52.212-2 ADDENDUM

Addendum to 52.212-2

(x) In addition to the items prescribed in Clause 52.212-1, offerors shall abide by the following:

(1) Volume 1

(i) The Government will evaluate all technical data and design characteristics against the salient characteristics listed in the Statement of Work. Any items included by the contractor in addition to the salient characteristics will be evaluated subjectively as is most advantageous for the Government.

(ii) The Government will evaluate the offeror’s schedule in terms of realism and feasibility. Any offeror whose schedule includes delivery or installation beyond 30 September 2017 will be rated as Unacceptable.

(iii) The Government will evaluate each offer for the items described in the addendum to 52.212-1 under each volume, in addition to the requirements set forth in the Statement of Work. Offers that fail to meet the required specifications, or fail to provide a level of detail that sufficiently describes to the Government the solution to the requirement in the respective evaluated criteria, may be rated as unacceptable.

(iv) The Government will evaluate all factors and subfactors submitted in Volume 1 using an adjectival and color rating system. The ratings are described in Paragraph (5) below.

(2) Volume 2

(i) The Government will evaluate the colors submitted in the offer by both technical comparison and by visually comparing them with the suggested colors in the Statement of Work.

(ii) Colors and fabrics submitted in the offer must detail the manufacturer of the color, and fabric.

(iii) Fabrics submitted by the contractor will be evaluated against the criteria set forth in the Statement of Work through both a technical and visual comparison. The comparison will evaluate texture, and pattern, as well as the water repellant, and moisture resistant qualities of the fabric.

(iv) Volume 2 factors and subfactors will be rated using a pass/fail rating system detailed in Paragraph (6) below.

(3) Volume 3

(i) The Government will select the warranty terms that is most advantageous to the Government.

The supplemental warranty item will be evaluated as an optional add item. The Government evaluates add items as to what is most advantageous to the Government in terms of affordability. The Government will evaluate the standard manufacturer’s warranty, and may, at its discretion determine that the supplemental warranty is not to be awarded.

(ii) The Government will accept a Warranty that covers some items of the listed in Paragraphs 3(iii) and 3(iv) below, but is for a shorter duration. However such limited warranties will not be rated as favorably as warranties that are more advantageous to the Government in terms of coverage.

(iii) The minimum warranty that the Government will accept contains:

(a) 5 year coverage of:

(I) Manufacturer defects, both patent and latent (II) Installation defects (III) Defects in workmanship

(b) Lifetime coverage of

(I) Ballistic rating, and protection

(iii) The Government expects that the Warranty items contained in either the Standard Manufacturer’s Warranty, or the supplemental Warranty include the following:

(a) 10 year coverage of

(I) manufacturer defects, both patent and latent

(II) Installation defects and damage

(III) Mold and mildew protection

(IV) Defects in workmanship

(V) Peripheral components including but not limited to: border paneling, fabric, hardware, feet, and coverings.

(b) Lifetime coverage of

(I) Ballistic rating, and protection

(II) UV or other applicable degradation protection

(iv) The Government will rate a proposal more favorably, if the proposal contains a warranty, either standard, or express that includes:

(a) Longer increments of warranty coverage, lifetime being rated highest

(b) Non-contractor controlled movements. i.e. if the Government wishes to have another contractor disassemble the panel assemblies and reassemble them at a different location, the warranty would extend to the new location, to include the ballistic rating, regardless if the manufacturer knows of the moving contractor or not

(v) The offeror may, it its discretion, tailor the warranties to include any aspect of the coverage into the standard, or supplemental warranty in its proposal. i.e. an offeror may propose a 30 year manufacturer’s warranty into the standard warranty, and extend to the lifetime warranty in the supplemental warranty; or, the contractor may include non-contractor controlled movements, but limit the timeline that the warranty covers. The Government will evaluate the warranty for technical acceptability and compare to the price of the add item. The Government will select the warranty that is most advantageous to the Government considering the technical components of the warranty and the additional cost.

(x) The warranties will be evaluated using adjectival and color ratings described in Paragraph (5) below

(4) Volume 4

(i) The Government will rate past performance of the projects submitted and reserves the right to seek additional resources to obtain past performance information.

