1.0 OVERVIEW

This Request for Proposal (RFP) solicits for the construction of a General Purpose Warehouse at Red River Army Depot, located in Texarkana, Texas. The Design-Bid-Build project shall consist of the construction of the General Purpose Warehouse totaling 240,000 square feet storage capacity and 3,000 square feet of administrative space. This solicitation is for a Design-Bid-Build, Firm-Fixed Price (FFP) contract at Red River Army Depot, Texarkana, Texas.

The work shall be in accordance with the Request for Proposal documents. The proposed project will be a competitive Unrestricted, Full-and-Open competition resulting in the award of a firm-fixed price contract procured in accordance with FAR 15.101, Negotiated Procurement using the “Tradeoff Process”.

The Tradeoff Process permits the tradeoffs among cost, price and/or non-cost factors and allows the Government to accept other than the lowest priced proposal. Offerors submit their performance and capability information for review and consideration by the Government. Relative weights among technical factors are provided in Section 4: Evaluation Factors & Weighting. The Source Selection Evaluation Board (SSEB) reviews, evaluates, and rates the proposals against the source selection criteria in the RFP. A competitive range consisting of the most highly qualified technical offerors will be established prior to discussions (if held). Concurrently, the Government analyzes price proposals of Offerors utilizing the project cost proposal. Price will not be rated, but will be a factor in making the final best value determination for award. The Source Selection Authority (SSA) compares proposals and determines the best value for the government. The perceived benefits of the higher priced proposal must merit the additional cost, and the rationale for tradeoffs must be documented.

2.0 BASIS OF AWARD

The Contracting Officer (CO) will award a firm fixed-price contract to that responsible Offeror whose proposal the Source Selection Authority (SSA) determines offers the best overall value to the Government. Best Value means the expected outcome of an acquisition that, in the Government’s estimation, provides the greatest overall benefit in response to the requirement. In using the best value approach, the Government seeks to award a contract to the Offeror who gives the Government the greatest confidence that it will best meet our requirements.

This process may result in an award being made to a firm with a higher-priced offer where the decision is consistent with the evaluation criteria/factors and the SSA determines that the technical or service superiority and/or overall business approach and/or superior past performance of the higher-priced offer outweighs the cost difference.

The SSA, using sound business judgment, bases the award decision on an integrated assessment of the evaluation criteria in the factors described below. While the entire evaluation team strives for maximum objectivity, the selection process is subjective by nature and professional judgment is implicit throughout the best value process. Ultimately, the contract shall be awarded to the Offeror whose proposal, based upon the evaluation criteria, represents the best value to the Government.

Proposals must meet the criteria stated in the RFP in order to be eligible for award, to include responsiveness, technical acceptability and responsibility.

In order to determine which proposal(s) represent the best value, the Government will be determined by a comparative assessment of proposals against all source selection criteria in this RFP.

As technical ratings and relative advantages and disadvantages become less distinct, differences in price between proposals are of increased importance in determining the most advantageous proposal.

Conversely, as differences in price become less distinct, differences in technical ratings and relative advantages and disadvantages between proposals are of increased importance to the determination. All evaluation factors when combined are significantly more important than price.

The Government reserves the right to accept other than the lowest priced offer(s). The right is also reserved to reject any and all offers.

Offerors are reminded to include their best technical and price terms in their initial offer and not to automatically assume that they will have an opportunity to participate in discussions or be asked to submit a revised offer.

3.0 GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS

Firms formally organized as a single entity firms that have associated specifically for this project, consortia of firms or any other interested parties may submit proposals. Associations may be as joint ventures or as key team subcontractors.

Any legally organized Offeror may submit a proposal.

Contractor Team Arrangements. Contractor Team Arrangements are considered an arrangement in which: two or more companies form a partnership or joint venture to act as a potential prime contractor; or (2) a potential prime contractor agrees with one or more other companies to have them act as its subcontractors under a specified Government contract or acquisition program. In accordance with FAR Subpart 9.6, the Government will recognize the integrity and validity of contractor team arrangements; provided, the arrangements are identified and company relationships are fully disclosed in the offer. The Offeror shall identify the major or critical aspects of the requirement to be performed by those identified in the Contractor Team Arrangement. The submission must contain a narrative that clearly explains the relevance to a particular factor of information concerning a company that is part of a Contractor Team Arrangement.

