SECTION 00120

1. GENERAL INFORMATION

1.1. This solicitation is for a Firm Fixed Price Contract. The Government intends to award a single contract to a qualified Small Business Offeror deemed responsible in accordance with the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR), whose offer conforms to all the RFQ's requirements, and is judged to represent the Best Value to the Government in accordance with the evaluation scheme set out in this solicitation. The award will be made based on the lowest price, technically acceptable offer IAW the FAR 15.101-2. Best value is expected to result from selection of the technically acceptable proposal with the lowest evaluated price, with appropriate consideration given to the three (3) evaluation factors: Technical, Price, and Past Performance.

1.2. To arrive at a Best Value decision this acquisition will utilize the FAR Part 15.101-2 lowest price, technically acceptable process (LPTA) process. While the Government and the Source Selection Authority will strive for maximum objectivity, the evaluation process, by its nature, is subjective, and therefore, professional judgment is implicit throughout the entire evaluation process.

1.3. The source selection process will be conducted in accordance with FAR Subpart 13.106-2, Evaluation of Quotations or Offers. Offers will be evaluated using the criteria listed in “Evaluation Factors for Award.”

Noncompliance with the RFQ requirements may raise serious questions regarding an offeror’s technical ability, past performance and/or pricing and may be grounds to eliminate the offer from consideration for contract award.

Failure to include all information requested may adversely affect the evaluation. An offer that merely reiterates or promises to accomplish the requirements of the RFQ may be considered unacceptable. An offer that is orderly and sufficiently documented will be easy for the Government to understand and will enable the Government to perform a thorough and fair evaluation.

1.4. The Contracting Officer will begin the evaluation process by conducting a compliance review for all timely-received offer for determination of basic adequacy prior to providing the offers to the evaluators. Failure to provide a complete offer may result in the offer being removed from further consideration for award. Failure to address any factor Technical, Past Performance and Price or any technical subfactor shall be grounds for elimination from evaluation and consideration for award.

1.5. Reserved

1.6. Although the assessment of Past Performance as a specific evaluation factor is separate and distinct from the Determination of Responsibility required by FAR Part 9, Past Performance information obtained herein will be used during the Government’s responsibility determination. The Government also reserves the right to obtain additional information solely for the purpose of making a responsibility determination from all offerors after receipt of quotes.

Requests for responsibility information do not constitute discussions.

1.7. The Government intends to evaluate quotes and award a contract without discussions with offerors (except clarifications as described in FAR 15.306(a)). The Government reserves the right to conduct discussions if the Contracting Officer, in his/her sole discretion, later determines them to be necessary or appropriate. Further, the Government reserves the right to create or not to create a competitive range.

1.8. ENFORCEABILITY OF THE OFFER: The offer must set forth full, accurate and complete information as required by this solicitation. By submission of the offer, the Offeror agrees that all items proposed (if applicable e.g., key personnel, subcontractors, etc.) will be utilized for the duration of the contract and any substitutions shall require prior Contracting Officer's approval.

2. EVALUATION FACTORS FOR AWARD

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

Factor 1: The Technical factor is further divided into the following subfactors:

a. Experience and Capability

b. Construction Schedule

c. Quality Control

Evaluation of the offeror’s quote shall address the acceptability of the response to each subfactor as it applies to the Plans and Specifications. A detailed explanation of the criteria for the evaluation is set forth in the “Evaluation Approach”, Paragraph C of this section. During evaluations of each offer, the Government will assign each subfactor a rating of “Acceptable” or “Unacceptable” and write a narrative evaluation reflecting the identified findings. An offer which fails to provide information in any of the specified areas may be deemed Unacceptable, and eliminated from the competition and ineligible for further consideration.

Factor 2. Past Performance: Each offeror’s past performance will be reviewed to determine relevancy and acceptability

Factor 3. Cost/Price. The resulting award will be a firm fixed price contract type. Price Reasonableness will be utilized in the evaluation of the Firm-Fixed price effort.

All quotes shall be subject to evaluation by the Source Selection Evaluation Board (SSEB). The overarching evaluation approach for all factors and subfactors is to determine the acceptability of the response. The offer will be evaluated to determine whether each requirement has been addressed in the offer in order to meet the acceptability standards described in the RFQ.

