1.1. Offerors that intend to submit a proposal as a Prime Contractor shall submit a written non-binding notice of intent to the Contract Specialist, by email, at sean.t.mcgovern@navy.mil within eighteen (18) days of the solicitation release date. An informational copy shall also be sent to the Contracting Officer at daniel.belcher@navy.mil.

1.2. It is the Offeror's responsibility to bring to the attention of the Contracting Officer at the earliest possible time, but prior to the closing date, any ambiguities, discrepancies, inconsistencies, or conflicts between the SOW and other solicitation documents attached hereto or incorporated by reference. All questions shall be submitted to the Contract Specialist, by email, at sean.t.mcgovern@navy.mil within fourteen (14) days after issuance of this solicitation. An informational copy shall also be sent to the Contracting Officer at daniel.belcher@navy.mil.

1.3. Any questions received after fourteen (14) days after issuance of this solicitation may not be addressed and may not result in an extension to the proposal due date.

An informational copy shall also be sent to the Contracting Officer at daniel.belcher@navy.mil.

1.4. Price will not be evaluated in this solicitation in accordance with FAR 15.304(c)(1)(ii). Therefore, the Government intends to award to all qualifying Offerors in response to this solicitation. A qualifying Offeror must be deemed a responsible source (see FAR 9.104-1), and submit a technically acceptable proposal conforming to the requirements of this solicitation. Any Offeror who receives a No Confidence rating for either evaluation factor will not be considered technically acceptable. If the Contracting Officer determines that it is in the best interest of the Government, the Government may cease to continue evaluation of a proposal after assigning a “No Confidence” rating for Factor 1. In order to expedite the responsibility determination required by FAR 9.103(b), provide documentation of the Offeror’s adequate financial resources, or the ability to obtain them (FAR 9.104-3(a)). This documentation will only be used to establish responsibility in the event of contract award, and will NOT be used to evaluate pricing in subsequent Task Orders.

1.5. Offerors shall not submit more than one offer in response to this solicitation, and only offers submitted in accordance with these instructions will be accepted.

1.6. Proposals shall be clear and concise, and shall include sufficient detail to permit the Government to adequately evaluate and substantiate proposal statements.

1.7. The Government reserves the right to cancel this solicitation at any point before contract award. In the event this solicitation is canceled, the Government has no obligation to reimburse Offerors for any costs incurred.

1.8. The total magnitude for each construction project will be disclosed with each individual Task Order Request, but will not exceed $6 million for construction or $7.5 million for repairs.

1.9. This requirement is set-aside for HUBZone Small Business Concerns. Proposals from other Offerors will not be considered.

The notification email shall include the name and email address of the Offeror representative submitting the proposal. Twenty one (21) days after the solicitation release date the Government will send a ‘drop-off request’ through DoD SAFE to the Offeror email provided. This request will provide the link required to submit proposals. It is the Offeror’s responsibility to confirm receipt once proposals are submitted.

001100 TECHNICAL FACTORS AND BASIS FOR AWARD

1. BEST VALUE SOURCE SELECTION FACTORS

Each proposal will be evaluated on two separate Factors. The distinction between the two Factors is described as follows:

1. Prior Experience - pertains to whether or not the Offeror has previously performed work that is similar to the type of work covered by this requirement in terms of size, scope, and complexity. Size refers to contract/task order/project dollar value and duration; scope refers to work that is the same or similar to that identified in Section 010100 Scope of Services; and complexity refers to performance challenges and environmental conditions similar to that expected for the facilities and conditions described by the solicitation. Prior Experience assesses the Offeror’s ability to perform the work successfully based on whether similar work has been performed in the past. An Offeror without demonstrated prior experience may be rated less favorably than an Offeror with such prior experience.

2. Past Performance - pertains to how well an Offeror has performed on its demonstrated prior experience.

Past Performance assesses the risk of doing business with an Offeror based on the quality of performance on similar efforts in the past, if any. Offerors without a record of Past Performance or for whom information on Past Performance is not available will be evaluated neither favorably nor unfavorably.

