THE GOVERNMENT INTENDS TO AWARD WITHOUT DISCUSSIONS. THEREFORE, OFFERORS' INITIAL PROPOSALS SHOULD CONTAIN OFFERORS' BEST TERMS, FROM A COST OR PRICE AND TECHNICAL STANDPOINT. The work to be acquired is an IDIQ, Multiple Award Construction Contract(s) (MACC) for General Contractors -- Industrial Buildings and Warehouses (SIC 1541).

The total maximum value for the base term and all options for the aggregate of all IDIQ contracts awarded as a result of this RFP, shall not exceed $150,000,000. Task orders are anticipated to be over $3,000,000. However, the task order minimum will be increased to over $10,000,000 upon the pending reinstatement of the Small Business Set-Aside and award of a Small Business Set-Aside MACC for SIC 1541. Contractors targeted for this procurement include general contractors, primarily engaged in the construction (including new work, additions, alterations, remodeling, and repair) of industrial buildings and warehouses. In support of the design-build strategies, the contractor shall employ the services of an architect/engineering professional, experienced in the coordination of multi-discipline architectural/engineering design efforts in all aspects of general building for new and renovation projects, including comprehensive interior design and lead and asbestos abatement. Individual task orders/projects may also require incorporation of sustainable features. Multiple design teams may be proposed for individual task orders in order to satisfy a variety of building types, projected to be awarded during the term of the contract. Architectural/Engineering firms, their subsidiaries, and affiliates, that were involved at the RFP or design stage of a project may not be proposed or used on the relative project. NOTE: If offeror(s) have formed a joint venture their joint venture agreement shall be submitted with their proposal. If offeror(s) have formed a teaming/partnering agreement arrangement their agreement shall be submitted with their proposal. The agreements shall demonstrate the relationship between firms and identify contractual relationships and authorities to bind the firm/joint venture/team/partnership. The joint venture or teaming/partnering agreements will not be evaluated or rated. However, it will be utilized as a reference tool in determining validity of and/or risk associated with this or any other factor in the proposal. The agreements will NOT count in the page limitation. Architectural/Engineering professionals shall be conducting business from an established, professional business office. The Contractor's architect/engineering team shall accomplish all discipline coordination. The Government will not coordinate the work for the contractor. After award of the initial contract, each awardee shall be provided a fair opportunity to be considered for each task order, except under those circumstances described in FAR 16.505(b)(2). Award factors will vary, depending on the unique requirements of each task order and may be competed on the basis of price, best value or technically acceptable, low-price selection procedures. The subsequent task orders may be performance-oriented tasks, requiring minimal design, may occasionally be complex, requiring design development for design-build construction, or a combination thereof. They will be scoped by the Government/Contractor team and may not have traditional plans and specifications, but may include sketches, requests for catalog cuts, and other submittals. The salient requirements of the task order will be scoped by the Government/Contractor team in order to develop a mutually agreed upon Statement of Work. The Contracting Officer will indicate the exact location of each task order. The awarded task order will be a performance scoped, firm fixed price task, with a specific completion date. Should any of the IDIQ contractors be unable to competitively secure a task order to meet the minimum guarantee, award factors may be modified in order to ensure each participated contractor is awarded tasks orders, meeting the minimum guarantee. All contractors will be encouraged to participate in walk-through, exploratory scoping investigations and to subsequently submit their proposals. Participation in the pre-proposal conference or walk through exploratory scoping investigations (site visits), will be the responsibility of the offeror and are not directly reimbursable by the Government. The best value contractor will receive the seed project, with award. Upon receipt of additional projects, within the first year, award will be made to the second, third, and any additional successful contractors in succession, based on best value.
