SECTION 00 22 00 - SUPPLEMENTARY INSTRUCTIONS

The following have been modified:

EVALUATION CRITERIA

PROPOSAL BASIS OF AWARD

GENERAL SUBMISSION REQUIREMENTS AND

INSTRUCTIONS, EVALUATIONS AND CONTRACT

AWARD

1. OVERVIEW

This action is a "Best Value" solicitation for the Design-Build Electronic Power System (Pave Paws) Repair at Beale AFB, CA. The Contracting Officer will award to the responsible Offeror whom the Source Selection Authority determines offers the best overall value to the

Government, considering all non-price factors described herein, and the proposed price of the project.

This solicitation utilizes a one-phase source selection process requiring one proposal submittal to include a non-price technical volume and a price volume. The selection process will consist of an evaluation of price and non-price factors.

2. BASIS OF AWARD

2.1 ELIGIBILITY FOR CONTRACT AWARD

In accordance with the requirements of Part 9 of the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR), no contract shall be entered into unless the Contracting Officer ensures that all requirements of law, executive orders, regulations, and all other applicable procedures, including clearances and approvals, have been met. This includes the FAR requirement that no award shall be made unless the contracting officer makes an affirmative determination of responsibility. To be determined responsible, a prospective contractor must meet the general standards in FAR Part 9 and any special standards set forth in the solicitation.

2.2 SOURCE SELECTION USING THE TRADE-OFF PROCESS

The Government will select the offer that represents the best value to the Government by using the tradeoff process described in FAR Part 15. This process permits tradeoffs between price and technical (“non-price”) factors and allows the Government to accept other than the lowest priced offer. The award decision will be based on a comparative analysis and an integrated assessment of proposals against all source selection criteria in the solicitation.

2.3 RELATIVE IMPORTANCE OF PRICE TO THE TECHNICAL EVALUATION

FACTORS

All non-price evaluation factors, when combined, are significantly more important than cost or price. All non-price factors are considered in descending order of importance. The Government is concerned with striking the most advantageous balance between technical merit (“quality”) and cost to the Government (i.e., the price). If competing technical proposals are determined to be essentially equal, price could become the controlling factor.

3. INSTRUCTIONS

3.1 GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS

3.1.1 Media, Page Size, Margins, Fonts, and Page Limitations

Submit only the hard-copy paper documents and electronic files specifically authorized in this section. Do not include links to information on websites in lieu of incorporating the information physically into the proposal. Except where another size is specifically authorized for a specific submission, use only 8 1/2” x 11” paper. Use at least 1 inch margins, which may include headers and footers. Do not justify the right margin. Ensure that all text and graphics are clearly legible.

For submissions with page limitations, the pages will be counted as follows: One side of the paper is one page; information on both the back and front of one sheet of paper will be counted as two pages. Where authorized, a foldout sheet will count as one page. Pages furnished for organizational purposes only, such as a “Table of Contents” or divider tabs, are excluded from page limitations.

3.1.2 Proposal Binding

The preferred method for assembling proposals is a method that enables the rapid insertion or deletion of pages such as three ring binders. Ensure recommended capacity is not exceeded and that pages turn freely. Do not use spring clamps, spiral binding systems, or heat binding systems.

3.1.3 Conditioning of Offer

Do not include exceptions to the terms and conditions of the solicitation in either the technical or price proposal volumes. Inclusion of any standard company terms and conditions that conflict with the terms and conditions of the solicitation may result in a determination that the offer is unacceptable and thus ineligible for award. Resolve questions about the terms and conditions or technical requirements of the solicitation prior to submission of the offer; see “Inquiries”, located in Section 00 21 16, for points of contact. Notwithstanding the above, the offeror must clearly describe in the proposal cover sheet submitted with the price volume any exceptions, within the offer, to the contractual and/or technical terms and conditions of the solicitation.

3.1.4 Restrictions on Offeror-Provided Information

“Confidential” projects cannot be submitted to demonstrate capability unless all of the information required for evaluation as specified herein can nonetheless be provided to the Government as part of the offeror’s technical proposal. Offerors that include in their proposals information that they do not want disclosed to the public for any purpose, or used by the Government except for evaluation purposes, must clearly mark the information in accordance with FAR 52.215-1, “Instructions to Offeror – Competitive Acquisition”, paragraph (e), “Restriction on disclosure and use of data”. Files shall not contain classified data.

3.2 GENERAL PROPOSAL PREPARATION

The proposal shall be submitted as summarized below and as required by the specifications.

