1. GENERAL

1.1 NOTICE TO OFFERORS

1.1.1 THIS SOLICITATION IS BEING ISSUED AS AN 8(A) SET-ASIDE IN ACCORDANCE WITH 13 CFR §

124.507. THE NAICS CODE FOR THIS PROCUREMENT IS 236220 AND THE SIZE STANDARD IS $39.5M.

1.2 GENERAL OVERVIEW OF PROCUREMENT PROCESS

1.2.1 This solicitation is formatted as a Request for Proposal (RFP) in accordance with the requirements designated by sections of the FAR 15.203. This method permits evaluation of proposals based on price competition, technical merit and other factors; permits impartial and comprehensive evaluation of offerors' proposals; permits discussions if necessary; and ensures selection of the source whose performance provides the best value to the Government. This acquisition will be solicited as a competitively negotiated procurement as a total small business set-aside.

1.2.2 The Government reserves the right to reject any or all proposals at any time prior to award; to negotiate with any or all offerors; to award the contracts to other than the offeror submitting the lowest total price; to award to other than the offeror submitting the highest technically rated proposal; and to award to the offeror submitting the proposal determined by the Government to be the most advantageous (best value) to the Government. OFFERORS

ARE ADVISED THAT AWARD MAY BE MADE WITHOUT DISCUSSION OR ANY CONTACT

CONCERNING THE PROPOSALS RECEIVED. Therefore, proposals should be submitted initially on the most favorable price and technical terms. Offerors should not assume that they will be contacted or afforded an opportunity to qualify, discuss, or revise their proposals. However, the Government reserves the right to clarify certain aspects of proposals or conduct discussions providing an opportunity for the offeror to revise its proposal.

1.3 GENERAL OVERVIEW OF CONTRACT

1.3.1. This acquisition will result in the award of approximately eight (8), Firm Fixed Price (FFP) Indefinite- Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ), Design-Build/Design-Bid-Build Multiple Award Construction Contracts (MACCs) for facilities primarily in the Hampton Roads Area of Responsibility (AOR). The Hampton Roads AOR includes the following locations: NAS Oceana and Dam Neck Annex, JEB Little Creek-Fort Story, NASA Wallops Island, NAVSTA Norfolk, NSA Hampton Roads, Norfolk Naval Shipyard, NWS Yorktown and Cheatham Annex, and NSGA Sugar Grove. The Government intends to award approximately eight (8) contracts resulting from this solicitation to the responsible offerors whose proposals represent the best value after evaluation in accordance with the factors in the solicitation.

1.3.2. Construction projects to be performed under this MACC will primarily consist of general building projects and may be either design-bid-build or design-build. General construction of DB and DBB projects include, but are not limited to, new construction, demolition, repair, alteration, and renovation of buildings, systems and infrastructure, and may include architectural, civil, structural, mechanical, electrical, fire protection, and/or communication systems. Types of facilities may include administrative, industrial, maintenance, warehouses, hangars, communications, personnel support, recreation, lodging, dormitory, medical, training, ranges, roads, etc., in support of Naval Facilities Engineering Command, Mid-Atlantic, Various Facilities in the Hampton Roads Area of Responsibility, Virginia

1.3.3 The completion date for the basic contract is one (1) year from the date of contract award with four (4) one-year option periods, not to exceed 60 months. The total five-year (base and four one-year options) estimated construction cost for all contracts is not to exceed $249,000,000.00 for the life of the contract. Projects for the MACC have an estimated construction cost between $75,000, and $5,000,000; however, smaller and larger dollar value projects may be considered at the discretion of the Contracting Officer. The Government guarantees an award amount of $5,000.00 to each successful offeror over the full term of the contract, including option years.

1.3.4 After award of the initial contracts and “seed” project, the successful IDIQ contractors will compete for task orders based on best value, using the tradeoff process or lowest price technically acceptable (to include lowest price). Only the successful IDIQ contractors will compete for task orders. Should an IDIQ contractor with a guaranteed minimum be unable to competitively secure a task order to meet the $5,000 minimum guarantee, the Government reserves the right to negotiate a task order directly with that contractor.

1.3.5 The intent of this contract is that all IDIQ Contractors participate in pre-proposal conferences and site-visits and submit proposals on each task order. Contract awardees will be expected to submit a proposal for all Task Order Requests for Proposal (RFP) received from the Government. However, in the event a MACC awardee is unable to submit a proposal on a particular RFP, the contractor is required to notify, in writing, the Contracting Officer who issued the RFP and the ACO for the basic contract within five (5) working days from receipt of the RFP. A MACC awardee can only elect to withdraw from submitting a proposal on three (3) task order RFPs during the course of each year of the contract (base plus four options). Additional withdrawal requests, in excess of three per year, may result in the Government choosing not to exercise remaining option terms.

