for Facilities Sustainment, Restoration and Modernization (FSRM) and Military Construction (MILCON) projects for Department of War (DoW) Facilities. Task Orders will provide either A-E Title I and/or Title II services for the renovation of existing facilities, demolition, repair, or replacement of DoD facilities, as well as A-E services to support MILCON planning and design of new facilities.

2. Definitions:

The following definitions aid in the preparation of the Offeror’s SF 330.

"Project" defines work performed pursuant to ONE SPECIFIC TASK ORDER of an IDIQ type contract or a stand-alone C-Type contract. This definition does not consider an IDIQ type of basic contract, in and of itself, as a project. For the purposes of this evaluation, a “project” means A-E services for a DoW building(s) and non-DoW building(s). “Project” also denotes the design portion of a Design-Build (DB) construction contract or task order where the Offeror (A-E firm) for this synopsis served as the designer of record (DOR) for the design package in the DB project where the Government accepted the 100% design in that DB effort.

"Department of War (DoW) facilities" are limited to vertical construction (buildings only and includes all facilities located on a United States DoW installation including National Guard and Reserve Facilities. .

This definition does not include facilities on a Coast Guard base, NASA location, or other federal, commercial, or private facility, unless the A-E Title I projects followed Unified Facilities Criteria (UFC) design criteria. Projects where facilities are located outside of the United States are acceptable ONLY if the project design followed DoW UFC Design Criteria. Project narratives need to be clear as to what design standards were utilized.

"Non-DoW facilities" are limited to vertical construction (buildings) only and includes all facilities located in the United States (not on an active installation) and includes its outlying areas, as defined by FAR 2.101, that have complied with all applicable building codes and regulations. Project narratives need to be clear as to what design standards were utilized.

"Relevant Project" includes Title I and Title II services for facilities meeting the definition of “project” (See definition of “project” above).

The specific definitions of A-E Title I and Title II services are as follows:

“Title I Services” include engineering services related to a specific construction project and consists of conducting field surveys and investigations to obtain design data and preparing contract plans, specifications, cost estimates, and estimated construction periods of performance. Title I services may include all aspects of design, such as preparation and review of contract plans, specifications, scheduling, cost estimates, Building Information Modeling (BIM), design-build conceptual designs, interior design for fixed furniture and equipment (FF&E), energy modeling and Life Cycle Cost Analyses, seismic retrofit design, system commissioning services, and the preparation of operating and design manuals.

Title I efforts also encompass other A-E Services required to support and develop design work, planning and programming, program management, project scoping, studies, investigations, evaluations, consultations, conceptual design, value engineering, operation services, monitoring services, topographic survey services, and infrastructure systems.

“Title II Services” are A-E services related to a construction project(s) and consists of supervision and inspection of construction activities. A relevant Title II project must include full-time on-site construction inspection activities by the Firm’s on-site Construction Inspector (Title II/QA Manager). Title II services may include all aspects of construction quality assurance and oversight of facility and infrastructure construction/ renovation projects and may include oversight of incidental environmental projects associated with primary requirements. Title II Services include construction phase credentialed architectural and engineering support services that encompass a full range of disciplinary expertise and services to include on-site construction oversight assistance, design reviews, quality assurance inspections, adherence to applicable specifications, construction schedule analysis, material submittal reviews, environmental submittal reviews, claim reviews, and designer of record support, and other standard construction submittal reviews.

"Construction phase" means A-E services to provide Quality Assurance support (on the Government's behalf) for a construction project/contract, to include on-site inspection and oversight of construction activities to ensure adherence to technical specifications.

"Credentialed A-E support services" are services conducted by Professional Architects/Engineers to review technical construction submittals (Div 01 Submittals, material submittals, shop-drawings, As-builts, accuracy of design calculations, etc.)

