The following have been added by full text:

PRE PROPOSAL INQUIRIES 66-140

66. Backflow Preventer: In document: ATTACHMENT J 1502000-19 FACILITY INVESTMENT under IRRIGATION SYSTEM the requirement is to service and maintain Backflow Preventer based on manufacturers’ recommended procedures, standards. Based on manufacturer’s recommendation and HOST NATION regulations no special certification is needed for technicians performing this type of service. Could you confirm this? If not what type of certification do you require?

See Par. 3.3.33 Plumbing of Section 1502000 C Facility Investment.

67. Conflicting Information: In Attachment J-1503050-04, there is a difference between “prestige areas”, “all improved areas” and “recurring service areas only”. On the grounds maintenance site map, there is a difference between “improved grounds (COL 4)” and “unimproved grounds (COL4)”. Please identify, which type of area in Attachment J-1503050-04 relates to which of the areas on the grounds maintenance site map.

Prestige Areas are indicated as improved areas (green color) an unimproved grounds COL 4 (yellow color). See Grounds Inventory.

68. Reference ATTACHMENT J-1503010-03, page 7 of 15, COMMON OUTPUT LEVEL

STANDARDS. What does “4Y5” mean?

4Y5 Mean 4Y. See Note 5.

69. Reference ELIN A007AA. Is it a Government requirement to have the COL3 Additional Measures Level 1 services for region facilities performed at the COL 4 Base Measures frequencies? Or does the Government require the COL 3 Base Measures frequencies?

Provide additional services for Region Facilities from COL 3 to Level 1. Custodial COL3 Add Measures Level 1 (FX)

70. Reference ELIN A005 (REGION (CNRE) Grounds Maintenance & Landscaping) there are two ELINs for Improved Grounds and Unimproved Grounds, A005AA and A005AC. In ELIN A014 (Bureau of Medicine and Surgery (BUMED)) there is only one ELIN for Improved Grounds, ELIN A014AA, but no ELIN for unimproved Grounds. In the grounds inventory however there are unimproved grounds in the Bureau of Medicine and Surgery (BUMED). Same situation with ELIN A044 (USAF 725th Air Mobility Squadron (AMS)). Please clarify.

ELINs for Hospital, USAF 725th included one total cost for Grounds Maintenance Services (Improved Grounds and Unimproved Grounds).

71. Identify the Prestige Areas. Are the Prestige Areas all areas which are green in the Grounds Maintenance Map, called by the Government “Improved Grounds (COL 4)”?

All green areas are prestige areas.

72. Identify the areas in the grounds inventory list belonging to ELIN A0081AA (NAVFAC NWCF, Grounds Maintenance & Landscaping (Spec Items 3.1, 3.2)).

UEM (NAVFACNWCF) and ADMIN (NAVFAC NWCF).

611 & 624” in the grounds inventory list are all belonging to ELIN A005 (REGION (CNRE)).

Confirmed.

74. Reference the ground inventory. UEM with building 64 and 3201 have 9700 SM ground to be maintained. What ELIN is UEM associated with?

UEM (NAVFAC NWCF).

75. Reference the ground inventory, ADMIN with building 59 has 4980 SM ground to be maintained.

What ELIN is ADMIN associated with?

ADMIN (NAVFAC NWCF).

76. How many tonnes of waste are collected in a year?

2,039,710 kgs

Proposal Due Date: The last day for submittal of PPIs is 29 June 2014. Government response will come after that date, i.e. less than one week before proposal due date on 06 July 2014. This does not allow offerors enough time to incorporate changes and prepare adequate pricing for a complex procurement requirement as this BOS Rota is. This timeframe significantly limits opportunities for fair competition of a public procurement vehicle. We kindly request an extension of the proposal due date till 30 days after the site visit (on 25 June) to allow offerors the needed time to complete their proposals.

The U.S. Government has extended the proposal due date to July 7, 2014, 9:00 a.m. Central European Summer Time.

77. Birthday List. Referencing Amendment #002 the Government responded that current contractor would provide the list of employees subject to transfer upon individual request. At the site visit today the Government said that this list will be provided by the Government. Please clarify, and if the first one applies please provide contact information to the current contractor.

Level A has a different frequency than COL 3. See Section J.

80. Custodial service: We need the hospital area (21.315 sqm) disaggregated in: high risk, medium risk and low risk.

See provided hospital drawings.

81. Custodial service: We need the current contractor provides us the Host Nation Labor Law that applies in NAS Rota and the list of employees to transfer.

92. We have seen that the proposal due date is a Sunday so we asked whether this is a mistake and if given the festive July 4th may delay the delivery date.

The U.S. Government has extended the proposal due date to July 7, 2014, 9:00 a.m. Central European Summer Time.

93. On the other hand still has not published the list of current workers so we estimate it is necessary to delay a few day the date of bid submission.

94. To evaluate facility investment costs we need current occupancy data base housing and occupancy data scheduled for the coming months and 2015.

CHOCs will be ordered as needed by housing. No additional information is available.

