DISCUSSIONS

1. GENERAL INFORMATION. In accordance with FAR provision 52.215-1, 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 cost or price and technical standpoint. The Government reserves the right to conduct discussions if the Contracting Officer later determines them to be necessary.

The following have been modified:

EVALUATION FACTORS

A. BASIS FOR AWARD

The award will be made based on the best overall (i.e., best value-tradeoff) proposal that is determined to be the most beneficial to the Government, with appropriate consideration given to the four (4) factors: Transformer Design and Manufacturing Experience; Installation Experience; Past Performance; and Price.

Factor 1, Transformer Design and Manufacturing Experience is more important than Factor 2, Installation Experience. Factors 1 and 2 are more important than Factor 3, Past Performance. When combined, the non-price factors (Factors 1 through 3) are significantly more important than Factor 4, Price. As proposals become more equal in their technical (non-price) merit, the evaluated price becomes more important in determining the best value proposal.

B. FACTORS AND SUB-FACTORS TO BE EVALUATED

The following evaluation factors and sub-factors will be used to evaluate each proposal. Award will be made to the offeror whose proposal is most advantageous to the Government based upon an integrated assessment of the evaluation factors and sub-factors described below.

All non-price factors other than Factor 3, Past Performance, shall be rated using the combined technical/risk rating as follows:

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, and/or risk of unsuccessful performance is unacceptable. Proposal is unawardable.

SECTION M - EVALUATION FACTORS FOR AWARD

FACTOR 1 – Transformer Design and Manufacturing Experience

Proposals will be evaluated to determine transformer design and manufacturer experience relevant with the scope and complexity required in the solicitation. Offerors shall provide sufficient information to clearly demonstrate the breadth and depth of the Offeror’s transformer design and manufacturer experience.

Offerors shall clearly identify the transformer manufacturing firm(s) that will be utilized during performance of the contract to design, manufacture and test the transformers. If the prime contractor proposes to self-perform manufacturing of the required transformer, ensure the proposal is clear that the Offeror will be performing this function. If the prime contractor proposes to use a subcontractor for the manufacturing of the required transformer, the offeror must submit a signed Letter of Commitment from the subcontractor with the proposal.

If a subcontractor is proposed, the proposal will be considered more favorable if the proposal contains evidence of the prime and subcontractor working successfully together previously on relevant projects, than an offer with a prime and subcontractor with no prior experience working together on relevant projects.

If a joint venture is proposed, the proposal will be considered more favorable if the proposal contains evidence of the joint venture entity working successfully together previously on relevant projects, than an offer with a joint venture with no prior experience working together on relevant projects.

Offerors must demonstrate transformer manufacturer experience by providing at least one example of each of the elements identified in the fully relevant definition below performed within the past six (6) years.

Fully relevant transformer manufacturing experience is defined as projects including all of the following:

a. Design and Manufacturing. Class I and Class II power transformers, as defined by IEEE standard C57.12.00, with a minimum of 500 kVA rating and larger.

b. Ratings. Transformer ratings (kVA, primary/secondary voltage, Basic Impulse Level (BIL), and temperature rise.

c. Transformer Design and Manufacture with Throats. Experience designing and manufacturing transformers with throats for bus ducts.

d. Transformer Design and Manufacture of Mineral Oil-Immersed Transformers with Dual Cooling Classes. Transformers with natural convection oil flow through cooling equipment and windings that are air cooled by either natural circulation air cooling or by forced air circulation

(ONAN/ONAF).

Use Attachment “Offeror Experience Form” to describe the projects in which the Offeror has relevant transformer manufacturing experience. Project experience shall include adequate detail such as configuration and dimensions to demonstrate the relevancy of the scope of work for comparison to that required in this solicitation.

Offerors with ISO 9001 Certification of Design and Manufacturing Facility certified as of the date of proposal submission will be rated more favorably.

Factor 2 - Installation Experience

Proposals will be evaluated to determine installation contractor experience relevant with the scope and complexity required in the solicitation. Offerors shall provide sufficient information to clearly demonstrate the breadth and depth of the Offeror’s installation experience.

Offerors shall clearly identify the installation firm(s) that will be utilized during performance of the contract. If the prime contractor proposes to self-perform installation of the required transformer, ensure the proposal is clear that the Offeror will be performing this function. If the prime contractor proposes to use a subcontractor for the installation of the required transformer, the offeror must submit a signed Letter of Commitment from the subcontractor with the proposal.

If a subcontractor is proposed, the proposal will be considered more favorable if the proposal contains evidence of the prime and subcontractor working successfully together previously on relevant projects, than an offer with a prime and subcontractor with no prior experience working together on relevant projects.

