The General Services Administration announces an opportunity for PHASE II - RENOVATION CONSTRUCTION SERVICES for the Frank M.

In response to this notice, Construction Contractors may request to be put on the Bidder?s Mailing List (BML) by submitting a one-page letter to the attention of Wylene Bell, Contracting Officer (4PCA), General Services Administration (GSA), Property Development Division, 401 West Peachtree Street, N.W., Suite 2513, Atlanta, GA 30308.

All correspondence in response to this announcement must clearly indicate the Solicitation Number GS-04P-02-EXC-0077. The tentative date for the issuance of the RFP is scheduled for February 6, 2003. A Pre-Proposal Conference is tentatively scheduled to be held approximately ten days following the issuance of the RFP, to answer questions that offerors may have concerning the scope of services and evaluation criteria. A Small Business Subcontracting Networking Session (this session is for small business subcontractors to be given an opportunity to network with potential prime contractors) is scheduled to immediately follow the Pre-Proposal Conference. The contractor selected will be required to furnish all labor, equipment, materials, tools, transportation, and supervision to renovate the building as required by the RFP. The U. S. District Court, U. S. Circuit Court, U. S. Probation Office, U. S. Marshal Service, U.S. Senate Office and other Federal Agencies will occupy the facility.

A General Construction Contractor will be procured for the above services utilizing Source Selection procedures in accordance with FAR Part 15. The Government contemplates the award of a Firm-Fixed Priced (FFP) type contract. The best value continuum concept will be utilized for evaluation of offers and selection of the successful offeror. The best value approach provides the opportunity for cost/technical tradeoffs; therefore, award will not necessarily be made to the lowest priced offer or the highest technically ranked offer. The Government will select the proposal that represents the best value based on the evaluation of both price and technical factors. All technical evaluation factors total score is significantly more important than cost (or price). The Government intends to evaluate proposals and award a contract without discussions with offerors (except clarifications as described in FAR 15.306(a)). Therefore, the offerors initial proposal should contain the offerors best terms from a cost or 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. The following technical evaluation factors will be evaluated. 1) Firm's Past Performance in Providing Similar Construction Services (400 Points). The offeror is required to (a) Demonstrate past performance by listing and submitting references on at least three similar size CONSTRUCTION projects that it, as a prime contractor, has performed. (b) Demonstrate past performance and ability in working in a non-adversarial relationship with an owner/developer, including litigation avoidance.
