1.0 OVERVIEW

1.1. The Fort Worth District intends to award a Multiple Award Task Order Contract (MATOC) with a target of four (4) Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contracts to provide Repair and Alterations (RA) services of Land Ports of Entry (LPOE) in of the support the Department of Homeland Security’s LPOE RA program. The estimated maximum task order limitation is $5,000,000 with a minimum task order limitation of $2,000.

1.2. In Phase 1 of the 2 phase design build selection procedures, interested firms or joint venture entities (referred to as “Offerors”) shall submit specified performance capability proposals, demonstrating their capability to successfully execute a wide variety of multidisciplinary services required for preparation of, but not limited to, renovation, repairs, preventive maintenance, environmental abatement, and erosion control, earthwork and operations construction activities; restoration of roads, parking lots, bridges, fences, gates, equipment and fixtures, as applicable under these MATOCs. The contracts are not only intended to execute design-build construction and design-bid-build, but to provide a timely response to remediation of facilities, e.g., maintenance, repair, asbestos and lead-based paint abatement, and minor construction situations relating to, but not limited to, civil, mechanical, plumbing, structural, electrical, heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC), instrumentation, anti-terrorism and force protection. The Government will evaluate the qualifications in accordance with the criteria described herein to select the most responsible offerors to compete in Phase 2.

1.3. In phase 2, the selected Phase 2 Offerors will submit proposals for evaluation in accordance with Section 00 22 20. In Phase 2, the Contracting Officer will award a MATOC with a target of four (4) firm fixed-price Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity contracts. Award will be fair and reasonable with regard to pricing for the initial task order, and whose proposals offer the best overall value to the Government, considering the price and non-price factors described herein.

2.0 BASIS OF AWARD (MATOC)

2.1. The Contracting Officer will award a target of four (4) firm fixed-price Indefinite Delivery

Indefinite Quantity contracts to the responsible Offerors whose proposals the Source Selection Authority determines conforms to the solicitation, is fair and reasonable with regard to pricing for the initial task order, and whose proposals offer the best overall value to the Government, considering the price and non-price factors described herein. All evaluation factors, other than price, when combined, are considered significantly more important than the price; however the initial Task Order award may not exceed the cost limitation described in Section 00 73 10, which will be provided during Phase 2 for the seed project. The intent of this solicitation is to obtain the best value proposal within the contract cost limitation for the initial task order. There is no obligation to approach or match the contract cost limitation in the offer. 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. After the Government evaluates and rates each proposal, the SSEB prepares the comparative analysis to determine best value and make a recommendation to the SSA which proposals represent the best value for award.

2.2. First Award and Seed Project. Award of the first IDIQ will be made to the Offeror whose proposal is determined to represent the best overall value to the Government based on the evaluated ratings and the proposed price for the initial task order. 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 SSA must determine that the added value of a more expensive proposal for the initial task order would justify award to that Offeror. When the SSA determines that the best value proposal is other than the lowest-priced proposal, the document must explicitly justify paying a price premium regardless of the superiority of the proposal's non-cost rating. The justification must clearly state what benefits or advantages the Government is receiving for the added price and why it is in the Government's interest to expend the additional funds. This justification is required even when the solicitation indicates that non-cost factors are more important than cost/price. Likewise, where the SSA determines the non-cost benefits offered by the higher-priced, technically superior proposal are not worth the price premium as compared to the other offeror(s), an explicit justification also is necessary. The Offeror receiving the first award will receive the task order for the seed project with the award of the basic IDIQ.

2.3. Subsequent Awards and Minimum Guarantee Task Orders. Award of the subsequent

IDIQ contracts will be made to the Offeror(s) whose proposal(s) is (are) considered to represent the a target of three (3) next best value(s) to the Government based on the evaluated ratings and the proposed price for the seed project; with a target of four (4) total IDIQ awards. The price proposed under Phase 2 will be used to assist in the evaluation of the best value proposals for award of an IDIQ.