(ii) The Government will assess the past performance on projects submitted and reserves the right to conduct telephone interviews with points of contact identified in the proposal or to review personal knowledge. In addition, the Government may review any other sources of information for evaluating past performance of the Offeror on the submitted projects and any other previous work. 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 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), Federal Awardee 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.

(iii) The Government will rate past performance using the relevancy and confidence rating system described in Paragraph (7) below.

(iv) The Government will evaluate price by totaling the value of CLINs 0001-0008. This will be the sum of the products of the individual panel cost, and the number of panels.

(v) CLIN 0009 will not be evaluated, however, the contractor must disclose the information requested in the addendum to provision 52.212-1. Failure to include this information may result in a proposal being rated as non-responsive.

(vi) For CLIN 0010, the price of the supplemental warranty will be evaluated as an add item. The price submitted for CLIN 0010 will not be part of the tradeoff, but will be evaluated for reasonableness. If the price of the supplemental warranty is within an allowable budget known only to the Government, it will be considered in the price evaluation. Offers that result in the inclusion of the supplemental warranty will be considered more advantageous to the Government than proposals that do not.

(vii) Pro-forma information will not be evaluated; however, failing to provide complete pro-forma information may result in a proposal being rated as non-responsive.

(5) Evaluation ratings for adjectival descriptions:

(i) The application of a scale of colors or words used in conjunction with the narrative to denote the degree to which the proposal has met the standard for a non-cost factor. After listing proposal strengths, weaknesses, significant weaknesses, and deficiencies, the SSEB will assign an adjective rating to each factor and subfactor (except the Past Performance factor and the Color and

Aesthetics factor and related subfactors; see below in this paragraph for separate discussion), which reflect the Government’s confidence in each offeror’s ability, as demonstrated in its proposal, to perform the requirements stated in the RFP. The risk associated with the proposed technical approach will also be assessed. The adjectival ratings for the combined Technical/Risk evaluation are:

Blue - 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.

Purple - Good: Proposal meets requirements and indicates a thorough approach and understanding of the requirements. Proposal contains strengths which outweigh any weaknesses. Risk of unsuccessful performance is low.

Green - 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.

Yellow - Marginal: Proposal does not clearly meet requirements and has not 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.

Red - Unacceptable. Proposal does not meet requirements and contains one or more deficiencies. Proposal is unawardable.

(ii) If at any level of evaluation, an offeror’s proposal is evaluated as not meeting a minimum requirement [that is, below the level of “Yellow - Marginal)”], this fact may be included in the rating and narrative assessment at that level and each higher level of indentation. Therefore, a “Red -Unacceptable” rating at any level may be carried to the factor level.

(6) Evaluation Ratings for Pass/Fail

(i) The Government will evaluate proposals for using the following factors for pass/fail criteria:

Green - Acceptable: Proposal meets requirements and is in accordance with all the salient characteristics of the statement of work.

Red - Unacceptable. Proposal does not meet requirements, and/or one or more of salient characteristics. Proposal is unawardable.

(7) Past Performance Ratings

(i) Past Performance Ratings assess the offeror’s likelihood of success in performing the requirements stated in the RFP based on the offeror’s demonstrated performance on recent, relevant contracts. Consistent with the DoD Source Selection Guide, there are two aspects to the past performance evaluation (aspects identified below), and one overall performance confidence assessment rating is assigned for each offeror.

(ii) The Government will first assess and rate the relevancy of recent projects accomplished by the offeror to the scope of work required by this contract [aspect number one] for overall application to the performance confidence assessment ratings described hereinafter. This rating is not a separate proposal rating but is only used in developing an overall past performance confidence assessment rating assigned to this subfactor. The past performance relevancy ratings are described below:

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.

(iii) The Government will next consider how well the offeror performed on the contracts [aspect number two]. The Government will determine the relevance of the information by considering the age of the information, source of the information, context of the data, and general trends in contractor performance. With respect to relevancy, past performance on projects with more relevance will typically be a stronger predictor of future success and have more influence on the past performance confidence assessment rating than past performance on projects of lesser relevance.

(iv) At the conclusion of this process of evaluating past performance, an overall Performance Confidence Assessment Rating is assigned to each offeror. The possible ratings, along with their descriptions, are as follows:

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 be able to successfully perform the required effort.

Unknown Confidence (Neutral): 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.

