SECTION 00 11 00
(b) Quality of Past Performance.
(1) The Offeror shall submit evidence of the quality of their past performance for each project. For Federal Government projects, the Offeror shall provide a completed contractor performance evaluation, whether interim or final, found in the Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System (www.cpars.gov/). If a proper evaluation does not exist in CPARS, because it has not been completed or the project is a non-Federal Government project, the Offeror shall provide a completed Past Performance Questionnaire (PPQ) (See Attachment 3). If, at time of evaluation, a final contractor performance evaluation exists in CPARS, and yet the Offeror submits a PPQ, only the evaluation in CPARS will be considered.
(2) Past performance surveys/assessment/evaluation forms other than CPARS or PPQs are unacceptable and will not be considered or evaluated.
(3) Completed PPQs that were submitted in response to previous solicitations may be used in this source selection. However, Offerors shall not incorporate such PPQs by reference and thus must resubmit the PPQ with their proposal. This does not, however, preclude the Government from utilizing previously submitted PPQ information in the Past Performance evaluation. While the Government may elect to consider data from other sources, the burden of providing current, detailed and complete past performance information rests with the Offeror.
(4) If an Offeror has been required to take corrective action for any substandard performance or experienced other performance problems such as cost overruns, extended performance periods, numerous warranty calls, etc., the Offeror should explain the circumstances and the corrective actions taken.
(5) If an Offeror’s client/customer will only provide completed PPQs directly to the U.S.
Army Corps of Engineers, Mobile District, Offerors must ensure the client/customer submits the PPQ by the proposal due date using the following electronic mailing address:
cesam.plansroom@sam.usace.army.mil Chanda.D.Strenth@usace.army.mil. The solicitation number shall be included on the PPQ form. PPQs received after the proposal due date will be considered untimely and will not be considered during the evaluation.
(NOTE: The remainder of the section is unchanged by the amendment.)

SECTION 00 12 00
3.3 Evaluation of Factor 2 – Technical/Management Approach –
(1)The SSEB will evaluate the technical/management approach narrative to assess the Offeror’s understanding of the requirements of the solicitation, particularly the task order process; the adequacy of personnel, procedures, systems and plans for responding to and execution of task order requirements, to include acquisition of permits in the states covered by this solicitation, safety planning, commitment to self-perform the required percentage of work (as established in clause 52.219-14 paragraphs (c)(3) and (4)), and for procedures to hire a qualified design firm when design is included in the task order. The SSEB will determine the strengths, weaknesses and deficiencies, in any, in the approach presented, and then assign an overall combined technical/risk ratings as listed below. The technical rating reflects the degree to which the proposed approach meets or does not meet the minimum technical requirements.
Ratings Combined Technical/Risk Rating Definitions
OUTSTANDING
Proposal meets requirements and indicates an exceptional approach and understanding of the requirements. Strengths far outweigh any weaknesses. Risk of unsuccessful performance is very low.
GOOD
Proposal meets requirements and indicates a thorough approach and understanding of the requirements. The proposal contains strengths, which outweigh any weaknesses. Risk of unsuccessful performance is low.
ACCEPTABLE
Proposal meets requirements and indicates an adequate approach and understanding of the requirements. Strengths and weaknesses are offsetting or will have little or no impact on contract performance. Risk of unsuccessful performance is no worse than moderate.
MARGINAL
Proposal does not clearly meet requirements and has not fully demonstrated an adequate approach and understanding of the requirements. The proposal has one or more weaknesses, which are not offset by strengths. Risk of unsuccessful performance is high.
UNACCEPTABLE Proposal does not meet requirements and contains one or more deficiencies. The proposal is unawardable.
(NOTE: The remainder of the section is unchanged by the amendment.)

SECTION 01 00 02
2.0 OBJECTIVE. This contract is intended to provide for a quick, cost effective response to requirements for a full range of horizontal construction, renovation, repairs and some incidental design/build construction task orders for general construction primarily supporting the work to be performed at locations described in paragraph 1.1. Potential projects may include but are not limited to new construction, incidental/full design, asphalt paving, installation of power, and rehabilitation of miscellaneous facilities/buildings such as shower buildings, bath houses, shops, picnic sites, playgrounds, picnic shelters, courtesy docks, storage facilities, campsites, boat storage, shop or project management offices, covered picnic tables, etc. Projects may also include of conversion of primitive sites to full hook up, demolition, install/repair covered picnic tables, conversion of storage facility to climate controlled, and roof replacement. Facility design and construction shall conform to the requirements of the technical criteria listed in the Task Order. These objectives shall be achieved through the implementation of Task Orders issued under the terms of this contract for all of the herein described tasks or additional tasks described in specific Task Orders.
(NOTE: The remainder of the section is unchanged by the amendment.)
Section 01 00 02
Section 01 00 04 - Page 1 of 8
Section 01 00 04
OUTLINE OF THE TASK ORDER PROCESS OF A MATOC
1.0 Step 1. Project Identification and Prioritization
1.1 Projects will be identified and prioritized by Facilities Owners, and then a general description of the work will be provided to the Corps of Engineers' Project Manager. The project will be either fully designed and issued as a construction Task Order or project requirements will be developed to some level and issued as a Design-Build Task Order. Typical projects using this process will include new construction, design-build and major renovation and repair of Operations Division facilities (Reference SECTION 01 00 02).
1.2 The scope of work for this solicitation and the resulting contracts may duplicate the scope of work under existing or future contracts. In that event, the Government reserves the right to choose among the contracts, or award a new contract to accomplish the Government’s requirement.
1.3 It is anticipated that Task Orders may be awarded based on competition between the multiple Awardees (Contractors) in each region or location covered by this Solicitation.
1.4 The Contractors will be given a fair opportunity to compete for Task Orders, unless the Contracting Officer determines:
a. An urgent need exists, and seeking competition would result in unacceptable delays,
b. Only one Contractor is capable at the level of quality required because the requirement is unique or highly specialized,
c. A sole source acquisition is in the interest of efficiency and economy as a logical follow-on to an order already completed, or
d. To satisfy contract minimum award obligations.
1.5 When determining a Contractor’s eligibility for award of Task Orders among all of the contracts available to the Government, the Contracting Officer will consider such criteria as: (a) The quality of performance of the contractor(s) under the current and/or past IDIQs; (b) Contractor's plan for accomplishment of the order and capability to successfully perform the plan; (c) Contractor's current capacity to accomplish the order in the required time; (d) Uniquely specialized experience for specialty type requirements; (e) Pricing history and proposed Task Order pricing; (f) Capability of proposed on-site management; and (g) other relevant factors.
2.0 Step 2. Notification of Proposed Task Order
Revised and Reissued by Amendment No. 0001
Section 01 00 04 - Page 2 of 8
2.1 As the need arises for performance under the terms of this contract, the Contracting Officer (CO) will notify the Contractor(s) of an existing requirement. This notification can come before a Request for Proposal is issued (see Step 3), or at the time the Request for Proposal is issued.
2.2 Upon receipt of this notification, the Contractor(s) shall respond to the needs of the Government within two (2) working days by:
2.2.1 Visiting the proposed work site in the company of the Contracting Officer’s Representative (COR), and/or other Government representatives.
2.2.2 Establishing oral contact with the COR to further define the scope of the requirement.
2.3 No separate payment will be made for such efforts to visit the site or to otherwise assist the Government in jointly identifying the scope of work for the proposed Task Order.
2.4 A site visit is considered essential to the preparation of a competitive and complete proposal, and to understanding the total results desired by the Government. Failure to visit the site, and/or discuss the project requirements with the COR, may not be used as an excuse for omissions or errors in the proposals, and may be taken into consideration in determining a Contractor’s eligibility to participate in future Task Orders.
3.0 Step 3. Statement of Work and Request for Proposal
3.1 The Contracting Officer will provide the Statement of Work and a Request for Proposal ("RFP") to the Contractor(s).
3.2 The Contractor(s) will visit the project site with the COR and/or other Government representatives and may support project scope of work development by performing a site survey or a facility assessment. The Government and/or Contractor(s) will prepare or discuss a project budgetary estimate at this time to verify the estimate used in the customer’s project approval document.
3.3 Statement of Work.
3.3.1 The Government may issue a Statement of Work which is less than full design, and will require the Contractor(s) to furnish professional design services to develop the scope of work to a level sufficient for the Contractor(s) to understand and be able to price the actual construction/ repair/renovation work, and final design, when such is necessary.
3.3.2 Otherwise, the Government will furnish the Contractor(s) a Statement of Work in sufficient detail of design development to be able to accurately price the work, using normal estimating and take-off procedures. The Contractor(s) may have to visit the site and/or perform normal measurement surveys and calculations or standard extensions to Government furnished designs. No separate payment will be made for such efforts.
Section 01 00 04 - Page 3 of 8
3.3.3 The original Statement of Work may be general (such as, “replace roofs”, “construct a warehouse” “asphalt repair/replacement”, “install power supply”, etc.) or it may be a detailed scope of work with drawings, specifications and very specific criteria and/or tasks. The various levels of development of the Statement of Work may be:
3.3.3.1 The Statement of Work may be a fully developed project design with a detailed scope of work, similar to a conventional design-bid-build process.
3.3.3.2 The Statement of Work may be a partially completed design, developed to a level of detail that all parties understand the scope of work and can adequately price a Task Order and fully execute the construction/repair/renovation work.
3.3.3.3 Another alternative will be the situation where the Statement of Work is too general for all parties to fully understand and determine the scope of work requirements and/or price (“an undefinitized scope”). In this case, the Task Order will be canceled until such time as the Government can provide a biddable Statement of Work.
3.4 Request for Proposal. The Contracting Officer will request proposals from the Contractor(s) to execute the construction/repair/renovation work, or design-build services, for the project, and, if necessary, any further Statement of Work development effort required of the Contractor(s).
The RFP will also include provisions for submittals, schedules and contractor quality control (including specific design-build clauses, where appropriate) and specific design-build provisions, such as "Design Requirements" and "Design After Award". The Request for Proposal will also include the Department of Labor wage decision(s) applicable to the project.
4.0 Step 4. Proposal Preparation and Negotiation
4.1 The Contractor(s) will submit proposal(s) for execution of the construction or design-build Task Order. No separate payment will be made for the cost to prepare, submit and/or negotiate a Task Order proposal. The proposal(s) will be evaluated and/or negotiated either as sole source actions, or as competitive actions if two or more Contractors are competing for a Task Order.
4.2 Contractor(s) shall respond to the RFP within the number of calendar days stated in the RFP.
In the event a Contractor is unable to submit a proposal or offer in response to an RFP, the Contractor shall notify the Contracting Officer in writing.
4.3 Competitive Proposal Submissions and Evaluation
4.3.1 When an RFP is issued under the competitive process, the Government intends to select the proposal that is most advantageous and responsive to the Government’s needs, price and other factors considered. The “other factors” to be considered include, but may not be limited to, preliminary design, other technical information, past performance on earlier Task Orders, including quality of work, timeliness, safety, or other factors that the Contracting Officer determines to be relevant to the Task Order. It is anticipated that most Task Orders will be evaluated on price alone.
Section 01 00 04 - Page 4 of 8
4.3.2 For competitive proposals where other than price factors alone are to be used to determine the best proposal for the Task Order, each RFP will describe the submission and evaluation criteria to be utilized in evaluating Task Order proposals. The determination of the successful Contractor for the Task Order will be made by the Contracting Officer and the process used will be as follows:
4.3.2.1 A simplified rating system will be employed by the Government to evaluate the technical or performance factors, and to rate each proposal. The results will be documented by the Contracting Officer.
4.3.2.2 Price will normally be weighted more heavily than the other factors, however, there may be instances where the technical rating becomes equal to, or more important than, price.
4.3.2.3 The RFP will describe the manner in which the proposed prices are to be submitted.
This will normally be lump sum and/or unit prices for Bid Items designated in the RFP. Under the competitive proposal conditions, the prices for the CLINs, as proposed in the original Solicitation CLIN Schedule, shall serve as the basis for all future Task Orders and modifications thereto, relative to establishing prices for the field overhead, design, and markups, as applicable to the work involved in the requirement. The Contractor’s costs/prices for the CLINs may be equal to or less than, but shall not exceed, the costs/prices proposed in the Contract CLIN Schedule for all contract actions executed under the auspices of these MATOC/IDIQ Contracts.
Prices not covered by an applicable CLIN shall be based on the Contractor’s costs in accordance with the Federal Acquisition Regulations, part 31 COST PRINCIPLES AND PROCEDURES.
The Government reserves the right to obtain breakdowns of the proposals, in the event discussion of prices are required in order to resolve differences between the proposals and the Government’s estimate. Such price discussions, normally, will be conducted with all Contractors that are competing on the same Task Order. However, a Contractor may be excluded from discussions, in the interest of efficiency and timeliness of the award of a Task Order, if their price is so unreasonable that it will have little or no chance of becoming competitive. The Government reserves the right to make an award on the initial proposal without further discussions.
