DESCRIPTION OF WORK

This acquisition is for design-bid-build (DBB) construction services for the repair of the North and South Helix House Ice Shields located in Cutler, Maine. The project repairs the North and South Helix House Ice Shields through replacement. In total three (3) new Ice Shields each will be replaced. Steel components utilizing a corrosion resistant finish will be used in order to fight future corrosion buildup from constant exposure to the salt air.

Each Helix House has three ice shields; one at each end of the building located above the roof. The ice shields consist of exposed structural steel frames that cantilever out and over each of the bushings and antenna cabling to protect them from falling ice. Their primary function is to protect the communications ceramic bushing hub from large chunks of ice routinely falling from approximately 875' above. The communications ceramic bushing hub is the critical distribution point for cabling from the Helix House to the surrounding antenna array. The ice shields were inspected and found to be in an advanced state of deterioration with significant structural failures to key components of the ice shields.

Key components to be repaired include: temporary support, scaffolding, roof protection, testing and inspections, cranes, ice shield plate and supports, structural frames and trusses, corrosion resistant coating systems, column connections, roof patching, platforms and access ladders.

The completion date for the contract is 265 calendar days for the base price, with the period of performance being extended by 365 days if options 1 and/or 4 are exercised (includes 15 days for receipt and approval of required bonds and insurance) from the date of award. If Options 2 or 3 are exercised, the contract completion date remains the same.

BASIS FOR AWARD

1. The 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.

2. As stated in the solicitation, 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.

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

4. 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.

EVALUATION FACTORS FOR AWARD

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

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

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.

(ii) Comparison of proposed prices with the IGCE.

(iii) Comparison of proposed prices with available historical information.

(iv) Comparison of market survey results.

(b) Non-price Factors:

(1) Factor 1, Corporate Experience:

(i) Solicitation Submittal Requirements:

The offeror shall submit the following information:

Submit a minimum of two (2) up to a maximum of five (5) relevant construction projects for the offeror that best demonstrates your experience on relevant projects that are similar in size, scope and complexity to the RFP. For the purposes of this evaluation, a relevant project is further defined as:

Size: A project having a final construction cost of $5,000,000 or greater.

Scope: New construction or repair of heavy industrial, steel structures.

Complexity: Each project submitted does not require demonstrated experience with all of the following components, but collectively, they must demonstrate experience with all elements:

a) Complex structural steel fabrication, including modular structural assemblies;

b) Experience with elevated steel structures, requiring crane access and working at significant height (100’) during erection (e.g. bridges, towers, etc.);

Projects submitted for the offeror shall be completed within the past seven (7) years of the date of issuance of this RFP.

A project is defined as a construction project performed under a single task order or contract. For multiple award and indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity type contracts, the contract as a whole shall not be submitted as a project; rather offerors shall submit the work performed under a task order as a project.

The attached Construction Experience Project Data Sheet (Attachment A) is MANDATORY and SHALL be used to submit project information. Except as specifically requested, the Government will not consider information submitted in addition to this form. Individual blocks on this form may be expanded; however, total length for each project data sheet shall not exceed two (2) double-sided pages (or four (4) single-sided pages).

For all submitted projects, the description of the project shall clearly describe the scope of work performed and the relevancy to the project requirements of this RFP (i.e., unique features, area, construction methods).

If the offeror is a Joint Venture (JV), relevant project experience should be submitted for projects completed by the Joint Venture entity. If the Joint Venture does not have shared experience, projects may be submitted for the Joint Venture members. Offerors who fail to submit experience for all Joint Venture members may be rated lower. Offerors are still limited to a total of five (5) projects combined.

If an offeror is utilizing experience information of affiliates/subsidiaries/parent/LLC/LTD member companies (name is not exactly as stated on the SF1442), the proposal shall clearly demonstrate that the affiliate/subsidiary/parent firm will have meaningful involvement in the performance of the contract.

Experience of proposed subcontractors will not be considered.

(ii) Basis of Evaluation:

The basis of evaluation will include the offeror’s demonstrated experience and depth of experience in performing relevant construction as defined in the solicitation submittal requirements. The assessment of the offeror’s relevant experience will be used as a means of evaluating the capability of the offeror to successfully meet the requirements of the RFP. The Government will only review five (5) projects total.

