6. TECHNICAL PROPOSAL SUBMISSION REQUIREMENTS

Proposals will be evaluated in accordance with the factors listed below. Offerors are reminded to include their best technical and capability information in their initial offer and not assume that they will have an opportunity to participate in discussions or be asked to submit a revised proposal.

a) Where the word “similar” appears it is understood to mean equivalent in type, size, scope, schedule, and complexity as these project requirements.

00 22 00 - 6 Amendment 0001

b) Where the word “recent” appears it is understood to mean projects that have been 100% completed (final construction documents completed) within five (5) years of the RFP issue date. A “recent” construction type project is defined as a construction project for which design is 100% complete and the construction is a 100% complete (measured by performance period days) as of the RFP issue date or a construction type project that has been completed and turned over to the owner within five (5) years of the RFP issue date.

c). Where the word “relevant” appears it is understood to mean that project experience is similar and logically connected to the context of this solicitation in terms of scope (similar type of work, size, effort, complexities, and dollar value, etc) as the work described in this solicitation. Regarding “relevant” prime construction contractor work, the Government will consider the type of work features self-performed, on-site by the Prime Contractor’s own organization in addition to construction management effort. “Relevant” past performance information is one indicator of an Offeror’s ability to perform the contract successfully

FACTOR 1 – EXPERIENCE (Volume 2, Tab #1)

Submission requirements:

For this factor, the offeror shall submit two (2) project summaries of construction projects which best illustrate his/her experience on projects, preferably of a similar type as this project. Projects considered similar include: open ocean maintenance dredging projects.

Each project summary should consist of no more than a two (2) page narrative of the project that address the following:

Safely operating a piece of dredging equipment in an open ocean (beyond the line of demarcation), high wave energy environment (see para 1.14 of section 01 11 00), dredging an approximate average of 15,000 cubic yards per day. Additional information shall include the design and dredge depth of the project and final pay quantity for the project.

Dredging and placing material on adjacent downcoast beaches including the length and width of the beach created and distance of the pump to the discharge site.

Describe, in detail, the type of equipment used to perform the work including the dredge plant, support vessels, and earthmoving equipment. Specific information shall be included such as the name, size and freeboard of the dredge, along with the diameter of the discharge line.

00 22 00 - 7 Amendment 0001

No more than two (2) projects may be submitted. If more than two (2) construction projects are submitted from the offeror, only the first two (2) submitted for the firm will be evaluated, starting from the most recent and working backwards in time. Each project cited should have a construction dollar value ranging from $3,000,000 .00- $15,000,000.00, with one (1) project exceeding $5,000,000.00 and completed within five (5) years of the RFP issue date. An IDIQ contract may be submitted only if a single task order meets the requirements of this factor. Only projects that were constructed within the United States will be considered meeting the requirements of this section. Each project example shall demonstrate relevant experience to the proposed acquisition, with “relevant experience” being defined as experience on projects that are similar to this project. Summaries may also include non-government private sector projects of similar type. Each summary shall include the following: a description of the project; construction contract award amount;

final construction cost; location; date when the project was started; original contract finish date and actual finish date. All summaries shall contain the name, address, telephone and email address of a representative of the owner (as well as one alternate individual not affiliated with your firm) familiar with your firm’s experience on the project that can verify the experience cited. (Attachment No. 1 is provided for your use).

RATING DEFINITION NOTE

(E) Exceptional Performance meets contractual requirements and exceeds many of the Government/Owner’s benefit. The Contractual performance of the element or sub-element being assessed was accomplished with few minor problems for which corrective actions taken by the contractor was highly effective

SECTION 00 22 16

SUPPLEMENTARY INSTRUCTIONS TO PROPOSERS

PROPOSAL EVALUATION AND CONTRACT AWARD

1. GENERAL

a. A Source Selection Evaluation Board (SSEB) comprised of representatives of the Corps of Engineers, User/Customer, and other required personnel, will evaluate the proposals. Offerors are advised that the technical evaluation and rating of the proposals will be conducted in strict accordance in with Sections 00 22 00 and 00 22 16 of the solicitation. In addition, technical proposals are first reviewed and rated by the SSEB without knowledge of the price offered. The number and identities of offerors are not revealed to anyone who is not involved in the evaluation and award process or to other offerors. Proposals will be evaluated on the factors/sub-factors described herein. The lowest price technically acceptable source selection process will be used for this acquisition. This process allows the Government to select a technically acceptable proposal with the lowest evaluated price. Reference FAR 15.101.2.

b. Offerors are reminded to include their best technical and price terms in their initial offer and not to automatically assume that they will have an opportunity to participate in discussions or be asked to submit a revised offer.

2. ELIGIBILITY FOR CONTRACT AWARD

In accordance with FAR 1.602-1(b), no contract shall be entered into unless the Contracting Officer ensures that all requirements of law, executive orders, regulations, and other applicable procedures, including clearances and approvals, have been met. This includes the requirement of FAR 9.103 that no award shall be made unless the Contracting Officer makes an affirmative determination of responsibility. To be determined responsible, a prospective contractor must meet the general standards in FAR 9.104-1 and any special standards set forth in the solicitation in accordance with FAR 9.104- 2.

