Task Orders placed under this Single-Award Task Order Contract (SATOC) include, but are not limited to design and construction related to demolition, renovation, and repairs related to multiple facility types within the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Jacksonville District. Facilities may be commercial, industrial, military, logistical, or any other types where general construction trades and practices are typically used in the construction, renovation, expansion and repairs. Facilities may be located within private lands, within federal, state, municipal, territorial or Indian Lands, or within the contiguous coastal zones to a depth of 12 feet. Project sponsors may be military or other government agencies, organizations, or entities for whom the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers is assigned as the Construction Agent.

The contract is not only intended to execute new construction and design-build, but to provide timely response to remediation of real and personal property facilities, e.g.

maintenance, repair and construction related to architectural, structural, roofing, carpentry, masonry, mechanical, heating ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC), plumbing, electrical and electronic, fire protection or life safety systems, typical and atypical interior and exterior finishes, as well as associated site work, utilities, landscaping, security, force protection, petroleum oil and lubricant (POL) systems, instrumentation, or interior design. Tasks may involve industrial process equipment, industrial ventilation systems, building controls and energy management systems.

a. Sub-Factor 1 - Specialized Experience

b. Sub-Factor 2 - Organization and Technical Approach

c. Sub-Factor 3 - Remaining Performance Capability

Second most important factor, slightly less important than Factor 1.

G. PHASE 1 FACTOR SUBMISSION REQUIREMENTS AND EVALUATION METHODS

FACTOR 1- TECHNICAL MERIT

In responding to this factor, the objective should be to instill confidence that the offeror thoroughly understands the requirements and complexities of this project, has the knowledge, expertise and experience required to meet or exceed the terms and conditions of these specifications, and the ability to successfully accomplish and complete the requirements of this contract within the required time frames as specified.

Specialized Experience -Submission Requirements

The prime contractor and the design firm(s) (or prime contractor if design is to be self-performed) shall each demonstrate recent, relevant experience on projects that are similar in nature, magnitude, and complexity to the work described in this solicitation, Attachment 2 Attachment 3) at the end of the section. Offerors may identify projects that are similar to the types listed below in Relevant Specialized Experience. 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 or completed and turned over no longer than ten (10) years preceding the date of this Solicitation. A well underway project is defined as 100% designed and at least 80% construction progress completed. If a project is presented and has not been completed, the offeror shall explain which elements of the work are not completed and the completion percentage. 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. Design firms may list prime contractors they have worked for or government, private or commercial customers. The offeror shall select the design firm(s), if projects were design-build, so identify them.

than five (5) projects similar to the types listed in Relevant Specialized Experience.

Note: Additional space may be used with both Attachments 2 and 3 to adequately describe submitted projects. If more than 5 projects are submitted, only the first 5 projects will be evaluated.

Relevant Specialized Experience for Evaluation Consideration:

1.0 General Construction projects in commercial or industrial facilities for construction, renovation, repair, and expansion related to interior and exterior architectural features that included incidental work related to mechanical, electrical, structural (to include deep foundations) or civil features.

minimum of three (3) projects similar to the type described in Relevant Specialized Experience. The maximum number of submitted projects that will be evaluated is five (5) projects. If more than 5 projects are submitted, only the first 5 projects will be evaluated.

Note: Additional space may be used with both Attachments 2 and 3 to adequately no more than five (5) projects detailed for Design experience specifically for the project types listed under Relevant Specialized Experience. Design experience not related to Relevant Specialized Experience will not be evaluated. If more than 5 projects are submitted, only the first 5 projects will be evaluated.

The Government will evaluate the extent of recent, related experience of the prime contractor and design firms in design, construction or design-build, as relevant to their role on this project. The design firm(s) or the design capabilities of the prime contractor will be evaluated only for experience in Relevant Specialized Experience. Higher evaluation ratings will be given for construction projects examples which are similar in function, scope, complexity, location and size to this solicitation and clearly demonstrate schedule. In addition, this criterion will be evaluated for the quantity and quality of experience demonstrated. The greater the relevance and the more recent the prior project experience, the higher the rating assigned during evaluations. Demonstration of experience in completing projects that had the unique characteristics of the proposed project will be evaluated favorably.

