2. Non-Price Factor 2 –Resource Capacity & Schedule:

Offerors must address three Emphasis Areas to demonstrate their ability to provide (a) manpower resources, (b) physical resource capacity, and (c) an executable schedule to complete the solicited requirements:

a) Emphasis Area A – Manpower: To assess the Offeror’s ability to provide efficient manpower to successfully complete the solicited availability, the Government requires the Offeror to provide specified workload data that contains historical workload performance and forecasted workload estimates.

(1) Manpower Performance Data Sheet (Attachment S-4): Provide a completed Manpower

Performance Data Sheet, (Attachment S-4) in Microsoft Excel in the format provided in this solicitation. Include all projects, defined as Navy or Non-Navy Ship Repair and New Construction Projects, for which the Offeror is the prime or a major subcontractor (performing 30% or more of a CNO availability or comparable portion of a Non-Navy project) which were active (on-going or completed) or planned (awarded or proposed) (including the proposal for this solicitation) during the first month identified in Attachment S-4 and the Contract Complete Date of this solicitation.

The Attachment S-4 must capture all work performed by the Offeror within the shipyard and at the local Naval Station, if the Offeror’s shipyard is within the homeport fleet concentration area. The Offeror may estimate performance information for subcontractors based on prime contractor budgets and the prime contractor’s actual outlays to subcontractors. Enter remaining growth work options in the distinguished column/row, using the phasing assumptions provided in Section B Note F.

The “Definitions” tab within Attachment S-4 defines the following terms: Contract / Actual / Forecast Start and Completion Date, Project Status, Time-now, Cumulative Earned Value, Time-phased Earned Value, Full Time Equivalents (FTE), Budget at Complete (BAC), Estimate at Complete (EAC), Budgeted Cost of Work Scheduled (BCWS), Budgeted Cost of Work Performed (BCWP), Budget to Complete (BTC), Actual Cost of Work Performed (ACWP), Estimate to Complete (ETC), Cost Performance Index (CPI), To-Complete Cost Performance Index (TCPI), Schedule Performance Index (SPI), Remaining Growth Options, New Work, Prime Contractor Labor, Overtime Labor, Subcontractor Labor, and Temporary Labor.

a) For each project, provide the Earned Value (hours) data on a time phased, month-by-month basis (month-ending) over each project’s duration, from the Actual / Forecast Start Dates to the Actual / Forecast Completion Dates.

b) For each project, verify the cumulative hour values calculated within the S-4 in the “Cumulative EV” tab align with internal earned value information. If the cumulative calculation does not align with the internal earned value information, then enter the value manually and “Insert Comment” to the manually adjusted cell that describes the discrepancy.

Provide the additional project related information requested in the “Cumulative EV” tab (all cells that are green).

c) Provide a list of holiday dates in the “Holiday Calendar” tab. If the monthly reporting dates associated with the monthly earned value data are not aligned to the calendar month, then provide the appropriate values for the “Month Start” and “Month End” in the “Monthly EV” tab (rows 3 and 4). This date information is necessary to convert the monthly hours data into monthly FTE as described in Attachment S-4.

(2) Manpower Charts: Provide manpower charts reflecting the data in Attachment S-4. The manpower charts must represent each project’s ACWP and ETC within the Actual / Forecast Start Date and Actual / Forecast Completion Date for each project provided in Attachment S-4. The manpower charts must show separate stacked areas for each project in the chart. The manpower charts must meet all format requirements stated in “Manpower Charts Format” tab within Attachment S-4. The “Manpower Charts Format” tab within Attachment S-4 includes an example manpower chart formatted to requirements. Provide the following manpower charts:

a) Manpower chart showing the total FTE resources required for all projects completed, on-going, awarded, the solicited availability and the Offeror’s remaining outstanding proposals, as provided in Attachment S-4.

b) Manpower chart showing the total FTE resources required for all projects completed, on-going, awarded, the solicited availability and the Offeror’s executable award scenario from the Offeror’s remaining outstanding proposals accounting for all un-mitigatable resource conflicts, as provided in Attachment S-4. This manpower chart is not required if it produces the same chart required in (2) a) above.

