This factor considers the materials, layout, maintainability, quality, durability, maintenance considerations,
and any aspects of the proposed building systems and materials. Additional consideration will be given
to all proposed systems or materials which include betterments or which exceed the minimum
requirements of the Statement of Work. Offerors are encouraged to present energy, maintenance, and
life cycle cost improvements which will lead to the overall improvement in the final facilities constructed.
The following subfactors shall be considered in evaluation this factor. The levels of importance are as
follows:
Subfactor a and b are the most important subfactors.
Subfactor c, d, e, f, & g are of equal importance and are each slightly less important than subfactor a.
Subfactor h and .i. are of equal importance and are each less important than subfactor b.
Subfactor j, & k, are of equal importance and are each significantly less important than subfactor i.
Subfactor l is a "GO/NO GO" factor and will be rated as pass/fail without an adjectival component..
a. Building Heating, Ventilating, and Air Conditioning Systems.
This subfactor evaluates the
heating, air conditioning, and ventilating systems proposed for installation. Evaluation will concentrate on
the proposed schematic drawing information presented, the design approach narratives, and the
equipment and material catalog information included in the proposals.
The systems proposed must
meet the minimum requirements set forth in the Statement of Work and shall represent systems which are
fully integrated into the building structure and are fully capable of environmental control of the spaces.
Within this subfactor, the automatic temperature controls shall also be considered. Where addressed in
the Statement of Work, the proposed automatic temperature controls systems proposed shall be 100%
compatible and integratable into the existing Installation Wide UMCS without translators or third party
interface devices. Additional considerations will be given to proposals which incorporate energy recovery
systems, high efficiency systems, energy conservation considerations, thermal storage systems, and
other systems and features designed to enhance the overall performance of the facility while reducing the
operating and maintenance costs expected.
b. Building Interior Electrical Systems. This subfactor evaluates the electrical power and lighting
systems proposed for installation.
Evaluation will concentrate on the proposed schematic drawing
information presented, the design approach narratives, and the equipment and material catalog
information included in the proposals. The systems proposed must meet the minimum requirements set
forth in the Statement of Work and shall represent systems which are fully integrated into the building
structure. Additional consideration will be given to proposals which incorporate energy saving materials
into the proposals or materials which represent a lower life cycle cost to the Base.
c. Integration of Interior Support Systems (HVAC, Electrical, Structural, Plumbing, etc).
This
subfactor evaluates the integration of the various supporting systems among themselves and within the
proposed structural systems. Offeror's proposal shall include a narrative which illustrates the methods
and processes whereby the various supporting systems are coordinated to assure a minimum of
construction problems which relate the interface between the disciplines.
d. Force Protection Considerations. This subfactor evaluates the implementation and considerations
of the facility construction related Force Protection Requirements associated with these facilities. A
proposal rated "Unacceptable" in this subfactor will be eliminated from consideration.
e. Building Thermal Performance. This subfactor evaluates the overall thermal performance of the
building structure and includes walls, windows, doors, infiltration, perimeter insulation, and any heat
transferring surface within the new constructions. The Statement of Work provides a minimum level of
prescriptive requirements which must be included in the proposal.
Offerors will receive additional
consideration for thermal performance which exceeds the minimum requirements and which reduce the
overall energy usage of the facilities.
f.
Building Construction Materials (Other than Structural, HVAC, Electrical).
This subfactor
evaluates the quality of the materials proposed for installation in the facility.
