Note: Executive Order (EO) 13706, Establishing Paid Sick Leave for Federal Contractors applies to all contracts subject to the Davis-Bacon Act for which the contract is awarded (and any solicitation was issued) on or after January 1, 2017. If this contract is covered by the EO, the contractor must provide employees with 1 hour of paid sick leave for every 30 hours they work, up to 56 hours of paid sick leave each year.

Employees must be permitted to use paid sick leave for their own illness, injury or other health-related needs, including preventive care; to assist a family member (or person who is like family to the employee) who is ill, injured, or has other

Am #0003 CO170012 - 6 11/10/2017 health-related needs, including preventive care; or for reasons resulting from, or to assist a family member (or person who is like family to the employee) who is a victim of, domestic violence, sexual assault, or stalking. Additional information on contractor requirements and worker protections under the EO is available at www.dol.gov/whd/govcontracts.

Unlisted classifications needed for work not included within the scope of the classifications listed may be added after award only as provided in the labor standards contract clauses (29CFR 5.5 (a) (1) (ii)).

The body of each wage determination lists the classification and wage rates that have been found to be prevailing for the cited type(s) of construction in the area covered by the wage determination. The classifications are listed in alphabetical order of "identifiers" that indicate whether the particular rate is a union rate (current union negotiated rate for local), a survey rate (weighted average rate) or a union average rate (weighted union average rate).

Union Rate Identifiers

A four letter classification abbreviation identifier enclosed in dotted lines beginning with characters other than "SU" or "UAVG" denotes that the union classification and rate were prevailing for that classification in the survey. Example:

PLUM0198-005 07/01/2014. PLUM is an abbreviation identifier of the union which prevailed in the survey for this classification, which in this example would be Plumbers. 0198 indicates the local union number or district council number where applicable, i.e., Plumbers Local 0198. The next number, 005 in the example, is an internal number used in processing the wage determination. 07/01/2014 is the effective date of the most current negotiated rate, which in this example is July 1, 2014.

Union prevailing wage rates are updated to reflect all rate changes in the collective bargaining agreement (CBA) governing this classification and rate.

Survey Rate Identifiers

Classifications listed under the "SU" identifier indicate that no one rate prevailed for this classification in the survey and the published rate is derived by computing a weighted average rate based on all the rates reported in the survey for that classification. As this weighted average rate includes all rates reported in the survey, it may include both union and non-union rates. Example: SULA2012-007 5/13/2014. SU indicates

Am #0003 CO170012 - 7 11/10/2017 the rates are survey rates based on a weighted average calculation of rates and are not majority rates. LA indicates the State of Louisiana. 2012 is the year of survey on which these classifications and rates are based. The next number, 007 in the example, is an internal number used in producing the wage determination. 5/13/2014 indicates the survey completion date for the classifications and rates under that identifier.

Survey wage rates are not updated and remain in effect until a new survey is conducted.

Union Average Rate Identifiers

Classification(s) listed under the UAVG identifier indicate that no single majority rate prevailed for those classifications; however, 100% of the data reported for the classifications was union data. EXAMPLE: UAVG-OH-0010 08/29/2014. UAVG indicates that the rate is a weighted union average rate. OH indicates the state. The next number, 0010 in the example, is an internal number used in producing the wage determination. 08/29/2014 indicates the survey completion date for the classifications and rates under that identifier.

A UAVG rate will be updated once a year, usually in January of each year, to reflect a weighted average of the current negotiated/CBA rate of the union locals from which the rate is based.

WAGE DETERMINATION APPEALS PROCESS

1.) Has there been an initial decision in the matter? This can be:

* an existing published wage determination

* a survey underlying a wage determination

* a Wage and Hour Division letter setting forth a position on a wage determination matter

* a conformance (additional classification and rate) ruling

On survey related matters, initial contact, including requests for summaries of surveys, should be with the Wage and Hour Regional Office for the area in which the survey was conducted because those Regional Offices have responsibility for the Davis-Bacon survey program. If the response from this initial contact is not satisfactory, then the process described in 2.)

and 3.) should be followed.

With regard to any other matter not yet ripe for the formal process described here, initial contact should be with the Branch of Construction Wage Determinations. Write to:

Am #0003 CO170012 - 8 11/10/2017

Branch of Construction Wage Determinations Wage and Hour Division U.S. Department of Labor 200 Constitution Avenue, N.W.

