PROPOSAL SUBMISSION REQUIREMENTS AND INSTRUCTIONS

1. OVERVIEW.

1.1 This Request for Proposal (RFP) solicits for one Indefinite Delivery, Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) Firm-Fixed Price Task Order Construction Contract for the Real Property Services Field Office of the Baltimore District Corps of Engineers. The resultant contract will be a five year contract with a maximum dollar value of $49,999,999.99.

1.2 The award will be an IDIQ contract that will be funded on an annual basis at 20 percent per year ($10M per year). Task orders may be either Design-Build or Design-Bid-Build. The individual projects will be a variety of construction types from mechanical and electrical to new construction. The task orders will range in size and complexity from small to large and from non-complex to non-technical. Projects may be classified or unclassified.

Funding may be either Military Constructions funding (MILCON) or Operations and Maintenance (O&M) funding.

Occasionally, there may be other types of funding that could be utilized if authorized for constructions projects. All task orders will be firm fixed priced task orders. The period of performance for the contract will be five years. A Top Secret Facility Site Clearance is required for the awardee. The offeror successful in obtaining this contract award will be that offeror whose proposal represents the best value and is determined to provide the most benefit to the Government.

Further details regarding this project include the following: This contract is for a broad variety of major and minor repair, modification, rehabilitation, alterations and new construction projects in support of customers in the Intelligence Community, Department of Defense organizations and other agencies that are supported by the Real Property Services Field Office. Further projects may include demolition; geo-technical investigation: infrastructure;

interior fit-up; communications, security, and counter terrorism (including weapons of mass destruction), Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA), and anti-terrorism/force protection (AT/FP) requirements.

Projects may be either Design-Build or Design-Bid-Build. The geographic area for this contract is anticipated to be limited to the Baltimore-Washington corridor but may be used throughout the District of Columbia (CONUS).

Work performed may be either in secure or non-secure sites.

The Contractor and RSFO will be required to respond rapidly to Government requirements with outstanding professionalism and top quality craftsmanship, without compromising safety standards, current mission requirements, and readiness. It is imperative that the Contractor provide a flexible and multi-disciplined work force.

Most of the work to be accomplished will be in areas where classified Top Secret operations are conducted. It is mandatory that the Contractor maintain a balanced work force of cleared Top Secret personnel to work in such areas. Also, it is mandatory that the prime contractor has and maintains an active Top Secret Facility Site Clearance for the prime contractor.

For Design-Build task orders, no separate task order will be issued for design. The coefficient for that task order will be applied to the overall project that will include the cost for the design.

1.3 The purpose of these instructions are to establish a uniform evaluation procedure for the proposals by the Source Selection Evaluation Board (SSEB) and the development of the Best Value Decision by the Source Selection Authority (SSA) using the Trade-Off Process (See Federal Acquisition Regulation 15.101-1). In as much as the proposal shall describe the capability of the Offeror to perform the resulting contract, the proposal shall be specific and complete in every detail as well as be prepared simply and economically, providing a straightforward and concise description of capabilities to satisfactorily perform the contract.

1.4 For the purposes of this solicitation, the Government will utilize a single phase process. At the time of solicitation, a seed project (task order) is not available. If a seed project becomes available during the solicitation phase, the Government reserves the right to add the seed project as a proposal requirement. This may be done at any time during the solicitation phase, to include after a competitive range has been determined, if applicable. If a competitive range has been determined, the seed project will only be made available to those offerors within the competitive range.

2. GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS

2.1 Firms formally organized as design-build entities, design firms and construction contractors that have associated specifically for this project, consortia of firms, or any other interested parties may submit proposals. A design firm or construction contractor may offer more than one proposal by entering into more than one association.

Associations may be joint ventures or include key team subcontractors. Any legally organized Offeror may submit a proposal.

2.2 Contractor Team Arrangements. Contractor Team Arrangements are considered an arrangement in which (1) two or more companies form a partnership or joint venture to act as a potential prime contractor; or (2) a potential prime contractor agrees with one or more other companies to have them act as its subcontractors under a specified Government contract or acquisition program. In accordance with FAR Subpart 9.6, the Government will recognize the integrity and validity of contractor team arrangements; provided, the arrangements are identified and company relationships are fully disclosed in the offer. The Offeror shall identify the major or critical aspects of the requirement to be performed by those identified in the Contractor Team Arrangement. The submission must contain a narrative that clearly explains the relevance to a particular factor of information concerning a company that is part of a Contractor Team Arrangement. The Government will consider the adequacy of this explanation in deciding the relevance of the information to this procurement.

