EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

1. Objective. The purpose of this acquisition is to support the Defense Health Agency (DHA) by awarding an indefinite-delivery, indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) single award task order contract (SATOC) that provides total turn-key project support for Initial Outfitting and Transition Facilities Support Services to support the replacement facility for the William Beaumont Army Medical Center (WBAMC), Ft Bliss, TX. The scope includes knowledge-based project support for planning, outfitting, and transitioning the staff and patients associated with the new hospital/healthcare facility currently under construction at Ft Bliss, TX. The scope of this services acquisition includes Military Health System compatible services of the following types: 1) comprehensive project management services; 2) comprehensive interior design (CID) services; 3) comprehensive equipment planning services; 4) equipment purchasing services; 5) transition planning and relocation services; 6) warehousing management services;

7) installation, testing, and training services; 8) final turnover, close-out, and post-occupancy evaluation services.

The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code for these services is 541614, Process, Physical Distribution, and Logistics Consulting Services.

2. Contract Type. A SATOC will be awarded for a performance-based indefinite-delivery contact (IDC). Under this contract, task orders will be awarded for services and equipment on a FFP basis. This is an unrestricted (full and open) solicitation under FAR Parts 12 and 15.

This contract will potentially have an ordering period of three years and six months; a one-year base period, two one-year option periods, and a six month extension in accordane with FAR Clause 52.217-8. There is no guarantee that the options will be exercised on the awarded contract.

4. Contract Ordering. Task orders will be awarded against the base SATOC. The only authorized ordering office is the U.S. Army Engineering and Support Center, Huntsville, Alabama. The Government intends to award task order 0001 under CLIN 0001 as a seed task order for all services (which includes all labor, markup, indirect costs, or other fees associated with the purchase of equipment). Task orders 0002 and following will be awarded under CLIN 0002 and will be negotiated as required and will include only the direct cost of the actual equipment being purchased.

8. Contracting Officers. Only a warranted contracting officer of the U.S. Army Engineering and Support Center (either a procuring contracting officer (PCO), or an administrative contracting officer (ACO)), acting within their delegated limits, has the authority to issue modifications or otherwise change the terms and conditions of this contract. If an individual other than the contracting officer attempts to make changes to the terms and conditions of this contract you shall not proceed with the change and shall immediately notify the contracting officer.

FACTOR II: PAST PERFORMANCE

Tab A – Project Summaries

The offerors shall demonstrate recent project experience that is somewhat relevant or better as compared to the PWS and shall provide a project narrative and reference for each project identified. Offerors shall provide project summary information using the past performance form (solicitation attachment 7) to address each of the bullets below.

• Project Title & Location

• Project Start & End Dates

• Contract Value/Actual Awarded Amount

• Description of current project status (indicate % complete)

• Prime Contractor Performing Work

• Subcontractor(s) Performing Work (Indicate Role)

• Project Scope, Including Explanation of IO&T Relevant Tasks and Size of Facility

• Description of work completed by offeror and percentage of overall project scope

• Customer POC’s Name, Employer, Phone, E-mail (verified by offeror). Points of contact must be knowledgeable of past performance from a contractual, managerial, and technical perspective.

• Explanation of Significant Problems Encountered/Corrective Actions Taken. If the offeror encountered no significant problems on the project, the offeror should include a statement to this effect in the proposal.

• Performance recognition documents received within the last five years on relevant projects, such as awards, award fee determinations, customer letters of commendation, and any other forms of performance recognition.

Offerors shall demonstrate past performance on Government or private projects that involved some or all of the scope and magnitude of effort and complexities for new healthcare facilities, dental facilities, and medical research laboratory construction and renovation projects this solicitation requires. If the offeror is a joint venture, provide information demonstrating the past performance of each proposed entity as is relevant to their proposed role on this contract. Projects submitted for past performance consideration shall be either currently underway (minimum 75% complete as billed or accomplished) or completed no longer than five years preceding the closing date of this solicitation. An offeror may properly consider the experience or past performance of an offeror's affiliated companies where the firm's proposal demonstrates that the resources of the affiliated company will affect the performance of the offeror. The relevant consideration is whether the resources of an affiliated company-its workforce, management, facilities or other resources-will be provided or relied upon for contract performance, such that the parent or affiliate will have meaningful involvement in contract performance. The proposed prime contractor shall submit no more than five projects, and no more than one project may be submitted per each key subcontractors, for a total not to exceed seven projects. Note: For the purposes of this evaluation an indefinite-delivery vehicle contract by itself is not a project. A “project” is a discrete effort, such as a task order, or a combination of contracts or task orders that, when combined, are for one overall project. Projects beyond the allowable limit for the prime and key subcontractors will not be evaluated.

Tab B – Past Performance Questionnaires

The Past Performance Questionnaire (PPQ) included in the solicitation (solicitation attachment 2) 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 II, Tab A, Project Summaries. PPQs shall only be submitted for the projects identified in Factor II, Tab A, Project Summaries. 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 (solicitation 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 Government’s points of contact, john.c.kirkwood@usace.army.mil and christi.edwards@usace.army.mil 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.

In addition to the above, 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), including Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS), 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), and any other known sources not provided by the offeror.

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.