Each offeror must submit a proposal consisting of both a “price” volume and a “technical” volume. The price volume includes the signed offer and the offeror’s proposed prices. The price volume must include one original and one copy. The technical volume includes all required information relating to the “non-price” evaluation factors. The technical volume must include one original and four copies. The two volumes must be submitted as separate, physically distinct volumes. Both volumes must be received at the location shown in Block 8 of Standard Form 1442, not later than the date and time specified in Block 13 of Standard Form 1442. The information in the two volumes is evaluated separately and independently. Therefore, all information intended by the offeror to be evaluated as part of the price volume must be submitted as part of the price volume. All information intended by the offeror to be evaluated as part of the technical volume must be submitted as part of the technical volume. Do not merely cross-reference similar material between the technical and price volumes.

Tab 6 of the Price Proposal: 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 Proposal: Pre-Award Survey Information.

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 (e.g., 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.

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

3.2.4 EVALUATION OF THE PRICE PROPOSAL

Price to the Government will be evaluated and considered but will not be scored or combined with other aspects of the proposal evaluation. The proposed price will be analyzed for reasonableness. It may also be analyzed to determine whether it reflects a clear understanding of the requirements; and is consistent with the offeror’s Technical Proposal. Additionally, all offers will be analyzed for unbalanced pricing.

Information required to be submitted in the Price Proposal volume in addition to the executed SF 1442 with acknowledgement of amendments and the completed pricing schedule will be used to determine the offeror’s eligibility for contract award in accordance with paragraph 2.1 above

4.2 PREFACE – PRIME CONTRACTOR/KEY SUBCONTRACTOR INTRODUCTION

a. The Offeror is required to propose a specific project team including key subcontractors for evaluation in response to this Request for Proposals. For purposes of this procurement, the terms “key subcontractors” are used to refer only to the prospective subcontractors who will perform 25% or more work on the design and/or construction.

b. Provide a brief introduction narrative. Identify and provide the name, DUNS number, address, point of contact e- mail address, and a brief description of the role and authority of each firm that will be involved in performance of this contract at the prime contractor and key subcontractor level. If the proposed prime contractor is a Joint Venture, describe the relationship, role, and authority (to include management authority) of each firm. (Note: If a proposed firm has branch offices, provide information for each individual branch office that will perform work under the contract with its own workforce.) List the major work elements to be self-performed by the offeror’s in-house work force, the major work elements to be performed by each key subcontractor, and any other major work to be subcontracted to other contractors.

The purpose of this narrative is to provide a brief introduction for information purposes.

However, if applicable, the government reserves the right to consider information contained therein throughout the evaluation of the other factors.

c. In the case of contractor team arrangements involving a prime contractor and subcontractor(s), where the prime contractor submits the proposal in response to this RFP, the prime contractor must have completed at least two of the total number of projects submitted for Factor 4 for consideration in response to the past performance requirements of this RRP. Factor 1, Experience and Capability. Past performance reviews submitted for Factor 4 must be for the same projects submitted for Factor 1. If information about a subcontractor is submitted and considered during the evaluation, the expectation is that this subcontractor will perform this work. Before utilizing another subcontractor for this work, the Government must consent.

d. An Offeror that relies upon the performance history of a member or members of a proposed contractor team arrangement will be expected to maintain that arrangement during performance of any contract awarded to that Offeror under this RFP. As a part of their proposal, the Offeror must provide a contractor team agreement signed by all parties, identifying the legal name(s) of all entities and describing the nature of each entity’s relationship (teaming/partnering, joint venture, etc.) and its role on this project. A letter of commitment may be used to demonstrate this arangement. Past Performance information of other than the Offeror will not be considered without the teaming arrangements. In the case of joint ventures, at least one project will be submitted from each member to demonstrate past experience. (Team agreement information will not count in the page limitation).

e. An AE Firm may be on more than one contractor's team however a teaming arrangements must be provided with the solicitation and that team will be required for the duration of the project.

An IDIQ contract may be used however task order(s) shall be submitted in lieu of the complete IDIQ. Task orders may be combined as a "single project" if the projects were the same (ie: AE completed the 35% design for project X and completed the 100% design for project X).

The submission is limited to two (2) 8-1/2”x11” pages for narrative. The Technical Proposal is to be submitted in one hard “original” and five (5) copies. In addition, submit one complete copy of the technical proposal on Compact Disk (CD).

4.5 FACTOR 2 – TECHNICAL APPROACH

Provide a narrative that describes the offeror’s Design-Build team and intended technical approach to executing the design-build contract per the detailed requirements herein. Clearly, but concisely describe the offeror’s Design-Build team, and how members of the team will work collaboratively to ensure timely, quality completion of the project. The Technical Approach Narrative shall address all of the following:

Organization: Describe the firms that compose the offeror’s Design-Build team, their resources and how their resources will be utilized, their roles and responsibilities, and any contractual arrangements that have been established. Present a matrix of responsibilities for each firm in executing the key design and construction activities for each major feature of the project.