2.3 If applicable, the Offeror shall submit evidence from the Offeror’s SBA Servicing Agency that the Offeror has notified and discussed the proposed joint venture for this project with the appropriate SBA personnel.

2.4 Information submitted about any company other than the Offeror, whether a predecessor company, affiliated company, subsidiary (including wholly owned subsidiaries), subcontractors that will perform major or critical aspects of this requirement, or other associated business, will not be evaluated for any factor unless the proposal contains a detailed narrative explaining why this submitted information is relevant to this acquisition. The Government will consider the adequacy of this explanation in deciding the relevance and weight of the information to this procurement. Information about subcontractors may not be given much weight unless the proposal contains evidence that the subcontractor is committed to perform the work. If information about a subcontractor is properly submitted and given weight during the evaluation, the expectation is that this subcontractor will perform this work.

Before utilizing another subcontractor for this work, the Government must consent.

2.5 SPECIAL NOTE: This contract requires the firm to possess, at the time of proposal and the time of award, an active Top Secret Facility Site Clearance. This requirement is mandatory for the exact entity submitting the proposal. This means that the entity identified in block 14 of the Standard Form 1442 must have the Top Secret Facility Site Clearance in that name along with the matching Cage Code. For example, if Company A and Company B form a Joint Venture called Company AB, then Company AB must have an active Top Secret Facility Site Clearance. Even if both Company A and Company B each individually posses the clearance, unless Company AB posses its own Top Secret Facility Site Clearance, the proposal will not be eligible for award.

2.6 It is the intent of the Government to disqualify any proposal that, at the time of proposal, does not possess an active Top Secret Facility Site Clearance immediately and not further evaluate it.

2.7 Offerors shall submit their proposal to the address shown in Block 7 of Standard Form 1442.

2.8 Proposals are due no later than the time and date specified in Block 13 of Standard Form 1442.

See paragraph 6 below for a discussion of the evaluation criteria applicable to these factors.

4.2 Technical Rating Definitions. The following rating definitions will be utilized in the evaluation of factors 1 and 3:

EXCELLENT: The proposal has exceptional merit and reflects an excellent approach which will clearly result in the superior attainment of all requirements and objectives. This clearly achievable approach includes numerous strengths, and essentially no weaknesses, which can be expected to result in outstanding performance. The proposal provides solutions which are unquestionably feasible and practical. These solutions are further considered to be exceptionally clear and precise, fully supported, and demonstrate a clear understanding of the requirements.

GOOD: The proposal demonstrates a sound approach which is expected to meet all requirements and objectives. This sound approach includes strengths, and few relatively minor weaknesses, which collectively can be expected to result in good performance. The proposal provides solutions which are considered feasible and practical. These solutions are further considered to be clear and precise, supported, and demonstrate an understanding of the requirements.

ACCEPTABLE: The proposal demonstrates a sound approach which is capable of meeting all requirements and objectives. The approach includes both strengths and weaknesses, where the strengths are not outweighed by the weaknesses. Collectively, the strengths and weaknesses are likely to result in acceptable performance. The proposal solutions are generally feasible and practical. These solutions are further considered to be somewhat clear and precise, partially supported, and demonstrate a general understanding of the requirements.

MARGINAL: The proposal demonstrates an approach which may not be capable of meeting all requirements and objectives. The approach has weaknesses of substance and strengths, which if they exist, are outweighed by the weaknesses. Collectively, the strengths and weaknesses are not likely to result in acceptable performance. The proposal contains solutions which may not be feasible and practical. These solutions are further considered to lack clarity and precision, are generally unsupported, and do not demonstrate a complete understanding of the requirements.

UNACCEPTABLE: The proposal demonstrates an approach which, based on a very high risk, will very likely not be capable of meeting all requirements and objectives. This approach has numerous weaknesses and strengths which, if they exist, are far outweighed by weaknesses. Collectively, the strengths and weaknesses will not result in acceptable performance. The proposal contains solutions which are not feasible and practical. The solutions are further considered to lack any clarity and precision, are unsupported, and do not demonstrate an understanding of the requirement.

4.3 Performance Risk Rating Definitions. Factor 2 will be evaluated using the following Performance Risk Levels:

VERY LOW – Essentially no doubt exists that the Offeror will successfully perform the required effort based on their past performance

LOW - Little doubt exists that the Offeror will successfully perform the required effort based on their performance record.

