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”:

CSI Number Description Unit Bare

Material Bare

Labor Bare

Equip Bare Total

B2030 240

Single solid wood colonial door, 6 panel fir, 6’-8” X 3’-0” with food frame and trim.

Stained & finished including hardware and weather-stripping

EA $783.96 $376.66 $0 $1,160.62

NOTE: Assembly Costs were used for both the Overhead and Exterior Doors

Once the CSI number is selected, the offeror will input the appropriate quantity. See below.

Qty CSI Number Description Unit Bare

Labor Bare

Equip Bare Total

10 B2030 240

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

EA $7,839.60 $3766.60 $0 $11,606.20

4.1.3. Applying the Area Coefficient:

4.1.3.1. 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 = $11,606.20 (Exterior Doors) Then the proposed Area Coefficient is applied.

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

For Example: If your Area Coefficient is a net decrease of 0.95, your Area Coefficient Total would be:

$11,606.20 X 0.95 = $11,025.89

4.1.4. Applying Field Office Overhead (FOOH):

4.1.4.1. 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: $11,025.89 + $5,000 = $16,025.89

4.1.5. Including Non-priced Item:

4.1.5.1. 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 Adjusted Area Coefficient Subtotal to calculate the Adjusted Area Coefficient Total.

4.1.6. Applying Home Office Overhead (HOOH):

4.1.6.1. After calculating the Subtotal, the (fixed) HOOH will be applied.

For this Example, if your HOOH is 5%:

Construction Subtotal = PTDC x HOOH

Example: $16,025.89 x 5% = ($801.29) + $16,025.89 = $16,827.18

4.1.7. Applying Profit:

4.1.7.1. After calculating the Construction Subtotal the (negotiated) Profit will be applied to achieve the Construction Total for the Task Order. As noted above, the Government prefers the Weighted Guidelines Method for calculating Profit:

For this Example, if your Profit is 8%:

Construction Total = (Construction Subtotal x Profit) Example: $16,827.18 x 8% = ($1,346.17) + $17,403.39 = $18,749.56 [Rounded to $18,750]*

*For ease of calculations, please round final numbers.

4.1.8. Calculating Design Fee:

4.1.8.1. If applicable, the Design Fee shall be calculated as a percentage of the Construction Total as outlined within R.S. Means. References to these typical fees can be located within RS Means and will be negotiated for a 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: $18,750 x 4% = $750 [Rounded to $750]* *For ease of calculations, please round final numbers.

5. HOME OFFICE OVERHEAD

5.1. The Offeror shall propose a Home Office Overhead rate for the base period and the option period(s). The rate will remain constant and will apply to ALL task orders issued during the respective periods.

6. PRICE EVALUATION PROCEDURE

6.1. 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.

6.2. The Home Office Overhead Rates proposed for t h e b a s e p e r i o d a n d a l l o p t i o n p e r i o d s WILL NOT be included in the evaluated price but will be evaluated to ensure REASONABLENESS ONLY.

6.3. The Government shall use the total evaluated price as described in paragraph 6 “Price Evaluation Procedure”.

6.4. An EXAMPLE price evaluation chart for Schedule A is below:

***EXAMPLE NOTES: The ‘Estimated Capacity Value’ for each Base/Installation has been determined based on historic use of similar contracts and the anticipated use of a contract awarded as a result of this solicitation. In the example, the coefficients and the estimated capacity cause the “Total Evaluated Price” to exceed the maximum amount of the contract; however, the total value of all task orders issued under a contract will not exceed the total capacity of the contract. Offerors are not limited to proposing coefficients that make the total evaluated price greater or less than the total contract capacity value. This method of calculating an evaluated price is used as a way to compare the effect of coefficients for work at different bases based on an estimated but not necessarily actual amount of work that will be awarded at each base/installation.

7. RESIDENT MANAGEMENT SYSTEM CONTRACTOR MODE (RMS CM): Any contract award resulting from this solicitation will require the mandatory use of the automated RMS CM.

8. SECURITY REQUIREMENTS: Increased security at military installations may require vehicle and personnel registration, as well as 100% ID checks and random vehicle searches.

9. TECHNICAL MATTERS: Technical inquiries are to be submitted via Bidder Inquiry in 10 calendar days 10 calendar days prior to receipt of proposals.

4.1 SUBMISSION REQUIREMENTS.

4.1.1 The Offeror shall demonstrate a record of construction performance and experience on recent and relevant projects using the Past Performance Summary Sheet, Attachment 2 and the Past Performance Questionnaire (PPQ), Attachment 3 at the end of this section. Offerors may also submit CCASS or CPARS evaluations in addition to or instead of a PPQ.

The PPQ is provided for the Offeror to submit to the client (Point of Contact). 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 to ensure timely submittal of completed 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 may complete blocks 1 – 5 of the PPQ and submit it with the proposal which will provide contract and client information for the project.

Offerors may submit an additional page for each project submitted describing how it is similar to the requirements in this solicitation. The first page of the PPQ, CCASS or CPARS evaluation and an additional page, if used, must contain sufficient information for the government to determine the recency and relevancy of the project.

The Government may call and confirm information provided by the Offeror with the points of contact to the extent necessary to verify the information 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), Elizabeth Thorstad. Request may be made via email to Elizabeth.A.Thorstad@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 emailed or 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 shall not incorporate by reference into the 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. The Government will consider any available CCASS or CPARS information on the relevant projects submitted.

The Offeror’s proposal shall include the Past Performance Summary Sheet (Attachment 2) to provide a summary of the PPQs/CCASS/CPARS included. The summary sheet shall include information for all columns.

Offerors may identify state and local government and private contracts that are similar to the Government’s requirements described in 4.1.2.

If the Offeror is a joint venture, the projects do not have to have been performed by the joint venture submitting the offer. The projects could have been performed by either company in the joint venture.

Offerors are advised to submit projects wherein the Offeror, or proposed joint venture members, played a significant role and to clearly define those roles. If any Offeror has multiple functions or divisions, limit the project examples to those performed by the division or unit submitting the offer. Ensure that the PPQs or CCASS or CPARS evaluations submitted for this Factor clearly describe the relevant characteristics of the project.

4.1.2 Offeror shall submit a minimum of three (3), but no more than five (5), recent, relevant projects that have a minimum value of no less than $2 million each. Where a project was awarded as a task order or delivery order under an IDIQ type contract, Offerors are cautioned to submit information specific to the task or delivery order considered relevant to the requirements of this RFP, rather than the umbrella contract. All 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. Projects with similar size, scope, and complexity of the following may be considered relevant projects:

General Construction or Design-Build Construction of new or renovated/repaired facilities involving architectural exteriors/interiors, electrical, mechanical, plumbing, fire suppression, communication, renewable energy, roofing, anti-terrorism and force protection, and/or structural systems, site work, airfield pavements, transportation systems (i.e. roads, highways, bridges, and/or parking), and/or storm water management systems.

No less than three of the five projects SHALL be Design-Build construction.

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 five (5) PPQs (Attachment 3) in accordance with 4.1.2. For purposes of this Request for Proposal, if the Offeror is submitting as a Joint Venture (JV), no more than five (5) total project examples may be submitted for the JV and its members. If an Offeror submits more than five (5) total project examples, only the first five (5) will be evaluated. Offerors shall submit only projects wherein the Offeror or proposed joint venture members were the prime contractors. 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.

4.1.4 Other Sources. In addition to the above, the Government may review any other sources other than those provided by the Offeror for evaluating past performance and experience. These other sources may include but are not limited to, past performance and experience information retrieved through the Past Performance Information Retrieval System (PPIRS), including Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS), using all CAGE/DUNS numbers identified in the proposal on the Proposal Data Sheet, inquiries of owner representative(s), Federal Awardee Performance and Integrity Information System (FAPIIS), Electronic Subcontract Reporting System (eSRS), and any other known sources not provided by the Offeror. If a CPARS evaluation exists for a submitted project, it will be considered.

4.1.5 While the Government may elect to consider data from other sources, the offeror must provide detailed, current, accurate and complete past performance information for evaluation by the Government.

4.1.6 The experience and/or past performance of individuals will NOT be considered under this factor.

4.2 EVALUATION CRITERIA.

4.2.1 Past Performance Evaluation: The past performance and experience evaluation results in an assessment of the Government’s confidence in the ability of the Offeror to meet the solicitation requirements.
