General: This Request for Proposal (RFP) seeks proposals from Offerors interested in being selected for the design and construction of the DLA HQ Elevator Modernization. This is Phase I of a two-phase FP. This RFP is requesting submission of proposal under Phase I submission criteria ONLY. After evaluating Phase I proposals, the Contracting Officer will select the most highly qualified Offerors and request that only those Offerors submit proposal for Phase II. The maximum number of Offerors will be selected to submit Phase II proposal shall not exceed five (5). Offerors shall not submit any proposals under Phase II submission criteria at this time. Phase II of the solicitation will be issued in an amendment directly to those Offerors selected for Phase II. Submitting any information under Phase II criteria may lead to disqualification of your proposal. This is an unrestricted competitive RFP. Offerors responding to this RFP are required to submit their proposals in accordance wit the instruction contained in this Section 00 21 16. A contract will be awarded to the Offeror whose proposal represents the “Best Value” to the Government. The best value determination will be based on a comparative assessment of proposals against all source selection criteria in the solicitation.

FACTOR 1 – PAST PERFORMANCE: The submitted material MUST be organized sequentially under tabs for each numbered section to facilitate evaluation. All narratives must contain sufficient detail to demonstrate technical capability.

An Offeror that relies upon the experience and performance history of a member, members or affiliates of a proposed contractor team arrangement, as indicated above, must provide a teaming agreement or commitment (in the case of any affiliates) signed by all parties.

The Offeror shall provide a teaming agreement with their proposed Designer.

1.1 EXPERIENCE IN RELEVANT PROJECTS: The Offeror shall submit information on at least two (2) but no more than four (4) Design-Build (DB) and/or Design-Bid-Build (DBB) projects demonstrating the Offeror’s recent and relevant experience. If the Offeror’s submission exceeds the maximum project limitation of four

(4) completed projects, the first four (4) projects submitted will be evaluated only, while the remaining additional project(s) will not be evaluated. These projects must be of relevant scope and complexity and demonstrate a minimum completion value of $11,000,000 considering adjustment for escalation from project completion to 2022 (all escalation values are to be labeled as escalated and the Offeror must explain in detail their escalation rationale, which must include any formulas, calculations, assumptions, etc.) and address the discussions requested on Attachment A while meeting the teaming agreement requirements in section above. Completed projects must have a completion date no earlier than six (6) years preceding the original date of issuance of this solicitation. Projects that have a Beneficial Occupancy Date (BOD) within the same date range will also be considered. The Beneficial Occupancy Date (BOD) is the point at which the customer determines the facility or area can be occupied from both a regulatory and work function standpoint.

Note: In reference to Task Order Construction Contracts (TOCCs)/Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (ID/IQ) contracts, these base contracts will not be accepted as a project submission; however, individual task orders/delivery orders on TOCCs and/or ID/IQ contracts can be submitted under Factor 1. Each task/delivery order submitted must individually meet the requirements of the factor. Submissions of multiple task/delivery orders as a project will not be accepted or evaluated.

At least one (1) project must be a Design-Build (DB) project from the Offeror. At least one (1) project must demonstrate Design-Build (DB) experience from the proposed Designer. For projects demonstrating past experience from the designer, one hundred percent (100%) of the design and at least seventy five percent (75%) of the construction of each project must be completed by the original date of issuance of this solicitation.

For projects demonstrating past experience for the construction contractor, one hundred percent (100%) of the construction must be complete.

In order for a project to be considered relevant, the project must include the following:

Experience installing/designing/ modernizing/commissioning various types of elevators to include freight traction and/or passenger elevators.

Experience hydraulic elevators with a minimum capacity of 3,500 lbs

In addition, if the project includes the following elements, discussion/documentation of additional elements may be considered more highly:

Experience working concurrently in multiple buildings on the same work site/installation.

Experience working in an occupied facility. Must include discussion of how the work was phased/coordinated to accommodate access to facility occupants.

