The Louisville District is located within the Eastern time zone.

The Source Selection Evaluation Board (SSEB) will evaluate offerors’ proposals based on specific factors which are defined in the RFP Package.

THE PROCUREMENT PROCESS

This project will be a Single-Phase Design-Bid-Build Unrestricted procurement.

Source Selection Evaluation Criteria for the “Best Value Trade-Off” consists of the following elements:

1) Volume I – Factor I: Past Performance Evaluation

Relevancy - Recent projects, similar in size, scope, magnitude of effort & complexities; experience in successfully delivering the project(s) on time and within budget Quality of performance on submitted projects Other sources of relevant past performance information (i.e., CPARS, FAPIIS, eSRS)

Volume I – Factor II: Management Plan (i.e., Project Delivery Team/Staff, Resources, Collaboration, Communications Process, Quality Control, Plan to Mitigate Cost Growth and Schedule Creep, etc. . . . .)

PROPOSAL REQUIREMENTS

Section 00 22 12 will contain the proposal submission requirements and evaluation criteria. Follow the format described in Section 00 22 12 to keep the proposal in order, success is in the details. Please pay close attention to the requirements of the RFP.

For the Past Performance Factor, we will evaluate both the relevancy of experience and performance quality of prior experience. We will, at a minimum, review CPARS information available but reserve the right to check any and all sources of past performance information. This review will result in an overall assessment of confidence in performance.

For the Technical Evaluation Factors (Management Plan and Commissioning Plan), consider providing specifically tailored approaches for the solicited project. Don’t just tell us how you generally execute construction projects; tell us how you plan to execute this specific project and mitigate project specific risks (schedule, environmental, labor, etc.).

Source Selection Evaluation Criteria for a “Best Value Trade-Off” consists of the following elements:

Volume I – Factor III: Small Business Participation Plan (All - Large & Small Business Offerors)

Volume II – Pro Forma & Price Information Tab A: Standard Form 1442 & Price Tab B: Joint Venture Agreements (if applicable) Tab C: Evidence of Ability to Obtain Bonding & Proof of Financial Ability Tab D: Pre-Award Information (i.e., Reps & Certs, offeror information, etc.)

Tab E: Subcontracting Plan (Large Business Offerors only)

PROPOSAL REQUIREMENTS (CONT)

As a reminder, the Small Business Participation Plan is a rated evaluation factor and applies to all businesses, both large and small, and is based on total contract value. Only large businesses are required to submit a Subcontracting Plan.

Technical Factors listed in relative order of importance:

All Technical Evaluation Factors, other than Price, when combined are considered approximately equal to Price.

Submit your best proposal the 1st time. If we receive an initial proposal that is awardable, discussions may not be opened.

PROPOSAL REQUIREMENTS

The Government intends to evaluate proposals and award a contract without discussions with offerors (except clarifications as described in FAR 15.306(a)). Therefore, the offeror’s initial proposal should contain the offeror’s best terms from a price and technical standpoint. The Government reserves the right to conduct discussions if the Contracting Officer later determines them to be necessary.

No mandatory requirement for the use of Project Labor Agreement (PLA) for this project.

Project: Equipment Concentration Site [Warehouse + AMSA + MEP lot] Location: Ft Carson, CO Acquisition: OTA - Construction Management At Risk

Construct an Equipment Concentration Site (ECS) on Fort Carson, CO. Primary facilities include an Area Maintenance Support Activity (AMSA) shop and General Purpose (GP) Warehouse. Facilities will be designed in accordance with the Army Reserve Design Guide. Supporting facilities include land clearing, general site improvements, organizational parking, non-organizational parking, concrete parking, concrete aprons, vehicle wash rack/platform, bi-level equipment loading ramp, fencing, walks, signage, curbs and gutters, storm drainage, SATS Trailer canopy, information systems, and utility connections. Supporting Facilities costs are higher than average due to special building foundations, extensive pavements, improved surfaces, site clearing, and excavation costs associated with developing the 48-acre parcel of land. Sustainability/Energy and cybersecurity measures are included.

Project: New Training Barracks Location: Ft Hunter-Liggett, CA Acquisition: OTA – Progressive Design Build

The primary scope of work delivers four (4) CTE Barracks and one (1) IPIMT Barracks to restore modern housing capabilities to the installation. The four (4) CTE Barracks will each span approximately 46,000 square feet, utilizing open-bay configurations equipped with integrated officer sleeping rooms, team rooms, laundry facilities, restrooms, showers, storage, and janitorial closets.

Complementing these collective spaces, the single 45,000-square-foot IPIMT Barracks will provide individual sleeping quarters with private bathrooms, study/day rooms, laundry rooms, storage, and janitorial closets.

Also, part of this project is to completely demolish and dispose of the five existing legacy multi-story barracks that have exceeded their useful life. This comprehensive replacement directly resolves critical facility deficits, bringing Fort Hunter Liggett's training housing into full alignment with modern operational requirements.
