Section 00 22 00 - Phase 1 of 2 Phase Design Build Selection Process

EVALUATION CRITERIA PHASE 1

SECTION 00 22 00

PHASE 1 OF 2 PHASE DESIGN-BUILD SELECTION PROCEDURES

1.0 OVERVIEW OF PHASE 1 AND PHASE 2 SELECTION PROCEDURES

1.1 P hase 1. The first phase consists of a process known in commercial design-build (DB) as the “Request for Qualifications” or the acronym: “RFQ”. This solicitation refers to it as “Phase 1”. In Phase 1 of the 2-phase selection procedure, interested firms or joint venture entities (referred to as “Offerors”) submit specified performance capability proposals, demonstrating their capability to successfully execute design-build construction and design-bid-build construction contracts resulting from this solicitation. The Government will evaluate the performance capability proposals in accordance with the criteria described herein and will select no more than five (5) of the highest rated Phase 1 Offerors to compete for the MATOC contracts in Phase 2.

1.2 P hase 2. In Phase 2, the selected Offerors will submit proposals in accordance with the Section 00 22

20 PHASE 2 DESIGN-BUILD SELECTION PROCEDURES AND BASIS OF AWARD.

1.3 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.

1.4 P roposal Submissions and the Trade-Off Process. This process permits tradeoffs among cost or price and non-cost factors and allows the Government to accept other than the lowest-priced proposal.

Offerors submit their performance and capability information for review and consideration by the Government. For those Offerors selected to compete during Phase 2, relative importance among technical factors are provided in Section 00 22 20 PHASE 2 DESIGN-BUILD SELECTION PROCEDURES AND BASIS OF AWARD. The Source Selection Evaluation Board (SSEB) reviews, evaluates, and rates the proposals against the source selection criteria in the RFP. A competitive range consisting of the most highly qualified technical Offerors will be established prior to discussion (if held). The SSEB will review, evaluate and rate the initial task order project technical proposals against the source selection criteria in the RFP for those Offerors included in the competitive range. Concurrently, the Government analyzes price proposals of Offerors utilizing the initial task order project cost proposal. Price will not be rated, but will be a factor in making the final best-value determination for award. The Source Selection Authority (SSA) compares proposals to one another and determines the best value for the government. The perceived benefits of the higher priced proposal must merit the additional cost, and the rationale for tradeoffs must be documented.

1.5 I nitial Task Order Project. Those Offerors selected to compete during Phase 2 of the solicitation shall submit Technical and Cost (Price) proposals for the initial task order as part of Phase 2 Proposal submittals.

See Section 00 22 20 PHASE 2 DESIGN-BUILD SELECTION PROCEDURES AND BASIS OF AWARD. The scope of work for an initial task order project will be provided to Phase 2 Offerors in Section 01 10 00 TASK ORDER STATEMENT OF WORK. The initial task order project cost proposal will be used to evaluate price for the basic MATOC contracts. The best value initial task order may be awarded to one of the most highly-rated contractors on the MATOC pool if it is in the best interest of the Government.

1.6 T ask Orders. Fixed-price task orders shall normally be issued bilaterally against this MATOC.

Individual task orders will be competed among the contracts awarded under this MATOC pursuant to FAR 16.505. Generally, award will be made to the contractor that provides the best value to the Government, unless otherwise indicated. Source Selection decisions will not be subject to the

Disputes Clause of this MATOC (FAR 52.233-1 or its Alternate).

1.7 P erformance of Work. If the Contractor is awarded a contract, the contractor shall perform work in accordance with Section 00 10 00 DESCRIPTION/SPECS/WORK STATEMENT, with the Scope of Work provided with each Task Order (Section 01 10 00 TASK ORDER STATEMENT OF WORK), and with strict accordance with the terms and conditions specified within the RFP and each Task Order.

• ENVIRONMENTAL – Ability to provide removal and disposal of asbestos, lead-based paint, and other hazardous

TO OFFERORS. If the O fferor is a joint venture, each firm shall provide information, demonstrating experience relevant to their role on this project. Offeror shall provide a copy of the joint venture agreement or letters of commitment for all teaming contractors, agreements and letters of commitment will not count towards the page limitations. Submit projects that are currently well underway (designed and at least 50% construction progress completed) or completed and turned over no longer than five (5) years preceding the date of this solicitation. Offerors shall provide project information on a minimum of three (3) but no more than five

(5) completed or substantially complete projects, of which two (2) projects submitted can be currently under construction, that reflect experience in the construction elements referenced in Section 00 10 00 DESCRIPTION/SPECS/WORK STATEMENT, paragraph

5.1.3 The Offeror should describe any previous teaming experience between current team members, if not described in the p roject list. The above information is limited to projects that are well underway or that have been completed and turned over no llonger than the past six (6) years preceding the date of this solicitation.

