(Phase 1 of 2)

1.0 OVERVIEW OF PHASE 1

This is a two-phase competitive solicitation for a firm, fixed-price contract, which will be awarded using the Best Value Trade-Off Process.

Phase 1. The first phase consists of a process known in commercial design-build as the “Request for Qualifications” or the acronym: “RFQ”. This solicitation refers to it as “Phase 1”. In Phase 1 of the 2 Phase design- build selection procedure, interested firms or joint venture entities (referred to as “Offerors”) submit specified performance capability proposals, demonstrating their capability to successfully execute the design-build construction contract 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 three (3) of the highest rated Phase 1 Offerors to compete for the design-build contract in Phase 2.

The Phase 1 proposal must describe the capability of the Offeror to perform the work, describe the Offeror’s understanding of the requirements contained in the Statement of Work and set forth full, accurate, and complete information as required by the RFP. The proposal should be prepared simply and economically and be legible, clear, and coherent.

Phase 2. In Phase 2, the selected Offerors will submit preliminary technical-design proposals, including identification of key subcontractors, the proposed contract duration, a preliminary schedule, plus a price proposal in response to the Phase 2 Request for Proposal. The final evaluation rating used for comparison, selection, and award will reflect both the rating received in Phase 1 and the evaluation rating received in Phase 2.

2.0 GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS

Proposals will be received until the date and time indicated on Standard Form 1442 at the address shown in Section

00 21 16 INSTRUCTIONS TO OFFERORS

The Government intends to evaluate proposals and award a contract without discussions with offerors. Therefore, the offeror’s initial proposal should contain the offeror’s best terms from a price and technical standpoint. The Government reserves the right to conduct discussions if the Contracting Officer later determines them to be necessary to determine the most highly qualified offerors to participate in Phase 2.

Award will be made to the proposal offering the best value to the Government, price and other factors considered.

Offerors will also be evaluated on the extent they follow RFP proposal submission instructions as they pertain to the evaluation factors.

WHAT TO SUBMT: The Phase 1 proposal shall consist of the following:

1. Submit a cover letter containing: Solicitation number; Name, email and phone number(s) of the offeror;

Name, title, email and phone number(s) of the persons authorized to negotiate on the offeror’s behalf with the Government in connection with this RFP; a statement specifying agreement with all terms, conditions and provisions included in the RFP; Acknowledgement of all amendments to the RFP in accordance with the instructions on the Standard Form 30 (amendment form).

2. The completed Section 00 45 00 of the RFP (Representations and Certifications)

3. Letter from Surety stating offeror is capable of providing a Bid Guarantee in Phase 2 as required in FAR 52.228-1.

4. Phase 1 Proposal Submission documents described in the Proposal Submission Instructions detailed below.

In order to effectively and equitably evaluate all proposals, the Contracting Officer must receive information containing sufficient detail to allow review and evaluation by the Government. Proposal clarity, organization, and cross-referencing are mandatory. Failures to submit and organize proposals as requested may adversely affect an Offeror's evaluation. Offerors should provide sufficient detail and clearly define all items required in this section.

The Contracting Officer may remove any Offeror from further consideration during any phase of the procurement if the Offeror fails to meet the submittal requirements of the RFP or to reduce the competitive range for purposes of efficiency pursuant to FAR 15.306(c)(2).

Phase 1 proposal materials shall be submitted in PDF file format using Adobe Acrobat software. Proposals shall be tabbed and labeled in a manner to afford easy identification from a Table of Contents. Each page shall be identified with the appropriate page number centered at the bottom of the page. Sheet size of the proposal contents shall be 8- 1/2 inches x 11 inches where sheets are prepared specifically for this proposal, unless another paper size is specifically authorized elsewhere in this section for a particular submission. Do not use alternative paper sizes (e.g., 11” x 14” or 11” x 17” sheets) unless specifically authorized in this section for a particular submission. Do not use a font size smaller than 10, an unusual font style such as script, or condensed print for any submission. All page margins must be at least 1 inch wide, but may include headers and footers.

Phase 1 proposals shall not exceed 20 single-sided pages for Tabs B and D excluding the cover sheet and Table of Contents.. The page limit does not apply to any documents submitted under Tabs A and C. Factor 2 – Past Performance will not be counted towards this page limitation, nor will the resumes submitted for key personnel. The Government will not evaluate any information beyond the page limitation noted. The Government will not review any information submitted in an appendix or attachment to the proposal. The Offeror shall not submit verbatim sections of this solicitation as part of their proposal. Offers that do not meet these requirements may be subject to rejection.

