(End of Proposal Cover Sheet)

Tab 2 of the Price Volume: SF 1442; Acknowledgement of Amendments; Joint Venture Agreement.

The Standard Form (SF) 1442 must be completed by the offeror and duly executed with an original signature by the official(s) identified in the proposal cover sheet as authorized to bind the offeror in accordance with FAR 4.102, which includes specific instructions pertaining to individuals, partnerships, corporations, Joint Venture participants, and agents. Include the offeror’s DUNS number in block 14 of the SF 1442, along with the offeror’s address. All amendments must be acknowledged in accordance with the instructions on the Standard Form 30, Amendment.

Submit the completed Pricing Schedule (Section 00010) with the offeror’s proposed contract prices inserted in the appropriate spaces. Prices must be proposed for all contract line items. Unit prices must be extended to the actual “dollar and cents” amounts (i.e., to two decimal places). Do not round off the extended prices to the nearest dollar.

Check your pricing submission very carefully for mathematical and clerical errors prior to submission. Any qualification of pricing may render the proposal unacceptable and therefore not eligible for award. (Note: Please use document protectors in lieu of punching holes in the completed “original” pricing schedule.)

The offeror must have electronically completed the annual representations and certifications on the “Online Representations and Certifications Application” (ORCA) website in accordance with FAR 52.204-8 (provided in full text in Section 00600). The offeror is responsible for ensuring that these on-line Representations and Certifications are updated as necessary to reflect changes, but at least annually to ensure that they are kept current, accurate and complete. Additionally, the offeror must also complete and return the “Representations, Certifications, and Other Statements of Offerors” included in Section 00600 of the solicitation. If the offeror is a Joint Venture, all participants must separately complete both the ORCA Representations and Certifications and Section 00600.

Tab 6 of the Price Volume: Bid Guarantee.

All offerors must submit a bid guarantee, (e.g., Standard Form 24, Bid Bond) which complies with the requirements of FAR 28.101 Bid Guarantees, and any Defense and Army supplements thereto.

Tab 7 of the Price Volume: Pre-Award Survey Information.

a. The contracting officer is required to make an affirmative pre-award determination of the prospective contractor’s responsibility in accordance with the mandatory requirements of Part 9 of the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) and its supplements. The contracting officer must have sufficient information available to determine that a prospective contractor meets these minimum standards. Therefore, the offeror is requested to provide the pre-award survey information described below with its price proposal:

(1) The completed Construction Contractor Data Form with Supplemental Schedules A-C (see format which follows). If the offeror is a large multi-segmented business concerns, the data provided on the supplemental schedules may be limited to information that directly pertains to the specific segment of the business concern (i.e., the division, group, unit, etc.) proposed to perform work under the prospective contract with its own work force. If the offer is being submitted by a Joint Venture, submit a separate form for each Joint Venture participant. The offeror may submit pre-award survey information in another format, provided that the information furnished is substantially the same as that which would be furnished on the Construction Contractor Data Form and its supplemental schedules.

(2) Current financial statements. If the financial statement is more than 60 days old, submit a certificate stating that the firm's financial condition is substantially the same, or, if not the same, state the changes that have taken place. If a Joint Venture, provide this information for each participant in the Joint Venture.

(3) Banking information. Provide letters from banks or other financial institutions with which the contractor conducts business. The letters should contain information about your firm's accounts, loans, lines of credit, etc. The Government is interested in financial stability, timely payments, the length and nature of the relationship between the firm and the financial institution, and the firm's financial ability to perform the contract. The letters should also provide the name and telephone number of the bank representative the Government may contact. If a Joint Venture, provide this information for each Joint Venture participant.

b. The Government will treat the pre-award survey information submitted by the offeror as proprietary.