2.2. TECHNICAL OFFER: TECHNICAL EVALUATION FACTOR RATINGS:

2.2.1. Technical Rating: Technical Capability will be evaluated on an Acceptable/Unacceptable basis. An offeror shall obtain an “Acceptable” rating to continue further in the competition. Offerors who are deemed to merit an “Unacceptable” rating in the Technical Capability Factor will be removed from further consideration for award.

Once the minimum requirements are established, the team shall evaluate the offeror's quote against these requirements to determine whether the offer is acceptable or unacceptable, using the ratings and descriptions outlined in Table below. Quotes are evaluated for acceptability, but not ranked using the non-price factors/subfactors. In order to be considered awardable, there must be an "acceptable" rating in every non-price factor/subfactor.

Adjectival Rating Description

Acceptable Proposal meets the requirements of the solicitation.

Unacceptable Proposal does not meet the requirements of the solicitation.

2.2.2. Subfactor 1 - Experience and Capability: Using the information in Technical Offer, and the projects/contracts discussed and listed in the Exhibit As, the Government will evaluate the extent of related experience. To be deemed “Acceptable” the submittal must demonstrate experience and capability to perform a project of this magnitude and complexity.

2.2.2.2. The Government will evaluate the offeror’s understanding of the contract requirements, and determine to what degree their technical and administrative capabilities, proposed organization and management plan are acceptable to meet contract requirements. To be considered acceptable, the Experience and Capability submittal will address the full spectrum of activities involved in the management of a resulting contract in a manner that gives the Government confidence that the offeror understands all of the requirements. An acceptable submittal will include the information necessary to give the Government confidence of the offeror’s ability to successfully perform complete project management of the scope requirements.

2.2.2.3. Offer demonstrates, as a minimum, that the following key personnel: Project Manager, Site Superintendent(s), Quality Control Manager (on site), and Safety Representative have experience in managing projects/contracts of the same/similar dollar magnitude, size, complexity and scope, in the capacity in which they are proposed for this project.

2.2.4. Subfactor 2 - Construction Schedule. To be considered acceptable, the schedule and narrative demonstrates an offeror’s understanding of the requirements. The Construction Schedule is an integrated and networked multi-layered schedule of program/project tasks. It identifies project events, accomplishment, and criteria and the expected dates of each. These dates are based on the calendar dates provided as the starting point and the logical flow of dates provided by calculating the addition of duration of all tasks using typical schedule networking tools. Each major task will be directly traceable to the requirements of the project. The NTP date for the schedule is for the purpose of evaluation only.

2.2.5. Subfactor 3 - Quality Control: The proposal narrative demonstrates that the quality control staff, with lines of authority, is acceptable to meet the contract’s requirements. Proposal demonstrates acceptable quality control processes to give the government confidence of the offeror’s ability to successfully manage the material submittal process, and ensure subcontractor compliance with contract documents. The proposed Quality Control answers should provide a detailed explanation of how quality issues are dealt with on various types of construction projects and as a minimum, meetings, inspections, submittal reviews, correction of non-compliant work and how you intend to ensure non-reoccurrence and reporting of quality problems to Government officials.

2.3. PAST/PRESENT PERFORMANCE EVALUATION

2.3.1. 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 Plans and Specifications.

2.3.2. The past performance evaluation is an assessment of the offeror's probability of meeting the minimum past performance solicitation requirements. This assessment is based on the offeror's record of relevant and recent past performance information that pertain to the products and/or services outlined in the solicitation requirements. The

Past/Present Performance evaluation will consider such things as an offeror's business practices, customer relationship, ability to successfully perform as proposed, and other considerations as described in Past/Present Performance Sub-factors, elements and other considerations. Past/Present Performance includes current/on-going (present) performance complete to 70% percent. Projects currently in progress for the National Guard will also be considered regardless of percentage complete. In assessing performance confidence, the evaluator may: (1) evaluate present and past performance information through the use of questionnaires completed by the offeror's references; (2) use data independently obtained from other Government or commercial sources; from any other sources available to the Government, to include, but not limited to, the Past Performance Information Retrieval System (PPIRS), Federal Awardee Performance and Integrity Information System (FAPIIS), Electronic Subcontract Reporting System (eSRS), or other databases; (3) interviews with Program/Project Managers, Contracting Officers or rely upon personal business experience with the offeror; (4) the information provided in the Offeror’s Past Performance Relevancy Questionnaire; and (5) consider any information the offeror submits which explains any problems encountered on the identified contract and the offeror's corrective actions. The Government reserves the rights to obtain and evaluate past performance information from any source it deems appropriate.

