The acquisition will be solicited using the procurement process prescribed in Part 15 of the Federal Acquisition Regulations. The Government intends to award using the Best Value Tradeoff Process to one responsible offeror whose proposal conforms to all the terms and conditions of the solicitation and whose proposal is determined to represent the overall best value to the Government.
There will be a pre-proposal site visit to allow prospective offerors access to the site. The date and time will be listed in the solicitation document posted to FBO.gov; offerors are urged and expected to inspect the site where the work will be performed during this one escorted site visit the Government will host. Note: The solicitation and subsequent contract will include FAR 52.236-2, Differing Site Conditions, and 52.236-3, Site Investigation and Conditions Affecting the Work.

Each offeror will be restricted to two attendees; provide the following information in the email: name, company name, email, and phone number.
This requirement is to provide remediation services at the DuPont FUSRAP site. The remediation services include the removal of radioactively contaminated soil and ancillary groundwater from Areas of Concern (AOCs) at the DuPont FUSRAP site. The bulk of the soil volume is mixed waste which includes FUSRAP-related waste and non-FUSRAP chemicals mixed with the FUSRAP waste. Certain non-FUSRAP chemical waste require appropriate handling and health and safety measures during the excavation.
Also, included is removal of all FUSRAP related debris and hazardous material which may contain above and below ground utilities. Existing utilities must be protected and if necessary may be replaced which could include water, sanitary line, steam conveyance piping and possibly other Chemours utilities. Work will include treating some contaminated groundwater with the Construction Water Treatment Plant (CWTP), transportation and disposal of waste, and soil and groundwater sampling. Additionally, site restoration activities will be required including backfilling, regrading and possibly paving portions of the site. Lastly, the Contractor shall be responsible for dismantling and demobilization of the CWTP.
This acquisition will be solicited using the procurement process prescribed in Part 15 of the Federal Acquisition Regulations. The Government intends to award a contract resulting from this solicitation to a single responsible offeror whose proposal, conforming to the terms and conditions of the solicitation represents the overall best value to the Government after evaluation in accordance with the factors and subfactors in the solicitation without discussions. The offeror's initial proposal should therefore contain the offeror's best terms from a technical and price standpoint. The Government reserves the right to conduct discussions if the Contracting Officer later determines them to be necessary.
Proposals will be evaluated against the following factors and sub factors (listed in descending order of importance) as listed in the solicitation Factor I - Technical Approach, subfactor 1 - Corporate Experience, Subfactor 2 - Organization Approach/Management Plan/Quality Assurance Approach, Subfactor 3 - Project Completion Approach and Safety, Factor 2 - Past Performance, Construction, and Factor 3 - Price. All evaluation factors other than price, when combined, are significantly more important than Price; however, Price will remain a significant factor and will increase in significance in the selection decision the closer two proposals are in rating and ranking.