1.3.6 Each task order will contain project specific evaluation factors that will vary depending on the unique requirements for each task order. Additionally, each task order will cite a specific completion date and associated liquidated damages.

1.3.7 Contractor Performance Information: Contractor’s performance will be evaluated using the respective contractor performance evaluation report entry system located on the website http://www.cpars.gov/. Prior to commencement of work the contractor is required to provide the government with the name, phone number and e-mail address of the “Contractor’s Representative” that will be responsible for receipt and review of draft performance evaluations prepared by the government in the appropriate system. It is the contractor’s responsibility to keep this contact information current.

2. GENERAL OVERVIEW OF THE SEED PROJECT

2.1 The initial project to be awarded as the first task order along with the basic contract will be Building SP-254, Repairs & Renovations, NSN Hampton Roads, Norfolk, VA.

* Solicitation Section 01 00 00 will include the General Requirements for the seed project.

2.2 Pursuant to FAR 52.232-18, Availability of Funds, the Government's obligation under this solicitation, or any task order or contract that might result from the solicitation is entirely subject to, and contingent upon, the availability of appropriated funds. Should the Government be unable to award the seed project, the Government guarantees an award in the amount of $5,000.00 to each successful offeror upon award of the Multiple Award Construction Contracts. This minimum guarantee is over the full term of the contract, including option years. No legal liability on the part of the Government shall arise until funds are made available to the Contracting Officer and a task order or contract is awarded by the Contracting Officer. Any offeror proposing on this solicitation does so at its own cost and with the full knowledge that a task order for the seed project, might not result from this solicitation.

3. 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 contracts; to negotiate with offerors in the competitive range; and to award the contracts to the offerors submitting the proposals determined to represent the best value—the proposals most advantageous to the Government, cost/price and other factors considered.

2. 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 tradeoff process is selected as appropriate for this acquisition. The Government considers it to be in its best interest to allow consideration of award to other than the lowest priced offeror or other than the highest technically rated offeror.

4. As stated in the solicitation, the relative order of importance of the non-price evaluation factors is that the technical factors (Factors 1,2,3) are of equal importance to each other and, when combined, are equal in importance to the past performance evaluation/performance confidence assessment (Factor 4). When the proposal is evaluated as a whole, the technical factors and past performance/performance confidence assessment factor combined (i.e., the non-price evaluation factors) are of approximately equal importance to price. In the event proposals are considered essentially equal in terms of the non-price factors, the importance of price will increase.

5. Any proposal found to have a deficiency in meeting the stated solicitation requirements or performance objectives will be considered ineligible for award, unless the deficiency is corrected through discussions. Proposals may be found to have either a Significant Weakness or multiple Weaknesses that impact either the individual factor rating or the overall rating for the proposal. The evaluation report must document the evaluation board’s assessment of the identified Weakness(s) and the associated risk to successful contract performance resulting from the Weakness(s). This assessment must provide the rationale for proceeding to award without discussions.

4. EVALUATION FACTORS FOR AWARD

Instructions to Offerors:

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

Factor 1 – Experience Factor 2 – Safety

Factor 3 – Management Approach Factor 4 – Past Performance

The distinction between Experience and Past Performance is that Experience pertains to the volume of work completed by a contractor that are comparable to the types of work described under the definition of recent, relevant projects, 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. The relative order of importance of the non-cost/price evaluation factors is the technical factors are of equal importance to each other and when combined are equal importance to the past performance confidence assessment (Factor 4 - Past Performance). When the proposal is evaluated as a whole, the technical factors and past performance/performance assessment, combined (i.e., the non-cost/price evaluation factors) are approximately equal in importance to price.

The importance of price will increase if the Offerors’ non-cost/price proposals are considered essentially equal in terms of overall quality, or if price is so high as to significantly diminish the value of a non-cost/price proposal’s superiority to the Government. Award will be made to the responsible Offeror(s) whose offer conforms to the solicitation and represents the best value to the Government, price and non-price factors considered.

Note: Projects submitted that only include horizontal or civil site work will not be considered.

Ensure that the project description clearly identifies whether or not the project is new construction or renovation, the final construction cost, and addresses how the project meets the scope/complexity requirements.

Projects submitted for the Offeror shall be completed within the past five (5) 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 and will not be considered.