Any projects submitted in excess of the five (5) for Corporate Experience will not be considered. An offeror that does not submit a minimum of two (2) relevant projects as defined above will receive a rating of “Unacceptable” and will not be eligible for award.

(2) Factor 2, Safety

The offeror shall submit the following information: (For a partnership or joint venture, the following submittal requirements are required for each contractor who is part of the partnership or joint venture;

however, only one safety narrative is required. EMR, DART and TRC Rates shall not be submitted for subcontractors.)

(a) Experience Modification Rate (EMR): Include three previous complete calendar years’ worth of data. This rate compares company’s annual losses in insurance claims against its policy premiums.

Any extenuating circumstances that affect the EMR and negative trends should be addressed as part of the factor submission.

(b) OSHA Days Away from Work, Restricted Duty, or Job Transfer (DART) Rate: Submit three previous complete calendar years’ worth of data. If an offeror cannot submit an OSHA DART, for any year, affirmatively state so and an explanation must be provided. Any extenuating circumstances that affected the OSHA and DART data negatively must be addressed as part of this factor submission.

(c) Total Recordable Case (TRC) Rate: Submit three previous complete calendar years’ worth of data. If an offeror cannot submit TRC rates, for any year, affirmatively state so and an explanation must be provided. Any extenuating circumstances that affected the TRC rate data negatively must be addressed as part of this factor submission.

(d) Technical Approach for Safety: The technical approach to safety narrative shall be limited to one (1) double-sided page (or two (2) single-sided pages), and must address all items below.

1. The offeror shall describe the plan for safety that will be implemented to evaluate safety performance of potential subcontractors as part of the selection process for all levels of subcontractors.

2. The offeror shall fully describe the safety management system that they will use to oversee the safety compliance and performance of self-performed and subcontractor performed work.

3. The offeror shall describe any innovative methods that will be employed to ensure and monitor safe work practices at self-performed and/or all subcontractor levels.

4. The offeror shall describe their methodology to execute an effective program that facilitates sound mishap prevention techniques and processes, employee reporting of unsafe conditions, unsafe activities, and near-miss mishaps.

(ii) Basis of Evaluation: The evaluation will collectively consider the following:

Experience Modification Rate (EMR) OSHA Days Away from Work, Restricted Duty, or Job Transfer (DART) Total Recordable Case (TRC) Rates Offeror Technical Approach to Safety Other sources of information available to the Government

(a) Experience Modification Rate (EMR): For the three previous complete calendar years the offeror will submit EMR. If no EMR exists, the offeror may submit an insurance company-provided equivalent rate explaining why not. If an insurance company-provided equivalent rate is provided, it will be treated the same as an EMR. Any extenuating circumstances that affected the EMR and negative trends should be addressed as part of this selection factor. The board will evaluate the EMR to determine if the Offeror has demonstrated a history of safe work practices taking into account any negative trends and extenuating circumstances that impact the rating.

(b) OSHA Days Away from Work, Restricted Duty, or Job Transfer (DART) Rates: For the three previous complete calendar years, the offeror will submit their OSHA DART, as defined by the U.S. Department of Labor, Occupational Safety and Health Administration. If unable to submit OSHA DART rates, affirmatively state so, and an explanation must be provided. Any extenuating circumstances that affected the OSHA DART data and negative trends should be addressed as part of this element. The board will evaluate the OSHA DART rates to determine if the Offeror has demonstrated a history of safe work practices taking into account any upward trends and extenuating circumstances that impact rates.

(c) Total Recordable Case (TRC) Rates: For the three previous complete calendar years, the offeror will submit their TRC, as defined by the U.S. Department of Labor, Occupational Safety and Health Administration. If unable to submit TRC rates, affirmatively state so, and an explanation must be provided. Any extenuating circumstances that affected the TRC rate data and negative trends should be addressed as part of this element. The board will evaluate the TRC rates to determine if the Offeror has demonstrated a history of safe work practices taking into account any upward trends and extenuating circumstances that impact rates.

