2. BASIS FOR AWARD

2.1 The Government reserves the right to eliminate from consideration for award any or all offers at any time prior to 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, non-price and other factors considered.

As stated in the solicitation, the Government intends to evaluate proposals and award a contract without discussions with 2.2

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 2.3 allow consideration of award to other than the lowest priced Offeror or other than the highest technically rated Offeror.

The relative order of importance of the non-price evaluation factors is the technical factors (Factors 1, 2, 3, and 4) are of 2.4 equal importance to each other and, when combined, are equal in importance to the past performance evaluation/performance confidence assessment factor (Factor 5). 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 significantly more important than price.

The importance of price will increase if the Offerors' non-price proposals are considered essentially equal in terms of 2.5 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.

Any proposal found to have a deficiency in meeting the stated solicitation requirements or performance objectives will be 2.6 considered ineligible for award, unless the deficiency is corrected through discussions. An Unacceptable rating in any of the non-price/price factors will result in an overall rating of "Unacceptable" for the non-price/price factors, unless 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.

3. EVALUATION FACTORS FOR AWARD

FAR Part 9.6 defines Contractor team arrangements. Contractor team arrangement, as used in this subpart, means an 3.1 arrangement in which -- (1) Two or more companies form a partnership or joint venture to act as a potential prime Contractor; or (2) A potential prime Contractor agrees with one or more other companies to have them act as its subcontractors under a specified Government contract or acquisition program.

If an Offeror is utilizing experience information of affiliates/subsidiaries/parent /LLC/LTD member companies (name is 3.2 not exactly as stated on the SF1442), the proposal shall clearly demonstrate that the affiliate/subsidiary/parent/LLC/LTD member companies will have involvement in the performance of the contract in order for the experience information of the affiliate/subsidiary/parent/LLC/LTD member companies to be considered. The proposal shall state specific commitments of technical resources (e.g., personnel, management, equipment that the affiliate/subsidiary/parent/LLC/LTD member companies shall commit to the performance of this contract). In particular, the proposal shall clearly state the specific commitments of resources of the affiliate/subsidiary/parent/LLC/LTD member companies in terms of the work it will either self-perform or manage on behalf of the Offeror in the performance of the contract.

Vague commitments to support are insufficient; rather, they must demonstrate intent/manner of actual performance on the 3.3 contract action being solicited.

The Offeror shall submit a signed copy of partnership agreement, teaming agreement, or letter of commitment for each 3.4 member of the Offeror's team (e.g., partner, team member, subcontractor, parent company, subsidiary, or other affiliated company, etc.) whose projects are submitted to demonstrate Construction or Design Experience. The Government will not consider any project submitted for Factor 1 if it was performed by a firm other than the Offeror and there is no supporting partnership agreement, teaming agreement, or letter of commitment.

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

Factor 1 - Corporate Experience Factor 2 - Scheduling Factor 3 - Small Business Utilization Factor 4 - Safety Factor 5 - Past Performance

The distinction between corporate experience and past performance is that corporate experience pertains to the types of 3.6 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.

These targets are based on a percentage of total planned subcontract dollars. These goals will be incorporated into the solicitation.

Small Business (SB) 40% HUBZone SB 3% Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) 5% Small Disadvantaged Business 5% Woman-Owned Small Business (WOSB) 9%

The SBSP shall be consistent with the commitments offered in the Small Business Participation and Commitment Strategy (Attachment E). In accordance with DFARS 215.304(c)(i), when an evaluation assesses the extent that small businesses are specifically identified in proposals, those small businesses considered in the evaluation shall be listed in the SBSP.

Please note that SBSP goals and the participation rates provided in the Small Business Participation Commitment Document (SBPCD) WILL NOT be the same. The participation rates within the SBPCD are provided as percentages of the total contract value; subcontract plan goals are provided as a percentage of planned subcontracting dollars. While the percentages will differ, the types of products/services identified in the SBSP, should be the same as those products /services identified in the SBPCD. Likewise, the planned small business subcontract dollars in the SBSP will be equal to (or in some cases greater than) the extent of small business participation identified in the SBPCD. Although required to be submitted with offeror's price proposal, this information will not be evaluated as part of the price proposal. This information forms the basis of your firm's responsibility determination should your firm be considered for award.

