Buy American-Construction Materials (Feb 2026) (Deviation 2026-O0038)

(a) . As used in this clause-Definitions

Commercially available off-the-shelf (COTS) item-

(1) Means any item of supply (including construction material) that is-

(i) A commercial product (as defined in paragraph (1) of the definition of "commercial product" at Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 2.101);

(ii) Sold in substantial quantities in the commercial marketplace; and

(iii) Offered to the Government, under a contract or subcontract at any tier, without modification, in the same form in which it is sold in the commercial marketplace; and

(2) Does not include bulk cargo, as defined in 46 U.S.C. 40102(4), such as agricultural products and petroleum products.

"Construction material" means an article, material, or supply brought to the construction site by the Contractor or a subcontractor for incorporation into the building or work. The term also includes an item brought to the site preassembled from articles, materials, or supplies.

However, emergency life safety systems, such as emergency lighting, fire alarm, and audio evacuation systems, that are discrete systems incorporated into a public building or work and that are produced as complete systems, are evaluated as a single and distinct construction material regardless of when or how the individual parts or components of those systems are delivered to the construction site. Materials purchased directly by the Government are supplies, not construction material.

Cost of components means-

(1) For components purchased by the Contractor, the acquisition cost, including transportation costs to the place of incorporation into the construction material (whether or not such costs are paid to a domestic firm), and any applicable duty (whether or not a duty-free entry certificate is issued); or

(2) For components manufactured by the Contractor, all costs associated with the manufacture of the component, including transportation costs as described in paragraph (1) of this definition, plus allocable overhead costs, but excluding profit. Cost of components does not include any costs associated with the manufacture of the construction material.

Critical component means a component that is mined, produced, or manufactured in the United States and deemed critical to the U.S. supply chain. The list of critical components is at FAR 25.105.

Critical item means a domestic construction material or domestic end product that is deemed critical to U.S. supply chain resiliency. The list of critical items is at FAR 25.105.

Domestic construction material means-

(1) For construction material that does not consist wholly or predominantly of iron or steel or a combination of both-

(i) An unmanufactured construction material mined or produced in the United States; or

(ii) A construction material manufactured in the United States, if-

(A) The cost of its components mined, produced, or manufactured in the United States exceeds 60 percent of the cost of all its components, except that the percentage will be 65 percent for items delivered in calendar years 2024 through 2028 and 75 percent for items delivered starting in calendar year 2029. Components of foreign origin of the same class or kind for which nonavailability determinations have been made are treated as domestic. Components of unknown origin are treated as foreign; or

(B) The construction material is a COTS item; or

(2) For construction material that consists wholly or predominantly of iron or steel or a combination of both, a construction material manufactured in the United States if the cost of foreign iron and steel constitutes less than 5 percent of the cost of all components used in such construction material. The cost of foreign iron and steel includes but is not limited to the cost of foreign iron or steel mill products (such as bar, billet, slab, wire, plate, or sheet), castings, or forgings utilized in the manufacture of the construction material and a good faith estimate of the cost of all foreign iron or steel components excluding COTS fasteners. Iron or steel components of unknown origin are treated as foreign. If the construction material contains multiple components, the cost of all the materials used in such construction material is calculated in accordance with the definition of "cost of components".

Fastener means a hardware device that mechanically joins or affixes two or more objects together. Examples of fasteners are nuts, bolts, pins, rivets, nails, clips, and screws.

Foreign construction material means a construction material other than a domestic construction material.

Foreign iron and steel means iron or steel products not produced in the United States.

Produced in the United States means that all manufacturing processes of the iron or steel must take place in the United States, from the initial melting stage through the application of coatings, except metallurgical processes involving refinement of steel additives. The origin of the elements of the iron or steel is not relevant to the determination of whether it is domestic or foreign.

Predominantly of iron or steel or a combination of both means that the cost of the iron and steel content exceeds 50 percent of the total cost of all its components. The cost of iron and steel is the cost of the iron or steel mill products (such as bar, billet, slab, wire, plate, or sheet), castings, or forgings utilized in the manufacture of the product and a good faith estimate of the cost of iron or steel components excluding COTS fasteners.

Steel means an alloy that includes at least 50 percent iron, between 0.02 and 2 percent carbon, and may include other elements.

