5.0 TAB B- FACTOR 1 - SPECIALIZED EXPERIENCE

5.1 SUBMISSION REQUIREMENTS

The prime contractor and the design firm(s) (or prime contractor if design is to be self-performed) must each demonstrate recent, relevant experience on similar projects, using Construction – Specialized Experience form (Attachment 2), and Designer – Specialized Experience Form (Attachment 3) at the end of the section. Offerors may rely on contracts performed for state, local, or corporate and private entities if the cited projects are similar in scope, magnitude, and complexity as those described in 5.1.1.2. Offerors may submit relevant projects in which the participating firms were a part of a joint venture. Offerors submitting as a joint venture may submit relevant past joint venture projects as well as relevant projects from each of the joint venture firms. Offerors may submit projects from key subcontractors reflecting relevant design or construction experience performed by that key subcontractor. However, each included firm (i.e.

subcontracor, sister-company etc.) must submit a signed Letter of Commitment. Each firm shall provide information that demonstrates the experience relevant to its role on this project. Submit projects that are 100% constructed and turned over no longer than six (6) years preceding the date that proposals are due.

Offeror will note the date of completion in proposal materials. If any firm has multiple functions or divisions, limit the project examples to those performed by the division or unit submitting the offer. Design firms may list prime contractors they have worked with for government, private or commercial customers. The offeror shall select the design firm(s) and indicate its selected Designer of Record in the proposal. If projects were design-build, identify them as such. With exception of the discussion of teaming experience and LEED/Third Party sustainability experience specified in paragraph 5.1.2, the offeror shall submit no more than six projects to demonstrate capability.

5.1.1. Submit project matrix, corresponding to the submitted projects with up to six (6) project matrix examples, to demonstrate relevant construction and design experience. "Relevant" is defined as projects similar to the project in this solicitation in scope, magnitude, and complexity and have a logical connection to the requirements of this RFP.

5.1.2. The Government will consider extent of recent experience, degree of relationship of such experience to this project and demonstrated familiarity with applicable codes and local conditions. Some examples of relevancy (see definition of relevancy in paragraph 5.1.1.) to this project include, but are not limited to the Number, size, type of work, complexity, location, and the firm's role and extent of work self-performed (breaking out all work and simply "pouring the sidewalks" on a cited project are examples of less relevant experience).

5.1.3. Three (3) types of experience areas that are considered relevant include: 1) Construction of

Location Factor Number Description Relative Importance

Tab B Factor 1 Specialized Experience 1st (Most Important Factor)

Tab C Factor 2 Past Performance 2nd (Slightly less important than Factor 1) similarly- sized facility by contract value of $30 million or greater; 2) Construction of facilities with similar features and functions; and 3) Military Construction (MILCON). Projects must include at least one of the three experience criteria to be considered relevant. Proposals must demonstrate, at a minimum, all three relevant experience areas through submitted projects. Additional consideration will be given to projects that can demonstrate all three relevant experience areas or additional relevant experience beyond the minimum requirement. Only relevant projects 100% completed and turned over within the past six (6) years from the date proposals are due shall be submitted.

Offerors should explain how the information provided is relevant to the proposed acquisition, and the projects selected should clearly demonstrate the construction capabilities of the offeror. In addition, the offeror must clearly identify to which, if any, of the three (3) especially relevant experience area(s) each project example pertains (e.g., Project A may qualify and be listed for construction of similarly-sized facility by contract value and military construction, while Project B may qualify and be listed only for construction of similarly sized facility by contract value, etc.).

5.1.1.2. For Design Experience: In addition to the requirements in 5.1.1., above, the offeror must submit only those projects for which the Designer was the Designer of Record. Offerors must explain how the information provided is relevant to the proposed acquisition, and the projects selected should clearly demonstrate the design capabilities of the offeror. In addition, the offeror must clearly identify to which, if any, of the three (3) especially relevant experience area(s) each project example pertains (e.g., Project A may qualify and be listed for Design of similarly-sized facility by contract value and Military Construction (MILCON), while Project B may qualify and be listed only for Design of similarly sized facility by contract value, etc.).

5.1.1.3. Teaming, LEED, & Design-Build Experience: The offeror must describe any previous teaming experience within the proposed organization, if not described in the project list. Describe team members' experience on LEED projects and/or projects with Third Party Sustainable certification, if not included on the project list. Offeror may describe design-build experience on other type projects. The above information is limited to projects that are 100% constructed and turned over within the past six (6) years preceding the date proposals are due.

5.1.1.4. Definitions for Factor 1

1. Scope means containing many of the elements of work and of physical size of a vertical construction two-story building with corporate, administrative, or headquarters functions, consisting of a minimum of 40,000 square feet.

1. Complexity means new construction with varied elements of work or sequencing of the work required for a two-story corporate facility/administrative/headquarters facility and any construction of a Sensitive Compartmented Information Facility (SCIF).

2. Similar means not necessarily identical but showing a resemblance in qualities or characteristics of the proposed project, such as, for example, a two-story corporate facility/administrative/headquarters facility and any construction of a SCIF.

3. Recent means completion within six (6) years preceding the proposal due date stated in the Solicitation.

4. Magnitude means a total project contract value close to $30,000,000.00.

5.2 EVALUATION CRITERIA

5.2.1. The Government will evaluate the extent that proposals demonstrate recent and relevant experience of the prime contractor and designer of record in design, construction, or design-build in accordance with their role on this project. If the design will be accomplished in- house, rather than by subcontract, then the design element of specialized experience will still be evaluated. Experience on the similar projects identified in the project lists will receive more consideration than experience provided in the supplemental narrative. Military Construction (MILCON) project experience will be rated more favorably than project experience not within military installations.

5.2.2. The Government reserves the right to verify the experience record of cited projects or other recent projects by reviewing the Corps of Engineers Construction Contractor (or Architect-Engineer) Appraisal Support System (CCASS/ACASS), including CPARS, reviewing other DOD or Government appraisal systems, or interviewing owners or references. The Government may check any or all cited references to verify supplied information.

5.2.3. To receive credit for extent (amount) of experience, the Offeror and its proposed design firm(s) shall demonstrate a history of recent, relevant experience. A firm will not receive additional credit for Specialized Experience for the relevant experience of key personnel proposed for this project.

5.2.4. The Government may give additional consideration to previous design-build experience, even if the experience is on different type projects. Similarly, the Government may give additional consideration to recent teaming experience among the team members, even if on different type design and/or construction projects than this project. Most consideration will be given to most relevant experience.

5.2.5. Additional consideration may be given if either the constructor or the design firm(s) demonstrate experience in sustainable design.

6.0 TAB C- FACTOR 2 - PAST PERFORMANCE

6.1 SUBMISSION REQUIREMENTS

6.1.1. In accordance with FAR 42.1503, past performance will be evaluated using the Past Performance Information Retrieval System (PPIRS) for the prime contractor and its Designer of Record firm. If any firm has multiple functions or divisions, limit the DUNS number to the division or unit submitting the offer and divisions providing substantial support to the design-build team. The Government reserves the right to verify the past performance record of other team members besides the prime contractor, and DOR and may evaluate their PPIRS - If no relevant past performance history is available for your DUNS number, you may choose to utilize the attached Customer Satisfaction Survey/ Past Performance Questionnaire (PPQ) (Attachment 4) which will be used for evaluation.
