3. TASK ORDER CALCULATIONS.

3.1 . Calculating Total Cost.

3.1.1. In calculating the total cost, R.S. Means, the area coefficient (AC), U.S. National Averages (USNA), Home Office Overhead (HOOH), Field Office Overhead (FOOH) and Profit are all considered. When applicable, design costs and NC state taxes are also considered.

3.1.2. Using R.S. Means Database:

3.1.2.1. The offeror shall use the electronic version in developing a proposal. Each proposal will be generated from CostWorks using a CSI Number: The R.S. Means database consists of a MasterFormat System of classifications and numbering developed by the Construction Specification Institute (CSI). Each line item in the database has its own unique CSI identifier.

The offeror shall use the electronic version in developing a proposal, selecting the appropriate CSI number(s) in the RS Means Cost works program for each individual item. R.S. Means is updated quarterly each year. The offeror must select the location. Typically, the City Cost Indexes are electronically applied to the CSI items. However, for this contract, the offeror is required to use the USNA. The example shown below is for informational purposes only:

3.1.2.2. Example: Design and construct a 10,000 SF Building: Combination Warehouse & Offices

(typical for 10 locations): 125’x 80’x20’H, masonry structure.

A. Install an 8’x8’ (Commercial) wood Overhead Door in each building; including trim, hardware, and painting. Doors shall also have electric openers (including hardware) installed.

B. Install 10 Exterior wood doors (3’x6’-8”), frames, trim and hardware in each structure. Doors shall be weatherstripped, stained and finished.

C. Each building (10) shall have its front face (125’x20’) painted (2 coats exterior latex)

D. Install 10 Wrought iron security Doors, including hardware, in same opening as exterior wood doors.

NOTE: Example provided is only a small representation of all items needed for a complete Task Order Proposal.

Using the appropriate electronic version of R.S. Means the offeror shall select the appropriate CSI line item number. Below shows the CSI numbers utilizing the “Bare Costs”:

3.1.3. Applying the Area Coefficient:

3.1.3.1. Next sum all of the Bare Cost Totals for all of the CSI items to get a total direct cost.

Then apply the Area Coefficient to get the Area Coefficient Total for the task order.

Net Sum of all Bare Cost Totals = $7,950,000.00 (Warehouse) + $25,839.20 (Overhead Door) + $11,606.20 (Exterior Doors) + $8,250.00 (Painting) = $7,995,695.40 Then the proposed Area Coefficient is applied.

Area Coefficient Total = Net Sum of all Bare Cost Totals X Area Coefficient

For Example A: If your Area Coefficient is a net decrease of 0.95, your Area Coefficient Total would be: $7,995,695.40 X 0.95 = $7,595,910.63

Or

For Example B: If your Area Coefficient is a net increase of 1.20, your Area Coefficient Total would be: $7,995,695.40 X 1.20 = $9,594,834.48

3.1.4. Applying Sales Taxes (where applicable):

3.1.4.1. Only for projects in North Carolina, offeror will apply state taxes pertinent to that city/county to material costs only. Taxes will be calculated and added to the Area Coefficient Total to calculate the Adjusted Area Coefficient Subtotal:

For example Sales Taxes are 7%:

Description Bare Material

Sales Tax (7%)

Wood overhead door, commercial sectional, including track, door, hardware and trim electrically operated $15,772.80 $1,104.10

Single solid wood colonial door, 6 panel fir, 6’-8” X 3’-0” with food frame and trim. Stained & finished including hardware and weatherstripping

$7,839.60 $548.77

Spray painting siding: Primer & 2 coats exterior latex $2,500.00 $175.00

Total Taxes $1,827.87

Adjusted Area Coefficient Subtotal = Area Coefficient Total + Total Taxes Example A: $7,595,910.63 + $1,827.87 = $7,597,738.50

Example B: $9,594,834.48 + $1,827.87 = $9,596,662.35

3.1.5. Applying Field Office Overhead (FOOH):

3.1.5.1. Next offeror will submit an itemized list of FOOH expenses utilizing R.S. Means. FOOH will be negotiated and added to the Adjusted Area Coefficient Total to calculate the Prime Total Direct Cost (PTDC):

