N62470-17-R-6016 GLOBAL CONTINGENCY CONSTRUCTION CONTRACT, NAVFAC ATLANTIC

AMENDMENT 0002

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

Question 1. The JL.2 and 2A forms have labor categories listed that are not direct charge to projects and are part of the contracts indirect rate structures. How is the contractor to propose on these rates? Are we to leave that rate blank and add a note saying “Part of Overhead”?

Answer: See revised Attachment JL.2 and JL.2A (REV 1) attached to this amendment.

Question 2. Factor 5, Past Performance allows for the "submission of performance recognition documents received within the last three years…". Considering that Factor 1, Corporate Experience allows the use of "projects similar in size, scope and complexity to the work anticipated under this contract and completed within the past ten (10) years of the date of issuance of this RFP.", will the Government align these two factors by allowing the submission of performance recognition documents received in the last ten years?

Answer: See this amendment for changes to the third paragraph under Factor 5, Past Performance (i).

Question 3. H-10 states "for cost-type contracts with fixed-price construction subcontracts over $35,000, the prime contractor is required to obtain from each of its construction subcontractors performance and payment protection…” Clause H-20 sets the threshold as $30,000. Please clarify.

Answer: This amendment deletes paragraph H-20 on page 35 of the solicitation.

Question 4. Paragraph 8.4 - It appears that the descriptions for the senior Project Manager and Quality Control (QC) Program Manager have been combined. Please clarify the roles and qualifications for each of position.

Answer: See change to Paragraph 8.4 in this amendment.

Question 5. Factor 5. Past Performance,( i) , the third paragraph states “Also include performance recognition documents received within the last three years such as awards award fee determinations, customer letters of commendation, and any other forms of performance recognition." Please confirm that these may apply to projects other than those that were submitted in Factor 1 Corporate Experience.

Answer: See change to the third paragraph under Factor 5, Past Performance (i) in this amendment.

Question 6. Factor 5. Past Performance, (i), The Offeror is prohibited from submitting a PPQ for a Corporate Experience project, if a CCASS is available. However, PPQ's often contain comments similar to what may be found in a customer letter of commendation. In view of the question above, please consider allowing submission of PPQs as additional performance recognition.

Answer: No.

Question 7. Page 8, Personnel Requirements. The RFP reads: "The labor categories below are the ONLY labor categories that will be permitted under the contract. However, if it is determined that a labor category not listed below is required for a task order, the Contractor shall obtain prior written approval at time of proposal submission from the Contract Administrator listed under Section G-1 of the contract.

Question: The labor categories do not include a project controls position typically used for cost control on a CPAF type task orders (this is not a function of an Accountant type).

Would the government consider adding a project controls positions to the labor categories to minimize the additional administrative requirement to add the position at the time of the proposal?

Answer: No.

Question 8. On page 10, 8.4 Personnel Duties, Desired Experience, and Qualifications, The RFP reads: Junior Engineer; Responsibilities include preparing technical submittals and providing consultations as required. Duties include assisting the Mid-Level and Senior Engineer in carrying out project work, and assisting the Project Superintendent/Construction Site Manager in interpretation of engineering data. A qualified individual shall have an undergraduate degree from an engineering program, professional registration, and have a minimum of 3 years of experience in the appropriate technical discipline.

Question. For a junior engineer to have a professional registration is highly unlikely. Junior engineers don't normally have the necessary years of experience working under a registered engineer to obtain their registration.

Can the government reconsider the professional registration for junior engineers?

Answer: This amendment removes the professional registration requirement for Junior Engineers.

Question 9. Reference Attachment JL.7, All Year Tabs – The Accounting Technician II and Accounting Technician III labor categories do not show hours assigned to them. Is this an oversight and hours should have been assigned to these categories or should no hours be assigned to these labor categories?

Answer: See revised Attachment JL.7 (rev1) attached to Amendment 0001.

Question 10. Section L, Page 116, Section 2. Proposal Format, Volume 1: Non-cost (Technical Factors and Past Performance): Instructions on page 116 of the RFP state that ‘Proposal submission is limited to 125 pages. Note that letters of commitment and Joint Venture/teaming/partnership agreements, resumes, CPAR evaluations, and past performance questionnaires are not applied against the overall page limit." We do not see a request for resumes in the Section L instructions. Please confirm that resumes are not required as part of the submittal.

Answer: This amendment removes the word “resumes” and deletes the “listing of team members” page limitation in Section L, Page 116, Section 2, Proposal Format, Volume 1: Non-cost (Technical Factors and Past Performance.

Question 11. Section L, 2. Proposal Format, Volume 1, Page 116, RFP states: Excluded from the page limit are:

letters of commitment, JV/teaming agreements, resumes, CPAR evaluations, past performance questionnaires, tabs, introductory sheets (e.g. Table of Contents, List of Figures, List of Acronyms), a one-page coversheet to identify the contractor and the proposal, and the listings of team member’s corporate names and point of contact information.

