What they'll judge offers on

• Construction experience: tiered by role (Tier 1 prime that self-performed most work, Tier 2 prime using subcontractors, Tier 3 first-tier subcontractor), on projects similar in size, scope and complexity
• Bonding capacity
• Business type and small business status

What to include when you submit

• Complete the Contractor Information Form (UEI, CAGE code, contact, business type, surety name, bonding capacity per project and total). The notice says these forms are required.
• Send a minimum of two (2) and a maximum of five (5) relevant construction projects, one Project Information Form per project.
• Each project must be one construction project under a single task order? or contract; for multiple-award or indefinite-delivery contracts, send the work done under a task order, not the whole contract.
• Recent means 100% contract completion within the last ten (10) years before the response due date.
• Relevant size: final construction cost of $30,000,000 or greater or a minimum of 3 acres of pavement.
• Across the projects, show experience with: new or full-depth replacement of airfield concrete pavement or shoulders; airfield lighting construction or repair; airfield signage and pavement markings; and large earthwork with stormwater, underdrain and cast-in-place concrete drainage structures.
• Say whether each project is new construction or renovation, give its final construction cost, and show how it meets the scope and complexity items.
• Experience of subcontractors is not considered. If you were a subcontractor on a project, show your work met all requirements.
• A small business may use a small business first-tier subcontractor's experience under 13 CFR 125.2(g) only if it names that subcontractor in its package.
• Include identification and verification of your firm's small business status.
• A mentor-protege joint venture under the 8(a) program must provide Small Business Administration (SBA) approval of the mentor-protege agreement to be considered small.
• Optional: answer the Project Labor Agreement (PLA) questionnaire, which asks about the possible use of a PLA on this project.

Not in the notice text
