About this file

This document is an attachment providing instructions for completing a Sustainability Factor Table related to a federal contract opportunity. The table requires offerors to commit to meeting specific Global Warming Potential (GWP) limits for various construction materials, including concrete, cement, asphalt, and steel, as part of the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) requirements. Offerors will receive raw scores and weighted scores based on the IRA limits they commit to meeting, which will be evaluated as part of the contract award. The related federal contract opportunity is for the Hilfiker Wall Repairs Project at the Land Port of Entry in Sault Ste. Marie, Michigan, with an estimated range of $1,000,000 to $5,000,000. The procurement is set aside for small businesses, and the construction contractor will be required to provide Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs) for the proposed low embodied carbon concrete, cement, and steel materials.

Offeror Instructions

SUSTAINABILITY FACTOR INSTRUCTIONS TO OFFERORS
1. Offerors shall complete Column B of the Sustainability Table with the applicable IRA Limit they commit to meet for each IRA-Eligible Material.

NOTE: If an offeror is utilizing multiple manufacturers/suppliers within one LEC material subcategory, and those materials achieve different GSA GWP limits, they shall, for evaluation purposes, self-score based on the material/product offered that has the highest GWP. (For example: within the 4,000 PSI concrete subcategory, if Offeror A's 4,000 PSI structural concrete meets GSA’s Top 40% GWP limit, and their 4,000 PSI site concrete meets GSA’s Top 20% limit, Offeror A shall use Top 40% in their scoring.)

2. Based upon the offeror's committment, the offeror will receive a number of Raw Scores in Column C, one for each IRA-Eligible Material required by the Contract. Column C will be automatically populated based on the offeror's input in Column B, as follows:

- Offerors will receive a Raw Score of 100 for each IRA-Eligible Material commitment that is better (lower) than GSA’s Top 20% Limits.

- Offerors will receive a Raw Score of 40 for each IRA-Eligible Material commitment that is only better (lower) than GSA’s Top 40% Limits.

- Offerors will receive a Raw Score of 20 for each IRA-Eligible Material commitment that is only better (lower) than GSA’s Better Than Average Limit.

3. The solicitation provides an LEC Materials Evaluation Weight in Column D. This weight will be multipled by the Raw Score (Column C), to automatically calculate the Weighted Score in Column D. which will be automatically calculated based on the Raw Score. The Weighted Score for each material will be rounded to the nearest hundredth decimal (i.e., two decimal places to the right of the whole number).
4. The Total Weighted Score will automatically add the Weighted Score for each material, rounded to the nearest hundredth decimal.
