RECEIVED BY THE DATE AND TIME SPECIFIC IN THE RFP SHALL BE TREATED IN

ACCORDANCE WITH FAR 52.215-1 “INSTRUCTIONS TO OFFERORS – COMPETITIVE

ACQUISITIONS” AND MAY BE REJECTED.

In response to this request for proposal, the complete proposal shall include the Price Proposal and the

Non-Cost/Price Factors Proposal, submitted in accordance with the Basis of Evaluation and Submittal

Requirements for Each Factor.

Basis for Award:

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 proposal determined to represent the best value-the proposal most advantageous to the Government, price and other factors considered.

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 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.

Marine Corps Base, Camp Lejeune, North Carolina

The single technical factor is of equal importance to the performance confidence assessment (past performance) rating; and all non-price factors, when combined, are approximately equal in importance to price.

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

(if held). An Unacceptable rating for the non-cost/price factor will result in an overall rating of

“Unacceptable” for the non-cost/price factors, unless corrected through discussions (if held). 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.

Evaluation Factors for Award

The Proposed Task Order will be awarded to the responsible offeror offering the best value to the

Government. To make a determination of Best Value, the Government shall evaluate each offeror on the following criteria:

Factor 1 – Technical Solution

Factor 2 – Past Performance

The relative order of importance of the non-cost/price evaluation factors is the technical factor (Factor 1 –

Technical Solution) is of equal importance to the performance confidence assessment (Factor 2 – Past

Performance). The non-cost/price factors, when combined, are approximately equal to price.

The importance of price will increase if the Offerors’ non-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-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.

Non-Cost/Price Evaluation Factors

All submissions shall include the following:

The Offeror shall submit one (1) electronic copy via PIEE of the solicitation submittal requirements identified below. The Price and Non-price proposals shall be submitted in separate files and submitted in

Portable Document Format (PDF). In addition, non- price/technical information included in the price proposal will not be considered; likewise, price information included in the non-price/technical proposal will not be considered. All required proposal documents shall be submitted in accordance with FAR

15.208.

All submissions shall include the following characteristics:

• One complete electronic copy of the non-price/technical proposal factors as a single .pdf searchable file with bookmarks

• Include a cover page with Solicitation Number, Solicitation Title, Prime Contractor Name, Address, Phone Number, Fax Number, Unique Entity Identifier (UEI), Cage Code, Point of

Contact (POC), Title, Phone Number for the POC, and Email Address for the POC;

Marine Corps Base, Camp Lejeune, North Carolina

• Text pages must be 8 ½” x 11” format; Drawings pages may be 11”x17” format;

• 10-point font, Times New Roman;

• Refer to individual factors for page limitations. Pages that exceed indicated page limitations shall not be evaluated. Information submitted beyond any of the page limits below will not be considered.

Factor 1 – Technical Solution

(i) Solicitation Submittal Requirements:

Provide a narrative describing the technical approach to the project that meets the requirements of the

RFP. The narrative shall include, but is not limited to:

- Interior circulation/space adjacencies and square footage. Describe how pedestrian access to, and vehicular traffic through, the various areas of the facilities are coordinated. Highlight items that illustrate an understanding of the workflow through the various facilities, as well as individual segments of each facility supporting different functional requirements.

- Exterior façade describing how the proposed construction integrates with the surrounding area and existing base facilities design or architectural theme.

- Site layout including a description of the building orientations, roadways, parking (include ingress and egress), walkways, emergency vehicle access, ATFP standoff distances, and drainage

/low impact development (LID). Describe vehicular circulation around the facilities, in particular equipment / trailers that must navigate the exterior, as well as enter and exit from the facility.

Narrative shall not exceed four (4) pages. A minimum of three conceptual drawings are required:

Conceptual drawings of site plan, building floor plans and building evaluation. However, up to six (6) conceptual drawings may be provided to supplement the narrative (i.e., each facility floor plan per level, all exterior elevations for each facility, and site plan(s)).

(ii) Basis of Evaluation:

The Government will evaluate the narrative and conceptual drawings considering the extent to which the

Offeror demonstrates a clear understanding of the architectural and engineering requirements of the project. The Government will evaluate the effectiveness of the design-build team's technical solution to determine the likelihood that the work will be performed in accordance with the technical requirements of the RFP.

Factor 2 – Past Performance:

Offerors do not need to provide any information under this factor as the Government will base the evaluation on known past performance on task orders awarded under this Multiple Award Contract

(MAC). However, Offerors may provide any information on problems encountered and the corrective actions taken on task orders under this MAC. Offerors may also address any adverse past performance issues under this MAC. Explanations shall not exceed or four (4) pages in total.

(ii) Basis of Evaluation:

This evaluation focuses on how well the Offeror performed on projects under this Multiple Award

Contract. More emphasis will be placed on task orders that are more similar to this RFP. The

Government reserves the right to obtain information for use in the evaluation of past performance other than projects performed under this Multiple Award Contract 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 Contractor Performance Assessment Rating System (CPARS), 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 ability to successfully meet the requirements of the RFP.

Offerors lacking past performance information on other task orders under this Multiple Award Contract will not be evaluated favorably or unfavorably in past performance and will receive a Neutral Confidence rating.

