- Description
- Services include, but are not limited to design and engineering services for the preparation of final plans, specifications and cost estimates for FY08 MCON P-587 Pacific Fleet Sub Drive-In MSF, Beckoning Point, Hawaii. The proposed project will construct a new 213-meter (700-foot) non-magnetic concrete slip pier at Beckoning Point, Pearl Harbor, Hawaii to support a drive-in solenoid structure, similar to the Magnetic Silencing Facility (MSF) at Kings Bay, Georgia. The work will include demolition of the existing two-story wooden pier and walkway bridge, and the existing marine rail with winch, shed and compressor; removal of the existing Z loop system; construction of new pile supported pier with overhead trusses at 14.78 meters (48.5 feet) above mean high water; construction of a pedestrian bridge; constructions of sewer connections on pier and sewer piping from pier to holding tank on shore; construction of a 411 square meter (4,425-square foot) Rectifier and Substation Building for the D.C. rectifiers, transformers, and holding vault; construction of air conditioning and ventilation for Rectifier and Substation Building; provision for telephone and local area network services and electrical utilities; installation of cable trays for the X, Y & Z loop cables (installation of cables by separate OPN funding). Fire protection requirements include installation of fire hose cabinets and fire alarm system along pier and wet pipe fire sprinklers, FM-200 system, and fire alarm system for the rectifier building. The deperming operation produces high-intensity magnetic fields during the treatment of the submarine which requires structures to be constructed with materials that have a low magnetic permeability property. Local common concrete aggregates were tested and were not acceptable. Aggregates with low magnetic permeability property may have to be imported from out of state. Other materials affected include concrete rebar, fenders, mooring, cleats, cable supports and all steel hardware. Approved materials include Nitronic 33 for rebar, reinforced plastic for fenders, stainless steel or aluminum for all other steel supports or hardware. Construction dredging will be required to obtain the required depths for the pier and the approach areas. If asbestos or hazardous materials exist, the Architect-Engineer (A-E) contractor shall identify them and provide for their disposal in the required documents in accordance with applicable rules and regulations pertaining to such hazardous materials. The selected A-E may be required to participate in a pre-fee meeting within seven days of notification and provide a fee proposal within ten days of the meeting. Follow-on phases may include post-construction award services; construction surveillance and inspection services; operational and maintenance support information services. Estimated construction cost of project is between $25,000,000 and $100,000,000. Estimated date of contract award is August 2006. Estimated design start and completion dates are October 2006 and September 2007, respectively, including review periods. Proposals may be subject to an advisory audit performed by the Defense Contract Audit Agency. The following selection evaluation criteria, in order of importance, will be used in the evaluation of A-E firms: (1) Professional qualifications of firms and staff proposed in designing major waterfront pier and wharf projects in seismic areas and corrosive environments similar to Hawaii and Pacific Ocean areas; (2) Specialized recent experience and technical competence of firm or particular staff members in designing major waterfront pier and wharf projects in seismic areas and corrosive environments similar to Hawaii and Pacific Ocean areas; (3) Past performance on contracts with Government agencies and private industry in terms of cost control, quality of work, and compliance with performance schedules; (4) Capacity to accomplish the work in the required time; (5) Knowledge and demonstrated experience in applying sustainability concepts and principles to facilities and infrastructure problems through an integrated design approach; (6) A-Es quality control program experience; (7) Location in the general geographical area of the project and knowledge of the locality of the project; provided, that application of this criterion leaves an appropriate number of qualified firms, given the nature and size of the project; (8) Extent to which firms identify and commit to small business (SB), small disadvantaged business (SDB), women-owned small business (WOSB), historically underutilized business zone small business (HUBZoneSB), historically black college or university and minority institution (HBCU/MI) and veteran-owned small business (VOSB), and service disabled veteran-owned small business (SDVOSB) in performance of this contract, whether as a joint venture, teaming arrangement, or subcontractor. For this selection criteria, the government will evaluate proposals based on two Sub-factors: (A) Past performance in Utilization of Small Business Concerns and (B) Participation of Small Business Concerns in this Project; (9) Volume of work previously awarded to the firm by the Department of Defense shall also be considered, with the object of effecting an equitable distribution of Department of Defense A-E contracts among qualified A-E firms and firms that have not had Department of Defense contracts. Include a summary of qualifications in narrative discussion addressing each of the above selection evaluation criteria on the SF 330, Part 1, Section H. If necessary, continue on plain bond paper. For selection criteria (3) the government will also evaluate each firms past performance and performance rating(s) from the Architect-Engineer Contract Administration Support System (ACASS) during the evaluation process, which can affect the selection outcome. For selection criteria (8), the Government will evaluate firms by: In support of Sub-factor (A), (1) the offeror shall provide historical data on utilization of SB, SDB, WOSB, HUBZoneSB, and SDVOSB over the past three years showing dollar value, percentage of work (of total contract value) subcontracted to large businesses, SB, SDB, WOSB, HUBZoneSB, SDVOSB, and HBCU/MI; (2) Information on national awards received within the past five years for outstanding support to SB concerns. National awards received within the last five years will be considered more favorably than national awards beyond five years; (3) Information showing ratings received on completed projects with regards to the firms implementation of subcontracting plans; (4) Information on any existing, planned or pending mentor-protege agreements under either the DOD or SBA 8(a) Programs; (5) Information on use of Community Rehabilitation Program organizations certified under the Javits Wagner O Day Program by the National Industry for the Severely Handicapped (NISH) or the National Industry for the Blind (NIB); and (6) Final SF 294s on projects completed within the past 3 years, and if subcontracting goals were not met, provide an explanation. In support of Sub-factor (B), the offeror shall identify each subconsultant by name, discipline and size status and also identify, in terms of dollar values and percentage of total proposed price, the extent of work you will perform as the prime contractor. The offeror is advised that the Government-wide goals for the total value of all prime contract per fiscal year are 23% to SB, 5% each to SDB, WOSB and 3% each to HUBZone SB and SDVOSB, and 5% to HBCU/MI. In addition, the Naval Facilities Engineering Command FY 06 subcontracting targets in term of dollar value of subcontracts are 75.83% to SB, 15.8% to SDB, 14.23% to WOSB, 1.28% to HUBZone SB and .12% to SDVOSB. FAR 52.219-8, Utilization of Small, Small Disadvantaged and Women-Owned Small Business Concerns states in part; the Contractor hereby agrees to carry out this policy in the awarding of subcontracts to the fullest extent consistent with efficient contract performance. If the offeror does not intend to subcontract, provide a detailed explanation why subcontracting would not result in efficient contract performance. The offerors are reminded that in order to receive proposal evaluation benefit as SDB or HUBZone SB either as prime or subconsultant, proposed SDBs and HUBZoneSBs must be certified by the Small Business Administration. Prime contractors may determine whether a prospective subconsultant is a certified SDB or HUBZone by accessing the Central Contractor Registration (CCR) at www.ccr.gov. Effective January 1, 2005, the Federal Acquisition Regulations (FAR) will require the use of On-Line Representations and Certifications Application (ORCA) in Federal solicitations as part of the proposal submission process. Offerors are required to complete the ORCA on-line via website http://orca.bpn.gov. Refer to FAR Clauses 52.204-7 Central Contractor Registration (Oct 2003) and 52.204-8 Annual Representations and Certifications (Jan 2005).