MODERATE - Some doubt exists that the Offeror will successfully perform the required effort based on their performance record.

HIGH - Significant doubt exists that the Offeror will successfully perform the required effort based on their performance record.

NEUTRAL – When an offeror is without a record of relevant past performance or for whom information on past performance is not available.

5. SUBMISSION REQUIREMENTS

For purposes of this RFP, an “Offeror” may include a group of two or more entities that have formed a “contractor team arrangement,” as that term is defined in the Federal Acquisition Regulation, Section 9.601. In the case of entities that have formed a contractor team arrangement, the experience and performance history of any member of the team, whether or not gained while working with the other member(s) of the currently-proposed contractor team arrangement, will be considered as a part of the evaluation of the Offeror’s proposal. In the case of contractor team arrangements involving a prime contractor and subcontractor(s), where the prime contractor submits the proposal in response to this RFP, the prime contractor must have completed at least 50% of the total number of projects submitted for Factor 1 for consideration in response to the past performance requirements of this RFP. An Offeror that relies upon the performance history of a member or members of a proposed contractor team arrangement will be expected to maintain that arrangement during performance of any contract awarded to that Offeror under this RFP. As a part of their proposal, the Offeror must provide a contractor team agreement signed by all parties, identifying the legal name(s) of all entities and describing the nature of each entity’s relationship (teaming/partnering, joint venture, mentor/protégé, etc.) and their role on this project. This documentation shall be provided in Binder 1 of the Offeror's proposal.

5.1 FACTOR 1: EXPERIENCE WITH TASK ORDER CONSTRUCTION CONTRACTS: The offeror shall provide information that demonstrates the offeror’s experience with task order construction contracts. This should include both design-build and design-bid-build experiences. The offeror should provide information on a minimum of three and a maximum of five task order construction contracts that have had a performance period within the past five years from the date of the original issuance of this solicitation. At least three of the submitted projects must document the prime contractor’s experience. The remaining projects may come from other members of the contractor team arrangement, as defined above.

Information shall include: the contract number, the contracting agency, contact information for each contract, overall capacity of the contract. Additionally, for each contract provide a matrix that includes: all task orders issued, the description of all projects, dollar value of the initial task order, dollar value of completed task order, period of performance of each task order (or date) and actual period of performance completion (or date). Offerors may use the form entitled “CONTRACTOR PROJECTS” (Attachment A) if desired. This format is highly encouraged.

Similar contracts may include those that include task orders issued for construction projects in a variety of sizes, a variety of construction disciplines, varying degrees of technical complexity and both design-build type task orders as well as design-build task orders. The Offeror may submit other types of projects, but must explain the relevancy of those projects to the project that is being solicited in this RFP.

Project should demonstrate a variety of construction types and methods to assist in evaluating the offeror’s ability and approach to perform work, as described in the Statement of Work, including:

• Security systems

5.2 FACTOR 2: PAST PERFORMANCE WITH TASK ORDER CONSTRUCTION CONTRACS: The offeror shall provide information that demonstrates the offeror’s past performance with task order construction contracts listed above. This should include both design-build and design-bid-build experiences.

If a formal evaluation is unavailable, the Offeror shall obtain the information using the “PAST PERFORMANCE QUESTIONNAIRE” (Attachment B) or similar form that provides the same information. Formal performance evaluations are those that are similar to the Department of Defense Performance Evaluation (Construction) Form DD2626. The Offeror may provide an explanation if the performance evaluation rating is less than satisfactory.

Where applicable, the Offeror must explain facts related to any partial or completely terminated project and disclose any projects with an assessment of liquidated damages for the failure to meet the contractually required completion date.

The Government will also analyze past performance by reviewing the Construction Contractor Appraisal Support System (CCASS) and/or the Architect-Engineer Contractor Appraisal Support System (ACASS). The Offeror shall submit all customer completed questionnaires and performance evaluations with its proposal. The Offeror may provide information regarding any awards received for work done on any of the projects described. In the case of an Offeror without a record of relevant past performance, or for whom information on past performance is not available, the Offeror will be rated neutral.

5.3 FACTOR 3: WORK PLAN: To facilitate evaluation, the offeror should organize the submitted material sequentially under tabs. Submit this information in the form of narratives and an organization chart.

5.3.1 Contract Team Organization: Describe in narrative form, how the contract team shall be structured. Describe the principle firms involved and their responsibilities. Identify the team members.

