Information shall be provided via a project amendment by the GSA Contracting Officer, Raymond J Porter.

1. The Government will issue a single solicitation covering both phases of the Two-phase Design-Build Selection Procedures set forth in FAR 36.3. In Phase 1 technical qualifications will be evaluated to determine which Offerors will submit proposals for Phase II. Three (3) Offerors will be shortlisted and invited to submit Phase II proposals. Those unsuccessful offerors participating in Phase II will be paid a stipend of up to $50,000 to offset the costs associated with the preparation of required conceptual designs.

2. In Phase II, using the best value trade-off procedures described under 15.101-1 and 15.3, the Government will evaluate the technical and price proposals of the firms short-listed as a result of the Phase 1 selection. Per FAR 52.215-1 (ALT I), Instructions to Offerors-Competitive Acquisition, it is the Government’s prerogative to award a contract without discussions (except clarifications as described in FAR 15.306(a)). Therefore, the Offeror’s initial proposal should contain the Offeror’s best terms from a price and technical standpoint. The Government reserves the right to conduct discussions with those firms identified in the short list, if the Contracting Officer determines discussions are necessary. If the Contracting Officer determines that the number of proposals that would otherwise be in the short list exceeds the number at which an efficient competition can be conducted, the Contracting Officer may limit the number of proposals in the short list to the greatest number that will permit an efficient competition among the most highly rated proposals.

Technical Proposal

Following is a list of evaluation factors that will be used in conjunction with price to identify the offer providing the best value to the Government. There are separate evaluation factors for Phases 1 and 2. Phase I factors will be used to select a short list of the most highly qualified offerors. Price will not be submitted with the Phase I proposals, and it is the intention of the Contracting Officer to select three (3) offerors to submit Phase 2 proposals. The Phase I factors and Phase II factors are listed below:

Phase I