Tab 8 of the Price Volume: Subcontracting Plan.

a. All offerors submitting offers with a total value (including all options) exceeding $1,000,000 that are not small businesses are required to submit a subcontracting plan. The plan must be prepared in accordance with Public Law 95-507 and the following instructions and format, which conform to FAR 52.219-9(d)(1) through (d)(11) and include the required statutory elements as described in FAR 19.704 and the additional requirements of DFARS

219.704 and AFARS 5119.704. Evaluation of the subcontracting plan by the Government will be as prescribed in FAR 19.705 (and its supplements).

b. Do not just address the following issues in short; follow the guidance of FAR 52.219-9 in its entirety. For example, paragraph 11 below asks for a discussion of records; the plan should address all records as described in FAR 52.219-9(d)(11)(i) through (vi).

c. In accordance with FAR 19.704 if the contract contains options, the cumulative value of the basic contract and all options is considered in determining whether a subcontracting plan is necessary. Once it has been decided if a plan is necessary, the subcontracting plan shall contain separate parts, one for the basic contract and one for each option.

d. In other words, it is necessary to address planned subcontracting dollars and percentages of total to be awarded to small, small disadvantaged, HUBZone small, women-owned small, veteran-owned small, service-disabled veteran-owned small, Hispanic servicing institutions and tribal council universities, HBCU/MIs, and qualified nonprofit agencies for the blind and other severely disabled separately for the basic contract period and each option period or option item. Therefore, paragraphs 1 and 2 below must be prepared separately for the base period and each option period/item. All other parts of the subcontracting plan only need to be addressed once.

e. If the subcontracting plan's proposed subcontracting goals do not meet the Corps of Engineers' subcontracting goals, the subcontracting plan must be submitted with a full explanation of the reasons for the lesser goals established by the plan. A small disadvantaged business goal of less than five percent must be approved one level above the contracting officer (DFARS 219.705-4).

Subcontracts awarded to small disadvantaged businesses, HUBZone small businesses, women-owned small businesses, veteran-owned small businesses, service-disabled veteran-owned small businesses, Hispanic servicing institutions, and tribal council universities, HBCU/MIs, and qualified nonprofit agencies for the blind and other severely disabled count toward the overall small business goal.

HBCU/MIs are counted as a subset of the small disadvantaged goal. The Corps of Engineers has not been assigned a set goal for, Hispanic servicing institution and tribal council universities, HBCU/MIs or qualified nonprofit agencies for the blind and other severely disabled.

b. In accordance with DFARS 219.703, qualified nonprofit agencies for the blind and other severely disabled that have been approved by the Committee for Purchase from People Who are Blind or Severely Disabled under the Javits-Wagner-O'Day (41 U.S.C. 46-48) are eligible to participate in the program as a result of 10 U.S.C. 2410d and section 9077 of Pub. L. 102-396 and similar sections in subsequent Defense Appropriations Acts. Under this authority subcontracts awarded to such entities may be counted toward the prime contractor’s small business subcontracting goal.)

6. A statement as to whether or not the offeror included indirect costs in establishing the subcontracting goals, and if so, a description of the method used to determine the proportionate share of indirect costs to be incurred with: (i) small business concerns, (ii) small disadvantaged business concerns, (iii) HUBZone small business concerns, (iv) women-owned small business concerns, (v) veteran-owned small business concerns, (vi) service-disabled veteran-owned small business concerns, (vii) Hispanic Servicing Institutions and Tribal Council Universities, (viii) HBCUs and MIs, and (ix) qualified nonprofit agencies for the blind and other severely disabled.

00120-12

9. I do herewith assure that this concern will include the clause at FAR 52.219-8 entitled "Utilization of Small Business Concerns" in all subcontracts which offer further subcontracting opportunities and will require all subcontractors (except small business concerns) who receive subcontracts in excess of $550,000 ($1,000,000 for construction of any public facility) to adopt a plan similar to the plan agreed to by this concern and in consonance with the FAR clause 52.219-9.

10. I also assure that this concern will (i) cooperate in any studies or surveys as may be required, (ii) submit periodic reports in order to allow the Government to determine the extent of compliance by the offeror with the subcontracting plan, and (iii) ensure that the subcontractors under this contract agree to submit periodic reports according to FAR 52.219.9.

11. Provide a description of the types of records the offeror will maintain to demonstrate procedures which have been adopted to comply with the requirements and goals set forth in the plan, including the establishment of source lists; and a description of its efforts to locate small business, small disadvantaged business, HUBZone small business, women-owned small business, veteran-owned small business, service-disabled veteran-owned small business, Hispanic Servicing Institutions and Tribal Council Universities, HBCUs and MIs, and qualified nonprofit agencies for the blind and other severely disabled.

The records shall include at least the following (on a plant-wide or company-wide basis, unless otherwise indicated):

a. Source lists (e.g., PASS), guides, and other data that identify small business, small disadvantaged business, HUBZone small business, women-owned small business, veteran-owned small business, service-disabled veteran-owned small business, Hispanic Servicing Institutions and Tribal Council Universities, HBCUs and MIs), and qualified nonprofit agencies for the blind and other severely disabled.

Discuss the extent to which the offeror has historically been successful in complying with the requirements of the clauses at FAR 52.219-8, Utilization of Small Business Concerns, and 52.219-9, Small Business Subcontracting Plan, in establishing realistic yet challenging goals and show evidence of ability to achieve the goals. Information addressing past performance on DoD contracts evidencing achievement of established subcontracting goals will be in the form of the Individual Subcontracting Report (formerly the SF294) and the Summary Subcontracting Report (formerly the SF295). Offerors who have had no prior Department of Defense contracts from which to assess past performance will not be penalized.

Tab 3 of the Technical Volume: Factor 3 – Technical Approach

1. General.

a. The information provided under this tab will be used in conjunction with the evaluation of the offeror’s construction approach and method to construct this project to determine the offeror’s ability to properly schedule and execute this project to ensure timely completion and quality product. The approach and method must be in sufficient detail to clearly demonstrate (1) the offeror’s understanding of the principal components of work described in the project specifications and drawings and (2) the offeror’s understanding of the site and other conditions that could impact schedule.

2. Project Schedule.

a. Provide a hard copy of the NAS Project Schedule or GANTT chart (not a Pert Chart), broken down to the “Feature of Work” level, that graphically illustrates the proposed integration, scheduling, and phasing of the major features on the critical and near-critical path for this project, including final close-out. The importance of the construction schedule is highlighted by certain critical project factors; project climate, weather sensitive work, and phasing constraints.

b. The schedule is to include activities on the near critical and critical paths.

c. Clearly indicate the durations of the principle components of work with anticipated start and finish dates. For the purpose of this pre-award design and construction sequence plan only, assume a Notice to Proceed (NTP) date of October 1, 2010.

d. Propose the period of performance to complete all design and construction on this project after Notice to Proceed, inclusive of all review periods and Government phasing requirements specified. If offer is accepted, the Government will incorporate the period of performance into the resultant contract.

e. As the NAS project schedule that is required to be included as part of the Technical Approach is a preliminary schedule for pre-award evaluation purposes only, the actual NAS project schedule submitted in the offeror’s Technical Proposal will not be incorporated into the contract. Therefore, the Government may at its discretion consider minor irregularities to be weaknesses in the proposal, rather than deficiencies. Nonetheless, the successful offeror will be required to submit a schedule after contract award that fully complies with all of the requirements of Section 01 32 01.00 10, whether or not all pre-award discrepancies were noted or corrected during negotiations.

f. The project schedule must not exceed the contract performance period specified on the SF 1442. (Should the offeror discover during proposal preparation that the project cannot be completed within the required contract performance period, please notify the Contracting Officer immediately.)

g. The Government’s requirement is that contract performance must be completed within the number of days of Notice to Proceed stated on the SF 1442.

h. Formatting and Other Restrictions:

(1). There is not a page limitation for this submission; however, pages must not exceed 11” x 17” in size. Ensure the font size is legible so each activity and its duration can be read.

(2). Number line items on the project schedule for easy reference.

(3). If the offeror is proposing a shortened performance period, the technical proposal must also include the offeror’s statement of compliance with 10 U.S.C. 2858 using the format provided

i. Evaluation Criteria.

00120 - 16

(1) Proposed schedule that clearly reflects an understanding of the complexity of this project will be evaluated more favorably. Schedule and approach demonstrating the Offeror’s ability to schedule and integrate the major work elements, construction and close-out activities critical to meeting the contract performance schedule specified in the solicitation will be evaluated more favorably.

(2) Offerors will receive a rating of no lower than “Marginal”, as long as the offeror has made a reasonable attempt to respond to the proposal submission requirements.