Higher evaluation ratings will be given for projects where the contractor has previously worked with the Designer.

The Government may place greater importance on projects performed as a prime contractor than as a subcontractor, depending upon overall role and relevancy considerations. Federal Government project experience will not be rated inherently more important than non-Federal Government project experience.

The Offeror must submit the requested information to demonstrate a record of recent, related experience in both design and construction, for projects that are similar to the Relevant Specialized Experience (which may include similar state or local government or private counterparts) included in this solicitation. Recent experience includes projects well underway (see above criteria) or those completed and turned over within ten (10) years of the proposal issue date for this solicitation for design or construction experience.

Joint Venture partners should each demonstrate experience commensurate with their role on this project or explain in a detailed narrative how their experience qualifies them for their role on this project.

To receive credit for extent (amount) of experience, the Offeror and its proposed design firm(s) shall demonstrate a history of recent, relevant experience. A firm will not receive credit under this factor for the relevant experience of key personnel proposed for this project.

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

(1) Nature, magnitude, and complexity and location

(2) Dates (80% completed or completed no more than ten (10) years preceding date of Solicitation)

Previous design-build (D-B) experience is not necessary for an acceptable rating. The Government may consider previous D-B experience a strength, 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.

The ability for contractor personnel to gain access to secure facilities to perform work is required. Previous experience working on or in occupied facilities is considered a strength. Projects that demonstrate phasing to minimally impact ongoing operations may receive additional consideration.

The firm(s) or prime contractor preparing the design must demonstrate qualifications and experience in design considerations and development of designs of the types listed in Relevant Specialized Experience.

Once the individual rating for Sub-Factor 1, Specialized Experience, the rating for Sub- Factor 2, Organizational and Technical Approach and Sub-Factor 3, Remaining Performance Capacity, are assigned, an overall Technical Merit Rating will be assigned

FACTOR 2- PAST PERFORMANCE

Offerors shall submit one NAVFAC/USACE Past Performance Questionnaire (see Attachment 4), completed and signed by an Owner of the Project (Client) point of contact

EXPERIENCE and Sub-Factor 3 Remaining Performance Capabilities. All pages of each N AVFAC/USACE Past Performance Questionnaire must be initialed and dated on the b ottom right-hand corner by the POC. Failure to provide a completed and signed N AVFAC/USACE Past Performance Questionnaire for each project as described above m ay be noted as a deficiency. If a Construction Contract Administration Support S ystem (CCASS) record is available for any of the projects submitted under Sub- F actor 1-Demonstrated Experience, and Sub-Factor 3 Remaining Performance C apabilities, the CCASS record may be submitted in lieu of the completed Past P erformance Questionnaire or an official Performance Evaluation from a non-f ederal agency.

the project after construction was complete.

If the offeror is unable to obtain a completed Past Performance Questionnaire from the Owner of the Project (Client), before the proposal receipt date, the offeror shall complete and submit with the proposal the first page of the Questionnaire (Blocks 1-8) that contains contract and client information for the submitted project. Note:

information is current and correct. The client point of contact reflected in Blocks 1- 8 should also be familiar with the past performance they are being asked to verify and informed that they will be contacted by the Government to verify past performance.

The Government reserves the right to obtain copies of all CCASS records contained in subcontractors.

Evaluation Method the solicitation requirements. The assessment considers each offeror's demonstrated recent and relevant past performances in supplying services that meet the solicitation requirements. There are two aspects to the past performance evaluation.

the effort to be acquired. The technical evaluation team will evaluate the demonstrated experiences provided by the offeror under Sub-Factor 1 and Sub-Factor 3 above.

Relevancy will be determined based on the timeframe for project completion given under Sub-Factor 1 and Sub-Factor 3 and the level of similarity between the offeror provided demonstrated experiences and the solicitation requirements. For example, a demonstrated experience provided under Sub-Factor 1 or 3 that was completed within the last ten years (measured from the date of the solicitation) that involves essentially the same scope and magnitude of effort and complexities as this solicitation requires will most likely be given a relevancy rating of Very Relevant (see Relevance Rating Definitions below).

