Question

1. SF 1442, Section 10

Answer: Yes, Government will exercise option early if needed.

1) Is the contract limited to $20 million annually, or is that an estimated breakout of the total contract volume of $100 million. If a limit, does the Government intend to exercise options early if the $20 million is achieved prior to the end of the year?

7. Section C, Paragraph C.2.2.7

Answer: No, all local, city, state and government permit requirements shall be enforced and complied with.

7) As permit requirements and cost vary from job to job, would the Government consider removing permit costs from the coefficient?

a) Please confirm that a Superintendent rather than a Project Manager shall be at the worksite when work is in progress, as assigned.

b) Because this is a JOC, would the Government consider allowing Superintendents to manage multiple worksites, depending on size, scope, complexity, and proximity of projects, and with approval? IF so, how many projects will one Superintendent be allowed to typically manage at tone time?

26. Section H, Paragraph H.13.4.1

Answer: No

26) Would the Government consider removing the requirement for the specific engineering disciplines as part of the bachelor’s degree? This position is required to be a P.E., proving a proficiency in appropriate engineering requirements.

29. Section H, Paragraph H.13.4.3 contractor however the Senior Construction Superintendent with the most experience shall be considered the most qualified.

29) This section indicates a requirement for the Senior Construction Superintendent have experience managing no less than fifty projects per fiscal year simultaneously totaling a minimum of $50 million.

Answer: No, the contractor must be ready to hit the ground running at day one and be fully staffed as required.

Multiple projects may be ready to move into the Award Phase and contractor must be able to handle potential work load.

34) The staffing requirements are very restrictive for a small business firm, especially noting that there are very few contracts of similar size, scope, and complexity for Federal facilities and that letters of commitment are required for each individual, meaning they must be on staff or identified prior to proposal submission. Would the Government please consider opening up the requirements for relevant experience to allow more firms to participate in this opportunity?

35. Section I, Clause 52.216-19

Answer: FAR Clause 52.216-19 has been revised.

49. Section L, Paragraph 3.b.4.d

(Volume IV)

Answer: No, Offeror must provide NNP Coefficient for the overall contract.

49) This paragraph defines the bare NPP cost as the cost of the work without prime or subcontractor overhead.

Subcontractor overheads can vary significantly by trade and are typically considered part of the bare cost to which the NPP coefficient is applied. Would the Government consider allowing the NPP coefficient to be a markup to a complete subcontractor quote including the sub’s overhead and profit?

50. Section M, Paragraph M.3.3.4.1; Attachment 4, Pricing Sheet

Answer: Attachment 4 has been revised.

50) Section M contains a different calculation of the Total Evaluated Price than is provided in Attachment 4. Please clarify.

57. Draft Solicitation, Page 13 of 94, Section C.4.4.3(a) Senior Site Manager.

Answer: Senior Site manager and Program manager are the same.

57) Section C.4.4.3(a) heading is Senior Site Manager (Licensed PE). However the text below regarding Senior Site Manager’s qualifications uses the term Program Manager. For the proposal narrative we provide, are the titles Senior Site Manager and Program Manager considered the same role and can the titles be interchanged?

58. Draft Solicitation, Page 45 of 94, Section H.13.4.1. Senior Site Manager (PE).

Answer: No, the Senior Site Manger must have a professional registration. If it is an Architect then they must have a Registered Architects License. These requirements are not negotiable.

58) Per the above referenced section, the Senior Site Manager must have the following qualifications:

• Licensed PE

• Minimum 10 years experience

• Experience managing no less than fifty (50) projects per fiscal year simultaneously totaling a minimum of $50 million.

• 15 years experience developing detailed cost estimates and proposals.

• Minimum 15 years experience as construction supervisor , superintendent and CQC/Safety Inspector.

