1.0 Description of the Program

The Air Force Medical Support Agency (AFMSA) is responsible for managing the programming, planning, design, construction, outfitting and sustainment for the Air Force Surgeon General’s health facilities program.

AFMSA/Health Facilities Division relies on the support of the US Army Corps of Engineers – Little Rock District

(CESWL) to execute its health facilities program. A means to manage this program is via Indefinite

Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) Multiple Award Task Order Contracts (MATOC). The Health Facilities

Division of AFMSA provides sustainment, repair and modernization support to facility physical plant and infrastructure systems that are installed in Air Force medical treatment facilities worldwide. The physical plant is best defined as any and all major building system(s) that provide a safe, comfortable interior environment conducive to healing. Typically, there are three predominant infrastructure systems which comprise the facility physical plant;

the Building Envelope, the Mechanical Infrastructure and the Electrical Infrastructure. In order to ensure the United

States’ military men and women, and their families, receive healthcare in properly-maintained buildings that meet all healthcare requirements, and Federal, State and Local laws the AFMSA requires experienced contractors that are dedicated and able to fulfill fast-tracked timelines. Timely, swift completion of upgrades and renovations is paramount to maintain quality, safe, infection-free facilities. Work may also include restoration, initial outfitting and/or modernization of HVAC, medical gas, plumbing, electrical, elevators, building envelope, fire protection, interior renovation, terrorism/force protection, and exterior site and systems work such as utilities infrastructure, roadways, sidewalks, parking lots, landscaping, irrigation, etc.

This acquisition will be a firm-fixed price (FFP), indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity (IDIQ), multiple award task order contract (MATOC) utilizing a competitive (8a) set-aside. The estimated dollar amount of the MATOC is

$240,000,000 for a base ordering period of 5 years and no option years.

This is a Two-Phase acquisition. A target pool of five (5) contractors will be selected to provide project support for

EIR healthcare projects.

It is anticipated that on average thirteen (13) task orders will be awarded during the fiscal year. The minimum task order amount is proposed at $100,000.00. The maximum task order is projected at $12,000,000.00. The guaranteed minimum is $10,000.00 per contractor if no task order is awarded within one year.

The proposed contracts will be competitive firm-fixed-price contracts procured in accordance with FAR 15, Negotiated Procurement using the Best Value Trade-Off process. There will be no public bid opening. The

Government will evaluate and select for contract qualified offerors whose proposals are determined to be the most beneficial to the Government, with consideration given to both the technical approach and price. Subsequent task orders will be awarded pursuant to FAR 16.505 - Ordering, and in accordance with the task order terms and conditions including the designated Statement of Work.

In accordance with FAR 36.3, Two-Phase Design-Build Selection Procedures, a two-phase source selection process will be used to evaluate the offerors for award.

In Phase 1, interested firms or joint venture entities (referred to as "offerors") may submit proposals in accordance with Section 00 22 10. The Government will evaluate the performance capability in accordance with the criteria described in Section 00 22 10. Those offerors who are considered the most highly qualified during Phase 1 target pool of five (5) will be requested to submit the proposal requirements for Phase 2.

In Phase 2, the selected offerors will submit proposals in accordance with Section 00 22 20. The Government will evaluate the Phase 2 proposals in accordance with the criteria described in Section 00 22 20, and award to the responsible offerors, whose proposals conform with all the terms and conditions of the solicitation and whose proposals are determined to represent the overall best value to the Government.

Each contractor under the MATOC is afforded fair opportunity for all task order(s) in accordance with FAR

16.505(b)(1) unless excepted by FAR subpart 16.505(b)(2). The request for proposal will identify the requirement of each task order:

b) Past Performance References: For the projects submitted in Factor 3, paragraph a), the government will query the Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS) to validate past performance ratings. For each project that does not have a final CPARS evaluation, offerors shall provide a NAVFAC/USACE Past Performance Questionnaire (Form PPQ-0) to the point of contact, clearly identifying the project to be evaluated. A NAVFAC/USACE Past Performance Questionnaire

(Form PPQ-0) is included at the end of the RFP. When completed, these forms shall be mailed, faxed or emailed to the Little Rock District Contract Specialist identified in the RFP. It is the contractor’s responsibility to ensure that the reference documentation is provided as the Government may not make additional requests for past performance information from the references. Past performance questionnaires must reflect contracts that were 100% completed and at least $4M each in value.

c) Other Sources: The Government may contact sources other than those provided by the offeror for information with respect to past performance on projects completed, or at least 50% complete. These other sources may include, but are not limited to CPARS, telephone interviews with organizations familiar with the offeror’s performance, and Government personnel with personal knowledge of the offeror’s performance capability. The Government may be unable to obtain any qualitative information under subcontracts due to the Government’s lack of privity with subcontractors. Unless otherwise requested by the subcontractor, adverse subcontractor performance information will be provided to the offeror if discussions are held and/or during a requested debriefing.

The Government will evaluate how well the contractor performed on these contracts (See Performance

Confidence Assessment below).

Rating Performance Confidence Assessments

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.

Satisfactory Confidence Based on the offeror’s recent/relevant performance record, the Government has a reasonable expectation that the offeror will successfully perform the required effort.

