The price proposals will be separated from the technical proposals. Technical proposals will be provided to the designated Technical Evaluation Team and Price Proposals will be provided to the designated Price Evaluation Advisors, with both teams under the direct guidance and oversight of Contracting Officer. Proposal clarity, organization, and cross-referencing are mandatory.

Failure to submit and organize proposals as requested may adversely affect an Offeror's evaluation.

3.0 INTRODUCTION NOTICE TO OFFERORS

This section is designed to provide the Offeror with instructions to complete and deliver a complete competitive proposal in response to this request for proposals (RFP). Oral proposals are not solicited for Phase one (I). The selection procedures to be used will be a two-phase approached IAW FAR Subpart 36.3. The two-phase selection procedure authorized under 10 U.S.C. 2305a allows Offerors to submit information related to specialized experience, technical competence, capability to perform, past performance, teaming arrangements and/or other information requested in Phase I. In Phase I, price is not a submission requirement. In Phase I, the Government reserves the right to reject any and/all offers.

Based on information submitted in Phase I, the Source Selection Authority (SSA) will select from the most qualified Offerors, no more than five (5) small businesses and no more than five (5) firms from the unrestricted pool, to advance onto Phase two (II) in the competition and are subsequently invited to submit price proposals and technical design products as part of the technical proposals for evaluation during Phase II.

The Government is not obligated to award an IDIQ MATOC contract to all offerors competing in Phase II. The Government reserves the right to reject any and/all offers in Phase II.

The proposal determined to be the Best Value may not be the lowest price or the highest technically rated proposal. The decision will involve a comparison and trade-off analysis of the combination of non-cost strengths, weaknesses, and risks, the evaluated cost/price offered in each proposal, and judgment as to which proposal provides the best combination. As a result Offerors must provide their best proposal with all required information in the required format. Information provided must be complete, clear and legible to obtain the best evaluation rating possible.

3.2. Contract Cost Ceiling Limitation for Design and Construction Costs:

The design and construction costs will be subject to the funds available for each Task Order. The current capacity for the design and construction cost for the five (5) year MATOCs is $900M.

The Government will track capacity availability in order not to exceed the $900M.

3.3. The solicitation process is known as the “Request for Proposals” or the acronym: “RFP”. Interested firms or joint venture entities (referred to as “Offerors”) may submit certain specified performance capability proposals, demonstrating their capability to successfully execute the contract resulting from this solicitation.

3.4.

This clause states that the Government intends to make award based on initial offers, without discussions, but reserves the right to conduct discussions with all Offerors determined to be part of the competitive range or those being selected to continue to Phase II, should the Source Selection Authority deem discussions necessary.

3.7. Oral Presentations: The Government may conduct oral presentations after selection of Phase II Offerors.

Location, assigned dates and times for each potential Offeror will be provided at a later date if it is determined oral presentations are necessary.

3.8. Offerors will not be participating in a sealed bid procurement process under this acquisition method. Issuance of this Request for Proposal does not constitute an award commitment on the part of the Government.

3.9 Contract Type: Multiple firm-fixed-price design-build construction contracts requiring delivery and installation are contemplated for this Acquisition.

FACTOR 1 – RELEVANT QUALIFICATIONS & EXPERIENCE (VOL 1, TAB A)

SUBMISSION REQUIREMENT: Page Limit: Five (5) Pages. Submit five (5) project examples that communicate recent and relevant experience completed by the proposed team members. Recent means projects completed, or in progress with at least 80% construction in place, within 5 years from the date of this solicitation.

Relevant means projects that are predominately self-performed on-site by the Prime Contractor and similar to the projects outlined in the following program description:

Most projects (task orders) range between $750K and $75M with an average performance period of 2-4 years. The scope of the work includes “cradle-to-grave” services such as design, construction, outfitting, excessing, moves (aka “transition”), and demolition and will be predominately healthcare facilities such as inpatient care, outpatient clinics, medical research and labs, outpatient rehabilitation, dental, veterinary, pharmacies, etc. Most projects will be required to meet a minimum of LEED Silver certification, range between 20,000-400,000 SF, and involve either multi-phased renovation projects all while maintaining on-going healthcare operations or new construction. It is estimated that approximately six (6) to twelve (12) task orders will be executed annually so contractors may be required to simultaneously delivery multiple projects at different locations. Projects will be mostly for Air Force clients, but other Federal/Department of Defense clients (such as Army) may also use the contract so familiarity with DOD criteria is required. Using integrated project delivery (IPD) principles and Lean processes, the contractors and their partners/subcontractors will be required to work closely with multiple stakeholders to include users, owner and installation representatives, government subject matter experts, architectural review boards, etc.

At a minimum, communicate relevant experience by outlining: the cost of the project (i.e. ><$12M small business, >$12M large), the date of project; performance period and percent complete (i.e. 2-4 years, 80% complete); scope to include facility type (hospital, clinic, dental, veterinary treatment, lab etc.), the work involved (design, construction, outfitting, etc.), and type of work (new construction, renovation, additions); project team to include client &/or agency (Kaiser, USACE, Air Force, VA, Sutter Health, etc.) and types of key subcontractors involved in the execution; and the project delivery method used (DBB, DB, DB via IPD (e.g. IDBIO), CM at Risk, etc.) and criteria used to design the facility.

Offerors representing the combining of two or more companies for the purpose of this RFP must describe the nature of the association; indicate whether the firms have experience working together in design-build-outfitting ventures, including how long and how many projects. If the Joint Venture (JV), or teaming arrangement, has little or no recent and/or relevant projects performed, then each member of the teaming arrangement and/or JV may provide a combined total of five projects. Experience by other corporate entities or JVs not named on the Standard Form (SF) 1442 is prohibited and will not be evaluated.

EVALUATION CRITERIA: The Government will use recent and relevant specialized experience to assess the Offeror’s probability of successfully performing the scope of work described in this RFP. For this solicitation, the government considers the more projects that align with the features outlined in the above program description, the more likely the contractor will successfully perform in this program. Healthcare facility renovation qualifications and experience is more relevant than new construction. Experience with DOD criteria is more relevant than experience with just private industry criteria, and IDBIO plus transition service experience is considered more relevant than experience with other project delivery methods.
