CONTRACT INFORMATION: The Seattle District Corps of Engineers has a requirement for an Architect-Engineer (A-E) Indefinite-Delivery, Indefinite-Quantity (IDIQ) Contract for Electrical and Mechanical Design and Construction Support Services at Joint Base Lewis-McChord, Washington. This procurement will be evaluated using Brooks Act (PL-92-582) procedures and FAR Part 36. Firms will be selected for negotiation based on demonstrated competence and qualifications for the required work. The scope and purpose of this IDIQ contract will be for the preparation of design-bid-build and design-build solicitations involving electrical and mechanical disciplines for new construction as well as renovation and repair projects; electrical and mechanical system studies; and related construction management services for Joint Base Lewis-McChord (JBLM), Washington. Individual Task Orders to be assigned under this Contract will identify specific requirements. The effective period of the Contract shall be a One-Year Base Period with the option to extend for four (4) additional One-Year Option Periods. Work under this IDIQ Contract will be issued by Firm-Fixed Price (FFP) Task Orders. The Contract will have an individual Task Order limit of $500,000 per Task Order and the maximum value of all work issued under the Contract will be limited to $5,975,000 over five years. Multiple Task Orders may be awarded with similar completion schedules and overlapping delivery dates. The Government makes no representation as to the number of Task Orders or the actual amount of work to be ordered. Contractors are not guaranteed work in excess of the minimum guarantee. Firms that design or prepare specifications for a construction Contract or Task Order issued under the resulting Contract are prohibited from participating in the subsequent construction. This limitation also applies to subsidiaries/affiliates of the firm. The primary North American Industrial Classification System (NAICS) Code for this acquisition is 541330, with a small business size standard of $15M. For the purposes of this procurement, a concern is considered a small business if its average annual gross receipts are $15 million or less over the last three fiscal years.

SELECTION CRITERIA: The selection criteria for this particular procurement are as follows: (A) Specialized Experience and Technical Competence (SF 330, Section F); (B) Professional Qualifications (SF 330, Section E); The remaining Criteria are to be addressed in SF 330, Section H; (C) Past Performance; (D) Capacity; (E) Knowledge of the Locality; (F) Extent of Small Business Participation; (G) Geographical Proximity; and (H) Equitable Distribution of Work. Criteria (A) through (E) are PRIMARY criteria and will be evaluated for all firms. Criteria (F) through (H) are SECONDARY criteria and shall only be used as tie-breakers should the application of criteria numbers (A) through (E) result in firms being rated as equal.

Evaluating Past Performance may include information provided by the firm, customer inquiries, Government databases, and publicly available sources. Failure to provide requested data, accessible points of contact, or valid phone numbers could result in a firm being considered less qualified. In evaluating an Offeror's capability, the Government may consider how well the offeror complied with these instructions. All projects provided in the SF 330 must be completed by the office/branch/individual team member actually performing the work under this Contract; projects not performed by the office/branch/individual team member will be excluded from evaluation consideration. FIRMS SLATED AS MOST HIGHLY QUALIFIED: To assist the Government in selecting the most highly qualified contractor, those firms slated as highly qualified may be interviewed or asked to submit supplemental responses. PRIMARY CRITERIA: SF 330, PART 1, SECTION F, CRITERION (A) SPECIALIZED EXPERIENCE and TECHNICAL COMPETENCE of the proposed firm. Submission Requirements: For the proposed team, provide a maximum of ten (10) specific, completed projects.