The attached Construction Experience Project Data Sheet (Attachment A) is MANDATORY and SHALL be used to submit project information. If the same project is being used to demonstrate construction and design experience, submit separate Project Data Sheets for construction and design or the Government reserves the right not to consider the project. 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 one (1) double-sided page (or two (2) single-sided pages). Information beyond this page limit will not be considered.

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 itself does not have experience, projects should be submitted for each Joint Venture member. 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 proposing as a mentor-protégé 8a JV, a signed, SBA approved JV agreement and a signed SBA Approval letter must be submitted within this factor.

Additionally, the Offeror must identify the percentage of work to be performed by each partner.

Ensure that the project description clearly identifies whether or not the project is new construction or renovation, the final construction cost, and addresses how the project meets the scope/complexity requirements. The absence of any such information may result in the Project being considered Not Relevant, which could result in a rating of UNACCEPTABLE for this Factor. The absence of one project that has a $2,000,000 or greater final construction cost that also meets the scope and complexity requirements will result in a rating of UNACCEPTABLE for this Factor. The absence of one relevant design-build project will result in the rating of UNACCEPTABLE for this Factor.

Projects submitted for the DOR shall have been completed within the previous five (5) years of the issuance date for this RFP. Submitted Projects that were not completed within this timeframe will be considered “Not Relevant”. For design-build projects, the design portion of the contract shall have been completed within the previous five (5) years of the issuance date of this RFP. The design completion date shall be clearly stated on the Construction & Design Experience Project Data Sheet (Attachment A). The project will be considered “Not Relevant” if the design completion date is not clearly provided.

Clearly define role in project and services provided. The absence of define role and services may result in the Project being considered Not Relevant, which could result in a rating of UNACCEPTABLE for this Factor.

A project is defined as a complete design effort performed under a single task order or contract/subcontract. For multiple award and indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity type contracts, the contract as a whole shall not be submitted as a project and will not be considered, rather Offerors shall submit the work performed under a task order as a project. The attached Construction & Design 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 nor will the Government consider submissions via any other medium. Individual blocks on this form may be expanded; however, total length for each project data sheet shall not exceed one (1) double-sided page (or two (2) single-sided pages). Information beyond this page limit will not be considered.

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). In addition, the description should also address any sustainable features for the project, including specific descriptions of those features. The Offeror shall provide applicable documentation on projects that were validated and/or certified through U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC) or the equivalent organization or process.

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. If meanful involvement is not demonstrated, experience of the affiliate/subsidiary/parent firm will not be considered, and will be deemed “Not Relevant”.

The Offeror may utilize experience of a design subcontractor as the Designer of Record in order to demonstrate design experience under this evaluation factor. The Offer must provide a supporting joint venture agreement, partnership agreement, teaming agreement, or letter of commitment and an explanation of the meaningful involvement for the design subcontractor. If the agreement/letter is not provided or meaningful involvement is not demonstrated, experience of the proposed designer will not be considered.

(ii) Basis of Evaluation:

The basis of evaluation will consider the Offeror’s demonstrated experience and depth of experience in performing relevant construction and design projects 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 the first five (5) projects submitted for construction experience and the first five (5) projects submitted for design experience. Additional submitted projects will not be considered.

Offerors submitting relevant projects where the Offeror and the proposed design firm(s) have previously worked together may receive a higher rating than offerors that have not previously worked with its proposed design team.

Relevant projects that demonstrate the ability to perform multiple projects simultaneously may be considered more favorably than those who do not have experience performing multiple simultaneous projects.

Offerors that demonstrate experience with sustainable features may receive a higher rating than those that do not demonstrate experience with sustainable features.

Factor 2 – Safety

(i) Solicitation Submittal Requirements:

The Offeror shall submit the following information:

The Days Away from Work, Restricted Duty, or Job Transfer (DART) Rate; and Total Case Rate (TCR) for the specified five (5) Calendar Years (CY), as well as a safety narrative, as described below.

If Offeror is a partnership or joint venture, the Offeror shall submit separate DART and TCR rates for the specified five (5) CY for each contractor who is part of the partnership/joint venture; however, only one safety narrative is required.

Any fatalities experienced within this 5-year timeframe listed below must be explained in detail, to include root cause and corrective actions.

NOTE: DART and TCR shall not be submitted for subcontractors.