The coversheet and listing of team members shall be limited to two pages in total (one page each).

Question: Because the teaming approach for any given team can vary greatly, we feel there should not be a page limit for this information. We request removal of the 1-page limit to the listing of team members (which limits the team).

Answer: This amendment deletes the “listing of team members” page limitation.

Question 12. Section L, (3) Factor 3: Safety, (4) Technical Approach for Safety, Page 119; We request allowance of 3 pages (instead of the 2-page limit) in this technical approach for safety to adequately provide information you request.

Answer: This amendment changes the technical approach to the safety narrative limit to two double-sided pages.

This page change does NOT change the 175 page limit.

Question 13. Section L, Factor 3, Safety; Section L, Factor 3, Safety, Technical Approach for Safety, Limit 2 pages.

NAVFAC has added an additional topic from the previous RFP issued in 2012 but has maintained the same page count. Would NAVFAC consider adding one additional page to adequately address the section requirements and the new requirement of methodology for an effective prevention program?

Answer: This amendment changes the technical approach to the safety narrative limit to two double-sided pages.

This page change does NOT change the 175 page limit.

Question 14. Would the Government please clarify whether a project completed before the RFP close date (but still ongoing at the date of RFP issuance) would be accepted for corporate experience/past performance?

Answer: See page 140, Factor 5, Past Performance, Paragraph 2 of the solicitation. “A recent project is defined as one that has been completed in the past 10 years as of the date of issuance of the solicitation.”

Question 15. Is the requirement to include performance recognition documents specific to the five projects identified in Factor 1 (Corporate Experience)? If so, would the Government remove the requirement for this recognition to have been received within the last three years in order to match the definition of recency for corporate experience projects?

Answer: See this amendment for changes to the third paragraph under Factor 5, Past Performance (i).

Question 16. H-21, Security Requirements: Individual task orders may require a Facilities Security Clearance and/or personnel with appropriate security clearances. In such instances, the requirements will be identified in the task order request for proposal. Would NAVFAC award a contract to a prime contractor who does not hold an FSC, or is this a mandatory requirement to win a contract?

Answer: No, a Facilities Security Clearance is not mandatory for contract award.

Question 17. Under Section C, paragraph 8.1, the RFP states that “the contractor shall furnish such resumes to the contracting officer upon request.” However, in paragraph L-3.2 (proposal format), the RFP states that “letters of commitment and Joint Venture/teaming/partnership agreements, resumes, CPAR evaluations, past performance questionnaires, ISR’s, Attachments JL.9, JL.10 and JL.11 are not applied against the overall page limit,” implying that resumes are expected to be submitted. Are resumes expected to be submitted in the proposal? If so, for which job categories and where should they appear?

Answer: This amendment removes the word “resumes” from paragraph L-3.2 (proposal format) on page 116 of the solicitation.

Question 18: For the forms in Volume 2, may we put proposal-specific headers and footers on these forms for consistency and ease of proposal review, as well as restriction on disclosure and use of data statements?

Answer: Yes.

Question 19. Responses to several of the pending questions will have significant impact on proposal. We respectfully request a minimum of 2 weeks from the date the last question is answered until the proposal is due.

Answer: No.

Question 20. Attachment JL.6 (Rev 1) deleted the 2014 column for OCONUS rates and added FY2018 Year-to-Date column. However, the CONUS rates section still include columns for FY2014, FY2015, FY2016 and FY2017, but without the FY2018 Year-to-Date column as shown for OCONUS rates. Please indicate whether or not the intention is to delete the 2014 column for CONUS rates and include a column for FY2018 Year-to-Date as shown in the attachment for Rev.1 OCONUS rates.

Answer: This Amendment replaces JL.6(REV1) with JL.6(Rev 2).

Question 21. Contract Period of Performance: For pricing purposes, what should offerors assume for a contract start date?

Answer: Refer to page 122 of the solicitation, Volume 2: Cost Proposal, Seciton I, Standard Form 33—Tab I.

Question 22. Current CPARS evaluation forms rate contractors on different evaluation areas, but do not provide an overall rating for the contractor. How will the Navy evaluate CPARS that have different ratings for some of the areas? Specifically, will Navy attempt to average the different evaluation areas, use the lowest evaluation area, or use different method? If different method, please provide details.

Answer: Refer to page 140 of the solicitation, (5) Factor 5, Past Performance: Basis of Evaluation.