"United States" means the 50 States, the District of Columbia, and outlying areas.

(b) Domestic preference.

(1) This clause implements 41 U.S.C. chapter 83, Buy American, by providing a preference for domestic construction material. In accordance with 41 U.S.C. 1907, the domestic content test of the Buy American statute is waived for construction material that is a COTS item, except that for construction material that consists wholly or predominantly of iron or steel or a combination of both, the domestic content test is applied only to the iron and steel content of the construction materials, excluding COTS fasteners. The Contractor shall use only domestic construction material in performing this contract, except as provided in paragraphs (b)(2) and (b)(3) of this clause.

(2) The Contracting Officer may add other foreign construction material to the list in paragraph (b)(2) of this clause if the Government determines that-

(i) The cost of domestic construction material would be unreasonable.

(A) For domestic construction material that is not a critical item or does not contain critical .components

(1) The cost of a particular domestic construction material subject to the requirements of the Buy American statute is unreasonable when the cost of such material exceeds the cost of foreign material by more than 20 percent;

(2) For construction material that is not a COTS item and does not consist wholly or predominantly of iron or steel or a combination of both, if the cost of a particular domestic construction material is determined to be unreasonable or there is no domestic offer received, and the low offer is for foreign construction material that is manufactured in the United States and does not exceed 55 percent domestic content, the Contracting Officer will treat the lowest offer of foreign construction material that exceeds 55 percent domestic content as a domestic offer and determine whether the cost of that offer is unreasonable by applying the evaluation factor listed in paragraph (b)(3)(i)(A) of this clause.(1)

(3) The procedures in paragraph (b)(3)(i)(A) of this clause will no longer apply as of January (2) 1, 2030.

(B) .For domestic construction material that is a critical item or contains critical components

(1) The cost of a particular domestic construction material that is a critical item or contains critical components, subject to the requirements of the Buy American statute, is unreasonable when the cost of such material exceeds the cost of foreign material by more than 20 percent plus the additional preference factor identified for the critical item or construction material containing critical components listed at FAR 25.105.

(2) For construction material that does not consist wholly or predominantly of iron or steel or a combination of both, if the cost of a particular domestic construction material is determined to be unreasonable or there is no domestic offer received, and the low offer is for foreign construction material that does not exceed 55 percent domestic content, the Contracting Officer will treat the lowest foreign offer of construction material that is manufactured in the United States and exceeds 55 percent domestic content as a domestic offer, and determine whether the cost of that offer is unreasonable by applying the evaluation factor listed in paragraph (b)(3) (i)(B) of this clause.(1)

(3) The procedures in paragraph (b)(3)(i)(B) of this clause will no longer apply as of January (2) 1, 2030.

(ii) The application of the restriction of the Buy American statute to a particular construction material would be impracticable or inconsistent with the public interest; or

(iii) The construction material is not mined, produced, or manufactured in the United States in sufficient and reasonably available commercial quantities of a satisfactory quality.

(c) Request for determination of inapplicability of the Buy American statute.

(1)

(i) Any Contractor request to use foreign construction material in accordance with paragraph (b)

(B) Unit of measure;

(C) Quantity;

(D) Price;

(E) Time of delivery or availability;

(F) Location of the construction project;

(G) Name and address of the proposed supplier; and

If the Contractor does not submit a satisfactory explanation, the Contracting Officer need not make a determination.

(2) If the Government determines after contract award that an exception to the Buy American statute applies and the Contracting Officer and the Contractor negotiate adequate consideration, the Contracting Officer will modify the contract to allow use of the foreign construction material. However, when the basis for the exception is the unreasonable price of a domestic construction material, adequate consideration is not less than the differential established in paragraph (b)(3)(i) of this clause.

(3) Unless the Government determines that an exception to the Buy American statute applies, use of foreign construction material is noncompliant with the Buy American statute or Balance of Payments Program.

(d) . To permit evaluation of requests under paragraph (c) of this clause based on Data unreasonable cost, the Contractor shall include the following information and any applicable supporting data based on the survey of suppliers:

Foreign and Domestic Construction Materials Price Comparison

Section M - Evaluation Factors for Award

A. Basis for Award

Award Without Discussions: The Government intends to evaluate quotes and award a contract without conducting discussions with Offerors. Therefore, the Offeror's initial quotation must contain the best terms from both a technical and price standpoint. However, the Government reserves the right to conduct discussions or clarifications if the Contracting Officer determines them to be in the best interest of the Government.

