NOTICE FOR FILING AGENCY PROTESTS

United States Coast Guard Ombudsman Program

It is the policy of the United States Coast Guard (USCG) to issue solicitations and make contract awards in a fair and timely manner. The Ombudsman Program for Agency Protests (OPAP) was established to investigate agency protest issues and resolve them without expensive and time-consuming litigation. OPAP is an independent reviewing authority that is empowered to grant a prevailing protester essentially the same relief as the Government Accountability Office (GAO).

Interested parties are encouraged to seek resolution of their concerns within the USCG as an

Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) forum rather than filing a protest with the GAO or some external forum. Interested parties may seek resolution of their concerns informally or opt to file a formal agency protest with the Contracting Officer or Ombudsman.

Informal Forum with the Ombudsman. Interested parties who believe a specific USCG procurement is unfair or otherwise defective should first direct their concerns to the applicable Contracting Officer.

If the Contracting Officer is unable to satisfy their concerns, interested parties are encouraged to contact the U.S. Coast Guard Ombudsman for Agency Protests. Under this informal process the agency is not required to suspend contract award performance. Use of an informal forum does not suspend any time requirement for filing a protest with the agency or other forum. In order to ensure a timely response, interested parties should provide the following information to the Ombudsman:

solicitation/contract number, contracting office, Contracting Officer, and solicitation closing date (if applicable).

Formal Agency Protest with the Ombudsman. Prior to submitting a formal agency protest, protesters must first use their best efforts to resolve their concerns with the Contracting Officer through open and frank discussions. If the protester’s concerns are unresolved, an Independent Review is available by the Ombudsman. The protester may file a formal agency protest to either the Contracting

Officer or as an alternative to that, the Ombudsman under the OPAP program. Contract award or performance will be suspended during the protest period unless contract award or performance is justified, in writing, for urgent and compelling reasons or is determined in writing to be in the best interest of the Government. The agency’s goal is to resolve protests in less than 35 calendar days from the date of filing. Protests shall include the information set forth in FAR 33.103(d) (2). If the protester fails to submit the required information, resolution of the protest may be delayed or the protest may be dismissed. To be timely protests must be filed within the period specified in FAR 33.103(e). Formal protests filed under the OPAP program should be submitted electronically to OPAP@uscg.mil and the

Contracting Officer or by hand delivery to the Contracting Officer.

Election of Forum. After an interested party protests a Coast Guard procurement to the Contracting

Officer or the Ombudsman, and while the protest is pending, the protester agrees not to file a protest with the GAO or other external forum. If the protest is filed with an external forum, the agency protest will be dismissed.

The Ombudsman Hotline telephone number is 202.372.3695.

(1) This clause implements 41 U.S.C.chapter 83, by providing a preference for domestic construction material. In accordance with 41 U.S.C.1907, the component test of the Buy American statute is waived for construction material that is a COTS item. (See FAR 12.505(a)(2)). In addition, the Contracting

Officer has determined that the WTO GPA and Free Trade Agreements (FTAs) apply to this acquisition.

(3) The requirement in paragraph (b)(2) of this clause 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”]

(4) The Contracting Officer may add other foreign construction material to the list in paragraph

(b)(3) of this clause if the Government determines that-

(i) The cost of domestic construction material would be unreasonable. The cost of a particular domestic construction material subject to the restrictions of the Buy American statute is unreasonable when the cost of such material exceeds the cost of foreign material by more than 6 percent;

(ii) The application of the restriction of the Buy American Act to a particular construction material would be impracticable or inconsistent with the public interest; or

(iii) The construction material is not mined, produced, or manufactured in the United States in sufficient and reasonably available commercial quantities of a satisfactory quality.

(c) Request for determination of inapplicability of the Buy American statute.

(1)

(D) Price;

(E) Time of delivery or availability;

(F) Location of the construction project;

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

(H)A detailed justification of the reason for use of foreign construction materials cited in accordance with paragraph (b)(3) of this clause.

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

(iv) Any Contractor request for a determination submitted after contract award shall explain why the Contractor could not reasonably foresee the need for such determination and could not have requested the determination before contract award. If the Contractor does not submit a satisfactory explanation, the Contracting Officer need not make a determination.

(2)If the Government determines after contract award that an exception to the Buy American statute 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. However, when the basis for the exception is the unreasonable price of a domestic construction material, adequate consideration is not less than the differential established in paragraph (b)(4)(i) of this clause.

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

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

mailto:FDCC-PROPOSALS@uscg.mil

III. SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS

SPECIFIC SUBMISSION REQUIREMENTS FOR PHASE 2:

CLOSING DATE: May 21, 2020 AT 2:00 P.M. local time (Seattle, WA)

The completed proposal shall be submitted to Gabriel Perez, Contracting Officer, via email at gabriel.d.perez@uscg.mil and FDCC-PROPOSALS@uscg.mil. Each electronic submission must be less than 10MB; submissions greater than 10MB will not be received due to system limitations.

Proposals must be prepared in accordance with these submission instructions, providing all required information in the format specified. Failure of a proposal to comply with the submission instructions contained in this task order announcement may be grounds for exclusion of the proposal from further consideration.

For the purposes of establishing timely receipt of proposals, the email submission for the proposal must be received by the Government prior to the closing date and time identified above.

All contractors have the option to opt-out of proposal submission. If the contractor decides to opt-out, the contractor shall submit a statement via email to gabriel.d.perez@uscg.mil and FDCC-

PROPOSALS@uscg.mil informing the Contracting Officer of the contractor’s intent not to submit a proposal.

Page Limit for the ENTIRE Non-Price submission: 15 single-side pages. Teaming agreements don’t count against the page limitation.