Washington, DC 20210

2.) If the answer to the question in 1.) is yes, then an interested party (those affected by the action) can request review and reconsideration from the Wage and Hour Administrator (See 29 CFR Part 1.8 and 29 CFR Part 7). Write to:

Wage and Hour Administrator U.S. Department of Labor 200 Constitution Avenue, N.W.

Washington, DC 20210

The request should be accompanied by a full statement of the interested party's position and by any information (wage payment data, project description, area practice material, etc.) that the requestor considers relevant to the issue.

3.) If the decision of the Administrator is not favorable, an interested party may appeal directly to the Administrative Review Board (formerly the Wage Appeals Board). Write to:

Administrative Review Board U.S. Department of Labor 200 Constitution Avenue, N.W.

Washington, DC 20210

4.) All decisions by the Administrative Review Board are final.

4.1. VOLUME 1 -TAB A – FACTOR 1 - SPECIALIZED EXPERIENCE

4.1.1. Submission Requirements:

The Offeror shall submit ONLY two (2) projects performed by the lead design entity and ONLY two (2) projects performed by the prime construction entity (total of 4). Limit one (1) page per project submitted, with one additional page allowed for describing past teaming experience between current team members, for a maximum of five (5) pages. All projects submitted should demonstrate experience on similar building and site improvement projects of similar or greater value and scope.

Section 00 22 00 Page 6 Am #0003

Similar Commercial or Military type buildings: Office/Warehouse or Company/Squadron level General Operations Facility. Project information shall CLEARLY include:

- Summaries for each project submitted

- LEED certification level/status

- Contract award amount and final construction cost

- Location

- Date when the project was started

- Original contract finish date and actual finish date

- All summaries shall contain the name, address, telephone and email of a representative of the owner (as well as one alternate individual not affiliated with your firm) familiar with your firm’s experience on the project that can verify the experience cited.

- Please do not include extraneous information that was not requested.

The Offeror should demonstrate recent, relevant design and construction experience on similar building projects using, Construction – Specialized Experience Form (Attachment 3) and Designer – Specialized Experience Form (Attachment 4). Offerors may identify other federal government, state and local government and private contracts that are similar to the Government’s requirements set forth in the RFP. If the Offeror is a joint venture, each firm shall provide information, demonstrating experience relevant to their role on this project. Submit projects completed and turned over no longer than five (5) years preceding the date of this Solicitation. [*Am-2] The government will consider projects if completed and turned over up to ten (10) years preceding the date of the Solicitation. The government will also consider projects that are well underway. A project well underway is defined as the construction is greater than fifty percent complete as of the date of this Solicitation. [**Am-2]. If the Offeror has multiple functions or divisions, limit the project examples to those performed by the division or unit submitting the offer or by the team member. Offerors may list government, private or commercial customers. If projects were design-build, so identify them.

4.1.1.1. The Offeror should describe any previous teaming experience between current team members, if not described in the project list.

4.1.2. Evaluation Criteria:

4.1.2.1. The Government will evaluate the extent of recent, relevant experience (projects of similar or greater value and scope) of the construction and design entities in design, construction or design-build, as relevant to their role on this project. Experience on similar projects will be rated more favorably. Federal Government project experience may be rated inherently more important than non-Federal Government project experience. Experience on similar military projects may be rated more favorably than experience on other Federal or non-Federal projects. (Note: After award, the Section 00 73 00 Special Contract Requirement Personnel, Subcontractors and Outside Consultants will apply to the selection, which establishes the minimum quality standard. No substitution will be allowed without adequate justification and approval by the Contracting Officer.)

4.1.2.2. A strength may be given for projects completed and turned over no longer than five (5) years preceding the date of this Solicitation. Projects completed and turned over more than five (5) years before the [*Am-2] Solicitation [*Am-2] date may be considered less relevant and may be rated less favorably.

[*Am-2] Projects submitted that are well underway may be considered less relevant and rated less favorably. [**Am-2] Joint Venture partners should each demonstrate experience commensurate with their role on this project or explain in the supplemental narrative how their experience qualifies them for their role on this project.

