The offeror is responsible for including sufficient details in its proposal to permit a complete and accurate evaluation. Accordingly, the offeror shall be clear and concise in its proposal. The Government will not make assumptions concerning the offeror’s intent.

2. GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS.

In accordance with FAR Clause 52.215-1, Instructions to Offerors – Competitive Acquisitions, the Government reserves the right to make award without discussions. Therefore, offerors should submit their best past performance questionnaires and price terms in their initial offer and not automatically assume that they will have an opportunity to participate in discussions or to submit a revised offer. The Government may make award of a conforming proposal without discussions, if deemed to be within the best interests of the Government.

In accordance with 15.306(c) (1) and FAR Clause 52.215-1(f) (4), Instructions to Offerors – Competitive Acquisitions, the Government reserves the right to conduct discussions if the Contracting Officer later determines them to be necessary. If the Contracting Officer determines that the number of proposals that would otherwise be in the competitive range exceeds the number at which an efficient competition can be conducted, the Contracting Officer may limit the number of proposals in the competitive range to the greatest number that will permit an efficient competition among the most highly rated proposals.

2.1 Contractor Team Arrangements. The Government will recognize the integrity and validity of contractor teaming arrangements, provided the arrangements are identified and company relationships are fully disclosed in the offer. As further described in paragraph 2.3, below, the Government will only evaluate the information submitted by the legal entity with whom the Government would enter into a contract. This is the legal entity represented in Tab E, as registered in System for Award Management (SAM) and identified by its specifically assigned CAGE Code.

2.2 If applicable, the offeror shall submit evidence from the offeror’s SBA Servicing Agency that the offeror has notified and discussed the proposed joint venture for this project with the appropriate SBA personnel. For 8(a) set- aside procurements, all prospective Joint Ventures must comply with Title 13 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Part 124.513. For HUBZone set- aside procurements and awards to HUBZone SBCs through full and open competition after a price evaluation preference in favor of qualified HUBZone SBCs, a Joint Venture must comply with

13 CFR 126.616.

2.3 The Government will only evaluate the information submitted by the legal entity with whom the Government would enter into a contract. This is the legal entity represented in Tab E, as registered in System for Award Management (SAM) and identified by its specifically assigned CAGE Code. However, IAW CFR 125.8(e), the Government will also evaluate past experience and past performance submitted by the individual firms that make up a joint venture.

Proposals are due as specified on the solicitation document (as amended if applicable). The time & date of proposal receipt will be the upload completion / delivery time & date recorded by the email server. Do not assume that electronic communication is instantaneous. Offerors should time their upload effort with prudence by not waiting until the last few minutes—this will allow for unexpected delays in the transmittal process. If an electronic submission is uploaded minutes before the deadline but the upload doesn’t complete until after the deadline, the submission will be considered late. Offerors are encouraged to keep a copy of the upload confirmation for their records.

3.5 The offeror is responsible for including sufficient details in its proposal to permit a complete and accurate evaluation. Accordingly, the offeror shall be clear and concise in its proposal. The Government will not make assumptions concerning the offeror’s intent.

3.6 Failure to submit all the data required by the RFP, and these instructions may be cause for determining a proposal incomplete and, therefore, not considered for award.

3.7 Do not include exceptions to the terms and conditions of the solicitation in either the technical or price proposal. Should the offer include any standard company terms and conditions that conflict with the terms and conditions of the solicitation, the offer may be determined “unacceptable” and thus ineligible for award.

USACE – Wilmington District Attention: John Hill 69 Darlington Ave Wilmington NC 28403

For the purposes of this Request for Proposal, please note that in accordance with

(IAW) FAR 28.001:

“Bond means a written instrument executed by a bidder or contractor (the “principal”), and a second party (the “surety” or “sureties”) (except as provided in 28.204), to assure fulfillment of the principal’s obligations to a third party (the “obligee” or “Government”), identified in the bond. If the principal’s obligations are not met, the bond assures payment, to the extent stipulated, of any loss sustained by the obligee.”

Bonds shall therefore be executed in the name of the legal entity, whether a joint venture, partnership or the Prime Contractor of an informal teaming arrangement, with whom the government would enter into a contract for a successful offeror. The entity named on the bond must be able to acquire bonding capacity on its own merits, and not as the result of indemnification from a subcontractor or third party.

