Information on Proposal Submission: The Government will use source selection procedures in FAR Part 15 to evaluate proposal packages.

The best value continuum concept evaluates past performance, technical factors, and price through a tradeoff process and other procedures described in the solicitation. The Government reserves the right to make awards without discussions. Therefore, offerors should submit proposals that are acceptable without additional explanation or information as the Government may evaluate and make a final decision for award solely on the basis of the initial proposal submitted by offerors. Furthermore, the Government may determine the acceptability of a proposal based on the initial proposal submitted by offerors. Offerors are required to submit a technical proposal package and a price proposal package. The Government may establish a competitive range comprised of the most highly rated proposals. The competitive range may also exclude highly rated proposals that may otherwise be included in the competitive range if it is necessary to achieve efficiency in competition among the most highly rated proposals. The Government may establish a competitive range of one if it is clear from the initial evaluation process which proposal represents the best value to the Government. In the Government's evaluation of proposals, the non-price factors, when combined, are approximately equal to price. Technical Volume: The evaluation factors that comprise of the technical volume are as follows: (1) company's past performance; (2) relevant experience of key personnel / qualifications; (3) quality management; (4) construction management; and (5) project schedule. The factors for quality management and construction management have subfactors considered in the evaluation. The non-price evaluation factors are weighted as follows: Company's Past Performance - 20% Relevant Experience of Key Personnel / Qualifications - 20% Quality Management - 20% Subfactor 3.1 Quality Control - 10% Subfactor 3.2 Quality Assurance- 10% Construction Management - 20% Subfactor 4.1 Coordination and Management - 10% Subfactor 4.2 Risk Management - 5% Subfactor 4.3 Cost, Schedule, and Quality Control in Geographically Remote Environment - 5% Project Schedule - 20% The solicitation documents should be referenced for specific details concerning the submittal requirements and evaluation of non-price factors.