(3) Manpower Narrative: Provide a narrative to characterize the workload information from the manpower charts required in Section L, paragraph V.B.2a.2.a-b, by describing and quantifying the: historical yard-wide FTE levels, forecasted yard-wide FTE levels, and the composition of historical/forecasted FTE values for: prime straight, prime overtime, subcontracted, and temporary labor. The narrative must explain how and when the Offeror plans to adjust or maintain the current workforce to achieve the proposed forecasted FTE levels and whether the adjustment occurs via additional hiring, use of subcontractors, use of temporary labor, or overtime. Provide supporting data and historical evidence to the maximum extent possible. The narrative should not exceed 20 pages. Address the following possibilities:

a) Any existing constraints between outstanding proposals that would prohibit the Offeror from executing one or more outstanding proposals.

b) Should the Offeror propose to hire additional personnel for the solicited availability, the narrative must quantify the proposed number of hires and describe the plan to hire and manage the additional personnel from Time-now through Contract Completion Date.

c) Should the Offeror propose overtime for the solicited availability, the narrative must include: the historical overtime rate, the forecasted overtime rate, and the plan to manage and provide the overtime from Time-now through Contract Completion Date.

d) Should the Offeror propose temporary labor for the solicited availability, the narrative must include: the historical temporary labor FTE, the forecasted temporary labor FTE, and the plan to manage and provide the temporary labor from Time-now through Contract Completion Date.

e) Should the Offeror propose subcontracted resources for the solicited availability, the Offeror must explain which requirements the prime contractor will complete and which work the subcontractor will complete, including the work item, trade, and duration of each subcontracted requirement. The Government considers the use of subcontractors in excess of 45% of production labor to increase the risk of unsuccessful contract performance. The Offeror must include in its narrative a plan to manage the subcontractor manning levels included from Time-now through Contract Completion Date.

f) The Offeror must explain any atypical circumstances that caused or contributed to poor historical earned value performance. The Offeror must address how its proposed approach for the evaluated project reflects resiliency to atypical causes of risk (e.g.

government furnished material delays or foreseeable trade labor demand).

b) Emphasis Area B – Physical Resource Capacity:

(1) Complete Attachment S-8 Pier and Dry Dock Graphical Representation Template to demonstrate the Offeror has the pier and dry dock available to complete the requirements of the proposed availability. The Attachment S-8 must show (a) the piers and dry docks expected to be in working capacity by month from proposal submission through the Contract Completion Date in Attachment J-3 and (b) the awarded and outstanding projects and work using those resources by month. The Attachment S-8 must include:

a) The piers and dry-docks required to complete work the Offeror currently has under contract based on current contract schedules.

b) The piers and dry-docks required to complete all outstanding proposals, including this proposal, per proposed schedules.

c) The piers and dry-docks required to complete any other anticipated requirements, including but not limited to Non-Navy work, pier and dry-dock upgrades, maintenance or dredging.

(2) Provide a narrative not to exceed 10 pages to support the Attachment S-8 and address:

a) If the Offeror proposes a subcontracted pier or dry dock, explain the resource requirements that the prime contractor will provide and the pier and dry dock that the subcontractor will provide.

b) The Offeror's plan to resolve pier and dry dock resource conflicts as a result of proposed and awarded projects. Piers and dry docks must not be committed to multiple ships during the same time period without explanation.

c) If the Offeror proposes an interval of less than seven days between the unberthing or undocking date of another requirement and the proposed berthing or docking date of this availability or a proposed docking date within the first seven days of this availability, then detail the necessary steps to accomplish this effort.

c) Emphasis Area C - Production Schedule:

(1) Develop a Production Schedule in accordance with the following requirements:

a) Include Key Events, Milestones, tests

b) Schedule each Work Item to the Work Activity level, listing the planned start and planned completion dates, and durations for each Work Activity.

c) Assign each Work Activity with the appropriate predecessor and successor relationships within the contractor’s scheduling software that establish the logic relationship between schedule Work Activities. Each activity must have at least one predecessor and one successor, with the exception of the Key Event Start Availability (which may have no predecessors) and the Key Event Complete Availability (which may have no successors).

Each Event and Activity may have more than one predecessor and more than one successor. The preferred relationships between linked predecessor and successor activities is Finish-to-Start. The use of scheduling Lags and Leads should be minimized.

d) Assign appropriate predecessor relationships to each Key Event and Milestone(s) to ensure there is an accurate logical progression through all work activities leading to their assigned Key Event and Milestone(s), ensure milestones are linked to the Key Events they support, and ensure the Production Schedule supports accurate prediction of Key Event and Milestone(s) attainment.

e) Assign appropriate predecessor and successor relationships between the Work Activities conducted on the same component, or in the same location but under differing Work Items, to ensure all related Work Activities across all Work Items are interdependently linked together.

f) Schedule production work and preliminary inspections generating reports required by Attachment J-10 that could result in a change in work to be accomplished or additional material to be procured to support reporting no later than the first 20 percent of the availability duration.