3.0 GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS

8.0 VOLUME 1, TAB D – FACTOR 3 – PAST PERFORMANCE

8.1. SUBMISSION REQUIREMENTS

8.1.1. The Offeror’s construction entities shall each demonstrate past performance through the submission of recent/relevant projects, using the NAV/FAC USACE Past Performance Questions (Attachment 5) and Designer – Past Performance Assessment Worksheet (Attachment 4) for each project submitted in Factor 1, Experience. The Past Performance Questionnaire (PPQ) included in the solicitation (Attachment 6 5) is provided for the Offeror or its team members to submit to the client for each project the Offeror included in its proposal for Factor 1, Experience that does not have a final CPARS evaluation or is a non-Federal Government project. Ensure correct phone numbers and email addresses are provided for the client point of contact. Completed PPQ’s should be submitted with your proposal. If the Offeror is unable to obtain a completed PPQ from a client for a project(s) before 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 any negative past performance information is received to which the Offeror has not previously had an opportunity to respond, the contractor will be given an opportunity to provide rebuttal. If the client requests, questionnaires may be submitted directly to the Government’s point of contact, Kimberly Rheaume, via e-mail at: kimberly.f.rheaume@usace.army.mil mailto: prior to proposal closing date. Offerors shall not incorporate by reference into their proposals PPQ’s previously submitted for other RFPs. However, this does not preclude the Government from utilizing previously submitted PPQ information in the past performance evaluation.

There is not a page limitation for this Factor.

8.1.2. Do not request past performance questionnaires (PPQ) on projects that have final CPARS evaluations. If a CPARS evaluation exists and a PPQ is provided for the same project, the CPARS evaluation will be reviewed as the official past performance record for the project, and the PPQ will not be considered by the Source Selection Board or the Source Selection Authority.

8.1.3. For USACE or other DoD projects which are underway but do not yet have an interim or final CPARS evaluation, one PPQ per contract may be submitted; to be considered, the PPQ shall be signed by the Administrative Contracting Officer (ACO) for the contract.

mailto:

8.1.4. Offerors may submit performance recognition documents received within the last seven

(7) years from the date of this solicitation such as awards, award fee determinations, customer letters of commendation, and any other forms of performance recognition relevant to the submitted projects to demonstrate the Offeror’s performance capabilities and customer satisfaction.

8.1.5. In addition to the above, the Government may review any other sources of information for evaluation of 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 number of team members (Partnership, joint venture, teaming arrangement, or parent company/subsidiary/affiliate) identified in the offeror’s proposal, inquires of owner representative(s), Federal Awardees 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 rest with the Offeror.

8.1.6. Projects will be considered relevant to this procurement if they are similar in complexity, in type, scope, and magnitude. Relevancy is defined under Tab B, Factor 1, Experience.

8.1.7. The Offeror may provide a supplemental narrative (not project lists), not to exceed two pages, explaining how any corporate past performance for the construction and design entities that is not directly related to the specific projects above is applicable to this project and how the Government will benefit.

8.1.8. Offerors may submit but, are not required to submit any additional past performance information. The Government will utilize CPARS and any other information deemed relevant to assess confidence in the Offeror’s ability to perform.

8.2. RELEVANCY DETERMINATION:

8.2.1. The Government will review the Offeror’s past performance to determine how relevant the past performance is to the project under consideration. Past performance on the projects identified in the project forms will receive more consideration than past performance provided in the supplemental narrative. The Government will place greater value on projects performed as a prime contractor than as a subcontractor, depending upon overall role and relevancy considerations. Federal Government project past performance will not be rated inherently more important than non-Federal Government project past performance.

8.2.2. More relevant past performance will typically be a stronger predictor of future success and have more influence on the past performance confidence rating than past performance of lesser relevance.

8.2.3. Contracts with lower degrees of relevance will not be as strong of predictors of likely future contract performance success and will typically have less influence on the final past performance confidence rating.

8.2.4. Contracts that have little or no relevance typically do not influence the performance confidence rating; however, any contracts with adverse past performance could reflect larger company-wide concerns and may impact upon the past performance confidence rating.

8.2.5. To be determined relevant or higher, the construction entity(ies) must each submit a collection of projects that meets all defined aspects of relevancy relative to their role on this MATOC.

8.3. CONFIDENCE EVALUATION CRITERIA:

8.3.1. The SSEB will review the past performance information available, to include CPARS, and other past performance information deemed relevant, to determine the quality and usefulness as it applies to performance confidence assessment. If any firm has multiple functions or divisions, the Government will only evaluate past performance of the division or unit submitting the offer. If the Government cannot establish the Offeror’s relevant past performance, it reserves the right to utilize the Past Performance Questionnaire to conduct telephone interviews on any source it deems relevant to the evaluation. The Government will not release the information gathered to the Offeror at any time, in order for the Government to solicit candid, unbiased interview comments.

