A12. Evaluation: The Government intends to award a contract resulting from this solicitation to the responsible offeror with the lowest priced technically acceptable (LPTA) proposal based on the evaluation factors in this solicitation. See FAR Clause 52.232-18.

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 lowest priced, technically acceptable offer.

2. 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. In order to permit efficient competition, the following methodology will be utilized. Proposals will initially be screened for price and placed in order of price (lowest price to highest price). The Government will then evaluate the technical factors of the three (3) lowest priced proposals in accordance with the criteria for acceptability set forth in the solicitation. However, the Government, at its sole discretion, reserves the right to increase the number of proposals it will review under this methodology. If one (1) of the proposals is found to be technically acceptable, the Government will make award to the offeror with the lowest price. If not, groups of three (3) proposals will continue to be evaluated in the order of lowest price to highest price until an offer is found to be technically acceptable. Accordingly, under this methodology, the technical factors of some proposals may not be evaluated by the Navy. If discussions are deemed necessary by the Contracting Officer, all proposals will be evaluated (both technical and price) for the purposed of establishing a competitive range.

4. An overall non-price factors rating must be at least “ACCEPTABLE” in order to be eligible for award.

An “UNACCEPTABLE” rating in any factor results in the overall non-price factors proposal being rated

“UNACCEPTABLE” unless corrected through discussions. An overall non-price factors rating of “UNACCEPTABLE” makes a proposal ineligible for award.

EVALUATION FACTORS FOR AWARD

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

Factor 1 – Technical Experience Factor 2 – Safety Factor 3 – Past Performance

The distinction between technical experience and past performance is technical experience pertains to the types of work and volume of work completed by a contractor that are comparable to the types of work covered by this requirement, 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.

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

(a) Price

(1) Solicitation Submittal Requirements: The offeror shall complete prices for the contract line item number (CLIN) of the solicitation utilizing the “Solicitation, Supplies/Services Section.

(2) Basis of Evaluation: The Government will evaluate price based on the total price. Total price consists of all the requirements services. Analysis will be performed by one or more of the following techniques to ensure a fair and reasonable price:

(i) Comparison of proposed prices received in response to the RFQ.

(ii) Comparison of proposed prices with the IGCE.

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

(iv) Comparison of market survey results.

(b) Technical Factors:

(1) Factor 1, Technical Experience:

Solicitation Submittal Requirements: The offeror shall complete the NAVFAC Past Performance Questionnaire, which is provided as Attachment J-0200000-08. Technical experience will be evaluated based on the information provided in blocks 1-4 on the first page of the NAVFAC Past Performance Questionnaire. The offeror shall provide information on Attachment J-0200000-07 on two (2) relevant projects within the past five (5) years from the date of receipt of proposals, which demonstrate relevant experience similar to the size and scope of the solicitation, for which the offeror has experience performing as the prime contractor or the sub-contractor.

Basis of Evaluation: An offer will be rated “Acceptable” if the technical experience submittal meets the solicitation requirements and demonstrates experience on two (2) relevant projects within the past 5 years from the date of receipt of proposals, performing as a prime contractor or the sub-contractor.

(2) Factor 2, Safety:

Solicitation Submittal Requirements: The offeror shall submit the following information:

(a) The Offeror shall submit the following information: The Days Away from Work, Restricted Duty, or Job Transfer (DART) Rate; and Total Case Rate (TCR) for the specified five (5) Calendar Years (CY), as well as a safety narrative, as described further below. Any fatalities experienced within this 5-year timeframe must be explained in detail, to include root cause and corrective actions.

Basis of Evaluation: 1. DART Rate: Submit five (5) previous complete calendar years’ [CY2016, CY2017, CY2018, CY2019, and CY2020] worth of data (not an overall average). If the Offeror has no DART rate, for any year, affirmatively state so and explain why.

a. DART cases include injuries or illnesses resulting in death, days away from work, and/or restricted work or transfer to another job days beyond the day of injury/illness.

b. Calculation of DART rate: Multiply the total number of DART cases by 200,000, and then divide by the number of employee labor hours worked.

(3) Factor 3, Past Performance:

Solicitation Submittal Requirements:

If a completed CPARS evaluation is available for the projects listed under Factor 1, Technical Experience, it shall be submitted with the proposal. If there is not a completed CPARS evaluation, the Past Performance Questionnaire (PPQ) included in the solicitation is provided for offeror to submit to the client for each project the offeror includes in its proposal for Factor 1, Technical Experience.

