Question Reference Answer RFQ Package Change

ELSS TORFP #002 RFSS/RESU lists Key Personnel as Project Manager, Deputy Project Manager, Site Supervisors, and Assistant Supervisors. The ELSS_TO_002_Redstone_Price_Template_Attachment_3 does not list a Project Manager, Deputy Project Manager, or Site Supervisor. There are zero hours allocated to Assistant Supervisor. The Redstone Enterprise Services Unit Statement of Work does list Project Manager, Deputy Project Manager, and Site Supervisor. Question: Does the government consider Project Manager and Program Manager to be the same labor category and thus interchangeable?

ELSS TORFP #002 RFSS/RESU;

ELSS_TO_002_Redstone_Price_Template_Attach ment_3; Redstone Enterprise Services Unit Statement of Work

Yes, we consider 'Project' and 'Program' to be interchangeable. Project Manager = Program Manager, Deputy Project Manager = Deputy Program Manager, Site Supervisor = Supervisor

No Change

ELSS TORFP #002 RFSS/RESU lists Site Supervisor as Key Personnel. The ELSS_TO_002_Redstone_Price_Template_Attachment_3 allocates 17,208 hours for Site Supervisor (9 FTE). The Redstone Enterprise Services Unit Statement of Work 4.2.3 states that Site Supervisors "work independently or under the general direction of senior level Contractor management on all phases of performance, including contract management, project/task management, coordination of workloads and resource needs, and coordination with corporate resources and management. These individuals have direct accountability for the technical correctness, timeliness, and quality or work performed under the contract." Could the government clarify which technical areas of the SOW each Supervisor is responsible for supervising? Without clarification we are unable to determine which personnel to propose and which would be qualified to perform supervisory duties under this SOW.

ELSS TORFP #002 RFSS/RESU; Redstone Enterprise Services Unit Statement of Work

Programs include: (1) Fleet Maintenance, (1) Fleet Reservations, (1) Property, (1) Supply, (1) Move, (1) Warehouse, (1) Shipping, (2) Building Logistics

Updated Position Descriptions Document

Section C.1.9 contains the following: ”Work beyond 80 hours in a 2 week pay period may be required on a surge/ad-hoc basis due to mission needs and must be approved by the COR. Any labor hours beyond 80 shall be billed at the TO FP/LOE rate. Overtime rates are not the responsibility of the Government.” Question: There appears to be a conflict in this section where the text implies there is only the TO FP/LOE rate with uncapped hours that places a financial risk on industry that we have no ability to predict and the Price Template includes columns for both Overtime Rate and Double Overtime rate. How does the Government intend for industry to price this? RFP Reference: IDIQ RFP section C.1.9, page 18

Price the Overtime and Double OT rates as noted in the price templates. RFP language has been deconflicted. See updated RFP.

Question: Section C.1.13 states that “The Contractor may be required under individual TOs to provide light cargos and medium trucks. The contractor shall also have current Department of Transportation (DoT) certified fleet of vehicles and associated licenses to perform transportation of mail/goods/materials to include movement and transportation of hazardous materials across state lines as required. The service provider must have the DOT certificated fleet prior to the TO contract award.” Question: Is the Government’s intent that the contractor lease or purchase vehicles prior to task order award? Requiring contractors to acquire vehicles prior to award places a needless financial risk on the contractor while providing no improvement to task order performance. Will the government consider revising language to require contractors provide any required vehicles at the time of award? RFP Reference: IDIQ RFP Section C.1.13, page 20

No, is is not the Government’s intent that the contractor lease or purchase vehicles prior to task order award. The government anticipates actual performance of the contract to start approximately 10 days after award (current schedule for transition).

Question: The RFP cautions against compensation levels lower than those of predecessor contractors for the same work. This information is not known to the offers except for the incumbent(s) of existing contracts providing these services. This may create a structural incumbent advantage.