4.1.2.3. The Government reserves the right to verify the experience record of cited projects or other recent projects by reviewing the Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS), the Corps of Engineers Construction Contractor (or Architect-Engineer) Appraisal Support System (CCASS/ACASS) or other DOD or Government appraisal systems, or through interviewing owners or references. The Government may check any or all cited references to verify supplied information.

Section 00 22 00 Page 7 Am #0003

4.1.2.4. To receive credit for extent (amount) of experience, the Offeror and its proposed design firm(s) shall demonstrate a history of recent, relevant experience. A firm will not receive credit under this factor for the relevant experience of key personnel proposed for this project while employed at a different firm.

4.1.2.5. The Government will consider extent of recent experience, degree of relationship of such experience to this project, demonstrated familiarity with applicable codes and local conditions.

4.1.2.6. Previous design-build experience is not necessary for an acceptable rating. The Government may consider previous D-B experience a strength. Similarly, the Government may consider previous recent teaming experience among the team members as a strength, even if on different type design and/or construction projects than this project. The more relevant the experience, the more favorably it may be rated.

4.1.2.7. The Offeror should demonstrate qualifications and experience in sustainable design and development and design, based on project experience on projects that have achieved US Green Building Council’s LEED certification. A more favorable rating may be given if both the constructor and the design entities demonstrate qualifications and experience on LEED.

4.2. VOLUME 1 - TAB B –FACTOR 2 - PROPOSED CONTRACT DURATION AND SUMMARY

SCHEDULE

4.2.1. Submission Requirements:

4.2.1.1. Proposed Contract Duration: The offeror shall propose the contract duration in the appropriate location in the CLIN Schedule and should not exceed the benchmark performance duration specified in the CLIN.

4.2.1.2. Summary Schedule: Submit a summary level schedule for integrated design and construction.

Schedules or diagrams may be provided separately in a size that is easily read, but shall be bound and clearly labeled as Tab B. This summary schedule will, after contract award, be replaced with a project schedule as required by Section 01 32 01.00 10: Project Schedule. The schedules shall be task oriented, indicating the number of calendar days, after notice to proceed, by which milestones are to be achieved. Offeror may use a critical path or other method of his/her choice; however, schedules shall be graphically represented. The proposed project schedule shall reflect the proposed contract duration.

Give attention to the following features:

(a) Provide a narrative, describing the design packaging plan for separate design packages, based on the offeror’s plan for fast tracking. Describe all design and construction to be “fast-tracked” (See section 01 30 00.24 OTHER ADMINISTRATIVE AND SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS, "Sequence of Design-Construction"). If long lead item equipment must be ordered prior to completion of a design phase, describe the requirement in the narrative and show the required ordering date in the schedule.

(b) Show the design phase, including events associated with coordinating the interim and final design submittals for each package and the proper handling of the review comments for each design package (See section 01 30 00.24

OTHER ADMINISTRATIVE AND SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS).

(c) Show the overall construction phase for facility, for the site work and for utilities. Show fast track starts for design packages, but it isn’t necessary to show the detailed breakdown construction (e.g., by trades) of each facility, site work and utilities.

(d) Show schedule line items for environmental permits and notifications and utility connection permits.

(e) Show turnover of facility. Identify any proposed phased turnovers. The time to complete the facility and turnover to the Government must consider the requirement for the Contractor’s CQC completion inspection and the subsequent joint Contractor-Government turnover inspection.

(f) Show as-built submissions (See section 01 78 39.00 24 AS-BUILT DRAWINGS).

(g) Constraints: Offeror must demonstrate the capability and flexibility to plan and schedule the complete project to meet the proposed contract completion period. Clearly identify any constraints on the schedules presented (e.g., labor or material availability, permits, weather). Indicate the anticipated overall critical path on the schedule.

4.2.2. Evaluation Criteria:

Section 00 22 00 Page 8 Am #0003

4.2.2.1. Proposed Contract Duration: The Government will evaluate the performance period, as proposed by the Offeror in the Contract Line Item Schedule. In assessing the reasonableness of the proposed contract duration, the Government may take into account how well the proposed summary schedule supports the proposed duration. Evaluators will use their independent judgment concerning logic, constraints and typical construction durations. The Government will rate the proposed duration matching the benchmark duration as “acceptable”. A proposed duration that is longer than the proposed benchmark duration will be viewed as less favorable than a duration that meets the benchmark. The Government will consider an unreasonably condensed contract duration, which places additional cost or schedule risk on the Government or which may create a risk of contract or performance failure, as a significant weakness or a deficiency, depending upon the evaluators' judgment.

