The Government obligates itself to obtain no less than $2,500 in services. The contracts are anticipated to be awarded in April 2017. After contracts are awarded, work will be issued by negotiated firm-fixed-price task orders. When deciding which Indefinite Delivery contract will be selected to negotiate an order, the Government will consider the following: current capacity to accomplish the order in the required time, unique specialized experience, and quality of performance under the other task orders.

PROJECT INFORMATION: Work primarily includes but is not limited to the range of Civil Engineering services described herein, for minor to major repair, modification, rehabilitation, alternatives and new construction projects primarily in support of the Department of Defense and associated Agencies. The work and type of services will consist primarily of preparation of design analyses, reports and cost estimates; plans and specifications for the site designs of predominantly horizontal infrastructure work. To a lesser degree vertical construction projects may also be in the variety of work assigned. Work may also include charrettes, parametric designs, and facility condition studies. Design and other engineering-related services must be performed by or under the direct supervision of licensed professional Engineers. It is anticipated that task orders under this contract will primarily consist of Military Construction (MILCON) projects (where the AE task orders for MILCON are in total, $400,000 or more) and may also include family housing projects, military "Sustainment, Modernization and Repair" (SRM) type projects, and historical civil, and environmental projects. This Indefinite Delivery Contract will not include projects for MILCON or Family Housing where task orders are in total less than $400,000. This $400,000 threshold DOES NOT apply to SRM, civil or other types of projects. Specifically, task orders may include site and installation utility design including water distribution, storage and pumping, wastewater collection system design for tropical and subarctic environments; hydraulics and hydrologic analysis, storm water collection system design, low impact development; site development, earthwork, grading and drainage; roadway design and traffic engineering; and antiterrorism/force protection, and physical security. Computer-aided drafting (CAD), format of CAD products, understanding and compliance with A/E/C standards will be required. Civil 3D Modeling may be required. Designs will be prepared using US Standard English units of measure, however, selected projects may require metric units. All services shall be performed in accordance with applicable Installation Design Guide, as well as, all applicable codes and criteria required for Government work and all applicable laws, codes and regulations pertinent to accessibility. The awarded contract will be in accordance with Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) (https://www.acquisition.gov/FAR/).

SELECTION CRITERIA: The selection criteria for this solicitation is listed below in descending order of importance. Primary criteria consist of (a) through (e). Criteria (a) and (b) are considered most important and of equal importance; Criteria (c) (d) and (e) are of lesser importance and listed in descending order of importance. Secondary criteria, (f) and (g) will only be used as tie-breakers among firms ranked technically equal using the primary criteria. (a) Specialized experience and technical competence (1) The evaluation will consider the extent of the offeror's specialized experience and technical competence of the prime firm and sub-consultants for engineering services described in paragraph 2 "Project Information." SF330 requirement: Provide within SF 330, Part I, Section F examples of not more than 5 projects completed within the last 5 years that best demonstrate specialized experience and technical competency in the areas listed above in section B, PROJECT INFORMATION. Project experience where the Prime was the lead, and projects where the prime and significant subcontractors proposed for this IDQ requirement worked together, will be given more consideration. Project examples submitted should be of completed projects. All projects cited shall identify design start/complete dates as well as the project size (cost and scope). (SF 330, Part I, Section F). (2) The evaluation will consider the firm's management plan/structure and design quality control procedures. The Management plan and organizational structure will be evaluated to determine the sufficiency of oversight of how task orders will be managed to meet project milestones. Design QC procedures will be evaluated to ascertain its effectiveness in producing quality task order deliverables. SF330 requirement: Provide management plan/structure and design quality control procedures within Part I, Section H (Additional Information). (b) Professional qualifications of the prime firm's staff and sub-consultants to be assigned to the projects The evaluation will consider the extent of the education, training, registration and overall relevant experience of the key personnel identified below. This criterion primarily focuses on the qualifications of the key personnel for the contract and not the quantity of personnel, which is addressed under the "capacity to accomplish the work" criterion. SF330 requirement: The exception is for the Civil Engineering discipline where a maximum of six (6) key personnel may be submitted. Provide a minimum of one (1) individual / up to a maximum of two (2) individuals per discipline for each of the key personnel disciplines identified below. Firms will not be evaluated more favorably for identifying additional Key Personnel beyond those identified here. Identified key personnel will be more highly evaluated if he or she participated in the firm's sample projects submitted in the SF 330 Section F. Use a separate Section E for each individual. Do not generalize professional registrations or certifications but provide specific details. The lead architect or engineer in each discipline must be registered in the appropriate professional field. For purposes of selection criteria, the use of the term "registered" means a Registered Architect or Professional Engineer registered to practice in the particular discipline in a State, the District of Columbia, or an outlying area of the United States. Key personnel are as follows: • PROJECT MANAGERS (U.S. Registered Architect or Engineer) • U.S. REGISTERED CIVIL ENGINEERS • U.S. REGISTERED ARCHITECTS • U.S. REGISTERED STUCTURAL ENGINEERS • U.S. REGISTERED MECHANICAL ENGINEERS • U.S. REGISTERED FIRE PROTECTION ENGINEERS • U.S. REGISTERED ELECTRICAL ENGINEERS • U.S. REGISTERED COMMUNICATION DISTRIBUTION DESIGNERS (RCDD) accredited by Building Industry Consulting Service International (BICSI) and have a current active RCCD registration.

Past performance evaluations will be retrieved through the Government's Past Performance Information Retrieval System (PPIRS) and managed through the Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS). PPIRS is the primary source of information on past performance. Performance evaluations for any significant subconsultants may also be considered. The evaluation will consider past performance from other sources. The relevancy of past performance information will be considered. The more relevant the information, the more weight it carries. NOTE: if no relevant past performance information is available to evaluate, or if the record is so sparse such that no meaningful rating can be reasonably assigned, the offeror will be assigned a rating of neutral and shall not be evaluated favorably or unfavorably. SF330 requirement: Past performance data for example projects presented under Part I, Section F of the SF330 will be considered. Performance evaluations will be queried for all firms. Any credible, documented information on past performance may be submitted, but the Government is not required to seek other information on past performance if none is available through PPIRS.
