SMALL BUSINESS SET-ASIDE, NAVFAC SW

Question #16: For Section F Example Projects, RFP states "For the proposed team, submit a maximum of ten (10) specific, recently completed projects with an A-E fee within the task order range identified above..."

The RFP also states "The minimum value of individual task orders executed under this contract is $200,000. The maximum value of individual task orders executed under this contract is $2,500,000".

A. Can you please confirm that any project experience listed in Section F with an A-E fee outside of the $200,000-$2,500,000 range will not be accepted?

B. Also, does the A-E fee that you are referring to mean the entire design fee (Arch, Mech, Civil, Structural, etc.) or can we base it off just our fee? Please note that we do not have access to the entire design fee amount for most of our projects since we were subconsultants.

C. Lastly, does this requirement only apply to experience listed in Section F, or does it apply to the resumes as well?

Response #16:

A. The example projects upper limit A-E fee has been removed from the first sentence of the Submission Requirements for SF 330, Part 1, Section F, Example Projects, CRITERION 2, SPECIALIZED EXPERIENCE AND TECHNICAL COMPETENCE as follows:

For the proposed team, submit a maximum of ten (10) specific, recently completed projects with a minimum A-E fee of $200,000, that best illustrate overall team experience in the required primary and secondary services in the types of MEP engineering projects listed above.

Thus, example projects with A-E fee less than the minimum will not be accepted for review.

B. The AE fee refers to the MEP portion of the project design fee since this contract is for

MEP project. As stated in the Submission Requirements for Section F, Example Projects, CRITERION 2, “…recently completed projects with a minimum A-E fee of $200,000, that best illustrate overall team experience in the required primary and secondary services in the types of MEP engineering projects listed above.

C. This requirement only applies for Section F and does not apply to the key personnel's resume. Submission Requirements for resumes are stated in Section E, Resumes of Key Personnel; Criterion 1.