The Government’s evaluation is not limited to past performance information on the cited example projects.

8.3.2. In determining the performance confidence rating for Past Performance, the degree of relevancy / recency of all of the considered efforts; the overall performance record of the offeror on each contract assessed; number and severity of problems, the demonstrated effectiveness of corrective actions taken (not just planned or promised); and trend data will be considered. Contracts with higher degrees of relevance will typically have a greater influence on the final performance confidence rating. Contracts with lower degrees of relevance will typically have less influence on the final performance confidence rating however, any contracts with adverse past performance could reflect larger company-wide concerns and may impact upon the past performance confidence rating. The resulting relevance assessment conclusions will then be combined, along with the assessed quality of performance on prior contracts, to arrive at a single performance confidence rating for the Past Performance Factor.

8.3.3. The performance confidence rating will be established based on the past performance of the firms or that of its predecessor, if applicable. An entity may not establish past performance based on the past performance of its key personnel apart from that of the entity. If the Government does not obtain past performance information and cannot establish a past performance record for the Offeror through other sources, a rating of Unknown confidence will be assigned.

8.3.4. If negative information is received, the Offeror will be given an opportunity to provide input as required by FAR 15. CPARS that are part of the official record will be utilized as if the Offeror has already had an opportunity to respond.

9.0 RATING AND EVALUATION PROCEDURES

9.1. SOURCE SELECTION EVALUATION BOARD (SSEB)

The SSEB will be established to conduct the evaluation of proposals received in response to this solicitation. The evaluation will be based on 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 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 for the Phase 1 submission are cautioned to put forth their best efforts for the 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.

9.2.2. The Government reserves the right to allow proposal revisions in accordance with FAR 15.306(d)(5) Exchanges with Offerors After Receipt of Proposals, if deemed necessary to determine the most highly qualified Offerors.

9.2.3. The Contracting Officer will award a target of four (4) firm fixed-price contracts to the firms whose proposals offer the best overall value to the Government, considering the price and non-price factors.

9.3. DISCUSSIONS (If Necessary) –

9.3.1. During Phase 1, the Government intends to shortlist firms without discussions to move to

Phase 2.A “Competitive Range” is a subjective determination of the most highly rated proposals in the event that discussions with Offerors are required. In such an event, the SSA will approve a competitive range of all the most highly rated proposals.

9.3.2. If discussions are held, the Government may engage in a broad give and take with each Offeror in the competitive range, in accordance with FAR 15.306 (d). The Government will provide the Offeror an advance agenda for the discussions. During discussions, the Government may ask the Offeror to further explain its proposal and to answer questions about it.

9.3.3. Upon conclusion of discussions, those Offerors still considered the most highly rated, will be afforded an opportunity to submit their Phase 1 proposal revisions for final evaluation and selection to move to Phase 2.

9.4. EVALUATION AND RATING SYSTEM

9.4.1. General: The Government will review the proposals and rate the information submitted for each evaluation factor. The SSEB will rate each proposal against the specified evaluation criteria in the Solicitation requirements.

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 adjectival rating of ““Outstanding”, “Good”, “Acceptable”, “Marginal”, or “Unacceptable” to each factor. The rating will reflect the Government’s confidence in each Offeror’s technical ability, as demonstrated in its proposal, to perform the requirements stated in the RFP.

Outstanding: Performance meets contractual requirements and exceeds many requirements that benefit the end user. Work was accomplished with few, if any, minor problems for which corrective actions taken by the contractor were highly effective.

Good: Performance meets contractual requirements and exceeds some requirements that benefit the end user. Work was accomplished with some minor problems for which corrective actions taken by the contractor were effective.

Acceptable: Performance meets contractual requirements. Work was accomplished with some minor problems for which corrective actions taken by the contractor were satisfactory.

Marginal: Performance does not meet some contractual requirements. Serious problems with contractor performance were experienced for which the contractor has either not yet identified corrective actions or the corrective actions taken appear only marginally effective.

