1. 0 OVERVIEW

1.1. This is a “Best Value-Trade Off” solicitation for the construction project entitled Construct KC-46A Two Bay Hanger located at Tinker Air Force Base, OK. The Government will evaluate the proposals in accordance with the criteria described herein and award a firm fixed price contract to the responsible firm whose proposal conforms to all the terms and conditions of the solicitation and whose proposal is determined to represent the overall best value to the Government.

General Description of Work: Construct the KC-46A Two Bay Hanger at Tinker AFB, Oklahoma in accordance with the plans and specification.

2.0 BASIS OF AWARD

The Contracting Officer intends to award a firm fixed-price contract to the responsible Offeror whose proposal the Source Selection Authority determines conforms to the solicitation, is fair and reasonable, and offers the best overall value to the Government, considering all non-price factors described herein, and price. All evaluation factors, other than price, when combined, are considered significantly more important than the price. The Government reserves the right to accept other than the lowest priced offer or to reject all offers. The Government will not award a contract to a Firm whose proposal contains a deficiency, as defined in FAR 15.001. The Government reserves the right to reject any offer if the offer is not in the best interest of the Government.

If awarded the contract, the Offeror shall construct the project in accordance with the plans and specifications.

3. 0 PROPOSAL SUBMISSION REQUIREMENTS AND INSTRUCTIONS

3.1 REQUIREMENT FOR SEPARATE PRICE AND TECHNICAL PROPOSALS.

3.1.1 Each Offeror must submit both a Price Proposal and a Technical Proposal. The Price Proposal and the Technical Proposal must be submitted as separate files. Ensure that each file is clearly marked to indicate its contents; and the identity of the Offeror.

3.1.2 Both the Price Proposal and the Technical Proposal must be received by the closing date and time set for receipt of proposals.

3.1.3 No dollar amounts from the Price Proposal are to be included in the Technical Proposal.

3.1.4 All information intended to be evaluated as part of the Technical Proposal must be submitted as part of the Technical Proposal (Volume 1). Do not merely cross-reference similar material in the Price Proposal, or vice versa.

Also, do not include links to websites in lieu of incorporating information into your proposal.

3.1.5 Deviations, Exception and Assumptions

Deviations and exceptions to the terms and conditions of the solicitation are not allowed. Should the offer include any standard company terms and conditions that conflict with the terms and conditions of the solicitation, the offer shall be deemed “unacceptable” and thus ineligible for award. Should the Offeror have any questions related to specific terms and conditions, these must be resolved prior to submission of the offer. If the Offeror must make any assumptions prior to submitting the proposal, the Offeror shall list and describe in detail the assumptions on the first page of each Tab. All assumptions shall be fully supported with the Offeror’s rationale and shall fully explain the impact, if any, on the performance and/or specific requirement of the RFP. The Offeror shall clearly describe on the Proposal Cover Sheet submitted with the Price Proposal any assumption to the contractual and/or technical terms and include the monetary impact on the solicitation with the price proposal. This information will not be evaluated separately but may impact the evaluation of other factors.

3.2 DISCUSSIONS

The Government does not intend to enter into discussions with offerors prior to making an award. Offerors are encouraged to present their best technical proposal and prices in their initial proposal submission. However, in accordance with FAR Part 15.306, should discussions become necessary, the Government reserves the right to hold them. If this occurs, a competitive range will be determined and offerors notified. The competitive range may be limited for purposes of efficiency in accordance with (IAW) FAR Part 15.306(c)(2).

3.3 GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS.

6.0 VOLUME 1 – TAB B: FACTOR 2 PAST PERFORMANCE

6.1 Submission Requirements:

a. For the projects listed under Factor 1 – Corporate Experience, the Government will query the Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS) to validate past performance ratings on Department of Defense contracts and any other past performance information the Government deems necessary to evaluate a contractor’s past performance.

b. For each project that does not have a CPARS evaluation, Offerors shall forward a copy of the Past Performance Questionnaire (PPQ) included as Attachment 2 to the points of contact responsible for monitoring performance under such contracts. The Past Performance Questionnaire included in the solicitation is provided for the offeror or its team members to submit to the client for each project the offeror includes in its proposal for Factor 1. Ensure correct phone numbers and email addresses are provided for the client point of contact. Completed Past Performance Questionnaires should be submitted with your proposal. 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 2) 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 Contract Specialist identified in Section 00 21 00, Instructions, Conditions, and Notices to Offerors via email prior to proposal closing date. Offerors shall not incorporate by reference into their proposal PPQs previously submitted for other RFPs. However, this does not preclude the Government from utilizing previously submitted PPQ information in the past performance evaluation.

c. The information contained in the questionnaires will be used to evaluate the offeror’s past performance. If any negative past performance information is received, the contractor will be given an opportunity to provide rebuttal. Each contractor should provide at least three (3) past performance ratings. Any rating an offeror has in CPARS for the projects listed under Factor 1 will count toward this requirement. The offeror is responsible for ensuring that the Contracting Officer (KO) has received a minimum of three (3) past performance ratings (CPARS or PPQ) prior to that date/time or has provided written notification to the KO that they have current ratings in CPARS. Entities that have no past customers shall notify the KO in writing, prior to the date and time established for the RFP closing, that they have had no previous clients and that the minimum number of questionnaires cannot be provided. 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. The evaluation form shall be provided to the Contract Specialist directly from the reference. Do not request past performance questionnaires on projects that have final CPARS evaluation. If a past performance questionnaire is received on a project where a final CPARS evaluation exists, the CPARS evaluation will serve as the official rating of record for evaluation purposes.

