About this file

This amendment modifies a solicitation for a design-build project to install a 2 megawatt solar photovoltaic array at Tooele Army Depot in Utah. The project objectives are to offset the depot's energy consumption from the local utility by generating electrical power using solar panels, with any excess power sent to the local grid via an existing net metering station. Key changes include updating specifications for employee identification and work hours, and revising the structured approach used to determine a fair and reasonable profit percentage for construction contracts. The solicitation is issued by the Department of the Army Corps of Engineers Sacramento District for responses due by the date specified.

If employee identification is required for security or other reasons, the Contractor shall be responsible for furnishing to each employee and for requiring each employee engaged on the work to display such identification as may be approved and directed by the Contracting Officer. All prescribed identification shall immediately be delivered to the Contracting Officer, for cancellation upon the release of any employee. When required by the Contracting Officer, the Contractor shall obtain and submit fingerprints of all persons employed or to be employed on the project.

MINIMUM INSURANCE

In accordance with FAR 52.228-5, Insurance-Work on a Government Installation, the Contractor shall procure and thereafter maintain during the entire period of his performance under this contract the following minimum insurance.

Type and Amount

Worker's compensation and employer's liability: At least $100,000 General liability: Bodily injury liability of at least $500,000 per occurrence Automobile liability: Coverage of at least $200,000 per person; $500,000 per occurrence for bodily injury and $20,000 per occurrence for property damage.

SAFETY AND HEALTH REQUIREMENTS MANUAL

a. The contractor shall comply with all provisions of the U.S. Army Engineers Safety and Health Requirements Manual, EM 385-1-1.

b. The Internet URL for EM 385-1-1, entitled “Safety and Health Requirements Manual” is:

http://www.usace.army.mil/SafetyandOccupationalHealth/SafetyandHealthRequirementsManual.aspx

c. Whenever the Contracting Officer becomes aware of any noncompliance with these safety and health requirements or any condition which poses a serious or imminent danger to the health or safety of the public or Government personnel, the Contracting Officer shall notify the Contractor orally, with written confirmation, and request immediate initiation of corrective action. This notice, when delivered to the Contractor or the Contractor's representative at the work site, shall be deemed sufficient notice of the noncompliance and that corrective action is required. After receiving the notice, the Contractor shall immediately take corrective action. If the Contractor fails or refuses to promptly take corrective action, the Contracting Officer may issue an order stopping all or part of the work until satisfactory corrective action has been taken. The Contractor shall not be entitled to an equitable adjustment of the contract price or extension of the performance schedule based on any stop work order issued under this authority.

WORK DAYS AND HOURS:

http://www.usace.army.mil/SafetyandOccupationalHealth/SafetyandHealthRequirementsManual.aspx

a. Federal law (5 U.S.C. 6103) establishes the following public holidays for Federal employees. When a holiday falls on a Saturday, the holiday is generally observed on the preceding Friday. When a holiday falls on a Sunday, the holiday is generally observed on the following Monday. Further information pertaining to Federal holidays is available at http://www.opm.gov/fedhol.

b. The normal work days and hours for this project will be 4-10 hour shifts, Monday through Friday Thursday, excluding the observation of federal holidays, from 7 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. Access to the work site may be restricted to these hours and days. Work during other than normal hours and days must be coordinated in advance with the Administrative Contracting Officer.

ALTERNATE STRUCTURED APPROACH TO WEIGHTED GUIDELINE METHOD FOR CONSTRUCTION

CONTRACTS:

The following alternate structured approach shall be used for all fixed-price construction contract actions.

Factor Rate Weight Value Degree of risk 20 Relative difficulty of work 15 Size of job 15 Period of performance 15 Contractor's investment 5 Assistance by Government 5 Subcontracting 25

Total 100%

Based on the circumstances of the procurement action, each of the above factors shall be weighted from .03 to .12 as indicated below. “Value” shall be obtained by multiplying the rate by the weight. The Value column when totaled indicates the fair and reasonable profit percentage under the circumstances of the particular procurement. The profit percentage should be multiplied by the total contract costs, including general and administrative costs.

(1) Degree of risk. Where the work involves no risk or the degree of risk is very small, the weighting should be .03;

as the degree of risk increases, the weighting should be increased up to a maximum of .12. Lump sum items shall generally have a higher weight than unit price items; other things to consider include the nature of the work and where it is to be performed. Consider the portion of the work to be done by subcontractors, amount and type of labor included in costs, whether the negotiation is before or after performance of the work, etc. Modifications settled before the fact have much greater risk than those settled after the fact. A weight of .03 is appropriate for after the fact equitable adjustments and/or settlements.

(2) Relative Difficulty of Work: If the work is difficult and complex, the weight should be .12 and should be proportionately reduced to .03 on the simplest of jobs. This factor is tied in to some extent with the degree of risk.

Some other things to consider are the nature of the work, by whom it is to be done (i.e., subcontractors, consultants), what is the time schedule.