For example if your (negotiated) FOOH is $5,000:

PTDC = Adjusted Area Coefficient Total + FOOH Example A: $7,597,738.50 + $5,000 = $7,602,738.50 Example B: $9,596,662.35 + $5,000 = $9,601,662.35

3.1.6. Applying Home Office Overhead (HOOH):

3.1.6.1. After calculating the Subtotal, the (fixed) HOOH will be calculated.

For this Example if your HOOH is 5%:

Construction Subtotal = PTDC x HOOH

Example A: $7,602,738.50 x 5% = ($380,136.93) + $7,602,738.50 = $7,982,875.43 Example B: $9,601,662.35 x 5% = ($480,083.12) + $9,601,662.35 = $10,081,745.47

3.1.7. Including Non-Priced Item:

3.1.7.1. Next offeror will submit three (3) itemized quotes list for items not located in R.S. Means.

Non-Priced Items will be negotiated and added to the PTDC + HOOH to calculate the Construction Subtotal:

The Wrought Iron Screen was not found in R.S. Means, therefore, three quotes were submitted.

Quote Number 1 was not selected because the price did not include hardware; Quote Number 2 was selected because all scope requirements were met; Quote Number 3 was not selected, although the scope requirements were met, the price was higher than Quote Number 2.

Costs for Non-Priced Items shall include their mark-ups for Field Office Overhead, Home Office Overhead and Bond Premium.

Let’s Say for Selected Quote Number 2:

Wrought Iron Security Doors = $6,690.00 Field Office Overhead is 5%: $6,690.00 x 5% = $334.50 $7,024.50 Home Office Overhead is 10%: $7,024.50 x 10% = 702.45 $7,726.95 Bond Premium is 1%: $7,726.95 x 1% = $77.27 Total for Non-Priced Item (w/mark-ups) = $7,804.22

Construction Subtotal = (PTDC + HOOH) + Non-Priced Item(s) Example A: $$7,982,875.43 + $7,804.22 = $7,990,679.65

Example B: $10,081,745.47 +$7,804.22 = $10,089,549.69

3.1.8. Applying Profit:

3.1.8.1. After calculating the Construction Subtotal the (negotiated) Profit will be applied to achieve the Construction Total for the Task Order.

For this Example if your Profit is 8%:

Construction Total = (Construction Subtotal x Profit) Example A: $7,990,679.65 x 8% = ($639,254.37) + $7,990,679.65 = $8,629,934.02

[$8,629,934]* Example B: $10,089,549.69 x 8% = ($807,163.98) + $10,089,549.69 = $10,896,713.66

[$10,896,714]*

*For ease of calculations, please round final numbers.

3.1.9. Calculating Design Fee:

3.1.9.1. After achieving the Construction Total for the Task Order, Design Fee will be calculated as a percentage of the Construction Total. Design Fees are located in R.S. Means and are based on a percentage of the construction cost. These fees will be negotiated for each Task Order and added as a separate line item on the Offerors proposal.

For this Example if your Design Fee is 4% of the construction cost then the design cost is calculated as:

Design Costs = Construction Total x Fee % Example A: $8,629,934.02 x 4% = $345,197.36 [$345,197]* Example B: $10,896,713.66 x 4% = $435,868.55 [$435,869]*

*For ease of calculations, please round final numbers.

4. HOME OFFICE OVERHEAD

4.1. Home Office Overhead shall be represented as a percentage increase to the Applied Coefficient Total. The proposed rate will apply to ALL task orders issued under this contract.

4.2. Offeror’s shall propose a Home Office Overhead rate for the two (2) year base period and the three 1 year option periods. The rates awarded will be locked-in for the life of the contract and will not change.

5. PRICE EVALUATION PROCEDURE

5.1. Area Coefficient Estimated Capacity Values are identified for each location in the following table. The Estimated Capacity Value will be multiplied by the corresponding proposed area coefficient to determine a total for each location. These Applied Area Coefficient Totals will then be multiplied by the Home Office Overhead Rate for the Base Period only. These Evaluated Totals will then be added together to obtain the total evaluated price for Schedule A.