If a joint venture is proposed, the proposal will be considered more favorable if the proposal contains evidence of the joint venture entity working successfully together previously on relevant projects, than an offer with a joint venture with no prior experience working together on relevant projects.

Offerors must demonstrate installation experience by providing at least one example of each of the elements identified in the fully relevant definition below performed within the past of ten (10) years.

Each reference project used to demonstrate installation experience must include relevant scope of work, but it’s not required to involve all of the fully relevant elements defined in this subfactor. Fully relevant installation experience is defined as projects including all of the following:

Installation of Class I and/or Class II power transformers of a minimum of 500 kVA and larger that include:

a. Installation of 115kV high-voltage tubular bus systems; and

b. Installation that includes bus duct connections.

c. Installation involving a transformer manufacturer’s erecting engineer that provides continual on-site support during delivery, movement, assembly, oil-filling, and testing of transformers.

d. Installation involving a commissioning agent that coordinates commissioning activities and develops inspection and test plans for electrical equipment of comparable type and complexity.

Use Attachment “Offeror Experience Form” to describe the projects in which the Offeror has relevant installation experience. Project experience shall include adequate detail such as configuration and dimensions to demonstrate the relevancy of the scope of work for comparison to that required in this solicitation.

FACTOR 3 – Past Performance

There are three aspects to the past performance evaluation: Recency, Relevancy (including context of data) and Quality (including general trends in the contractor performance and source of information).

The Government will evaluate the offeror’s record of past and current performance to ascertain the probability of successfully performing the required efforts of the scope of work.

a. The Government will focus its inquiries on the offeror’s (and major subcontractor’s) record of performance as it relates to all solicitation requirements, including price, schedule, performance and management of sub-contractors. Major sub-contractor are define as members of an offeror’s overall team who are expected to perform ten (10) percent or more of the proposed effort. A significant achievement, problem or lack or relevant data in any element of the work can become an important consideration in the evaluation process.

Therefore, offerors are reminded to include the most recent and relevant efforts (within the past ten years) in their proposal. Absent any recent and relevant past performance history or when the performance record is so sparse that no meaningful confidence assessment rating can be reasonably assigned, the offeror will be assigned an “unknown confidence rating” and its proposal will not be evaluated favorably or unfavorably on past performance. The Government may use data provided by the offeror in its proposal and data obtained from other sources, including data obtained through interviews with personnel familiar with the contractor and their current and past performance under Federal, State, or Local government or commercial contracts for same or similar services as compared to the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) 335311, Power Distribution, and Specialty Transformer Manufacturing. Data submitted by the offeror or gathered from other sources by the government in conducting performance risk assessments shall not extend past ten years prior to the issue date of the request for proposal, but may include performance data generated during the past ten years without regard to the contract award date. CPARS data is limited to the past 6 years. Offeror’s should provide additional performance data for projects beyond six years.

b. Offerors should submit all Government and/or commercial contract numbers and descriptions for the prime offeror and each major subcontractor in performance or awarded during the past ten years, from the issue date of this request for proposal, which are relevant to the efforts required by this solicitation.

c. The past performance factor considers each offeror’s demonstrated current and relevant past record of performance in supplying products and services that meet the contract requirements.

d. RELEVANCY: 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 and fabricators, 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 price; 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.

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.

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.

e. Quality: The third aspect of the past performance evaluation is to establish the overall quality of the offeror’s past performance. The quality past performance evaluations conducted gathers information from offeror’s customers to determine how well the offeror performed those past contracts. This quality assessment will be reflected in the overall confidence assessment described below.

f. PERFORMANCE CONFIDENCE ASSESSMENT: The final step is for the team to arrive at a single consensus performance confidence assessment for the offeror, selecting the most appropriate rating from the chart below. This rating considers the assessed quality of the relevant/current efforts gathered (documented results from Past Performance Questionnaires, interviews, CPARS, and other sources form the support and basis for this assessment). Ensure the rationale for the conclusions reached are included.

Performance Confidence Assessments

Rating Definition

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.

Neutral Confidence

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. The offeror may not be evaluated favorably or unfavorably on the factor of past performance.

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 be able to successfully perform the required effort.

Factor 4– Price

Offerors must submit completed Contract Line Item Numbers (CLINs) with unit price, quantity, and extended price.

All extensions of the unit prices shown will be subject to verification by the Government. In case of discrepancy between the unit price and the extended price, the unit price will govern.

An evaluation will be performed on the proposed prices. The evaluation will not be assigned an adjectival rating.

