JUSTIFICATION FOR OTHER THAN FULL & OPEN COMPETITION IN ACCORDANCE WITH FAR 6.3 1. Identification of the Contracting Activity and specific identification of this document as a “Justification for other than full and open competition”: The contracting activity is the General Services Administration (GSA), Public Buildings Service (PBS), Acquisition Management Division (AMD), Program Support Branch (7PQA), 819 Taylor Street, Fort Worth, TX 76102. This document serves as the Justification for Other than Full and Open Competition. 2. Nature and/or description of action being approved: This justification for other than full and open competition is to increase the Maximum Ordering Limitation (MOL) from $700,000,000.00 to $900,000,000.00, an increase of $200,000,000 for the above titled contracts. This is a firm fixed price, Multiple Award, Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract for Construction and Design-Build Construction Services to support the AMD under GSA PBS for all GSA regions. Nine (9) IDIQ contracts were awarded on February 3, 2021, with a shared maximum ordering limitation (MOL) for all contracts set at $700,000,000.00. Region 7 AMD exercised Option III for all the contracts on February 4, 2024. Option III expires on 02/03/2025, and there is one last option remaining under the contracts. Currently, $228,659,912.00 remains out of the $700,000,000.00. This proposed increase in the MOL is intended for the nine (9) National Complex Construction IDIQ contractors to be shared so that additional orders can be placed under the IDIQ contracts. 3. Description of supplies or services required to meet the Agency’s needs (including the estimated value): On February 4, 2021, the Program Support Branch awarded nine (9) National Complex Construction IDIQ contracts to provide general construction and design build services within the states of Arkansas, Louisiana, Oklahoma, New Mexico, and Texas as well as nationally. The negotiated procurements were accomplished by using a Vendor Evaluation Plan which resulted in the award of nine (9) firm-fixed price IDIQ contracts providing best value to the Government. The IDIQ contracts were for a period of one (1) year from the issuance of the awards with four (4) 1- year option periods. All nine (9) IDIQ contracts share a maximum total combined value of $700,000,000.00 over the five (5) years. To date, $471,340,088.00 has been awarded. The remaining available balance of the MOL is $228,659,912.00. In accordance with FAR regulations, the administrative cost of multiple awards and the scope and complexity of the requirement(s) were deemed to be cost efficient or practical to support multiple award IDIQs as there would be enough work to maintain multiple contractors. The expected benefits of making multiple awards Docusign Envelope ID: 9C8C990A-7E88-499B-B459-B6FA6AB3B3D6 outweighed the expected cost in the administration of multiple award contracts. Therefore, multiple awards were deemed to be in the best interest of the Government. The IDIQ contracts are currently in Option III, Option IV remains and will be exercised on or before February 4, 2025, with an end date of February 3, 2026. The additional anticipated financial need is as follows: Current MOL $700,000,000.00 MOL Usage $471,340,088.00 MOL Current Balance $228,659,912.00 Pending Procurements Estimated Costs $350,000,000.00 Estimated Mod Increase (Current Work 10%) $ 47,134,333.30 Estimated Mod Increase (New Procurements 10%) $ 35,000,000.00 Total of Estimated Costs $432,134,333.30 Total of Estimated Costs $432,134,333.30 MOL Current Balance $228,659,912.00 Increase Needed in MOL $203,474,421.30 Due to the anticipated projected procurements, the MOL needs to be increased approximately $200,000,000.00 to cover the above listed projects and estimated additional costs to ensure the Acquisition Management Division will meet the mission of its clients. In accordance with FAR 6.302-2 Unusual and Compelling Urgency, the increase in the MOL will ensure GSA meets the mission of our clients, timely and efficiently. 4. Identification of the statutory authority permitting other than full and open competition. This justification is being requested under the authority at FAR 6.302-2, Unusual and Compelling Urgency. NOTE: See attached JOTFOC document for remainder of information.