Unacceptable: Performance does not meet most contractual requirements. Serious problems with contractor performance were experienced for which the corrective actions were ineffective.

9.5. DEFINITIONS

9.5.1. Deficiency. A deficiency is 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. See FAR 15.001.

9.5.2. Weakness. A flaw in the proposal that increases the risk of unsuccessful contract performance. See FAR 15.001.

9.6. PAST PERFORMANCE RATINGS. A single confidence rating shall be assigned to Past

Performance.

9.6.1. The relevancy determination will assess the Offeror’s past performance to determine how relevant a recent effort accomplished by the Offeror is to the effort to be acquired under this solicitation.

9.6.2. The confidence rating assesses the risks associated with each Offeror's likelihood of success in performing the requirements stated in the RFP based on the Offeror's demonstrated performance on recent contracts. SSEB members and the SSA may use personal knowledge or information from other sources in its evaluation of an Offeror’s past performance, provided such information is consistent with the established evaluation criteria of the RFP. Offerors that have no relevant performance record will be given a neutral/unknown confidence rating.

9.6.3. Relevancy Determination Definitions

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

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

9.6.3.3. Somewhat Relevant. Present/past performance effort involved some of the scope and

9.6.3.4. Not Relevant. Present/past performance effort involved little or none of the scope and

9.6.4. Confidence Rating System

9.6.4.1. Unknown Confidence (Neutral). No relevant performance record is identifiable upon which to base a meaningful performance risk prediction. A search was unable to identify any relevant past performance information for the Offeror or key team members/subcontractors. This is neither a negative or positive assessment.

9.6.4.2. 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.

9.6.4.3. Satisfactory Confidence. Based on the Offeror’s recent/relevant performance record, the

Government has a reasonable expectation that the Offeror will successfully perform the

9.6.4.4. 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.

9.6.4.5. 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

ADJECTIVE RATINGS AND DEFINITIONS TO BE USED TO BEST REFLECT

YOUR EVALUATION OF THE CONTRACTOR’S PERFORMANCE

RATING DEFINITION NOTE

(E) Exceptional

Performance meets contractual requirements and exceeds many to the Government/Owner’s benefit. The contractual performance of the element or sub-element being assessed was accomplished with few minor problems for which corrective actions taken by the contractor was highly effective.

An Exceptional rating is appropriate when the Contractor successfully performed multiple significant events that were of benefit to the Government/Owner.

A singular benefit, however, could be of such magnitude that it alone constitutes an Exceptional rating.

Also, there should have been NO significant weaknesses identified.

(VG) Very Good

Performance meets contractual requirements and exceeds some to the Government’s/Owner’s benefit. The contractual performance of the element or sub-element being assessed was accomplished with some minor problems for which corrective actions taken by the contractor were effective.

A Very Good rating is appropriate when the Contractor successfully performed a significant event that was a benefit to the Government/Owner. There should have been no significant weaknesses identified.

(S) Satisfactory Performance meets minimum contractual requirements. The contractual performance of the element or sub-element contains some minor problems for which corrective actions taken by the contractor appear or were satisfactory.

A Satisfactory rating is appropriate when there were only minor problems, or major problems that the contractor recovered from without impact to the contract. There should have been NO significant weaknesses identified. Per DOD policy, a fundamental principle of assigning ratings is that contractors will not be assessed a rating lower than Satisfactory solely for not performing beyond the requirements of the contract.

(M) Marginal Performance does not meet some contractual requirements. The contractual performance of the element or sub-element being assessed reflects a serious problem for which the contractor has not yet identified corrective actions. The contractor's proposed actions appear only marginally effective or were not fully implemented.

A Marginal is appropriate when a significant event occurred that the contractor had trouble overcoming which impacted the Government/Owner.

(U) Unsatisfactory

Performance does not meet most contractual requirements and recovery is not likely in a timely manner. The contractual performance of the element or sub-element contains serious problem(s) for which the contractor's corrective actions appear or were ineffective.

An Unsatisfactory rating is appropriate when multiple significant events occurred that the contractor had trouble overcoming and which impacted the Government/Owner. A singular problem, however, could be of such serious magnitude that it alone constitutes an unsatisfactory rating.

(N) Not Applicable

No information or did not apply to your contract

Rating will be neither positive nor negative.
