2. BASIS FOR AWARD

2.1 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 the Government, price and other factors considered.to

2.2 The Government intends to evaluate proposals and award a contract without discussions with offerors (except clarifications as described in FAR 15.202(a)(2)) (DEVIATION 2026-O0048). The Government reserves the right to conduct discussions if the Contracting Officer later determines them to be necessary. If held, discussions will be conducted in accordance with 48 C.F.R. 15.306 (c)(d)) (DEVIATION 2026-O0048), as it reads on the date of Solicitation release. 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.

2.3 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 other than the highest technically rated offeror.or

2.4 The relative order of importance of the non-price evaluation factors is the technical factors (Factors 1, 2, 3, and 5) are of equal importance to each other and, when combined, are equal in importance to the past performance evaluation /performance confidence assessment factor (Factor 4).

When the proposal is evaluated as a whole, the technical factors and past performance/ performance confidence assessment factor combined (i.e., the non-cost/price evaluation factors) are approximately equal to price.

2.5 Any proposal found to have a deficiency in meeting the stated solicitation requirements or performance objectives will be considered ineligible award, unless the deficiency is corrected through discussions (if held). An Unacceptable rating in any of the non-cost/price factors will result in an for overall rating of "Unacceptable" for the non-cost/price factors, unless 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.

3. EVALUATION FACTORS FOR AWARD

3.1 The solicitation requires the evaluation of price and the following non-cost/price Factors:

Factor 1 - Corporate Experience

Factor 2 - Management Approach and Schedule

Factor 3 - Safety

Factor 4 - Past Performance

Factor 5 - Small Business Utilization and Participation

The distinction between corporate experience and past performance is corporate 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.

3.2. The relative order of importance of the non-price evaluation factors is the technical factors (Factors 1, 2, 3, and 5) are of equal importance to each other and, when combined, are equal in importance to the past performance evaluation/performance confidence assessment factor (Factor 4). When the proposal is evaluated as a whole, the technical factors and past performance/performance confidence assessment factor combined (i.e., the non-cost/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.

The proposal shall also describe specific roles of the affiliate/subsidiary/ parent/LLC/LTD member companies in terms of the work it will either self-perform or manage on behalf of the Offeror in performance of the contract. The Offeror MAY NOT utilize experience of a subcontractor to demonstrate construction experience under this evaluation factor. Failure to submit this information may result in a lower rating.

If an offeror submits a project where it was part of a JV (whether the offeror is a single entity or JV) as well as an affiliate, the offeror must meet either the requirements set forth above for JV or the requirements set forth for an affiliate for the project to be considered Relevant, in addition to meeting the Size, Scope, and Complexity requirements. If the offeror does not clearly demonstrate its role as a JV member or affiliate, the project will be considered Not Relevant.

(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 total. Any projects submitted in excess of five (5) for Corporate Experience will not be considered. The Government will review the first five projects if more are submitted. An Offeror that does not submit a minimum of one (1) relevant project as defined above will receive a rating of "Unacceptable." An Offeror with an "Unacceptable" rating in any Factor will not be eligible for award.

Proposals that do not demonstrate relevant project experience for each JV member may be considered less favorably.

Offerors with relevant projects that demonstrate compliance with a Construction Security Plan (CSP) may be considered more favorably.

Offerors that demonstrate relevant experience on multiple projects meeting the Complexity requirement may be considered more favorably.

Offerors that demonstrate experience with High Bay Construction may be considered more favorably.

Factor 2, Management Approach & Schedule:

(i) Solicitation Submittal Requirements:

The Offeror shall submit a narrative and schedule for this factor. The narrative shall not exceed six (6) pages, 8-1/2" x 11" size. Provide the schedule, documenting any multiple critical paths, in an Adobe PDF file. There is no page limit to the schedule.

Management Approach

Provide a written work plan that addresses major elements of work, project risks, and space planning and usage.

A management approach that provides a realistic and feasible strategy for communication with multiple on-site stakeholders (government, additional prime contractors, etc.) and de-confliction with other stakeholder requirements may be considered more favorable.

a) Narrative Work Plan -The work plan shall demonstrate understanding of the scope, all phases and major milestones, technical complexities, and construction schedule required to achieve the work as identified in the RFP. Identify activities that may affect the project timeline, including other/off site work activities. Identify key project risks including their likelihood and consequences, along with mitigation or management strategies to minimize or eliminate impacts to the project cost and schedule. The plan shall include, but is not limited to, the following technical complexities as detailed in the RFP:

-Undercut and temporary stockpiling of geotechnically unsuitable subgrade soils (including undercut shown on Sheet CD103) and replacement with imported Structural Fill material, complete in accordance with the drawings and specifications.