(2) Provide an export of the Production Schedule data elements in a sortable/filterable spreadsheet format compatible with Microsoft Excel. Include the following minimum data elements for each Work Activity in the schedule, as appropriate:

a) Work Item Number (as appropriate): 4-E specification Work Item number

b) Work Activity Identifier: Numerical designator identifying the Work Activity within the

Work Breakdown Structure (WBS)

c) Title: Descriptive title of Work Item and Work Activity

d) Key Event: Key Event applicable to the Work Activity

e) Milestone (as appropriate): Milestone applicable to the Work Activity

f) System (as appropriate): System(s) affected

h) Location: Work location/compartment number

i) Executing Activity: ID specific organization: Prime KTR, Sub-KTR

j) Baseline Start: The date identified in the Production Schedule when the contractor plans to start the Work Activity

k) Baseline Finish: The date identified in the Production Schedule when the contractor plans to finish the Work Activity

l) Early Start: Software determined date. The earliest point in time that a Work Activity may start based on the Production Schedule network logic and any other schedule constraints. Early start dates may change as the availability progresses.

m) Early Finish: Software determined date. The earliest point in time that a Work Activity may complete based on the Production Schedule network logic and any other schedule constraints. Early start dates may change as the availability progresses.

n) Late Start: Software determined date. The latest point in time that a Work Activity may begin without delaying the applicable Milestone or Key Event based on the Production Schedule network logic.

o) Late Finish: Software determined date. The latest point in time that a Work Activity may be completed without delaying the applicable Milestone or Key Event based on the Production Schedule network logic.

p) Duration: The total number of work periods required to complete a Work Activity.

q) Calendar Identification: Number of scheduled workdays per week

r) Total Float: The total number of workdays that the Contractor can delay a Work Activity without affecting the project finish date.

s) Predecessor: An Activity or Event that immediately precedes one or more Activities or

Events with a direct tie in the Total Project Network.

t) Successor: An Activity or Event that immediately follows one or more Activities or

Events with a direct tie in the Total Project Network.

u) Constraints: Constraints used as applicable to Work Item or Work Activity. This may be provided within the predecessor or successor field.

(3) Provide the Proposed Production Schedule in the Native Software file

(4) Provide the Proposed Production Schedule in a time-oriented Gantt chart format that shows all work item activities, milestones and key events within the Production Schedule.

(5) Provide the Proposed Production Schedule in a time-oriented Gantt chart format that shows only Critical Path and Controlling Work Items at the Work Activity level and assigned Key Events and/or Milestones.

a) Critical Path: That sequence of Work Activities which forms the work and test chain of the longest duration, and directly affects the completion of the availability. Factors that influence when a Work Activity is on the Critical Path include: time duration required for the Work Activity, space limitations, manpower available, and the predecessor/successor relationships between Work Activities. The Critical Path is determined by automated schedule analysis and will include any sequential set of Work Activities forming the longest chain of events extending throughout the schedule and which has the least Total Float.

b) Controlling Work Items: Those Work Items which include activities that are on the critical path of the Production Schedule, which, by virtue of scope, material requirements, complexity, or other considerations, have the significant potential for impact on the scheduled project Key Events or completion of the availability.

(6) The Offeror shall provide a narrative to explain their Production Schedule. The narrative shall address the following:

a) Describe critical float paths and mention the work items that the Offeror estimates as the most critical and pose the most risk.

b) Demonstrate how the Offeror has scheduled the performance of all work items included in the Availability work package (including both Base and Option items) so as to permit the contract scope increases described in Section B, Note F (all growth work identified in this solicitation) without causing delay or disruption to the work required by the aforementioned work items, to any other Government contract, or to any other work in progress for the Government.

3. Non-Price Factor 3 – Past Performance:

In the Past Performance Volume, the Offeror shall demonstrate through submission of its Attachment S-9 (Past Performance Questionnaire) its performance on efforts of similar size, scope, and complexity that the Offeror will be able to perform the requirements outlined in this solicitation. The Offeror may provide up to five (5) recent and relevant contracts depicting its past performance and qualifications. The Offeror should submit contract information for recent (within five years of the proposal submission date) and relevant (Government ship repair) contracts.