"Completed projects" means the firm performed and finished the A-E contract or task order for Title I design and/or Title II construction support services within the past 10 years from the date this synopsis was posted. “Completed Project” also defines the design portion of a Design-Build (DB) contract or task order that the Prime Contractor (A-E firm) submitting the SF330 for this synopsis served as the DOR that completed the design package for the DB project, and the Government accepted the 100% design for that DB project. Further, “Completed Project” represents the completed Title II services of at least one construction projects under one contract. Accordingly, where a single Title II contract or Task Order covers multiple construction projects, at least one of those construction projects must have been completed, and the narrative shall ONLY describe the completed portion of the work. Similarly, where a single Task Order or Contract covers multiple Title I designs (i.e. for multiple facilities), at least one of those facility designs must have been completed and the narrative shall ONLY describe the completed portion of the work. Further, where a Task Order or contract includes both Title I and Title II services, the firm can submit the Title I portion if it is complete, even if the Title II is not yet complete, but shall only describe the completed Title I portion in the narrative.

“Resilience” as defined in DoW Instruction 4715.21 (Definitions) and AF Instruction 32-1015 (Terms), is the ability to anticipate, prepare for, and adapt to changing conditions and withstand, respond to, and recover rapidly from disruptions.

“Facility Resilience” is defined as a Title I project that provide design for the facility resilience capability of a military installation to: avoid, prepare for, minimize the effect of, adapt to, and recover from extreme weather events, or from anticipated or unanticipated changes in environmental conditions, that do, or have the potential to, adversely affect the military installation or essential transportation, logistical, or other necessary resources outside of the military installation that are necessary in order to maintain, improve, or rapidly reestablish installation mission assurance and mission-essential functions.

For each project submitted, Offerors shall specify the scope of work (engineering disciplines and building systems to demonstrate extent and complexity of design services) accomplished by the Prime and individual teaming partners. For Joint Venture Offerors, engineering disciplines performed by either entity of the Joint Venture (JV) or the JV itself are considered the Prime and are not considered “teaming partners.”

Business Relationships (1 page):

The Prime Contractor is accountable for all work products. Therefore, it is crucial that the offeror(s) demonstrate strong business relationships, whether the work elements are executed in-house by the Prime, JV or by a teaming partner. The Offeror must submit a narrative, limited to one page, that outlines the Prime Offeror’s business relationship with the entities of its JV Partners (if applicable) and any teaming partners. The narrative should illustrate examples of the extent of relationships in previous contracts involving proposed team members (both Prime/JV Partners working together and any teaming partners working with the Prime), as applicable. Outline past experiences collaborating with proposed team members and the history of these working relationships, inclusive of joint venture partners and teaming partners, as applicable. Include the number of projects worked between the Prime and each Teaming

Partner over the last 10 years. The Government encourages Offerors to review all submissions to ensure project submissions and narratives provide enough information for the Government to determine the extent of the Offeror's experience and business relationships.

EVALUATION:

Sub-sections a.1. through a.6. below are listed in descending order of importance. The government will assign a rating as referenced above.

a. RESILIENT DESIGN.

1. MAXIMIZATION OF PASSIVE DESIGN: Title I projects that provide passive design features including, but not limited to building orientation, passive solar design, passive day-lighting, natural ventilation, super-insulation of building envelope, and thermal mass.

2. ENERGY USE INTENSITY (EUI) AND WATER USE INTENSITY (WUI)

REDUCTION: Title I projects that provide design for EUI and WUI improvements.

EUI is a metric that measures a building’s energy efficiency by dividing its total annual energy consumption by its total square footage. WUI is a metric that measures a building's water efficiency by dividing its total annual water consumption by its total square footage. Project descriptions that include building EUI and WUI reductions that has been validated post occupancy using advanced meter readings will be given more consideration.

3. ON-SITE ENERGY GENERATION, STORAGE, AND MANAGEMENT: Title I projects that include on-site energy generation. More consideration will be given when project descriptions include on-site energy generation, storage and management.

4. ENERGY RETROFITS: Title I projects that provide design for energy retrofits of existing buildings. More consideration will be given when project descriptions include building EUI reductions that has been validated post occupancy using advanced meter readings.

