Required item 2: Only projects demonstrating charrette or Functional Analysis Concept Design (FACD) workshop effort with varied stakeholder groups will be considered services similar to those anticipated under this contract.

Submission requirements:

Provide up to a maximum of eight (8) projects completed (project completion to be defined below) within the past seven (7) years immediately preceding the date of issuance of this notice that best demonstrate specialized experience of the proposed team in the areas outlined above. Sufficient information to determine the date of completion of the project must be included in the project description or the project will not be considered. If more than the maximum number of projects is submitted, the Government will only evaluate projects up to the maximum number authorized in the order submitted.

NOTE: Date of project completion is defined as date of final design acceptance by client.

For DB RFP Preparation, date of project completion is the date of final RFP documents submission. For DB RFP representing Contractor as DOR, date of project completion is the date of final design acceptance to client. For Design Development/DD1391 and Studies/Investigations, date of project completion is the date of final submission of design development/DD1391 and/or report. A project may not be considered if insufficient information is provided to clearly show the date of completion.

All projects provided in the SF 330 must be completed by the actual office/branch/regional office/individual team member proposed to manage and perform work under this contract. Projects not meeting this requirement will be excluded from consideration in the evaluation.

For projects performed as a subcontractor or a joint venture involving different partners, specifically indicate the value of the work performed as a subcontractor or by those firms proposed for this contract, and identify the specific roles and responsibilities performed as a subcontractor or by those firms on the project rather than the work performed on the project as a whole.

If the project description does not clearly delineate the work performed by the entity/entities offering/teaming on this contract, the project could be eliminated from consideration. In block 25, clearly define professional service role in relationship to the owner.

NOTE: If the firm is a joint venture, projects performed by the joint venture should be submitted;

however, if there are no projects performed by the joint venture, projects must be submitted for each joint venture partner, not to exceed a total of eight (8) projects.
