*NOTE: This project is subject to availability of funds. No award will be made under this solicitation until funds are available.

2. Submittal of Offers.

2.1 Offerors submitting proposals for this project should limit submissions to data essential for evaluation of proposals so that a minimum of time and monies will have been expended in preparing information required herein. However, in order to be effectively and equitably evaluated, the proposals must include information sufficiently detailed to clearly describe the offeror's capability for successfully completing the solicited project. For Phase II, requirements stated in this Request for Proposal (RFP) are minimums. Innovative, creative, or cost-saving proposals that meet or exceed the requirements are encouraged and will be rated accordingly. Proposals should follow in the order of sequence set forth in the RFP. Information provided out of sequence may not be evaluated and may result in the offeror's disqualification from award.

2.2 Offerors shall submit their proposals electronically in accordance with the Proposal Submission Instructions in Section 00 21 00 of the solicitation. Please follow the instructions precisely as proposals must complete the upload no later than the time and date specified in Block 13 of Standard Form 1442.

3. Proposal Evaluation Process.

3.1 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 proposals will be conducted in strict confidence.

Technical (Volume I) proposals will be reviewed and rated without knowledge of the price offered.

The number and identities of offerors are not revealed to anyone not involved in the evaluation and award process or to other offerors. Proposals will be evaluated based on the factors described herein, and the basis of award is a Best Value Trade-Off, as stated above.

3.2 The evaluation process for Phase II essentially consists of four (4) parts: proposal compliance review and responsibility review, technical evaluation, price evaluation, and price/technical trade-off analysis.

3.2.1 Proposal Compliance / Responsibility Review: This is an initial review to ensure that both a technical and price proposal were received.

3.2.2 Technical Evaluation: The SSEB will evaluate and rate the Phase II Volume I proposals against the RFP requirements. Factors I through III (Design Narrative, Management Plan, and Schedule Narrative) will be rated using Table 4 found in Section 4.6.

3.2.3 Price Evaluation: The SSEB, Contracting Officer, and SSA will evaluate price proposals independent of the technical evaluation. The SSEB will not have access to price information until completion of the technical evaluation.

3.2.4 Price/Technical Trade-off Analysis: After all the above evaluations are complete, the Contracting

Officer and SSA will compare the relative advantages and disadvantages of technical proposals and compare prices. The Source Selection Authority (SSA) will then consider all factors to select the proposal offering the best value to the Government.

4. Proposal Information and Related Evaluation Factors.

4.1 Phase II proposals will be evaluated in accordance with the factors below, listed in relative order of importance. All evaluation factors, other than price, when combined are considered approximately equal to 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 price and technical standpoint. 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. The Government also reserves the right to conduct Clarifications or Communications with offerors as described in FAR 15.306(a) and (b).

4.2 Volume I – Factor I: Design Narrative

4.3 Volume I – Factor II: Management Plan

4.4 Volume I – Factor III: Schedule Narrative

* NOTE: All three (3) Factors are considered equally important to each other.

4.5 Volume II – Price and Pro Forma Information

Tab A – Standard Form 1442 and Price Breakout Schedule Not Rated

4.6 Ratings

Evaluators will apply the rating for the definition that most closely matches the evaluation.

5.2 Evaluation Criteria:

5.2.1 The Design Narrative will be evaluated based on the offeror’s understanding of the requirements of the USACE design/build process. The design narrative shall provide a clear rationale of the DOR's internal design processes, the design submittal process and submittal requirements, Dr. Checks and comment resolution, and design completion. Proposals should demonstrate a comprehensive understanding for the design of this specific project’s requirements. The design narrative will be evaluated for completeness by including the building features of the RFP as outlined in Section 01 02 00.00 48 Statement of Work.