(d) Technical Approach to Safety: The offeror will describe their plan to evaluate their safety performance and that of potential subcontractors. Also, describe any innovative methods that the Offeror will employ to ensure and monitor safe work practices at all subcontractor levels. The Safety Narrative shall be limited to two pages. The board 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 board will evaluate the narrative to determine the degree to which innovations are being proposed that may enhance safety on this procurement and validate the contractor has addressed methodology to be used in the execution of an effective program that facilitates sound mishap prevention techniques/processes, employee reporting of unsafe conditions, unsafe activities, and near-miss mishaps. Those Offerors whose plan demonstrates a commitment to hire subcontractors with a culture of safety and who propose innovative methods to enhance a safe working environment may be given greater weight in the evaluation.

(e) Other Sources of Information Available to the Government: Other sources for safety may include but are not limited to OSHA data, NAVFAC’s Contractor Incident Reporting System (CIRS) in Enterprise Safety Applications Management System (ESAMS), Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS) and other related databases.

(3) Factor 3, Management Approach and Schedule

Submit a narrative work plan and Critical Path Method (CPM) project schedule to describe your approach to managing the project and ensuring adherence to the project schedule. Both the schedule and narrative must address the execution of the base price and all options, as defined in the RFP. The narrative shall not exceed five (5) double-sided (or ten (10) single-sided) 8-1/2" x 11" pages. Provide both the summary level and critical path schedules, documenting any multiple critical paths, in 11" x 17" pages and in an Adobe PDF file, along with the CPM schedule source file. There is no page limit on the summary level, critical path or entire CPM schedule.

The narrative work plan shall address major elements of work and demonstrate understanding of the scope, major milestones, technical complexities, and the sequenced construction schedule needed to achieve the work as identified in the solicitation. Identify activities that may affect the project timeline, including other/off site work activities.

The project schedule shall illustrate the offeror's ability to achieve the contract completion date set out in the RFP (265 calendar days for the base price, with the period of performance being extended by 365 days if options 1 and/or 4 are exercised). Identify the overall completion time for this project, in accordance with the RFP, for and key milestones and sequences as required to complete construction. The schedule shall demonstrate an understanding of the work, a logical sequence of events to accomplish the work, and contain enough information to identify all of the major milestones, as defined in the RFP.

The schedule shall be based on a contract award date of 09 March 2018*

*This date is only for purposes of this evaluation and not intended to indicate the actual or planned date of award.

Offerors will be evaluated on the extent to which they demonstrate a clear understanding of the requirements of the RFP. A schedule that proposes contract duration longer than indicated in the RFP will be rated “Unacceptable”.

(4) Factor 4, Past Performance

The offeror shall submit the following information for projects submitted under Factor 1 – Experience:

IF A COMPLETED CPARS EVALUATION IS AVAILABLE, IT SHALL BE SUBMITTED WITH THE

PROPOSAL. IF THERE IS NOT A COMPLETED CPARS EVALUATION, the Past Performance Questionnaire (PPQ) included in the solicitation is provided for the offeror or its team members 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 B), 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, Amanda Bricker, via email at amanda.bricker@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. It is the responsibility of the offeror to provide accurate points of contact for each identified contract and current telephone numbers and/or email addresses.

The Government reserves the right to contact references for verification or additional information. The

Government’s inability to contact any of the offeror’s references or the references’ unwillingness to provide the information requested may affect the Government’s evaluation of this factor.

Offerors may provide any information on problems encountered and the corrective actions taken on projects submitted under Factor 1 – Corporate Experience. Offerors may also address any adverse past performance issues. Such explanations shall not exceed two (2) double-sided pages (or four (4) single-sided pages) in total.

This evaluation focuses on how well the offeror performed on the relevant projects submitted under Factor 1 – Corporate Experience and past performance on other relevant projects currently documented in known sources.

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 performed that are identical to, similar to, or related to the task at hand;

The Government will consider the currency and relevance of the information, the source of the information, context of the data, and general trends in the Contractor’s performance. This evaluation is separate and distinct from the Contracting Officer’s responsibility determination. The assessment of the offeror’s past performance will be used as a means of evaluating the offeror’s probability to successfully meet the requirements of the RFP.

A copy of the blank Past Performance Questionnaire to be used for requesting client references is included as Attachment B.
