NOTES TO OFFEROR

1. SAM REGISTRATION. All bidders must register and complete online representations and certifications in the System for Award Management (SAM) at www.sam.gov prior to the bid opening. Bidders that have not registered or completed their online representations and certifications may be rejected. Bidders are advised that the initial registration process in SAM may take several weeks. The Government will review completed Representations and Certifications in SAM following the bid opening. Submission of paper copies of completed representations and certifications is NOT required with bid submissions.

2. BIDDER INQUIRIES. Any prospective bidder desiring an explanation or interpretation of the solicitation, drawings, specifications, etc., must submit their questions using the ProjNet system at https://www.projnet.org

Clause 52.214-6 requires that all inquiries be submitted in writing. To submit a new inquiry or to view inquiries submitted by other prospective bidders, users must be registered and signed into the ProjNet system . Bidders may register online at https://www.projnet.org (click on “Register”). The following information will be needed to submit or view bidder inquiries:

Managing Agency: USACE The Solicitation Number is: W912ES-15-B-0003 The Bidder Inquiry “Key” Number is: AM8BF8-IJZCTU

Bidders shall submit inquiries not later than 10 days prior to bid opening in order to ensure adequate time is allotted to form an appropriate response and amend the solicitation if necessary. Those who submit an inquiry will receive a system-generated email acknowledgement. All answers to inquiries will be posted in ProjNet after they have been reviewed by the USACE technical team. Bidders are advised to review the solicitation in its entirety and to review all previously submitted questions and responses prior to submitting a new inquiry.

3. BID BONDS

a. This solicitation requires each offeror to submit an acceptable bid guarantee along with its offer (see clause 52.228-1). The Contracting Officer has the authority and responsibility to determine whether the bid bond and its accompanying documentation clearly show that the person(s) executing the bid bond on behalf of the surety have the authority to unequivocally bind the bonding company.

b. One acceptable form of bid guarantee is a bid bond. If a bid bond is used, it must be accompanied by a signed and dated power-of-attorney. If a signed and dated power-of-attorney does not accompany the bid bond, the bid must be rejected as non-responsive. Please note that a non-responsive bid may not be corrected after bid opening to make it responsive – the bid must be rejected. The power-of-attorney must be issued by the surety (the Treasury Department-approved bonding company, not the insurance agency writing the bond).

c. Original powers-of-attorney and photocopies or facsimiles of original, otherwise valid, powers-of attorney provide sufficient evidence of authority to bind the surety. Questions concerning the authenticity or enforceability of a power-of-attorney may be resolved by the Contracting Officer, often in consultation with the surety, after the bid opening.

d. This note does not provide offerors with an all-inclusive checklist for submitting an acceptable bid bond rather, it provides some information regarding recent changes to the Federal Acquisition Regulation regarding the validity of powers-of-attorney. The revised regulation may be found at

FAR 28.101-3.

e. The revised regulations described in this note are effective for solicitations issued after September 30, 2005.

4. RESPONSIBILITY DETERMINATION. In accordance with Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Subpart 9.1, the apparent low bidder will be requested to provide the following information:

a. A detailed description of the work to be self-performed and resources available to demonstrate the firm is capable of complying with: (1) 52.000-4008, Small Business Set-aside Requirements for Dredging and (2) 52.219-14, Limitations on Subcontracting.

b. Financial Statements, including balance sheets that identify major categories of assets, liabilities, and owner’s equity; and profit and loss statements for the past three (3) years.

c. A Bank Certification of Financial Capability (line of credit).

Bidder qualification information, as referenced in the provision at 52.209-4001, must be received by the Contracting Officer within two (2) business days after the bid opening. This information will be treated as confidential commercial or financial information to the extent permitted by law under exemption 4 to the Freedom of Information Act, 5 U.S.C. § 552(b)(4). The financial statements should be not over 60 days old. If over 60 days old, a certification should be attached stating that the financial condition of the firm is substantially the same or, if not the same, the changes that have taken place.

5. Offerors are advised to note ANTITERRORISM/OPERATIONS SECURITY special contract requirements (Section 00 80 00).

6. FACSIMILE OF BIDS AND MODIFICATIONS THERETO WILL NOT BE ACCEPTED.

7. This solicitation and any forthcoming amendments will only be available on www.fbo.gov. Any forthcoming amendments will only be available on this web site. It is recommended that each registered firm check this website periodically for updates.

8. All Quantities are estimated except where unit is given as "EA" (each) or "JOB" (job).

9. All extensions of the unit prices shown will be subject to verification by the Government. In case of a discrepancy between the unit price and the extension, the unit price will govern. For further information reference clause MVP-0002 entitled “Apparent Clerical Mistakes” in Section 00 80 00.

10. UNBALANCED BIDS. The government may reject as non-responsive any bid that is materially unbalanced between contract line item numbers or sub-items on the bidding schedule. A bid is materially unbalanced when it is based on prices that are significantly less than cost for some work and significantly more than cost for other work. A materially unbalanced bid may be rejected if the Contracting Officer has a reasonable doubt as to whether the bid will result in the lowest overall cost to the government even though it may be the low evaluated bid. Additionally, a bid that is unbalanced so as to be tantamount to an advance payment will be rejected as non-responsive even if acceptance of the bid would result in the lowest overall cost to the government. Reference is made to paragraph (d) of clause 52.214-19, “Contract Award – Sealed Bidding – Construction.”
