(c) Section L provides instructions and other information related to the preparation of a proposal. Offerors are cautioned to follow all instructions carefully to ensure the Government receives all requested information in a form that will facilitate proposal evaluation.

Evaluation factors are contained in Section M. Failure to provide all required information may eliminate a proposal from consideration or may make an offeror ineligible for award.

(d) The term “Offeror” as used in this solicitation refers to the single legal entity named in the

Offer. The legal entity must be a discrete entity separate from any other organization and may consist of the offeror team arrangement with multiple team members. The Offeror is solely responsible for work performed under the contract resulting from this solicitation.

The single legal entity must be incorporated or otherwise legally established on or before the date of proposal submission. Any and all team members comprising the legal entity must sign the Performance Guarantee.

(e) If an Offeror does not follow the instructions set forth herein, the Government may determine an offer to be unacceptable or the Offeror’s proposal may be eliminated from further consideration or the proposal may be downgraded and not receive full or partial credit under the applicable evaluation criteria.

(f) This solicitation does not commit the Government to pay any costs incurred in the submission of any offer and other written and oral information, or in making necessary studies or designs for the preparation thereof or to acquire or contract for any services.

(g) Any exceptions or deviations taken by the Offeror to the terms and conditions stated in this solicitation for inclusion in the resulting contract may make the offer unacceptable for award without discussions.

(h) Single Awards. It is the intent of the Government to award one contract as a result of this solicitation. The Government reserves the right to make one or more awards based upon the number of acceptable proposals received and the availability of funding.

(i) If an Offeror does not understand the instructions in this Solicitation, then it should write to the contracting officer for clarification sufficiently in advance of the deadline for the receipt of proposals in order to obtain an answer in time to meet that deadline.

(j) Amendments to solicitations – If this solicitation is amended, all terms and conditions that are not amended remain unchanged. Offerors shall acknowledge receipt of any amendment to this solicitation by the date and time specified in the amendment(s).

General Instructions:

(a) Instructions outlined in paragraph L.2 below prescribe the format for the proposal and describe the approach for the development and presentation of proposal data. These instructions are designed to ensure the submission of necessary information to provide for the understanding and comprehensive evaluation.

(b) If an offeror believes that the requirements in these instructions contain an error, ambiguity, omission, or are otherwise deemed unsound, the offeror shall immediately notify the Contracting Officer in writing with supporting rationale. The offeror is reminded that the Government reserves the right to award this requirement based on the initial proposal, as received, without discussions.

SECTION M

M.6 Cost/Price Evaluation

Price evaluation will be performed to determine whether the proposed price is complete for the work to be performed, reflects a clear understanding of the requirements, and is consistent with the approaches set forth in the Offeror’s technical proposal and budget narrative, and to determine if the proposed profit and total price are fair and reasonable.

a. This evaluation is conducted with the expectation of adequate price competition and will rely heavily on market forces to determine whether the proposed price is fair and reasonable. The comparison of proposed price in response to this solicitation is the preferred technique for this evaluation. GPO will also compare the proposed price to historical price paid for the same or similar services and the independent government cost estimate. Other techniques and procedures set forth in MMAR 15.404 1(b), if deemed necessary, may be used to ensure proposed price is fair and reasonable.

b. No price evaluation will be performed on proposals determined to be non-responsive or technically unacceptable.

c. This contract requires a cost-loaded Network Analysis Schedule (NAS). The schedule of prices shall be included as part of the NAS and submitted with the proposal. Offerors shall provide a detailed price breakdown, including:

• Quantities and unit prices for each category of work

• Total contract price.