d. The Government may contact references provided as part of Factor 1 – Experience, for information regarding the Offeror’s past performance on the project and for the purposes of assessing and verifying the scope of the work performed. Offerors should provide accurate, current, and complete contact information for references provided in the project descriptions.

e. Additionally, for each of the projects submitted under Factor 1, the offeror shall provide the final or most recent Individual Subcontracting Report (or SF 294 if report was prior to OCT 2005) prepared for submission through the Electronic Subcontracting Reporting System for government contracts. For non-government contracts, provide planned subcontracting goals and actual subcontracted dollars in terms of total contract dollars for Small Business (SB), Small Disadvantaged Business (SDB), Women-Owned Small Business (WOSB), HUBZone Small Business (HUBZone SB), Veteran-Owned Small Business (VOSB), Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB), and Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) and Minority Institutions (MI).

f. The Government may review any other sources of information for evaluating past performance. Other sources may include, but are not limited to, past performance information retrieved through the Past Performance Information Retrieval System (PPIRS), 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 sources not provided by the offeror.

g. 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.

6.1.1 Joint Venture Submission Requirements. Offerors submitting proposals as a Joint Venture (JV) shall obtain a DUNS number and be registered in the CCR as the offering Joint Venture. The Offeror must provide three (3) to five

(5) "recent", "relevant" projects performed by the JV that reflect the JV's ability to perform the work required in this solicitation as required by paragraph 5.1 “Specialized Experience-Submission Requirements”.

a. If the Offeror cannot provide a sufficient number of projects as the JV to meet the minimum requirement, the Offeror must provide those "recent", "relevant" projects that it has performed as the JV, and then supplement the record with additional "recent", "relevant" projects performed by each JV member in their individual capacities. In such instance, each JV member must satisfy the minimum requirement of three (3) projects, to include any performed as the

JV.

b. If the JV has no "recent", "relevant" projects performed by the JV, then each member of the JV must provide three

(3) to five (5) "recent", "relevant" projects performed by the JV member that reflect the JV member's ability to perform the work required in this solicitation as required by paragraph 5.1 “Specialized Experience – Submission Requirements”.

c. In addition to the examples of "Company Specialized Experience" and "Past Performance Surveys", the Joint Venture shall provide a brief narrative stating the roles that each partner of the Joint Venture will perform on this project. The attached “Specialized Experience" and "Past Performance Survey" forms shall be used by the Joint Venture or the JV partners. Explain how the JV is structured.

d. Verification: The Government reserves the right to verify the experience record of cited projects or other recent projects not submitted by reviewing the Past Performance Information Retrieval System (PPIRS, or other Government appraisal systems or to interview owner or references. The Government may check any or all cited references to verify supplied information. An Offeror will be afforded the opportunity to reply to or explain adverse performance information to which the Offeror has not previously had an opportunity to address.

6.2 Evaluation Criteria:

a. Past Performance evaluation includes two aspects that results in the assessment of the offeror’s probability of performing the requirements stated in the RFP based on the offeror’s demonstrated performance on recent, relevant contracts (Projects at least 50% complete or turned over no longer than five (5) years preceding the date of this solicitation). First offeror’s past performance will be evaluated to determine how relevant a recent effort accomplished by the offeror is to the requirements of the RFP. The relevancy determination will be based on the Factor 1 Evaluation Criteria for Corporate Specialized Experience. Second the offeror’s past performance shall be given a Performance Confidence Assessment based on how well the contractor performed on recent and relevant past contracts. The Government will consider the currency and relevance of the information, source of the information, context of the data, and general trends in contractor performance. If any firm has multiple functions or divisions, the Government will only evaluate past performance of the division or unit submitting the offer or by the team member. Owners/references may be asked to comment on items such as quality of construction, timeliness, management of the work, subcontractor management, including timely payment to subs or suppliers, small business participation, safety, relations between owner and contractor, level of support for such things as as-built documentation, O&M manuals, training, correcting construction errors, warranty work, etc. The Government will target areas covered in the requirements of this proposal including records of conforming to quality, schedule, cost control, customer satisfaction, level of support for such things as as-built documentation, O&M manuals, training, problem resolution for construction errors, warranty work, and safety. The Government will not release the Interview Forms to the Offeror at any time, in order for the Government to solicit candid, unbiased interview comments. The Government also places a higher value on projects, which document successful outcomes and are supported by outside source confirmation, for example, but not limited to telephone interviews with points of contact identified in the proposal, CCASS/ACASS or other agency performance databases, Offeror furnished references, or personal knowledge. The Government also places a higher value on recent relevant projects and projects, which provided particularly difficult or unique challenges and the innovative methods the contractor used to resolve problems successfully. The Government’s evaluation is not limited to past performance information on the cited example projects. Firms without a history of past performance will receive a neutral rating.

b. Each entity (firm) will be rated on its own performance or that of its predecessor, if relevant. An entity may not establish past performance based on the past performance of its proposed key personnel, apart from that of the entity. If the Government does not obtain past performance information for the projects identified by the Offeror and cannot establish a past performance record for the Offeror through other sources, past performance will be rated neither favorably nor unfavorably. The performance risk will be considered “unknown”.
