1.2 BID FORM NOTES

a. Bidders shall bid on all items including optional items. Failure to bid on all items will result in a non-responsive bid.

b. Bidders shall use the Item No. 0002 unit price to compute Item Nos.

0002 and 0003 total prices.

c. Any bid may be rejected if the Contracting Officer or his/her authorized representative determines in writing that it is unreasonable as to price. Unreasonableness of price includes not only the total price of the bid, but the prices for individual line items as well. Any bid may be rejected if the prices for any line items or subline items are materially unbalanced (see FAR 14.404-2, "Rejection of Individual Bids").

d. The Notice to Proceed (NTP): The successful bidder is advised that performance and payment bonds shall be submitted in accordance with the time frame in block 12B of SF 1442 after Notice of Award. The NTP will be issued after verification of acceptable performance and payment bonds. Within 24 hours after issuance of NTP, the Contractor shall initiate a meeting to discuss the submittal process with the Administrative Contracting Officer or his authorized representative.

Physical work cannot start until the Quality Control System is set-up, the Accident Prevention Program and other required submittals have been submitted and approved, and all preliminary meetings called for under the contract have been conducted.

e. RAPID VENDOR PAYMENT: See the following web based instructions for the submission of invoices:

http://www.mvn.usace.army.mil/BusinessWithUs/Contracting/RapidVendorPayment.aspx.

f. "Job" is synonymous with the previously used term "lump sum".

1.3 BIDDING

a. The bidder must select only one bid lot, determined by the class of dredge intended to be used. Bids which are submitted on an inappropriate bid lot will be declared non-responsive.

b. Bidders shall furnish unit prices for all items listed on the schedule of bid items that require unit prices. If the bidder fails to insert a unit price in the appropriate blank for required items but does furnish an extended total or an estimated amount for such items, the Government will deem the unit price to be the quotient obtained by dividing the extended estimated amount for that line item by the quantity. IF THE BIDDER OMITS BOTH THE UNIT PRICE AND THE EXTENDED

ESTIMATED AMOUNT FOR ANY REQUIRED ITEM, THE BID WILL BE DECLARED

NON-RESPONSIVE.

1.4 EVALUATION OF BIDS

a. To provide fair competition between dredges of different production rate and capacity, the required dredging quantities and any optional dredging quantities are based on an estimated quantity of shoal material, and on the tested production rate of each dredge class.

b. Award will be made to that responsible bidder presenting the lowest-priced responsive bid in response to this solicitation, SECTION 00010 Page 10 regardless of the bid lot used.

c. The hourly quantity shown on the bid lots for Bid Items designated as "Dredging" are 100% pay time hours. The actual calendar duration of the contract may vary as a result of fractional pay time. Refer to Section 35 20 23.23, paragraph entitled "Dredging and Option Dredging Items" for additional information.

1.5 CONDITIONS OF CONTRACT AWARD

a. Award will be made as a whole to one bidder. The dredge and attendant plant offered in the bidding schedule shall be complete with full operating personnel and in operating status for the contract period. EM 385-1-1, Chapter 19, "Floating Plant and Marine Activities" shall be complied with at all times. NOTE: All work under these specifications shall be performed in accordance with the provisions of EM 385-1-1 "Safety and Occupational Health Requirements", latest edition.

The time required for completion of the contract shall be established as the number of calendar days listed in column entitled "Approximate Number of Contract Days for Item 0002" for the applicable bid lot. In the event Option Item 0003 is fully exercised under the terms of the

SECTION 00010 Page 11 contract, the time required for completion of the contract shall be extended by the number of calendar days listed in column entitled "Approximate Number of Contract Days for Option Item 0003" for the applicable bid lot. In the event Option Item 0003 is partially exercised, the contract completion date shall be extended using the following formula:

[(partial option hours exercised)/(option hours listed in bid schedule for applicable bid lot) ] x (calendar days listed in column "Approximate Number of Contract Days for Option Item 0003" for the applicable bid lot)

d. The bidder shall provide for assignment of the dredge and all attendant plant, complete and in full operating condition in all respects, and to commence dredging no later than 240 hours after issuance of the Notice to Proceed.

1.6 BIDDER QUALIFICATIONS

a. Before the Government will award a contract based on this solicitation, the apparent low bidder shall establish that it is responsible and entitled to award of the contract, by certifying that its dredge meets the appropriate production rate, as listed in the table in Section 35 20 23.23, paragraph entitled "Dredge Plant". The dredge must perform at or above the listed production rate at least 85% of the time, as established by other contracts completed within three years prior to the bid opening date of this solicitation. Failure to establish an adequate capability will result in a finding of non-responsibility.

b. A bidder may be rejected as non-responsible if it cannot show the necessary capital, experience, or equipment needed to perform the work described under this solicitation (see "Responsible Prospective Contractors" FAR Subpart 9.1). The bidder must also show that the dredge and attendant plant is not already obligated for the performance of other work that would delay commencement, performance, and completion of the solicited work; and must show that delivery of the dredge and attendant plant to the site of work can be made within the time allowed in the specifications.

c. Bidders must register in the System for Award Management (SAM) database in accordance with FAR 52.204-7 - OCT 2018.

1.7 PRE-AWARD INSPECTION OF PLANT

a. The apparent low bidder shall make the dredge and attendant plant available for inspection, to determine compliance with these specifications, as soon as practicable after bids are opened, and prior to contract award. If deficiencies are found during the inspection, the bidder will be notified in writing, which may be transmitted by email or facsimile. Upon receipt of such notice, the bidder shall correct all deficiencies at least two calendar days in advance of the projected contract award date.

b. Two calendar days before the projected award date, or upon notification by the bidder that the deficiencies have been corrected, a Government representative will re-inspect the dredge and attendant plant. If at that time the dredge and attendant plant do not meet the requirements of these specifications, the bidder will be rejected as

SECTION 00010 Page 12 non-responsible.

c. The Government may choose to waive the pre-award inspection if the projected contract award date is less than five calendar days after the bid opening date. Waiver of the pre-award inspection does not relieve the bidder from the requirement to provide a dredge and attendant plant in full compliance with the specifications.

1.8 OPTION ITEMS

a. The Government may require the delivery of, in whole or part, any Option Items. The Government may exercise an Option Item by written notice to the Contractor at any time after Notice to Proceed and up to three calendar days prior to the estimated completion date of the base line item or any previously exercised option. If the Government activates the Option Item, the activation will occur while the Contractor's equipment is in the work vicinity as described in the applicable Dredging Region Section(s). If "Option Dredging" Item work is exercised, it shall be performed as a continuance of "Dredging" Item work, which shall be activated first.

b. No additional mobilization/demobilization will be paid to the Contractor for Option Item work performed within the work region. The Contractor shall commence performance of optional work no more than 3 calendar days after the time the Contractor receives the Government's Notice to Proceed with the optional work.