• Must have Bachelor’s degree in Engineering in either Mechanical, Electrical, Civil or Structural Engineering

• Or Bachelor’s degree in Construction Management

• Or Bachelor’s degree in Architecture or equivalent

We request that you remove the Professional Engineer (PE) requirement for this role. If proposed key personnel holds a bachelor’s degree in construction management or Architecture, they will not be eligible for a PE registration. More importantly, it doesn’t appear that the contract requirements require engineering services. So the PE unfairly limits personnel and in some cases small businesses that may not have a PE in their firm managing their construction contracts.

Restate “the Senior Site Manager must have is preferred to have the following qualifications:”

And we request the qualifications be brought down to twenty

(20) projects per fiscal year simultaneously totaling a minimum of $20 million. Per the RFP, there is a $20M maximum per year for the proposed contract. The requirement to demonstrate a minimum of $50 million per year far exceeds the proposed contract’s requirements. The current requirement excludes many experienced JOC contractors and can only be filled by a senior executive/VP level person who oversees multiple programs. Also, per research, the maximum the incumbent received per fiscal year for this contract was $22.7M with an average per year of $9.3 million. Again, the required minimum of $50 million per year far exceeds the contract’s historical requirements. And even at $20M that will limit many small businesses that have the corporate capability to ensure the contract can be managed effectively by an experienced team, even if the single manager has not managed $20M in one year.

59. Draft Solicitation, Page 46 of

94, Section H.13.4.2. Senior Project Manager.

Answer: Please See Revised Section H.

59) Per the above referenced section, the Senior Project Manager must have the following qualifications:

- 10 years experience developing detailed cost estimates and proposals.

- 8 years experience as construction supervisor , superintendent and CQC/Safety Inspector.

- Shall have Bachelor’s degree in Engineering in either Mechanical, Electrical, Civil or Structural Engineering

- Or Bachelor’s degree in Construction Management

- Or Bachelor’s degree in Architecture or equivalent

Restate “the Senior Project Manager must have is preferred to have the following qualifications:”

We request the qualifications be brought down to twenty

(20) per fiscal year simultaneously totaling a minimum of $20 million. Per the RFP, there is a $20M maximum per year for the proposed contract. The requirement to demonstrate a minimum of $25 million per year exceeds the proposed contract’s requirements and excludes several excellent Project Managers with careers in JOC contracting. Also, per research, the maximum the incumbent received per fiscal year for this contract was $22.7M with an average per year of $9.3 million. Again, the required minimum of $20 million per year far exceeds the contract’s average historical requirements.

60. Draft Solicitation, Page 46 of 94, Section H.13.4.3. Senior Construction Superintendent.

Answer: Please See Revised Section H.

60) Per the above referenced section, the Senior Construction Superintendent must have the following qualifications:

- Shall have Bachelor’s degree of engineering in either Mechanical, electrical, civil or structural engineering

- Or Bachelor’s degree in Construction Management

- Or on the job training

Restate “the Senior Construction Superintendent must have is preferred to have the following qualifications:”

We request the qualifications be brought down to twenty (20) per fiscal year simultaneously totaling a minimum of $20 million. Per the RFP, there is a $20M maximum per year for the proposed contract. The requirement to demonstrate a minimum of $20 million per year excludes several excellent Superintendents who have made their careers in JOC contracting. Also, per research, the maximum the incumbent received per fiscal year for this contract was $22.7M with an average per year of $9.3 million. Again, the required minimum of $20 million per year far exceeds the contract’s average historical requirements.

61. Draft Solicitation, Page 47 of 94, Section H.13.4.5. Office Managers.

Answer: Purchasing Agent or Expeditor shall be designated by the contractor.

61) Per the above referenced section, the Office Manager shall also have the capability of acting as a Purchasing Agent or Expeditor.

Please restate to say that the contractor shall designate an individual to also function as a Purchasing Agent and Expediter.

62. Section L, General Instructions,

1. Proposal Submittal and Inquiries, Paragraph a

Answer: Please see revised Section L.

62) After visiting the safe.apps.mil website, it appears that a request code will be required from the recipient in order to upload proposal files for submission. Will the request code be issued with the final solicitation?

