Section 00 22 20 Pg 2

1.0 OVERVIEW

The most highly qualified offerors selected in Phase 1 are invited to submit a Phase 2 proposal, as indicated below. The

Government will evaluate the proposals in accordance with the evaluation criteria described herein, using the evaluation rating systems outlined in the Phase 1 Design-Build selection procedures. Price information will be evaluated for fairness, reasonableness, and for material unbalancing, as described herein. The Phase 2 evaluation will be conducted in accordance with FAR Part 15 and will utilize the Tradeoff Process described in FAR 15.101-1.

2.0 BASIS OF AWARD

The Contracting Officer will award a firm fixed-price contract to the responsible Phase 2 Offeror whose proposal the

Source Selection Authority determines conforms to the solicitation, is fair and reasonable, and offers the best overall value to the Government, considering the non-price factors described herein, and price. All evaluation factors, other than price, when combined, are considered significantly more important than the price, however, the Contract award may not exceed the cost limitation described in Section 00 21 00 for this project. The intent of this solicitation is to obtain the best proposal within the cost limitation. There is no obligation to approach or match the cost limitation in the offer. After the Government individually evaluates and rates each proposal, the Contracting Officer/Source Selection

Authority will compare proposals to determine which proposal represents the best value. Proposals will not be ranked.

The Government reserves the right to accept other than the lowest priced offer or to reject all offers. The Government will not award a contract to an Offeror whose proposal contains a deficiency, as defined in FAR 15.001. If there is a lower priced, conforming offer(s), the Contracting Officer/Source Selection Official must determine that the added value of a more expensive proposal (within the cost limitation) would justify award to that Offeror.

2.1. As part of the evaluation, the Government will evaluate betterments in proposals relative to the minimum standards in the RFP to determine if they offer additional value to the Government. In addition, innovations in proposals will be evaluated to determine if creative ideas of the Offeror are a better value to the Government compared to the minimum criteria.

2.2 Proposals should be submitted initially on the most favorable terms from a price and technical standpoint. Do not assume that offerors will be contacted or afforded an opportunity to clarify, discuss or revise their proposals.

5.0 VOLUME 1 – FACTOR 1 – DESIGN - TECHNICAL

5.1. GENERAL: The design-technical Factor consists of conceptual level presentation drawings, technical approach narratives and information regarding material and system quality. It must clearly define the proposed scope and quality levels that the design-build team is offering to the Government in enough detail for the Government and the Offeror to mutually understand whether or not the proposal meets or exceeds the minimum Solicitation requirements. The use of

BIM to prepare or submit proposals is NOT required. Fully developed drawings, details or specifications are not required or desired. Unless specifically stated herein, the Government will not be performing a detailed engineering analysis or design review at the proposal stage. The intent during the proposal submission and review process is not to require detailed design effort or to perform a detailed design engineering review but to focus on the proposed quality levels of materials and systems c o n s i s t e n t w i t h s u b f a c t o r s 1 t h r u 4. If the Government evaluators have actual knowledge or strong suspicion that a proposed product or solution is inappropriately sized, being used in the wrong application or otherwise does not meet the contract requirements, the Government will inform the proposer in the event that discussions are conducted with the firm. T h e Government is not asking for design analyses in the proposal and is not obligated to perform an engineering design review at this stage. After award, in the event of conflict between the contractor’s accepted proposal and the requirements in the final amended RFP, the order of precedence is indicated in

Clause 52.236-5000, “Design Build Order Of Precedence”. The Offeror shall identify what it considers to be Betterments in its proposal for Subfactors 1-4 of Factor 1 (See Section 00 73 00.00 29, SCR “Proposed Betterments”). Betterments included in the technical submission must also be included in the base price under Factor 4. Do not describe in the narratives or show in the drawings any betterments that are not included in the base price. The final design must comply with the RFP requirements except that accepted betterments become the new contract minimum requirements. Note that the

Government will not evaluate any material that exceeds the page limits, where indicated below.