-Handling, temporary stockpiling, sampling, analysis, and disposal of non-hazardous contaminated surplus soil media (including but not limited to, PFAS, petroleum, asbestos, and metals) at a permitted licensed RCRA D facility that accepts PFAS impacted soil media or a RCRA C facility, if necessary, complete in accordance with the drawings and specifications.

-Handling, containerizing, testing, management (including operation and oversight), offsite treatment and disposal of contaminant impacted construction dewatering effluent (including but not limited to, PFAS, petroleum, and metals) at a permitted facility.

b) Space Planning and Usage - The Offeror shall provide a written plan identifying anticipated use of on-site options, methods for material and equipment storage both on and off site. Space use shall also provide plan for avoiding conflicts with other active construction projects in the project area.

Critical Path Schedule

The project schedule shall illustrate the Offeror's ability to achieve or improve on the contract completion date set out in the RFP. The total duration of the contract is 901 calendar days after award. Identify the overall completion time for this project, in accordance with the RFP, as well as interim completion times and key milestones for sequences as required to complete construction. The schedule shall demonstrate an understanding of the work to include the base CLIN and all options, a logical sequence of events to accomplish the work, and contain enough information to identify all of the major milestones, as defined in the phasing plans of the RFP. The schedule shall be based on a contract award date of 15 December 2026. This is for proposal purposes only and not dispositive of an anticipated/planned award date.

If an Offeror proposes a realistic and feasible schedule that is shorter than the required duration, and that Offeror is selected for award, that schedule and duration will be incorporated into the award document and replace the advertised required duration.

A schedule that proposes a contract duration longer than indicated in the RFP will be rated UNACCEPTABLE.

Offeror shall provide a critical path method (CPM) schedule for execution and completion of the work to achieve the required interim and final completion milestones for the project. At a minimum, the CPM schedule shall address the following:

- Identify major activities and milestones

- Provide sequencing (precedence/succession) of critical activities

- Demonstrate knowledge of project regulatory constraints

- Sufficiently detailed to identify critical and near-critical activities

(ii) Basis of Evaluation:

Management Approach - Offerors will be evaluated on the extent to which they demonstrate a clear understanding of the requirements of the RFP in accordance with the above Solicitation Submittal Requirements.

An Offeror's narrative work plan that identifies areas of risk in logistics and resource management provides a comprehensive contingency plan and that addresses mitigation of any identified risks with potential solutions may be considered more favorably than those that do not.

Schedule - Offerors will be evaluated on the extent to which they demonstrate a clear understanding of the requirements of the RFP.

A schedule that proposes a realistic and feasible contract duration shorter than the required duration indicated in the RFP may be considered more favorably than those that do not.

If the offeror's schedule does not match the offeror's narrative (i.e., differences in milestones, timelines, etc., the Government may consider the response to Factor 2 less favorably.

Factor 3 - Safety

(i) Solicitation Submittal Requirements:

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. For a partnership or joint venture, the Offeror shall submit separate DART rates and TCR for the specified five (5) CY for each contractor who is part of the partnership/joint venture;

however, only one safety narrative is required. Any fatalities experienced within this 5-year timeframe must be explained in detail, to include root cause and corrective actions.

NOTE: DART and TCR shall not be submitted for subcontractors

1. DART Rate: Submit five (5) previous complete calendar years' [CY2021, CY2022, CY2023, CY2024, CY2025] worth of data (not an overall average). If the Offeror has no DART rate, for any year, affirmatively state so and explain why. Should a negative trend occur above moderate risk levels, an acceptable/detailed explanation is required that includes any corrective actions taken for improvement.

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.

DART RATE = Number of DART Incidents x 200,000 / Total Number of Employee Labor Hours Worked

2. TCR Rate: Submit five (5) previous complete calendar years [CY2021, CY2022, CY2023, CY2024, CY2025] worth of data (not an overall average). If the Offeror has no TCR rate, for any year, affirmatively state so and explain why. Should a negative trend occur above moderate risk levels, an acceptable/detailed explanation is required that includes any corrective actions taken for improvement.

a. TCR cases include injuries or illnesses resulting in death, days away from work, restricted work or transfer to another job days beyond the day of injury/illness, medical treatment beyond first aid, or loss of consciousness.

