Y -- DESIGN/BUILD PROJECTS AND MINOR CONSTRUCTION/SITE PREPARATION SOL F41999-97-R-6015 POC Jose Sauceda Jr., Contract Specialist, (210) 657-5804 The US Air Force has initiated a new program of Signature Brand Food Concepts that will become the standard for casual dining/food service throughout the Air Force. The standards for these concepts have been developed and now must be implemented. This request for proposal covers the two requirements for multiple construction projects of these food concepts at various Air Force Facilities within the Continental United States (CONUS) and overseas European and Pacific locations. The first requirement, referred to as a RETROFIT, is limited to an estimated value of not to exceed $500,000 each with approximately 25-29 projects. The second requirement, referred to as KIOSK implementation, ranging from $25,000 to $50,000 each, for approximately 60-75 projects. Both RETROFIT and KIOSK implementation is anticipated to extend over a 36-month period, will be under the direction of the US Air Force Services Agency (Services Agency) in San Antonio, Texas and will be funded with 100% Non-Appropriated Funds. In this construction program, existing food operations (e.g., Officers' Clubs, Enlisted Clubs, and other Clubs' related facilities) shall be modified and retrofitted with standard components and finishes of the signature brands in a design/build method. RETROFITS will be extensive, requiring alteration of existing facilities to accommodate specific areas (bar, seating, dining room, game room, etc.) to be built by the successful proposer. KIOSK implementation will be less extensive, requiring the successful proposer to prepare an interior space to accept a government-furnished (GF) food kiosk and its GF equipment, and to install such, again in a design/build method. Successful proposer shall submit all necessary drawings, shop drawings, etc. for the complete installation of the retrofits and kiosks and shall be responsible for complete installation. Award of contract for retrofits/kiosks shall be based upon technical merit identified in Section M, Evaluation Factors for Award. Offerors shall submit their proposal in accordance with the instructions provided in Section L of this solicitation. Proposals will then be evaluated according to the factors listed below. The technical evaluation (first phase) will result in the award of Nonappropriated Fund Purchasing Agreements (NPAs), to be issued with no obligation to the AF Services Agency until an actual delivery order is issued. In the second phase of the process, NPA recipients shall compete for award of actual construction requirements based on applicable requirements and area/region. Because of the limited scope of work associated with the kiosks, kiosk projects shall be grouped, whenever feasible, into regional (Europe, Pacific) and time zone (Pacific, Mountain, Central, Eastern) packages for design/build. Delivery orders will then be issued to no more than 1 NPA holder per package for kiosks. Retrofits may be grouped similarly NPAs will be awarded for three years with seven one-year options. During the 3-year implementation period, those NPA holders selected to compete for the requirements shall be asked to submit pricing proposals for each of the area/time zone groups. Delivery orders will be issued per group to the successful offeror. Pricing will be the basis of issuance of the delivery order(s). SYNOPSIS: The Air Force Services Agency is seeking responsible/responsive contractors to support this critical endeavor. Because Air Force job sites and delivery schedules will be identified through an internal selection process during the three year time frame, there may be a need to have contractors working multiple jobs sites that have similar completion dates. The capability of the contractors to install multiple kiosk locations and design/build major retrofits is a major benefit to the Air Force. Offerors shall place an "X" in the appropriate block to indicate requirements and areas they are proposing: A. Requirements: ____ Retrofits; ____ Kiosks B. Areas and Time Zone Regions: (1) CONUS: ___Pacific; ___ Mountain; ___ Central; ___ Eastern (2) OCONUS ___ Pacific (includes Alaska and Hawaii); ___ Europe Evaluation, technical factors listed in relative order of importance: A. Team's design, construction and foodservice experience, B. Team's technical competence -- including resumes of key individuals, C. Team's capability to perform -- including bonding capability, personnel availability, ability to manage multiple projects simultaneousely, proposed methodology to handle multiple projects, D. Team's past performance -- including similarity of previous projects, customer satisfaction on completed or in progress projects of similar scope, team composition (a registered architect must be part of the team), team's history of working together. Request for copies of this solicitation must be recieved not later than 3 October 97. This is a nonappropriated fund purchase and it does not obligate appropriated funds of the United States Government. Non-appropriated funds are generated by the military community through the sale of goods and services and the collection of fees and charges for participation in military community programs. This purchase does not involve federal tax dollars.***** (0265)
