SELECTION CRITERIA
Firms responding to this synopsis will be evaluated to determine the most highly qualified firms to perform the required services in accordance with the selection criteria contained in this synopsis. Failure to comply with instructions, or provide complete information may affect the firm’s evaluation or disqualify the firm from further consideration.
The following selection criteria, listed in descending order of importance, will be used to evaluate the qualification of the AE firms:
Criterion 1 - Professional Qualifications of the Key Personnel (SF330, Part I, Sections E & G):
Basis of Evaluation: Firms will be evaluated on the professional licensing, education, qualifications, and experience of the proposed key personnel in providing services to accomplish the tasks required under this contract, including participation in example projects as outlined in the SF330, Part 1, Section G.
The following Key Personnel must be included:
A limit of 24 resumes will be considered to demonstrate professional qualifications in each of the areas. The professional qualifications of the prime contractor’s key personnel will be weighted more heavily than that of the team sub-contractors. The qualifications of the offeror’s staff proposed key personnel shall include the environmental engineering fields of potable water; industrial and domestic wastewater; and storm water.
More favorable consideration may be given to any of the following, which are NOT listed in any order of precedence:
Submission Requirements: SF330, Part I, Sections E. Complete Section E for each Key Personnel person being proposed that will demonstrate their professional qualifications and experience for the resultant contract. Resumes are limited to two (2) single sided or one (1) double sided page and should indicate: professional registration, certification, licensure and/or accreditation in appropriate disciplines; cite recent (within the past 5 years) project-specific experience in work relevant to the services required under this contract; and indicate proposed role in this contract. For Section E, Block 13, specify the proposed role of the person being proposed for the resultant contract. Provide a maximum of five (5) projects for each resume. Experience that is not related to the work described in this synopsis should not be included. Key Personnel experience may include experience gained while not employed by the prime/subconsultant firm.
Criterion 2- Specialized Experience/Technical Competence (SF330, Part I, Section F):
Basis of Evaluation: Firms will be evaluated on specialized experience in performance of services similar to those anticipated under this contract and technical competence of the firm or its particular staff members addressing federal, state, territory and local regulatory requirements, and overseas environmental governing standards, and Navy and other applicable DoD instructions of the Naval Facilities Engineering Systems Command, Pacific (NAVFAC PAC) area of responsibility (AOR) in the following environmental services:
Firm’s specialized experience in relevant projects that include ALL of the following four (4) features listed below may be evaluated more favorably. All features do not have to be within a single project scope. Offerors that do not demonstrate experience in ALL four (4) individual features may be evaluated less favorably.
Features:
More favorable consideration may be given by demonstrating any of the following, which are NOT listed in any order of precedence:
Submission Requirements: Provide a maximum of seven (7) projects that best demonstrates the offeror’s experience on recent, relevant projects completed or substantially completed (at least 85%) within the past five (5) years of the issuance of this synopsis. Sufficient information to determine the percent complete of the project must be included in the project description or the project will not be considered. If more than the maximum number of projects are submitted, the Government will only evaluate projects up to the maximum number authorized in the order submitted.
All projects provided in the SF330 must be completed by the actual office/branch/regional office/individual team member proposed to manage and perform work under this contract. Projects not meeting this requirement will be excluded from consideration in the evaluation. To enable verification, firms should include the Unique Entity Identifier number along with each firm name in the SF330 Part 1, Section F, block 25, “Firm Name” Include a contract number or project identification number in block 21. Include an e-mail address and phone number for the point of contact in block 23(c). In block 24, include in the project description the contract period of performance, award contract value, current contract value, and a summary of the work performed that demonstrates relevance to specialized experience as outlined above. For projects performed as a subcontractor or a joint venture involving different partners, specifically indicate the value of the work (percentage) performed as a subcontractor or by those firms proposed for this contract, and identify the specific roles and responsibilities performed as a subcontractor or by those firms on the project rather than the work performed on the project as a whole. If the project description does not clearly delineate the work performed by the entity/entities offering/teaming on this contract, the project could be eliminated from consideration.
Projects shall be submitted on the SF330, Part I, Section F and shall be completed or substantially completed projects. Projects not substantially completed will be excluded from evaluation consideration. For submittal purposes, a task order on an IDIQ contract is considered a project, as is a stand-alone contract award. Do not submit an IDIQ contract as an example project. Instead, list relevant task orders or stand-alone contract awards that fit within the definition above. The Government will not evaluate information provided for an IDIQ contract. Examples of project work submitted that do not conform to this requirement will not be evaluated.
The SF330, Section F, shall submit no more than one (1) double-sided page per recent, relevant project. If more than one (1) double sided page is submitted, the Government will not consider the information on the additional pages.
