The following questions are being answered. This modification has been issued to answer a question pertaining to the current solicitation. PLEASE READ THE ENTIRE SOLICITATION AND ATTACHMENTS BEFORE SUBMITTING QUESTIONS. SUBMIT QUESTIONS TO Ms Wanda Jobe, at email wanda.f.jobe.civ@army.mil. Question #1: As the SOW states it is our choice whether to leave the plant on- base or remove and return with each Task Order, does this mean there will only be one opportunity for mobilization reimbursement or price? Answer #1: While it is the Contractor's decision to leave the plant on-base or remove and return per Delivery Order; historically, the contractor has left the plant on-base. There is the possibility of multiple Mobilization Reimbursements, but not for per every Delivery Order for this requirement. Question #2: Can you give us any idea as to the minimum tonnage per Task Order, regardless of size? Answer #2: Historically the smallest amount was approximately 5,000 tons. A typical DO is usually approx. 10,000 to 15,000 tons. Additionally, as stated in the solicitation, clause 52.216-19 provides the Order limitations Question #3: Additionally, the Bid Schedule calls for a quote for 15,000 tons. Answer #3: a. Does this mean this is the estimated total usage per year? Answer: Quote is for estimated quantities that could be more or less; however, 15,000 is the historic quantity ground b. If not, what is the estimated usage annually per historical data? Answer: See above Question #4: The Bid Schedule calls for transport and stockpiling of 10,000 tons to 3 separate locations or distances. a. Is this amount in addition to the 15,000 tons? Answer: NO, the 15,000 tons is in reference to grinding only. CLINS 0003-0005 are in reference to hauling the product to the specified location on the installation. Hauling may or may not be required during performance of the contract and could be at any of the distances of combination of distances. Hauling is normally used for stockpiling but could include quote mark tailgating quote mark of material b. Or is it included within the 15,000 tons? Answer: NO, this is not included with the 15,000 tons of grinded slab, this is a separately priced item. c. If it is included, what happens to the remaining 5,000 tons? Answer: CLINS 0002-0005 are not to be combined, these are all separately priced items for this requirement.

Trade-offs between cost/price and non-cost/price factors are not permitted. A price analysis of the offers received will be in accordance with the techniques of FAR Part 15.404. As part of price evaluation, the Government will evaluate its option to extend services (FAR Clause 52.217-8) by adding one-half of the offeror's final option period prices to the offeror's total price.

The Government may reject any or all offers if such action is in the public interest; accept other than the lowest offer; and waive informalities and minor irregularities in offers received.

Factor III: Price (2) Factor I -Technical Acceptability: The Technical Acceptability Factor evaluation provides an assessment of the offeror's capability to satisfy the Government's minimum requirements. Acceptability Standard: Experience: The offeror demonstrates experience in performing the requirements identified in the PWS. The offeror shall submit a list of recent (within the past 3 years ) and relevant contracts/subcontracts that demonstrate an ability to perform the work described in the solicitation. Specifically, the orders/contracts should demonstrate three years experience in operating a fully functional industrial shredding plant capable of producing aggregate from steel reinforced concrete, concrete block, and asphalt. The Technical Acceptability Factor will receive one (1) of the adjectival ratings defined below. The individual standards will not receive an adjectival rating. Table 1. Technical Acceptable/Unacceptable Ratings RatingDescription AcceptableOffer clearly meets the minimum requirements of the solicitation. UnacceptableOffer does not clearly meet the minimum requirements of the solicitation. (3) Factor II - Past Performance : The offeror shall submit a list of relevant government and/or private sector contracts and subcontracts it has performed, or is performing, within the past three (3) years. Relevant is defined as same or similar to the proposed effort in size, scope, or complexity (see specific definition below). On-going contracts/subcontracts shall have been performed for a minimum of six months. Offeror shall provide the following information on previous contract awards with Government (local, state, federal), private sector clients, subcontracts and joint/team efforts that are similar in size and scope to those in the PWS. In the event an offeror has no relevant past experience data, offerors are reminded that they may submit the information required for key personnel, major subcontractors, work performed as part of a team or joint venture and other previous forms of its current organization. Experience of the offeror's proposed project manager, other key personnel or subcontractor experience on contracted work similar in scope and effort to this requirement may be considered for those newly formed entities without previous work experience. The intent is to allow firms without prime contract history to provide past experience information. *Contract Number and Date of Award *Name of Customer, Contracting Activity, or Private Company *Contract Type (IDIQ, FFP, CPAF, etc.) *Total Contract Dollar Value, Initial through completion *Period of Performance. *Description of Services *POC (Name, Title, Address, Phone Number, at least two (2) points of contact) *How Work Performed is Relevant to Work Required Under this Contract Percentage of Work Performed by Prime Contractor Quality awards and/or quality certification related to the performance of the contract (a) Recency Assessment: An assessment of the past performance information will be made to determine if it is recent. To be recent, the effort must be ongoing or must have been performed during the past three (3) years from the date of issuance of this solicitation. Past performance information that fails this condition will not be evaluated. (b) Relevancy Assessment: To be relevant, the effort must be similar in nature of work, size, and complexity. The Government will conduct an in depth evaluation of all recent performance information obtained to determine if it is the same or similar in nature, size, and complexity to the services being procured under this solicitation. A relevancy determination of the offeror's (including joint venture partner(s) and major and critical subcontractor(s)) past performance will be made. In determining relevancy for individual contracts, consideration will be given to the effort, or portion of the effort, being proposed by the offeror, teaming partner, or subcontractor whose contract is being reviewed and evaluated. In establishing what is relevant for the acquisition, consideration should be given to what aspects of an offeror's contract history would give the most confidence that the offeror will satisfy the current procurement. The past performance information provided in the offer and obtained from other sources will be used to establish the relevancy of past performance. The offeror shall list all contracts the offeror and major subcontractors have had terminated for default, in whole or part, and any contract that is in the process of being terminated for default, during the past three years. This information is required for any contract, similar or not to the proposed effort, whether or not on the above list. This factor will be evaluated on the basis of the Offeror's past performance during the past three (3) years. The Government will determine Offeror's risk to the Government as it pertains to past performance of past contracts similar in size, scope, and complexity as the work required under this solicitation. Similar past performance from current or previous contracts will be compared with the scope of work as outlined in the Specifications. The Government has the right to verify information provided under this factor. The Government reserves the right to include or exclude from the evaluation of Past Performance References received more than one calendar day after the date and time scheduled for receipt of proposals. It shall be the offeror's responsibility to conduct prospective references to ensure this office receives questionnaires in a timely manner. The offeror may describe previous performance problems and address corrective action and preventive measures implemented to avoid reoccurrence. The Past Performance Evaluation Team will review past performance information and determine the quality and usefulness as it applies to past performance rating. Assigning Ratings. The Past Performance Factor will be assigned one (1) of the rating defined below. Table 2: Past Performance Evaluation Ratings RatingDescription AcceptableBased on the offeror's performance record, the Government has a reasonable expectation that the offeror will successfully perform the required effort, or the offeror's performance record is unknown. UnacceptableBased on the offeror's performance record, the Government has no reasonable expectation that the offeror will be able to successfully perform the required effort. Offerors without a record of relevant past performance or for whom information on past performance is not available or so sparse that no meaningful past performance rating can be reasonably assigned, may not be evaluated favorably or unfavorably on past performance. Therefore, the offeror shall be determined to have unknown past performance. In the context of acceptability/unacceptability, quote mark unknown quote mark shall be considered acceptable (4) Factor III: Price: The Price factor will not be scored or rated. Evaluation of price will be performed using one or more price analysis techniques in FAR 15.404-1(b). Through these techniques the Government will determine whether prices are reasonable, complete and balanced. (a) Options. Pricing submitted for the Offeror Schedule, will be evaluated for price reasonableness. The Government will evaluate the Offeror's total price, to include the base period, first option period, second option period, third option period, fourth option period, and one-half of the fourth option period, using price analysis techniques (See FAR Clause 52.217-8). Pricing must be provided for all line items in order for an offeror to be considered for award. Those offerors not providing pricing for all line items will be removed from consideration for award. The Government will award a single contract to the offeror whose offer represents the Lowest Price Technically Acceptable offer. (b) Unbalanced Pricing. Unbalanced pricing may be evaluated in accordance with FAR 15.404-1(g), as applicable, to assess potential performance risk which could result in unreasonably high prices.
