LLC Certification of Organization, Articles of Organization and the Operating Agreement, if applicable (see 00 21 00, Para 1.12).

6.0 TAB B – FACTOR 1 – SPECIALIZED EXPERIENCE

6.1 SUBMISSION REQUIRMENTS

6.1.1. The prime contractor and designer of record firm(s) for civil, structural, mechanical and electrical design shall each demonstrate recent, relevant experience on similar construction, design-build and repair of utilidors and related systems (which includes utilities systems) using the Section 00 22 10 Attachment 2, titled, “Company Specialized Experience - Construction Or Prime Contractor;” and, Section 00 22 10 Attachment 3, titled, “Company Specialized Experience – Design Firm Or In-House Design Capability” (included at the end of the section and with no more than 2 pages per project). Offerors may identify state and local government and private contracts that are similar to the Government’s requirements. If the offeror is a joint venture, each firm of the joint venture shall provide information demonstrating experience relevant to their role on this project. Submit projects that are currently well underway (designed and at least 50% construction progress completed) or completed and turned over no longer than ten (10) years preceding the date of this solicitation. An offeror may receive credit for relevant experience under a previous business arrangement (joint venture for example) if the offeror demonstrates that their role on the submitted project is relevant to their role on this project. The offeror shall select the design firm(s).

Design firms may list projects of prime contracts they have worked for or projects directly contracted with government, private or commercial customers. If projects were design-build, so identify them. Submit no more than five (5) projects for the prime contractor for utilidors and related systems type or equivalent requirement. In addition to five (5) prime offeror projects, submit no more than five (5) projects total for the design firms.

6.1.2 Provide one page consolidated list of submitted projects for prime contractor and design firms to include a matrix that identifies the Specialized Experience projects and the firms that worked on each (teaming).

6.1.3 Provide a supplemental narrative, not to exceed two (2) pages, to address any of the following that are applicable. The information shall be limited to projects that are currently well underway (designed and at least 50% construction progress completed) or completed and turned over no longer than ten (10) years preceding the date of this solicitation.

a. Offerors who submit experience information of a parent, sister or other affiliated company shall describe what involvement such company will have on the instant acquisition and demonstrate a firm commitment that the affiliated firm will participate meaningfully in the performance of the contract. The narrative shall clearly and specifically indicate what resources of the parent, sister or other affiliated company – its workforce, management, facilities, or other resources – will be provided or relied upon for contract performance. The Government may discount the experience of a parent, sister or other affiliated company unless the prime contractor clearly provides evidence of a binding teaming agreement or other contractual agreement which creates legal responsibility on the part of the parent, sister or other affiliated company or provides a Meaningful Relationship Commitment Letter including the following:

(i) A statement of commitment as to the performance and utilization of the identified entity’s resources on the project.

(ii) Signatures of both the Offeror and Meaningful Relationship Entity

b. Describe any previous teaming experience between current team members, if not described on the project experience forms. Identify specific projects and address how the team members worked together to achieve safety, quality, and schedule compliance goals.

c. Describe team member’s experience with environmental compliance and permitting procedures.

6.2 EVALUATION CRITERIA:

6.2.1. The Government will evaluate the extent of recent, related experience of the prime contractor and subcontractors as relevant to their role on this project. The Government may place greater importance on demonstrated utilidors or related systems experience by the prime or key subcontractor depending on relevancy. For the prime contractor, the Government may place greater importance on projects performed as a prime contractor than as a subcontractor, depending upon overall role and relevancy considerations. In assessing relevancy of Specialized Experience, the definitions for relevancy ratings included under the Past Performance evaluation factor will be utilized.

6.2.2 Relevant experience includes:

(a) Experience with design/construction of utilidors and manholes;

(b) Experience with design/construction of utility distribution infrastructure to include steam and condensate return systems, sewer systems, water systems or other similar distribution systems;

(c) Experience with direct bury utilities;

(d) Location of work and similarity to the climate Zone 8 as defined by ANSI/ASHRAE Standard 169 climate zone map for the United States;

(e) Previous design-build experience;

(f) Previous teaming experience between the prime contractor, primary design firm, and subcontractors.

