Section A: EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

1. This Request for Proposal (RFP) is to competitively procure a lease-to-purchase of approximately

400,000 to 600,000 square feet (SF) for a modern distribution center within a 50-mile range of the existing West Coast Distribution Center for Navy Exchange Service Command (NEXCOM) located in Chino, CA (see Attachment (7) Map showing Area of Consideration). NEXCOM intends to commence operational occupancy 8-10 months after award of lease for an initial term of one (1) year, with fourteen (14) one (1) year renewal options. The Government shall have the option to purchase the facility during initial term and subsequent four (4) option periods.

Offeror(s) are required to provide purchase prices for each of the first five (5) years, and the

Government reserves the right to negotiate the purchase price based on Fair Market Value.

Offeror(s) that do not provide purchase options are considered non-responsive. The Government shall have no obligation to purchase the facility at any time.

The leased space must meet all Minimum Technical Requirements as stated in Section C.1, Minimum Technical Requirements, at the time of the Offer submission. In addition, the leased space must also meet all Specifications as set forth in Section C.2, Specification, below, and

Attachment (2) – Facility Requirements., at the time of Government’s occupancy.

In the event the proposed location does not meet all Specifications listed within this RFP at the time of Offer submission, the Offeror may elect to perform whatever improvements necessary to meet the Specifications (Tenant Improvements) and include the total cost of these improvements as a lump sum amount with the Offer, separate from the annual rental amount. Due to the nature of this being one (1) year firm term lease, the Government is prepared to provide to the Lessor, upon completion, review, and acceptance of the work, a lump sum payment for the Tenant

Improvements. The Offeror is expected to accurately identify what improvements will need to be conducted and the total cost to perform this work at the time of submission. No additional amendments or modifications to the cost of Tenant Improvements will be accepted by the

Government.

Upon occupancy, the Government will need to make additional alterations and additional improvements, not required to be performed by the Lessor or contained in this RFP, to the facility in order to conduct operations, considered as “Government Furnished/Government Installed

(GF/GI)” equipment. Examples of GF/GI equipment are a conveyor/racking system, storage racks, material handling equipment, and related material and/or personal property. The Offer shall clearly indicate the Offeror’s authorization to allow the Government, utilizing Government-procured contractors and support personnel, to make the necessary improvements on the leased premises after taking occupancy to the leased facility. However, the improvements and

U.S. Navy Request for Proposal: N62470-26-RP-00006 4 installation of GF/GI equipment shall be documented with execution of a bilateral amendment to the lease, and the Government shall retain the right to remove the GF/GI equipment or abandon it in place should the Government terminate the lease for any reason.

Tradeoff procedures will be utilized for this lease-purchase action in order to ensure selection of the source evidencing the best overall capability to comply with lease-purchase requirements in a manner most advantageous to the Government when considering all evaluation factors.

Offeror(s) are encouraged to demonstrate approaches maximizing value and advantage to the

Government. The Offeror(s) proposing the most advantageous offer for the Government will be selected. The Government intends this RFP to result in the acquisition of the right to use distribution space for the stated purpose and the right to make improvements and install GF/GI to conduct operations. These rights will be prescribed in the lease and a bilateral amendment lease that the Government will subsequently enter into with the successful Offeror. A sample lease is provided for reference as Attachment (1).

Offers are due to the designated representative Tracy Chapman by 12:00 PM (noon) EST on

July 13, 2026 at tracy.a.chapman.civ@us.navy.mil RE: Navy Contract Number N62470-26-RP-

00006 and must include all information specified in this RFP. Please send a separate email to tracy.a.chapman.civ@us.navy.mil to ensure proposal was received due to file size capacity.

Offers shall remain valid for six (6) months from the offer due date. There will be no public opening of offers, and no information will be disclosed regarding offers until an award has been made. Offers and accompanying documents are prepared at the exclusive cost and risk of the

Offeror. The Government may, at its option: (1) accept an initial offer without discussions or negotiations, or (2) award to other than the lowest priced offered, or (3) reject any and all offers without stating justification.

Within ten (10) days of award, the successful Offeror must execute the lease provided as

Attachment (1). The selected Offeror, if providing Tenant Improvements, shall provide a

Performance Bond, Attachment (3), and the final design of the leased space incorporating these improvements within sixty (60) days of final award notification. The final design will be promptly reviewed and must be approved by the Government prior to construction commencement.

Executive Summary and the remainder of the RFP, provisions of the remainder of the RFP control.

If this RFP is amended, all record holders of the RFP will be provided a dated copy of the Amendment.

Furthermore, all terms and conditions which are not modified shall remain unchanged and shall continue in full force and effect. Offerors shall acknowledge receipt of any Amendment by signing and returning one copy of the Amendment to the RECO. The RECO must receive the signed acknowledgement of the

Amendment by the time and at the place specified in the RFP for the receipt of offers.

B.7 Late Submission, Modifications or Withdrawals of Proposals

(a) Any offer received at the office, designated in section B.1 above, after the exact time specified for receipt will not be considered unless it is received before award is made and:

(1) It was sent by email to the designated Point of Contact not later than July 13, 2026 specified for receipt of proposals, or

(2) It is determined that late receipt was due solely to mishandling by the Government after receipt at the proper Government office, or

(3) It is the only proposal received.