However, it will be evaluated for completeness and reasonableness as follows:

a. Completeness - To be complete, the Offeror must provide all data that is requested and necessary to evaluate the price. The Government will assess the extent to which the proposed prices comply with the content and format requirements set forth in this solicitation.

b. Reasonableness - The Offeror's proposal is evaluated through price analysis techniques as described in FAR Subpart 15.305(a) (1) and 15.404-1(b). For price to be reasonable, it must represent a price that provides best value to the Government when consideration is given to prices in the market, (market conditions may be evidenced by other competitive proposals), and technical and functional capabilities of the Offeror. The Offeror's price will be evaluated to determine if any are unreasonably high or low in relation to the anticipated work under the contract, as well as with current industry standards.

The classifications are listed in alphabetical order of "identifiers" that indicate whether the particular rate is a union rate (current union negotiated rate for local), a survey rate (weighted average rate) or a union average rate (weighted union average rate).

A four letter classification abbreviation identifier enclosed in dotted lines beginning with characters other than "SU" or "UAVG" denotes that the union classification and rate were prevailing for that classification in the survey. Example:

PLUM0198-005 07/01/2014. PLUM is an abbreviation identifier of the union which prevailed in the survey for this classification, which in this example would be Plumbers. 0198 indicates the local union number or district council number where applicable, i.e., Plumbers Local 0198. The next number, 005 in the example, is an internal number used in processing the wage determination. 07/01/2014 is the effective date of the most current negotiated rate, which in this example is July 1, 2014.

Union prevailing wage rates are updated to reflect all rate changes in the collective bargaining agreement (CBA) governing this classification and rate.

Survey Rate Identifiers

Classifications listed under the "SU" identifier indicate that no one rate prevailed for this classification in the survey and the published rate is derived by computing a weighted average rate based on all the rates reported in the survey for that classification. As this weighted average rate includes all rates reported in the survey, it may include both union and non-union rates. Example: SULA2012-007 5/13/2014. SU indicates the rates are survey rates based on a weighted average calculation of rates and are not majority rates. LA indicates the State of Louisiana. 2012 is the year of survey on which these classifications and rates are based. The next number, 007 in the example, is an internal number used in producing the wage determination. 5/13/2014 indicates the survey completion date for the classifications and rates under that identifier.

Survey wage rates are not updated and remain in effect until a new survey is conducted.

Union Average Rate Identifiers

Classification(s) listed under the UAVG identifier indicate that no single majority rate prevailed for those classifications; however, 100% of the data reported for the classifications was union data. EXAMPLE: UAVG-OH-0010 08/29/2014. UAVG indicates that the rate is a weighted union average rate. OH indicates the state. The next number, 0010 in the example, is an internal number used in producing the wage determination. 08/29/2014 indicates the survey completion date for the classifications and rates under that identifier.

A UAVG rate will be updated once a year, usually in January of each year, to reflect a weighted average of the current negotiated/CBA rate of the union locals from which the rate is based.

WAGE DETERMINATION APPEALS PROCESS

1.) Has there been an initial decision in the matter? This can be:

* an existing published wage determination

* a survey underlying a wage determination

* a Wage and Hour Division letter setting forth a position on a wage determination matter

* a conformance (additional classification and rate) ruling

On survey related matters, initial contact, including requests for summaries of surveys, should be with the Wage and Hour Regional Office for the area in which the survey was conducted because those Regional Offices have responsibility for the Davis-Bacon survey program. If the response from this initial contact is not satisfactory, then the process described in 2.)

and 3.) should be followed.

With regard to any other matter not yet ripe for the formal process described here, initial contact should be with the Branch of Construction Wage Determinations. Write to:

Branch of Construction Wage Determinations Wage and Hour Division U.S. Department of Labor 200 Constitution Avenue, N.W.

Washington, DC 20210

2.) If the answer to the question in 1.) is yes, then an interested party (those affected by the action) can request review and reconsideration from the Wage and Hour Administrator (See 29 CFR Part 1.8 and 29 CFR Part 7). Write to:

Wage and Hour Administrator U.S. Department of Labor 200 Constitution Avenue, N.W.

Washington, DC 20210

The request should be accompanied by a full statement of the interested party's position and by any information (wage payment data, project description, area practice material, etc.) that the requestor considers relevant to the issue.

3.) If the decision of the Administrator is not favorable, an interested party may appeal directly to the Administrative Review Board (formerly the Wage Appeals Board). Write to:

Administrative Review Board U.S. Department of Labor 200 Constitution Avenue, N.W.

Washington, DC 20210

4.) All decisions by the Administrative Review Board are final.