2.3.3. The evaluation may take into account Past/Present Performance information regarding predecessor companies, key personnel who have relevant experience or subcontractors that will perform major or critical aspects of the requirement when such information is relevant to this acquisition. The evaluation will also consider information provided relative to corrective actions taken to resolve problems on past or existing, contracts.

2.3.4. An offeror with no relevant Past/Present Performance may receive a rating based on the evaluation of its predecessor companies, key personnel, and/or subcontractors provided the offeror clearly states in the offer that the information provided about predecessor companies, key personnel, and/or subcontractors is for the purposes of enhancing the offerors past performance submittal. These ratings may not have the same weight as the ratings of the proposing company. The weight that will be afforded for this type of past performance is within the sole discretion of the Government. If such information is not applicable (i.e., the offeror does not have a predecessor company, key personnel or subcontractors with relevant experience), the offeror shall be evaluated as Neutral.

However, the quote of an offeror with no relevant Past/Present Performance history, while rated Neutral in Past Performance, may not represent the most advantageous offer to the Government and thus, may be an unsuccessful offer when compared to the quote of other offerors.

NOTE: In the case of an offeror without a record of relevant past performance or for whom information on past performance is not available or so sparse that no meaningful past performance rating can be reasonably assigned, the offeror may not be evaluated favorably or unfavorably on past performance (see FAR 15.305 (a)(2)(iv)). Therefore, the offeror shall be determined to have unknown (or "neutral") past performance. In the context of acceptability/unacceptability, a neutral rating shall be considered acceptable.

2.3.5. In accordance with FAR 15.306(a)(2), if award will be made without conducting discussions, offerors may be given the opportunity to clarify certain aspects of their qotes, e.g., the relevance of an offeror's past/present performance information and adverse past/present performance information to which the offeror has not previously had an opportunity to respond or to resolve minor clerical errors.

The past performance evaluation is an assessment of the offeror’s probability of meeting the minimum past performance solicitation requirements. This assessment is based on the offeror’s record of relevant and recent past performance information that pertain to the products and/or services outlined in the solicitation requirements.

2.3.6 “Current” means performance occurring within the last five (5) years for the period beginning five years prior to the solicitation release date. Within this period, performance occurring later in the period may have greater significance than work occurring earlier in the period.

2.3.6.1. The Government may also consider similarity of the client type (e.g. federal government) and/or the projects sustainability requirements. The Government will consider United States Green Building Council (USGBC) LEED® certification achievements. The location at which work was performed to the location(s) at which work will be performed will also be considered. Relevancy will affect an offeror’s overall Past Performance rating.

2.3.6.2. In assessing “relevancy” of an offeror’s previous contracts the Government may evaluate an offeror’s past performance for similarity of the construction methods, size, project scope, cost magnitude and complexity of work performed to those required for the proposed effort. The Government may also consider similarity of the client type (e.g. federal government) and/or the projects sustainability requirements. ANG projects will consider United States Green Building Council (USGBC) LEED®. The location at which work was performed may also be considered.

Relevancy weight will affect offeror’s overall Past Performance Confidence rating. The more relevant the project is weighted the greater confidence there will be in the past performance assessment as a predictor of future performance.

2.3.7. The following apply to weighting relevancy considering all the elements listed above;

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.

Offerors who otherwise have satisfactory performance on previous construction projects may be rated “Unknown Confidence” (Neutral) if those projects are not considered relevant to the proposed acquisition and relevancy cannot be obtained through the evaluation of key personnel and/or subcontractors. Projects that are not current will not be considered in the evaluation.

2.3.8. Past Performance Sub-factors. There are six (6) sub-factors as listed below. An overall evaluation for Past Performance will be at the factor level.
