EVALUATION FACTORS FOR AWARD: The Proposed Task Order will be awarded to the responsible offeror offering the best value to the Government. To make a determination of Best Value, the Government shall evaluate each offeror on the following criteria: Non-Cost/Price Evaluation Factors Factor 1 - Technical Solution Factor 2 - Past Performance The relative order of importance of the non-price evaluation factors is the technical factor (Factor 1 - Technical Solution) is of equal importance to the performance confidence assessment (Factor 2 - Past Performance). The combined non-cost factors are approximately equal to price. Factor 1 -Technical Solution: i) Solicitation Submittal Requirements: a) The Offeror shall provide a "Technical Approach Narrative" describing the technical solution to the project that meets the requirements of the RFP and that demonstrates the Offeror's ability to successfully perform this project in Naval Station Norfolk, Norfolk, VA. Include the following: 1. Overall management and coordination of simultaneous construction activities in regards to multiple disciplines. 2. Approach to successfully completing the project at Pier 1 within the requirements of specification section 01 14 00.00 during the project. 3. Approach to avoid project schedule slippage due to material/equipment procurement and delivery delays. b) Provide a "Labor Force Narrative" describing how the needed skilled labor forces will be provided and maintained throughout the duration of this construction contract for all labor forces at Naval Station, Norfolk, VA. The narrative shall address at a minimum: 1. Securing the needed workforce/skilled work force to work the project. 2. Maintaining the workforce as needed. 3. Design and Construction subcontractors (civil, structural, mechanical, electrical, interiors, and fire protection) and their ability to provide skilled labor. c) Provide an overall CPM schedule showing the timeline of the proposed designs and construction for all three sites as one project. Schedule narrative shall not exceed two (2) double-sided pages (or four (4) single-sided pages). There are no page restrictions on the project schedule reports, but they must be printed on 11"x17" paper. ii) Basis of Evaluation: The Offerors will be evaluated on the extent to which they demonstrate both a clear understanding of the requirements of the RFP and a realistic plan for performing the necessary work within the permitted time period. An offeror whose schedule proposes a realistic and feasible contract duration shorter than the duration permitted by the RFP will be considered more favorably than those that do not. The basis of evaluation will also include the extent to which the Offeror's narratives and CPM schedule demonstrate a realistic plan for handling the complexity of the actual construction work as well as the complexity of working at the pier. The assessment of the Offeror's narrative and CPM schedule will be used as a means of evaluating the capability of the Offeror to successfully meet the requirements of the RFP. An Offeror's "Technical Approach Narrative" that identifies areas of risk in logistics and resource management and provides a comprehensive contingency plan that addresses mitigation of any identified risks with potential solutions may be considered more favorably than those that do not. Factor 2 - Past Performance: i) Solicitation Submittal Requirements: Offerors do not need to provide any information under this factor as the Government will base the evaluation on known past performance on task orders awarded under this Multiple Award Contract (MAC). However, Offerors may provide any information on problems encountered and the corrective actions taken on task orders under this MAC. Offerors may also address any adverse past performance issues under this MAC. Explanations shall not exceed two (2) double-sided pages (or four (4) single- sided pages) in total. ii) Basis of Evaluation: This evaluation focuses on how well the Offeror performed on projects under this Multiple Award Contract. More emphasis will be placed on task orders that are more similar to the RFP. The Government reserves the right to obtain information for use in the evaluation of past performance other than projects performed under this Multiple Award Contract from any and all sources including sources outside of the Government. Other sources may include, but are not limited to, past performance information retrieved through the Past Performance Information Retrieval System (PPIRS), 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. The Government will consider the currency and relevance of the information, the source of the information, context of the data, and general trends in the Contractor's performance. This evaluation is separate and distinct from the Contracting Officer's responsibility determination. The assessment of the Offeror's past performance will be used as a means of evaluating the Offeror's ability to successfully meet the requirements of the RFP. Offerors lacking past performance information on other task orders under this Multiple Award Contract will not be evaluated favorably or unfavorably in past performance and will receive a Neutral Confidence rating. Price i) Solicitation Submittal Requirements - Offeror shall submit one (1) original, marked "Original", and one (1) copy, with the following: o Cover page with Solicitation Number, Solicitation Title, Prime Contractor Name, Address, Phone Number, Fax Number, DUNS, Cage Code, Point of Contact, Phone Number, and Email Address o Price Proposal Form (ATTACHMENT G) o Acknowledgement of Amendment(s) (as applicable) (ATTACHMENT H) o Copy of Representation and Certifications and proof of registration in System for Award Management (SAM) o Bid Bond o Completed copy of Provision 52.204-24 (Attachment I) ii) Basis of Evaluation - The Government will evaluate price based on the total price proposal including the base price, all options, and all planned modifications. Analysis will be performed by one or more of the following techniques to ensure a fair and reasonable price: a) Comparison of proposed prices received in response to the RFP. b) Comparison of proposed prices with the Independent Government Cost Estimate (IGCE). c) Comparison of Proposed prices with available historical information. d) Comparison of market survey results. EVALUATION 1. The Government reserves the right to eliminate from consideration for award any or all offers at any time prior to award of the contract; to negotiate with offerors in the competitive range; and to award the contract to the offeror submitting the proposal determined to represent the best value-the proposal most advantageous to the Government, price and other factors considered. 2. The Government intends to evaluate proposals and award a contract without discussions with offerors (except clarifications as described in FAR 15.306(a)). The Government reserves the right to conduct discussions if the Contracting Officer later determines them to be necessary. In addition, 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. 3. The tradeoff process is selected as appropriate for this acquisition. The Government considers it to be in its best interest to allow consideration of award to other than the lowest priced offeror or other than the highest technically rated offeror. 4. The single technical factor is of equal importance to the performance confidence assessment (past performance) rating; and all non-price factors, when combined, are significantly more important than price. 5. Any proposal found to have a Deficiency in meeting the stated solicitation requirements or performance objectives will be considered ineligible for award, unless the Deficiency is corrected through discussions. Proposals may be found to have either a Significant Weakness or multiple Weaknesses that impact either the individual factor rating or the overall rating for the proposal. The evaluation report must document the evaluation board's assessment of the identified Weakness(s) and the associated risk to successful contract performance resulting from the Weakness(s). This assessment must provide the rationale for proceeding to award without discussions. *The value for this project is based on a financial range. The value is listed as the highest possible cost from the range provided by a stakeholder or official project document.
