The Overall Estimated Construction Cost Range for this project is $45,000,000 to $55,000,000. The procurement process will be performed in two (2) stages. The acquisition strategy for this project will be in accordance with Source Selection Processes and Techniques (FAR Part 15.1). This will be a competitive acquisition, utilizing the tradeoff process approach under the Best Value Continuum (FAR 15.101). This process permits tradeoffs among cost or price and technical factors and allows the government to accept other than the lowest priced proposal. For this acquisition all technical evaluation factors, when combined, are approximately equal to cost or price. For Stage 1, offerors must submit a technical proposal responding to the following technical evaluation factors: 1) Experience on Similar Projects, 2) Past Performance on Similar Projects and 3) Qualifications of Key Personnel. The factors will be described in the solicitation. The Source Selection Evaluation Board will evaluate the technical proposals received against the factors identified for Stage I. Based on the evaluation of each proposal, a competitive range will be established in accordance with FAR 15.306(c)(1). Then, in accordance with FAR 15.306(c)(2), based on the results of the evaluation, the Contracting Officer will limit the number of proposals in the competitive range to the greatest number that will permit an efficient competition among the most highly rated offerors. For this procurement, the competition will be limited to the three (3) most highly rated offerors. The three most highly rated offerors found to be within the competitive range will EACH be issued a stipend in the amount of $120,000 and will proceed into Stage 2 of the procurement process. The stipend will be paid to each offeror for their total effort related to the services rendered during Stage 2. Those firms found to be within the competitive range will assist the GSA with the A-E’s Design by performing the review and evaluation of the design and construction documents. The offerors will be required to work with GSA in a cooperative team effort to develop a quality design which is within budget. Each offeror will be required to notify GSA of all issues regarding design submissions that appear inadequate and which may have the potential to jeopardize the project’s goals relating to schedule, cost, quality or scope. The Stage 2 submission will include a Technical and Price proposal. The Stage 2 technical proposal will include the following technical evaluation factors: 4) Design and Constructability Review and Oral Presentations; 5) Management Plan and Oral Presentations. At the conclusion of the design review services, the participating offerors will propose a Firm Fixed Price for the construction services option required under this acquisition. Award of the required construction services option will be based on the evaluation of the offeror’s proposed Firm Fixed Price and a comparative assessment of the offerors’ technical proposals against the source selection evaluation criteria identified within the solicitation. Factors 4 and 5 are equal in importance to Factors 1 and 2, which are more important than Factor 3. All the technical evaluation factors, when combined, are approximately equal to cost or price. The offeror’s firm fixed price proposals for the Construction Services Option will not be assigned a numerical weight, point score or adjectival rating. GSA will use price analysis to evaluate the price proposal, not only to determine whether it is fair and reasonable, but also to determine the offeror’s understanding of the work and their ability to perform the requirements stipulated within this acquisition. Although the Government anticipates awarding the Construction Services Option without discussions, if discussions are conducted the competitive range will include all three offerors from Stage I, unless the range is further reduced for purposes of efficiency. . Stage 1 submissions (technical proposals) will be due by 1:30pm, May 16, 2007. The RFP will include all the submission requirements. This procurement is being issued under the Small Business Competitive Demonstration Program, and will be open to both large and small business concerns. Before award of the contract, the firm (if not a small business of $28,500,000 gross average sales/receipts for the past three years) shall be required to present an acceptable Small Business Subcontracting Plan in accordance with Public Law 95-507. As part of its commitment to socioeconomic initiatives of the Federal Government, GSA will establish subcontracting goals for Small Business, Small Disadvantaged Business, Women-Owned Small Business, Hubzone Small Business and Service Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business concerns. In support of the agency’s effort, firms seeking consideration for this contract shall demonstrate a proactive effort in achieving these goals, and will place subcontracts to the maximum practical extent with the small business categories listed above. GSA anticipates hosting a Subcontracting Opportunities Networking session for this project. The Networking session is intended to affirm GSA’s recognition of the talent that exists in the small business community and its commitment to opening a dialogue between the community and the firms which are considering submitting proposals on this project. The contract award or GSA exercise of any option is contingent upon the availability of funds. The Request for Proposal (RFP) will be issued on or about April 17, 2007. GSA will be holding a PreProposal conference for the Stage 1 submissions. The date and time for this conference will be issued under a separate announcement.
