- Description
- The Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) is soliciting SF-254's and SF-255's for an Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) A&E construction services contract for work within the state of Oklahoma (NAICS Code 541330-Engineering Services). The contract will include one base year and three option year periods. Work under this contract to be subject to satisfactory negotiation of individual task orders. The price of any single task order shall be at least $5,000 but shall not exceed $1,000,000. The maximum order amount for the contract period base year shall be $1,000,000. The guaranteed minimum contract is $5,000 for the basic period only. There is to be no guaranteed minimum for the option periods, if exercised. Task orders could include performance of any part or all operations necessary to perform surveys, designs, and construction quality assurance (construction inspection) for various water resources projects within Oklahoma. Surveys required may consist of, but are not limited to any part or all of the following activities: topographic/planimetric surveys, magnetometer surveys, hydrographic/ bathymetric surveys, horizontal and vertical control surveys, design surveys, development of graphical representations of survey data collected, construction layout surveys, and surveys for quantity computations. Design activities required may consist of, but are not limited to any part or all of the following activities: design water resources project features, prepare construction specifications, prepare construction plans (drawings), prepare landrights work maps, prepare cost estimates, prepare bid schedules, quantity computation checks and certifications, independent reviews, and prepare design folders. The typical project could require knowledge and experience in all aspects of engineering surveys and engineering design activities associated with the design and construction of deep and shallow foundations (bearing capacity, consolidation, seepage, etc.), earth embankments, roller compacted concrete structures, earthwork, reinforced concrete structures, automated and manual water control gates, rock riprap placement, timber structures, steel structures and structural fabrication, timber, steel and concrete piling, sheet piling and channel bank stabilization measures. The firm will be required to perform engineering survey and engineering design activities in accordance with NRCS standards. The firm will be required to interpret geotechnical reports and accurately apply the data to the design of the project measures. The majority of design work will be civil. All drawings will be computer generated in *.dwg format. Electronic copies and originals hard copies are to be furnished to NRCS. PRE-SELECTION CRITERIA. Firms must meet the following criteria in order to be considered for an award under this requirement. (1) Have a minimum of two engineers employed on a full time basis. At least one engineer must be a Registered Professional Engineer in the state of Oklahoma with a minimum of ten years experience. (2) Associated with or have a minimum of one land surveyor registered as a Professional Land Surveyor in the state of Oklahoma, with a minimum of ten years experience. (3) Associated with or have a minimum of two draftspersons employed on a full time basis, one with a minimum of five years CAD experience and the other with a minimum of one year's experience. SELECTION CRITERIA. Firms meeting the pre-selection criteria will be evaluated and ranked using the following selection criteria: (1) Specialized experience and technical competence in the type of work required. Evaluation will be based on the extent of directly related experience in performing engineering surveys and engineering designs of the types of projects described; specialized education at the university level, and all other applicable education, training, and certifications. Consideration will be given to those firms with knowledge of and direct experience in the application of the described requirements in flood prevention and water resource projects in Oklahoma. Evaluation will include experience using SITES, HEC-RAS, TR66, TR20 computer models, following TR60 guidelines, hydrologic and hydraulic design of complex watersheds, designing complex foundation and drainage features, and experience in the engineering survey and engineering design of NRCS/COE flood prevention and water resource projects. Examples of work shall be documented for review, as well as a description of the type work performed on SF-254's and SF-255's. These work descriptions will be evaluated based on the documented complexity of work performed. (2) Professional qualifications necessary for satisfactory performance. Evaluation will be based upon the number of qualified personnel and their knowledge and level of experience associated with the requirements above, and their availability to perform work on this contract. (3) Capacity to accomplish the work. Evaluation will be based upon the number of personnel available in the disciplines described above, the quantity of existing work under contract, and the schedules for completion of the existing work. (4) Past performance on contracts with government agencies and private industry. Evaluation will be based upon the firm's past experience with other government agencies and the private sector in performing the requirements described; the quality and timeliness of performance under previous contracts. References with telephone numbers must be provided. (5) Location in the general geographic area and knowledge of the locality. Evaluation will be based upon the firms' proximity to Oklahoma and work experience within Oklahoma. The above evaluation factors are listed in the order of importance, factor 1 being most important, factors 2 through 4 being equally important, and factor 5 being least important. Interested A&E firms that meet the criteria outlined above are invited to submit four (4) copies each of SF-254 (Architect Engineer and Related Services Questionnaire), SF-255 (Architect Engineer and Related Services Questionnaire for a Specific Project) and any other information relative to the selection criteria to the contracting office address listed above by close of business January 22, 2003. Only those firms responding by that time will be considered for selection. This is not a Request for Proposal.