5. UFC 1-200-02, High Performance and Sustainable Building Requirements: Title I design projects that meet UFC 1-200-02 and have completed one of the following third-party sustainability certifications: US Green Building Council (USGBC) “Guiding Principles Assessment for Department of Defense”; Green Building Initiative (GBI) “Department of Defense Guiding Principles Compliance”; USGBC “Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design” (LEED); and GBI “Green Globes”.

LIFE-CYCLE COST ANALYSIS (LCCA): Title I projects that provide design for LCCA required by UFC 1-200-02 High Performance and Sustainable Buildings, UFC 3-740-05 Construction Cost Estimating, 10 CFR Part 436 Subpart A, and NIST Handbook 135.

a. TITLE II SERVICES: Title II Services projects will be rated on a Satisfactory/Unsatisfactory basis. To receive a Satisfactory Rating for this criterion, the offeror must demonstrate credentialed architectural and engineering support services, to include both on-site construction oversight, and engineering reviews of construction administrative and technical submittals, for a construction project where on-site time was a minimum of 6 months and construction cost was a minimum of $5 million.

b. FACILITY DESIGN: The facility design narrative will be rated on a Satisfactory/ Unsatisfactory basis. To receive a Satisfactory Rating for this criterion, the offeror must demonstrate completed design for at least two industrial buildings and, two non-industrial buildings.

The project experience demonstrated by the Offeror in this criterion will form the basis of the initial rating assigned. The Government will then consider the strength of the Offeror’s response to Criterion 1 “Business Relationships” when determining the final rating for this criterion. Where an Offeror’s narrative demonstrates a history of strong business relationships between the Prime and its teaming partners, if applicable, the initial rating will remain the same. However, a lower rating may be assigned where the business relationships between the Prime and its teaming partners are less developed. Note that the Government considers that the larger the number of teaming partners used, the higher the risk of unsuccessful control and coordination by the Prime.

2. SF 330, PART 1, SECTIONS D AND E, CRITERION (2) PROFESSIONAL QUALIFICATIONS

SUBMISSION REQUIREMENTS:

Provide the data for SF330, Section E of each proposed key personnel. Each resume shall include a minimum of two (2) and a maximum of five (5) specific, relevant, and completed projects (see definitions above) that best illustrate the qualifications of the individual member for the position the Offeror proposes for the key member. Limit submission to TWO (2) Pages per Key Person.

Section E for each key person shall include the following elements: the individual's employer(s), role proposed, the number of years engaged in the discipline, any professional licensures and credentialing held, years with the company. Proposed key personnel shall be current active “certified payroll” employees of their respective firm (Prime or Teaming Partner) and that “contract, zero hour, and consulting” staff will not be considered to meet the current Key Personnel requirement. The Government will evaluate the ability of the key personnel to contribute to the successful completion of project task orders based on their experience. An individual may not perform more than one role.

In the SF 330, Part 1, Section D, provide an organizational chart that identifies the members of the program team, to include the key personnel. Indicate the branch office location of each team member.

The individuals filling the role of each of the following positions (1-12) are considered programmatic key personnel that provide oversight and internal quality control of A-E efforts for their associated disciplines for all Task Orders:

1. Lead Project Manager

2. Lead Construction Inspector (Title II / Quality Assurance Manager)

The following individuals must be professionally licensed or credentialed (applicable license or credential is listed by position below) in their respective disciplines:

3. Lead Architect, RA

4. Lead Historic Preservation Architect, RA

5. Lead Interior Designer, NCIDQ

6. Lead Civil Engineer, PE

7. Lead Structural Engineer, PE

8. Lead Mechanical Engineer, PE

9. Lead Fire Protection Engineer, PE

10. Lead Electrical Engineer, PE

11. Lead Cost Engineer/Estimator, CCP or TCCC/TCCE

12. Lead Scheduler, PSP

The Government expects these individuals will provide program level quality control and oversight of the task orders that result from this acquisition. The Government’s Corporate Contracting Officer (CCO) MUST approve any changes to the proposed key team members after submission of qualifications.