SCOPE OF WORK

SCOPE OF WORK

This procurement is for a multiple award contract for global contingency construction. Approximately 4 contracts will be awarded as a result of this solicitation. The contracts are for a base year and four (4) one-year option periods. The total five-year (base and four, one-year options) estimated construction cost is not to exceed $500,000,000.00 for all contracts. The minimum guarantee for each contract is $25,000.00 over the life of the contract. This will be an Indefinite-Delivery/Indefinite-Quantity (IDIQ) type contract with provisions for the placement of either Cost-Plus–Award-Fee or Firm-Fixed-Price (FFP) orders.

After award of the initial contracts, task orders will be issued in accordance with the regulations set forth at FAR

16.505. Placement procedures for task orders will insure that all awardees are given fair consideration for task order requirements. Selection procedures will be tailored based on the nature of the task order requirements and selection may be based on a variety of methods including best value, low priced-technically acceptable or low price. Where applicable, each request for submission in conjunction with placing a task order will state the method of selection.

Specific evaluation factors will be identified in the request for submission. In some instances, the price evaluation for placement of a task order may be based on the Offeror’s current G&A, overhead, and Forward Rate Pricing Agreement not to exceed the proposed ceiling rates incorporated into the contract. Contractors may elect not to submit on all task order requirements; however, the contractor must notify the contracting officer in writing when a Contractor elects not to submit on a particular task order requirement. In all instances, the Government reserves the right to issue a unilateral task order directing a contractor to perform a particular project within the scope of the contract. In all such cases, contractors are obligated to perform the work required in accordance with the terms and conditions of the contract

The work includes providing supervision, equipment, materials, labor, travel and all means necessary to provide the Navy and the Navy on behalf of Department of Defense (DOD), or other Federal agencies when authorized, an immediate response for civilian construction contract capability. The contract will provide construction, design/build construction, and related engineering services in response to natural disasters, humanitarian assistance, conflict, or projects with similar characteristics, and other urgent requirements. The work also includes the capability to set up and operate Material Liaison Office (MLO) at a deployed site in support of Naval Construction Force operations.

The Contractors may be tasked to participate in military exercises. Work may include occasional projects to ensure readiness to perform under emergency situations.

Work will be predominately construction. The Contractors, in support of the construction effort, may be required to provide initial Base Operating Support (BOS) Services, which will be incidental to construction efforts. Should the need arise for incidental emergency services under this contract, NAVFAC Facilities Services Contract/Base Operating Support templates will be used which are performance-based and comply with Office of Management and Budget’s and DOD’s performance-based services. These services are primarily anticipated in support of facilities overseas, but may also be ordered for work in the United States in support of disaster recovery efforts and other contingency operations. The Service Contract Act and other applicable clauses will be incorporated by individual task order, as necessary, for stateside work.

Construction critical response during an emergency will primarily support aid for natural disasters, military conflict or humanitarian aid. Early mobilization and start up construction is the utmost goal of this procurement. The potentially massive logistics of moving people, materials, and equipment for numerous and simultaneous projects and work sites will require flexibility and extensive management and coordination. The Contractor shall be required to work very closely and in detail with Navy procurement, planning, and program officials. The goals and planned actions may be developed through Contractor and Navy iterative discussions. The contract is not meant to necessarily eliminate all other construction procurements surrounding a situation, but is to provide a critical action response and continued momentum in providing recovery or support.

The intent of the contract is to have maximum flexibility in construction and related planning, design, engineering, and construction material logistics. The following are types of construction products the Contractor could be required to provide: (The list is not all-inclusive).

Dredging Airfield runway construction and/or repair Airfield facilities construction Administrative and educational facilities Hardened facilities and personnel bunkers Electric power plant Electric power distribution systems Communication facilities Water treatment plant Sewage treatment plant Enemy containment and processing facilities Water well drilling Stabilization Building Envelope Repairs Fencing Garbage disposal / recycling facilities Transportation depots for materials Warehouse facilities for construction materials Warehouse facilities for other customers Facilities for berthing and billeting Facilities for equipment dispatch, repair, decontamination Ammunition storage facilities Rail facilities Bridges Causeways

Medical clinics/field hospitals Road construction (asphalt, concrete, engineered fill) Soils engineering Fire fighting facilities and distribution systems Pier and Waterfront construction Petroleum handling pier facilities Petroleum storage facilities *Chemical, Biological, and Radiological area decontamination *Environmental restoration Operations of power generation, concrete and asphalt plants, etc.

* The contractor may be required to perform long term and/or controlled clean-up of sites in austere and/or contingency environments. Contractors will not be “first responders”. The Contractor may be required to respond to multiple requests for environmental support at various sites. These services may include actions, such as, but not limited to, the following: Performing remedial and/or removal actions; expedited and emergency response actions at sites; facility operation, maintenance and instruction; developing work plans; range clean up and closure; performing site characterizations, groundwater characterization studies; Anti-terrorist/force protection (ATFP) hazmat release incident response (not first responder) and remediation of ATFP related hazmat such as anthrax or any chemical, biological or radiological (CBR) agent.