1. DART Rate: Submit DART Rate data for five (5) previous complete calendar years’ [CY2017, CY2018, CY2019, CY2020, and CY2021] worth of data (not an overall average). If the Offeror has no DART rate, for any year, affirmatively state so and explain why. Should negative trend occur above moderate risk levels, an acceptable/detailed explanation is required, that includes any corrective actions taken for improvement.

a. DART cases include injuries or illnesses resulting in death, days away from work, and/or restricted work or transfer to another job days beyond the day of injury/illness.

b. Calculation of DART rate: Multiply the total number of DART cases by 200,000, and then divide by the number of employee labor hours worked.

DART RATE = Number of DART Incidents x 200,000 Total Number of Employee Labor Hours Worked

2. TCR Rate: Submit TCR rate for five (5) previous complete calendar years’ [CY2017, CY2018, CY2019, CY2020 and CY2021] worth of data (not an overall average). If the Offeror has no TCR rate, for any year, affirmatively state so and explain why. Should negative trend occur above moderate risk levels, an acceptable/detailed explanation is required, that includes any corrective actions taken for improvement.

a. TCR cases include injuries or illnesses resulting in death, day away from work, restricted work or transfer to another job days beyond the day of injury/illness, medical treatment beyond first aid, or loss of consciousness.

b. Calculation of TCR rate: Multiply the total number of TCR incidents by 200,000, and then divide by the number of employee labor hours worked.

TRC RATE = Number of TRC Incidents x 200,000 Total Number of Employee Labor Hours Worked

3. Technical Approach to Safety: Submit a narrative that addresses the following:

a. Describe the Offeror’ s approach to implementing and executing a Safety Management System (SMS) including Management/Leadership involvement, Employee involvement, Hazard prevention, Hazard control, Worksite analysis, and Safety and health training, to include the standard(s) used to benchmark the SMS.

b. Describes the evaluation process used to select potential subcontractors.

c. Describe the processes of how the Offeror will oversee safety compliance of subcontractors at all levels throughout performance of the contract (to include the Offeror’s own in-house workforce).

d. The Technical Approach to Safety narrative shall be limited to two (2) single-sided pages or one (1) double-sided page. Information beyond the referenced page limit will not be considered.

4. The Government reserves the right to review other available sources (public/Government internal) of information.

These may include but are not limited to OSHA data, NAVFAC’s Contractor Incident Reporting System (CIRS), Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS), Electronic Contract Management System (eCMS), etc.

(ii) Basis of Evaluation

The Government is seeking to determine that 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 evaluation will collectively consider the DART rate, TCR, Technical Approach to Safety, and other sources of information available to the Government as part of such collective evaluation. The board will evaluate the DART rates and TCR 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.

1. DART Rate: The board will evaluate trends over the last five years considering changes that take it from one risk level (or more) to the next up or down. Negative trends occurring above moderate risk levels require the offeror to provide a detailed explanation that includes any corrective actions taken for improvement.

a. Missing data without an explanation is considered a Deficiency.

b. Declining trends that push the risk levels from Moderate Risk (MR) or higher to Low Risk (LR) or Very Low Risk (VLR) may be considered a Strength.

c. An increasing DART rate trend could be considered a Weakness (i.e. MR or better to High Risk (HR) or Extremely High Risk HER)) if an acceptable explanation is not provided for any trends that rise above Moderate.

d. This chart correlates the DART rate to the level of risk:

Risk DART Rate Very Low Risk Less Than 1.0 Low Risk From 1.0 to 1.99 Moderate Risk From 2.0 to 2.99 High Risk From 3.0 to 4.0 Extremely High Risk Greater than 4.0

2. TCR Rate: The board will evaluate trends over the last five years considering changes that take it from one risk level (or more) to the next up or down. Negative trends occurring above moderate risk levels require the offeror to provide a detailed explanation that includes any corrective actions taken for improvement.

a. Missing data without an explanation is considered a Deficiency.

b. Declining trends that push the risk levels from Moderate Risk (MR) or higher to Low Risk (LR) or Very Low Risk (VLR) may be considered a Strength.

c. An increasing DART rate trend could be considered a Weakness (i.e. MR or better to High Risk (HR) or Extremely High Risk HER)) if an acceptable explanation is not provided for any trends that rise above Moderate.

d. This chart correlates the TCR rate to the level of risk:

Risk TCR Rate Very Low Risk Less Than 2.49 Low Risk From 2.5 to 3.49 Moderate Risk From 3.5 to 4.49 High Risk From 4.5 to 5.99 Extremely High Risk Greater than 6.0

3. The Technical Approach to Safety Narrative. The board will evaluate the submitted narrative to determine the degree to which the Offeror:

a. Describes a viable SMS that addresses elements; such as Management/Leadership involvement, Employee involvement, Hazard prevention, Hazard control, Worksite analysis, and Safety and health training, to include the standard(s) used to benchmark the SMS.

b. Describes a methodical process of evaluating subcontractor’s safety performance in their selection process.

c. Describes a logical management plan to hold themselves and their subcontractors accountable for adhering to the safety requirements of the contract.

d. The Technical Approach to Safety shall be limited to two (2) single-sided pages or one (1) double-sided page.