(3) Size of Job. Work of $100,000 or less shall be weighted at .12. Work estimated between $100,000 and $5,000,000 shall be proportionately weighted from .12 to .05. Work from $5,000,000 to $10,000,000 shall be weighted at .04. Work in excess of $10,000,000 shall be weighted at .03. It should be noted that control of fixed expenses generally improves with increased job magnitude.

(4) Period of Performance. Work not to exceed one month is to be proportionately weighted at .03. Durations between one month and 24 months are to be proportionately weighted between .03 and .12. Work in excess of 24 months is to be weighted at .12.

(5) Contractor's Investment. To be weighted from .03 to .12 on the basis of below average, average and above average. Things to consider include amount of subcontracting, Government-furnished property or data such as surveys, soil tests, method of making progress payments, and any mobilization payment items.

http://www.opm.gov/fedhol

(6) Assistance by Government. To be weighted from .12 to .03 on the basis of average to above average. Consider use of Government-owned property, equipment and facilities, and expediting assistance.

(7) Subcontracting. To be weighted inversely proportional to the amount of subcontracting. Where 80% or more of the work is to be subcontracted use .03. The weighting should be increased proportionately to .12 where all the work is performed by the contractor's own forces

SUBCONTRACTING WITH SMALL, SMALL DISADVANTAGED AND WOMEN-OWNED SMALL

BUSINESSES:

Contractors are cautioned that failure of any Contractor to comply in good faith with the contract clauses pertaining to (1) Utilization of Small Business Concerns or (2) Small, Small Disadvantaged and Women-Owned Small Business Subcontracting Plans, when applicable, will be a material breach of contract. In order to assist contractors in developing a source list of small, small disadvantaged and/or women-owned small business concerns you are encouraged to contact your minority contractor associates, the local Minority Business Development Agency and the appropriate General Business Service Centers in your Standard Metropolitan Statistical Area. Contractors may obtain addresses of these sources from:

US Army Engineer District, Sacramento ATTN: Deputy for Small Business

1325 J Street, 9th Floor Sacramento, California 95814-2922

HAZARDOUS MATERIALS DELIVERED UNDER THIS CONTRACT:

(a) If any hazardous materials will be delivered under this contract (see Section 00 45 00, FAR 52.223-3, and DFARS 252.223-7001), the Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) for locally purchased, nonstandard stock hazardous material will be submitted to the Corps of Engineers Contracting Officer or Contracting Officer's Representative. For all other materials, the MSDS will also be submitted to U.S. Army Environmental Hygiene Agency, ATTN: HSE-OI, Aberdeen Proving Grounds MD 21010.

(b) Hazardous material is defined in Federal Standard No. 313, sold by the General Services Administration Specifications Unit (3FBP-W), 7th & D Streets, SW, Washington DC 20407.

EQUIPMENT OWNERSHIP AND OPERATING EXPENSE SCHEDULE

(a) This statement shall become operative only for negotiated contracts where cost or pricing data is requested, and for modifications to sealed bid or negotiated contracts where cost or pricing data is requested. This clause does not apply to terminations. See 52.249-5000, Basis for Settlement of Proposals, and FAR Part 49.

(b) Allowable cost for CONSTRUCTION and marine plant and equipment in sound workable condition owned or controlled and furnished by a contractor or subcontractor at any tier shall be based on actual cost data for each piece of equipment or groups of similar serial and series for which the Government can determine both ownership and operating costs from the contractor's accounting records. When both ownership and operating costs cannot be determined for any piece of equipment or groups of similar serial or series equipment from the contractor's accounting records, costs for that equipment shall be based upon the applicable provisions of EP 1110-1-8, CONSTRUCTION Equipment Ownership and Operating Expense Schedule, Region VII. Working conditions shall be considered to be average for determining equipment rates using the schedule unless specified otherwise by the contracting officer. For equipment not included in the schedule, rates for comparable pieces of equipment may be used or a rate may be developed using the formula provided in the schedule. For forward pricing, the schedule in effect at the time of negotiations shall apply. For retroactive pricing, the schedule in effect at the time the work was performed shall apply.

(c) Equipment rental costs are allowable, subject to the provisions of FAR 31.105(d)(ii) and FAR 31.205-36. Rates for equipment rented from an organization under common control, lease-purchase arrangements, and sale-leaseback arrangements, will be determined using the schedule, except that actual rates will be used for equipment leased from an organization under common control that has an established practice of leasing the same or similar equipment to unaffiliated lessees.

(d) When actual equipment costs are proposed and the total amount of the pricing action exceeds the small purchase threshold, the contracting officer shall request the contractor to submit either certified costor pricing data, or partial/limited data, as appropriate. The data shall be submitted on Standard Form 1411, Contract Pricing Proposal Cover Sheet.

NOTE 1: EP 1110-1-8 is available on the Internet at the following location:
