Section 00100 - Bidding Schedule / Instructions to Bidders

INSTRUCTIONS TO OFFERORS

1. BASIS FOR AWARD.

A. General.

(1) This solicitation is an unrestricted competitive acquisition using Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) source selection process for the award of a firm fixed-price contract. Award will be made on the basis of the lowest evaluated price of proposals meeting or exceeding the acceptability standards for non-cost factors. This acquisition will utilize FAR Part 15 LPTA source selection procedures, leading to selection of the proposal representing the best value to the Government.

(2) The Government intends to make an award without discussions, but reserves the right to conduct discussions should discussions prove to be necessary or advantageous to the Government. Because the Government does not intend to hold discussions Offerors are encouraged to include their best pricing in their initial proposal.

(3) In the context of this proposal, the “Offeror” refers to the proposed prime contractor. A major subcontractor is defined as a subcontractor that the Offeror proposes to perform 25% or more of the work required under the solicitation. The Offeror may submit the experience of major subcontractors in order to demonstrate that the Offeror meets the RFP requirements below.

(4) All proposals received will stand alone and be considered complete and final. The evaluation board will not consider any information or data incorporated by reference or otherwise referred to. The successful Offeror will be selected solely on the basis of the evaluation factors set forth below. Accordingly, proposals submitted in response to this solicitation should provide clear, complete, concise, and straightforward responses to the evaluation factors. Elaborate proposals, color brochures, and other excesses are discouraged.

(5) Joint Ventures (JV) A joint venture is defined as follows: a legal business entity formed between two or more companies (parties) to undertake the performance activities of a contract together. This does not include other arrangements such as “teaming agreements” or “strategic alliance” which are not recognized as bona fide joint ventures for the purposes of this solicitation. A company that is part of a joint venture shall submit a legally binding joint venture agreement. Joint ventures shall include a copy of the legal joint venture agreement signed by an authorized officer from each of the firms comprising the joint venture with the chief executive of each entity identified. If submitting a proposal as a joint venture, the experience and past performance of each of the joint venture partners can be submitted for the joint venture entity. The experience for each joint venture partner will be considered the experience of the joint venture entity. Page and project form limits apply to the joint venture as a whole.

(6) Subcontracting Plan (Large Businesses Only). Proposals from large businesses, as defined by the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code, will be rated on the extent to which Small Businesses (SBs), Veteran-Owned Small Businesses (VOSBs), Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses (SDVOSBs), HUBZone Small Businesses, Small Disadvantaged Businesses (SDBs), and Woman-Owned Small Businesses (WOSBs) would be utilized in the performance of this proposed contract. The plan must include realistic goals and demonstrate a track record of consistently meeting those goals in order to be acceptable. The Subcontracting Plan will be evaluated as acceptable or unacceptable.

Award cannot be made before a firm provides an acceptable subcontracting plan.

B. Evaluation Ratings

(1) The principle objective of the evaluation process is to make award of a contract to the responsible Offeror whose proposal is determined to be the “best value” to the Government, price and other factors

00100-1 considered. An evaluation of acceptability will be performed on each proposal in accordance with FAR 15.101-2, Lowest Price Technically Acceptable Source Selection Process. Award will be made on the basis of the lowest evaluated price of proposals meeting the acceptability standards of non-cost factors.

Tradeoffs are not permitted. The failure of a proposal to meet any of the acceptability standards for non-cost factors will result in a technically unacceptable rating and thus preclude award.

(2) A Technical Proposal will be rated as “Acceptable” or “Unacceptable” based upon whether it demonstrates the minimum requirements of the RFP.

Table 1. TECHNICAL Acceptable/Unacceptable RATINGS

RATING DESCRIPTION

Acceptable Proposal meets the requirements of the solicitation.

Unacceptable Proposal does not meet the requirements of the solicitation.

Table 2. Past Performance Acceptable/Unacceptable Rating Method

Adjectival Rating DESCRIPTION

Acceptable Based on the Offeror’s performance record, the Government has a reasonable expectation that the Offeror will successfully perform the required effort, or the Offeror’s performance record is unknown. (See note above)

Unacceptable Based on the Offeror’s performance record, the Government does not have a reasonable expectation that the Offeror will be able to successfully perform the required effort.

2. SUBMISSION OF PROPOSALS

A. Administrative Details and General Instructions: Proposals are due no later than the time and date specified in Block 13 of Standard Form 1442.

(1) General Proposal Format. Submit each copy of the proposal in tabbed, 3-ring binders with a “D” ring or locking closures.

Title Page. Each copy must include the Offeror’s name and address, phone number and email address, title of the solicitation, solicitation number and date of submittal clearly identified on the front cover of the binder.

Table of Contents. Each binder of the proposal shall contain a detailed table of contents. The complete table of contents shall be included in each binder.

Printed Matter Submissions. Pages containing text are expected to be 8 ½ x 11 inches with at least one-inch margins at the top, bottom, and both sides. Paragraphs should be separated by at least one blank line. A standard 11-point font in either Arial or Times New Roman fonts are required.

Organization charts or schedules. A folded 11” x 17” format may be used. Larger format drawings or tables may be added by folding them to fit within the binder.

00100-2

All information must be confined to the appropriate volume. If the materials do not fit within a single volume, they should be separated in additional binders, but clearly identified as such. Each volume of the proposal is expected to contain a table of contents, summary section with a brief abstract of the volume, and the narrative discussion.

THE OFFEROR SHALL SUBMIT AN ELECTRONIC VERSION OF EACH PROPOSAL. The electronic version shall be on a readable CD. Any discrepancies between the electronic and paper copies shall give precedence to the paper copy.

(2) Proposal Content Limitations.

The Offeror must confine the proposal to relevant information and documentation sufficient to provide an adequate basis for evaluation. Offerors are responsible for including sufficient details, in a concise manner, to permit a complete and accurate evaluation of the proposal. The page count is at the discretion of the Offeror, however, the Volume I – Technical (Non-Price) proposal may not be more than 25 pages total.

The evaluation panel for the Government is instructed to evaluate the non-price proposal factors on the basis of the information provided. Extraneous information provided in the proposals will not be considered in the evaluations; therefore, the Offeror should only provide information that satisfies the solicitation requirements. Merely restating the specifications without sufficient elaboration demonstrates a lack of understanding of the requirement.

DO NOT cross reference past performance information. It is acceptable to repeat data, project information or experience in more than one non-price area as long as it satisfies the requirements of the factor.

Proprietary information must be clearly marked.

B. Content of Proposals: All proposals must be prepared in two (2) volumes: A technical proposal (Volume I) and a price proposal (Volume II). Each of the volumes shall be separate and complete in itself so that evaluation of one may be accomplished independently from evaluation of the other. The technical proposal must not contain reference to price. The narrative and content structure of the proposal shall follow the format shown in the table for Volume I below. Offeror’s who fail to submit a complete proposal may be excluded and thus receive no further consideration for award.

(1) Technical Proposal, Volume I: Provide one (1) original and four (4) copies and one (1) .pdf file on a CD-ROM. Volume I shall consist of information for the three (3) factors listed in tabular form, as noted below. Repeating or restating the specifications without sufficient elaboration will be determined to show a lack of understanding of the requirement.

Volume I – Technical (Non-Price) Factors:

Tab 1 – Factor 1: Experience

Tab 2 – Factor 2: Past Performance

Tab 3 – Factor 3: Stone Procurement

(2) Price Proposal, Volume II: The Price Proposal shall be submitted on one (1) original copy and one

(1) .pdf file on a CD-ROM. Contractors shall provide pricing and complete all line items on Standard Form 1442 (SF 1442). Your price proposal must be prepared in accordance with below paragraphs and must include:

00100-3

Tab 1 - SF1442, Solicitation, Offer, and Award.

The SF1442 shall be filled out completely by the Offeror and signed by an official that is authorized to bind the company. The Offeror shall also acknowledge all amendments to the solicitation in accordance with the instructions on the Standard Form 30 or Block 19 of SF1442.

Tab 2 – Section 00010, Proposal Price / Bid Schedule.

The Offeror shall fully complete this section.

Tab 3 – Representations, Certifications and other Statements of Offeror’s.

The Offeror shall complete all representations and certifications in Section 00600 and also ensure current registration and completed/updated Annual Representations and Certifications on the System for Award Management (SAM) website, www.sam.gov.

Tab 4 – Banking and Bonding Points of Contact.

The Government is required to determine Contractor’s responsibility; the Offeror shall provide contact information (company name, point of contact, address, email, and phone number) for the Offeror’s bank and bonding institutions.

Tab 5 – Bid/Offer Guarantee. The Bid Bond shall be at least 20% of the bid price, but shall not exceed $3 million. See FAR Clause 52.228-1 – Bid Guarantee.

Tab 6 - Small Business Subcontracting Plan. (Large Businesses Only) Other than U.S. small business offerors (i.e., large businesses) must also submit a small business subcontracting plan meeting the requirements of FAR 52.219-9 and DFARS 252.219-7003 contained in Section 00700, Contract Clauses. Large businesses must submit acceptable subcontracting plans to be eligible for award.

Subcontracting plans shall reflect and be consistent with the commitments offered in the Small Business Participation Plan.

Annual Subcontracting Report. Large businesses shall provide a completed subcontracting plan and most recent annual subcontracting report.

A model subcontracting plan is included as an attachment to this solicitation. For information on the evaluation of subcontracting plans, see Army Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement (AFARS), Appendix DD.

C. Submission of Proposals: Proposals must arrive at the location designated in the RFP for receipt of such proposals prior to the time and date established in Block 13, SF 1442. There will not be a public proposal opening. In order for the proposal to be considered, it MUST be prepared in ENGLISH, and must be submitted as a hardcopy original (Volume I and II) and four (4) copies (Technical Volume I only) with the required electronic CD-ROM:

Number of each amendment that has been received: _________

3. EVALUATION FACTORS

Volume I – Technical (Non-Price) Submission Requirements and Evaluation Method:

FACTOR 1 (TAB 1) – Experience

Submission Requirements:

The Offeror shall submit information for one completed project that demonstrates the Offeror’s experience completing a jetty or breakwater project that consisted of placement of at least 10,000 tons of stone, of which at least some of the stones were 10 tons or greater in mass.

Information submitted for each project must include the information outlined in Attachment A13, Offeror’s Experience Form.

To be evaluated, each project must have been completed within 15 years of the date that proposals are due.

In addition, to be considered, projects must be 100% complete by the date that proposals are due. The Government reserves the right to reject the project if it is not clear from the proposal submission that the project is complete.

A maximum of one project will be evaluated. If an Offeror disregards these instructions and submits more than one project, only the first project will be evaluated for meeting the requirements. Offerors should describe the project with enough detail to ensure that the Government can meaningfully assess whether the project submitted meets the minimum evaluation criteria outlined below.

Note: The Government will consider past experience information of a Project Superintendent from a predecessor company as long as the Offeror proposes to use the same Project Superintendent for this project. Project Superintendent is as defined in technical specification section 01 45 00.00 25, Paragraph 3.1.2.

If an offeror chooses to use a Project Superintendent’s experience to demonstrate the Offeror’s experience under Factor 1 and the Offeror is awarded this contract, the Project Superintendent may not be replaced unless prior written approval is obtained from the Contracting Officer. Approval for replacing the Project Superintendent will only be given if the new proposed Project Superintendent possesses equal or greater qualifications than the Project Superintendent submitted with the Offeror’s proposal.

Evaluation Method:

The Government will evaluate a maximum of one project to determine if the offeror meets or exceeds the minimal requirements of the solicitation. Experience will be rated on an “acceptable” or “unacceptable” basis.

00100-5

Acceptable: To be determined “acceptable,” the Offeror’s proposal must demonstrate that the Offeror has experience successfully completing a jetty or breakwater project* that consisted of the placement of at least 10,000 tons of stone, of which at least some of the stones were 10 tons or greater in mass.

*Revetment projects do not qualify as acceptable experience.

Unacceptable: The Offeror’s proposal fails to meet the acceptability criteria outlined above.

FACTOR 2 (TAB 2) – Past Performance

Submission Requirements:

The Offeror shall provide past performance information for the project listed by the offeror under Factor 1, Experience. Recent and relevant projects are those projects completed** within 15 years of the date that proposals are due that are similar in scope and complexity to the work in this requirement.

Completed is defined as having completed 100% of the project work at the time proposals are due.

If a completed Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS) evaluation is available, it shall be submitted with the proposal. Do not submit a PPQ when a completed CPARS is available.

Completed PPQs should be submitted with your proposal if a CPARS is not available. 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 (Attachment A14), 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 the client requests, questionnaires may be submitted directly to the Government's point of contact, Ryan S. Shoemaker, via email at ryan.s.shoemaker2@usace.army.mil prior to proposal closing date. The offerors shall instruct the clients to refer to the solicitation number in the subject line. The PPQs are Source Selection materials. All successfully submitted PPQs will receive an e-mail confirmation upon receipt. If the offeror does not receive the confirmation, it is their responsibility to follow up to ensure the government has received the information.

Offerors shall not incorporate by reference into their proposal PPQs or CPARS previously submitted for other RFPs. However, this does not preclude the Government from utilizing previously submitted past performance information in the past performance evaluation.

Offerors may provide explanation on problems encountered on past projects and the corrective actions taken by the offeror.

In addition to the above, the Government may review other sources of information for evaluating past performance. Other sources may include, but are not limited to, past performance information retrieved through the 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),FAPIIS, telephone interviews with organizations familiar with the offeror’s performance, Government personnel with personal knowledge of the offeror’s performance capability, 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 Method:

00100-6

The past performance evaluation results is an assessment of the offeror’s probability of meeting the minimum past performance solicitation requirements. This assessment is based on the offeror’s record of relevant and recent past performance information that pertain to the project outlined in the solicitation requirements.

There are three aspects to the past performance evaluation. The first is to evaluate whether the offeror’s past performance is recent. The second is to evaluate whether the offeror’s past performance is relevant or not relevant to the project.

The second aspect of the past performance evaluation is to determine how well the contractor performed on the contracts. The Government will evaluate the offeror’s past performance to ensure previous work performance satisfactorily met the contract requirements, performance schedules, prescribed quality of work, safety requirements, and other customer expectations on these projects.

The Government reserves the right to obtain or verify offeror’s past performance information from references and other sources available to the Government.

Past performance under Factor 2 shall be evaluated using the following rating of an “acceptable” or “unacceptable” basis using the ratings stated in Table 2:

Table 2. PAST PERFORMANCE EVALUATION RATINGS

RATING DESCRIPTION

Acceptable Based on the Offeror’s performance record, the Government has a reasonable expectation that the Offeror will successfully perform the required effort, or the Offeror’s performance record is unknown. (See note below.)

Unacceptable Based on the Offeror’s performance record, the Government has no reasonable expectation that the Offeror will be able to successfully perform the required effort.

Note: In the case of an Offeror without a record of relevant past performance or for whom information on past performance is not available or so sparse that no meaningful past performance rating can be reasonably assigned, the Offeror may not be evaluated favorably or unfavorably on past performance (see FAR 15.305 (a)(2)(iv)). Therefore, the Offeror shall be determined to have unknown past performance. In the context of acceptability/unacceptability, “unknown” shall be considered “acceptable.”

FACTOR 3 (TAB 3) – Stone Procurement

Submission Requirements:

The Offeror shall submit a letter of commitment for each stone source the offeror intends to procure stone from. Each letter of commitment must be on the stone provider’s letterhead and include the following information:

1. The quantities and unit weight for each classification of stone that the stone source is providing to the offeror;

2. Affirmation that the stone being provided to the offeror meets the quality requirements for all classifications of stone, and;

3. Affirmation that the stone source has the required permits necessary to produce the intended stone.

Evaluation Method: The offeror will be rated either acceptable or unacceptable.

Acceptable: To be determined “acceptable,” the Offeror’s proposal must:

00100-7

Include a letter of commitment from each intended stone source, on the stone provider’s letterhead, which includes:

1. A list of the quantity and unit weight for the stones being provided to the offeror, which meet or exceed the following quantities and unit weight requirements, per each stone classification:

i. A-Select Stone Classification: 4,300 cubic yards total contract quantity, 180 pounds per cubic foot unit weight minimum;

ii. A-Stone Classification: 11,000 cubic yards total contract quantity, 175 pounds per cubic foot unit weight minimum;

iii. B-Stone Classification: 21,500 cubic yards total contract quantity, 180 pounds per cubic foot unit weight minimum;

iv. C-Stone Classification: 22,700 cubic yards total contract quantity, 165 pounds per cubic foot unit weight minimum.

If multiple stone suppliers are proposed, the summed combination of stones to be provided by all proposed stone suppliers must meet or exceed the total contract requirements (in quantity and unit weight) for each stone classification, as stated above.

2. Affirmation that the stone being provided to the offeror meets or exceeds the following stone quality standards for all stone classifications:

i. Absorption: Not more than 5.0 percent;

ii. Abrasion (500 revolutions): Not more than 20.0 percent loss (by weight);

iii. Magnesium Sulfate Soundness (5 cycles): Not more than 15.0 percent loss (by weight);

iv. Accelerated Expansion: Not more than 15.0 percent breakdown (by weight) or piece count.

3. Affirmation that the stone source has the required permits necessary to produce the intended stone for the offeror.

Stone classifications for this contract are defined in Specification Section 35 31 26.40 25, Part 2.1.4 Stone Classification.

Unacceptable: The Offeror’s proposal fails to meet the acceptability criteria outlined above.

Volume II - Price.

Price Evaluation

The Price Proposal will be evaluated to determine fairness and reasonableness. For evaluation purposes, the total evaluated price will be calculated by adding the total price for all optional items to the total price for the basic requirement. Evaluation of options will not obligate the Government to exercise the options.

The Government may determine that a proposal is unacceptable if the prices proposed are materially unbalanced between line items or subline items. Unbalanced pricing exists when, despite an acceptable total evaluated price, the price of one or more contract line items is significantly overstated or understated as indicated by the application of cost or price analysis techniques. A proposal may be rejected if the Contracting Officer determines that the lack of balance poses an unacceptable risk to the Government.