Proposal packages from unsuccessful offerors will not be returned to the offeror but shall be destroyed by the Contracting Officer. No certificate of destruction will be issued.

(b) Basis of Evaluation:

The Government will evaluate price based on the total price. Total price consists of the basic requirements and all option items. The Government intends to evaluate all options and has included the provision FAR 52.217-5, Evaluation of Options (JUL 1990) in the solicitation. In accordance with FAR 52.217-5, the evaluation of options will not obligate the Government to exercise the option(s). Analysis will be performed by one or more of the following techniques to ensure a fair and reasonable price.

Comparison of proposed prices received in response to the RFP.

Comparison of proposed prices with the IGCE.

Comparison of proposed prices with available historical information.

Comparison of market survey results.

3.8 NON-PRICE FACTORS

Factor 1 - Corporate Experience

(a) Solicitation Submittal Requirements:

The Offeror shall submit the following information regarding Construction Experience:

Submit a maximum of five (5) relevant construction projects that best demonstrate your experience on relevant projects that are similar in size, scope, and complexity to aspects of the utility distribution work anticipated under this contract. For the purposes of this evaluation, relevance is further defined as a project including ALL of the following:

Construction of distribution systems for power, water, steam, or gas.

A construction value equal to or exceeding $50,000,000, however, offerors shall provide the value as of the day of project award.

Completed or substantially completed (80% completed) within ten years of the date of issuance of this solicitation.

Further, the Offeror's collective set of submitted projects shall also aggregately demonstrate experience performing construction services satisfying EACH of the following:

One project with a construction value equal to or exceeding $100,000,000.

One project constructing a distribution system for power. For example, these types of projects would include equipment such as transformers, substations, and switchgears.

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 B) 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) 8.5" x 11", 1" margin left/right/top/bottom, and 10-point font or larger. Attachment B submittals that do not comply with these requirements will not be evaluated.

For all submitted projects, the description of the project shall clearly describe the relevancy to the project requirements of this RFP.

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.

Provide applicable documentation on projects that were validated and/or certified through a Sustainable Third-Party Certification program.

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. If a project was performed by a JV, and not all partners from that JV are on the JV proposed for this contract, the offeror shall clearly demonstrate what portion of the work was performed by the JV member, including the overall percentage, offering on this contract and shall not include work performed by the JV as a whole. The Offeror shall also submit a SIGNED copy of the Joint Venture agreement indicating the proposed participation of each Joint Venture member. 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. The proposal shall state specific commitments of technical resources (e.g. personnel, equipment) that the affiliate/subsidiary/parent/LLC/LTD member companies commit to the performance of this contract. In particular, the proposal will clearly state the specific commitments of resources of the affiliate/subsidiary/parent/LLC/LTD member that will be located at the worksites and company offices in the city /area of the project. The proposal shall also describe specific roles of the affiliate/subsidiary/ parent/LLC/LTD member companies in terms of the work it will either self-perform or manage on behalf of the Offeror in performance of the contract. Failure to submit this information may result in a lower rating.

(b) Basis of Evaluation:

The basis of evaluation will include the Offeror's demonstrated experience and depth of experience in performing relevant construction 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 five (5) projects for construction and projects will be evaluated in the order they are listed. Any projects submitted in excess of the five (5) for Construction Experience will not be considered.

Proposals demonstrating experience self-performing relevant features of work may be considered more favorably than those that do not demonstrate self-performance.

Factor 2 - Scheduling

(a) Solicitation Submittal Requirements:

Project Schedule Narrative:

The Offeror shall provide a narrative limited to ten (10) single-sided pages or, five (5) double sided pages, 8.5" x 11", 1" margin left/right/top/bottom, and 10-point font or larger.

The narrative shall be based upon a total contract duration of 1930 days, an assumed award date of 12 August 2026 and Notice to Proceed for Full site access no later than 29 September 2026.