6. EVALUATION CRITERIA

6.1 FACTOR 1: EXPERIENCE IN TASK ORDER CONSTRUCTION CONTRACTS: Offerors must demonstrate sufficient experience in task order construction contracts as stated in paragraph 5.1. The Offeror will be rated on an adjectival basis. To achieve an “acceptable” the offer must submit information listed in paragraph

5.1 that demonstrates that the offeror is capable of meeting all requirements and objectives.

Extra consideration may be given for the following:

a. Experience with multiple task order type construction contracts in a concurrent period

b. High dollar and multiple task orders issued concurrently

c. Task order construction contracts with the Federal Government and/or the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers.

6.2 FACTOR 2: PAST PERFORMANCE IN TASK ORDER CONSTRUCTION CONTRACTS: Past performance will be rated in terms of how likely there is a performance risk to the Government; that is, low performance ratings will be taken as indicators of a high risk that the Offeror will successfully perform the work.

The more relevant a proposed project is the more weight it will be given. If an Offeror has no record of relevant past performance, or if information on the Offeror’s past performance is not available, the Offeror must state that fact. That Offeror will be rated as neutral.

6.3 FACTOR 3: WORK PLAN: The Offeror will be rated on an adjectival basis. To achieve an “acceptable” the offeror will submit the information listed in paragraph 5.3. that demonstrates a sound approach capable of meeting all requirements and objectives.

6.4 FACTOR 4: PRICE:

Price Analysis: The process of examining and evaluating an offeror’s proposed price to determine if it is fair and reasonable without evaluating its separate cost elements and proposed profit/fee will be conducted in accordance with FAR Part 15. Price analysis may involve comparison with other prices; e.g., comparing an offeror’s proposed price with the proposed prices of competing offerors or with previously proposed prices for the same or similar items.

The Government intends to utilize the following process to evaluate the price coefficients. The Government will take the offerors schedule of coefficients from Chart A and multiple them by the percentage estimated in Chart B.

These numbers will then be added together for one overall coefficient that makes up a weighted average of all eight coefficients. This weighted average will be used as a basis of analysis in performing price analysis. If awarded this contract, the proposed coefficients in Chart A will be the contractual coefficients and not the weighted average.

Coefficients will also be analyzed for reasonableness to include offering balanced coefficients.

The following is an example of the analysis to reach the weighted average coefficient. Note: These coefficients are for demonstration only and are not an indication of the Government Estimate or existing rates on current contracts.

The PEB will perform a price analysis to develop a report that summarizes and compares the offerors proposed price information to the independent government estimate. The report will be briefed to the SSEB.

7. EVALUATION PROCEDURE

7.1 The Source Selection Evaluation Board (SSEB) will conduct a review of the Evaluation Board evaluations of proposals against the solicitation requirements and the approved evaluation criteria to ensure an equitable, impartial, and comprehensive evaluation against the solicitation requirements. The fundamental responsibility of the SSEB is to provide the Source Selection Authority with information to make an informed and reasoned selection. The SSEB will therefore prepare a summary report containing adjectival assessments for each factor and their supporting rationale; brief the SSA; and prepare any necessary items for discussion.

7.2 Ratings on individual factors, to include all supporting documentation, will be provided to the Source Selection Authority. The Source Selection Authority, independently exercising prudent business judgment and determine the offeror that proposed the best offer to the Government.

7.3 Discussions: Offerors are advised that it is the intent of the Government to make an award without discussions.

However, the Government reserves the right to hold discussions if it determines that discussions are necessary.

Therefore, proposals should be submitted on the most favorable terms that the Offeror can submit to the Government.

7.4 Exceptions to the contractual terms and conditions of the solicitation (e.g., standard terms and conditions) may result in a determination to reject a proposal.

7.5 The Government reserves the right to reject any or all proposals at any time prior to award.

7.6 The Government reserves the right to accept other than the lowest priced offer.

7.7 Failure to submit all the data in the format indicated in this section may be cause for determining a proposal incomplete and, therefore, not considered for evaluation, and for subsequent award.

8. BASIS OF AWARD

When combined all non-price factors are significantly more important than price. Of the non-price factors the following factors are in descending order of importance: Factor 1, Factor 2, Factor 3.

Trade-off Analysis: After all of the evaluations have been completed, the SSA will consider all factors to determine which Offeror submitted the proposal that represents the “best value” to the Government for this project.

Such information may include--