95. Subject: Proposal Due Date Amendment 0002 changes the proposal due date from July 2nd to July 6th

96. Subject: Housing Occupation Information At the site visit held on June 25th 2014 we noticed that the Housing Area is mostly unoccupied. It is unclear whether the houses are going to be renovated or not, and if so, when.

No.

SECTION A - SOLICITATION/CONTRACT FORM

The required response date/time has changed from 06-Jul-2014 02:00 PM to 07-Jul-2014 09:00 AM.

SECTION M - EVALUATION FACTORS FOR AWARD

The following have been modified:

BASIS OF EVALUATION

The U.S. Government (Government) reserves the right to eliminate from consideration for award any or all offers at any time prior to award of the contract; to negotiate with offerors in the competitive range; and to award the contract to the offeror submitting the lowest priced, technically acceptable offer.

The Government intends to evaluate proposals and award a contract without discussions with offerors (except clarifications as described in FAR 15.306(a)). The Government reserves the right to conduct discussions if the Contracting Officer later determines them to be necessary. In addition, if the Contracting Officer determines that the number of proposals that would otherwise be in the competitive range exceeds the number at which an efficient competition can be conducted, the Contracting Officer may limit the number of proposals in the competitive range to the greatest number that will permit an efficient competition among the most highly rated proposals.

The LPTA process is selected as appropriate for this acquisition because the most advantageous is expected to result from selection of the technically acceptable proposal with the lowest evaluated price.

An overall non-price factors rating must be at least “ACCEPTABLE” in order to be eligible for award. An “UNACCEPTABLE” rating in any factor results in the overall non-price factors proposal being rated “UNACCEPTABLE” unless corrected through discussions. An overall non-price factors rating of “UNACCEPTABLE” makes a proposal ineligible for award.

1. The solicitation requires the evaluation of price and the following non-price factors:

Factor 1 – Corporate Experience Factor 2 – Past Performance Factor 3 – Management Approach Factor 4 – Safety

The distinction between corporate experience and past performance is corporate experience pertains to the types of work and volume of work completed by a contractor that are comparable to the types of work covered by this requirement, in terms of size, scope and complexity. Past performance pertains to both the relevance of recent efforts and how well a contractor has performed on the contracts.

2. Basis of Evaluation and Submittal Requirements for Price and Each Factor.

(i) Solicitation Submittal Requirements:

Offerors shall submit three relevant and recent contracts performed by the offeror as a prime contractor or joint venture member. For each project the offeror shall complete the Contract Data Sheet included as Attachment B. All information shall be provided as requested on the form.

For purposes of this evaluation, a relevant project is defined as a United States (US) Government Department of Defense Base Operations support services contract having at least:

1) Two technical specifications other than Technical Specification 0100000 - General Information and Technical Specification 0200000 - Management and Administration listed in this Solicitation's Performance Work Statement, such as (for example only) Technical Specification 1502000 - Facility Investment and Technical Specification 1503010 - Custodial Services. Be advised that a project submitted with only Technical Specification 0100000 - General Information and Technical Specification 0200000 - Management and Administration shall not be considered to demonstrate relevant corporate experience.

3) A contract value of $3,000,000 US Dollars or greater per year; and

4) Be performed in the past eight years from the proposal due date.

Joint Venture offerors must include at least one relevant contract for each partner, where each partner performed as the prime contractor by itself or as part of a joint venture.

IMPORTANT: It is the offeror’s responsibility to clearly explain and demonstrate to the Government how its work experience, and the experience of each teaming partner (if applicable) in each submitted project is relevant to the performance work statement in this solicitation. If the offeror does not clearly explain how its experience(s) are relevant to the contract requirements in this specification, the Government may interpret that to mean that the submitted contract experience is not relevant.

The contracts may be contracts completed only for the U.S. Government. Each contract submission shall not exceed two 8.5” x 11” or equivalent page sizes, single-sided, 11 point font, in addition to the Contract Data Sheet, Attachment B.

� Be performed in the past eight years from the proposal due date.

(2) Factor 2 – Past Performance:

The Offeror shall submit three past performance questionnaires or CPARS evaluations for the same three contracts submitted for Factor 1, Corporate Experience. If there is not a completed CPARS evaluation, the Past Performance Questionnaire (PPQ), Attachment A, included in the solicitation is provided for the offeror or its team to submit to the client for each project the offeror includes in its proposal for Factor 1, Corporate Experience. An offeror shall not submit a PPQ when a completed CPARS is available.

If a CPARS evaluation is not available, ensure correct phone numbers and email addresses are provided for the client point of contact. Completed PPQs should be submitted with your proposal. If the offeror is unable to obtain a completed PPQ from a client for a project(s) before proposal closing date, the offeror should complete and submit with the proposal the first page of the PPQ (Attachment A), which will provide contract and client information for the respective project(s). Offerors should follow-up with clients/references to ensure timely submittal of questionnaires. If the client requests, questionnaires may be submitted directly to the Government's point of contact, Kathryn Balonek, via email at kathryn.balonek@eu.navy.mil prior to proposal closing date. Offerors shall not incorporate by reference into their proposal PPQs or CPARS previously submitted for other RFPs.

