Subject to the limitations of the above-listed authorities and additional conditions and limitations as described further in the solicitation package, the DoN will contribute up to $37 million, 722 existing DoN owned and occupied military unaccompanied housing units including related improvements, and a leasehold interest in unimproved land for the construction of new units and support facilities in Norfolk, Virginia.

The Naval Facilities Engineering Command Atlantic, Norfolk, VA utilizing a two-step ?Best Value? process, will conduct the evaluations and make the selection of the PPV partner. An Invitation for Offers (IFO), containing a Statement of Qualifications (SOQ) and an Invitation for Proposals (IFP), will be used. Step 1- Statement of Qualifications (SOQ): Interested parties are requested to submit a Statement of Qualifications (SOQ) describing their overall concept for development and their approach to the operation and management of the project; statements describing past performance with regard to developments of a similar nature, scope and scale; and statements describing financial capability/capacity are required. The DoN evaluation will include the offeror?s concept and approach, past performance, and capability and capacity for the project. DoN officials will review the Step 1 SOQ, and may meet with any or all of the respondents, and may request additional information on particular aspects of the information submitted. Based on its evaluation, the DoN will invite not more than four (4) offerors to respond to the Step 2, IFP. Step 2- Invitation for Proposals (IFP): Proposals submitted will consist of written technical and financial proposals, and may be followed by oral presentations. DoN officials will review proposals to the Step 2 IFP, may meet with any or all offerors, and may request additional information on particular aspects of the material submitted. Upon completion of its evaluation, the DoN will select the one (1) offer that, in the DoN?s opinion, provides the ?best value? for the overall project, and will designate the offeror to a period of exclusive negotiations.