All information for Criterion 2 should be submitted in the SF330, Part I, Section F. The Government WILL NOT consider information submitted in addition to Part 1, Section F in evaluation of Criterion 2.
NOTES: If the firm is a joint venture, projects performed by the joint venture should be submitted; however, if there are no projects performed by the joint venture, projects may be submitted for either joint venture partner. If a firm is utilizing or relying on experience or past performance information from affiliates/subsidiaries/parent companies/LLC/LTD member companies (where the name of the entity is not exactly as stated on the SF330), the proposal shall clearly demonstrate that the affiliate/subsidiary/parent firm/LLC/LTD member companies will have meaningful involvement in the performance of the contract in order for the experience, past performance, and/or key personnel information of the affiliate/subsidiary/parent firm/LLC/LTD member companies to be considered. The proposal shall state the specific resources (e.g., workforce, management, facilities, or other resources) that the affiliate/subsidiary/parent/LLC/LTD member companies will commit toward the performance of the contract. If meaningful involvement is not demonstrated in the proposal, the affiliate, subsidiary or parent company’s experience or past performance and/or key personnel information will not be considered.
A subcontractor’s experience and past performance will not be given the same level of consideration as that of either a prime contractor or a joint venture partner/LLC member because there is no direct legal relationship between the Government and a subcontractor.
Criterion 3 - Past Performance (SF330, Part I, Section H):
Basis of Evaluation: Firms will be evaluated on past performance with Government agencies and private industry in terms of work quality, compliance with schedules, and stakeholder/customer satisfaction of DoD contracts. Evaluating past performance and experience will include information provided in Past Performance Questionnaires (PPQs) or CPARS for Criterion 2 projects and may include customer inquiries, Government databases, and other information available to the Government including contacts with points of contact in other criteria. NOTE: Past performance information for projects listed under Criterion 2 may be given greater weight. Preference will be on past performance on contracts with Government agencies.
Submission Requirements: SUBMIT A COMPLETED CPARS EVALUATION FOR EACH PROJECT UNDER CRITERION 2, as an attachment. IF A COMPLETED CPARS EVALUATION IS NOT AVAILABLE, the Past Performance Questionnaire (PPQ) (Attachment (A)) included in this notice is provided for the firm or its team members to submit to the client for each project included under Criterion 2, Specialized Experience/Technical Competence. DO NOT SUBMIT A PPQ WHEN A COMPLETED CPARS IS AVAILABLE.
IF A CPARS EVALUATION IS NOT AVAILABLE, ensure correct phone numbers and email addresses are provided for the client point of contact. Completed PPQs should be submitted with your SF330. If the firm is unable to obtain a completed PPQ from a client for a project(s) before the response date set forth in this notice, firms should complete and submit with their responses the first page of the PPQ (Attachment (A)), which will provide contract and client information for the respective project(s). Firms may submit a PPQ previously submitted under a different Notice/RFP (legible copies are acceptable) as long as it is on the same form as posted with this Synopsis. Firms should follow up with clients/references to ensure timely submittal of questionnaires. If requested by the client, questionnaires may be submitted directly to the Government's point of contact, NAVFAC Pacific, Code CON75, Attn: Kylee Chun via email at kylee.k.chun.civ@us.navy.mil, prior to the response date. Firms shall not incorporate by reference into their response PPQs or CPARS previously submitted in response to other A/E services procurements. However, this does not preclude the Government from utilizing previously submitted PPQ information in the past performance evaluation. PPQs shall not be from a prime contractor to a subconsultant or a subconsultant to a prime contractor. PPQs shall be from the customer or the owner of the project.
Firms may provide any information on problems encountered and the corrective actions taken on projects submitted under Criterion 2, Specialized Experience/Technical Competence. Firms may also address any adverse past performance issues. Information shall not exceed two (2) double-sided pages (or four (4) single-sided pages) in total.
In addition to the above, the Government may review any other sources of relevant information in the evaluation of past performance. Other sources may include, but are not limited to, past performance information retrieved through the CPARS using all CAGE/Unique Entity Identifier (UEI) numbers of team members (partnership, joint venture, teaming partners, former firms, or parent company/subsidiary/affiliate) identified in the SF330, inquiries of owner representatives, Federal Awardee Performance and Integrity Information System (FAPIIS), SAM.gov, and any other known sources not provided by the firm. While the Government may elect to consider data from other sources, the burden of providing detailed, current, accurate and complete past performance information rests with the firm.
Awards, letters of commendation, certificates of appreciation, etc. shall not be submitted and will not be considered in the evaluation.
