BASIS OF AWARD AND EVALUATION FACTORS

A. BASIS FOR AWARD

1. 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 most advantageous to the Government, cost/price and other factors considered.

2. As stated in the solicitation, 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 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.

3. The tradeoff process is selected as appropriate for this acquisition. The Government considers it to be in its best interest to allow consideration of award to other than the lowest priced Offeror or other than the highest technically rated Offeror.

4. As stated in the solicitation, all technical factors when combined are of equal importance to the performance confidence assessment (past performance) rating; and all technical factors and the performance confidence assessment (past performance) rating, when combined are approximately equal to price.

5. Any proposal found to have a deficiency in meeting the stated solicitation requirements or performance objectives will be considered ineligible for award, unless the deficiency is 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.

B. EVALUATION FACTORS FOR AWARD

1. The solicitation requires the evaluation of price and the following non-price factors:

Factor 1 – Experience Factor 2 – Technical Solution Factor 3 – Small Business Utilization Factor 4 – Safety Factor 5 – Past Performance

The distinction between experience and past performance is that experience pertains to the volume of work completed by a contractor that are comparable to the types of work described under the definition of recent, relevant projects, 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.

The relative order of importance of the non-cost/price evaluation factors is the technical factors (Factors 1, 2, 3, and 4) are of 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 approximately equal to price.

The importance of price will increase if the Offerors’ non-cost/price proposals are considered essentially equal in terms of overall quality, or if price is so high as to significantly diminish the value of a non-cost/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.

3. Basis of Evaluation and Submittal Requirements for Each Factor.

(a) Non-price Factors:

(1) Factor 1 – Experience

(i) Solicitation Submittal Requirements:

1. The Offeror shall submit the following information: A minimum of two

(2) and a maximum of five (5) construction projects for the Offeror that best demonstrates your experience on recent and relevant projects that are similar in size, scope, and complexity to the RFP. A relevant and recent project is further defined as a project completed within the past ten (10) years from the date of issuance of the RFP and demonstrates the following size and scope elements:

a. Pier Projects: Construction of steel pipe pile supported piers with a minimum project cost of $10,000,000 and 2,000 square feet of pier deck area.

b. Facility Projects: Construction of industrial shop maintenance space with a minimum project cost of $5,000,000 and 2,000 square feet of shop space.

Additional Construction Experience Submittal Requirements

a. 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 for evaluation; rather Offerors shall submit the work performed under a task order as a project.

b. The attached Construction Experience Project Data Sheet (Attachment C) 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 one (2) double-sided page (or two (4) single-sided pages).

c. 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 (e.g., unique features, area, construction methods).

d. If the Offeror is a joint venture, partnership, or mentor protégé, relevant project experience should be submitted for projects completed by the joint venture, partnership, or mentor protégé entity. If the joint venture, partnership, or mentor protégé does not have shared experience, projects may be submitted for the joint venture, partnership, or mentor protégé members. At least one relevant project shall be submitted for each joint venture, partnership or mentor protégé member. Offerors who fail to submit experience for all joint venture, partnership, or mentor protégé members may be rated lower. Offerors are still limited to a total of five (5) projects combined.

e. A minimum of one project must be submitted by the Offeror (matching the company name, address, and/or DUNS number on the SF1442 and/or Cover Letter, or otherwise demonstrating how the experience is attributable to the offeror itself).

f. If the Offeror is utilizing experience information of any other entity (name/address/DUNS is not exactly as stated on the SF1442 and/or cover letter), the proposal shall clearly demonstrate that the other entity will have meaningful involvement in the performance of the contract. The proposal shall establish a nexus or connection between itself and the entity and state specific commitments of technical resources (personnel or equipment) from the entity that will be utilized in performance of this contract. This information shall be included in box 10 of Attachment C.

g. In addition, the Offeror shall submit a signed copy of a joint venture agreement, partnership agreement, or approved mentor protégé agreement (MPA) for each member of the Offeror’s team for which experience is being utilized under Factor 1, Experience (e.g. joint venture member, partner, team member, subcontractor, parent company, subsidiary, or other affiliated company, etc.).

