INSTRUCTIONS TO OFFERORS

1. SOLICITATION DESCRIPTION

1.1 Indefinite Delivery Type Contracts: As part of the Advanced Contract Initiative (ACI) Emergency Temporary

Roof Repair acquisition strategy, the Government intends to issue one (1) solicitation and award one (1) subsequent unrestricted single award task order contract (SATOC) for the Atlantic Coast primary region to include Connecticut, Delaware, District of Columbia, Florida, Georgia, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, South Carolina, and Virginia along with the Gulf Coast secondary region to include Alabama, Louisiana, Mississippi, and Texas.

Acquisitions to be awarded under this solicitation:

Primary Region Secondary Region Set-Aside Capacity

Atlantic Coast – FL to ME Gulf Coast – AL to TX Unrestricted $45,000,000.00

This solicitation is for the 2021 unrestricted contract covering the Atlantic Coast primary region. Another solicitation has been advertised concurrently for four set-aside contracts covering the Atlantic Coast primary region. Separate solicitations were issued for the 2020 small business and unrestricted contracts covering the Gulf Coast primary region in the spring of 2020. The geographic scope of this solicitation allows for work in the entire continental United States (CONUS) if needed. All task orders issued under the SATOCs will be Firm Fixed-Price.

The SATOC will not exceed $45,000,000.00 in capacity, with a minimum guarantee of $2,500.00 (to include the base and option period). Award will be made to the most responsible offeror whose proposal conforms to the criteria established in this solicitation and is considered most advantageous to the Government; price and other factors considered. In any case, the Government may not award any contract if the resulting contract would not represent the “best value” to the Government using trade-off selection procedures as required by the DFARS and using guidance as prescribed by the Department of Defense (DoD) Source Selection Procedures.

It is strongly encouraged that the provisions stated in the solicitation be fully studied prior to assembly of the proposal.

The period of performance for the SATOC consists of a 5-year base period and a 2-year option period for a total 7-year performance period. The Government’s decision to exercise an option will be contingent on satisfactory contactor performance and an informal survey of current market conditions. The decision to exercise the option is at the discretion of the Government.

An offeror will be awarded no more than one $45,000,000 SATOC covering CONUS (i.e., Atlantic Coast and Gulf Coast) between the 2020 and 2021 solicitations. This includes any combination of teaming arrangements, joint venture, or mentor-protégé arrangements as prime contractors. This restriction does not include subcontracting. An offeror who was awarded a SATOC under a 2020 solicitation will not be considered for award in this 2021 solicitation. An offeror will still be considered for SATOCs in solicitations for areas other than CONUS. The Government may reject any or all offers if such action is determined to be in the best interest of the Government.

1.2 Set-Aside: This solicitation is an unrestricted procurement.

1.3 Eligibility Verification: The System for Award Management or (https://www.SAM.gov) website will be checked to verify an offeror’s current classification under North American Industry Classification Code (NAICS) 238160, Roofing Contractors with a small business size standard of $16.5 million.

1.4 Award: The U. S. Army Corps of Engineers intends to conduct this acquisition by use of competitive source selection procedures in accordance with the provisions set forth in this solicitation.

This contract will be awarded to fulfill the Government’s anticipated need for rapid-response temporary roofing projects along the Atlantic Coast to include Connecticut, Delaware, District of Columbia, Florida, Georgia, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, South Carolina, and Virginia.

The effect will be to have numerous capable and responsible contractors that can facilitate and maximize the Government’s response capability in the event of an emergency, as it is the Government’s intent to maximize the number of contracts, and thus contractors to draw upon, to respond to a catastrophic event. Having numerous contractors with contracts that have scopes with overlapping geographic coverage is crucial to meeting the Government’s needs here, which is to ensure that the Government has adequate coverage and contract capacity in the event of an emergency event in any one (1) location.

CPARS is an electronic repository of performance information collected by all the major federal performance reporting systems and can be accessed at the aforementioned website. Contractors are encouraged to obtain and use a certificate from an External Certificate Authority (ECA). External Certificate Authorities (ECAs) and Interim External Certificate Authorities (IECAs) provide digital certificates to the DoD's private industry partners, contractors using their own equipment or working in non-government facilities, allied partners, and other agencies. Additional information about the PKI certificate is at https://www.cpars.gov/pki_info.htm web page. You will also need your DUNS number and Marketing Partner Identification Number (MPIN) to log onto CPARS. The MPIN number was selected by whoever registered your company in the System for Award Management (SAM) Registry at https://beta.sam.gov/. If you do not know your MPIN number, you will need to contact the SAM help desk by emailing them from the email link on the SAM web page.

Please be aware that they will only release the MPIN number to the person who originally registered your company. Additional instructions on locating your MPIN is located in the Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) section under the Help tab.

2) Past Performance Questionnaires (PPQs) may be used to provide or supplement a firm’s past performance with other than U.S. Governmental clients. Contact your client point of contact (POC) for the project you need a past performance record and request the POC to complete the PPQ. The PPQ included in this solicitation is provided for the offeror to submit to the client for each project the offeror may need a past performance record for to meet the requirements in this solicitation. Ensure correct phone numbers and email addresses are provided for the client POC. 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, which will provide contract and client information for the respective project(s). It is the offeror’s responsibility to follow-up with client POCs to ensure timely submittal of questionnaires. If the client requests, questionnaires may be submitted directly to the Government’s point of contact, Wayne C. Weidenhamer, at wayne.c.weidenhamer@usace.army.mil prior to proposal closing date. If a PPQ is submitted for a project, the complete PPQ shall be submitted (either by the client POC or the offeror) prior to proposal closing date.

3) Any equivalent to CPARS or PPQ issued by the client.

If the offeror’s CPARS rating is available, then the contractor should submit the CPARS rating. A PPQ should not be submitted when a CPARS rating or other official rating is available. For those offerors whose past performance information is not located in a system such as CPARS, offerors should contact their references and request each reference complete the PPQ. The PPQ should be completed by the client or client’s representative not affiliated with the offeror’s firm and should be signed by the client or client’s representative. PPQs previously completed by the client for other solicitations are acceptable (to include those previously completed for other RFPs.

The Government intends to assess the relevancy and performance based on the past performance information provided received and/or retrieved. A significant achievement, unexplained or unresolved problem, or lack of relevant data may significantly impact the risk rating by the Source Selection Evaluation Board (SSEB).

Therefore, it is incumbent upon the offeror to include all relevant information, including demonstrated corrective actions, in its proposal.