4.1.2 Completed Past Performance Questionnaires should be submitted with your proposal as required by RFP Section 4.1.1. Offerors shall not incorporate by reference into their proposal PPQs previously submitted for other RFPs. This does not preclude the Government from utilizing previously submitted PPQ information in the past performance evaluation. While the Government may elect to consider data from other sources, the burden of providing detailed, current, accurate and complete past performance information rests with the Offeror.

Other Sources. The Government may contact sources other than those provided by the offeror for information with respect to past performance. These other sources may include but are not limited to: Past Contractor Past Performance Reporting System (CPARS), Federal Awardee Performance Integrity Information System (FAPIIS), other Government sources, and interviews with organizations or individuals familiar with the offeror’s performance.

4.1.3 Projects must be deemed relevant to be considered for this procurement. Relevant projects are those projects which meet all of the minimum criteria specified in paragraph

4.1.3.1. The Government will not consider multiple projects such as individual task orders combined to meet the criteria referenced in 4.1.3.1 below. Projects which do not meet all of the minimum criteria specified shall be deemed not relevant and shall not be considered further.

4.1.3.1 The minimum requirement for a project of similar size, scope, or complexity is defined as having all of the following criteria:

o Fifty-five thousand 55,000 square feet (SF) or more aggregate interior space.

o Total value of project equal to or greater than $25,000,000.00 o At least one (1) project must include the construction of a SCIF (per ICD 705)

4.1.5 Offerors shall utilize NAVFAC/USACE Past Performance Questionnaire (PPQ) in Attachment 3. This form is MANDATORY and SHALL be used to submit project information.

For all submitted projects, the description of the project shall clearly describe the scope of work performed and the relevancy to the project requirements of this RFP. Except as specifically requested, the Government will not consider information submitted in addition to this form.

Individual blocks on this form may be expanded; however, total length for each project data sheet shall not exceed Five (5) pages.

4.1.6 If the offeror is a Joint Venture (J-V), relevant project performance should be submitted for projects completed by the Joint Venture entity, or the individual firms that make up the joint venture. Offerors that are part of the DoD Mentor Protégé program may only submit two

(2) recent and relevant project completed by the Mentor. Offerors are still limited to a total of five (5) projects. Performance of proposed subcontractors to be utilized on this project will not be considered.

4.2 EVALUATION CRITERIA:

4.2.1 The Government will evaluate the offeror's past performance using the sources available to it including but not limited to: the example projects identified by the offeror and submitted on the NAVFAC/USACE PPQs and any additional information received from references, CPARS or other sources. Offerors may be provided an opportunity to address any negative past performance information about which the offeror has not previously had an opportunity to respond if such information is determined to present an impact on the rating to be assessed.

4.2.2 The Government will consider past performance of the prime construction contractor. If a firm has multiple functions or divisions, the Government will only evaluate the past performance of the unit or division submitting the offer. Where the Government views an offeror’s role, or that of its team members, if any, as not significant or as not clearly defined, the Government reserves the right to view this lack of involvement, or clarity, as a risk which may impact an offeror’s rating for this factor despite the quality of recent, relevant past performance information

4.2.3 The Government will consider recent, relevant projects that are successfully completed, or substantially completed (fully designed and at least 50% construction progress completed) within six (6) years preceding the date of the solicitation. To be deemed relevant, projects must comply with minimum criteria in paragraph 4.1.3.1. The Government will consider the recency and relevance of the information, source of the information, context of the data, and general trends in contractor performance. The Government places higher value on projects for which successful performance can be validated by means other than the offeror’s self-assessment such as through independent telephone interviews with points of contact identified in the proposal, CPARS or other agency performance databases, offeror furnished references or personal knowledge. The Government places a higher value on projects which provided particularly difficult or unique challenges and the innovative methods the offeror used to resolve problems successfully.

4.3 The Government will evaluate recent, relevant past performance (as set forth in paragraph 6.2) based on the elements listed below to assign a confidence rating in accordance with paragraph 6.3:

4.3.1 Quality of Construction. The Government will evaluate all information available with respect to the quality of the actual construction undertaken and the standards of workmanship exhibited by the offeror.