5.1.4 Total page count for Factor 1 shall not exceed 12 pages.

5.2 EVALUATION CRITERIA

The Government will review the projects provided by the Offeror to evaluate and rate the recent relevant specialized experience of the Offeror with similar projects. Experience with task order contracts may be demonstrated by provision of individual task orders in the experience form that meets the submission requirements as outlined in paragraph 5.1.1. If the Offeror cannot provide suitable relevant experience and the evaluators consider the information provided indicates that the Offeror has no relevant experience, a determination will be made as to the risk this lack of corporate experience presents to the Government; and the proposal will be evaluated accordingly. The experience of individuals will not be evaluated under this factor.

The Government will evaluate the extent of recent, related experience of the Contractor in crane construction and/or design-build projects. Experience on the similar projects identified in Section 01 00 00 SUMMARY OF WORK will receive more consideration than experience provided in the supplemental narrative. The Government will place greater importance on projects performed as a prime contractor than as a subcontractor.

To determine strengths and weaknesses, the agency will give more consideration to the following:

a. Projects designed for and constructed for the Corps of Engineers.

b. Projects with a value of $4 million or greater.

c. Fully completed projects rather than substantially complete projects. Per paragraph 5.1.1 above, "substantially complete" projects represent "...designed and at least 50% construction progress

d. Projects completed after 2017.

e. Projects that demonstrate experience of the prime contractor personnel proposed in Factor 4 in the same role as their proposed role on this MATOC.

f. Project examples demonstrating prior teaming experience of the prime construction contractor and the design firm to include demonstrated experience of the designer’s personnel proposed in Factor 3 in the same role as their proposed role on this project.

To receive credit for items g and h the contractor shall clearly indicate on the Specialized Experience forms that the proposed personnel on this project acted in the same role on the submitted project. Additionally the key personnel resumes shall show the projects submitted under this Factor indicating that they served in the same role as is being proposed for this project. Failure to provide these cross references shall result in no credit being given for items g and h.

5.2.1 The Offeror must submit the requested information to demonstrate a record of recent, related experience which may include similar state or local government or private counterparts, as described in 00 10 00 SUMMARY OF WORK, paragraph 1.1. Recent experience includes projects well underway (see above criteria) or those completed and turned over within six (6) years of the proposal issue date for this RFP. Joint Venture partners or teaming 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. If any of the information required is not included in the forms, then the Contractor will be considered non-responsive and evaluated as unacceptable.

5.2.2 The Government reserves the right to verify the experience record of cited projects or other recent projects by reviewing Past Performance Information Retrieval System (PPIRS), Construction Contractor Appraisal Support System (CCASS), Federal Awardee Performance and Integrity Information System (FAPIIS), Electronic Subcontract Reporting System (eSRS), other databases; or interviews with Program Managers, Contracting Officers, and Fee Determining Officials; and the Defense Contract Management Agency or to interview owners or references. The Government may check any or all cited references to verify supplied information.

5.2.3 To receive credit for extent (amount) of experience, the Offeror 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. If Offeror represents the combining of two or more companies for the purpose of this RFP, the proposal shall clearly identify the contractual responsibilities of each firm and the work to be performed by each; describe the nature of the association; indicate whether the firms have experience working together in construction ventures, including how long and how many projects. In addition, each company, including joint ventures, shall list their Government contract experience. Provide a copy of the commitment letter of the firms (see Attachment 5) or the Joint Venture Agreement.

5.2.4 The Government will consider extent of recent experience, degree of relationship of such experience to the projects as described in 00 10 00 SUMMARY OF WORK, paragraph 1.1, demonstrated familiarity with applicable codes and local conditions.

Some examples of relevancy to this project may include, but not be limited to:

a. Number, size, type work, complexity, location.

b. Dates (well under way or completed no more than 6 years preceding date of this solicitation).

c. Firm's role and extent of work self-performed (brokering out all work and simply “placing the sidewalks” on a cited project are examples of less relevant experience).

