Section A - Solicitation Index

In accordance with AMS T3.2.2.3 (A), with this SIR, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) intends to establish a Qualified Vendors List (QVL) for AJW-242 Unstaffed Infrastructure Sustainment (UIS) construction services to be performed on and off Airport Operating Areas in various locations throughout the United States.

This QVL SIR consists of the following Parts/Sections:

Part I - The Schedule Section A: Solicitation Index Section B: General Information about the QVL Section C: Scope of Work Section D: Packaging and Marking Section E: Inspection and Acceptance Section F: Deliveries or Performance Area Section G: Contract Administration Data Section H: Special Contract Requirements

Part II - Contract Clauses Section I: Contract Clauses

Part III - List of Documents, Exhibits, and Attachments Section J: List of Documents, Exhibits, and Attachments *

Part IV - Representations and Instructions Section K: Representations, Certifications and Other Statements of Offerors Section L: Application Instructions, Conditions, and Notices to Offerors Section M: Evaluation Factors for Award

* Attachments located after end of Section M.

Section B - General Information about the QVL

B.1 What is a Qualified Vendors List (QVL) A Qualified Vendors List (QVL) is a list of service or product providers who have had their products or services examined, tested or evaluated and who have satisfied all applicable qualification requirements. QVLs are intended as a mechanism to establish a pool of qualified vendors, any of which FAA would be satisfied with the products delivered or services performed. Pre-screening vendors allows only those most qualified contractors to perform a particular service or provide a particular product during a specific period. QVLs are most appropriate when the contracting office can reasonably anticipate recurring or repetitive requirements for the same or similar supplies or services.

The Contracting Officer has established one QVL for AJW-242 Unstaffed Infrastructure Sustainment (UIS) construction services in the Western, Central and Eastern Service Areas for On-Airport Operations Area (On-AOA) and Off-AOA projects, 6973GH-20-R-00040.

B.2 Why a QVL AAQ-722 selected a QVL because the source selection tool provides solutions to: (1) ensuring employment of quality, experienced contractors; and (2) addressing the need for quicker, more responsive procurements.

With regards to employment of quality, experienced contractors - This effort is a culmination of experience and knowledge in all three service areas. AAQ-722 took all of the combined lessons learned, and crafted a solicitation that focused on the quality of vendors.

With regards to procurement action lead times (PALT) -The 2012 Service Level Agreement between ACQ and ATO agrees to a timeline of between 88 and 177 calendar days for negotiated, competitive procurements. This is the often-hated “180 days”. By comparison, QVL-based procurements have a timeline of between 60 to 120 calendar days. In other words, a QVL reduces the procurement timeline by roughly a third. This source selection tool helps to alleviate some of that concern.

In addition to the procurement timeline savings, there are other unquantifiable benefits to QVLs. For instance, in a QVL setting, there is an inherent performance incentive for contractors: future work is dependent upon current, successful performance. As a result, there should also be an additional time/administrative cost savings: less time spent enforcing specifications or correcting performance.

B.3 Duration of the QVL The QVL will be in effect for five (5) years.

B.4 Requalification/Updating the QVL Application Process The FAA reserves the right to add vendors or update the list at any time. There will be an official requalification/reopening of the application process at some time after the initiation of this QVL to allow new vendors an opportunity to apply. At that time, members may be asked to confirm their continued interest to remain on the list, or opt out of the list, by responding in writing. A non-response may be viewed as lack of interest resulting in removal from the QVL.

B.5 Withdrawal from the QVL Members may, at any time, submit a written request to withdraw from the QVL.

B.6 Disqualification of the QVL The FAA reserves the right to disqualify and remove any member from the QVL at any time and for any reason including, but not limited to:

1. Poor quality of work as determined by the Contracting Officer

2. Debarment from Government Contracting

3. Failure to satisfy qualifying factors in subsequent RFQs

The FAA will provide the subject member with a Notification of Disqualification and the reasons for disqualification prior to removal from the QVL.

B.7 Canceling/Termination of the QVL If it is ever determined that the QVL is not in the best interest of the FAA, all members on the list will be provided with notice of termination.

B.8 Performance Difficulties If at any time, a vendor on an established QVL has performance difficulties, changes ownership, or otherwise becomes less than highly qualified, the CO may request that the vendor requalify by submitting qualification information again. A notification to the vendor of the reasons it is being required to requalify will be sent out.

B.9 Administration of the QVL

1. Once established, the Acquisitions Division will utilize the QVL for solicitations to the maximum extent possible.

2. The Contract Specialist (CS) will prepare the Request for Offer (RFO) or Request for Quote (RFQ) and ensure all applicable drawings and specifications are sent to each vendor on the QVL to obtain pricing. Each RFO or RFQ is prepared with clauses applicable to the particular requirement needed. The CS will evaluate proposals and make contract award in accordance with procedures outlined in the RFO or RFQ and AMS.

3. Offerors must be registered with the System for Award Management, www.sam.gov on the date established for receipt of offers on each individual order solicited under this QVL. The Offeror must ensure that their company's information on www.sam.gov is up to date, current business size level indicated on SAM will be applied for this QVL. Reference AMS Clause 3.3.1-33, paragraph (d), “if the offeror does not become registered in the SAM database in the time prescribed by the Contracting Officer, the Contracting Officer may proceed to award to http://www.sam.gov/ the next otherwise successful registered Offeror.”