However, this does not preclude the Government from utilizing previously submitted PPQ information in the past performance evaluation.

In addition to the above, the Government may review any other sources of information for evaluating past performance. Other sources may include, but are not limited to, past performance information retrieved through the Past Performance Information Retrieval System (PPIRS) using all CAGE/DUNS numbers of team members (partnership, joint venture, teaming arrangement, or parent company/subsidiary/affiliate) identified in the offeror’s proposal, inquiries of owner representative(s), and any other known sources not provided by the offeror.

While the Government may elect to consider data from other sources, the burden of providing detailed, current, accurate and complete past performance information rests with the Offeror.

The degree to which past performance evaluations and all other past performance information reviewed by the Government (e.g., PPIRS, Federal Awardee Performance and Integrity Information System (FAPIIS), Electronic Subcontract Reporting System (eSRS), performance recognition documents, and information obtained from any other source) reflect a trend of satisfactory performance considering:

- A pattern of successful completion of tasks;

- A pattern of deliverables that are timely and of good quality;

- A pattern of cooperativeness and teamwork with the Government at all levels (task managers, contracting officers, auditors, etc.);

- Recency of tasks that are identical to, similar to, or related to the task at hand.

To be rated acceptable, all three of the past performance ratings must be satisfactory or higher. Any one rating of marginal or lower will give the offeror an unacceptable rating for this factor. Offerors lacking relevant past performance history will not be evaluated favorably or unfavorably in past performance. In the context of acceptability/unacceptability, “unknown” shall be considered “acceptable.”

(3) Factor 3 – Management Approach:

The offeror shall clearly demonstrate its understanding of current industry standards, policies, procedures, and processes utilized in accomplishing the complexity and magnitude of service requirements set forth in the performance objectives and standards of the Performance Work Statement. The offeror shall address each of the following components separately:

1) Describe staffing levels and contract effort for the base year. The offeror must provide an organizational chart that demonstrates the total effort to include the prime contractor and all subcontractors for the base period for all technical specifications.

2) Subcontracting Plan – Provide a plan describing how you will manage subcontractor(s) across all technical specifications.

3) Describe your general strategy to accomplish the performance requirements to achieve performance objectives. Offerors must address at the minimum: 1) the requirement for Facilities Investment and 2) provide a summary for the training and certification requirements for the facility investment personnel.

4) Quality Control Management – Provide a summary “Quality Control Plan” that describes the methods to be used to document, measure, and control and improve the quality processes. The summary must also describe the plan for training employees in the quality processes.

5) Provide a phase-in plan limited to no more than 90 calendar days. The plan shall include: (a) a schedule for all key events; (b) personnel actions and responsibilities regarding employees at all levels; (c) acquisition, delivery, storage, inventory and disposal of equipment, working stock, and materials (to include inbound items as applicable).

The management approach submittal shall be limited to ten single sided 8-1/2” x 11” or equivalent page sizes, 11 point font, not including the organization chart in Item 1 and the schedule in Item 5(a)).

To receive an acceptable rating, the offeror’s management approach must demonstrate and provide the information required in the elements one through five as listed in the solicitation submittal requirements above. Offerors that do not demonstrate and provide the information required in all five elements will be rated unacceptable.

(4) Factor 4 – Safety:

The Offeror shall submit a narrative addressing the following information: (For a partnership or joint venture, the following shall address each contractor who is part of the partnership or joint venture; only one safety narrative is required.)

(a) Technical Approach for Safety:

Describe the offeror’s technical approach to safety for its employees as well as the plan that the offeror will implement to evaluate and measure safety performance of potential subcontractors, as a part of the selection process for all levels of subcontractors. The safety narrative shall be limited to two single sided 8-1/2” x 11” or equivalent page sizes, 11 point font.

The Government is seeking to determine if the offeror has consistently demonstrated a commitment to safety and that the offeror plans to properly manage and implement safety procedures for itself and its subcontractors. The Government will evaluate the offeror’s overall safety record and the Offeror’s plan to select and monitor subcontractors. The Government’s sources of information for evaluating safety may include, but are not limited to, Government agencies, OSHA, Contractor Incident Reporting System (CIRS) databases, and other related resources. While the Government may elect to consider data from other sources, the burden of providing detailed, current, accurate and complete safety information regarding these submittal requirements rests with the Offeror. The evaluation will collectively consider the following:

-Offeror’s technical approach to safety -Other sources of information available to the Government

(a) Offeror’s technical approach to safety narrative:

The Government will evaluate the narrative to determine the degree to which subcontractor safety performance will be considered in the selection of all levels of subcontractors on the upcoming project.

The offeror’s technical approach to safety narrative will be evaluated as acceptable if the following criteria are addressed in the narrative:

a. A comprehensive approach to safety for its employees.

b. An implementation plan to evaluate and measure safety performance of potential subcontractors.
