The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code associated with this procurement is 237990 - Other Heavy and Civil Engineering Construction. The Small Business Administration standard of $45.0 million dollars in annual receipts averaged over a business's latest three (3) complete fiscal years or (except in the Business Loan, Disaster Loan Programs, Surety Bond Guarantee, and SBIC Programs) five (5) complete fiscal years to determine the average annual receipts. If a business hasn't been in business for five (5) years, multiply its average weekly revenue by 52 to determine its average annual receipts. This requirement will be a Total Small Business Set-Aside, and the contractor shall be selected using Revolutionary Federal Acquisition Regulation Overhaul (RFO) Part 36.101-2 Use of Two-Phase Design-Build Selection Procedures and RFO Part 15.1 Presolicitation and Solicitation procedures. This procurement will be competitive, utilizing the Highest-Technically Rated with a Fair and Reasonable Process approach based on the solicitations's stated budgetary constraints (affordability) under the Best Value (RFO Part 15.103). The approach prioritizes the best possible performance, provided the price is determined to be fair and reasonable and within the guidelines of the Government's stated budget. During each phase, all proposals are initially evaluated based solely on the non-price factors specified in the solicitation. Only the price of the highest-ranked technical proposal is then evaluated to ensure it is fair, reasonable and does not exceed our stated budget. All evaluation factors other than cost or price, when combined, are significantly more important than cost or price. This requirement will result in a Firm-Fixed-Price contract for design and construction services.