FACTOR III: SMALL BUSINESS PARTICIPATION

Tab A – Small Business Participation Plan

All offerors (both large and small businesses) are required to submit a Small Business Participation Plan (solicitation attachment 3). This is separate from the “Small Business Subcontracting Plan,” which is only a requirement for large business contractors. Offerors shall propose anticipated Small Business Participation. Offerors shall provide a statement describing extent to which applicable goals were met for the contracts that were previously identified under Factor II that required submission of a Small Business Participation Plan and/or Subcontracting Plan. Copies of eSRS reports may be submitted to validate past performance and will not count against page limitation. Explanation of efforts where goals were not met may also be provided.

Tab B – Small Business Subcontracting Plan (Large Businesses Only)

Separate from the Small Business Participation Plan, a large business offeror must also submit a subcontracting plan. At the time of award, the Subcontracting Plan will be evaluated for meeting the requirements of FAR 52.219-9 and DFARS 252.219-7003 (or DFARS 252.219-7004 if the offeror has a comprehensive subcontracting plan). Large businesses must submit acceptable subcontracting plans to be eligible for award. Subcontracting Plans shall reflect and be consistent (in terms of dollar value) with the commitments offered in the Small Business Participation Plan. Tab B is not part of the evaluation factors and will not be comparatively rated during source selection. TAB B is part of the responsibility process and the Government will assess the adequacy of the plan only in relation to the apparent successful offeror.

FACTOR IV: PRICE

Tabs A and B are not part of the source selection process. Rather, in accordance with FAR 9.104-1, the contracting officer shall use this information to make a responsibility determination for award to the prospective contractor.

Tab A – Standard Form 1449

Offeror should provide completed Proposal Data Sheet (solicitation attachment 5). Offeror shall provide SF 1449 form duly executed by an official authorized to bind the offer (Blocks 30(a, b, c) and 17a (cage code entered into “code” box).

1) Offeror should provide a complete printout of their FAR and DFARS Representations and Certifications report in SAM.gov.

2) Any and all documentation wherein the offeror (including its parent, predecessors, affiliates or proposed subcontractors) has been negatively referenced in any U.S. Government report, investigation, qui tam action, civil or criminal fraud action, or any other official document evidencing negative performance in U.S. Government contracting during the past three years. Additionally, each offeror will be required to submit complete copies of any self disclosures made pursuant to FAR 52.203-13 or relating to the causes for debarment listed in FAR 9.406-2(b)(1)(vi), as well as all information reported pursuant to, or required to be reported pursuant to FAR 52.209-5; FAR 52.209-7; and FAR 5.209-8. If the offeror has no such information, the offeror shall make a statement to that effect. Offeror shall include a statement affirming the completeness of documentation. Offeror may submit comments responsive to any of the disclosed information concurrently with this proposal. Offeror will not be permitted to submit subsequent comments, except for compelling reasons (e.g., conclusion of a reported matter with exoneration).

3) Bankruptcy/Adverse Information - Offeror shall include a statement in their proposal in Factor IV as part of their responsibility information as to whether the offeror is in Bankruptcy proceedings or not, or is about to undergo bankruptcy proceedings. Offeror shall disclose any other information which could reasonably call into question the responsibility of the offeror to perform this contract. If no such information exists, the offeror shall make a statement to this effect.

In addition to other proposal information, the contracting officer shall use this information in making a responsibility determination for award to the successful offeror, in accordance with FAR Part 9. Failure to comply with the foregoing requirements may eliminate the proposal from further consideration.

Tab C - Pricing

Offeror shall submit the Price Proposal Spreadsheet (solicitation attachment 6) containing worksheet tabs for the pricing summary and worksheets A, B, and C. Offerors should not fill in pricing in the CLIN section of the SF 1449; this section is for ordering purposes only. Worksheets shall be provided electronically in both PDF and MS-Excel format. The rates proposed in the these worksheets will be incorporated into any resulting contract as binding cost elements on the prime and any subcontractors and will become the maximum allowable rates for task orders or modifications during the ordering period of any contract awarded as a result of this solicitation. The rates may be negotiated downward, but may not exceed the maximum rates included in the base indefinite delivery contract award.

Price Worksheet Tab A – Task Order Price. The proposed price shall be submitted on the Task Order Price Proposal form provided (solicitation attachment 6). Each services type identified must be separately priced. A lump sum price for task order 0001 without breakdowns will be considered a deficiency in the proposal. The equipment budget for CLIN 0002 under task orders 0002 and following is stated as the remaining contract capacity after subtracting the price of the service awarded on task order 0001. The offeror’s equipment price associated with task orders 0002 and following is evaluated under price worksheet tab C. The only price being evaluated as part of task order 0001 is the offeror’s proposed price for services which includes all labor, markup, indirect costs, or other fees associated with the purchase of equipment.

Price Worksheet Tab B – Contract Labor Rates. The offeror shall provide the maximum allowable binding labor rates established for the contract and are applicable to all task orders/modifications issued within the applicable performance period. The labor rates are presented for each ordering period as fully burdened rate, excluding profit. The offeror must propose only one labor rate for each labor category. Offerors may use a prime, subcontractor, or team member labor rate for a given labor category in the table; however, that rate will be the binding labor rate for that labor category. The contractor will use these rates to build-up the firm-fixed-price proposed on task order 0001. Offerors are to propose a labor rate using the personnel qualification descriptions provided in the PWS.

Price Worksheet Tab C – Equipment Quotes. The offeror shall provide a price for each of the 21 identified pieces of required equipment.