6. Volume I – Factor II: Management Plan

6.1 Submission Requirements:

6.1.1 Provide a management plan narrative for the project that describes how your labor, resources, designers, subcontractors, and material suppliers will be managed, supervised, coordinated, and used to ensure successful completion of the project. Additionally, the Management Plan shall include the following information:

a) A preliminary commissioning plan to include an outline of systems to be commissioned, commissioning timeline, and documents to be provided. Identify the (1.) Commissioning Firm, (2.)

Lead Commissioning Specialist (CxC), and (3.) Building Envelope Commissioning Specialist (CxB) and their qualifications, including at least the following: years of experience in commissioning, certifications/licenses, types of projects commissioned, and information with at least one (1) project of complexity similar to the solicitation project. Offerors shall breakout the minimum qualifications separately for each, rather than as an aggregate. Offerors are advised that any subcontractor submitted for review shall be utilized on the contract for the work required by the evaluation. Evaluation and acceptance of a subcontractor does not relieve any of the conditions required by the plans and specification. If a subcontractor is unable to perform the work or a replacement is needed it shall be submitted to the Contracting Officer for their approval prior to any work being completed.

b) Identification of the three (3) most significant risks and demonstrate your mitigation strategy to address those risks.

* NOTE: There is a page limit of seven (7) 8.5” x 11” pages, using a minimum font size of 11 and a minimum margin of one-half inch on all sides for this factor. Any information that exceeds the page limit will not be evaluated. Certificates and qualifications do NOT count towards the total page limit.

6.2 Evaluation Criteria:

6.2.1 Management Plan narratives will be evaluated based on the level of understanding of the work and the involvement the contractor will have in the management, oversight, control, and coordination of the work performed during construction of the project. The Management Plan will be evaluated for how well it demonstrates how the offeror plans to manage, supervise, and coordinate the labor, resources, designers, subcontractors, and material suppliers for this specific project. The Management Plan will also be evaluated on the offerors address of the Commissioning Plan submission criteria as identified in

6.1.1 a) and through the identification and mitigation of the three (3) most critical risks for this solicitation, as identified in 6.1.1 b). Narratives that demonstrate a clear understanding of the Army Reserve project Design requirements and USACE construction execution processes and provide a thorough approach for successfully managing the solicited project may be rated more favorably by the

SSEB.

7. Volume I – Factor III: Schedule Narrative

7.1 Submission Requirements:

Based on the project budget and scope, provide a schedule narrative describing the construction sequence / process for successful completion of each phase of the project (Design, Construction, Commissioning and Close-Out) within the duration shown in FAR 52.211-10. Offerors may propose a shorter duration for completion, but Government review times shall not be shortened. The Schedule Narrative shall address at a minimum the major construction milestones and tasks indicated below:

a) Design Phase/ Packages

b) Pre-Construction Submittals and Review

c) Long Lead Items

d) Commissioning with critical submittals

e) Red Zone Meeting

f) As-Builts

g) Closeout

* NOTE: There is a page limit of five (5) 8.5” x 11” pages, using a minimum font size of 11 and a minimum margin of one-half inch on all sides for narrative portion of this factor. Any information that exceeds the page limit will not be evaluated.

7.2 Evaluation Criteria:

The narrative will be evaluated based on the understanding of events identified in paragraph 7.1 above and the offeror’s capability to complete the schedule within the contract duration. Narratives that demonstrate a clear understanding of the schedule impacts of the major milestones and tasks and provide a thorough approach for successfully completing the contract within the contract duration may be rated more favorably by the SSEB. Schedules offering duration less than that shown in 52.211-10 may receive a higher rating if the proposed schedule is shown to be realistic and achievable while still addressing the major milestones and tasks required without reducing Government Review time.

* NOTE: The SSEB will evaluate the offeror’s schedule narrative using calendar days, not dates. The Government reserves the right to accept or decline a proposed shorter duration as part of the contract award. Should the Government accept the proposed shorter duration, the contract completion stated in 52.211-10 will be replaced with the offeror’s proposed completion duration.