(ii) 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. Any projects submitted in excess of the five (5) will not be considered.

Every project shall meet the corresponding size criteria to be relevant (e.g. credit for scope element #1 will only be given if the corresponding size for scope element #1 is met). At least one project must address the Pier scope elements and one project must address the Facility scope elements. Failure to meet the stated criteria will result in a lower rating.

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

Higher ratings may be given if all relevant scope elements (both Pier and Facility) are demonstrated in a single project.

Higher ratings may be given if the Offeror demonstrates experience driving 36 inch diameter or greater steel pipe piles that support foundations in a marine environment.

Higher ratings may be given if the Offeror demonstrates experience driving piles of 120 feet or greater in length.

Failure to comply with the Attachment C requirements may result in the project being considered not relevant and may result in a lower rating.

(2) Factor 2 – Technical Solution

(i)Solicitation Submittal Requirements:

Provide a narrative based on the requirements in the plans and specifications that describe the Offeror’s ability to ensure a completion of the project within 785 calendar days from contract award. Narrative shall not exceed five (5) double sided pages or (10) single sided pages, and shall be no smaller than 11 pitch font in 8 ½” x 11” format. The submission shall be in narrative form only. Gantt Charts, Critical Path Method (CPM) schedules, etc. are not desired and will not be evaluated. The narrative shall address the following:

1. Schedule:

a. Anticipated overall construction duration (clearly identify number of days)

b. Anticipated sequence of construction

c. Anticipated critical path and critical path mitigation means

d. Long lead items and plan to mitigate resulting schedule impacts

e. Anticipated security restrictions and resulting delays

f. Weather delays and use of project calendars

2. Technical Approach:

a. Approach to manufacturing process, delivery, staging, and installation procedure for steel pipe piles

b. Proposed delivery method of piles

c. Approach to environmental requirements for Marbled Murrelet and marine mammal monitoring requirements

Evaluation of this factor will be a subjective assessment of the Offeror’s approach to accomplishing the project’s goals and requirements, and completing the project within the required timeframe to determine if it is realistic and demonstrates the ability to properly accomplish the requirements of the project. Failure to address any of the submission requirements may result in lower ratings. Restating the RFP requirements may result in lower ratings.

Higher ratings may be given for proposing a realistic period of performance that is less than the required 785 calendar days from contract award.

Higher ratings may be given for demonstrating proactive measures that can be taken to prevent critical delays to critical path work activities.

(3) Factor 3, Small Business Utilization

This factor assesses both historical achievements in utilizing small business concerns as subcontractors and proposed small business participation and commitment strategies.

(i)Solicitation Submittal Requirements:

1. Achievements: All Offerors shall provide a narrative (limited to two pages, two (2) double-sided pages) to describe their achievements in supporting the Government’s policy to provide maximum practicable opportunities for small business (SB), veteran-owned small business (VOSB), service-disabled veteran-owned small business (SDVOSB), historically underutilized business zone (HUBZone) small business, small disadvantaged business (SDB), and women-owned small business (WOSB) concerns to participate as subcontractors consistent with efficient contract performance. In support of narrative submissions:

a. All Offerors shall submit small business subcontracting information associated with each project cited under the Corporate Experience Factor in the format provided in Attachment F, Small Business Subcontracting Record.

b. Offerors representing as other than small businesses shall also provide copies of the most current individual subcontracting reports (ISRs) associated with each project cited under the Experience Factor if a small business subcontracting plan was required by the contract. If such projects were completed under specific task orders, provide ISRs for the overall contract. For cited projects with state and local government agencies, provide similar subcontracting performance reports if required by the contracts. When not specifically addressed in the ISR or similar report, Offerors shall provide explanations for all instances of failures to meet dollar or percentage goals in individual subcontracting plans.

Notes: The Government reserves the right to consider achievements information on other recent, relevant projects from all available sources.

Offerors utilizing achievements information of team members or key subcontractors shall clearly demonstrate how these companies will have meaningful involvement in the management of the subcontracting program for this acquisition. If not, such achievement information will not be considered under this factor. If the Offeror is a new joint venture, partnership or other entity consisting of more than one company, provide achievements information for each individual business entity(ies) that will be responsible for managing the subcontracting program and clearly describe those responsibilities.