4.2.2.2. Summary Schedule: The Government will evaluate the summary schedule for integrated design and construction. The length of the schedule must match the proposed performance duration. A Schedule unreasonably shorter than the proposed contract duration may indicate the Offeror is placing additional risk on the Government for any delays between the scheduled completion date and the required performance completion period. Offerors shall include field overhead costs in the contract price for the full proposed performance duration. The Government will evaluate the schedule to assess the strength of understanding of the project scope, restrictions which must be considered in the schedule e.g., permitting (see Section 01 32 01.00 10 Project Schedule), long lead items, etc. The Government will evaluate the strength of understanding of events associated with coordinating design submittals, reviews and incorporating review comments, the offeror's capability to schedule the complete project within the proposed performance duration and the realism of the schedule. The Government will evaluate the design packaging plan for logic, reasonableness, how it facilitates meeting the proposed contract duration and how it facilitates the Government’s ability to timely perform its design reviews. The packaging plan should minimize risk to the Contractor and to the Government for tear-out and coordination for reviews. A schedule that offers advantage(s) to the Government over one that merely indicates an adequate understanding of the scope, restrictions, major milestones and general understanding of the various events that can affect start and completion of construction will be rated more favorably.

4.3. VOLUME 1 - TAB C – FACTOR 3 - ORGANIZATION/TECHNICAL APPROACH

4.3.1. Submission Requirements:

4.3.1.1. Provide information that describes the offeror’s organization and intended technical approach to executing the design-build contract per the detailed requirements herein. Demonstrate an understanding of the risk management process associated with the design-build process. Limit the information to ten (10) pages or less. Clearly but concisely describe the organizational and technical approach to project management and execution.

4.3.1.2. Organization. List the design and construction entities and describe their resources and how their resources will be utilized, their roles and responsibilities and any contractual arrangements that have been established. Clearly describe any teaming or joint venture arrangements, including a clear description of each entity’s roles and responsibilities on the project. A copy of the teaming or joint venture agreement(s) may be appended to the plan (not included in the page limitation). Include a simple organizational chart, illustrating the organization, including the proposed quality control group(s).

Present a matrix of responsibilities for each entity in executing the key work breakdown structure activities of the project, including design and construction activities for each major feature (i.e., site work, utilities and each building). Identify the design firm(s) chosen for the project, if not to be self-performed. Identify the specific entities chosen as key subcontractors for mechanical and electrical installation. The Offeror shall document unequivocal teaming arrangements with its design entity (ies) and key subcontractors (see attachment 9). Describe the proposed management structure for the team, describing the how the design and construction process will be managed and the authorities and the delegations of authority within the team. Include a key personnel organization chart that clearly depicts the key positions and the names of the personnel, their firm affiliations and their job locations and their job/position title within the organization. The key personnel organization chart shall be consistent with the corporate organization chart, with the matrix of responsibilities assigned to the D-B team entities, and with the list of key personnel to be provided under the Tab, “KEY PERSONNEL CAPABILITIES

AND EXPERIENCE”.

Section 00 22 00 Page 9 Am #0003

4.3.1.3. Technical Approach for Design and Construction. Describe the technical approach to design and construction of the facility. Include any considerations of fast-tracking design and construction, panelized construction, pre-engineered components, etc. The Government is looking for ways to streamline construction and manage labor and other resource constraints in an effort to reduce costs.

4.3.1.4. Collaborative Approach for Design-build. Describe interactions within the team and with the Corps of Engineers during the design. Discuss how the configuration management system will track and control design evolution and changes during design for quality control. Describe the role of the construction team members during design. Describe the type of Building Information Modeling (BIM) system to be used on the project (See section in 01 33 29.00 10ADVANCED MODELING (BIM/CIM/GIS/CAD) REQUIREMENTS and references for CADD/BIM requirements and for Contractor Electives for additional consideration, as described below in the evaluation criteria) and how the team intends to develop and use the model. Describe the role and interaction of the design team with the construction team during construction, addressing, as a minimum, maintaining configuration management of the design during construction, including control and approval of revisions to the accepted design; requests for information; shop drawing and submittal reviews and approvals; progress meetings; site visits, if any; contract completion, closeout, as-built and completion documentation.