The second aspect of the past performance evaluation is to determine how well the contractor performed a demonstrated experience submitted in Sub-Factor 1 and Sub- Factor 3. This will be determined by utilizing the completed NAVFAC/USACE Past Performance Questionnaires or submitted CCASS records. The POC provided on the NAVFAC/USACE Past Performance Questionnaire will be contacted to verify the past performance ratings provided. If the POC cannot be contacted, the past performance contact information is current (i.e. names, addresses, telephone numbers and email addresses). The point of contact should be familiar with the performance they are intended to verify and be aware that they will be contacted by the Government.

Once Relevancy Ratings are assigned and Past Performance Ratings are verified, the Government will conclude the past performance evaluation with a performance confidence assessment. The performance confidence assessment will be based on the relevance of the projects provided and the ratings received based on the submitted and completed NAVFAC/USACE Past Performance Questionnaires as well as CCASS if available. The performance confidence is the level of risk associated with the offeror as it relates to the probability that the offeror will successfully complete this project (see Performance Confidence Assessments Definitions below).

PAST PERFORMANCE RATINGS

RPerformance Confidence Assessments Rating Description

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

performance record, the Government has a reasonable expectation that the offeror will successfully perform the required effort.

performance record, the Government has a low expectation that the offeror will successfully perform the required effort.

performance record, the Government has no expectation that the offeror will be able to 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. The offeror may not be evaluated favorably or unfavorably on the factor of past

In performing the past performance factor evaluation, evaluators will apply the following relevance levels to assess the relevance of the prior contract effort(s) of offerors.

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.

PHASE 1 EVALUATION PROCEDURES

SOURCE SELECTION EVALUATION BOARD (SSEB)

The SSEB will be established to conduct the evaluation of proposals received in response to this solicitation. The evaluation will be based on the content of the proposal, and any information obtained from other sources, e.g. past performance information. The SSEB will not consider any proposal incorporated by reference, except as expressly allowed by this solicitation.

EVALUATION

Each member of the SSEB will evaluate and rate the proposals independently and subsequently assign a consensus rating for each evaluation factor and sub-factor.

Offerors are cautioned to put forth their best efforts for the Phase 1 submission, and to furnish all information clearly to allow the Government to determine their performance capability.

The Source Selection Authority / Contracting Officer, independently exercising prudent business judgment, will select not more than five of the most highly qualified offerors to compete for the design-build award in Phase 2.

DEFINITIONS

Deficiency- A material failure of a proposal to meet a Government requirement or a combination of significant weaknesses in a proposal that increases the risk of unsuccessful contract performance to an unacceptable level.

Weakness- A flaw in the proposal that increases the risk of unsuccessful contract

Significant Weakness - A flaw in the proposal that appreciably increases the risk of unsuccessful contract performance.

Strength- is an aspect of an offeror's proposal that has merit or exceeds specified performance or capability requirements in a way that will be advantageous to the Government during contract performance.

Significant Strength-A significant strength appreciably enhances the merit of a proposal or appreciably enhances the probability of successful contract performance.

Deviation- Proposal implies or specifically offers a deviation below the specified criteria.

A DEVIATION IS CONSIDERED A DEFICIENCY. The proposal must conform to the solicitation requirements for award.

EVALUATION AND RATING SYSTEM

General: The Government will review the proposals and rate the quality of each evaluation factor and sub-factor (if any). Each member of the SSEB will rate each proposal against the specified evaluation criteria in the Solicitation requirements. The technical rating assigned will reflect the degree to which the proposal meets or does not meet the minimum requirements through an assessment of the strengths, weaknesses, deficiencies, and risks of a proposal. After all proposals are rated, the Source Selection Authority will determine which Offerors are rated as most highly qualified offerors under Phase 1 to short-list for participation in Phase 2.

Rating System: After listing proposal strengths, weaknesses and deficiencies, the SSEB each offeror's technical ability, as demonstrated in its proposal, to perform the requirements stated in the RFP. The adjectival ratings shall be assigned, using the following criteria, which incorporate a proposal risk assessment:

TECHNICAL MERIT RATING DEFINITIONS

Combined Technical/Risk Ratings Adjectival Rating Definition

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…