Experience with utilidor systems is considered most relevant. Experience examples that demonstrate design-build, utilidor projects and/or previous teaming experience with the same design firm will receive additional rating consideration. Federal Government project experience will not be rated inherently more important than non-Federal Government project experience.

6.2.3 To receive credit for extent (amount) of experience, the offeror shall demonstrate a history of recent, relevant experience. Experience of a parent, sister or other affiliated company will not be considered if the offeror fails to demonstrate what resources of the parent, sister or other affiliated company will be provided or relied upon or fails to demonstrate the existence of a contractual or meaningful relationship with the parent, sister or other affiliated company. Experience under a previous business arrangement will not be considered relevant if the firm’s role on the submitted project is not considered relevant to their anticipated role on this project.

7.0 TAB C – FACTOR 2 - PAST PERFORMANCE

7.1. SUBMISSION REQUIREMENTS:

7.1.1 Past performance refers to the quality of recent project experience from the owner’s perspective. The offeror shall provide customer reference name(s), company affiliation and current contact information (phone number and email address) on the specific project experience sheets submitted for TAB B – FACTOR 1 and include the performance rating by the owner on the form, if the offer was rated. For Federal projects submitted under Specialized Experience (TAB B – FACTOR 1), the offeror may rely on finalized CPARS reports, otherwise the offeror shall utilize the Past Performance Questionnaire (PPQ) form (Section 00 22 10 Attachment 4) for the offeror or its team members to submit to the client for each project. Previously completed PPQ(s) may be submitted however ensure current phone numbers and email addresses are provided for the client point of contact. The completed PPQs should be submitted with your proposal and may be duplicated for submission on future solicitations. If the offeror is unable to obtain a completed PPQ from a client for a project(s) before the 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). Offerors should follow-up with clients/references to ensure timely submittal of questionnaires. If the client requests, questionnaires may be submitted directly to the Government’s point of contact, Ron Jackson via email at ronald.k.jackson@usace.army.mil prior to proposal closing date. Offerors shall not incorporate by reference into their proposal PPQs previously submitted for other RFPs.

7.1.2 Projects cited shall be currently well underway (fully designed and at least 50% construction progress completed) or completed and turned over within ten (10) years preceding the date of this solicitation. The Government may contact and interview the points of contact and reserves the right to review data from CPARS or other agency performance databases on projects determined to be recent and relevant as defined above. Team members are encouraged to briefly provide information on problems encountered on identified or other contracts and the corrective action taken.

7.1.3 In addition to the above, the Government may review any other sources of information for evaluating past performance. Other sources may include, but are not limited to, past performance information retrieved through the Past Performance Information Retrieval System (PPIRS), including Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting

System (CPARS) for Interim Reports on Projects at least 50% complete, inquiries of owner representative(s), Federal Awardee Performance and Integrity Information System (FAPIIS), and any other known sources not provided by the offeror. While the Government may elect to consider data from other sources, the burden of providing detailed, current, accurate and complete past performance information rests with the Offeror.

7.1.4 If submitting past performance of a parent, sister or other affiliated company for your firm on this solicitation, if the offeror fails to demonstrate what resources of the parent, sister or other affiliated company will be provided or relied upon or fails to demonstrate the existence of a contractual or meaningful relationship with the parent, sister or other affiliated company, no credit will be given. Additionally, an offeror may receive credit for relevant past performance under a previous business arrangement (joint venture for example) if the offeror demonstrates that their role on the submitted project is relevant to their role on this solicitation.