Pre-Solicitation Notice for new Regional General Construction with Design Build (DB) Capabilities Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) Multiple Award Contracts (MACs). The General Services A... Pre-Solicitation Notice for new Regional General Construction with Design Build (DB) Capabilities Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) Multiple Award Contracts (MACs). The General Services Administration (GSA), Public Buildings Service (PBS), Greater Southwest Region 7, Acquisition Management Division is the office soliciting and will administer the resulting contracts. The General Services Administration (GSA), Public Buildings Service (PBS), Acquisition Management Division (7PQA) Region 7 has a need for general construction contractors with Design Build (DB) capabilities who can immediately respond with an experienced team in multiple geographic locations within GSA Region 7 and potentially throughout the continental United States (CONUS). The goal of this acquisition is to establish general construction IDIQ multiple award contracts to be utilized by GSA PBS Region 7 to fulfill customer requirements. The Primary Contract Area of performance for Region 7 includes Texas, Arkansas, Louisiana, Oklahoma, and New Mexico. On an occasional basis, work may also include locations in a Secondary Contract Area. The Secondary Contract areas consist of the remainder of the continental United States (CONUS). The Government shall endeavor to utilize this contract to the maximum practical extent for services within the primary and secondary area. However, the Government reserves the right to perform, or have performed by others, any services required within the Primary Contract Area, and doing so shall not breach or otherwise violate this contract. The contract performance period for this acquisition will be one base year with four one-year option periods. The five year period for this contract is the maximum allowed by FAR 17.204(e). The maximum ordering limitation (MOL) will be $500M. The total MOL will be available at award to be utilized over five years if all options are exercised. The contractors must be able to perform general construction with design-build services over $20 million per project. The contractors must be able to quickly mobilize to multiple sites within Region 7, and the contractors may be required to work on multiple task orders simultaneously at multiple sites. The services to be provided from this acquisition will include general construction services which consist of interior and exterior building construction, and repair and alterations, including but not limited to architectural, structural, mechanical, plumbing, electrical, fire safety, elevator, landscaping, site work, exterior renovations, hazardous material abatement, and demolition services. Also included is, but not limited to, earthwork, pavement repair, and other miscellaneous civil work. Projects will be located in a variety of contexts, from remote rural sites to highly urbanized sites and could range from $3,000,000 up to the yearly MOL of $100 million in estimated construction costs. Additionally, any unused portion of the MOL will “roll over” from year to year, until the maximum ordering limit of $500 million over a five year period is expended. The source selection process for this solicitation will neither be based on the Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) nor Tradeoffs. Within the best value continuum, FAR 15.101 defines best value as using any one or a combination of source selection approaches. For the base IDIQ contracts, the Highest Technically Rated Offerors with a Fair and Reasonable Price will determine the best value basis for contract awards. GSA will issue no more than ten IDIQ contracts. This procurement will not involve tradeoff. The Highest Technically Rated, Fair and Reasonable Price approach will best achieve the objective of awarding IDIQ contracts to offerors with the general construction/DB expertise most important to GSA PBS Region 7 and its customer agencies. A hypothetical construction project will be provided as a part of the solicitation and offerors will be required to prepare a price proposal for the project. The government’s evaluation of price will be detailed and meaningful. Price is a significant evaluation factor; if an offeror is identified as a highest rated offeror but the offeror’s proposed price, or final proposed price if negotiations are held, is found to not be fair and reasonable, that offeror will be rejected and not considered for award. Prices proposed for the hypothetical project will be evaluated using price analysis to determine if they are fair and reasonable. The government reserves the right to perform a price realism analysis if determined to be in the best interest of the government, however, the government is not required to conduct price realism. The government intends to award contracts without discussions; however, the government reserves the right to conduct discussions if determined to be in the best interest of the government. Initial proposals must contain the best offer. The government may conduct clarifications, as described in FAR 15.306(a). This procurement is a full-and-open procurement that will be open to both large and small business firms. The firm (if not a small business concern) shall be required to present an acceptable small business subcontracting plan in accordance with FAR Part 19.7, as part of its proposal. The Request for Qualifications (RFQs) will be issued electronically on or about August 14, 2020, at http://www.betasam.gov. A virtual pre-proposal meeting is tentatively scheduled on or about August 21, 2020. After the RFQ has been issued, prospective attendees are encouraged to register their company with the GSA contract specialist via e-mail at shemeka.johnson-jenkins@gsa.gov. The registration (information) submitted to the Contract Specialist should include the firm's name, address and phone number as well as those who will be attending the meeting. This meeting is intended to review the scope of the project and the submittal requirements. The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) Code is 236220. All firms and prime contractors doing business with the Federal Government shall be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) database at www.betasam.gov prior to award of a contract.
