Lucia A. Carvajal 213.452.3240

FY 12 WATER TREATMENT AND DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM, FORT IRWIN, SAN BERNARDINO COUNTY, CA. Project consists of design and construction services for a new Electro-Dialysis Reversal (EDR) Water Treatment Facility and water supply and distribution system infrastructure upgrades at Fort Irwin, California.

Offerors must submit both a technical proposal and a price proposal. The basis for award is Best Value "Trade-off" IAW FAR 15.101-1. The Government reserves the right to consider award to other than the lowest priced offeror or other than the highest technically rated offeror. The relative weighting of price and technical is as follows: all evaluation factors other than cost or price, when combined, are significantly more important than cost or price.

The Government intends to evaluate proposals and award a contract without discussions with offerors. Therefore, the offeror's initial proposal should contain the offeror's best terms from a cost or price and technical standpoint. The Government reserves the right to conduct discussions if the Contracting Officer later determines them necessary. FAR 52.215-1(f)(4).

The estimated cost range of this procurement is $100,000,000 - $250,000,000.

The Notice of Price Evaluation Preference for HUBZone SBC will apply to this procurement. See Section 00 07 00, Contract Clause No. FAR 52.219-4.