Each element must have a description of how the project meets the element (e.g. concrete paving – For this project, 500 LF of concrete sidewalks were installed, 300 LF of curbs were removed and re-installed, etc.)

*Lists, charts/matrices, and bullets will not be accepted when identifying relevant elements.

It is the responsibility of the Offeror to identify, detail and demonstrate the relevancy of the submitted projects to the solicitation criteria elements. The evaluation committee WILL NOT make assumptions.

The information that is required to be supplied is identified on the form provided entitled “EXPERIENCE IN RELEVANT PROJECTS” (Attachment A). Offerors are not required to use the form itself as part of their proposal, but the information requested on the form must be in the Offeror’s proposal and should be in the same format as the form. Offerors may expand the form as necessary to accommodate the required project information.

The only submissions under the tab for this section are to be the completed “Attachment A” forms or similar format as indicated above. Only the information provided in either of these formats will be considered. Company summaries/introductions, project summary charts/matrixes, etc. will not be accepted or evaluated.

1.2 PAST PERFORMANCE QUESTIONNAIRES EXPERIENCE IN RELEVANT PROJECTS:

For each of the projects submitted, provide a copy of the Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS) report, or USACE Past Performance Questionnaire (PPQ-0) (Attachment B) from a representative of the owner. The Offeror must request that their client complete the USACE Past Performance Questionnaire for Relevant Experience (Form PPQ-0) and submit the questionnaire as part of the Offeror’s technical proposal. The Offeror may provide an explanation if the performance evaluation rating is less than satisfactory. Offerors are encouraged to follow-up with clients/references to ensure timely submittal of questionnaires.

If the Offeror is unable to obtain a completed PPQ from a client for a project(s) before the proposal closing date, the Offeror must complete and submit with the proposal the first page of the PPQ (Attachment B) for projects submitted under the tab for EXPERIENCE IN RELEVANT PROJECTS, which will provide contract and client information for the respective project(s). Ensure correct phone numbers and email addresses are provided for the owner point of contact.

Previously completed PPQ-0s may be submitted provided that the documents do not reference any other solicitations.

Submitted PPQ-0s must only reference this solicitation. Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS) ratings will take precedence over PPQs.

Past Performance information may be obtained from other sources available to the Government, to include, but not limited to, Past Performance Information Retrieval System (PPIRS), Federal Awardee Performance and Integrity Information System (FAPIIS), Contractor Assessment Reporting System (CPARS) or other databases using all CAGE/DUNS number of team members (partnership, joint venture, teaming arrangement, or parent company/subsidiary/affiliate) identified in the Offeror’s proposal; interviews with Program Managers, Contracting Officers, and Fee Determining Officials; and the Defense Contract Management Agency The information obtained from these sources will be evaluated supplementary to the past performance questionnaires. In reference to the contracts pulled from these sources, the relevancy of the projects, completion dates, ratings and comments in the individual categories and overall ratings will be considered in making the overall confidence assessment. 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.

d. The past performance factor considers each offeror’s demonstrated recent and relevant record of performance in supplying products and services that meet the contract requirements. There are three aspects to the past performance evaluation: recency, relevancy, and quality.

(i) RECENCY: The first aspect is to evaluate the recency of the offeror’s past performance.

Recency is generally expressed as a time period during which past performance references are considered relevant and is critical to establishing the relevancy of past performance information.

(ii) RELEVANCY: The second aspect is to determine how relevant a recent effort accomplished by the offeror is to the effort to be acquired through the source selection.

Relevancy is not separately rated; however, the following criteria (see Table 2) will be used to establish what is relevant which shall include similarity of service/support, complexity, dollar value, contract type, and degree of subcontract/teaming.

Table 2 - Past Performance Relevancy Ratings Rating Definition

Very Relevant Present/past performance effort involved essentially the same scope and magnitude of effort and complexities this solicitation requires.