7.2. EVALUATION CRITERIA:

7.2.1. The Government will first assess and rate the relevancy of recent projects accomplished by the offeror to the scope of this contract for overall application to the performance confidence assessment ratings described hereinafter. The projects will include those submitted under the Specialized Experience Factor, as well as, from other sources described above. As stated in submission requirements for this factor, offerors shall not incorporate by reference into their proposal PPQs previously submitted for other RFPs; however, this does not preclude the Government from utilizing previously submitted PPQ information in the past performance evaluation. The relevancy rating is not a separate proposal rating but is only used in developing overall past performance confidence assessment rating assigned to the Past Performance Factor. The past performance relevancy ratings are described below:

• Very Relevant: Present/past performance effort involved essentially the same scope and magnitude of effort and complexities this solicitation requires.

• Relevant: Present/past performance effort involved similar scope and magnitude of effort and complexities this solicitation requires.

• Somewhat Relevant: Present/past performance effort involved some of the scope and magnitude of effort and complexities this solicitation requires.

• Not Relevant: Present/past performance effort involved little or none of the scope and magnitude of effort and complexities this solicitation requires.

7.2.3. The Government will next consider how well the offeror performed on the contracts. The Government will consider the currency and relevance of the information, source of the information, context of the data, and general trends in contractor performance. With respect to relevancy, past performance on projects with more relevance will typically be a stronger predictor of future success and have more influence on the past performance confidence assessment rating than past performance on projects of lesser relevance. The Government will target areas covered in the requirements of this proposal including records of conforming to quality of design or construction, schedule, cost control, customer satisfaction, level of support for such things as as-built documentation, O&M manuals, training, problem resolution for design or construction errors, warranty work, management of the work, subcontractor management (including timely payment to subcontractors or suppliers), relations between owner and designer or contractor, correcting design or construction errors, and safety. Owners/references may be asked to comment on these items. The Government places a higher value on projects, which provided particularly difficult or unique challenges and innovative methods the contractor used to resolve problems successfully. The rating for this factor will be expressed as a degree of confidence in the offeror’s ability to successfully accomplish the types of contract requirements anticipated under this solicitation. The rating system used for the performance confidence assessment is described below.

Performance Confidence Assessment:

Each offeror will be assigned one of the following ratings:

Substantial Confidence: Based on the offeror’s recent/relevant performance record, the Government has a high expectation that the offeror will successfully perform the required effort.

Satisfactory Confidence: Based on the offeror’s recent/relevant performance record, the Government has a reasonable expectation that the offeror will successfully perform the required effort.

Limited Confidence: Based on the offeror’s recent/relevant performance record, the Government has a low expectation that the offeror will successfully perform the required effort.

No Confidence: Based on the offeror’s recent/relevant performance record, the Government has no expectation that the offeror will be able to successfully perform the required effort.

Unknown Confidence (Neutral): No recent/relevant performance record is available or the offeror’s performance record is so sparse that no meaningful confidence assessment rating can be reasonably assigned.

7.2.4. Each entity (firm) will be rated on its own performance or that of its predecessor, if relevant. Past performance of a parent, sister or other affiliated company will not be considered if the offeror fails to demonstrate what resources of the parent, sister, or other affiliated company will be provided or relied upon or fails to demonstrate the existence of a contractual or meaningful relationship with the parent, sister or other affiliated company. Past performance under a previous business arrangement will not be considered relevant if the offeror’s role on the project is not considered relevant. If the Government does not obtain past performance information for the projects identified by the offeror and cannot establish a past performance record for the offeror through other sources, past performance will be rated neither favorably nor unfavorably. The performance confidence assessment will be considered “Unknown Confidence (Neutral)”.

8.0 TAB D – FACTOR 3 - ORGANIZATION AND MANAGEMENT

8.1. SUBMISSION REQUIREMENTS:

8.1.1. Provide a narrative and organizational chart that describes the offeror’s organization and the item below.

Limit the narrative to five (5) pages or less and the organizational chart to one 11” x 17” page.