Failures to provide ISRs or any other requested information must be fully explained and may negatively impact your evaluation.

2. Small Business Participation and Commitment: All Offerors shall submit a small business participation and commitment strategy including all data elements shown in Attachment G, Small Business Participation and Commitment Strategy.

a. Identify in terms of dollar value and percentage of the total acquisition the extent of work the Offeror will self-perform as the prime contractor. If submitting an offer as a joint venture, identify the percentage of work each member will be responsible for and indicate the size status of each member (e.g. small business, woman-owned small business, other than small business).

b. Include supplemental narratives (limited to five (5) single-sided pages) to address other elements of the Offeror’s strategy such as binding agreements covering post award roles for execution of the contract and specific initiatives and tools that will be employed under the contract to enhance small businesses opportunities to both participate in this acquisition and build capabilities to support future NAVFAC acquisitions.

c. The anticipated prime and first tier overall small business participation rate for this acquisition (i.e. work to be performed by small businesses as the prime and/or subcontractors) is 20% of the contract value. Offerors are encouraged to exceed this percentage and seek meaningful levels of participation in each of the small business socioeconomic programs listed in Attachment G consistent with efficient contract performance. Offerors shall explain in their participation and commitment strategies how proposed participation rates were established. The small business participation and commitment strategy must be in agreement with any required small business subcontracting plan and will be made a part of the contract upon award.

Note: The small business participation and commitment strategies evaluated under this factor do not replace small business subcontracting plans. Offerors representing as other than small businesses must submit acceptable small business subcontracting plans using RFP Section 00100, Attachment B as a template in order to be eligible for award (FAR 19.702(a)(1)). See the SMALL BUSINESS SUBCONTRACTING PLAN section of INSTRUCTIONS TO OFFERORS for subcontracting plan submission requirements.

Offerors will be evaluated on the extent to which their proposals and other performance information available to the Government demonstrate a history of successfully supporting Government policies concerning utilization of small business concerns as subcontractors including, when applicable, achievements against established small business subcontracting plan goals. Offerors will also be evaluated on the levels of small business participation proposed and the degree of commitment to use named sources. The anticipated benefits of proposed initiatives and tools to enhance small business participation and capabilities will be considered. The Government will assess proposal realism and the likelihood of success in achieving the small business objectives of this acquisition.

Forms to be used for Offeror submission of Small Business Utilization Factor information are:

Attachment F – Small Business Subcontracting Record Attachment G – Small Business Participation and Commitment Strategy

(4) Factor 4 – Safety

(i) Solicitation Submittal Requirements: The Offeror shall submit the Past Performance Worksheet for Safety (Attachment E). The following data shall be completed on, or attached to the worksheet: (For a partnership or joint venture, the following submittal requirements are required for each contractor who is part of the partnership or joint venture;

however, only one safety narrative is required. EMR, TRC and DART Rates shall not be submitted for subcontractors.)

1. Experience Modification Rate (EMR): Include five previous complete calendar years’ worth of data [2019, 2018, 2017, 2016, 2015]. This rate compares company’s annual losses in insurance claims against its policy premiums. The Offeror may submit an insurance company-provided equivalent rate if no EMR exists. If there is no EMR premium, for any year, affirmatively state so and explain why. Any extenuating circumstances that affect the EMR and negative trends should be addressed as part of the element.

2. Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) Days Away from Work, Restricted Duty, or Job Transfer (DART) and Total Recordable Case (TRC) rates; submit five previous complete calendar years’ worth of data [2019, 2018, 2017, 2016, 2015]. If the OSHA DART and TRC rates cannot be submitted, affirmatively state so and explain why. Any extenuating circumstances that affected the OSHA DART and TRC rate data negatively should be addressed as part of this element.