The design and construction should provide an appropriate level of quality to ensure the continued use of the facility over that time period with the application of reasonable preventive maintenance and repairs that would be industry-acceptable to a major civilian sector project OWNER. The facility design should consider that the Air Force may repurpose the use of the facility over the 50 year life. The Air Force's intent is to install products and materials of good quality that meet industry standard average life that corresponds with the period of performance expected before a major renovation or repurpose.

The design should be flexible and adaptable to possible future uses different than the current to the extent practical while still meeting the operational and functional requirements defined within. Flexibility is achieved through design of more flexible structural load-bearing wall and column system arrangements. The site infrastructure will have at least a 50-year life expectancy with industry-accepted maintenance and repair cycles. Develop the project site for efficiency and to convey a sense of unity or connectivity with the adjacent buildings and with the Installation as a whole. Building useful life is defined by the length of service of the structural systems; concrete, masonry, steel, and wood in any combination.

These structural systems last a lifetime when properly constructed and maintained. The building systems; electrical, mechanical, interior finishes etc. vary in useful life based on quality of the products and materials. Generally speaking these systems will last an average of 20-30 years. Historically the Air Force has often performed a major renovation or changed the use of the facility once in the first 25 years. Within that overriding theme the Government will evaluate the

Offeror selected systems and components proposed in terms of extended warranties provided, maintenance considerations

(frequency, estimated cost, access, equipment locations), operability (ease of use, placement of control features, simplicity), durability (withstand troop usage, ease of cleaning), sustainability, and energy consumption (HVAC, lighting, power). The minimum acceptable level of quality for finishes and materials for these buildings are those materials suitable for the expected population and usage. Residential or similar grade finishes and materials are not acceptable for inclusion in these buildings, unless otherwise specifically allowed in Section 01 10 00. Acceptance of the proposal is not a guaranty that the proposed products meet the contractual requirements or that they are the appropriate size or application for the design which will be developed after award. The intent during the proposal submission and review process is not to require detailed design effort or to perform a detailed design engineering review but to focus on the proposed quality levels of materials and systems If the Government evaluators have actual knowledge or strong suspicion that a proposed product or solution is inappropriately sized, being used in the wrong application or otherwise won’t meet the contract requirements, the Government will inform the proposer in the event that discussions are conducted with the firm. But the Government is not asking for design analyses in the proposal and is not obligated to

W911KB-17-R-0021

Section 00 22 20 Pg 11 perform an engineering design review at this stage. After award, in the event of conflict between the contractor’s accepted proposal and the requirements in the final, amended RFP, the order of precedence is indicated in Clause 52.236-

5000, “Design-Build Order Of Precedence”.

5.3.3.2. The Government encourages the Offeror to place emphasis on those design features which optimize and emphasize functional/operational requirements; interior/exterior finishes and systems; and life cycle/ energy efficiency.

The Offeror may choose the most economical “Type of Construction” allowed by the Building Code for this occupancy/project and put the money into durable finishes and efficient systems. The features that the Government has identified below as desirable features, the items that the Government has identified in paragraph 5.3.1 as preferable and

Offeror-identified betterments may be given additional consideration during the evaluation process provided they are included within contract cost limitation identified in the Solicitation and the offeror’s proposed base contract price. The order of importance for proposed betterments for rating purposes is as follows: desirable features, preferable items and other Offeror identified betterments. The Government will identify those Offeror identified betterments that are not desired, or are otherwise objectionable or unacceptable, if discussions are conducted with that Offeror. Unsubstantiated claims or narrative information will not be given evaluation credit during the evaluations. The following elements (not rated separately) will be considered in the evaluation of the building systems and materials of the various facilities:

(a) Architectural Finishes, Components and Systems: Acceptable proposals include finishes, components and systems which provide usable spaces for the intended purposes. Proposals will receive additional consideration for materials and systems offered that include extended warranties, longer life expectancies, sustainability, durability (stand up to troop usage), have low maintenance requirements, and enhance the overall life cycle cost efficiency of the facility.

Desirable features: solid wood cabinetry; solid surface counter tops; ceramic tile; increased R-values for roof and walls; extended non-pro-rated, no-leak roof warranty; high efficiency windows and doors; welded door frames in heavy use/shop/storage areas.