Recommendation: Change the evaluation approach to evaluating the compensation levels relative to market norms and survey information which is publicly available rather than the specific compensation of incumbent contractors which is only known to them.

Question: The Requirement section, page 8, states “At the Government request, the Contractor shall permit government participation in the Contractor’s hiring meet and greet process with prospective employees prior to hiring.” Since this is not a personal services contract, is the government requesting to be inserted into the hiring process for Contractor employees? Recommendation: Please clarify the Government’s role in the Contractor hiring.

Friday, May 26, 2023 AMENDMEN 3- Questions & Answers

Question: The RFP states that price competition will occur at the Task Order Level; however, the RFP provides no mechanism to permit IDIQ holders to selectively discount the maximum rates established at the IDIQ level based on the unique requirements and competitive environment for a specific task order. The RFP as it stands requires prime contractors to establish fixed labor prices at the IDIQ level and then bid those rates, unchanged, on seed task orders and task orders solicited after award. Both seed task orders require that bidders use their IDIQ rates to populate both task order pricing templates, and both task order RFPs intend to use price as an evaluation factor. If that is the Government’s intent, the firm with the lowest price at the IDIQ level will, by rule, have the lowest price on both seed task orders as both specify in great detail the labor mix – hours and labor categories are fixed. In other words, there is no possibility of price competition at all on task orders.

Recommendation: Add additional tables and formulas and any other necessary elements in Attachment 5, along with instructions in sections L and M, that allow submission and evaluation of subcontractor rates. This may take the form of composite rates or the FBI may choose to establish maximum IDIQ rates that contractors can choose to discount when bidding the seed task orders and any task orders solicited after IDIQ award. Alternatively, the FBI could choose to move price competition to the task order level by allowing bidders to establish maximum rates at the IDIQ level.

IDIQ price evaluation would then be limited to reasonableness and realism evaluations and IDIQ awards more reflective of technical capability. Seed task orders and any subsequent task orders would then be competed both on the basis of technical solutions and price.

RFP Reference: IDIQ RFP Section L.7, M.3.4, Attachment 5, IDIQ_Attachment_5_PricingTemplate,xlsx, ELSS_TO_001_NCR_RFP, ELSS_TO_002_REDSTONE_RFP, TO_001 and TO_002 pricing templates

The contractors are encouraged to bid competitive labor rates at the IDIQ level. The IDIQ labor rates are the maximum rates for the life of the contract, per L.-7.1. Each task order released against the IDIQ, will be competed among all IDIQ contract holders. Each task order will vary by technical requirment, labor categories, quantity of labor, and duration. Price is not the only factor evaluated at the task order level. Competition is possible.

Question: The Master IDIQ states in H.36 Key Personnel Requirements “All Key Personnel shall be identified at the task order level. There are no key personnel identified by the Government for the Master IDIQ.” In attachment “ELSS_TO_002_Redstone_Attachment_2_Position_Descriptions.pdf” there is a position titled “Project Manager,” but in the attachment “ELSS_TO_002_Redstone_Price_Template_Attachment_3.xlsx,” there is no Project Manager. The position is listed in the Redstone Price Template as “Program Manager,” but there are no hours assigned to this position in the Redstone Pricing Template.

The “IDIQ Attachment 5 Pricing Template” file has a Rates tab with a row per location for Fringe %.

However, for Service Contract Act (SCA) positions, fringe benefits do not equate to an equal percentage across all positions since, for instance, the $4.80/hr. Health & Welfare rate is a higher percentage of the component of fringe for a lower hourly paid SCA employee than for a higher hourly rate SCA employee. Thus the approach the government is using in the pricing sheet to calculate Fringe $ in the columns in each location site won’t work for SCA positions pricing. We noted that bidders can insert additional purple columns, please confirm that we could insert columns to show the rate build-up for SCA Positions versus Salaried positions. Fringe data can be a percentage on the dollar or a column can be inserted to provid frige.