B.8 Evaluation Process

(a) All offers will first be evaluated to determine whether the offer(s) meets the Minimum Technical

Requirements as described in Section C.1, and Attachment (2). Offer(s) that do not meet the

Minimum Technical Requirements shall be considered non-responsive.

(b) 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(s) most advantageous to the Government, price and other factors considered.

(c) 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 RECO later determines them to be necessary. In addition, if the RECO 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 RECO may limit the number of proposals in the competitive range to the greatest number that will permit efficient competition among the most highly rated proposals.

U.S. Navy Request for Proposal: N62470-26-RP-00006 10

NOTE: The Government intends to make award on initial offers. If the Government, at its sole discretion, determines discussions are necessary, a competitive range with the most competitive offers will be established. If discussions are held, Offerors will be provided an opportunity to revise their proposals at the conclusion of discussions.

(d) Evaluation Factors:

(1) The Government will select a successful Offeror using the Best Value Source Selection

Process. The Government will use “Tradeoffs” as the source selection approach. A tradeoff process is appropriate when it may be in the best interest of the Government to consider award to other than the lowest priced Offeror or the highest technically rated

Offeror. The Government will award the lease to the Offeror whose offer demonstrates best value and is most advantageous to the Government. The

Government will evaluate each Offer independent of all others.

(2) The Evaluation Factors represent key areas of importance and emphasis. Proposals will be evaluated based on Factors 1 - 3, identified below.

NOTE: Factors 1 and 2 are of the greatest importance and weighed equally as the two highest of the three factors. Factor 3 is of the second highest importance.

i. Factor No. 1: Price

The Total Annual Rent, the total cost of Tenant Improvements, as well as the purchase prices offered for each of the first five (5) years of the lease term will be evaluated together to determine the Offer most advantageous to the Government. Offers requiring none or minimal Tenant Improvements in order to meet the Specifications as described in Section

C.2 may be preferred. No adjectival rating will be utilized for this factor; however, the

Government reserves the right to assign greater preference to an Offer requiring Tenant

Improvements or proposing higher overall cost if one, or both, of the Factors 2 and 3 are determined to be most advantageous to the Government.

ii. Factor No. 2: Technical Requirements and Specification

Minimum Technical Requirements will be evaluated on “Met” or “Not Met” basis. All proposals that do not meet one or more Minimum Technical Requirements as described in Section C.1 will be considered non-responsive and will not be considered further. In addition, Offers that currently do not meet all Specifications as described in Section C.2.

and does not propose to meet those Specifications through Tenant Improvements will be considered non-responsive and will not be considered further. Each Offer will be evaluated using the adjectival ratings as described in Section B.8(h) of this RFP based on how it meets or proposes to meet all Specifications. Proposals may offer facilities or designs that exceed the baseline Specifications described in Section C.2. Offers will be evaluated based on physical condition of the facility and all required fixtures and appurtenances as well as operational efficiency of the layout. Greater preference may be given to properties that are newer and allow ability for the Government to expand. The

U.S. Navy Request for Proposal: N62470-26-RP-00006 11

Government will evaluate the Proposals to determine which facility will provide the most benefit to the Government's operations in terms of efficiency and capabilities. Proposals that offer greater operational capability and efficiency may be evaluated more favorably.

iii. Factor No. 3: Area of Consideration:

All proposals with facilities located outside the delineated area as indicated with a red line on Attachment (7) (“Area of Consideration”) will be considered non-responsive and will not be evaluated further. The Government will consider all properties located within the Area of Consideration and evaluate them using the adjectival ratings described in

Section B.8(h) of this RFP. Greater consideration will be given to properties that are within shorter driving distance to existing West Coast Distribution Center, 4250

Eucalyptus Avenue, Chino, California, 91710.

(h) The Government will evaluate Factor 2, Technical Requirements and Specifications and Factor 3, Area of Consideration using the below adjectival ratings.

Rating Evaluation Excellent Proposal/factor demonstrates thorough and detailed understanding of requirements. Technical approach and capabilities significantly exceed performance and capability standards. Proposal/factor offers one or more strengths.

Strengths significantly outweigh weaknesses, if any. The proposal/factor represents a high probability of success with no apparent risk in meeting the Government’s requirements. See preferences provided in factors 1-3 above.

Satisfactory Proposal/factor demonstrates acceptable understanding of requirements. Technical approach and capabilities meet performance and capability standards.

Proposal/factor offers no strengths, or, if there are any strengths, these strengths are offset by weaknesses. The proposal/factor represents a reasonable probability of success with overall moderate degree of risk in meeting the Government’s requirements. See preferences provided in factors 1-3 above.

Marginal Proposal/factor demonstrates a lack of understanding of requirements. Technical approach and capabilities do not meet performance and capability standards necessary for acceptable contract performance. Proposal/factor contains major errors, omissions, significant weaknesses and/or deficiencies. The proposal/factor represents a very low probability of success with an extremely high degree of risk in meeting the Government’s requirements. Proposal/factor could only be made satisfactory with major revision of the proposal. See preferences provided in factors 1-3 above.

(i) Price Analysis

The Government will perform analysis by one or more of the following techniques to ensure a fair and reasonable price:

(1) Comparison of proposed prices received in response to the RFP.

(2) Comparison of proposed prices with the Independent Government Estimate (IGE).

(3) Comparison of proposed prices with available historical information.

(4) Comparison of market survey results.

U.S. Navy Request for Proposal: N62470-26-RP-00006 12