The Government will consider the adequacy of this explanation in deciding the relevance of the information to this procurement.

Any Offeror submitting an offer in the name of a joint venture, shall include a fully executed copy of the joint venture agreement with the offer. Joint venture agreements which require SBA approval may be submitted absent the requisite SBA Servicing Agency approving authorities’ signature; however, the Offeror shall submit evidence from the Offeror’s SBA Servicing Agency that the Offeror has notified and discussed the proposed joint venture for this project with the appropriate SBA personnel.

Offerors shall submit their proposal per the instructions provided in Section 00 21 00. Proposals are due no later than the time and date specified in Block 13 of Standard Form 1442.

5.0 TAB A – FACTOR 1 - PAST PERFORMANCE

5.1 SUBMISSION REQUIREMENTS:

5.1.1. The Offerors shall demonstrate past performance through the submission of similar projects, using the Construction – Past Performance Assessment Worksheet (Attachment 2). If the Offeror is a Joint Venture, Limited Liability Corporation (LLC), Partnership, Teaming Arrangement, or Parent company/subsidiary/affiliate as identified in the offeror’s proposal, provide past performance information for construction projects relevant to each of the proposed roles on this project. If any firm has multiple functions or divisions, limit the project examples to those performed by the division or unit submitting the offer. If projects were design-bid-build, identify them as such. Offeror can submit no more than three (3) projects (up to one proposal data sheet per project) that are similar in size, scope, and complexity to the scope of the work for this solicitation to be considered relevant. One (1) of the three (3) projects submitted for past performance may be a current construction project with at least 50% construction progress completed. If offeror is proposing as a Joint Venture (JV) LLC, Partnership and/or Teaming Arrangement and past performance cannot be provided as such, each partner shall submit past performance information, with no more than three (3) projects each.

5.1.2. The Past Performance Questionnaire (PPQ) included in the solicitation (Attachment 3) is provided for the Offeror to submit to the client for each project the Offeror included for Factor 1, Past Performance that does not have an interim or final CPARS or CCASS 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 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 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, Paige Stone, via e-mail at:

Paige.E.Stone@usace.army.mil prior to proposal closing date.

5.1.2.1. 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.

5.1.2.2. Do not request past performance questionnaires (PPQ) on projects that have interim or final CPARS or CCASS evaluations. If an interim or final CPARS or CCASS evaluation exists and a PPQ is provided for the same project, the CPARS or CCASS 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.

5.1.2.3. For USACE or other DoD projects which are underway but do not yet have an interim or final CPARS or CCASS 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.

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

5.1.3.1. Offerors may submit information on past performance issues and corrective actions taken to prevent these issues from reoccurring. Discuss whether these corrective actions have been implemented on contracts awarded subsequent to the performance issues, the effectiveness of the corrective actions, and POC information for the subsequent contracts.

5.1.4. 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 rests with the Offeror.

5.1.5. Projects will be considered relevant to this procurement as it pertains to past performance information:

a. The same scope complexity of a General Warehouse, new construction building and

b. Construction of a minimum 150,000 sq ft building and

c. A construction magnitude between $25,000,000.00 and $100,000,000.00

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

5.2 RELEVANCY DETERMINATION:

5.2.1. The Government will evaluate 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.

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

5.2.3. 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.

5.2.4. 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 have impact upon the past performance confidence rating.

5.2.5. Based on the relevancy of the projects submitted, an overall relevancy determination will be assessed as an interim step prior to establishing a confidence rating. An overall determination of “very relevant” can only be achieved if a single project meets all four of the relevancy criteria. If all four relevancy criteria are met through a combination of two or more projects, the overall relevancy determination will be no higher than “relevant”.

5.2.6. Offeror can submit no more than three (3) projects (up to one proposal data sheet per project) that are similar in size, scope, and complexity to the scope of the work for this solicitation to be considered relevant. One (1) of the three (3) projects submitted for past performance may be a current construction project with at least 50% construction progress completed. If offeror is proposing as a Joint Venture (JV) LLC, Partnership and/or Teaming Arrangement and past performance cannot be provided as such, each partner shall submit past performance information, with no more than three (3) projects each.

