INDEFINITE DELIVERY TYPE ARCHITECT ENGINEER (A-E) CONTRACT FOR THE NATIONAL GUARD BUREAU IN SUPPORT OF THE AIR AND ARMY NATIONAL GUARD HORIZONTAL CONSTRUCTION PROGRAMS THROUGHOUT THE REGION 02 CONTRACT INFORMATION: The National Guard Bureau is soliciting for Non-Personal Architect-Engineer (A-E) Services in accordance with Public Law 92-582 (Selection of A-E Statute) and Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Part 36. As a result of this announcement, the National Guard Bureau intends to award a target of �Two (2) Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contracts to Small Businesses, in accordance with DFARS 219.502-1(2) and �provide Horizontal A-E services in support of Air National Guard (ANG) and Army National Guard (ARNG) mission requirements located throughout Region 02, which includes Alabama (AL), Arkansas (AR), Florida (FL), Georgia (GA), Indiana (IN), Kansas (KS), Kentucky (KY), Louisiana (LA), Mississippi (MS), Missouri (MO), North Carolina (NC), Oklahoma (OK), South Carolina (SC), Tennessee (TN), and Texas (TX). The total capacity of the two (2) contracts is $20M.� This capacity will be shared among all firms. The Government may award more than two (2) contracts depending on the source selection decision regarding how many firms are considered the most highly qualified per the 2014 Selection of A&E Contracts Act selection procedures.� Each IDIQ will be for a five (5) year ordering period from the date of award of all contracts.� Guidelines for competition of task orders:�� All A-E task order requirements will be competed among all IDIQ contract holders. All firms responding to the announcement will be required to identify and state the words, ""Small Business"", after the solicitation number in PART I, A, Block 3 of Standard Form 330.� No one firm will receive more than one award as a result of this solicitation. The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code for this action is 541330. �The Small Business size standard is $16.5M in average annual receipts of a business�s latest five (5) fiscal years. The A-E firm must be capable of responding to and working on multiple task orders concurrently. These are not requirements contracts.� The contract will consist of two (2) ordering periods; one (1) ordering period will be for five (5) years and one (1) ordering period for six (6) months with a total contract ceiling of $20M for the entire program. Total contract period shall not exceed five (5) calendar years and six (6) months.� The minimum total fee guaranteed to each contract awardee is $2,500.00. Order limitations are as follows:� The Contractor is not obligated to honor (1) any order for a single item in excess of $7M or (2) any order for a combination of items in excess of $10M. Work will be issued by negotiated firm-fixed price task orders. Task orders will be primarily for�projects with a construction value typically between�$180K�and $16M, however, as required, larger and/or smaller projects may be executed.� Work will be issued by negotiated firm-fixed price task orders. Projects to be designed are not yet determined and funds (except those reserved for the minimum fee guarantee) are not presently available. The selection of A-E firms is based on professional qualifications necessary for the performance of the required services (rather than competitive bidding procedures). All A-E firms are cautioned to review the restrictions of FAR 9.5 Organizational and Consultant Conflicts of Interest and FAR 36.209 Construction Contracts with Architect-Engineer Firms. Any A-E firm that prepares a Design-Build Request for Proposal for a particular project will be restricted from participating in any contract or task order for the Design-Build of that particular project. All interested Architect-Engineers are reminded that, under the provisions of PL 95-507, they will be expected to place subcontracts to the maximum practicable extent consistent with the efficient performance of the contract with small and small disadvantaged firms. Small Business firms that are selected under the Small Business set aside must perform 50 percent of the contract performance by the prime or a similarly situated Small Business subcontractor in accordance with Deviation 2020-O008. This is a multiple award effort with the most-highly qualified firm in the Small Business group receiving their RFPPs first. Once that process is complete, the next most highly qualified firm will be provided their RFPP, and so on. In accordance with 40 USC 11, Selection of Architect and Engineers, the negotiation process will continue until an agreement is reached and all contracts are awarded. PROJECT INFORMATION: Anticipated A-E services for Region 3 may include but are not be limited to performance of planning, and program support; A-E investigative and design services including development of construction documents; construction support; engineering and environmental studies, National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) documentation; investigations and surveys in support of the Air and Army National Guard Programs.