Information on pages beyond this will not be considered.

4. The Government may consider information from other available sources (public/Government internal) of information in determining a rating for the factor. These may include but are not limited to OSHA data, NAVFAC’s Contractor Incident Reporting System (CIRS), Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS), Electronic Contract Management System (eCMS), etc.

Factor 3 - Management Approach:

(i) Solicitation Submittal Requirements:

Offeror shall submit a detailed Management Approach describing how the offeror intends to successfully complete the work awarded under this MACC. The narrative plan shall not exceed five (5) singled-spaced pages (information beyond the five (5) page limit will not be considered with the exception of the organizational chart) and, at a minimum, must address the following:

• Offeror’s strategy for successful execution of work award under resulting contract, managing multiple concurrent projects, and managing the geographic coverage of the contract requirements.

• Offeror’s plan for accomplishing the varied scope of work (Design-Build and Design-Bid-Build (fully designed)) for general construction

• The offeror shall provide the roles, responsibilities, and contractual relationships between the various firms that will perform with under this contract. The narrative shall also include a simple organizational chart that clearly identifies the lines of authority between the entities. (The organizational chart is not part of the page limitation).

(ii) Basic of Evaluation:

The narrative will be evaluated to determine whether the offeror’s management approach will contribute to successful performance for this contract. Proposals providing greater detail and demonstrating a greater understanding of the requirements, as outlined above, may be rated higher. Failure to address all elements set out above will render the proposal unacceptable.

Factor 4 - Past Performance:

(i) Solicitation Submittal Requirements:

If a completed a Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS) evaluation is available, it shall be submitted with the proposal for each project included in Factor 1 for Construction Experience. If a completed a CPARS is available, it shall be submitted with the proposal for each project included in Factor 1 for Design Experience. If there is not a completed CPARS evaluation then the offeror shall submit Past Performance Questionnaires (Attachment F) for each project included in Factor 1 for both Construction Experience and Design Experience. The Offeror should provide completed Past Performance Questionnaires (PPQ) in the proposal.

Offerors shall not incorporate by reference into their proposal PPQs previously submitted for other RFPs. Offerors are permitted to provide copies of previously completed Past Performance Questionnaires (PPQs) in their proposal.

However, this does not preclude the Government from utilizing previously submitted PPQ information in the past performance evaluation. If the Offeror is unable to obtain a completed PPQ from a client for a project(s) before proposal closing date, the Offeror shall complete and submit with the proposal the first page of the PPQ, which must provide contract and client information for the respective project(s). The Government may make reasonable attempts to contact the client noted for that project(s) to obtain the PPQ information. However, Offerors should follow-up with clients/references to help ensure timely submittal of questionnaires. If the client requests, questionnaires may be submitted directly to the Government’s point of contact, Demetrice Jenkins, demetrice.jenkins2.civ@us.navy.mil.

Offerors are strongly encouraged to provide any information on problems encountered and the corrective actions taken on projects submitted under Factor 1 – Experience. Offerors are also strongly encouraged to address any adverse past performance issues. Explanations shall not exceed two (2) double-sided pages (or four (4) single-sided pages) in total. Information provided beyond this page limitation will not be considered.

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.

Performance awards or additional information submitted will not be considered.

(ii) Basis of Evaluation:

This evaluation focuses on how well the Offeror performed on the relevant projects submitted under Factor 1 – Experience and past performance on other projects currently documented in known sources. More emphasis will be placed on more relevant projects. In addition to the above, the Government reserves the right to obtain information for use in the evaluation of past performance from any and all sources including sources outside of the Government. Other sources may include, but are not limited to, past performance information retrieved through the Past Performance Information Retrieval System (PPIRS) using all CAGE/ Unique Entity ID numbers of Contractors who are part of a partnership or joint venture identified in the Offeror’s proposal, inquiries of owner representative(s), Federal Awardee Performance and Integrity Information System (FAPIIS), Electronic Subcontract Reporting System (eSRS), and any other known sources not provided by the Offeror.

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.

Offerors lacking relevant past performance history will not be evaluated favorably or unfavorably in past performance and will receive an Unknown Confidence rating.