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.

No Confidence Based on the offeror’s recent/relevant performance record, the Government has no expectation that the offeror will successfully perform the required effort.

Neutral Confidence

No recent/relevant performance record is available or the offeror’s performance record is so sparse that no meaningful confidence assessment rating can be reasonably assigned. The offeror may not be evaluated favorably or unfavorably on the factor of past performance.

See Performance Relevancy Rating definitions below.

Past Performance Relevancy Rating Definitions In performing the past performance factor evaluation, evaluators will apply the following relevance levels to assess the relevance of the prior contract effort(s) of offerors.

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

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

Somewhat Relevant Present/past performance effort involved some of the scope and magnitude of effort and complexities this solicitation requires.

Not Relevant Present/past performance effort involved little or none of the scope and magnitude of effort and complexities this solicitation requires.

The proposals shall contain a detailed table of contents. If more than one binder is used, the complete table of contents shall be included in each. Offers that violate these rules unnecessarily delay the evaluation process and may be rejected by the Government after the initial evaluation without receiving any further consideration. Neither the cover sheet nor the table of contents count toward the page limitations.

DEVIATIONS. Any proposed exceptions/deviations to statement of work, codes, criteria and standards shall be clearly identified. Enumerate as separate and distinct page(s) in the proposal and reference in the table of contents.

FONT SIZE. Shall not be less than 10 point.

PAGE SIZE. Shall be 8-1/2 inches x 11 inches; however, if drawings, charts, or other graphics are submitted, sheets no larger than 11 inches x 17 inches and folded to 8-1/2 inches x 11 inches shall be used. Sheets that are 11 x

17 inch will be counted as two 8-1/2 inch x 11-inch sheets. Presentation boards when provided shall not exceed 20 inches x 30 inches. All sheets shall be dated and numbered.

PAGE LIMITS. Pages will be double-sided and each page shall be identified with the appropriate page number centered at the bottom of the page.

The proposal shall not exceed the specified page limits. The Government may not review any information in excess of the page limits or information submitted in an appendix or attachment to the proposal. The offeror shall not submit verbatim sections of this solicitation as part of their proposal. Offers that do not meet these requirements may be subject to rejection.

NUMBER OF COPIES. Offerors shall submit six (6) copies of their proposal in CD format.

VOLUME 1 – Phase 2 PRICE Proposal

Volume 1 - Price Schedule

Volume 1 - Bid Guarantee

Volume 1 - Representations and Certifications

PRICE SCHEDULE (VOL 1)

Submission Requirement: Submit the properly filled out and executed SF 1442 along with the CLIN schedule for the Seed Project containing the proposed line item and total pricing along with the pricing support schedules. See instructions in Section 00 21 00, Instructions to offerors. All elements of the offeror’s technical proposal shall be included in the total price for the seed project.

Evaluation Criteria: Price will be analyzed using the price proposal submitted for the project. The Government will perform a price analysis after completion of technical evaluations. Price analysis will be performed in accordance with FAR 15.404-1, to determine completeness, reasonableness, and understanding of the work. The evaluation will determine the adequacy of the offer in fulfilling the requirements of the proposal. Completeness addresses the extent to which the elements of the price proposal are consistent with the requirements of the RFP.

Reasonableness will be established using historical price information, price competition information, the IGE, and any other pricing tools necessary. Understanding of the work will be established on the basis of the quality of the offeror’s technical submission as relative to the price submitted and as it relates to completeness and reasonableness.

Prices will be checked for the appearance of unbalanced pricing. The government may reject an offer as non-responsive for an appearance of unbalanced pricing. The government may request a price breakdown at any time during the evaluation process.

Price will not be rated, but will be a factor in making the final best value determination for award.

BID GUARANTEE (VOL 1)

Submission Requirement: Submit Standard Form 24 for Phase 2 Proposals. The provision at FAR 52.228-1 does not apply to the submission of Phase 1 Proposals. Bid guarantees will only be required of those most highly qualified firms submitting Phase 2 Proposals.

Evaluation Criteria: This item is not rated. The Government will review the Bid Guarantee for legal sufficiency.

The Bid Guarantee must be legally sufficient. Failure to submit a bid guarantee may make the offeror’s proposal ineligible for award.

REPRESENTATIONS AND CERTIFICATIONS (VOL 1)

Submission Requirement: Confirm that the offeror’s Representations and Certifications have been completed in the System for Award Management (SAM). Submit the Representations and Certifications not covered by SAM in

Section 00 45 00 of this solicitation.

PROPOSAL EVALUATION

Each member of the Source Selection Evaluation Board will independently consider all information provided in the technical proposal.

Once the individual analyses are completed, the team will meet and determine a rating for each of the evaluation factors by consensus decision.

The evaluation team will document strengths (e.g., advantages), weaknesses (e.g., disadvantages), and other comments (e.g., deficiency and/or clarification) to support the rating for each factor. Documentation and comments are required for all ratings.

The consensus rating and any minority opinions will be provided to the Source Selection Authority for selection and award. The ratings for Technical Factors will be expressed in an adjectival assessment of Outstanding, Good, Acceptable, Marginal and Unacceptable.

ADJECTIVE DEFINITION AND CRITERIA
