• For proposal purposes only, the Offeror should use an arbitrary Notice to Proceed (NTP) date of August 5, 2009. The schedule should be prepared in the form of major milestones and days to completion including design and design reviews. Milestones should include (by generator where applicable) winding design completion, prototype bar accelerated life testing, winding delivery complete, winding installation complete, unit reassembly complete, on-site testing complete, and unit commissioning complete. The proposed project schedule should clearly indicate the total number of calendar days from the fictitious Notice to Proceed date. The maximum allowable schedule should not exceed the stated durations/time periods specified in the Contract Clause, FAR 52.211-10, Commencement, Prosecution, and Completion of Work.

• The Offeror should provide supporting documentation to substantiate the project schedule (e.g.

similar previous work accomplished in a similar time frame). The Offeror’s manufacturing and testing facilities will be considered in determining whether the Offeror is qualified to perform the work. The Offeror should declare and demonstrate that they have the necessary capital and own, or are able to procure the necessary facility space to commence the work according to project schedule and have the capability to perform multiple, simultaneous rewind/restack projects.

(1) Responses should consist of schedules; charts, tables, lists and/or narrative format discussing each objective above and consist of no more than 400 words each. Font type and size is described in Section 00100.

C.2 Evaluation Plan for: FACTOR II: CURRENT AND PAST PERFORMANCE

The goal of this factor is to evaluate the Offeror's likelihood to perform the solicitation requirements as indicated by the Offeror's record of relevant current and past performance, including participation by small business concerns.

Relevant, current and past performance is defined as on-going or past performance as documented in Table 2.a of this section, and of a similar type, size and complexity to that required in this solicitation.

Technical Evaluation Approach: The evaluation team will assign an overall rating for Factor II for each Offeror.

• The Government will conduct a performance assessment based on the relevancy of the Offeror's current and past performance, as well as that of its major subcontractors, as it relates to the probability of successful accomplishment of the required effort. These efforts include all aspects of schedule, performance and customer support, including the Offeror’s submitted subcontracting plan for this project and the Offeror’s record of: 1) Conforming to specifications and standards of good workmanship; 2) Maintaining program execution within cost; 3) Adherence to contract schedules, including the administrative aspects of performance; 4) Ability to resolve technical and manufacturing problems quickly and effectively; 5) Businesslike concern for the interest of its customers; 6) Establishing and maintaining adequate management of subcontractors; and 7) Compliance with subcontracting plans submitted on previous projects.

• Offerors are cautioned that in conducting the performance risk assessment, the Government may use data provided in the Offeror's proposal and data obtained from other sources. Since the Government may not necessarily interview all of the sources provided by the Offerors, it is incumbent upon the Offerors to explain the relevance of the data provided. Offerors are reminded that while the Government may elect to consider data obtained from other sources, the burden of proving low performance risk rests with the Offerors. The Government will base its evaluation of the elements on information received from Offerors, Offeror's former customers, business associates, Federal, State, and local government agencies, and electronic databases (e.g., U.S. Army Corps of Engineers' Construction Contract Administration Support System

(CCASS).

• The subcontracting plan will be rated on a pass/fail basis. Small business concerns are not required to submit a subcontracting plan. If a small business submits an offer, the offer will automatically be rated “pass” for the subcontracting plan.

(1) Record all references and projects that have been listed in other Section 00100 Tables and sent a Customer Satisfaction Survey.

(2) This table will be a source of information to contact the references and request evaluations of the Offeror for the projects listed.

(3) Individuals may be listed more than once if they have specific experience with more than one project. The evaluations they provide will be specific to the project listed.

C.3 Evaluation Plan for: FACTOR III: OVERALL PROPOSAL RISK

The goal of this factor is to assess the risk of the Offeror’s overall approach based on an evaluation of the entire proposal. A risk evaluation will be made on the total proposal to assess the Offeror’s likelihood of success in performing the solicitation requirements considering the evaluation of the factors and sub-factors. Offerors that provide proposals where, overall, the approaches are clearly feasible and practical and the risk of unsuccessful performance is diminished will be evaluated more favorably.