(8) Note that ratings will be applied at the Factor level. Regarding factors with subfactors: subfactors 1 and 2 receive an individual rating which assists the evaluators to assess an overall factor rating (a color-word adjectival rating, as described above), and Factor 5 (Past Performance) receives a “Performance Confidence Assessment Rating.” As these two different rating systems are being utilized for subfactors contained under the same factor, the overall factor rating must reference ratings from both systems in order to properly reflect the utilization of such. Accordingly, on the Individual evaluations, the Factor 1 rating will effectively be expressed as: FACTOR-LEVEL COMBINED RATING OF ___(insert color-word adjectival rating). The subject evaluation worksheet properly details which rating system applies to which subfactor(s). On the Consensus evaluation, the Factor 5 rating will effectively be expressed as: FINAL CONSENSUS COMBINED RATING OF ____(insert color-word adjectival rating____. Factor 1 ratings will be reported to the SSA as such.

STATEMENT OF WORK

STATEMENT OF WORK

United States Army Corps of Engineers Recruiting Facilities Program

Joint Recruiting Facilities Committee Bullet-Resisting Panels

Statement of Work

1.0 Introduction. The Recruiting Facilities Program (RFAC) has a requirement to provide bullet-resisting capability (signifies that protection is provided against complete penetration, passage of fragments of projectiles, or spalling [fragmentation] of the protective material to the degree that injury would be caused to a person standing directly behind the bullet-resisting barrier) for the work spaces inside all identified Military Services (Services) recruiting office locations. The Services are comprised of the following: 1) Air Force; 2) Air Force Reserve; 3) Air National Guard; 4) Army; 5) Army National Guard; 6) Navy; and

7) Marine Corps. The bullet-resisting capability required shall be met with the procurement of bullet-resisting panels certified at a minimum as Level 8, under standard 752 of the American National Standards Institute (ANSI)/Underwriters Laboratories (UL), “Bullet-Resisting Equipment,” to be installed up against existing cubicles. To establish uniformity and continuity of appearance and maximize the use of space for all recruiting Services facilities, the required bullet-resisting panels shall have fabric (on both sides), trim, and design features complementary of the existing cubicles. Note: Each Service will identify the appropriate fabric/trim colors to match their internal office colors.

Definitions:

Panel: For the purposes of this document, the term “panel” refers to the bullet-resisting panels certified at a minimum level 8, under standard 752 of the ANSI/UL. No reference to the term “panel” in this statement of work is intended to be defined as anything other than a bullet-resisting panel.

Location: For the purposes of this document, the term “location” refers to a leased location with an address.

Facility: For the purposes of this document, the term “facility” refers to an individual Services space at a location. The number of facilities at a location will vary from 1 to potentially 7.

1.1 Background. The RFAC has initiated steps to improve security of recruiting facilities. The RFAC intends to utilize freestanding panel cubicle wall partitions to go around the exterior of the current cubicle workstations or desks in order to provide increased protection to recruiters within most off-installation recruiting facilities. It is necessary to have a means of providing the Services facilities with protection within the workplace from the outside or entering threat. It is also necessary that, the panels are to have a standardized appearance within all Services facilities. The color for each Service will be identified to match their existing color scheme in order to maintain the current office branding. The intent is to establish uniformity and continuity of appearance between all Services, maximize the use of space for all Services recruiting facilities, and provide a seamless appearance of the panels. Each Service’s recruiting facility refers to a single Service space at a given location. Most locations will have several Service facilities at a location. For example: A location might have 4 Services present (Army, Air Force, Navy, and Marines). Each Service (Army, Air Force, Navy, and Marines) at this location has their own facility.

2.0 Objectives. The objective of this contract is to provide panels to all identified Services off-installation recruiting offices, located throughout the United States and its territories, which are UL Level 8 or above certified, approved, and produced. The contractor will be responsible for coordinating with all of the Services facility locations to execute shipping, delivery, and full installation as prescribed. The contractor shall complete these tasks while meeting the standards of safety, durability, dimensions, ergonomics, and structural adequacy of the existing cubicle panels, as well as the new panels.

3.0 Scope. The RFAC identified a need for the creation, shipping, delivery, and installation of panels for all identified Services off-installation recruiting offices, located throughout the United States and its territories. These facilities are only in CONUS locations. This requirement entails approximately 900 facilities or less. The Government will provide the quantities actually required at each location. A complete “master facilities” listing with locations and quantities are included in Attachment 2. In accordance with FAR 52.211-16, Variation in Quantity, the amount of ballistic panels may change with the prescribed tolerance located in the referenced clause. Some variation in delivery locations is anticipated in terms of delivery address within a location, however, locations will not change without amendment/modification.