2. FACTOR 1 – PRIOR EXPERIENCE

2.1 Corporate Summary: Provide an overview of the Offeror’s corporate or business history. Include answers to the following questions as applicable:

1. How long has the Offeror been in the construction business?

2. Where do the majority of the Offeror’s construction projects occur?

3. What licenses or certifications are held by the Offeror?

4. What industry awards have the Offeror received?

5. Has the Offeror received any citations, lawsuits, or prosecutions?

2.2 The Offeror shall submit no more than five construction projects that best demonstrate prior experience on projects that are similar in size, scope, and complexity to the projects that will be ordered under this MACC. All submissions shall be for projects performed by the Offeror within the last five years of the issue date of this RFP and may be for military, federal, state and local government, or private projects. Projects may have been performed as a Prime or Sub-contractor, however projects performed as a Sub-contractor will be valued less than those performed as a Prime. All projects shall be single tasks, contracts, or jobs. Offerors shall not submit whole IDIQ contracts as a single project.

2.3 The projects submitted under this Factor shall include the following:

1. Contract/Task Order number, Project title

2. Contract Type, dollar value, and location of the work performed

3. If work was performed as a Prime or Sub-contractor

4. Project Completion Date (or indicate if ongoing)

5. Description of any licenses/qualifications required for performance

6. Clear description of the size, scope, and complexity of the work performed for the project and the project’s similarity to the requirements of the RFP. The Government is not bound by the Offeror’s opinion in determining similarity.

7. How the company’s learning and experience from the project will provide value to the Government.

2.4 The prior experience confidence rating, as defined in the table below, is the evaluation of the Offeror’s demonstrated ability to successfully perform the contract’s requirements, based on Prior Experience information.

3. FACTOR 2 – PAST PERFORMANCE

3.1 For each project submitted for prior experience, Offerors shall provide a reference for the Offeror familiar with the project who can confirm the quality of the Offeror’s work on the project. References shall include the following items:

1. Contract/Task Order number, Project title

2. Name, telephone numbers, and e-mail for the reference

3.2 The Government may also use other information such as CPARS data available from Government sources to evaluate an Offeror’s past performance. Offerors may submit other evaluations for projects where CPARS was not utilized. The Government reserves the right to limit or expand the number of references it decides to contact and to contact references other than those provided by the Offeror.

3.3 The past performance confidence rating, as defined in the table below, is the evaluation of the Offeror’s demonstrated ability to successfully perform the contract’s requirements, based on past performance information.

3.4 Adverse Past Performance is defined as Past Performance information that supports 1) a less than satisfactory rating; or 2) any unfavorable comments received from sources without a formal rating system that cause evaluator concern. When a performance record indicates performance problems, the Government will consider the number

Rating Description

High Confidence Based on the Offeror’s prior experience record, the Government has high confidence that the Offeror understands the requirement and will be successful in performing the work.

Some Confidence Based on the Offeror’s prior experience record, the Government has reasonable confidence that the Offeror understands the requirement and will be successful in performing the work.

Low Confidence Based on the Offeror’s prior experience record, the Government has low confidence that the Offeror understands the requirement and will be successful in performing the work.

No Confidence Based on the Offeror’s prior experience record, the Government has no confidence that the Offeror understands the requirement and will be successful in performing the work.

Rating Description Substantial Confidence

Based on the Offeror’s performance record, the Government has a high expectation that the Offeror will successfully perform the required effort.

Satisfactory Confidence

Based on the Offeror’s performance record, the Government has a reasonable expectation that the Offeror will successfully perform the required effort.

Limited Confidence

Based on the Offeror’s performance record, the Government has a low expectation that the Offeror will successfully perform the required effort.

No Confidence Based on the Offeror’s performance record, the Government has no expectation that the Offeror will be able to successfully perform the required effort.

Unknown Confidence (Neutral)

No performance record is available or the Offeror’s performance record is so sparse that no meaningful confidence assessment rating can be reasonably assigned.

and severity of the problems and the appropriateness and effectiveness of any corrective actions taken (not just planned or promised). The Government may review more recent contracts or performance evaluations to ensure corrective actions have been implemented and to evaluate their effectiveness. In accordance with FAR 15.306(b)(4), if a competitive range is to be established, communications must be held with any Offeror who will be excluded from competition because of adverse Past Performance information, unless the Offeror has previously had the opportunity to comment on such information.

3.5 Offerors without a record of Past Performance or for whom information on Past Performance is not available will not be evaluated favorably nor unfavorably, and as a result, will receive a “Neutral Confidence” rating for this Factor.