5.2. The Home Office Overhead Rates proposed for Option Periods 1, 2 a n d 3 WILL NOT be included in the evaluated price, but will be evaluated to ensure REASONABLENESS

ONLY.

PROPOSAL SUBMISSION REQUIREMENTS AND INSTRUCTIONS

1. OVERVIEW.

1.1 This Request for Proposal (RFP) solicits for a Single Award Task Order Contract (SATOC) under which task orders for General Construction are expected to be issued with work in South Atlantic Division (SAD) (North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Florida, Alabama). Task Orders issued under any resultant contract(s) will be Firm-Fixed Price and may be either of a Construction or Design/Build nature. A project requiring use of civil funds is not authorized under this contract.

1.2 The purpose of the Source Selection plan is to establish a uniform evaluation procedure for the technical evaluation of proposals by the Source Selection Evaluation Board (SSEB) and the development of the Best Value Decision by the Source Selection Authority (SSA) using the Trade-Off Process (See Federal Acquisition Regulation 15.101-1). In as much as the proposal shall describe the capability of the Offeror to perform any resulting contract, and task orders issued there under, the proposal should be specific and complete in every detail as well as be prepared simply and economically, providing a straightforward and concise description of capabilities to satisfactorily perform the contract and task orders issued thereafter.

1.3 For the purposes of this solicitation, the Government will utilize the Two (2) Phase Design Build Process. In Phase 1 of the 2 phase design-build selection procedure, interested Offerors will submit specified performance capability proposals for review and consideration by the Government. The Government will evaluate these performance capability proposals in accordance with the criteria described herein.

1.4 The Government will evaluate the performance capability proposals in accordance with the criteria described herein and will select up to five (5) of the highest rated Offerors to participate in Phase 2.

1.5 In Phase 2 of this process, the Government will evaluate both technical capability and price.

1.6 Only those Offerors who receive a written notification from the Savannah District Contracting Officer that their firm has been selected to participate in Phase 2 of this solicitation are invited to submit a Phase 2 proposal. The Government intends to announce the names of Offerors selected for Phase 2 in the FEDBIZOPS website. An Offeror that does not want this information released must provide a written notification and explanation of its objections to release of the information. Those Offerors selected for Phase 2 will be provided the technical requirements package for a Sample Task Order that may be representative of the type work and task orders anticipated to be issued under any resultant contract(s).

2. GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS

2.1 Firms formally organized as design-build entities, design firms and construction contractors that have associated specifically for performance of this contract, consortia of firms, or any other interested parties may submit proposals. A design firm or construction contractor may offer more than one proposal by entering into more than one association.

Associations may be joint ventures or include key team subcontractors. Any legally organized Offeror may submit a proposal.

2.2 Contractor Team Arrangements. Contractor Team Arrangements are considered an arrangement in which (1) two or more companies form a partnership or joint venture to act as a potential prime contractor; or (2) a potential prime contractor agrees with one or more other companies to have them act as its subcontractors under a specified Government contract or acquisition program. In accordance with FAR Subpart 9.6, the Government will recognize the integrity and validity of contractor team arrangements; provided, the arrangements are identified and company relationships are fully disclosed in the offer. The Offeror shall identify the major or critical aspects of the requirement to be performed by those identified in the Contractor Team Arrangement.

The submission must contain a narrative that clearly explains the relevance to a particular factor of information concerning a company that is part of a Contractor Team Arrangement.

The Government will consider the adequacy of this explanation in deciding the relevance of the information to this procurement. Any narrative provided should be incorporated into the Offeror’s proposal at Tab D.

2.3 Notwithstanding the specific requirements of any other area of the RFP, information submitted about any company other than the Offeror, whether a predecessor company, affiliated company, subsidiary (including wholly owned subsidiaries), or subcontractors that will perform major or critical aspects of this requirement, or other associated business, WILL NOT be evaluated for any factor unless the proposal contains a detailed narrative explaining why this submitted information is relevant to this acquisition. The Government will consider the adequacy of this explanation in deciding the relevance and weight, if any, of the information to this procurement. Where information about a subcontractor is properly submitted and given significant weight during the evaluation, the failure of the Offeror to actually perform with that subcontractor may be grounds for termination for default. Any narrative provided should be incorporated into the Offeror’s proposal at Tab D.