5.3 CONFIDENCE EVALUATION CRITERIA:

5.3.1. The SSEB will review the past performance information available, to include CPARS, CCASS 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. Owners/references may be asked to comment on items such as quality of construction, timeliness, management of the work, subcontractor management, including timely payment to subs or suppliers, safety, level of support for such things as as-built documentation, O&M manuals, training, correcting construction errors, warranty work, etc. 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.

5.3.2. In determining the performance confidence rating for Past Performance, the degree of relevancy 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. Contracts which are comparatively more recent may be better predictors of likely future success than older contracts. The resulting relevant/recent 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.

5.3.3. The 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 (Neutral) confidence will be assigned.

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

7.0 TAB C – FACTOR 3 –SUMMARY SCHEDULE (TECHNICAL APPROACH)

7.1. SUBMISSION REQUIREMENTS:

7.1.1. Proposed Contract Duration: The Offeror shall propose the overall contract duration in the CLIN Schedule, not to exceed the maximum contract duration specified in Section 01 00 00.00 44.

7.1.2. Summary Schedule: Submit a summary level schedule for construction. This schedule will, after contract award, be replaced with a project schedule as required by Section 01 32 01.00 10 – Project Schedule. The schedule shall be task oriented, indicating the number of calendar days, after notice to proceed, by which milestones are to be achieved. Offeror may use a critical path or other method of their choice; however, schedules shall be graphically represented and shall include, as a minimum, Activity ID, Activity Description, Original Duration, early start and early finish dates, and total float for each activity. The proposed schedule shall include an activity that shows the proposed overall contract duration in calendar days. Give attention to the following items:

(a) Show activities for the warehouse, site work and utilities in sufficient detail to demonstrate an understanding of the scope of work to include design documents and to substantiate the reasonableness and realism of the proposed duration.

(b) Show submittal preparation and review/approval activities for long lead items to demonstrate an understanding of the submittal process and minimum review times for Government approved submittals. (See Section 01 33 00 Submittal Procedures.)

(c) Show activities for work in sufficient detail to demonstrate your understanding of the requirements for working in this area. (See Section 01 00 00.00 44 Construction Schedule).

(d) Show turnover per design documents. The time to complete the construction and turnover to the Government must consider the requirement for the Contractor’s CQC completion inspection and the subsequent joint Contractor-Government turnover inspection.

(e) Show closeout activities, to include the Red Zone meeting, record drawings, O&M manuals, to demonstrate your understanding of the closeout requirements for the contract.

(See section 01 78 00 Closeout Submittals).

(f) Indicate the anticipated overall critical path on the schedule.

(g) Show activities and/or milestones for coordination with other Government agencies or contractors during construction, to demonstrate your understanding of the coordination requirements for the contract. (See Section 01 00 00.00 44 Construction Schedule).

7.2. EVALUATION CRITERIA:

7.2.1. Contract Duration: The proposed duration will become the contractually binding schedule. The Government will evaluate the contract duration, as proposed by the Offeror herein, not to exceed the maximum allowed duration listed in Section 01 00 00.00 44. This duration shall also include all bid options. In assessing the reasonableness of the proposed contract duration, the Government may take into account how well the proposed summary schedule supports the proposed duration, as well as use other information, such as but not limited to independent judgment concerning logic, constraints and typical construction durations. A proposed contract duration shorter than the maximum allowed duration will receive additional rating consideration, provided the schedule is realistic and deemed to be achievable. The Government will consider an unreasonably condensed contract duration, which places additional cost or schedule risk on the Government or which may create a risk of contract or performance failure, as a significant weakness or a deficiency, depending upon the evaluators' judgment.

7.2.2. Summary Schedule: The Government will evaluate the schedule to assess the strength of understanding of the project scope, coordination and restrictions which must be considered in the schedule (see section 01 00 00.00 44), long lead items, closeout process. The Government will evaluate the Offeror's capability to schedule the complete project within the proposed contract duration and the realism of the schedule. A schedule that offers advantage(s) to the Government over one that merely indicates an adequate understanding of the scope, restrictions, major milestones and general understanding of the contract requirements will receive additional consideration.