If a CPARS evaluation is not available; a completed PPQs should be submitted with your proposal. 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, Dana Seamon at dana.l.seamon.civ@us.navy.mil or Regenia D. Guest at Regenia.d.guest.civ@us.navy.mil prior to proposal closing date. Offerors shall not incorporate by reference into their proposal PPQs or CPARS previously submitted for other RFPs. However, this does not preclude the Government from utilizing previously submitted PPQ information in the past performance.

Informational Notes as used throughout this PWS provides additional information to offerors to be used in developing a thorough understanding of the work to be performed in this contract. Any block of text marked “Informational Notes” throughout Annexes 1 through 18 is subject to this disclaimer. Offerors may not rely upon the "Informational Notes" as material representations of the Government. Information provided in "Informational Notes" does not create a contractual requirement on either party to this contract.

Clarifying Information describes client expectations in a more detailed manner than the Performance Objective and Performance standard alone.

Constraining Information describes limitations to the work performed to meet the Performance Objective and Performance Standard.

Requirement Information further describes client requirements associated with each Performance Objective.

1.8 Navy Approach to

Service Contracting

The Department of Navy (DoN) spends over $1 billion in annual obligations to meet global requirements for facility operations and maintenance provided through Facility Support Contracts (FSC) and additional billions to provide other base operations support services (OBOS). The Head of the Contracting Activity (HCA) of the Naval Facilities Engineering Command (NAVFAC) has focused increased attention on re-engineering FSC contracts in response to customer and industry feedback, budget constraints, and the impact of a variety of contracting, program management and financial management regulations.

The Navy also supports the following principles:

1.8.1 Partnering Philosophy The first principle is that the Navy views its contractors as partners and not just abstract service providers. The Navy wants its contractors to succeed because partners' success drives the Navy's successful mission completion.

Within the bounds of acquisition policy the Navy intends to work to find solutions that will be beneficial to both the Government and its partners.

1.8.2 Contractor's Knowledge The second principle is that the Navy will receive insightful management from its contractors. This management will include the knowledge, skills, authority and willingness to use contractor resources to find better ways of serving Navy clients’ strategic and operational goals and objectives. The Navy's use of performance-based objectives evidences this principle.

Although performance work statements will typically contain several levels of performance assessment, the Navy wants its contractors to exercise maximum discretion within bounds of prudent risk management to adjust processes and resources needed to reach specified objectives at the highest performance level.

1.8.3 Industry Best Practices The third principle is that the Navy will adopt industry best commercial practices and maintain state-of-the-art service delivery. To that end, the Navy's emphasis will be in evaluating performance objectives (end results).

1.9 Standard Template Key to implementing a programmatic approach is using a standard template that ensures Navy-wide consistency yet affords appropriate tailoring to meet local needs. This contract conforms to the standard template and has been tailored for this solicitation. NAVFAC intends to use this template-based approach for future service contracts. Offerors should develop an understanding of the template as part of performing due diligence in reaching an understanding of the Navy’s requirements and expectations.

The standard template contains 18 standard annexes. Annex 1 will always contain information that is relevant to the entire scope of the contract.

Annex 2 contains on-site project management and administration requirements that are relevant to the entire scope of the contract. Annexes 3 through 18 contain the technical information and requirements peculiar to that technical annex. Within each technical annex, the organization of information and requirements are also standardized. Specification Item 1 will always contain General Information. Specification Item 2 will always contain the management and administrative requirements. Specification Item 3 will always contain the Recurring Work requirements. Specification Item 4 will always contain the Non-Recurring Work requirements.

Requirements and standards for higher level specification items apply to all subordinate specification items, e.g., Specification Item 3 standards apply to all recurring work specification items. Specification Item 3.1 is applicable to all 3.1 subordinate specification items. Specification Items

3.2 and 3.3 are not considered subordinate to 3.1. All costs associated with Annexes 1 and 2 and Specification Items 1 and 2 must be priced and their price must be allocated across the Exhibit Line Items.

1.10 Navy PBSA Approach The Navy’s approach to performance-based service acquisition (PBSA) includes four component parts which are 1) performance outcomes, 2) measurable standards, 3) consideration of incentives, and 4) performance assessment plan.

1.11 Technical Proposal

The Contractor warrants that its proposal incorporated herein by reference will meet or exceed the performance objectives set forth in this contract.
