File Naming Convention: To ensure your submission is received and processed appropriately, it is important that interested parties CAREFULLY ensure their electronic files adhere to the following naming convention:
• W912QR26RA016-FIRMNAME-VOLUME I
• W912QR26RA016-FIRMNAME-VOLUME II
Each file name shall begin with the solicitation number followed by the firm’s name and a brief file description. Please see examples above.
File Organization: Although hard copies are not accepted, each file shall be clearly indexed, and logically assembled. Font size shall be 11 or larger. Pages shall be letter sized (larger page sizes (such as 11x17 foldouts, etc.) will be counted as two pages. Proposals shall be in a narrative format, organized and titled so that each section of the proposal follows the order and format of the factors.

Any information, presented in a proposal that the Offeror wants safeguarded from disclosure to other parties must be identified and labeled in accordance with the requirements of Provision “FAR 52.215-1, Instructions to Offerors – Competitive Acquisition,” subparagraph (e), which is found in Section 00 10 00 of the RFP. The
Government will endeavor to honor the restrictions against release requested by Offerors, to the extent permitted under United States law and regulations.
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 proposals
(Volume I) 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.
3.2 The evaluation process essentially consists of four 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 all required forms and certifications are complete, that both a technical and price proposal were received, and that the offeror is financially capable of sustaining performance under the contract and is able to obtain the required level of performance and payment bonds from an acceptable surety.
3.2.2 Technical Evaluation: The SSEB will evaluate and rate the Volume I proposals against the RFP requirements.
Factor I – Past Performance will be rated using Tables 1 and 2 below. The rating will be based on overall confidence in performance, with the final confidence assessment rating based on the extent of recent, relevant past performance and the quality of the offeror’s performance. Factor II – Management Approach will be rated using Table 3 below. Factor III – Small Business Participation Plan will be rated using Table 4 below.
3.2.3 Price Evaluation: The SSEB and Contracting Officer/SSA will evaluate price proposals independent of, and subsequent to, 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/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 Proposals will be evaluated in accordance with the factors below, listed in relative order of importance. All non-price factors, 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.
Volume/Factor Relative Order of Importance
4.2 Volume I – Factor I – Past Performance 1st
4.3 Volume I – Factor II – Management Plan 2nd
4.4 Volume I – Factor III – Small Business Participation Plan 3rd
4.5 Volume II - Price and Pro Forma Information (Separate file from Volume I)
Tab A - Standard Form 1442 and Price Breakout Schedule Not Rated
Tab B - Joint Venture Agreement Not Rated
Tab C – Bid Bond and Proof of Financial Ability Not Rated
Tab D - Pre-Award Information Not Rated

Past Performance Relevancy Ratings
Rating Description
Very Relevant Present/past performance effort involved essentially the same scope and magnitude of effort and complexities this solicitation requires.
Relevant Present/past performance effort involved similar scope and magnitude of effort and complexities this solicitation requires.
Somewhat Relevant Present/past performance effort involved some of the scope and magnitude of effort and complexities this solicitation requires.
Not Relevant Present/past performance effort involved little or none of the scope and magnitude of effort and complexities this solicitation requires.
TABLE 2
Performance Confidence Assessments
Rating Description
Substantial Confidence Based on the offeror’s recent/relevant performance record, the Government has a high expectation that the offeror will successfully perform the required effort.
Satisfactory Confidence Based on the offeror’s recent/relevant performance record, the Government has a reasonable expectation that the offeror will successfully perform the required effort.
Neutral Confidence No recent/relevant performance record is available, or the offeror’s performance record is so sparse that no meaningful confidence assessment rating can be reasonably assigned. The offeror may not be evaluated favorably or unfavorably on the factor of past performance.
Limited Confidence Based on the offeror’s recent/relevant performance record, the Government has a low expectation that the offeror will successfully perform the required effort.
No Confidence Based on the offeror’s recent/relevant performance record, the Government has no expectation that the offeror will be able to successfully perform the required effort.
TABLE 3
Combined Technical/Risk Rating Method
Adjectival Rating Description
Outstanding Proposal demonstrates an exceptional approach and understanding of the requirements and contains multiple strengths and/or at least one significant strength, and risk of unsuccessful performance is low.
Good Proposal indicates a thorough approach and understanding of the requirements and contains at least one strength or significant strength, and risk of unsuccessful performance is low to moderate.
Acceptable Proposal meets requirements and indicates an adequate approach and understanding of the requirements, and risk of unsuccessful performance is no worse than moderate.