The offeror at a minimum, shall clearly identify the proposed dates for the following: Ordering and delivery of long lead materials impacting the critical path and meeting all defined milestones of the Division I specification.

Provide a project schedule using P6 software. Submit with the proposal, the PDF of the full schedule output via PIEE and the native (.xer) file via email to Stephanie Wray at Stephanie.L.Wray2.civ@us.navy.mil. The proposed project schedule need not be cost-loaded; however, it shall serve as the basis for the Offeror's price proposal. The above completion dates in item shall be reflected in this schedule along with major construction activities, milestones, and critical path items. The schedule shall be on 11"x17" pages, single-sided, and there is no page limit.

NOTE:

Narrative and schedule are not allowed to propose variances from Contract requirements. For example, Offerors are not allowed to propose contractual conditions that shift schedule risk to the Government or propose limitations on the ability of the Government to properly administer the contract.

Failure to address any of the submission requirements will result in a deficiency.

The assumed award date is stated for proposal evaluation purposes only and does not infer or guarantee that an award will be made by that date.

(b) Basis of Evaluation:

The Offeror's proposed construction completion dates, project schedule, and narratives will be evaluated to ensure timely completion of the project within the dates and milestones specified.

The evaluation will consider how well the Offeror understands the major construction activities, task predecessors, and critical path items to execute the project.

Proposals that identify innovative approaches and lessons learned from previous completed projects that will be applied to this project to mitigate schedule risk and recover schedule time in the event of project delays may be rated more favorably.

Factor 3 - Small Business Utilization and Participation

It is the policy of the Government to provide maximum practicable opportunities in its acquisitions to Small Business (SB) concerns, including Small Disadvantaged Business (SDB), Woman-Owned Small Business (WOSB), Historically Underutilized Business Zone Small Business (HUBZone SB), Veteran-Owned Small Business (VOSB), Service- Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB), and other small business concerns. Further, it is the policy of the Government that such concerns will have the maximum practicable opportunity to participate in contract performance consistent with its efficient performance. This Factor assesses both the historical achievements in utilizing small business concerns and the proposed small business participation commitment for this requirement. The offeror is required to demonstrate its previous commitment to SBs through its record of past utilization of SBs and the level of commitment to small business if awarded a contract under this solicitation.

(a) Solicitation Submittal Requirements:

All Offerors (large, non-profits, AND small businesses) shall use Attachment D (Historical Small Business Utilization) to demonstrate their historical utilization of SBs. Each project submitted under Factor 1, Corporate Experience, shall be included on Attachment D. Failure to include each project submitted under Factor 1, Corporate Experience, on Attachment D, or the failure to fully complete Attachment A for each project may result in a deficiency. Only complete Attachment D. Information provided in a different format and/or on a form created by the offeror will not be evaluated.

Attachments or addendums to Attachment D will not be evaluated. Offerors are permitted to expand portions of the form, as needed, to provide sufficient response. Instructions regarding how to complete Attachment D are included at the beginning of the attachment.

All Offerors (large, non-profits, AND small businesses) shall use Attachment E (Small Business Participation Commitment Document (SBPCD)) to submit the following required information for evaluation of this factor:

To demonstrate commitment to use small business concerns in the performance of this contract, identify by name the subcontractors that will be used to support each small business category, including SDB, WOSB, HUBZone SB, VOSB, and SDVOSBs. Identify the type and complexity of product/service to be subcontracted, and the type of commitment (i.e., teaming agreement, joint venture agreement, mentor protege agreement, letter of commitment, etc.) with each subcontractor.

If subcontractors are not identified by name, offerors shall provide a detailed explanation why subcontractors are not identified. If firm written commitments with SBs are not in place, offerors shall provide an explanation and rationale on the ability to achieve the proposed participation. (See Attachment E, paragraph 5)

If an LB offeror does not intend to subcontract, provide a detailed explanation why subcontracting would not result in efficient contract performance. SBs intending to 100% self-perform are not required to provide an explanation. (See Attachment E, paragraph 6).

To demonstrate maximum practicable participation of small businesses, identify (in terms of dollar value and percentage of the total contract value) the offeror's proposed small business participation. The minimum required small business participation (i.e.