5.2.5 Projects submitted have the following characteristics (combined between all projects submitted):

Five (5) or more disciplines/trades;

Included design, manufacturing, and installation experience as defined in this RFP and as described in Section 01 00 00 SUMMARY OF WORK paragraph 1.1;

Included painting (including lead paint) experience;

5.2.6 Previous design-build experience is not necessary for an acceptable rating. The Government may consider previous DB experience a strength. Similarly, the Government may consider previous recent teaming experience among the team members as value added. The more relevant the experience, the more credit will be given.

6.0 TAB C – FACTOR 2 – PAST PERFORMANCE

6.1 SUBMISSION REQUIREMENTS:

6.1.1 There is no page limit for this factor. For each of the projects submitted under Factor 1, to ensure the agency has all relevant past performance information, the offeror shall submit copies of Federal/DoD/Navy/Army performance reviews that are likely already in the agency’s databases or likely within the agency’s arm’s reach, i.e. Contractor’s copy of CCASS or CPARS evaluations.

6.1.2 For each project under Factor 1 that does not have a CPARS evaluation, offerors shall provide a Past Performance Questionnaire form PPQ-0 (Attachment 2) to a representative of the owner that can provide the owner’ s opinion of the offeror’ s past performance for the project. The Past Performance Questionnaire (Form PPQ-0) 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. Offerors should organize all Past Performance Information based on the Factor 1 Projects, which normally have project titles and are numbered 1-5, so that reviewers can match the owner’ s opinion with the corresponding Subfactor 1 Project.

6.1.3 Form PPQ-0 at Attachment 2 shall be utilized and offerors shall submit the PPQ with their proposal submission to the Contracting Office designated proposal submission location. The contract specialist or Contracting Officer will not require the PPQ to be sent directly from the client. The offeror may submit the completed PPQ-0. 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, 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 Government’ s point of contact Shawn Brady via email shawn.brady@usace.army.mil prior to proposal closing date. If you have questions regarding the attached questionnaire, or require assistance, please contact the Contract Specialist at 918-669-7670.

6.1.4 Offerors should organize all Past Performance Information based on the Factor 1 Projects, which normally have project titles and are numbered 1-5, so that reviewers can match the owner’s opinion with the corresponding Factor 1 Project. No additional information may be submitted under this factor, unless the Offeror is submitting proposals as a Joint Venture in which case the offeror shall provide the brief narrative as described in paragraph 6.1.15 below. Inclusion of additional information or failure to organize the past performance information in the same order as submitted under Factor 1 will result in the contractor being found unacceptable and may result in the contractor being removed from further consideration.

6.1.5 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.

6.1.6 The offeror is responsible for ensuring that the completed questionnaires are submitted by the closing date.

6.1.7 The Government will evaluate the responses from the customers from which Past Performance Questionnaires have been received. The Government may contact and interview points of contact on the Past Performance Questionnaires. The Government reserves the right to interview other individuals acting for the listed references, if the listed reference is not available. In addition to the above, the Government may review any other sources of information for evaluating past performance.

6.1.8 Past performance information may be obtained from any other sources available to the Government, to include, but not limited to, the Past Performance Information Retrieval System (PPIRS), Construction Contractor Appraisal Support System (CCASS), Federal Awardee Performance and Integrity Information System (FAPIIS), Electronic Subcontract Reporting System (eSRS), or other databases; interviews with Program Managers, Contracting Officers, and Fee Determining Officials; and the Defense Contract Management Agency.

6.1.9 To improve accuracy of database searches, the offeror will also provide the CAGE Codes for the prime contractor and all teaming partners, i.e. key subcontractors, Joint Venture Partners, whose experience is being relied on in Factor 1.

6.1.10 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.

6.1.11 No additional past performance information shall be submitted under this Factor. Offers that violate this rule unnecessarily delay the evaluation process and will be evaluated as unacceptable and may result in the contractor being removed from further consideration.

6.1.12 Joint Venture Submission Requirements:

6.1.13 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 under Factor 1.

6.1.14 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 a minimum requirement of two (2) projects, to include any performed as the JV.

6.1.15 If the JV has no "recent", "relevant" projects performed by the JV, then each member of the JV must provide two (2) to three (3) "recent", "relevant" projects performed by the JV member that reflect the JV member's experience commensurate with their role on this project or how their experience qualifies them for their role on this project as required under Factor 1. In such instances the combined experience projects, submitted by each member of the JV, shall not exceed the maximum number of projects stated in paragraph 5.1.1.

6.1.16 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 and how the presented projects demonstrate the JV member's experience commensurate with their role on this project or how their experience qualifies them for their role 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.

6.1.17 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.