3. EVALUATION PROCESS

The evaluation process essentially consists of three parts: proposal compliance review and responsibility determination, technical/ evaluation, and price evaluation.

a. Proposal Compliance Review: This is an initial review by Contracting Division on the basis of the Request for Proposals (RFP) requirements. This review may eliminate those proposals which fail to provide all required information and documents in the format and detail specified. This review is to ensure that all required forms are complete.

b. Technical Evaluation: The SSEB will evaluate and rate those proposals passing the first review, above. Proposals will be evaluated against the RFP requirements. Factors will be rated on an “acceptable or unacceptable” basis.

c. Price Evaluation: The SSEB, using price advisors as necessary, will evaluate the price proposals received in response to the solicitation. Prices will be evaluated for unbalancing of line items, fair and reasonableness and realism. Price will not be evaluated with a rating system, but will be evaluated through the use of cost/price analysis. To determine price reasonableness and affordability, the SSEB will compare the individual proposed price to the Government Estimate.

Prices will not be revealed to any SSEB members until completion of the technical evaluations, including consensus.

4. EVALUATION CRITERIA AND RATING SCHEMES FOR VOLUME 2

General Evaluation Criteria. The government will evaluate and rate Volume 2, non -cost/ price technical information, using the rating schemes described below:

Oceanside Harbor Maintenance Dredging W912PL-17-R-0023

00 22 16 - 2 Amendment

Table A-1. Technical Acceptable /Unacceptable Ratings, applicable to Factors 1 and Rating Description Acceptable Proposal clearly meets the minimum requirement of the solicitation.

Unacceptable and Proposal does not clearly meet the minimum requirements of the solicitation.

*NOTE: In case of an offeror without a record of relevant past performance or for whom information on past performance is not available or so spare that no meaningful past performance rating can be reasonably assigned; the offeror may not be evaluated favorably or unfavorably on past performance. Therefore, the offeror shall be determined to have unknown past performance. In the context of acceptability/unacceptability, “unknown” shall be considered “Acceptable.”

5. PROPOSAL EVALUATION

ACCEPTABILITY STANDARDS: In order to be considered technically acceptable, proposals must be submitted in writing and must meet the following minimum requirements:

FACTOR 1 – EXPERIENCE (VOLUME 2, TAB #1)

Evaluation Criteria:

The Source Selection Evaluation Board (SSEB) will evaluate both the extent and quality of recent experience for compliance with the minimum requirements identified in the offeror’s non-cost/price proposal. To receive an “acceptable” rating, the offeror shall submit 2 projects that have been completed or substantially complete within the last five (5) years of the RFP issue date, which are similar to this project in size and complexity. Projects considered similar include:

maintenance dredging projects that have occurred in open ocean, high wave energy environments. Each project summary should consist of a one or two page narrative of the project that address the following:

Safely operating a piece of dredging equipment in an open ocean (beyond the line of demarcation), high wave energy environment (see para 1.14 of section 01 11 00), dredging an approximate average of 15,000 cubic yards per day.

Additional information shall include the design and dredge depth of the project and final pay quantity for the project.

Dredging and placing material on adjacent downcoast beaches including the length and width of the beach created and distance of the pump to the discharge site.

Describe, in detail, the type of equipment used to perform the work including the dredge plant, support vessels, and earthmoving equipment. Specific information shall be included such as the name, size and freeboard of the dredge, along with the diameter of the discharge line.

Each project cited should have a construction dollar value ranging from $3,000,000 .00- $15,000,000.00, with one (1) project exceeding $5,000,000.00 and completed within five (5) years of the RFP issue date. Prime contractor/subcontractor experience given that does not meet these requirements will be given a rating of “unacceptable” for this factor.

Table A-2. Past Performance Evaluation Ratings, applicable to Factor 3 Rating Description Acceptable Based on the offerors’s past performance record, the

Government has a reasonable expectation that the offeror will successfully perform the required effort, or the offeror’s past performance is unknown. (See note below)*

Unacceptable Based on the offeror’s past performance record, the Government has no reasonable expectation that the offeror will be able to successfully perform the required effort

00 22 16 - 3 Amendment

FACTOR 2 – SCHEDULE (VOLUME 2, TAB #2)

Evaluation Criteria:

In order to get an “Acceptable” rating on Factor 2, the offeror shall provide a schedule that shows the entirety of the work being completed, including mobilization and demobilization, within the 55 day period of performance and not working past the Friday before Memorial Day (paragraph 1.19, section 01 11 00). All marine plants proposed to be used for the RFP project must comply with paragraph 3.13, section 35 20 23 of the technical specification.

If the schedule shows the work not being completed within the 55 day period of performance, work on the beach past the Friday before Memorial Day or proposing to use marine plants that do not comply with paragraph 3.13, section 35 20 23 of the technical specification, this factor will be rated “Unacceptable”.

FACTOR 3 – PAST PERFORMANCE (VOLUME 2, TAB #3)

Evaluation Criteria:

The SSEB will assess how well the offeror performed on the projects submitted. To receive an “Acceptable” rating for this factor, the offeror’s past performance must be recent and relevant, as defined in Section 00 22 00, Factor 3. In addition, all projects listed must have received a rating of satisfactory or above. Any rating less than “Satisfactory” will result in a rating of “Unacceptable” for this factor.

In case of an offeror without a record of relevant past performance or for whom information on past performance is not available or so spare that no meaningful past performance rating can be reasonably assigned; the offeror may not be evaluated favorably or unfavorably on past performance. Therefore, the offeror shall be determined to have unknown past performance. In the context of acceptability/unacceptability, “unknown” shall be considered “Acceptable.”

6. NEED FOR DISCUSSIONS

6.1 In accordance with solicitation provision FAR 52.215-1, the Source Selection Authority may choose, to make a best value decision and award a contract on the basis of the initial proposals received without conducting discussions.

Therefore, offerors are cautioned to provide their best terms for both price and…