3. Technical Approach for Safety should describe the plan for safety that will be implemented to evaluate safety performance of potential subcontractors as part of the selection process for all levels of subcontractors. Fully describe the safety management system that will be used to oversee safety compliance and performance of self-performed and sub-contractor performed work. Also describe any innovative methods that the Offeror will employ to ensure and monitor safe work practices at self-performed and all subcontractor levels.

Additionally, describe the methodology to execute an effective program that facilitates sound mishap prevention techniques and processes, employee reporting of unsafe conditions, unsafe activities, and near-miss mishaps. The technical approach to safety narrative shall be limited to one (1) double sided page or two (2) single sided pages.

The Government is seeking to determine that the Offeror has consistently demonstrated a commitment to safety and that the Offeror plans to properly manage and implement safety procedures for its self-performed work and the work of its sub-contractors. The Government will evaluate the Offeror’s overall safety management system, safety performance record, and the Offeror’s methodology of qualifying, evaluating, selecting and overseeing its subcontractors. The Government’s sources of information for evaluating safety will include, but are not limited to:

OSHA, NAVFAC’s Enterprise Safety Applications Management System (ESAMS) database, NAVFAC’s Contractor Incident Reporting System (CIRS), Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS), and other related databases. While the Government may elect to consider data from other sources, the burden of providing detailed, current, accurate and complete safety information regarding these submittal requirements rests with the Offeror. The Government will evaluate the narrative to determine the degree to which subcontractor safety performance will be considered in the selection of all levels of subcontractors on the upcoming project and the specific management practices that will be in place for providing deliberate safety program management and mishap prevention support.

The evaluation will collectively consider the following:

- Experience Modification Rate (EMR)

- OSHA Days Away from Work, Restricted Duty, or Job Transfer (DART) and Total

- Recordable Case (TRC) Rates

- Offeror Technical Approach to Safety

- Other sources of information available to the Government

1. Experience Modification Rate (EMR): For the five (5) previous complete calendar years the Offeror will submit EMR. If no EMR exists, the Offeror may submit an insurance company-provided equivalent rate explaining why not. If an insurance company-provided equivalent rate is provided, it will be treated the same as an EMR. Any extenuating circumstances that affected the EMR and negative trends should be addressed as part of this selection factor. The board will evaluate the EMR to determine if the Offeror has demonstrated a history of safe work practices taking into account any negative trends and extenuating circumstances that impact the rating.

Offeror’s Experience Modification Rates (EMR) will be evaluated against the following Navy standards:

Risk EMR Rate Very Low Risk Less than 0.6 Low Risk From 0.6 to less than 0.8 Moderate Risk From 0.8 to 1.0 High Risk Greater than 1.0 to 1.1 Extremely High Risk Greater than 1.1

2.

If unable to submit OSHA DART and TRC rates, affirmatively state so, and an explanation must be provided. Any extenuating circumstances that affected the OSHA DART and TRC rate data and negative trends should be addressed as part of this element. The board will evaluate the OSHA DART and TRC rates to determine if the Offeror has demonstrated a history of safe work practices taking into account any upward trends and extenuating circumstances that impact rates.

3. Technical Approach to Safety: The Offeror will describe their plan to evaluate their safety performance and that of potential subcontractors. Also, describe any innovative methods that the Offeror will employ to ensure and monitor safe work practices at all subcontractor levels. The Safety Narrative shall be limited to two pages. The board will evaluate the narrative to determine the degree to which subcontractor safety performance will be considered in the selection of all levels of subcontractors on the upcoming project. The board will evaluate the narrative to determine the degree to which innovations are being proposed that may enhance safety on this procurement and validate the contractor has addressed methodology to be used in the execution of an effective program that facilitates sound mishap prevention techniques/processes, employee reporting of unsafe conditions, unsafe activities, and near-miss mishaps. Those Offerors whose plan demonstrates a commitment to hire subcontractors with a culture of safety and who propose innovative methods to enhance a safe working environment may be given greater weight in the evaluation.

4. Other Sources of Information Available to the Government: Other sources for safety may include but are not limited to OSHA data, NAVFAC’s Contractor Incident Reporting System (CIRS) in Enterprise Safety Applications Management System (ESAMS), Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS) and other related databases.