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

TCR RATE = Number of TCR Incidents x 200,000 / Total Number of Employee Labor Hours Worked

3. Technical Approach to Safety: Submit a narrative that addresses the following:

a. Describe the Offeror' s approach to implementing and executing a Safety Management System (SMS) including Management /Leadership involvement, Employee involvement, Hazard prevention, Hazard control, Worksite analysis, and Safety and health training, to include the standard(s) used to benchmark the SMS.

b. Describe the evaluation of subcontractor's safety performance in the Offeror's selection process.

c. Describe the processes of how the Offeror will oversee safety compliance of subcontractors at all levels throughout performance of the contract (to include the Offeror's own in-house workforce).

d. The Technical Approach to Safety narrative shall be limited to two (2) pages.

4. The Government reserves the right to review other available sources (public/Government internal) of information. These may include but are not limited to OSHA data, NAVFAC's Contractor Incident Reporting System (CIRS), Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS), Electronic Contract Management System (eCMS), etc.

(ii) Basis of Evaluation:

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 itself and its subcontractors. The evaluation will collectively consider the DART rate, TCR rate, Technical Approach to Safety, and other sources of information available to the Government as part of such collective evaluation. The board will evaluate the DART rates and TCR rates 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.

1. DART Rate: The board will evaluate trends over the last five years considering changes that take it from one risk level (or more) to the next up or down. Negative trends occurring above moderate risk levels require the Offeror to provide a detailed explanation that includes any corrective actions taken for improvement.

a. Missing data without an explanation is considered a deficiency.

b. Declining trends that push the risk levels from Moderate Risk (MR) or higher to Low Risk (LR) or Very Low Risk (VLR) would indicate a strength.

c. An increasing DART rate trend could be considered a weakness (i.e. MR or better to High Risk (HR) or Extremely High Risk EHR)) if an acceptable explanation is not provided for any trends that rise above Moderate.

d. This chart correlates the DART rate to the level of risk:

Risk DART Rate

Very Low Risk Less Than 1.0

Low Risk From 1.0 to 1.99

Moderate Risk From 2.0 to 2.99

High Risk From 3.0 to 4.0

Extremely High Risk Greater than 4.0

2. TCR Rate: The board will evaluate trends over the last five years considering changes that take it from one risk level (or more) to the next up or down. Negative trends occurring above moderate risk levels require the Offeror to provide a detailed explanation that includes any corrective actions taken for improvement.

a. Missing data without an explanation is considered a deficiency.

b. Declining trends that push the risk levels from Moderate Risk (MR) or higher to Low Risk (LR) or Very Low Risk (VLR) would indicate a strength.

c. An increasing TCR rate trend could be considered a weakness (i.e. MR or better to High Risk (HR) or Extremely High Risk EHR)) if an acceptable explanation is not provided for any trends that rise above Moderate.

d. This chart correlates the TCR rate to the level of risk:

Risk DART Rate

Very Low Risk Less Than 2.49

Low Risk From 2.5 to 3.49

Moderate Risk From 3.5 to 4.49

High Risk From 4.5 to 5.99

Extremely High Risk Greater than 6.0

3. The Technical Approach to Safety Narrative. To determine the degree to which the Offeror:

a. Describes a viable SMS that addresses elements; such as Management/Leadership involvement, Employee involvement, Hazard prevention, Hazard control, Worksite analysis, and Safety and health training, to include the standard(s) used to benchmark the SMS.

b. Describes a methodical process of evaluating subcontractor's safety performance in their selection process.

c. Describes a logical management plan to hold themselves and their subcontractors accountable for adhering to the safety requirements of the contract.

d. The Technical Approach to Safety narrative shall be limited to two (2) single-sided pages. Information on pages beyond this will not be considered.

4. The Government reserves the right to review other available sources (public/Government internal) of information. These may include but are not limited to OSHA data, NAVFAC's Contractor Incident Reporting System (CIRS), Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS), Electronic Contract Management System (eCMS), etc.

Factor 4 - Past Performance

(i) Solicitation Submittal Requirements:

If a completed Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS) evaluation is available, it shall be submitted with the proposal for each project included in Factor 1. The offeror shall include all completed CPARS evaluations (interim and final) for a project. If there is not a completed 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 1 Corporate Experience. AN OFFEROR SHALL NOT SUBMIT

A PPQ WHEN A COMPLETED CPARS IS AVAILABLE

If a CPARS evaluation is not available, 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). Offerors should ensure correct phone numbers and email addresses are provided for the client point of contact. Offerors should follow-up with clients/references to ensure timely submittal of questionnaires.