4.4 Sole Source Proposal Submission and Negotiation
4.4.1 When a sole source action is justified, a detailed proposal is to be submitted in response to the Task Order RFP. The proposal will be prepared as follows:
(a) The Contractor shall prepare their Task Order proposal in the same format described for modifications under the Contract Clause, Modification Proposals-Price Breakdown. The prices for the CLINs, as provided in the original Solicitation CLIN Schedule, shall serve as the basis for establishing prices for the field overhead, design, and mark-ups, as applicable to the work involved in the requirement. The Contractor's costs for the CLINs may be equal to or less than, but shall not exceed, the costs shown in the contract CLIN schedule. Prices not covered by an applicable CLIN shall be based on the Contractor's costs in accordance with the Federal Acquisition Regulations, Part 31, COST PRINCIPLES AND PROCEDURES. Labor rates used by the Prime contractor and subcontractors shall not be less than the minimum wage rates
Section 01 00 04 - Page 5 of 8 determined by the Department of Labor. The latest wage decision(s) issued by the Department of Labor will be included in the Task Order RFP.
(b) Prices for Construction Equipment owned by the Contractor or his Subcontractors shall be based on the Corps of Engineers' "EQUIPMENT OWNERSHIP AND OPERATING EXPENSE SCHEDULE", in accordance with the General Contract Requirements.
(c) The Contractor shall provide copies of their proposed subcontractors' proposals as part of their proposal for a Task Order. Except as provided below, each subcontractor shall prepare its proposal in the same detail and format as required from the Contractor in Paragraph (a), above.
Subcontractors shall identify costs for direct labor tradesmen and site overhead costs within their proposals to the Contractor, using the applicable CLIN description. Subcontractor cost for the CLIN’s may be equal to or less than, but shall not exceed, those cost shown in the contract CLIN schedule.
(d) Subcontractors shall separately identify all markups for general and administrative expense and profit in their proposal to the Contractor. The Government will not pay for subcontractor bonds, because the prime contractor's profit rate is included in a fixed CLIN, and assumes that risk. Normally, the Government would negotiate a lower profit rate to offset the reduced risk to the Prime contractor for required subcontractor bonds. Therefore, the Contractor should consider this when establishing his profit rate.
(e) Except for professional design services, the Contractor may provide copies of competitive quotes from subcontractors, in lieu of providing a detailed subcontractor proposal with separately identified labor, material, equipment costs and markups. Adequate competition may normally be assumed when there are at least three independent quotes. The COR may allow two quotes, upon request of the Contractor, prior to submission of the Task Order proposal in extenuating circumstances. Subcontractors shall provide quotes in reasonable enough detail for the Government and the Contractor to be able to accurately confirm the scope of services and materials included in the quote. The Government reserves the right to require a detailed breakdown of a proposed subcontract proposal or quote, if necessary to determine its reasonableness.
(f) If professional design services are included in a Task Order (i.e., in case of design-build or preparation of a work plan), all CLIN unit prices per “manhour” shall include all costs to the Contractor per manhour, such as direct salary costs, all insurance, taxes, workmen’s compensation and other benefit costs, all A/E firm overheads, profits and other costs per manhour of professional services. No additional costs/markups from an A/E firm to the Contractor per manhour on any CLIN will be allowed.
(g) The Contractor must propose and clearly identify all non-prepriced costs to be included in an individual requirement.
(h) The Contractor must support its proposal by necessary documentation to indicate that adequate planning to accomplish the requirement has been done. The proposal must have
Section 01 00 04 - Page 6 of 8 adequate detail for the COR to analyze to determine fairness and reasonableness in accordance with FAR Subpart 15.4, CONTRACT PRICING.
(i) Time for submittal of the Contractor's proposal will be as agreed upon between the Government and the Contractor.
(j) In accordance with FAR Subpart 15.4, the Contractor's proposal for any Task Order exceeding $2,000,000 is subject to the requirements of the Truth in Negotiations Act ("TINA").
The Contractor shall submit "Cost or Pricing Data" to support all non-prepriced items in the proposal, unless a waiver under the above cited FAR provisions applies. The Government may audit a proposal subject to TINA.
4.4.2 Upon receipt of the Contractor's proposal, the Government will review the proposal for completeness and analyze any non-prepriced prices for fairness and reasonableness. The parties will negotiate all non-prepriced items, quantities for prepriced items and performance times.
5.0 Step 5. Award of Task Order
5.1 Upon conclusion of evaluations and/or negotiations, the Contracting Officer will issue a Firm, Fixed-Priced Task Order, using a DD Form 1155. Each Task Order will include, as a minimum, the following information:
(a) The Task Order date.
(b) Contract and Task Order numbers.
(c) The Task Order Contractor's evaluated or negotiated proposal and amount(s).