8.1.2. Organization: Describe what firms will be utilized, their roles and responsibilities and any contractual arrangements that have been established. Clearly describe any teaming or joint venture arrangements, including a clear description of each firm’s roles and responsibilities on the project. The Offeror shall document unequivocal teaming arrangements with its design firms(s) (see Attachment 5). Include a simple organizational chart, illustrating the organization, including the name, position title and job location of key personnel. Identify the design firm(s) chosen for the project, if not to be self-performed. Describe the proposed management structure for the team, describing how the design and construction process will be managed and the authorities and the delegations of authority within the team. Resumes of individual team members are not required.

8.1.3. Self-Performed Work: Generally describe the items the offeror will self-perform to comply with the requirements in Section 00 72 00 for self-performed work (Reference FAR Clause 52.219-14, Limitations on Subcontracting).

8.2 EVALUATION CRITERIA:

8.2.1. Government will evaluate the responsibilities and lines of authority between the construction firm, design firm, and key subcontractors. The Government will evaluate the offeror’s approach to design coordination and review and the offeror’s approach to support during design, construction and after project turnover. The Offeror is required to select and commit to design firms to achieve an “acceptable” rating. Joint venture participant’s contribution to the organization should be commensurate with their skills and background.

8.2.2. Self-Performed Work: The Government will evaluate the Contractor’s resources to determine if it has the capability to self-perform the required amount of the project, in accordance with public policy to assure adequate interest in and supervision of all work.

9.0 PHASE 1 EVALUATION PROCEDURES

9.1. SOURCE SELECTION EVALUATION BOARD (SSEB)

9.1.1. The SSEB evaluation will consider the content of the proposal, proposal corrections and any information obtained from other sources, e.g. past performance information. The SSEB will not consider any proposal information incorporated by reference, except as expressly allowed by this solicitation.

9.2 EVALUATION

9.2.1. The SSEB will evaluate the proposals and assign a consensus rating for each evaluation factor. Offerors are cautioned to put forth their best efforts for the Phase 1 submission, and to furnish all information clearly to allow the Government to determine their performance capability. Offerors should not assume that they will have an opportunity to clarify or correct anything in their proposal after submitting it in response to Phase 1.

9.2.2. The Government reserves the right to allow proposal corrections, if deemed necessary to determine the most highly qualified offerors to shortlist for Phase 2.

9.2.3 Evaluation of Phase 1 Factors will be conducted in accordance with the Phase 1 criteria stated herein, Section 00 22 10. The Contracting Officer, taking into account the SSEB consensus ratings, will select up to 5 (five) most highly qualified offerors to short-list for participation in Phase 2 per FAR Part 36.303-1(b). The maximum number of offerors that will be selected for participation in Phase 2 will be five (5).

9.3 DEFINITIONS

9.3.1. Deficiency: A material failure of a proposal to meet a Government requirement or a combination of significant weaknesses in a proposal that increases the risk of unsuccessful contract performance to an unacceptable level. This also includes a proposal that implies or specifically offers a deviation below specified RFP criteria. The offeror may or may not have called the deviation to the Government’s attention. A deviation is a deficiency. The proposal must conform to the solicitation requirements for award.

9.3.2. Weakness: A flaw in the proposal that increases the risk of unsuccessful contract performance.

9.3.3. Significant Weakness: A flaw in the proposal that appreciably increases the risk of unsuccessful contract performance.

9.3.4. Strength: Any aspect of a proposal that, when judged against a stated evaluation criterion enhances the merit of the proposal or increases the probability of successful performance of the contract.

9.3.5. Significant Strength: A significant strength appreciably enhances the merit of a proposal or appreciably enhances the probability of successful contract performance.

9.3.6 Uncertainty: Any aspect of the proposal for which the intent of the offeror is unclear because there may be more than one way to interpret the offer or because inconsistencies in the offer indicate that there may be an error, omission, or mistake.