Price

The offeror shall submit one (1) electronic copy via PIEE of the solicitation submittal requirements identified below. The Price and Non-price proposals shall be submitted in separate files and submitted in

Portable Document Format (PDF). In addition, non-price/technical information included in the price proposal will not be considered; likewise, price information included in the non-price/technical proposal will not be considered. All required proposal documents shall be submitted in accordance with FAR

All submissions shall include the following:

• Cover page with solicitation number, solicitation title, offeror name, address, phone number, fax number, UEI in SAM, CAGE code, POC Name, POC phone number, and POC email address;

20 percent of the proposed price, but shall not exceed $3 million; and

The offeror is required to submit a complete Price Proposal Form that includes completion of all contract line items numbers (CLINs). All required proposal documents shall be submitted in accordance with FAR

Marine Corps Base, Camp Lejeune, North Carolina

The price proposal shall be submitted separately, but at the same time as the technical proposal.

Furthermore, technical information contained in the price proposal will not be considered. Likewise, price information contained in the technical proposal will not be considered.

(ii) Basis of Evaluation: The Government will evaluate price based on the total lump sum price. Analysis will be performed by one or more of the following techniques to ensure a fair and reasonable price:

a. Comparison of proposed prices received in response to the RFP.

b. Comparison of proposed prices with the Independent Government Cost Estimate (IGCE).

c. Comparison of proposed prices with available historical information.

d. Comparison of market survey results.

Evaluation

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 proposal determined to represent the best value-the proposal most advantageous to the Government, 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. The single technical factor is of equal importance to the performance confidence assessment (past performance) rating; and all non-price factors, when combined, are approximately equal in importance to price.

5.

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.

Please also note that the minimum wage requirements of Executive Order 14026 are not currently being enforced as to any contract or subcontract to which the states of Texas, Louisiana, or Mississippi, including their agencies, are a party.

Note: Executive Order (EO) 13706, Establishing Paid Sick Leave for Federal Contractors applies to all contracts subject to the

Davis-Bacon Act for which the contract is awarded (and any solicitation was issued) on or after January 1, 2017. If this contract is covered by the EO, the contractor must provide employees with 1 hour of paid sick leave for every 30 hours they work, up to 56 hours of paid sick leave each year.

Employees must be permitted to use paid sick leave for their own illness, injury or other health-related needs, including preventive care; to assist a family member (or person who is like family to the employee) who is ill, injured, or has other health-related needs, including preventive care; or for reasons resulting from, or to assist a family member (or person who is like family to the employee) who is a victim of, domestic violence, sexual assault, or stalking. Additional information on contractor requirements and worker protections under the EO is available at https://www.dol.gov/agencies/whd/government-contracts.

Unlisted classifications needed for work not included within the scope of the classifications listed may be added after award only as provided in the labor standards contract clauses

(29CFR 5.5 (a) (1) (iii)).

The body of each wage determination lists the classifications and wage rates that have been found to be prevailing for the type(s) of construction and geographic area covered by the wage determination. The classifications are listed in alphabetical order under rate identifiers indicating whether the particular rate is a union rate (current union negotiated rate), a survey

Marine Corps Base, Camp Lejeune, North Carolina rate, a weighted union average rate, a state adopted rate, or a supplemental classification rate.

Union Rate Identifiers

A four-letter identifier beginning with characters other than

""SU"", ""UAVG"", ?SA?, or ?SC? denotes that a union rate was prevailing for that classification in the survey. Example:

PLUM0198-005 07/01/2024. PLUM is an identifier of the union whose collectively bargained rate prevailed in the survey for this classification, which in this example would be Plumbers.

0198 indicates the local union number or district council number where applicable, i.e., Plumbers Local 0198. The next number, 005 in the example, is an internal number used in processing the wage determination. The date, 07/01/2024 in the example, is the effective date of the most current negotiated rate.

Union prevailing wage rates are updated to reflect all changes over time that are reported to WHD in the rates in the collective bargaining agreement (CBA) governing the classification.

Union Average Rate Identifiers

The UAVG identifier indicates that no single rate prevailed for those classifications, but that 100% of the data reported for the classifications reflected union rates. EXAMPLE:

UAVG-OH-0010 01/01/2024. UAVG indicates that the rate is a weighted union average rate. OH indicates the State of Ohio.

The next number, 0010 in the example, is an internal number used in producing the wage determination. The date, 01/01/2024 in the example, indicates the date the wage determination was updated to reflect the most current union average rate.

A UAVG rate will be updated once a year, usually in January, to reflect a weighted average of the current rates in the collective bargaining agreements on which the rate is based.

Survey Rate Identifiers

The ""SU"" identifier indicates that either a single non-union rate prevailed (as defined in 29 CFR 1.2) for this classification in the survey or that the rate was derived by computing a weighted average rate based on all the rates reported in the survey for that classification. As a weighted average rate includes all rates reported in the survey, it may include both union and non-union rates. Example: SUFL2022-007

6/27/2024. SU indicates the rate is a single non-union prevailing rate or a weighted average of survey data for that classification. FL indicates the State of Florida. 2022 is the year of the survey on which these classifications and rates are based. The next number, 007 in the example, is an internal number used in producing the wage determination. The date, 6/27/2024 in the example, indicates the survey completion date for the classifications and rates under that identifier.

Marine Corps Base, Camp Lejeune, North Carolina ?SU? wage rates typically remain in effect until a new survey is conducted. However, the Wage and Hour Division (WHD) has the discretion to update such rates under 29 CFR 1.6(c)(1).

State Adopted Rate Identifiers

The ""SA"" identifier indicates that the classifications and prevailing wage rates set by a state (or local) government were adopted under 29 C.F.R 1.3(g)-(h). Example: SAME2023-007

01/03/2024. SA reflects that the rates are state adopted.