The technical proposal will be appropriately organized using the tabs specified in the chart below. A cover sheet identifying the Offeror (name, address, point of contact), project description, and solicitation number shall be provided. The second sheet shall be a Table of Contents. Offers that violate these rules unnecessarily delay the evaluation process and may be rejected by the Government after the initial evaluation without receiving any further consideration.

Each Volume of the proposal shall be identified by the Solicitation Number (W912DY21R0037), project title (Building 2324 Renovation, Stuttgart, Germany), name, address, and telephone number of the Offeror, and the following on the volume in bold letters:

5.0 TAB B – FACTOR 1: SPECIALIZED EXPERIENCE

5.1 SUBMISSION REQUIREMENTS

The prime contractor shall demonstrate recent, relevant experience on similar projects, using Construction – Specialized Experience form – (Attachment 2) at the end of the section. Offerors shall demonstrate the experience described in the Technical Element Criteria listed below. Experience with each element shall be demonstrated in at least one of the submitted projects. Offerors may identify state and local government and private contracts that are similar to the Government’s requirements. If the offeror is a joint venture, each firm shall provide information, demonstrating experience relevant to their role on this project. 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) seven (7) years preceding the date of this Solicitation. If any firm has multiple functions or divisions, limit the project examples to those performed by the division or unit submitting the offer or by the team member. If projects were design-build, so identify them. Prime contractor must submit at least two renovation or construction projects executed in a secure facility in accordance with Intelligence Community Directive (ICD) 705, Technical Specifications for Construction and Management of Sensitive Compartmented Information Facilities. These projects must include a combination of architectural, mechanical, electrical, plumbing, and systems furniture replacement, and a value of $2 million or greater. The prime contractor shall submit at least Three (3) projects but no more than Five (5) projects.

The offeror should describe any previous teaming experience between current team members, if not described in the project list. Offeror may describe design-build experience on other type projects. The above information is limited to projects that are well underway or that have been completed and turned over no longer than the past five (5) years preceding the date of this solicitation.

Technical Element Criteria:

a) Element 1: Offeror shall demonstrate experience with design-build construction projects.

b) Element 2: Offeror shall demonstrate experience with design-build construction projects using ICD 705.

c) Element 3: Offeror shall demonstrate experience with Projects Designed for and Constructed on OCONUS Military installations.

d) Element 4: Offeror shall demonstrate experience with Projects with a value of $2 million or greater.

e) Element 5: Offeror shall demonstrate experience managing projects with multiple phases on a secure site.

5.2 EVALUATION CRITERIA:

The relative strengths, weaknesses and deficiencies will be evaluated for Specialized Experience. Based on the evaluation, the Government will assign a combined technical/risk rating for Factor 1 (elements will not be individually weighted or rated) in accordance with the table below. The Government will evaluate the extent of recent, related experience of the prime contractor in construction or design-build construction for this project. The Government will place greater importance on projects performed as a prime contractor than as a subcontractor.

Combined Technical/Risk Ratings

Rating Description

Outstanding Proposal indicates an exceptional approach and understanding of the requirements and contains multiple strengths, and risk of unsuccessful performance is low.

Good Proposal indicates a thorough approach and understanding of the requirements and contains at least one strength, and risk of unsuccessful performance is low to moderate.

Acceptable Proposal meets requirements and indicates an adequate approach and understanding of the requirements and risk of unsuccessful performance is no worse than moderate.

Marginal Proposal has not demonstrated an adequate approach and understanding of the requirements and/or risk of unsuccessful performance is high.

Unacceptable Proposal does not meet requirements of the solicitation, and thus, contains one or more deficiencies. Proposal is un-awardable.

The Offeror must submit the requested information to demonstrate a record of recent, related experience in construction or design-build construction, for the facility types (which may include similar state or local government or private counterparts) included in this contract. Recent experience includes projects well underway (see above criteria) or those completed and turned over within five (5) seven (7) years of the proposal issue date for this RFP for construction or design-build construction experience. Joint Venture partners should each demonstrate experience commensurate with their role on this project.

