Painting includes 20-year paint unless indicated as "regular" paint. Projects assigned to these IDIQ contracts will use the Solicitation Order Concept (SOC) approach to scope and price the work. After award of the initial contract to three contractors, they will compete for delivery orders based on either best value or low price technically acceptable to the government through Government/Contractor Team cooperative scoping of the work. Each contract will be for one base year and four (4) one (1) year options. Eachoption year is estimated at $4,000,000.00. Total estimated value for all three contracts is not to exceed $20,000,000.00. The three Best Value contractors will be selected for the award of either the seed project or the award of one of the two contracts with a minimum guarantee of $10,000.00. The first IDIQ construction contract of the three will be awarded with a firm fixed price as the seed project. This procurement will consist of Two (2) Phases. Phase I: Proposers will be evaluated on (1) Corporate Experience and Past Performance; (2) Financial and Management Systems; (3) Capability of Key Personnel. The highest rated proposers, a maximum of eight proposers, will advance to Phase II. The government will then request the Phase II proposal. Phase II: Qualified proposers will be evaluated on (1) Management and Technical Approach and (2) Cost/Price for the seed project. The government reserves the right to reject any or all proposals at any time prior to award, to negotiate with any or all proposers, to award the contract to other than the proposers submitting the lowest total price, and to award to the proposers submitting the proposal determined by the government to be the most advantageous to the government. PROPOSERS ARE ADVISED AN AWARD MAY BE MADE WITHOUT DISCUSSION OR ANY CONTACT CONCERNING THE PROPOSALS RECEIVED. Therefore, proposals should be submitted initially on the most FAVORABLE terms. FIRMS SUBMITTING TECHNICAL AND PRICE PROPOSALS WILL BE NOT BE COMPENSTED. As part of the pricing for Phase II, the contractors will be required to participate with the government in an on-site scope meeting for the proposed seed project and all others for subsequent delivery orders. The minimum guarantee of $10,000.00 will be met for the first of the three IDIQ contracts, when awarded. The second contract, N62467-99-D-0926, and the third contract, N62467-99-D-0927, will be awarded at the same time with a minimum guarantee of $10,000.00 and selection based on the same criteria at the first selection. All three contractors will competitively bid on subsequent delivery orders. These subsequent projects will be non-complex performance oriented tasks requiring minimal design. They will be scoped by the government/Contractor team and will not have traditional plans and specifications but may include sketches and requests for catalog cuts or others submittals. The salient requirements of the Delivery Order will be scoped by the government/Contractors team in order to develop a mutually agreed-upon statement of work. Award factors will vary depending on the unique requirements of each Delivery Order, however pricing will weigh heavily. The awarded Delivery Order will be a performance-scoped, firm fixed price task with a specific competition date. Should the second or third IDIQ contractor be unable to competitively secure a Delivery Order to meet the minimum guarantee, award factors may be modified to insure each participating contractor is awarded Delivery Orders meeting the minimum guarantee. All three contractors will be required to participate in all SOC walk-throughs and submit proposals. Failure to participate responsibly in walk- throughs and submit proposals on Delivery Orders may result in the government not exercising the option to extend the contract for an additional year. Only the three selected Contractors will be permitted to propose on the Delivery Orders. Proposals from other contractors will not be accepted. A minimum of two proposals will satisfy the competitive requirements of SOC and preclude the necessity of soliciting for a replacement contractor if for any reason one the contracts is terminated or one of the proposers is not able to participate in the process. Failure to participate responsibly in the delivery order process may result in forfeiture of the minimum guarantee amount.