9.4 EVALUATION AND RATING SYSTEM

9.4.1. General: The Government will review the proposals and rate the quality of each evaluation factor and subfactor (if any). The SSEB will rate each proposal against the specified evaluation criteria in the Solicitation requirements and will compare proposals. After all proposals are rated by the SSEB, the Contracting Officer will compare the ratings and relative advantages and disadvantages of proposals against each other in order to determine which Offerors are the most highly qualified IAW FAR Part 36.303-1 under Phase 1 for participation in Phase 2.

9.4.2 Review Write-Up: The Government will support each rating with a narrative, separately listing all strengths or advantages, weaknesses or disadvantages, deficiencies, and required clarifications.

9.4.3 Rating System: After listing proposal strengths, weaknesses and deficiencies, the SSEB will assign an adjective rating of “Outstanding”, “Good”, “Acceptable”, “Marginal”, or “Unacceptable” to each factor and (except the Past Performance Factor), which reflect the Government's confidence in each offeror's ability, as demonstrated in its proposal, to perform the requirements stated in the RFP. The adjectival ratings shall be assigned, using the following criteria, which incorporate a proposal risk assessment:

9.4.3.1 Outstanding: Proposal meets requirements and indicates an exceptional approach and understanding of the requirements. Strengths far outweigh any weaknesses. Risk of unsuccessful performance is very low.

9.4.3.2 Good: Proposal meets requirements and indicates a thorough approach and understanding of the requirements. Proposal contains strengths which outweigh any weaknesses. Risk of unsuccessful performance is low.

9.4.3.3 Acceptable: Proposal meets requirements and indicates an adequate approach and understanding of the requirements. Strengths and weaknesses are offsetting or will have little or no impact on contract performance. Risk of unsuccessful performance is no worse than moderate.

9.4.3.4 Marginal: Proposal does not clearly meet requirements and has not demonstrated an adequate approach and understanding of the requirements. The proposal has one or more weaknesses which are not offset by strengths.

Risk of unsuccessful performance is high.

9.4.3.5 Unacceptable. Proposal does not meet requirements and contains one or more deficiencies. Proposal is unawardable.

8.0 EVALUATION PROCEDURES

1. 1 Those Offerors short-listed in Phase 1 will be invited via Solicitation Amendment to submit a Phase 2 proposal, as indicated below. The Government contemplates awarding up to (4) IDIQ multiple award task order contracts (MATOC) for Construction and Repairs of utilidors and related systems (which includes utilities); however, reserves the right to award more, less, or none at all. Under the resultant contracts, the Government will issue firm-fixed price (FFP) task orders. The Government will evaluate proposals in accordance with the criteria described herein and will utilize the FAR 15.101-1 tradeoff process to determine the proposals which represent the best value to the Government.

2.0 BASIS OF AWARD

The Contracting Officer contemplates awarding up to (4) IDIQ contracts to those responsible Phase 2 Offerors whose proposal the Source Selection Authority determines conforms to the solicitation, and represents the best value to the Government. All Phase 2 evaluation factors, other than price, when combined, are considered significantly more important than the price. There is no obligation to approach or match the cost limitation in the offer for the seed task order project. After the Government individually evaluates and rates each proposal, the Source Selection Authority will compare proposals to determine the best value proposal. 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 Source Selection Authority must determine that the added value of a more expensive proposal (within the cost limitation) would justify award to that Offeror. As Phase 1 is conducted in accordance with FAR 36.303-1 and evaluation ratings determine the most highly qualified offerors for Phase 2. The Phase 1 ratings do not transfer to the Phase 2 evaluation but stand on their own for Phase 1 only. The Phase 2 evaluation is conducted in accordance with FAR 15 and will be the process used to determine the best value proposals for award under Phase 2. Phase 2 submittal requirements and evaluation ratings are stated in this Section 00 22 11. The SSEB will evaluate the proposals and assign a consensus rating for each evaluation factor. Offerors are cautioned to put forth their best efforts for the Phase 2 submission, and to furnish all information clearly to allow the Government to determine the best proposal. Offerors should not assume that they will have an opportunity to clarify or correct anything in their proposal after submitting it in response to Phase 2.
