The duration of the contract will be for one (1) year from the date of initial contract award with four (4) additional one-year option periods. The total amount that may be paid under this contract (including option years) will not exceed $100,000,000 for the entire contract term. The options may be exercised within the time frame specified in the resultant contract at the sole discretion of the Government subject to workload and/or satisfaction of the A-E performance under the subject contract. There will be no synopsis in the event the options are exercised. The minimum guarantee for the entire contract term (including option years) is $100,000. There will be no dollar limit per task order and no dollar limit per year. No other general notification to firms for other similar projects performed under this contract will be made. Estimated award timeframe is September/October 2008. This proposed contract is being solicited on an unrestricted basis. All contractors are advised that registration in the DOD Central Contractor Registration (CCR) Database is required prior to award of a contract. Failure to register in the DOD CCR Database may render your firm ineligible for award. For more information, check the DOD CCR Website at http://www.ccr.gov. 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 52.204-8 Annual Representations and Certifications (Jan 2005). Large Business firms who are short-listed will be required to submit a subcontracting plan as part of the interview. The selected A-E firm 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. The contract will require that the selected A-E firm have e-mail and Internet on-line access for routine exchange of correspondence. Fee proposals may be subject to an advisory audit performed by the Defense Contract Audit Agency. The awarded contract will be subject to specific provisions addressing the avoidance of organizational conflicts of interest, including NFAS 5252.209-9300 Organizational Conflicts of Interest. The selected firm, its subsidiaries or affiliates may be tasked to assist in the preparation of a statement of work, a plan, or a specification for a construction project. The selected firm, its affiliates, consultants and subcontractors under this contract will be ineligible to perform any contractual effort for a design or construction contract which is based on that statement of work, design, or specification. In addition, the selected firm and its affiliates, consultants, and subcontractors will not be able to compete for or perform, as a contractor, subcontractor, consultant, or in any other capacity, future design or construction work where the selected contractor gains access to non-public data such as, but not limited to, internal budget data, internal cost estimates, plans, work descriptions, and/or design specifications that, in the judgment of the Contracting Officer, could give rise to an unfair competitive advantage for the future work. Thus for example, performance of concept design, which includes preparation of project programming documents (DD1391), facility siting studies, environmental assessments, or other activities that result in identification of a project scope and cost, shall be considered ineligible to participate in any contractual effort for a project that is based on these concept design efforts. A-E firms which meet the requirements described in this announcement are invited to submit a completed Standard Form 330, Architect Engineer Qualifications. Any other information submitted such as company brochures, leaflets, etc., will not be considered. The SF 330 should be typed and one sided. As an attachment, provide an organization chart of the proposed team showing the names and roles of all key personnel listed in Section E with the associated firm as listed in Section C. Please include your DUNS, CAGE, and TIN numbers in Block 30 of the SF 330. Provide evidence that your firm is permitted by law to practice the professions of architecture or engineering, i.e., State registration number.

Responses should be sent to the following address: Commander, Code NAVFAC PAC ACQ13 (A-E Solicitation No. N62742-08-R-0009), Attn: Mailroom (MS2), NAVFAC PACIFIC, 258 Makalapa Drive, Suite 100, Pearl Harbor, HI 96860-3134. This address is for all deliveries, including US Mail, courier service and/or personal delivery services. Late responses will be handled in accordance with FAR 52.215-1. The delivery address is inside a military installation; therefore, strict security measures are in force and delays should be anticipated. Electronic (e-mail, facsimile, etc.) submissions are not authorized. Firms responding to this advertisement are requested to submit one paper copy and one CD electronic copy of their SF 330. Notifications will be sent via email; therefore, please include an email address in Block 8 of the SF 330. Subsequent contracts in support of the Defense Policy Review Initiative (DPRI) under the cognizance of NAVFAC Pacific include: Two (2) additional Design Management support services contracts for (1) waterfront/marine facilities (including piers and wharves) and (2) aviation facilities (including hangars and aprons). As mentioned at the March 2008 Industry Forum in Guam, a Construction Management support services contract is also planned with performance tied to approval of the Record of Decision (ROD) and the commencement of construction.