4.0 Contractual Method. The Government expects an award of a Firm-Fixed Price contract. Delivery dates in priority order to be determined by the contractor. However, the 100% completion date is no later than 30 September 2017.

5.0 Requirements. The contractor shall produce panels that are UL Level 8 or above certified. To include shipping, delivery, installation, and warranty, as prescribed below.

5.1 Individual Panel Sections & Overall Panel Sizes within Separate CLIN Structures. The contractor is responsible for the production of UL Level 8 or above panels. Attachment 1 shows an example diagram and pictures of the expected matching look and design of the cubicle panels. Panels are defined within one of the Contract Line Item Numbers (CLIN) listed below. The “L” shaped or straight panel systems will be comprised of different overall sizes as follows: a) Front / straight panel units to be 60”, 72”, 84” and 100” wide x 48” high; or b) Return panels to be 36” wide x 48” high. There may be situations where a freestanding panel will be needed that is NOT in an “L” shape, but a straight overall panel only. The “L” shaped and straight panels are broken down into CLIN’s that are broken down by the optional sizes required for use in conjunction with the master facilities list in Attachment 2. However, within each of the overall “L” shaped panel sizes, there are individual panel section sizes that fit together to create the required overall sizes. The fewest number of individual cubicle panel sections are to be used to minimize the number of panel connections and maximize ballistic protection. No panel section with a width less than 24” (inches) will be accepted. An example floorplan for a recruiting office is provided as Attachment 4 (EACH location will be unique). The diagram provided in Attachment 1 shows an example of the individual cubicle panel section dimensions along with example pictures. These dimensions are listed as follows:

Individual Panel Sections Structure:

i. Individual Panel Section Sizes for 48” High Solution:

a) 48 inches high x 42 inches wide

b) 48 inches high x 30 inches wide

c) 48 inches high x 28 inches wide

d) 48 inches high x 36 inches wide (return)

The UV inhibitor may be a completely opaque material applied on all sides of the panels, or may be comprised of a thin solid material sheets (sealed if necessary) that does NOT allow light transfer / penetration of UV rays to reach the bullet-resistant panels. This inhibitor shall deny any exposure of the panels to UV light that will allow the panels to remain 100% effective into the future. The panels shall remain 100% effective as long as they are being used in the future without degradation from environmental factors. Length and height may have a variance of plus or minus two (2) inches. The finished product shall have a seamless appearance within the workplace as if it were a standard office cubicle wall. If comprised of multiple panels (not to exceed three panel sections across the front / straight side – see CLIN 0001 thru 0008 for additional information), panels shall be joined together prior to installation. The contractor shall provide a panel that provides continuous 100% UL Level 8 or above coverage for ALL sections / panel units. It is the contractor’s responsibility to develop a design that provides the level of coverage required. If applicable, contractor shall also provide ALL necessary special tools for panel unit assembly to EACH Service facility along with the panels for future flexibility and office relocations.

5.1.1.1 The panels, when installed, shall sit flush to the floor, and as level as is practicable considering environmental factors at the location. Trim shall be covering any gaps between the panel and the floor to present a seamless appearance. The panel shall be self-supportive, secure and plumb, and shall resist 100 lbs. of force applied laterally at the top of the panel without tipping or falling over. They shall be capable of absorbing the impact of munitions up to their ballistic rating without collapse not withstanding acts of God. If feet are necessary for panels, they shall be as minimal as possible, have an ergonomic appearance, and not obstruct the walkway. Wheels or casters will not be acceptable as feet. Feet shall not extend more than twelve (12) inches from the panel to ensure safety within the workplace. Feet shall be as unobtrusive as possible, minimizing trip hazards. They should be flat on one side, not to exceed one (1) inch in thickness and shall extend no more than 12 inches from the panel giving the capability to slide the panel under a desk or possibly another cubicle wall. If feet cannot be flat, they should be as thin as practicable while still providing adequate stability and support. Feet shall be independently removable to allow maximum mobility and installation options in the event the panels need to be installed up against a wall or in an open area in the office as a stand-alone. See Attachment 5 for examples of feet envisioned, but not required, by the Government. Due to the potential weight of the panels, the contractor may need to use feet that are in the shape of a triangle for adequate support / stability. The contractor may suggest other panel feet alternatives that will provide the criteria, flexibility and stability characteristics described above.

