PART 1. GENERAL

1.1 DESCRIPTION OF WORK:

The Contractor shall provide all plant, labor, tools, equipment, and materials (except as indicated otherwise in the specifications) and perform all work in strict accordance with the specifications and plans required for the Indefinite Delivery Contract (IDC). The IDC is for a broad range of maintenance, repair and minor construction work on vehicle roadways and airfield paving projects at Joint Base Lewis-McChord (JBLM). For this contract, Joint Base Lewis McChord includes Lewis-Main, Lewis-North, and McChord Field areas of JBLM. The work is required in support of Public Works (PW) activities headquartered at Joint Base Lewis-McChord (JBLM). During the contract period, the Government will identify tasks required to complete each specific job and will issue Requests for Proposals. The Contractor shall be required to furnish all materials, equipment and personnel necessary to manage and accomplish the Task Orders (TOs) as ordered from the IDC. The Task Orders may include construction, removal, replacement, and repairs associated with roadway and airfield projects, as defined below. Removal, replacement and repair of existing subgrade, utilities, shoulders, curbs, gutters, sidewalks and other real property common to roadway and airfield pavements shall also be included – depending on unique requirements of individual task orders.

1.2 DEFINTION OF “ROADWAY AND AIRFIELD PROJECTS”:

1.2.1 Roadway Pavement: Is a surfaced area designated to carry vehicular traffic that includes the entire pavement system structure above the subgrade. Hot Mixed Asphalt (HMA) or concrete required to support vehicle loadings whether they are the traveled way, shoulders, turn lanes, auxiliary lane, parking lots, is to be considered roadway pavement.

1.2.2 Airfield Pavement: Is a surfaced area designated to carry aircraft traffic and includes the entire pavement system structure above the subgrade. HMA or concrete required to support aircraft loadings, whether interior (hangar floors) or exterior, (runway, taxiway, taxi lane, aprons, shoulders, landing pads) is to be considered airfield pavement.

1.2.3 Range Roads: (Also known as Combat Vehicle Trails) are permanent roads used to access combat training areas on JBLM. Trails are to be useable by heavy tactical vehicles and equipment, construction equipment, log hauling operations, and lowboy truck and trailer. Typical Range Road can include:

- Speed 25 mph

- Subgrade 20 to 24 feet wide includes a 2 to 3 foot ditch

- Running Surface 16-20 feet wide

- Surfacing Crushed Rock

- Minimum Curve Radius 50-feet plus curve widening

1.2.4 Sidewalks: Is a safe path for people to walk along that is separated from motorized traffic.

Sidewalks may also be used as a paved path, trail or footpath that is not next to a road, for example, sidewalks between barracks, business, parking lots or recreational area. Surface material can be cement concrete, asphalt or gravel. Sidewalks are to be Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) compliant, constructed on top of a prepared gravel base, and to match existing grades. Most sidewalks are constructed as part of larger road projects; however, task orders can be awarded primarily as sidewalk construction.

1.2.5 Curb and Gutter: Used to separate the road from the roadside, control traffic flow, discourage drivers from parking or driving on sidewalks or leaving the roadway at non-controlled access points. They also provide structural support to the pavement edge. Curbs and gutters can be used to channel runoff water from rain or melted snow and ice into storm drains. Typically curb and gutter will be made of Portland cement concrete with an approximate total height of 16-inches and a gutter width of 12-inches and curb width of 6-inches. Concrete can be placed by a slip form/extrusion machine, formed method, or by a combination of these methods.

1.2.6 Parking Lot: Is a cleared area that is intended for parking vehicles that has a concrete, asphalt or graveled surface. The area is organized into parking spaces, which are generally marked with paint lines or wheel stops for each vehicle and driving lanes in between so that vehicles can drive into and out of the spaces. The arrangement of the parking spaces relative to the driving lanes can feature perpendicular parking spaces, angle parking, or parallel parking, or possibly some combination of these.

1.4 WORK COVERED BY CONTRACT DOCUMENTS

1.4.1 Location: The work shall be performed at various locations on Joint Base Lewis - McChord, Washington.

1.4.2 EXHIBIT LINE ITEMS (ELINS)

1.4.2.1 This is a pre-priced line-item contract. Task Orders issued under this contract shall be priced based on the ELINS identified in the ELIN Pricing Schedule (TE 01), and as described in the ELIN Descriptions (TE 02). On rare occasions, some task orders may include work that is not included on the ELIN schedule. In these cases, non-pre-priced (NPP) items may be negotiated, but the total price of all NPP items cannot exceed 10% of the task order value. Furthermore, any proposal with a NPP item exceeding $2500 must include three quotes from competing sub-contractors/suppliers, to aid the government in establishing fair and reasonable pricing for the NPP items.is a pre-priced line item contract.

Task Orders issued under this contract shall be priced based on the ELINS identified in the ELIN Pricing Schedule (Technical Exhibit C), and as described in the ELIN Descriptions (Technical Exhibit D). On rare occasions, some task orders may include work that is not included on the ELIN schedule. In these cases, non-pre-priced (NPP) items may be negotiated, but the total price of all NPP items cannot exceed 10% of the task order value.

Furthermore, any proposal with a NPP item exceeding $2500 must include three quotes from competing sub-contractors/suppliers, to aid the government in establishing fair and reasonable pricing for the NPP items.

