An opening project has not been identified. Engineering services are required for field investigations, structural analyses, preparation of plans, specifications, cost estimates, related studies and all associated engineering services, shop drawing review and Quality Assurance Plan preparation (specifying construction contract inspection requirements). Experience is required in design of concrete, steel, wood, composites and other common structural materials. A working knowledge of destructive and non-destructive material sampling and testing techniques is required. Small building and waterfront design projects including incidental architectural, mechanical and electrical considerations may be required on some projects. Sampling and testing of materials for lead paint and asbestos may occasionally be required. Several relatively small projects with quick turnaround times are anticipated. Firms are required to prepare specifications in the SpecsIntact system format, drawings in AutoCAD Version 14 compatible format and cost estimates utilizing the computerized CES format. Firms that meet the requirements described in this announcement are required to submit one copy each of completed SF-254 and SF-255 forms. Copies of SF-254 forms are also required for proposed sub-consultants and copies of SF-255 forms are encouraged for proposed sub-consultants who are expected to contribute significantly to the contract. The AE shall describe his and each key sub-consultant's qualifications with respect to the published evaluation factors for design and all option services. Evaluation factors (1) and (2) are of equal and greatest importance; factors (6), (7) and (8) are of lesser importance than factors (1) through (5). Pertinent statements relative to the evaluation factors shall be included in Part 10 of Form SF-255. Superfluous information is discouraged.

Specific projects listed in Part 8 shall identify the key persons from Part 7 that participated in that project and briefly describe their role in the project. Provide a synopsis of the scope of work, year work completed, point of contact and telephone number for each project listed. Include only projects involving structural designs or evaluations. Provide evidence that your firm is permitted by law to practice the profession of engineering in the State of residence, i.e. state registration number. (3) Capacity to accomplish the work in the required time. Describe knowledge of the work area at Cherry Point and outlying fields. In a maximum of one page, provide a narrative and/or graph showing the anticipated backlog of work over the next twelve month period for key personnel proposed for use in this contract.

Application of this criterion is contingent upon receiving an appropriate number of qualified firms.
