In accordance with FAR 52.217-7, Option for Increased Quantity – Separately Priced Line Item, the Government may exercise the option by written notice to the Contractor within 365 days of contract award. The magnitude of this project is estimated between $100,000,000 and $250,000,000. THE NORTH AMERICAN INDUSTRY CLASSIFICATION SYSTEM (NAICS) CODE IS 236220 AND AVERAGE ANNUAL RECEIPTS IS $39.5 MILLION OVER THE PAST THREE YEARS. The contract completion period is anticipated to be 941 calendar days. A sources sought notice (N6274220SS001) for this procurement was posted on 18 February 2020 on the beta System for Award Management (SAM) website and a market survey was conducted that included an assessment of relevant qualifications and capabilities of potentially qualified firms. As a result of the market research analysis, a determination was made to solicit this procurement on an unrestricted basis inviting full and open competition. The NAVFAC Pacific small business office concurs with this decision. This is a source selection procurement requiring the submission of both non-price and price proposals. Large business concerns will be required to submit a subcontracting plan as part of the proposal. This solicitation will utilize the tradeoff source selection process in accordance with FAR 15.101 and FAR Subpart 15.3. All technical factors, when combined, are considered of equal importance to Past Performance. The factors are: Factor 1 – Experience, Factor 2 – Past Performance, Factor 3 – Safety, and Factor 4 – Small Business Participation. Contract award will be made to that responsible offeror whose offer, conforming to the solicitation, is determined to be the most advantageous to the Government considering price and non-price evaluation factors. For evaluation of experience and past performance, a relevant construction project is defined as a facility that is 10,000 square feet or larger and includes at least one (1) of the following individual features: (1) Precision Cooling System. New construction or replacement of a chiller type technology cooling system engineered specifically for data center/electronic/IT networking environments. Projects submitted which reference comfort cooling systems which are engineered primarily for the intermittent use required to maintain a comfortable environment for people in facilities will not be considered. Projects submitted to demonstrate Precision Cooling System will only be considered if the work was performed by the specific entity proposed for the Precision Cooling System under the resultant contract. (2) Uninterruptable Power Supply System. New construction or replacement of an Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) system that is 225 kVA size or more. Projects submitted to demonstrate UPS System experience will only be considered if the work was performed by the specific entity proposed for the UPS System. (3) Clean Agent Fire Suppression System. New construction or replacement of a clean agent fire extinguishing system and releasing system, including all mechanical, controls and electrical components necessary for a complete and operating clean agent fire suppression system. Projects submitted to demonstrate Clean Agent Fire Suppression System experience will only be considered if the work was performed by the specific entity proposed for the Clean Agent Fire Suppression System. Projects submitted to demonstrate relevant construction individual features, i.e., (1) Precision Cooling System, (2) Uninterruptable Power Supply System, and (3) Clean Agent Fire Suppression System, will only be considered if the work was performed by the specific entity proposed to perform that type of work in this contract. If the Offeror self-performed the relevant construction individual features, i.e., (1) Precision Cooling System, (2) Uninterruptable Power Supply System, and (3) Clean Agent Fire Suppression System, then the Offeror must confirm that it will self-perform the same relevant individual feature(s) in order to be considered. Projects submitted shall collectively demonstrate experience in all three (3) individual features: (1) Precision Cooling System, (2) Uninterruptable Power Supply System, and (3) Clean Agent Fire Suppression System. Failure to demonstrate experience in all three (3) individual features shall be considered a deficiency and an Unacceptable rating will be assigned for this factor. Individual features do not have to be within any single project scope. All projects submitted to demonstrate experience must have been completed or substantially completed within the past ten (10) years from the date of issuance of the Request for Proposal (RFP). “Substantially completed” is defined as being at least 90% physically complete.