Describe the proposed management structure for the Design-Build team explaining how the design and construction process will be managed and the authorities and the delegations of authority within the Design-Build team.

Collaborative Approach for Design-Build: Describe interactions and communications within the Design-Build team and with the Corps of Engineers during the design. Describe the role of the construction team members during design. Describe the role and interaction of the design team with the construction team during construction, addressing, at a minimum, design during construction, including control and approval of revisions to the accepted design; requests for information; shop drawing and submittal reviews and approvals; progress meetings; site visits, if any; contract completion, closeout, as-built and completion documentation.

Technical Design Consideration: Describe the technical considerations and approach of the two basic design configurations to be considered - Woodward centric design vs. the PLC centric design. Explain which design methodology the Design-Build team will be utilizing and how the proposed design system is a better value to the Government than the other design methodology.

“Better-value” to the Government shall be demonstrated through the Contractor’s concise explanation and/or discussion of their proposed design configuration, which may include attributes of better reliability, maintainability, durability, adaptability, advanced technology, quality, sustainability, life cycle costs, and performance while meeting the requirement. The contractor’s explanation shall be based upon facts and supposition, and must be convincing by comparison through contrasting of the 2 design configurations to the Government that one design configuration is of benefit over the other.

Quality Control: Describe the Design-Build team’s quality control approach, corporate systems and capabilities to maintain quality control of the design and construction. Describe the proposed quality control organization, including the proposed staffing plan. Provide specific information on how you will manage design quality control, track design evolution and changes during design to meet the schedule and to facilitate Government reviews. Provide information on how you will handle internal and external requests for information, shop drawings, submittal reviews, progress meetings, site visits, contract completion, closeout, as-built, and completion documentation. In addition to the required designer-of-record roles specified within the RFP for maintaining integrity of the design, describe any other DOR involvement in the quality control process, if any. There is no need to submit a quality control plan as the successful offeror will provide that after award. Describe the offeror’s system to control and track revisions to the design.

4.6 FACTOR 3 – PROJECT SCHEDULE

The offeror shall develop a proposed construction schedule (i.e., GANTT (NOT a Pert Chart 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 and/or commissioning.

The importance of the construction schedule should be highlighted by certain critical project factors: obtaining all necessary approvals on schedule and pre-work plans, project climate, weather sensitive work, and phasing constraints.

The proposed schedule must indicate the starting and completion times of all major elements of work beginning with the notice to proceed. The schedule shall be as realistic as possible, demonstrating the offeror’s ability to propose a schedule that identifies all major elements of work for this project, meets the Government’s requirements, and is obtainable. For the purposes of the proposal submittal, assume a Notice to Proceed (NTP) date of 15 April 2018. The Contractor’s schedule shall show phasing of the work (i.e. identify the 5 phases of work specified in the Statement of Work {Attachment 1}).

Describe the offeror’s schedule control capabilities and any systems the offeror will use to plan design and construction activities. Explain how the schedule will be used to manage design and construction. Discuss internal procedures for handling delays to minimize time growth. Include any consideration of fast-tracking design and construction. Discuss how prime plans to streamline construction, manage labor and any other resource constraints to reduce cost and achieve timely project completion.

The narrative shall be limited to 2 (two) 8.5”x11” pages while physical schedule must be on 11”x17” paper.

Evaluation Criteria:

The offeror will be rated on an adjectival rating. The Government will evaluate the offeror’s ability to schedule and integrate the design and/or major work elements, construction and close out activities. The Government will evaluate the offeror’s approach to the scheduling /phasing of the major activities appears reasonable, realistic, and achievable which will include appropriate consideration of recognizable constraints including material and equipment lead times and the impacts on construction activities of adverse weather typical for the construction site. Proposed schedule and approach that clearly reflect an understanding of the complexity of this project will be evaluated more favorably.

ADJECTIVAL RATINGS

This rating scale will be used in conjunction with Factors 1-3.

ADJECTIVE DEFINITION AND CRITERIA

Outstanding Proposal indicates an exceptional approach and understanding of the requirements and contains multiple strengths, and risk of unsuccessful performance is low.

Good Proposal indicates a thorough approach and understanding of the requirements and contains at least one strength, and risk of unsuccessful performance is low to moderate.

Acceptable Proposal meets requirements and indicates an adequate approach and understanding of the requirements, and risk of unsuccessful performance is no worse than moderate.

Marginal Proposal has not demonstrated an adequate approach and understanding of the requirements, and/or risk of unsuccessful performance is high.