The Government reserves the right to verify the experience record of cited projects or other recent projects by reviewing the Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS), other DOD or Government appraisal systems or to interview owners or references. The Government may check any or all cited references to verify supplied information.

The Government will consider extent of recent experience, degree of relationship of such experience to this project, demonstrated familiarity with applicable codes and local conditions. Some examples of relevancy to this project may include, but not be limited to:

(1) Number, size, type work, complexity, location

(2) Dates (well under way or completed no more than 7 years preceding date of Solicitation)

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

The Government may consider previous D-B experience, even if the experience is on different type projects than this project. Similarly, the Government may consider previous recent teaming experience among the team members as value added, even if on different type design and/or construction projects than this project. The more relevant the experience, the more credit will be given.

6.0 TAB C – FACTOR 2: PAST PERFORMANCE

6.1 SUBMISSION REQUIREMENTS

For each of the projects submitted under Factor 1, the offeror shall submit copies of Federal/DoD/Navy/Army performance reviews (i.e. Contractor’s copy of CPARS evaluation). For each project under Factor 1 that does not have a CPARS evaluation, offerors shall provide a Past Performance Questionnaire form PPQ-0 (Attachment 3) to a representative of the owner/client that can provide the owner’s opinion of the offeror’s past performance for the project. 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 Factor 1 Project.

There is no page limit for this factor.

Form PPQ-0 shall be utilized and offerors shall submit the PPQ to clients to complete for their proposal submission to the Contracting Office. Questionnaires shall be submitted directly from the client to the Government’s point of contact, Megan Brantley via email Megan.N.Brantley@usace.army.mil prior to proposal closing date. The offeror is responsible for ensuring that the completed questionnaires are submitted by the closing date. Offerors should follow-up with clients/references to ensure timely submittal of questionnaires. If the offeror is unable to ensure a completed PPQ from a client for a project(s) is submitted 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).

The Government may contact and interview the owner’ s representative on the Past Performance questionnaires and reserves the right to interview other individuals acting for the owner’s representative if the owner’s representative is not available.

In addition to the above, the Government may obtained past performance information from any other sources available to the Government, to include, but not limited to, the Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS), Federal Awardee Performance and Integrity Information System (FAPIIS), Electronic Subcontract Reporting System (eSRS), or other databases; interviews with Program Managers, Contracting Officers, and other Government sources.

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

Joint Venture Submission Requirements.

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. 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, not to exceed the maximum of five (5) projects.

The Joint Venture shall also 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.

6.2 EVALUATION CRITERIA:

The Government will perform a performance confidence assessment of the offeror’s probability of successfully meeting the contract requirements, considering the degree of success of the offeror’s recent and relevant experience.

To be recent, projects must be 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. To be relevant, projects must be for similar size, scope and complexity.

The following Relevancy levels and Confidence ratings will be used in the evaluation of the contractor’s past performance. The Relevancy is not a separate proposal rating but is only used in developing overall past performance confidence assessment rating assigned to the Past Performance Factor.

Past Performance Relevancy Levels

Rating Definition

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

Relevant Present/past performance effort involved similar scope and magnitude of effort and complexities this solicitation requires.

Somewhat Relevant

Present/past performance effort involved some of the scope and magnitude of effort and complexities this solicitation requires.

Not Relevant Present/past performance effort involved little or none of the scope and magnitude of effort and complexities this solicitation requires.

Performance Confidence Assessment Ratings

Rating Description

Substantial Confidence

Based on the offeror’s recent/relevant performance record, the Government has a high expectation that the offeror will successfully perform the required effort.

Satisfactory Confidence

Based on the offeror’s recent/relevant performance record, the Government has a reasonable expectation that the offeror will successfully perform the required effort.

Limited Confidence

Based on the offeror’s recent/relevant performance record, the Government has a low expectation that the offeror will successfully perform the required effort.

No Confidence Based on the offeror’s recent/relevant performance record, the Government has no expectation that the offeror will successfully perform the required effort.

Unknown Confidence (Neutral)

No recent/relevant performance record is available or the offeror’s performance record is so sparse that no meaningful confidence assessment rating can be reasonably assigned.

A rating of no less than ‘Satisfactory Confidence’ must be achieved for Past Performance. A ‘Neutral / Unknown Confidence’ rating is also acceptable if no recent, or relevant past performance record is available.