1.4.2.2 The ELIN descriptions define the scope of work for each ELIN and reference the applicable technical specification by which the contractor must comply. Each ELIN description includes all labor, materials, equipment, mobilization, demobilization, clean-up, supervision, overhead, and profit required to perform the work. The ELIN Pricing Schedule identifies the unit of measure (and unit pricing upon award) for each ELIN.

1.4.2.3 The ELIN unit pricing will be fixed for the life of the contract, adjusted only with the exercise of each option period, by applying a co-efficient that will be calculated in accordance with the methodology described in the Statement of Work.

1.4.3 COMPUTATION OF COEFFICIENT FOR OPTION PERIODS

1.4.3.1 To ensure ELIN pricing is adjusted to reflect current market prices, a co-efficient will be calculated and applied to each Option Period. The contractor’s ELIN pricing for the base period shall be considered to have a co-efficient of 1.0. With the exercise of each Option, a new co-efficient will be calculated, based on the formula in paragraph 1.4.3.2 below. This co-efficient will then be applied to the sum of each task order’s negotiated ELINS, to result in the final task order pricing.

1.4.3.2 The computation of the coefficient for option years will be in accordance with the following formula:

pl = p x f Definitions:

pl = New Coefficient p = Coefficient Factor for Previous Contract Period (Note: Base Period Coefficient = 1.0) f = Index Factor

a. The Index Factor f, shall be computed according to the following equation:

f = CCI-C

CCI-B

b. Where: CCI-C is the Construction Cost Index (CCI) for the month in which the option period is exercised, as published by the ENR (formerly called the Engineering News Record).

c. The CCI-B is the CCI for the month in which the contract’s base period was awarded.

d. In computing f, the CCI-C may be located on the “Market Trends” page of the ENR issue current at the time that the option year is exercised.

1.4.3.3 If the CCI ceases to be published, the parties will agree on substitute indices to be used and the contract modified accordingly. Coefficients will not be adjusted for any other changes or circumstances encountered during the life of the contract. When it is determined that a task order requires modification the Contractor shall calculate his proposal using the same coefficient that was used in calculating the basic task order, regardless of the date of the modification.

1.4.4 ORDERING PROCEDURE

1.4.4.1 A Request for Proposal (RFP) with a project specific Statement of Work (SOW), that may include government provided concept sketch, and submittal register will be issued to the contractor. The Contractor will not be reimbursed for any pre-task order costs, including, site visits, proposal preparation, or attendance during negotiations.

1.4.4.2 A site walk(s) and scoping meeting(s) will be conducted with the government and contractor prior to submission of the proposal. The scope of work, sketches, recommended improvements, and means and methods of construction will be discussed.

1.4.4.3 The contractor will submit a proposal using the Exhibit Line Items (ELIN) pricing schedule that includes the appropriate ELINS and associated quantity take- offs applicable to the Task Order. The total price of the proposal will be established by multiplying the pre-priced unit price of each ELIN times the contractor’s proposed quantities for each ELIN. These ELINS will then be totaled, and the sum will be multiplied by the appropriate co-efficient (1.0 for the base period or the appropriate Option Period co-efficient, as calculated by the formula in Paragraph 1.4.3 above). The contractor will also include with its proposal a preliminary construction schedule, any recommended improvements to the SOW or sketches, and when applicable, a preliminary traffic control plan.

a. The description of each ELIN is included in Technical Exhibit D.

b. Non pre-priced (NPP) items are not to exceed 10% of the overall task order value. NPP items over $2,500 require three competitive quotes.

c. For individual ELINS, if a fraction of an ELIN unit is proposed, the total price of that

ELIN shall be submitted by rounding to the nearest penny.

1.4.4.4 A meeting may be conducted between the government and contractor to discuss applicable ELINS, quantities, non-pre-priced items (NPP), construction duration, and any changes to scope or sketches (recommended improvements).

1.4.4.5 ELINS agreed upon during discussions for each Task Order (to include the means and methods of construction) shall be considered to be included in the scope of work for that Task Order. Specific quantities agreed upon however shall only be used for the pricing of the Task Order and will not be binding on either party unless otherwise specified in the Task Order SOW. Tasks orders shall be awarded as firm fixed-prize awards based on tasks and specifications contained in award SOW and referenced Technical Exhibits.

1.4.4.6 A bilateral, firm fixed price task order will be awarded by the contracting officer to complete the work as negotiated, to include the final SOW and sketches. The contractor cannot begin work until the Contracting Officer has approved the applicable performance and payment bonds and a notice to proceed (NTP) is issued.

4.3 Environmental Coordination

If illicit discharges from construction sites impact outfall water quality, the primary contractor for the construction site will be responsible for all fines and violations associated with illicit discharge. The primary contractor will also be responsible for all maintenance, cleanup, or reporting associated with illicit discharge. The primary contractor must also self-report al illicit discharges to the EPA. The primary contractor also needs to include the stormwater program manager in the self-reporting process and CC’ed in all communication with the EPA regarding the illicit discharge. Failure to do so may cause DPW to issue a stop work order until the project is back in compliance with MS4 and other permits.

Additional training for stormwater compliance may be required depending on the severity of the illicit discharge.

4.3.1 The Contractor shall comply with all Joint Base Lewis-McChord (JBLM) environmental requirements, including the most current installation regulation 200-1 (Environmental Protection and Enhancement) and Design Standards specification section 01 57 19 Temporary Environmental Controls and 01 57 19.01 20 Supplemental Temporary Environmental Controls.
