RESPONSE: There is one (1) WHE in B23670A and one (1) WHE in B23670B

RFI #32: Historically, NAVFAC SW the spend has been approximately $24M/year.

1. Would the Government please confirm if the contract vehicle is expected to be used for at least $20M/year?

2. Would the Government please provide the projected spend plan per year on this contract vehicle by base and/or locale?

3. Would the Government please identify which base/locale the Government plans to use the MASC for recurring work?

RESPONSE:

1. The government anticipates performance up to $25M/year with a Not To Exceed amount of $99M over the life of the contract.

2. An IDIQ is specifically for Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity, because it is unknown what each Base will require in a given year.

3. Again, the Government cannot identify which Base/Locale plans to use the MASC for recurring work. This is a new requirement, and thus, no historical data available. It is very difficult to extrapolate what each Base may use the MASC for in the future.

RFI #33: Would the Government please release the Government and Industry attendees (Name, Company, Position, Email, Phone number) at the pre-solicitation conference.

RESPONSE: Please refer to the “Preproposal Conference Attendees” document included as an attachment to this Amendment 0002.

RFI #34: The RFP does not indicate a minimum Company Facility Clearance Level. Given the NAVFAC SW AOR and the range of customers, it is highly probable that recurring and non-recurring work may be required in a controlled facility. The Navy and Marine Corps operations in many cases are highly classified.

We have many customers who on a base or complex have the majority of the space allocated to unclassified facilities where a FCL and a personnel security clearance is not required. On the same facility/base complex there is also a highly controlled facility to include sensitive compartmented information facilities (SCIFs). Ongoing maintenance and services is required.

Recommendation – We recommend the Government modify the RFP to include the requirement for a Facility Clearance Level of Top Secret in order to support unforeseen requirements and support a range of customer requirements. By issuing a DD254 with a TS FCL, NAVFAC SW provides flexibility by ensuring all awardees have the capability to support all base/facility future requirements.

RESPONSE: If a requirement project requires Top Secret Clearance access, the Solicitation for the project will be identified in the RFP and will be issued at the Task Order level.

RFI #35: Paragraph (b) states “A table of contents, list of acronyms, and any relevant/associated tables or figures is required.” Would the Government please confirm that the table of contents, list of acronyms and any relevant/associated tables or figures are exempt from page count?”

RESPONSE: The Table of Contents, list of acronyms and any relevant/associated tables or figures are exempt from the total page limits.

RFI #36: Appears Amendment 0001 there was a transposition and a large section of Section B is missing. Would the Government please confirm that the Amendment 0001 reduction of Section B is correct?

RESPONSE: The purpose of Amendment 0001 in regards to Section B – Supplies or Services and Prices, was to add by full text certain language. It did not remove anything previously noted in Section B in the Solicitation. All other terms in Section B remained unchanged.

RFI #37: Tab #1 Factor 1 Recent Relevant experience indicates “Submit a minimum of three (3) and a maximum of four (4) relevant projects performed by the offeror as the Prime Contractor that best describes the offeror’s experience on projects that are similar in size, scope, and complexity to the projects that may be ordered under the solicited contract.”

Comment – The phrase “minimum of three (3) and a maximum of four (4)” is very restrictive for small businesses and limits the ability to provide an offer.

Question - Would the Government please consider the modification of the phrase “minimum of three (3) and a maximum of four (4)” and replace with “up to four?”

Thereby making the requirement read: “(i) Submit up to four (4) relevant projects performed by the offeror as the Prime Contractor that best describes the offeror’s experience on projects that are similar in size, scope, and complexity to the projects that may be ordered under the solicited contract.”

RESPONSE: Factor 1 Recent Relevant Experience remains unchanged.

RFI #38: Background – The RFP requires offerors to complete Exhibit B for each relevant experience contract. The instructions state, “Individual blocks on this form may be expanded; however, total page limit for each project data sheet shall not exceed three single-sided pages.

Comment – When blank, Exhibit B is almost a full three pages. This significantly restricts an offeror’s ability to demonstrate that projects “are similar in size, scope, and complexity to the projects that may be ordered under the solicited contract.” This limited ability to expand blocks also prevents adequate responses to items 9 and 10, which require “detailed” explanation and description.

Questions –

1. Will the Government consider increasing the page limitation for Exhibit B from three pages to four pages to allow offerors to provide adequate detail?

2. Would the Government release a Microsoft Word Version of the document as the PDF file is exceedingly difficult to edit?

1. The page limitation for Exhibit B remains unchanged.

2. The Microsoft Word version of Exhibit B is included with Amendment 0002.

RFI #39: RFI #38 was the exact same question as RFI #37.

RESPONSE: See Response to RFI #37.

RFI #40: Background - The solicitation alternates between requiring the submission of an (SF) 1449 (which was not provided) and an (SF) 33.

Questions

1. Please confirm that the required document is the (SF) 33 provided with the original solicitation?

2. Would the Government please confirm the date and time for proposal submission?

1. The required document is the Standard Form (SF) 33.

2. The date and time for proposal submission has been extended as follows: Monday, June 14, 2021 at

12:00pm PDT.

RFI #41: Background - Amendment 0001 Exhibits A through F were provided in Adobe Acrobat format and do not allow editing. We are having difficulty preparing the proposal.

Questions

RFI #45: Would the Government provide Davis Bacon Act wage determination?

RESPONSE: See attached Davis Bacon Act (DBA) Wage Determination General Decision Number: CA20210001 issued 04/23/2021.

RFI #46: Background – The RFP identifies a relevant project as “At least 50% complete within the last five (5) years prior to the solicitation issuance date” and “at least 50% complete in terms of amount paid for contract performance.”

Comment – These phrases are very restrictive for small businesses and limit the ability to provide an offer. As written, for example, a contract with an eight-year period of performance will likely require four years of completed performance to reach 50% of the amount paid for contract performance in order to make it relevant for consideration.

Question

1. Would the Government consider removing the 50% completion requirement and replacing it with one year of performance?

RESPONSE: Factor 1 – Recent, Relevant Experience of the Firm remains unchanged.

RFI #47: Background – The requirements state that past performance contracts must be “at least 50% complete in terms of amount paid for contract performance,” and “project Data Sheets submitted for projects that are not at least 50% complete within five (5) years prior to the solicitation issuance date will be removed prior to evaluation.”

Question

1. If a base contract (IDIQ) allows ordering over and above work, and receives all or most funding on the base contract/IDIQ level, is it permissible (compliant) to submit the entire IDIQ as a past performance contract reference if Task Orders are not individually awarded?

RESPONSE: It is not permissible to submit the entire IDIQ as a past performance contract reference if Task Orders.

For details, refer to Factor 1 – Recent, Relevant Experience of the Firm.

RFI #48: The questions submitted to the Government are critical to the completion of offerors’ proposals and until then several items remain pending.

In order to give offeror’s sufficient time to adjust, complete, and submit compliant proposals, we request that the Government extend the due date until at least two weeks after the release of the Q&As.

RESPONSE: The Proposal Due Date is hereby extended to Monday, June 14, 2020 at 12:00PM Pacific Daylight Time (PDT).

RFI #49: This spec item contains language requiring specific personnel be trained under NAVFAC MO-200. Is this training available through NAVFAC? Are there other resources qualified to provide this certification?

RFI #54: Section 0200000 - 2.7.1.2 and 2.7.1.2.1 list both a Quality Manager and Quality Control Personnel who "shall be on site at all times" with this contract being their "primary duty and responsibility."