Marginal Proposal has not demonstrated an adequate approach and understanding of the requirements, and/or risk of unsuccessful performance is high.
Unacceptable Proposal does not meet requirements of the solicitation and, thus, contains one or more deficiencies and is unawardable, and/or risk of performance is unacceptably high.
TABLE 4
Small Business Participation Plan Ratings
Rating Description
Acceptable Proposal indicates an adequate approach and understanding of small business objectives.
Unacceptable Proposal does not meet small business objectives.
4.7 Definitions
1. Deficiency. A material failure of a proposal to meet a Government requirement or a combination of significant weaknesses in a proposal that increases the risk of unsuccessful contract performance to an unacceptable level. See FAR 15.001.
2. Strength. An aspect of an offeror’s proposal that has merit or exceeds specified performance or capability requirements in a way that will be advantageous to the Government during contract performance.
3. Significant Strength. An aspect of an offeror’s proposal that has appreciable merit or appreciably exceeds specified performance or capability requirements in a way that will be appreciably advantageous to the
Government during contract performance.
4. Weakness. A flaw in the proposal that increases the risk of unsuccessful contract performance. See FAR
15.001.
5. Significant Weakness. A flaw in the proposal that appreciably increases the risk of unsuccessful contract performance. See FAR 15.001.
6. Uncertainty. Any aspect of a non-price factor proposal for which the intent of the offeror is unclear (e.g., more than one way to interpret the offer or inconsistencies in the proposal indicating that there may have been an error, omission, or mistake).
7. Clarifications. Limited exchanges between the Government and offerors that may occur when award without discussions is contemplated. See FAR 15.202(a)(2).
8. Adverse Past Performance. Past performance information that supports a less than satisfactory rating from sources where the information is from other than formal rating systems such as “PPIRS” or “FAPIIS.”
9. Discussion. Exchanges (i.e., negotiations) in a competitive environment that are undertaken with the intent of allowing the offeror to revise its proposal. Discussions take place after establishment of the competitive range.
10. Best Value. The expected outcome of an acquisition that, in the Government’s estimation, provides the greatest overall benefit in response to the requirement. See FAR 2.101.
11. Relevancy. As it pertains to past performance information, is a measure of the extent of similarity between the service/support effort, complexity, dollar value, contract type, and subcontract/teaming or other comparable attributes of past performance examples and the solicitation requirements; and a measure of the likelihood the past performance is an indicator of future performance.
12. Recency. As it pertains to past performance information, is a measure of the elapsed time since the past performance reference occurred. Recency is generally expressed as a time period during which past performance references are considered relevant.
13. Risk. As it pertains to source selection, is the potential for unsuccessful contract performance. The consideration of risk assesses the degree to which an offeror’s proposed approach to achieving the technical factor or subfactor may involve risk of disruption of schedule, degradation of performance, the need for increased Government oversight, and the likelihood of unsuccessful contract performance.
5.0 Volume I – Factor I: Past Performance
5.1 Submission Requirements:

(IDIQ) contract may be submitted only if a single task order could be considered similar to this project. Task orders may not be combined in order for the project to be considered similar.
NOTE: Do not submit more than three (3) projects. Any projects submitted that exceed the three (3) project limit will not be evaluated.
NOTE: Renovation work is not considered similar in size or scope.
5.1.2 Projects considered similar in size would be a minimum of 75,000 SF of new construction, only primary residential and ancillary common areas and conference space square footage are included in the 75,000 SF.
5.1.3 Projects considered similar in scope to this project include new construction of multi-story barracks/dormitory building, hotels or apartment buildings.
5.1.4 The prime contractor must have self-performed at least 15 percent of the direct contract labor (including testing and layout personnel), exclusive of other general conditions or field overhead personnel, material, equipment, or subcontractors to be considered similar.
5.1.5 Additional consideration may be given for projects that contain the following features:
a) Project is built on a military installation for USACE.
b) Project includes deep foundations/drilled shaft piers
c) Project includes demolition work
5.1.6 The following information shall be provided for each project:
a) Project Title, Location, and Contract Number/Unique Identifier;
b) Current percentage of construction complete and the date it was or will be complete
a. For projects that are not yet complete, provide description of work remaining to be completed;
c) Scope of the project, to include purpose/use of facility;
d) Size of the project, differentiate square footage of new construction versus renovation if the project includes both;
e) Portion and percentage of work that was self-performed;
f) Two references, including name, telephone number, and email address.