4.3.1.5. Planning and Scheduling. Describe the time control capabilities and systems to be used to plan design and construction and how the schedule will be used to manage design and construction.

Discuss internal procedures for handling delays to minimize time growth and “schedule creep”.

4.3.1.6. Self-Performed Work: Generally describe the items the offeror will self-perform to comply with the requirements in Section 00 73 00 for self-performed work.

4.3.1.7. Quality Control. Describe the team’s quality control approach, corporate systems and capabilities to maintain quality control of the design and construction. Describe the proposed quality control organization, including the proposed staffing plan. There is no need to submit a quality control plan as the successful offeror will provide that after award. The Government is interested in demonstrable capabilities to assure and control quality and how the offeror can achieve or exceed the contract’s minimum quality control system requirements. In addition to the required designer-of-record (DOR) roles specified within the RFP for maintaining integrity of the design, describe any other DOR involvement in the quality control process, if any.

4.3.2. Evaluation Criteria

4.3.2.1. The Government will evaluate the strengths, weaknesses and any deficiencies in the plan. The Government will evaluate the firm’s understanding of D-B (and the requirements described in the Division 01 requirements of the Solicitation) and the capability to execute the project. Specific evaluation considerations are listed below.

4.3.2.2. Organization. The Government will evaluate the clarity and strength of the overall organization and how well it is organized, structured and staffed, and the contractor’s ability to exercise management control over their subcontractors, to execute the entire scope of work. This Factor will be rated as unacceptable if the Offeror has not selected and committed to use its design entity (ies). Joint venture participants’ contribution to the organization shall be commensurate with their skills and background.

4.3.2.3. Technical Approach for Design and Construction. The Government places a higher value on an offer that provides proposed methods to streamline construction and manage labor and other resource constraints, in an effort to reduce costs, including such things as fast-tracking, panelization, and standard designs. The Government will also consider whether the approach reduces on-site craft labor and susceptibility to inclement weather delays.

4.3.2.4. Collaborative Approach for Design-Build. The use of 3-dimensional (3D) Building Information Model (BIM) technology in the design process is a requirement. The BIM requirements are described in 01 33

39.00 10 ADVANCED MODELING (BIM/CIM/GIS/CAD) REQUIREMENTS and references. The Government will evaluate the integration of the design and construction entities and the staff during design and construction. The constructor must be actively involved in the design process, not just leaving it up to the designer (see Special Contract Requirement (SCR: "Contractor's Role During Design Process", located in Section 00 73 00).

Section 00 22 00 Page 10 Am #0003

4.3.2.5. The Offeror must have an effective configuration management system to control and track revisions to the design. The Government will evaluate the Offeror’s understanding of the design process and the roles of the designers of record and the Government reviewers. The Government will evaluate the role of the designer in maintaining design integrity throughout the process, including its key roles during construction. The Government places greater value in collaborative development of the Building Information Model as early as possible during the design and construction process. A team that includes subcontractors (e.g., the key subcontractors for electrical and mechanical, the fire protection subcontractor, fabricators, and other major subcontractors and suppliers) during design development, prior to release of the applicable design packages for construction, so that systems and trade coordination can reduce interferences, increase constructability and efficiency of construction operations will be rated more favorably. A team that includes one or more BIM “Contractor Electives”, as described in 01 33 29.00 10 ADVANCED MODELING (BIM/CIM/GIS/CAD) REQUIREMENTS and references may be rated more favorably.

4.3.2.6. Planning and Scheduling. The Government will evaluate the offeror’s scheduling capabilities to manage an integrated design-build schedule. Teams that clearly communicate demonstrated experience in BIM may be rated more favorably.

4.3.2.7. Quality Control. The Government will evaluate the offeror’s capabilities and understanding of the contractually required quality control processes for both design and construction. The Government places value upon continued participation by the designers of record during the construction quality control process. The Government will evaluate the adequacy of the staffing plan to cover all required tasks and responsibilities.