C.4 Evaluation Plan for: FACTOR IV – Price

The goal of this factor is to evaluate offers for award purposes by adding the total price for all options to the total price for the basic requirement. Evaluation of options will not obligate the Government to exercise the option(s).

The Government will evaluate offers for award purposes by evaluating the prices proposed in the Bid Schedule.

The Offeror must provide a price proposal by completing the Bid Schedule as instructed in Section 00100.

D. PROPOSAL SUBMISSION

Any costs related to proposal preparation will not be reimbursed by the Government.

D.1 Format:

Submit proposals in heavy-duty, 3-ring binders with a “D” ring or locking closures.

Each volume and all copies must include the Offeror’s name and address, volume/tab number and title of the volume clearly identified on the front cover of the binder. Price proposals will be submitted in a sealed envelope.

Each volume of the proposal is expected to include a table of contents and a summary section that contains a brief abstract of the volume with the information confined to the appropriate volume.

If the materials do not fit within a single volume, they should be separated in additional binders, but all binders must be clearly identified.

Separate the information by using Tabs within the volumes. Label the tabs to identify the factor and sub-factor intended for evaluation.

Pages containing text are expected to be 8 ½ x 11 inches with at least one-inch margins at the top, bottom, and both sides. Larger format drawings or tables may be added by folding them to fit within the binder. Paragraphs should be separated by at least one blank line. A standard 12-point font in either Arial or Times New Roman fonts are required. Tables and illustrations may use a reduced font size not less than 8-point and the layout may be landscape.

D.2 Content Requirements:

In order to reduce proposal size, the Offeror must confine the proposal to relevant information and documentation sufficient to provide an adequate basis for evaluation. Offerors are responsible for including sufficient details, in a concise manner, to permit a complete and accurate evaluation of the proposal.

The evaluation board for the Government is instructed to evaluate the technical proposals on the basis of the information provided. Extraneous information provided in the proposals will not be considered in the evaluations;

therefore the Offeror should only provide information that satisfies the solicitation requirements.

DO NOT cross reference information between factors or sub-factors. It is acceptable to repeat data, project information or experience in more than one technical area as long as it satisfies the requirements of that factor or sub-factor.

Proprietary information must be clearly marked.

D.3 Proposal Organization:

VOLUME I – TECHNICAL FACTORS

Experience, to be considered relevant, must have been accomplished as described in Section 00100. Do not include any price information with the technical proposals.

FACTOR I: TECHNICAL CAPABILITY

This part of the proposal will be used to evaluate the Offeror’s technical capabilities and shall be structured as outlined below:

Tab 1a: Stator Winding Details Tab 1b: Design Experience Tab 1c: Installation Details Tab 1d: Management Approach Tab 1e: Design/Manufacture/Delivery/Installation Schedule

The Offeror should provide the information requested in Section 00100.

VOLUME II

FACTOR II: CURRENT AND PAST PERFORMANCE

This volume of the Proposal will be used to evaluate the Offeror’s relevant current and past performance. The Government intends to use data provided by listed references or referrals and other data sources to evaluate the Offeror’s current and past performance.

The Offeror should provide references as described in Section 00100 and provide a completed Table 2.a, found in this section, with the proposal. In addition, the Offeror should also email to the Contracting Specialist (see contact information below) the same information as provided in Table 2.a which represents all of the references or customers who were asked to complete the questionnaire. The list will also be used to verify and validate the responder’s information.

The Offeror must solicit past performance information from each reference or customer as listed in Table 2.a and request completion and submission of the “Evaluation of Contractor/Vendor Performance” questionnaire available at:

http://www.surveymonkey.com/s.aspx?sm=LIx7P3OamN_2fG7XsMtYj9QQ_3d_3d

If a reference or customer is unable to access the questionnaire online, they should be provided a hard copy of the survey to complete. The survey questions, order of the questions and layout of the survey must be verbatim to the survey provided or it will not be considered. The customer or reference should complete the questionnaire and mail in a sealed envelope to the Walla Walla District addressed to:
