SUMMARY OF CHANGES

SECTION L - INSTRUCTIONS, CONDITIONS AND NOTICES TO BIDDERS

The following have been modified:

INSTRUCTIONS TO OFFERORS

INSTRUCTIONS

L.1 COPIES OF SOLICITATION DOCUMENTS AND AMENDMENTS

Copies of this solicitation are available by INTERNET ACCESS ONLY. The Government will post all solicitation documents on the betaSAM.GOV website (replaces FedBizOpps) at https://beta.sam.gov/search?index=opp. The Government will post all amendments on betaSAM.GOV. The Offeror is responsible for checking the website for amendments or additional information. The Offeror shall submit in its proposal all requested information specified in the Request for Proposal (RFP) solicitation.

L.2 GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS

L.2.1 The Government will conduct full and open competition with small business reserves after exclusion of sources in this solicitation to foster an adequate number of viable Contractors to reduce any risk to the stability of the administration of the Facilities Reduction Program

(FRP), and to ensure the continuous availability of abatement and demolition services for the

Government in the Northeast region (geographical area for contract performance).

L.2.2 Awards are made to responsible offerors whose proposals conform to the solicitation and are determined the most advantageous to the Government, considering price and other non-price factors. Offerors are cautioned that the Government may not award to the highest technically evaluated or the lowest priced Offeror.

L.2.3 The Government reserves the right to award without discussions. The Government intends to make staggered awards if there are offerors’ proposal that can be awarded without discussions. Later awarded contracts will have an initial period of performance that will be less than full two-year base period in duration and will end on the same date as all others contractor that receive a base IDIQ award. If exercised, option periods will be same for all awardees.

L.2.4 CEHNC anticipates making up to 10 awards in this region. CEHNC anticipates that five will be awarded under the small business reserve. CEHNC reserves the right to award more or less, based on actual qualified responses to the solicitation.

L.2.5 The Government will, subject to FAR 9.604 Contractor Team Arrangements -

Limitations, recognize the integrity and validity of Contractor team arrangements provided the arrangements are identified and company relationships are fully disclosed in an offer. For purposes of exclusion of sources under this solicitation, a company or business entity identified https://beta.sam.gov/search?index=opp in an offer as a potential prime Contractor shall be considered to include the named company or business entity, its parent or subsidiary, or a company or business entity directly related to the company or business entity through common (regardless of the percentage) ownership, control, or management (whether by a parent company or otherwise). Under this solicitation, no company or business entity may be awarded more than one contract as a prime Contractor. In addition, if a contract is awarded to a prime Contractor in which a company or business entity has formed a business arrangement (e.g., partnership, joint venture, LLC) to act as a prime

Contractor, any offeror which includes that company or business entity in a business arrangement to act as a potential prime Contractor, shall be excluded from award of the other one contract under this solicitation. “Offeror” refers to the proposed prime Contractor and its proposed key subcontractors.

L.2.6 Offerors are instructed to follow the instructions provided in this section carefully to assure the Government receives consistent information in a form that will facilitate proposal evaluation. Proposals that take exception to inclusion of specific requirements in the resultant contract shall not be considered.

L.2.7 The Offeror’s proposal must also include all data and information requested in this solicitation and be submitted in accordance with all instructions. The offer shall comply with the requirements stated in the solicitation and applicable attachments. Non-conformance with the instructions provided in the solicitation and this section may result in an unfavorable proposal evaluation or rejection of the proposal. The proposal shall be clear, concise, and shall include sufficient detail for effective evaluation and for substantiating the validity of stated claims.

L.2.8 The proposal should be prepared clearly and concisely to demonstrate that the Offeror has a complete and thorough understanding of the requirements of the PWS. Offerors shall prepare proposals on the presumption the Government has no previous knowledge of the

Offeror’s capabilities. The Government will evaluate proposals solely on the information specifically presented in respective submittals, with the exception of evaluation of Past

Performance. FAR 52.215-1, Instructions to Offerors, outlines the requirements for submission of offers and late proposals. Proposals will not be returned (except for timely withdrawals), but will be retained by the Government for official record purposes. When applicable, the Offeror should cross reference to the solicitation by annotating solicitation reference in parenthesis, (e.g., Sec C, para 4.0).

L.2.9 The offeror’s initial offer should contain the offeror’s best terms from a technical and price standpoint, as the Government intends to make awards without discussions (except clarifications, as described in FAR 15.306(a)). The Government reserves the right to seek information clarifying any element of an offer or other information submitted in Volumes 0-IV prior to awarding without discussions. This request for information serves to clarify certain aspects of proposals (e.g. the relevance of an offeror’s past performance information and adverse past performance information to which the offeror has not previously had an opportunity to respond) or to resolve minor or clerical errors. This exchange shall not be used to cure weaknesses or material omissions of the offer, or materially alter the technical or pricing information in the proposal. Under no circumstances will the offeror revise its offer in response to clarification questions; any such revision will not be considered. If the Government determines that it is necessary to conduct discussions, the Contracting Officer will establish the competitive range. If the Contracting Officer decides that an offeror’s proposal should no longer be included in the competitive range, the proposal will be excluded from consideration for award; and written notice of this decision will be provided to unsuccessful offerors in accordance with FAR 15.503. If it is determined necessary, the Contracting Officer will notify offerors remaining within the competitive range to schedule discussions.

L.2.10 The proposal shall not simply rephrase or restate the Government's requirements, but rather should provide convincing rationale to address how the offeror intends to meet these requirements. Offerors shall assume that the Government has no prior knowledge of their facilities, capabilities, and experience. The Government will base its evaluation on the information presented, plus any additional past performance information obtained by the

Government from other sources.

The PPQ included in the solicitation, see Section J, Attachment 4, is provided for the Offeror to submit to the client for each project (that does not have a CPARS) the Offeror submitted in Volume I. Ensure correct phone numbers and email addresses are provided for the client point of contact. Completed

PPQs should be submitted with your proposal. If the Offeror is unable to obtain a completed

PPQ from a client for a project(s) before the solicitation 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 FY20 FRP NE Region MATOC Inbox, CEHNC-NE-

FRP@usace.army.mil, prior to the solicitation closing date. The solicitation number and

Offeror’s name shall be clearly indicated on the PPQ. 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.

L.6.3.1.2 In addition to submitted CPARS and PPQs, the Government may review any other sources of information for evaluating past performance. Other sources may include, but are not limited to, CPARS (Past Performance Information Retrieval System [PPIRS] merged with

CPARS as of 5 May 2019), using all CAGE/DUNS numbers of team members (partnership, joint venture, teaming arrangement, or parent company/subsidiary/affiliate, key subcontractors) 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 known sources not provided by the Offeror.

ERFs as submitted in Volume I.

L.6.4 VOLUME III, FACTOR 3, SMALL BUSINESS PARTICIPATION

L.6.5 VOLUME IV, FACTOR 4 – PRICE

Offeror shall submit a price proposal for the base period (24 months) and three one-year option periods. Proposal shall include, for the purpose of evaluations, the breakout of the professional labor rates and G&A rate. The rates proposed in the price proposal worksheets will be binding price elements and will become the maximum allowable rates for task orders issued during the ordering period of any contract awarded as a result of this solicitation, unless Davis Bacon Wage

Rates require a higher rate. See Attachment 18 - Estimated Quantities.

Offeror shall submit a proposal narrative describing the basis of estimate (BOE) of proposed pricing presented in Attachment 18. Offeror shall submit Price Volume proposal narratives, including any BOE sheets, in PDF or Excel format. Do not submit BOEs as pictures.

IAW FAR subparts 15.402 and 15.403-1, certified cost or pricing data is not required as the KO has determined adequate competition is expected for this procurement. If after receipt of proposals the KO determines that there is insufficient information available to determine price reasonableness and none of the exceptions at FAR 15.403-1 apply, the offeror may be required to submit cost or pricing data. Information submitted shall be prepared following the instruction in

FAR 15.403-5. Additionally, in the event that adequate competition is not obtained, the KO may incorporate FAR 52.215-20 entitled, “Requirements for Cost or Pricing Data or Information

Other Than Cost or Pricing Data,” into the solicitation and request a Certificate of Current Cost or Pricing Data.

All prices and costs must be in U.S. dollars only, including the amounts for the prime offeror and any potential subcontractors.

There are no page limitations for this volume. Any information included in this volume not directly related to Price will be disregarded. In addition to the information requested below, the

Government reserves the right to request additional or more detailed information to support an evaluation of reasonableness.

L.6.5.2 Volume IV, Tab B, Sample Task Order Attachment B:

In addition to the base/option years’ proposal, Offeror shall also submit a separate price proposal for the sample task order using prices proposed for the base period above. See Attachment 17, Sample Task Order Attachment B.

Price is not an adjectivally rated criterion, but is evaluated for providing the best value to the

Government, IAW FAR Subpart 15.404. In addition, price proposal will be evaluated to determine whether the proposed price reflects a clear understanding of the requirements and is consistent with the methods of performance described in the offeror’s proposal. The

Government may consider offers found unreasonable unacceptable and may reject on that basis.