Evaluation Process: The Government will evaluate quotes using the following:

Completion & Accuracy Check (Complete and Accurate / Incomplete) Factor 1 (Price) Evaluation (Lowest Evaluated Price) Factor 2 (Technical Acceptability) Evaluation (Acceptable / Unacceptable) Factor 3 (Past Performance) Evaluation (Acceptable / Unacceptable)

B. Evaluation Factors

Prior to technical and financial evaluations, the Government will conduct an initial Completion and Accuracy Check of all quotes received.

Complete and Accurate: The quote contains all three (3) required volumes, uses the correct formats (Searchable PDF for narratives; MS Excel for pricing), and includes a signed, dated, and fully completed SF-1449 with Blocks 17a, 19-24, 30a, 30b, and 30c completed without exceptions or pricing discrepancies. Additionally, the Offeror is actively certified by the SBA as a Small Business at the time of quote submission.

Incomplete: The quote is missing required volumes, uses incorrect formats, contains discrepancies between the Excel pricing and the SF-1449 pricing, is submitted in Microsoft Word, or the Offeror is not actively SBA-certified as a Small Business.

Quotes receiving an "Incomplete" rating will immediately not be considered for award and will not proceed further in the evaluation process.

Factor 1: Price (Lowest Evaluated Price)

The Government will award a single, Firm-Fixed-Lowest Priced Technically Acceptable (LPTA):

Price contract resulting from this Request for Quotation (RFQ) to the responsible Offeror whose quote is technically acceptable, meets all administrative compliance requirements of the solicitation, and represents the lowest evaluated price.

Factor 2: Technical Acceptability

Subfactor 1A: Unpriced Staffing Plan This directly relates to SOW Section 3.3 (Personnel & Support), which requires the contractor to "provide all personnel, equipment, supplies, facilities, transportation, tools, materials, supervision, and other items and non-personal services necessary to perform operations." The evaluation will assess if the staffing plan demonstrates the ability to meet this requirement.

Subfactor 1B: List of Proposed Equipment SOW Section 2, Location A (System Upgrade Requirements): The plan must show equipment for replacing legacy control panels, new head-end equipment, enrollment workstations, and CAC-compatible readers.

SOW Section 2, Location B (Specific Equipment & Hardware List): The proposal must list equipment that matches or is equivalent to the specified items.

Subfactor 1C: Project Plan The plan will be evaluated against multiple SOW sections:

Section 2 (Scope of Work): The plan must address the distinct work at both BLDG X-4514 and BLDG C-1726, including the demolition and system integration at the latter.

Section 7 (Inspection & Government Acceptance): The plan should acknowledge the coordination notice requirement (notifying the COR two business days prior to starting work).

Section 6 (Clean-up & Post-Service Demilitarization): The plan must include steps for continuous and final removal of all trash and debris.

Section 4 (Project Schedule, Hours, & Performance Period): The plan's schedule must demonstrate completion within and adherence to the specified work hours (0800- 90 days 1700, Mon-Fri).

Section 3 (General Installation Requirements): The plan must include provisions for supplies, end-user training, and personnel support.

To receive an overall Acceptable rating for Factor 2 (Technical Capability), the Offeror must receive a rating of Acceptable in all technical subfactors. A rating of Unacceptable in any single subfactor will result in an overall technical rating of Unacceptable, rendering the entire proposal ineligible for award.

Factor 3: Past Performance (Acceptable / Unacceptable)

The Government will evaluate the past performance proposal (Volume III) to determine if the offeror has a history of relevant and successful performance. The Government may use information from government databases (like CPARS) in addition to the information provided by the offeror.

3.

4.

5.

6.

The Offeror shall submit a maximum of three (3) past performance references for projects completed within the last three (3) years (or currently ongoing) that are similar in scope to the requirements described in this Statement of Work.

For each referenced project, the offeror shall provide:

Project Title Contract / Task Order / Delivery Order # Total Contract Value (Dollar Amount) Period of Performance Detailed Scope Role of Offeror (Prime Contractor or Subcontractor)

An rating will be given for a lack of relevant past performance or a history of poor "Unacceptable" performance.