4. The Contract Specialist (CS) will conduct a review of each vendor's performance at a minimum of every two (2) years. The review will cover the vendor's performance over the previous 12 month period. The CS will evaluate all vendors for responsiveness, competitiveness, and performance.

(End of clause)

3.3.1-33 SYSTEM FOR AWARD MANAGEMENT (JUL 2018)

(a) Definitions. As used in this clause

"Data Universal Numbering System (DUNS) number" means the 9-digit number assigned by Dun and Bradstreet, Inc. (D&B) to identify unique business entities.

"Data Universal Numbering System +4 (DUNS+4) number" means the DUNS number assigned by D&B plus a 4-character suffix that may be assigned by a business concern. (D&B has no affiliation with this 4-character suffix.)

This 4-character suffix may be assigned at the discretion of the business concern to establish additional SAM records for identifying alternative Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) accounts for the same parent concern.

"Registered in the SAM database" means that the Contractor has entered all mandatory information, including the DUNS number or the DUNS+4 number, into the SAM database.

"System for Award Management (SAM) Database" means the primary Government repository for Contractor information required for the conduct of business with the Government.

(b)(1) By submission of an offer, the offeror acknowledges the requirement that a prospective awardee must be registered in the SAM database prior to award, during performance, and through final payment of any contract, basic agreement, basic ordering agreement, or blanket purchasing agreement resulting from this solicitation.

(2) The offeror must enter, in Representations, Certifications and Other Statements of Offerors Section of the solicitation, the DUNS or DUNS +4 number that identifies the offeror's name and address exactly as stated in the offer. The DUNS number will be used by the Contracting Officer to verify that the offeror is registered in the SAM database.

(c) If the offeror does not have a DUNS number, it should contact Dun and Bradstreet directly to obtain one.

(1) An offeror may obtain a DUNS number

(i) If located within the United States, by calling Dun and Bradstreet at 1-866-705-5711 or via the Internet at http://fedgov.dnb.com/webform; or

(ii) If located outside the United States, by contacting the local Dun and Bradstreet office.

(2) The offeror should be prepared to provide the following information:

(i) Company legal business.

(ii) Tradestyle, doing business, or other name by which your entity is commonly recognized.

(iii) Company Physical Street Address, City, State, and ZIP Code.

(iv) Company Mailing Address, City, State and ZIP Code (if different from physical street address).

(v) Company Telephone Number.

(vi) Date the company was started.

(vii) Number of employees at your location.

(viii) Chief executive officer/key manager.

(ix) Line of business (industry).

(x) Company Headquarters name and address (reporting relationship within your entity).

(d) If the offeror does not become registered in the SAM database in the time prescribed by the Contracting Officer, the Contracting Officer may proceed to award to the next otherwise successful registered offeror.

(e) Processing time, which normally takes 48 hours, should be taken into consideration when registering. Offerors who are not registered should consider applying for registration immediately upon receipt of this solicitation.

(f) The Contractor is responsible for the accuracy and completeness of the data within the SAM database, and for any liability resulting from the Government's reliance on inaccurate or incomplete data. To remain registered in the SAM database after the initial registration, the Contractor is required to review and update on an annual basis from the date of initial registration or subsequent updates its information in the SAM database to ensure it is current, accurate and complete. Updating information in the SAM does not alter the terms and conditions of this contract and is not a substitute for a properly executed contractual document. If registered in SAM as a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB), by submission of an offer, the offeror acknowledges that they are designated as a SDVOSB by the Department of Veterans Affairs, and this designation appears as such on the Veteran Affairs website, https://www.vip.vetbiz.gov.

(g)(1)(i) If a Contractor has legally changed its business name, "doing business as" name, or division name (whichever is shown on the contract), or has transferred the assets used in performing the contract, but has not completed the necessary requirements regarding novation and change-of-name agreements in AMS Procurement Guidance, the Contractor must provide the responsible Contracting Officer a minimum of one business day's written notification of its intention to:

(A) change the name in the SAM database;

(B) comply with the requirements of AMS regarding novation and change-of-name agreements; and

(C) agree in writing to the timeline and procedures specified by the responsible Contracting Officer. The Contractor must provide the Contracting Officer with the notification, sufficient documentation to support the legally changed name.

(ii) If the Contractor fails to comply with the requirements of paragraph (g)(1)(i) of this clause, or fails to perform the agreement at paragraph (g)(1)(i)(C) of this clause, and, in the absence of a properly executed novation or change-of-name agreement, the SAM information that shows the Contractor to be other than the Contractor indicated in the contract will be considered to be incorrect information within the meaning of the "Suspension of Payment" paragraph of the electronic funds transfer (EFT) clause of this contract.

(2) The Contractor must not change the name or address for EFT payments or manual payments, as appropriate, in the SAM record to reflect an assignee for the purpose of assignment of claims. Assignees must be separately registered in the SAM database. Information provided to the Contractor's SAM record that indicates payments, including those made by EFT, to an ultimate recipient other than that Contractor will be considered to be incorrect information within the meaning of the "Suspension of payment" paragraph of the EFT clause of this contract.

