Design Build Contract for VMO00166 The Solicitation, Phase 1 – Request for Qualifications January 14, 2015

552.219-71 Notice to Offerors of Subcontracting Plan Requirements (MAR 2012)

The General Services Administration (GSA) is committed to assuring that maximum practicable opportunity is provided to small, HUBZone small, small disadvantaged, women-owned, veteran-owned, and service-disabled veteran owned small business concerns to participate in the performance of this contract consistent with its efficient performance. GSA expects any subcontracting plan submitted pursuant to FAR 52.219-9, Small Business Subcontracting Plan, to reflect this commitment. Consequently, an offeror, other than a small business concern, before being awarded a contract exceeding $650,000 ($1,500,000 for construction), must demonstrate that its subcontracting plan represents a creative and innovative program for involving small, HUBZone small, small disadvantaged, women-owned, veteran-owned, and service-disabled veteran owned small business concerns as subcontractors in the performance of this contract.

Notice of Apprenticeship Programs

GSA is promoting the use of registered apprenticeship programs on this project. An Apprenticeship Plan is required after the award.

Notice of Equal Employment Opportunity (EEO) Compliance Plan

GSA has partnered with the Department of Labor to ensure compliance with equal employment opportunity requirements that apply to this project. An EEO Compliance Plan is required after the award.

Notice of Commercial Package Carriers

Courier service for the Bannister Federal Complex is discouraged. Due to the phased downtown move of Region 6, GSA Courier service may be delayed or refused in making deliveries to the Bannister Federal Complex. Track-able Commercial Package Carriers are encouraged in lieu of courier services. Offerors should take these facts into consideration when determining how and when to transmit offers to the office designated for receipt. (See 1442, Block 8)

B. Evaluation of Submissions in response to the Phase II Evaluation

The Phase II evaluation will be based on technical factors as well as price. Technical factors are significantly more important than price and the technical factors will be weighted.

Document: DB201-1 /Dec 2014 (The Solicitation) Pages 11 of 19

The price proposal will include pricing of the DB’s cost for Design/Build Phase Work including profit, and other overhead costs, change order markup and extended overhead costs. The price proposal shall be segregated from the technical proposal. Proposals will be evaluated and scored according to technical evaluation factors and standards outlined in the RFP and SSP. The technical proposals will be reviewed and evaluated prior to and separately from the review of price proposals. If the Contracting Officer determines that a competitive range will be established, and discussions are to be held, those Offerors within the competitive range will be advised of technical deficiencies and significant weakness noted by the technical advisors and the SSEB prior to review of the price proposal, and given an opportunity to correct the deficiencies, if the SSEB determines this to be in the best interest of GSA.

As part of the Phase II evaluation, the Contracting Officer and Source Selection Evaluation Board (SSEB) may conduct interviews. However, GSA reserves the right to evaluate proposals and make award without discussions or oral presentations (clarifications may be made as described in FAR 15.306(a)). Interviews, if held, will be conducted at GSA’s Office in Kansas City, MO. Interviews, negotiations and/or discussions, if held, will only be held with Offerors that are in the competitive range of the Phase II evaluation. Negotiations, if conducted, will be conducted by the Contracting Officer or their authorized representative.

GSA may negotiate the DB Contractor’s fee for Construction Phase Work including profit, general conditions and other overhead costs as well as any other aspect of the offer as deemed necessary. After technical and price evaluations, discussions and/or negotiations, and revised proposals, if required, the SSA will select the Offeror whose offer is the best value and most advantageous to the Government. Final selection will be made based on Source Selection procedures.

Evaluation Criteria

SSEB will consider the following factors in order to determine an Offeror success in completing similar projects. “Similar” is defined as Design-Build, Bridging Design-Build or Construction Manager at Risk (CMc), structural renovation projects of multi-story construction containing a minimum of 175,000 gross square feet. Examples of such “similar” building structures include courthouses, hospital facilities, Class A office space, research laboratories, and government facilities with a minimum construction cost of $10 million.

Projects submitted that contain any of the following may exceed the standard:

Design Build Bridging Design Build Historic building Work completed while the building was fully or partially occupied Construction cost above $25 million Construction space above $500,000 Square Feet

The SSEB will be limited to reviewing only similar projects. Relate all projects submitted in Factors 1 and 3 in type and scope to this project.

Factor 1: Quality of Concept Design Factor 2: Qualifications and Experience of Key Personnel.

Factor 3: Management Plan Factor 4: Project Labor Agreement

o The provided BIM model may contain MEPFP components (specifically) that are at a higher LOD than other model components based on field observations at specific locations. These MEPFP components are represented only as conflicts at preliminary structural retrofit locations and do not indicate the origins or terminations of MEPFP systems.

Subfactor 1b: Preliminary project implementation schedule and sequencing approach.

Subfactor 1c: Floor Plans and Reflected Ceiling Plans (if needed) of all floors and shear wall locations that clearly identify locations of all structural shear wall additions and foundation additions/modifications.