Criteria D �Past Performance (SF330, Part I, Section H): Firms must provide relevant past performance in the accomplishment of similar work. Firms must submit information for relevant contracts and subcontracts including the name, address, and telephone number of references. Relevancy is defined in the DOD guide, as it pertains to the collection and use of past performance, as information that has a logical connection with the matter under consideration and application period. Submit information for all relevant contracts and subcontracts started or completed within the past six (6) years measured from the date of this notice. The six (6) years requirement is for the portion of the professional services (i.e. design efforts). Projects must be at least B1/65% designed for Type A/B and at a minimum 50% complete on construction for Type C. Firms may include supporting information in the proposal, such as letters of commendation from clients, past performance on recent similar contracts, information on problems encountered in prior contracts, and actions taken to remedy unsatisfactory performance. Past performance on contracts with Government agencies and private industry regarding quality, cost control, and timeliness of work will be reviewed.

List construction contractors with references from within the specified region for whom you have been contracted with as the Designer of Record on a Design-Build project, or for whom you have been contracted for Type C/construction administration services by a third party. Criteria F � Secondary Criteria THE FOLLOWING SECONDARY CRITERIA WILL BE USED AS A TIEBREAKER, IF NECESSARY: The firm shall provide all data for these secondary criteria on Part I, Section H, of the SF330. 1. Volume of Past DOD Contracts awarded to the firm during the previous 12 months: Offerors shall provide the volume of work awarded by DOD agencies during the previous 12 months. The volume of work shall be demonstrated in a table format and be categorized by contract, task order, project award, completion dates, and design fee dollar amount. Work previously awarded to the firm by DOD will be reviewed to effect an equitable distribution of contracts among equally qualified firms. Data from the Federal Procurement Data System (FPDS) may be also utilized by the Government. 2. Superior Performance Evaluations on recently completed DoD contracts. Performance with ratings of exceptional will be considered as Superior Performance Evaluations. 3. The extent to which potential contractors identify and commit to small business and to small disadvantaged business (SDB) where the NAICS Industry Subsector of the subcontracted effort is one in which use of an evaluation factor or subfactor for participation of SDB concerns is authorized (see FAR 19.201(b)), and to historically black college or university and minority institution performance as subcontractors. The extent of commitment shall comply with the requirements of FAR 52.219-8. Offerors demonstrating a greater commitment to small business participation will be evaluated more favorably under this criteria. 4. Geographic Proximity within the locations for Horizontal Region 02: Firms based in or having branch offices in the states of Alabama (AL), Arkansas (AR), Florida (FL), Georgia (GA), Indiana (IN), Kansas (KS), Kentucky (KY), Louisiana (LA), Mississippi (MS), Missouri (MO), North Carolina (NC), Oklahoma (OK), South Carolina (SC), Tennessee (TN), and Texas (TX) with core disciplines (full-service) including civil, geotechnical, electrical, environmental, and structural engineers, and surveyors working in the same office or within a proximity of fewer than 50 miles from the states within this region will be considered as meeting the requirement for geographical proximity. CRITERIA RATINGS: Technical criteria described above (A, B, C, E, and F) will be assigned one of the following adjectival ratings: �� �������� ���BLUE (Outstanding) SF330 Proposal meets requirements and indicates an exceptional approach and understanding of the requirements and contains multiple strengths, and the risk of unsuccessful performance is low � PURPLE (Good) SF330 Proposal indicates a thorough approach and understanding of the requirements and contains at least one strength, and the risk of unsuccessful performance is low to moderate. � GREEN (Acceptable) SF330 Proposal meets requirements and indicates an adequate approach and understanding of the requirements, and the risk of unsuccessful performance is no worse than moderate. � YELLOW (Marginal) SF330 Proposal has not demonstrated an adequate approach and understanding of the requirements and/or risk of unsuccessful performance is high. � RED (Unacceptable) � SF330 Proposal does not meet the requirements of the synopsis advertised on Contracting Opportunities, and thus contains one or more unacceptable deficiencies, and/or risk of unsuccessful performance. The proposal is non-awardable. The following adjectival relevance