(h) Offerors and Contractors may obtain information on registration and annual confirmation requirements via the internet at http://www.sam.gov.

(End of Clause)

3.6.3-12 ASBESTOS - FREE CONSTRUCTION (APR 2017)

(b) The Contractor must provide to the Contracting Officer (CO) a signed statement [CO state due date of statement here related to completion of the project] indicating that no asbestos or asbestos-containing building materials were used during construction, renovation, and/or modernization of this facility. The Contractor's certification under this clause is considered to be a material requirement of the contract and the FAA may withhold payment pending submittal and receipt of an acceptable certification.

(c) The FAA retains the right to conduct sampling of contractor building materials used during construction, renovation, and/or modernization of this facility to verify that they are asbestos-free. If asbestos-containing material is found, the Contractor must bear the expense of the sampling conducted by the FAA, remove and replace the asbestos-containing material and decontaminate the site of asbestos contamination caused by the Contractor at no additional cost to the Government. In addition, the Contractor must bear the expense of all testing (bulk sampling and air sampling conducted by the contactor and the FAA) to determine that the asbestos removal and site decontamination are satisfactorily completed. The Contractor must follow all applicable federal, state, and local asbestos regulatory requirements as well as applicable FAA Orders with respect to asbestos abatement when the Contractor is required to remove asbestos materials they have installed.

(End of clause)

3.6.4-3 BUY AMERICAN ACT - CONSTRUCTION MATERIALS (OCT 2014)

(a) The Buy American Act (41 U.S.C. Sec. 8301-8305) and Executive Order No. 10582, dated December 17, 1954, as amended, provide that the Government give preference to domestic construction material. The restrictions of the Buy American Act do not apply when FAA determines use of a particular domestic construction material: (i) would unreasonably increase the cost; (ii) would be impracticable; or (iii) is not mined, produced, or manufactured in sufficient and reasonably available commercial quantities of a satisfactory quality. This restriction also does not apply to information technology that is a commercial item or to the construction materials or components listed by the Government as follows:

[Contracting Officer to list applicable excepted materials or indicate "none"]

(b) Definitions:

(1) "Components," as used in this clause, means those articles, materials, and supplies incorporated directly into construction materials.

(2) "Construction material," as used in this clause, means an article, material, or supply brought to the construction site for incorporation into the building or work. Construction material also includes an item brought to the site pre-assembled from articles, materials or supplies. However, emergency life safety systems, such as emergency lighting, fire alarm, and audio evacuation systems, which are discrete systems incorporated into a public building or work and which are produced as a complete system, shall be evaluated as a single and distinct construction material regardless of when or how the individual parts or components of such systems are delivered to the construction site.

(3) "Domestic construction material," as used in this clause, means (i) an unmanufactured construction material mined or produced in the United States, or (ii) a construction material manufactured in the United States, if the cost of its components mined, produced, or manufactured in the United States exceeds 50 percent of the cost of all its components. Components of foreign origin of the same class or kind as the construction materials determined to be unavailable shall be treated as domestic.

(c) The Contractor agrees that only domestic construction material must be used by the Contractor, subcontractors, material men, and suppliers in the performance of this contract, except for foreign construction materials, if any, listed in this contract.

(d) Request for determination of inapplicability of the Buy American Act:

(1) Any Contractor request to use foreign construction material in accordance with paragraph(a) of this clause must include adequate information for Government evaluation of the request, including:

(i) A description of the foreign and domestic construction materials;

(ii) Unit of measure;

(iii) Quantity;

(iv) Price;

(v) Time of delivery or availability;

(vi) Location of the construction project;

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

(viii) A detailed justification of the reason for use of foreign construction materials cited in accordance with paragraph (a) of this clause.

A request based on unreasonable cost must include a reasonable survey of the market and a completed price comparison table in the format of paragraph (4) below.

The price of construction material must include all delivery costs to the construction site and any applicable duty (whether or not a duty-free certificate may be issued).

Any Contractor request for a determination submitted after contract award must explain why the Contractor could not reasonably have foreseen the need for such a determination and could not have requested the determination before contract award. If the Contractor does not provide a satisfactory explanation, the Contracting Officer need not make a favorable determination.

(2) If the Government determines after contract award that an exception to the Buy American Act 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.

(3) Unless the Government determines that an exception to the Buy American Act applies, use of foreign construction material is noncompliant with the Buy American Act

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

FOREIGN AND DOMESTIC MATERIAL PRICE COMPARISON

Construction Material Unit of Measure Quantity Price($)*

Item 1 Foreign Construction Material [ ] [ ] [ ] Domestic Construction Material [ ] [ ] [ ] Item 2 Foreign Construction Material [ ] [ ] [ ] Domestic Construction Material [ ] [ ] [ ]

(List name, address, phone number, and contact for supplier surveyed. Attach copy of response, if oral, attach summary)

*Include all delivery costs to the construction site and any applicable duty (whether or not a duty-free entry certificate is issued).