63. Section L, General Instructions,

3. Proposal Preparation Instructions, Paragraph a.3

Answer: Yes.

63) The instructions state that all electronic documents are to be Microsoft Office 2010 based. Would the Government consider allowing Portable Document Format (PDF) files to allow for Government provided forms, such as the SF 1442, PPQs, etc?

64. Section L, General Instruction,

3. Proposal Preparations Instructions, Paragraph b.1 Volume 1 – General

Answer: Please see Revised Section L.

64) This paragraph lists a completed Section B among the documents required for Volume 1, yet it is not detailed as a requirement under Tabs A-F for Volume I. Please confirm that it is listed in error for Volume I and is only to be submitted with our pricing in Volume IV.

65. Section L, General Instructions,

3. Proposal Preparation Instructions, Paragraph 2.

Volume II – Project Management Ability – TAB A, 2nd Bullet (Page 89 of 94).

Answer: Offeror to provide full QC and Safety Plans even if they exceed limitation of 30 pages.

65) The RFP states, “Offeror shall provide their proposed quality control and safety plans….” Volume II is limited to 30 pages and our QC and Safety plans alone far exceed these limitations. Does the Government want complete proposed plans or only a summary of the key aspects of our proposed QC and Safety plans? If complete plans are desired, will they be exempt from the page limitations for Volume II?

66. Section C, C.4.4 Contractor Staff, C.4.4.3(a) Senior Site Manager (Page 13 of 94)

66) Will fifteen (15) years or more of construction IDIQ program management experience be acceptable for the Senior Site Manager/Program Manager in lieu of being a licensed PE?

Answer: NO, the PE and Architectural Registration requirement is non-negotiable.

67. Section L, General Instructions,

3. Proposal Preparation Instructions, Volume III – Past Performance Proposal – Evaluation Factor 2, Paragraph (4), 3rd bullet, Consent Letters (Page 89 of 94)

Answer: Yes.

67) If offeror is pursuing this contract as a single prime contractor, but citing past performance performed with a previous teaming or joint venture partner, is a consent letter required?

68. Section C, Paragraph C.4.3 Supervision (Page 13 of 94) and Paragraph C.5.1.1 (Page 17 of 94)

Answer: Project Manager is not required to be on worksite when work is being performed as long as Superintendent is present on every worksite.

68) Paragraph C.4.3 states that a dedicated Project Manager should be provided on every worksite when work is being performed. Is this in addition to having a Superintendent on every worksite, as stated in Paragraph C.5.1.1?

69. PPQ, Attachment 3 – Appendix D Enclosure 2, Paragraph 1

Answer: Please see revised Section L and PPQ.

69) The PPQ states “…Contractors record of past (within the past three years) and current performance.” Section M.3.2.3.1. Recency states, “the effort must have been performed during the five (5) years prior to date for receipt of offers.” Please change the PPQ language to confirm Offerors will be evaluated on past performance performed during the last five years as stated in the RFP.

70. PPQ, Attachment 3 – Appendix D Enclosure 2, Part III. Return Information

Answer: Please see Section L for KO’s email address.

70) PPQ states to return the completed Questionnaire via email to the Contracting Officer identified in the cover letter.

There is no accompanying cover letter provided with the PPQ and draft RFP package. Will the Government be providing a cover letter with the Contracting Officer’s information?

71. Section C, Paragraph C.5.1.1 (page 17 of 94)

Answer: No, Ft. Lee recognizes that offeror will be assigned multiple projects to per different Superintendent

71) Section C states that, “The Contractor shall assign a Site Superintendent for each project in accordance with FAR 52.236-6 Superintendence by the Contractor, or as otherwise required by any order issued under this contract.” Earlier in Section C, Paragraph C.1.2, it states to anticipate upwards of 100 multi-discipline projects being executed simultaneously. Projects will vary in scope and value from $2,000 to approximately $4.5M. Are Offeror’s to assume that a separate Site Superintendent (upwards of

100) is required for each project, regardless of complexity of the task order?