At a minimum, the Contractor’s Non-Price submission shall address the following:

1. Discuss the design and construction approach for each of the major scope items listed below. The discussion shall address the complexities/challenges/risks for the major scope items listed and the proposed mitigation strategy. The discussion shall also include the associated permitting for the major scope items:

A. Waterfront (to include the pier addition, modifications to existing pier, and associated utilities;

B. MWD Building;

C. Building 21;

D. Building 16;

E. Utility Work.

2. Provide a Phasing Plan/Approach to complete the entire scope of work (major scope items and associated site work) within the contract period of performance.

mailto:gabriel.d.perez@uscg.mil

3. Describe the Contractor’s established and/or proposed relationships with subcontractors and the contractor’s plan to retain or expand these subcontractor relationships throughout the life of the project.

Discuss management of multiple subcontractors. Higher Confidence may be assigned to Contractors that are able to provide Teaming Agreements with major subcontractors.

SPECIFIC SUBMISSION REQUIREMENTS FOR PHASE 3:

Only contractors selected to move forward to Phase 3 will submit price proposals.

The Government will provide a minimum of 30 days to the contractors for development of price proposals after Phase 2. In addition, the Government will notify those contractors, selected to compete in Phase 3, of the closing date for receipt of these proposals. It is the contractor’s responsibility to ensure sufficient time is provided for electronic submissions to be processed through the Government’s electronic point of entry. The contractor shall acknowledge the solicitation and all amendments thereto.

Price Proposal:

The Government will request a price proposal from the contractors selected to move forward to Phase 3.

Complete all lines on the Price Proposal Form and send directly via email to gabriel.d.perez@uscg.mil and FDCC-PROPOSALS@uscg.mil.

The completed price proposal forms (attached) only shall be submitted via email. Price proposals must be prepared in accordance with these submission instructions, providing all required information in the format specified. Failure of a proposal to comply with the submission instructions contained in this task order announcement may be grounds for exclusion of the proposal from further consideration.

Therefore, it is imperative that the contractor’s proposed price shall accurately reflect the total of all

Base Line Item(s).

Since adequate price competition is anticipated to determine price reasonableness by price comparison, contractors are not required to submit detailed cost or pricing data with their proposals. However, if after review of the price proposals, it is determined that there is not adequate price competition, other than cost and pricing data will be required. The Contracting Officer reserves the right to require submission of a detailed price breakdown or other additional information from one or more contractors, as required to both ensure that a fair opportunity has been offered to all contractors and to also ensure that the price is fair and reasonable.

Proposal Acceptance Period: The contractor shall mark its proposal valid from 120 calendar days from receipt of offer.

IV. BASIS OF AWARD

Evaluation Factors.

Non Price Criteria: The evaluation team will assess the quality of the proposals based on the contractor’s understanding of the requirements, proposed plan/approach and likelihood of successful and timely performance of the task order with little or no Government intervention. A sound approach is one that addresses each of the major scope items (Waterfront (to include the pier addition, modifications to existing pier, and associated utilities) MWD Building, Building 21, Building 16, Utility Work).

Proposals that demonstrate that the contractor has identified the challenges and risks associated with the major scope items and has developed mitigation strategies to manage those challenges/risks may receive a higher confidence rating. Proposals that identify the permitting required for the major scope items and provide detailed information on how the contractor will manage permitting to avoid interruptions or delays to contract performance may receive a higher confidence rating. Contractors which have

Teaming Agreements with major subcontractors may receive a higher confidence rating.

Price Factor: The Government will evaluate the contractor’s proposal for price reasonableness. The

Government anticipates that there will be adequate competition to establish price reasonableness. The

Government will evaluate the total price of the base item.

Evaluation Process. A phased approach to this procurement will be used to select a task order awardee.

Phase 1. Distribution of Draft Specification.

Phase 1 is an information only phase and involves no required contractor submission and no government evaluation.

Phase 2. Consideration of Non-Price: A quality assessment of proposals will be conducted to determine the contractors that will move forward to Phase 3. To make a determination of the most highly qualified in Phase 2, the Government shall evaluate proposals on the topics described above and assign a single combined rating.

Phase 3. Consideration of Price: The Government will request a price proposal from the contractors chosen to move forward to Phase 3. Price proposals will be evaluated for reasonableness of total evaluated price and award will be to the lowest-priced offer.

V. RATING SCHEME

The Government will describe its level of confidence using the following ratings. A single confidence rating will be assigned to denote a determination of the level of quality of the proposal as a result of the evaluation factors in the manner discussed above for Phase 2.

High Confidence - The Government has high confidence that the Contractor understands the requirement, proposes a sound approach, and/or will be successful in performing the contract with little or no Government intervention.

Some Confidence - The Government has some confidence that the Contractor understands the requirement, proposes a sound approach, and/or will be successful in performing the contract with some

Government intervention.

Low Confidence - The Government has low confidence that the Contractor understands the requirement, proposes a sound approach, and/or will be successful in performing the contract even with Government intervention.

VI. ADVANCEMENT PROCESS

Advancement to Phase 3 will be determined as follows:

1. The Technical Evaluation Team will assign a single combined confidence rating of High

Confidence, Some Confidence or Low Confidence to each contractor’s proposal.

2. So long as there are at least three contractors scored with a High Confidence, only the High

Confidence offers will proceed to Phase 3.

3. In the event that there are less than three contractors scored High Confidence, both the contractors in the Some Confidence and High Confidence ratings will advance to Phase 3.

4. In the event that there are less than two contractors scored in the Some Confidence and High

Confidence ratings, the government reserves the option to either convert to a negotiated procurement or cancel the solicitation.