and performance confidence ratings will be used to evaluate the Past Performance criteria (D): Relevance Ratings Very Relevant - Present/past performance effort involved essentially the same scope and magnitude of effort and complexities this solicitation requires. Relevant - Present/past performance effort involved similar scope and magnitude of effort and complexities this solicitation requires. Somewhat Relevant - Present/past performance effort involved some of the scope and magnitude of effort and complexities this solicitation requires. Not Relevant - Present/past performance effort involved little or none of the scope and magnitude of effort and complexities this solicitation requires. Performance Confidence Ratings Substantial Confidence - Based on the offeror�s recent/relevant performance record, the Government has a high expectation that the offeror will successfully perform the required effort. Satisfactory Confidence - Based on the offeror�s recent/relevant performance record, the Government has a reasonable expectation that the offeror will successfully perform the required effort. Neutral - No recent/relevant performance record is available or the offeror�s performance record is so sparse that no meaningful confidence assessment rating can be reasonably assigned. The offeror may not be evaluated favorably or unfavorably on the factor of past performance. Limited Confidence - Based on the offeror�s recent/relevant performance record, the Government has a low expectation that the offeror will be able to successfully perform the required effort. No Confidence - Based on the offeror�s recent/relevant performance record, the Government does not expect that the offeror will be able to successfully perform the required effort. ENFORCEABILITY OF PROPOSAL: The proposal must set forth full, accurate, and complete information as required by this announcement. By submission of the offer, the Offeror agrees that all items proposed (if applicable e.g., key personnel, subcontractors, etc.) will be utilized for the duration of the contract and any substitutions shall require prior Contracting Officer's approval. The award decision for this contract will be based, in part, on an evaluation of the key personnel and/or subcontractors the Contractor included in its proposal for the positions and/or items of subcontracted work identified in the proposal. The Contractor agrees these key personnel and/or subcontractors will be employed as described in its proposal and no substitutes will be employed without the prior written approval of the Contracting Officer or Administrative Contracting Officer. The Contractor further agrees that any proposed substitutes shall meet or exceed the qualifications of the original personnel and/or subcontractors. If the Contractor�s proposal did not name a subcontractor for an identified item of work, the Contractor will not be allowed to subcontract that item of work without priorapproval of the Contracting Officer or Administrative Contracting Officer. ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS: Indicate in Section C.11 if the prime has worked with the team members in the past six (6) years. In Block G-26, along with the name, include the firm with which the person is associated. Part II is required for each branch office of the Prime Firm and any Subcontractors that will have a key role in the proposed contract. A firm will not be considered if it�s SF330 Part I is not signed, unless the SF330 Part I is accompanied by a signed cover letter or a current (within 3 years) signed SF330 Part II. If a firm does not submit an SF330 Part II with its SF330 Part I, or have one on file, it will not be considered (FAR 36.603(b)). This is not a request for a price proposal. NOTE: To avoid a conflict of interest, any contractor proposing as a prime may not have a subcontractor who is also proposing as a prime. As required by acquisition regulations, interviews to discuss prospective contractors' qualifications for the contracts will be conducted only for those firms considered most highly qualified after submittal review by the selection board. Interviews may be in-person and will be scheduled after the final selection board has determined the most highly qualified firms. Because we do not know the number of offers that will need to be reviewed, the timeframe for scheduling is uncertain but is anticipated to be at least 45 days from the close of the submittal package due date. Small Business Firms submitting a proposal under the Small Business category are required to meet the requirements of 52.219-14, Limitations on Subcontracting (Deviation 2020-O0008) (e) (1), which states �By submission of an offer and execution of a contract, the Contractor agrees that in performance of a contract assigned a NAICS code for, (1) Services (except construction), it will not pay more than 50 percent of the amount paid by the Government for contract performance to subcontractors that are not simil...
