- ALL INFORMATION NEEDED FOR INTERESTED PARTIES TO SUBMIT A STANDARD FORM (SF) 330, ARCHITECT ENGINEER QUALIFICATIONS IS CONTAINED HEREIN. THERE IS NO SEPARATE RFP PACKAGE TO DOWNLOAD. Professional engineering services are required for an Indefinite Quantity Contract for Projects located primarily within the Naval Facilities Engineering Command, Atlantic's (NAVFAC LANTs) Area of Responsibility (AOR). The NAVFAC LANT AOR includes the entire continental United States (CONUS), Caribbean, and outside continental United States (OCONUS), including Europe, Africa, Western Asia, and South America. Some task orders may address non-Navy sites or other Navy regions outside the NAVFAC LANT AOR to support joint service or global efforts. The primary tasks anticipated under this contract include developing Basic Facility Requirements (BFR) documents and performing Engineering Evaluations: Basic Facility Requirements (BFRs) are developed to determine what facilities are required to perform the assigned mission. The contractor will calculate BFRs by Category Code, Special Area, and Host and its tenants for each site. BFRs are the result of an analysis of projected mission and base/tenant loading, operational considerations, activity and surrounding community conditions, and sound professional judgment. BFRs are intended to be the minimum facilities necessary for efficient operation and are not directly constrained by anticipated funding levels, individual operational priorities or inefficiencies in existing facilities. An Engineering Evaluation (EE) is an on-site inspection of an Activitys buildings and structures that is performed jointly by the contractor and the activity. During an EE, existing facilities are inspected to verify current occupancy, floor areas and usage, and to assess their ability to satisfy designated present uses. Data will include photos of buildings. The A&E must be able to demonstrate its (and its consultants) qualifications with respect to this description and the published evaluations factors listed herein.
