standard, Type I, cantilever framed, with supporting apron and
utilities, foundation on auger cast piles, insulated protected metal
siding, interior concrete masonry unit walls, AFFF fire protection

waste storage area, three large oil/water separators and five aircraft
wash racks. Site work includes 52,032 SM operational pavement; one
meter depth fill dirt; 1.4 hectare wetland mitigation; stormwater
management system for airfield pavement, flight line security fencing,
and 150 space parking for private vehicles. The A&E must demonstrate
his and each key consultant's qualifications with respect to the
published evaluation factors for all services. Evaluation factors (1)
through (6) are of equal importance; factors (7), (8) and (9) are

technically equal firms. Specific evaluation factors include: (1)
Specialized Experience -- Firms will be evaluated in terms of: (a)
their past experience with regard to the design of cantilevered
aircraft hangars and in the design of airfield support pavement; (b)
experience with designing facilities using the metric system of
measurement as required by the NAVFAC Metrication Conversion Policy for
Design, Planning and Design Criteria, and NAVFAC Guide Specifications;
(c) the firm's experience in providing construction phase services
(shop drawing review, as-built drawing preparation, Quality Assurance
Plan (QAP) preparation, construction inspection services, and OMSI);
(d) their past experience in the preparation of design/build contracts;
(e) knowledge of local codes, laws, permits and construction materials
and practices of southeastern Virginia; and (f) firm must have
experience with Function Analysis Concept Design (FACD) workshops or
design charettes; (2) Professional qualifications and technical
competence in the type of work required: Firms will be evaluated in
terms of the design staff's: (a) active professional registration; (b)
experience (with present and other firms) and roles of staff members
specifically on projects addressed in evaluation factor number one; (c)
capability to provide qualified backup staffing for key personnel to
ensure continuity of services and ability to surge to meet unexpected
project demands; and (d) organization and office management as
evidenced by management approach (management plan for this project),
and personnel roles in organization; (3) Sustainable Design -- Firms
will be evaluated in terms of their knowledge and demonstrated
experience in applying sustainability concepts and principles to
facilities and infrastructure problems through an integrated design
approach; (4) Ability to perform the work to schedules noted above --
Firms will be evaluated in terms of impact of this workload on the
design staff's projected workload during the design period; (5) Past
performance -- Firms will be evaluated in terms of one or more of the
following (with emphasis on projects addressed in factor number one):
(a) the process for cost control and the key person responsible; and
(b) performance ratings/letters of recommendations received; (6)
Quality Control Program -- Firms will be evaluated on the acceptability
of their internal quality control program used to ensure technical
accuracy and discipline coordination of plans and specifications --
list key personnel responsible;; (7) Firm location (provided that
application of this criterion leaves an appropriate number of qualified
firms, given the nature and size of the contract); (8) Volume of Work
-- Firms will be evaluated in terms of work previously awarded to the