5.1.1.2 Contractor shall design the front of the cubicle and side return to ensure coverage. If the front wall bullet-resisting coverage of the panel unit is comprised of multiple panel sections, the design for front coverage (currently cubicle panel sections a-c) shall not exceed three (3) panel sections. Specifics on maximum number of panel sections is contained within each CLIN). For ALL panel walls, there shall be no gap in bullet-resisting coverage; therefore, as addressed in 5.1.3, split panels shall be connected with full UL Level 8 or above material and certified in accordance with ANSI/UL 752, “Bullet-Resisting Equipment”.

CLIN 0001 through 0004 shall have a panel sections across the front which connect to another panel section that will serve as a return, forming an “L shape” panel unit. The corner connection to form the “L” shaped panel unit wall shall not leave a gap in UL Level 8 or above coverage. The panel design shall be compatible with an “L” shaped cubicle workspace with a return wall that is oriented on the left or right. Installation by contractor will attach on the left or right based on the office layout. For CLIN 0005 through 0008, the connections between panel sections shall not leave a gap in UL Level 8 or above coverage. The design shall enable easy installation / connection for the L shape and front/straight panel sections.

5.1.1.3 All panel system sections that comprises the larger panel unit system shall NOT exceed the weight of 180 pounds (representative of a standard two-person lift plus 10% upward adjustment). The overall panel unit design shall have the capability to be easily uninstalled, moved, and reinstalled without the use of a certified/professional installer.

5.1.2 Bullet-Resisting Material. The bullet-resisting material component of the panels needs to be equal to UL Level 8 or above protection level. In addition, the contractor shall provide a panel that mitigates ricocheting, spalling, and splattering in order to prevent secondary injuries in a confined workspace.

5.1.2.1 Panel frames are to be made of metal. All other connections / trim / feet / other pieces being made of metal, plastic or fabric materials as necessary to meet the 100% UL Level 8 coverage, or above.

Exterior panel colors to be approved by the Government. The panels shall be protected from UV or other types of degradation (see paragraph 5.1.1 for specifics). All panel materials shall not pose any health risks to the workspace. If the panel materials are comprised of fibers or chemicals that vent, the materials and/or panels shall be coated to prevent venting. Avoid the use of harmful VOC’s in the production of the panels. Any material that is susceptible to moisture retention shall be coated to prevent mold or mildew. Panels shall be one hour fire rated to ASTM E119 Standard Fire Tests of Building Construction and Materials.

5.1.3 Fabric & Other Exposed Panel Materials. In order to maintain seamless appearance and maintain the Services office branding, the panels shall have fabric, any necessary trim, caps, rails, clamps, tracking, joints, connectors, etc. in accordance with fabric and trim colors in the table below. Manufacturer, style and color information is provided to establish design intent or basis of design, and is not intended to limit the selection of equal products from other manufacturers. Equivalent manufacturer's product may be submitted for approval. Panel fabric shall have a stain repellent finish and meet or exceed the ACT Performance standards of colorfastness to light, flammability, wet and dry crocking, abrasion, and physical properties. Fabric shall comply with a minimum of 100,000 double rubs when tested in accordance with the ASTM D 4157 Wyzenbeek Method. Contractor shall provide as part of their proposal, actual panel fabrics and metal trim colors (to include all available colors within proposed product line), minimum size 3”x 3”, for approval by the government. The table below will be used to provide color selections for each Service to the contractor once the final manufacturer is identified. The colors identified in the table are placeholders until the actual manufacturer is identified by the contractor, and colors are selected by the Government. Panel fabric shall be Design Tex, Brunswick II, or equal.

Fabric shall cover both sides and include the capability to use push pins on both sides, with a tackable core under fabric that is completely opaque to light. Trim shall be equal in color to Sherwin Williams, Mega Greige, SW 7031. Construct panel so finished product looks like a standard workstation panel.

Panel system fabric, trim / connections, glues or adhesion methods used on the fabric or otherwise, shall meet warranty requirements.