Where the Offeror does not have recent and relevant past performance information, the Offeror shall affirmatively state that it does not have recent and relevant past performance information for the Government to consider.

NOTE: The Government reserves the right to use the contract information provided in the Offeror’s proposal to obtain data from other sources, such as the Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS) database, and from the points of contact identified by the Offeror in its proposal.

The Offeror is responsible for ensuring their customers complete the Past Performance Questionnaires and return them before the closing date of this solicitation.

SECTION M - EVALUATION FACTORS FOR AWARD

EVALUATION FACTORS FOR AWARD

I. GENERAL

A. The Government intends to award a Fixed-Price contract for the completion of the USS MUSTIN (DDG

89) FY22 DMP to the Offeror whose proposal represents the Best Value to the Government.

B. Offerors are advised that the Government intends to make award on the basis of initial proposals without conducting discussions with Offerors, but reserves the right to conduct discussions if determined by the Contracting Officer to be necessary (see paragraph (f)(4) of FAR 52.215-1). Therefore, each initial offer should contain the Offeror’s best terms from a price and technical standpoint.

C. Offerors are advised that the Government will not evaluate any proposal information not contained within the body of the proposal.

II. BASIS OF AWARD

A. The Government will select the best overall offer, based upon an assessment of Volume I, Factor 1 and Volume II, Factors 1-3. A contract shall be awarded to the Offeror who is deemed responsible in accordance with FAR 9.104, whose proposal conforms to the RFP’s requirements (to include all stated terms, conditions, representations, certifications, and all other information required by Section L of this solicitation) and represents the best value to the Government utilizing trade-off source selection procedures, in accordance with FAR 15.101-1 and the evaluation criteria.

1. As part of its responsibility determination in accordance with FAR 9.104, the Government will evaluate whether the Offeror holds a current MSRA or MSRA equivalency. In accordance with FAR

9.103 (b), in the absence of information clearly indicating a prospective Offeror is responsible, the contracting officer will make a determination of non-responsibility.

B. The best value basis for award will be based on the following evaluation factors:

1. Price Factor

a) Factor 1: Price

2. Non-Price Factors

a) Factor 1: Technical Eligibility

b) Factor 2: Resource Capacity & Schedule

a. Emphasis Area A: Manpower

b. Emphasis Area B: Physical Resource Capacity

c. Emphasis Area C: Production Schedule

c) Factor 3: Past Performance mailto:jaclyn.v.evans.civ@us.navy.mil

C. Ratings will be applied to Non-Price Factors as follows:

a) Non-Price Factors 1 and 3 in terms of acceptable or unacceptable

b) An overall adjectival rating from section IV below for Non-Price Factor 2.

D. The Government will first evaluate Non-Price Factor 1, Technical Eligibility, for acceptability. If an Offeror is found to be unacceptable for Factor 1 or Factor 3, then the Government reserves the right not to conduct additional evaluation. Non-Price Factor 2 is considered significantly more important than the Price Factor. The Government will not assign adjectival ratings to Factor 2 emphasis areas. The importance of price as an evaluation factor will increase as the difference in Non-Price Factor 2 among competing proposals decreases. This may result in an award to a higher rated, higher priced Offeror, where the decision is consistent with the evaluation factors, and the Source Selection Authority (SSA) reasonably determines that the benefits associated with award to the higher price Offeror outweigh the difference in price. The SSA will base the source selection decision on an assessment of proposals against all source selection criteria in the solicitation.

III. EVALUATION FACTOR DESCRIPTIONS

A. Cost/Price Factor 1 - Price

1. The Government will assess price proposals in accordance with FAR 15.404 to determine reasonableness of proposed pricing based on the information contained in the Pricing Workbook (Attachment J-4). The Government will not conduct a price realism analysis on any aspect of an Offeror’s price proposal.

Although award will be made based on an Offeror’s total price, a price proposal that is found unreasonable and/or unbalanced may be rejected. Unbalanced pricing exists when, despite an acceptable total evaluated price, the price of one or more contract line items is significantly overstated or understated.

2. Total evaluated price for the availability shall be calculated by adding:

a) The price of all Base and Option contract line item numbers (CLIN) (this amount shall match the total price of all work items),

b) Contractor’s Fully burdened Ship Repair Labor Rate & Material Burden Rates as applied to all Growth Reservation CLINS (Base and Option) and New Work,

c) The price of the Extension Day Rates as listed in Attachment J-4,

d) As applicable, the value of the inter-port differential (as identified in Section…