EVALUATION METHOD for Professional Qualifications:

The Government will first evaluate each key person to ensure their qualifications meet the following minimum requirements: Each key person must have at least 10 years of experience in their respective discipline, with the exception of the Lead Project Manager who can demonstrate this experience as a Project Manager or as an Engineer, and the Construction Inspector (Title II Services), who must demonstrate at least 10 years of experience in the construction industry, to include 3 years of experience performing construction as an on-site Quality Control Manager, onsite Construction Manager, or an onsite Project Engineer. The Prime must employ the Lead Project Manager. Each Key Person must also demonstrate at least one year of employment with their current employer (the Prime, JV or a proposed Teaming Partner). Each key person must also have at least TWO projects on their resume. The Government will also evaluate the Business Relationship narrative from Criterion (1) with that Teaming Partner and will consider the Key Person minimally acceptable if that Teaming Partner has completed at least TWO projects with the Prime during the last 10 years, with more consideration given to a Prime or Teaming Partner relationship that has a greater number of projects or years of experience working together. Ensure every position has a person proposed. The Government will interpret any blank elements of Section E as the key person not possessing that experience. A proposed key person can only serve in one key position. Key personnel #3 through 12 must be professionally licensed or credentialed as stated in the submission requirement. The Lead Title II Construction Inspector, Lead Civil Engineer, Lead Structural Engineer, Lead Cost Engineer/Estimator, Lead Scheduler, Lead Historic Preservation Architect, Lead Interior Designer, and Lead Fire Protection Engineer will not be evaluated further, if he/she meets the minimum stated requirement.

Upon ensuring all key personnel meet the minimum qualification requirements stated above; to assign an initial rating, the Government will then consider the extent of relevant resilient design experience of all key personnel except the Lead Title II Construction Inspector, Lead Civil Engineer, Lead Structural Engineer, Lead Cost Engineer/Estimator, Lead Scheduler, Lead Historic Preservation Architect, Lead Interior Designer, and Lead Fire Protection Engineer. Resumes that include a greater experience of A-E Title I relevant resilient design project types in the evaluation areas listed in Criterion (1) Paragraph a.1.

through a.6 in descending order of importance will be evaluated more favorably.

The project experience demonstrated by the key personnel in this criterion will form the basis of the initial rating assigned. Where the Offeror proposes to use a Teaming Partner for their key personnel, the rating assigned may be adjusted based on the strength of relationships demonstrated in the narrative submission from Criterion 1, “Business Relationships”.

3. SF 330, PART 1, SECTION H, CRITERION (3) PAST PERFORMANCE

SUBMISSION REQUIREMENTS:

Offerors shall provide current and valid customer points of contact (name, position/role, email, and phone numbers) for resilient design projects submitted in Criterion (1), Section F of the SF330. Also, submit CPARS evaluations for resilient design projects submitted in Criterion (1). The Government encourages firms to contact the appropriate government Project Managers, Contracting Officers (CO), or Contracting Officer's Representatives (COR) to ensure CPARS evaluations submitted on completed government projects, particularly for those projects submitted under Criterion (1). If a finalized CPARS evaluation is not available, Offerors may submit a Past Performance Questionnaire (PPQ) for completed design work.

In addition to stand alone design contracts/task orders, “completed design project” includes designs completed on a Design-Build (DB) contract, even if the construction portion is not yet completed.

However, the PPQ shall only address the completed design portion and the quality of that design work, if known. The PPQ is Attachment 2 to this synopsis.

Submit CPARS and PPQs to the Contract Specialist (CS), Monica Gallegos, via email at monica.gallegos@us.af.mil and Salvador Castillo at salvador.castillo@us.af.mil with the SF330 submission.

Contractors may use previously completed PPQs. For those PPQs, Government reserves the right to ask the current Government Representative on the contract of the PPQ to verify currency and accuracy of the PPQ information.