(5) Factor 5 – Past Performance

IF A COMPLETED CONSTRUCTION CONTRACTOR APPRAISAL SYSTEM (CCASS) or

CONTRACTOR PERFORMANCE ASSESSMENT REPORTING SYSTEM (CPARS)

EVALUATION IS AVAILABLE, IT SHALL BE SUBMITTED WITH THE PROPOSAL FOR EACH

PROJECT INCLUDED IN FACTOR 1 FOR CONSTRUCTION EXPERIENCE. IF THERE IS NOT

A COMPLETED CCASS OR CPARS EVALUATION, the Past Performance Questionnaire (PPQ) included in the solicitation is provided for the Offeror or its team members to submit to the client for each project the Offeror includes in its proposal for Factor 5 Past Performance. AN OFFEROR SHALL NOT SUBMIT A PPQ WHEN A COMPLETED CCASS or CPARS IS

AVAILABLE.

IF A CCASS OR CPARS EVALUATION IS NOT AVAILABLE, ensure correct phone numbers and email addresses are provided for the client point of contact. Completed PPQs should be submitted with your proposal. If the Offeror is unable to obtain a completed PPQ from a client for a project(s) before proposal closing date, the Offeror should complete and submit with the proposal the first page of the PPQ (Attachment D), which will provide contract and client information for the respective project(s). The Government may make reasonable attempts to contact the client noted for that project(s) to obtain the PPQ information; however, Offerors should follow-up with clients/references to ensure timely submittal of questionnaires. If the client requests, questionnaires may be submitted directly to the Government's point of contact, Grace Montero, via email at Grace.Montero@navy.mil prior to proposal closing date. Offerors shall not incorporate by reference into their proposal

PPQs, CCASS, or CPARS previously submitted for other RFPs. However, this does not preclude the Government from utilizing previously submitted PPQ information in the past performance evaluation.

Offerors may provide any information on problems encountered and the corrective actions taken on projects submitted under Factor 1 – Experience. Offerors may also address any adverse past performance issues. Explanations shall not exceed two (2) double-sided pages or four (4) single-sided pages in total.

The Government reserves the right to contact references for verification or additional information.

The Government’s inability to contact any of the Offeror’s references or the references unwillingness to provide the information requested may affect the Government’s evaluation of this factor.

While the Government may elect to consider data from other sources, the burden of providing detailed, current, accurate and complete past performance information rests with the Offeror.

A copy of the blank Past Performance Questionnaire to be used for requesting client references is included as Attachment D.

(ii) Basis of Evaluation: The degree to which past performance evaluations and all other past performance information reviewed by the Government (e.g., CPARS, Federal Awardee Performance and Integrity Information System (FAPIIS), Electronic Subcontract Reporting System (eSRS), performance recognition documents, and information obtained from any other source) reflect a trend of satisfactory performance considering:

A pattern of successful completion of tasks;

A pattern of deliverables that are timely and of good quality;

A pattern of cooperativeness and teamwork with the Government at all levels (task managers, contracting officers, auditors, etc.); and

Recency of tasks performed that are identical to, similar to, or related to the task at hand.

This evaluation focuses on how well the Offeror performed on the relevant projects submitted under Factor 1 – Experience, and past performance on other projects currently documented in known sources. More emphasis will be placed on more relevant projects. In addition to the above, the Government reserves the right to obtain information for use in the evaluation of past performance from any and all sources including sources outside of the Government. Other sources may include, but are not limited to, past performance information retrieved through PPIRS using all CAGE/DUNS numbers of Contractors who are part of a partnership or joint venture identified in the Offeror’s proposal, inquiries of owner representative(s), and any other known sources not provided by the Offeror.

The Government will consider the currency and relevance of the information, the source of the information, context of the data, and general trends in the Contractor’s performance. This evaluation is separate and distinct from the Contracting Officer’s responsibility determination.

The assessment of the Offeror’s past performance will be used as a means of evaluating the Offeror’s probability to successfully meet the requirements of the RFP.

Offerors lacking relevant past performance history will not be evaluated favorably or unfavorably in past performance and will receive a Neutral Confidence rating.