(d) Task Order price and performance date.
(e) Accounting and appropriation data.
(f) Liquidated Damages rates, if any.
(g) Any other pertinent data.
5.2 The Government reserves the right from time to time to execute changes in delivery dates of on-going Task Orders to accommodate higher priority work.
5.3 BONDING. Performance and payment bonds will be required after award of each task order and before issuance of Notice to Proceed. For more information, refer to FAR clause 52.228-15 under Section 00 70 00. Additional bond or guarantee shall be added during contract performance, should the value of undelivered work outstanding on the contract exceed the current performance bond levels. The Task Order Contractor will be notified of the required level of coverage prior to award of a Task Order, and shall provide the required protection within
Section 01 00 04 - Page 7 of 8
10 days of award of the Task Order. Notice to Proceed will not be issued for a Task Order until the Task Order Contractor provides sufficient bonds or guarantees to cover the work being performed.
5.4 In accordance with FAR 16.505(a)(7), no protest under FAR 33.1 is authorized in connection with the issuance or proposed issuance of an order under a Task Order contract, except for a protest on the grounds that the order increases the scope, period or maximum value of the contract.
5.5 Ombudsman. If a Contractor believes they are not being fairly considered for a particular Task Order, they may present the matter to the Contracting Officer. The Contractor may appeal the explanation or decision of the Contracting Officer to the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Ombudsman, who is the Principal Assistant Responsible for Contracting (PARC) Deputy Director of Contracting, at the following address: Headquarters, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Attention: CEPR-P (USACE Ombudsman), 441 G Street, N.W., Washington, DC 20314-1000.
The Ombudsman will review the Contractor’s complaint, and in coordination with the Contracting Officer, ensure that the Contractor is afforded a fair opportunity to be considered for the Task Order.
6.0 Step 6. Repair, Construction or Design-Build
6.1 After the Task Order Contractor develops quality control (QC) and safety plans, and the parties conduct a pre-work conference at the site, the Government will issue the Task Order Contractor a “Notice to Proceed” with the Task Order to perform the construction/repair/renovation, or design-build project.
6.2 The Task Order Contractor will then proceed with the work in accordance with the approved work plan, when applicable, the Statement of Work, or definitized design. The COR will provide the on-site contract administration and quality assurance of the Task Order Contractor.
The COR will approve the work and certify the Task Order Contractor’s payment invoices.
6.3. Contract Modifications. Modifications to Task Orders will be priced on the basis of fair and reasonable costs to the Government. Where Task Orders were issued on a Sole Source basis, the modifications to these Task Orders may utilize, as a basis, prices equal to or less than (but shall not exceed) the applicable CLIN prices reflected in the contract CLIN schedule; with prices not covered by CLINs being in accordance with the Federal Acquisition Regulations, Part 31, COST PRINCIPLES AND PROCEDURES. The proposed prices will be subject to negotiations where the COR determines that the proposed prices are not fair and reasonable for the work involved.
For Task Orders issued on a competitive basis, where the use of the CLINs were required in the original Solicitation CLIN Schedule, pricing of change orders/modifications to these Task Orders, shall utilize applicable CLIN prices which are reflected in the contract CLIN Schedule. Therefore, all Offerors or successful awardees are hereby notified that field overhead rates and markups, which exceed the costs shown in the contract CLIN Schedule will not be utilized or considered in pricing change orders/modifications. For Task Orders issued on a competitive basis, where the use of the CLINs were not required, pricing of
Section 01 00 04 - Page 8 of 8 modifications will be in accordance with the Federal Acquisition Regulations, Part 31, "COST
PRINCIPLES AND PROCEDURES."
7.0 Step 7. Turnover and Closeout
7.1 The final step will be the acceptance of the project by the Government, turnover to the Installation and closeout of the project Task Order. Deliverables to the customer may include O&M documentation and manuals, O&M training, warranty information and as-built drawings.
7.2 In accordance with FAR 36.201, the Contractor's or Contractors' performance will be evaluated upon completion of each Task Order of $750,000 or more; at the end of the Base Contract period; and at the end of each Option twelve month Ordering Period. As an alternative, the Contractors' performance may be evaluated upon completion of work on several small Task Orders with a combined total dollar value of $750,000 or more. Interim evaluations may be prepared at any time during contract performance when determined to be in the best interests of the Government. The individual Task Order evaluations will be prepared by the COR, with Contracting Officer approvals required for any ratings of Marginal and Unsatisfactory (Interim and Final) and Outstanding (Final).