4.1. SUBMISSION REQUIREMENTS.

4.1.1. The Offeror shall demonstrate a record of construction performance and experience on recent relevant projects using the Past Performance Questionnaire Summary Sheet, Attachment 2 and the Past Performance Questionnaire, Attachment 3 at the end of this section. The Past Performance Questionnaire (PPQ) is provided for the offeror or its construction team members to submit to the client (Point of Contact) for each relevant project submitted. Offeror must ensure correct phone numbers and email addresses are provided for the client. Completed PPQs must be submitted with your proposal by the specified closing date and time. Offerors should follow-up with clients/references to ensure timely submittal of questionnaires. If the offeror is unable to obtain a completed PPQ from a point of contact for a project(s) before proposal closing date, the Offeror shall complete blocks 1 – 5 of the PPQ and submit it with the proposal. Please note that, at a minimum, this first page of the PPQ must contain sufficient information for the government to determine the relevancy of the project. In addition, this will provide contract and client information for the respective project(s). The Government may call and confirm information provided by the Offeror on the PPQs with the points of contact, to the extent necessary to verify the information in the PPQ or to obtain additional information. The Government reserves the right to interview other individuals if the point of contact is not available. By exception, the client may request, submission of questionnaires directly to the Government’s point of contact (Contract Specialist), Addison Layfield . Request may be made via email to addison.g.layfield@usace.army.mil. This request must be coordinated by the client in advance no later than five (5) business days before the proposal due date. PPQ’s submitted directly to the Contract Specialist shall be mailed via trackable means (certified US Mail, FedEx, or UPS). If the PPQ fails to arrive before the closing date and time, or if the information on the PPQ is insufficient to determine the Offeror’s name and appropriate solicitation number, it will not be considered.

Offerors are cautioned that the information submitted pertaining to a project shall be limited to the PPQ form and shall contain enough information to determine relevancy of a project. Additional project information attached to the PPQ will not be evaluated.

Likewise, Project Information submitted in a format other than or in lieu of the PPQ (to include CCASS) will not be considered. Offerors shall not incorporate by reference into their proposal PPQs previously submitted for other RFPs. However, this does not preclude the Government from utilizing previously submitted PPQ information in the past performance evaluation. Offerors may submit PPQs submitted on other procurements provided they are on the NAVFAC/USACE Past Performance Questionnaire Form.

In addition to the PPQ, the Offeror’s proposal shall include the Past Performance Questionnaire Summary Sheet (Attachment 2) to provide a summary of the PPQs included and/or submitted to clients. The summary sheet at a minimum shall include the following: 1) Project name; 2) Team member submitting the project; 3) Contract Number; 4) Construction percent completed at the time of the solicitation; 5) Scheduled completion date; and 6) Indicate if the project was design-bid-build or design build.

The offeror may include performance recognition documents received within the last five (5) years for only the projects submitted, such as awards, award fee determinations, customer letters of commendation, and any other forms of performance recognition. Performance recognition documents shall not exceed eight (8) documents for the entire team.

Offerors should identify state and local government and private contracts that are similar to the Government’s requirements described in 4.1.2 and 4.2.2. If the Offeror is a joint venture, each firm shall provide information, demonstrating experience relevant to their expected role on this contract. If any firm has multiple functions or divisions, limit the project examples to those performed by the division, unit or team member submitting the offer.

4.1.2. Offeror shall submit projects that have a minimum value of no less than $1 million each and that demonstrate experience similar to the various requirements described in paragraph 1 (Description of Work) in the Scope of Work. Projects must be successfully completed, or fully designed and at least 50% construction progress completed within five (5) years preceding the date of this solicitation. Projects that meet these criteria will be evaluated to determine the level of relevancy. Please note that projects submitted by design firms will not be evaluated in this factor. Design firms shall submit projects in accordance with the requirements in Factor 2.

4.1.3. Offerors shall submit no more than eight (8) PPQs (Attachment 3). Project information shall be limited to the PPQ.