5.1.7 For this factor, also include any ratings, letters, awards, etc. that support past performance on these projects.
Any of this information that is submitted shall clearly identify to which of the submitted projects it pertains. A sample Past Performance Questionnaire is attached for your convenience. If used, the Past Performance
Questionnaire must be submitted by the offeror with the proposal submission and not sent directly to the agency from the reference. For each project, the offeror may provide information on problems encountered on the identified contracts and the offeror’s respective corrective action.
NOTE: For purposes of evaluating past performance, the Prime Contractor is defined as the contractor identified in Block 14 of the Standard Form 1442. Projects performed by contractors other than the offeror, including, but not limited to, teaming partners, subcontractors, sister or parent companies, and affiliates will not be evaluated for past performance, unless those other contractors are part of a joint venture offeror as demonstrated by a signed joint venture agreement. If more than one contractor is listed in Block 14, then a signed joint venture must be submitted with the proposal and the joint venture shall be registered as such in the
System for Award Management (SAM). However, each party of the Joint Venture (JV) must submit their own
Unique Entity Identifier Number (formerly known as DUNS) with the JV proposal. If the offeror represents the combining of two or more companies as a JV for the purpose of this RFP, each company in the JV may submit project examples, but the total submitted by the JV will not exceed three (3).
Relevant past performance information provided for affiliates of the offeror will be considered. Affiliates (as defined by FAR 2.101) means associated business concerns or individuals if, directly or indirectly either one controls or can control the other; or third-party controls or can control both. Affiliation will be determined in accordance with 13 CFR 121.103. In determining whether affiliation exists, the Government will consider the totality of the circumstances and may find affiliation even though no single factor is sufficient to constitute affiliation. If an offeror is submitting the past performance of an affiliate, the offeror must submit proof of affiliation pursuant to 13 CFR 121.103.
5.2 Evaluation Criteria:
5.2.1 The SSEB will first evaluate the relevancy of recent past performance identified in the proposal in response to paragraph 5.1 above. By using the criteria identified above, the SSEB will determine how relevant a past project is when compared to the scope, size, and magnitude of effort and complexities of the solicited project.
A relevancy rating will be assigned to each submitted project using the Past Performance Relevancy Ratings table above.
5.2.2 The SSEB will next review how well the offeror performed on those projects. The Government will, at a minimum, review past performance information retrieved through the Contractor Performance Assessment
Reporting System (CPARS), using all Unique Entity Identifier (UEI) numbers identified in the offeror’s proposal. The Government reserves the right to check any or all cited references to verify supplied information and to assess owner satisfaction. The Government also reserves the right to not contact the provided references. In addition to the information submitted by the offeror, the Government reserves the right to review any other sources of relevant information for evaluating past performance, including projects other than those submitted by the offeror. Other sources may include, but are not limited to, past performance information retrieved from inquiries of owner representative(s), Federal Awardee Performance and Integrity Information
System (FAPIIS), Electronic Subcontract Reporting System (eSRS), and any other known sources not provided by the offeror.
5.2.3 The SSEB will review all past performance information collected and determine the quality of the offeror’s performance, general trends, and usefulness of the information and incorporate this information into the performance confidence assessment. The SSEB will assign a final, overall Performance Confidence rating, using the ratings in the Performance Confidence Assessment table (Table 2) above, based on the SSEB’s assessment of (1) the degree of the offeror’s recent, relevant experience, and (2) how well the offeror performed that experience.
6.0 Volume I – Factor II: Management Plan
6.1 Submission Requirements:
Provide a management plan narrative for the project that describes how your labor, resources, designers, subcontractors, material suppliers, and procurement of long lead items will be managed, supervised, coordinated, and used to ensure successful completion of the project. At a minimum, the Management Plan shall also include the following information:
• Describe your process for managing, coordinating, and tracking changes that arise during construction.
• Describe how you will manage, supervise, and coordinate the subcontractors’ work and who in the organization will be responsible for this management and coordination.

NOTE: There is a page limit of ten (10) single-sided, 8.5” x 11” pages, using a minimum font size of 11 and a minimum margin of one-half inch on all sides, for the Management Plan.
6.2 Evaluation Criteria:
Plans 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. Plans that demonstrate a clear understanding of the project requirements and provide a thorough approach for successfully managing the Fort Campbell UEPH Barracks project may be rated more favorably by the SSEB. In your proposal, please detail your proposed management approach for this project. We are particularly interested in your strategy for identifying and mitigating risks associated with critical solicitation tasks. Furthermore, demonstrate your qualifications by providing a summary of your past performance and experience on other USACE projects. A rating will be assigned using the Technical Assessment Rating table above.