Unacceptable

Proposal does not meet requirements of the solicitation, and thus, contains one or more deficiencies, and/or risk of unsuccessful performance is unacceptable. Proposal is unawardable.

Risk Definitions

Low Proposal may contain weakness(es) which have little potential to cause disruption of schedule, increased cost or degradation of performance. Normal contractor effort and normal Government monitoring will likely be able to overcome any difficulties.

Moderate Proposal contains a significant weakness or combination of weaknesses which may potentially cause disruption of schedule, increased cost or degradation of performance. Special contractor emphasis and close Government monitoring will likely be able to overcome difficulties.

High Proposal contains a significant weakness or combination of weaknesses which is likely to cause significant disruption of schedule, increased cost or degradation of performance. Is unlikely to overcome any difficulties, even with special contractor emphasis and close Government monitoring.

4.7 FACTOR 4 – PAST PERFORMANCE

The Offeror shall submit past performance information on the projects submitted in Factor 1, Experience and Capability. The Offeror shall provide completed performance evaluations for the submitted projects that demonstrate the Offeror’s performance on recent and relevant electronic system upgrade projects. The Offeror shall provide formal performance evaluation if they are available.

Formal performance evaluations are those that are similar to the Department of Defense Performance Evaluation (Construction) Form DD2626.

In addition to formal evaluations or if a formal evaluation is unavailable, the Offeror shall obtain the information using the Past Performance Questionnaire included at the end of this section. The Past Performance Questionnaire included in the solicitation is provided for the Offeror or its team members to submit to the client for each project the Offeror includes in its proposal for this factor. Ensure correct phone numbers and email addresses are provided for the client point of contact. Completed Past Performance Questionnaires should be submitted with your proposal.

Offerors shall not incorporate by reference into their proposal PPQs previously submitted for other RFPs. This does not preclude the Government from utilizing previously submitted PPQ information in the past performance evaluation.

Also include performance recognition documents received in the last ten (10) years such as awards, award fee determinations, customer letters of recommendation, and any other forms of performance recognition received for the projects submitted in Factor 1.

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), using all CAGE/DUNS numbers of team members (partnership, joint venture, teaming arrangement, or parent company/subsidiary/affiliate) identified in the Offeror’s proposal, inquiries of owner representative(s), Federal Awardee Performance and Integrity Information System (FAPIIS), Electronic Subcontract Reporting System (eSRS), 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.

Evaluation Criteria: The evaluation of past performance will focus on two elements: the recency and relevance of the Offeror’s past performance information:

Recency is a measure of time that has elapsed since the past performance referenced occurred. It is expressed as a time period during which past performance references are considered relevant.

Relevancy is a measure of the extent of similarity between the service/support effort, complexity, dollar value, contract type, and subcontract/teaming or other comparable attributes of past performance examples and the solicitation requirements; and a measure of the likelihood that the past performance is an indicator of future performance.

Quality of Products or Services. The third aspect of the past performance evaluation is to establish the overall quality. The past performance evaluation conducted in support of a current source selection does not establish, create, or change the existing record and history of the offeror’s past performance on past contracts; rather, the past performance evaluation process gathers information from customers on how well the offeror performed those past contracts. Requirements for considering history of small business utilization are outlined at FAR 15.304(c)(3)(ii) and DFARS 215.305(a)(2). The Past Performance Evaluation Team will review all past performance information collected and determine the quality of the offeror’s performance, general trends, and usefulness of the information and incorporate these into the performance confidence assessment (see paragraph 3.1.3.3). A separate quality assessment rating is not required; rather, the past performance confidence assessment rating is based on the offeror’s overall record of recency, relevancy, and quality of performance.

Overall past performance will be rated in terms of how likely there is a performance risk to the Government, that is, the confidence performance rating the greater the expectation that the Offeror will successfully confidence assessment rating. If an offeror has no record of relevant past performance, or if the information on the offeror’s past performance is not available, the offer must state that fact. The offeror may be rated as unknown confidence/neutral.

Past performance in Federal Government work may be rated more favorably than work outside the Federal Government. Additionally, work for the US Army Corps of Engineers or Beale AFB work may be rated more favorably over work with other Federal Government agencies.

Rating Definition 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.

Performance Confidence Assessment - Performance confidence is the confidence associated with an Offeror's likelihood of success in performing the solicitation's requirements as indicated by that Offeror's record of current or past performance. Performance Confidence Assessment:

In conducting a performance confidence assessment, each Offeror shall be assigned one of the ratings in accordance with the table below. See Reference FAR 15.305(2) for information on assigning an unknown/neutral confidence rating.

Rating Description 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.

Neutral Confidence 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. The offeror may not be evaluated favorably or unfavorably on the factor of past performance.

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.
