All pages shall have appropriate left margins and three punched holes. The technical proposal shall not exceed 100 pages in length. Type (font) size must be no less than 10 point and no more than 12 point for general text. Page limit does not include the Maintenance Status Report.

6. An Executive Summary (or cover letter) shall accompany the proposal to set forth any information that the Offeror wishes to bring to the attention of the Government. This letter shall be considered part of the Offeror’s proposal and shall be included as part of Volume 1 - Technical Proposal.

VOLUME 1 – TECHNICAL PROPOSAL

The technical proposal shall be crafted to address the following technical evaluation factors succinctly and clearly without excess verbiage.

TAB A – TECHNICAL (AIRCRAFT) -

(1) Brand Name Aircraft - Offerors shall clearly identify the Brand Name aircraft being proposed, including the manufacturer's serial numbers (MSNs) and aircraft tail number. Offerors must provide adequate documentation and evidence to convince the Government that the proposed Brand Name aircraft meets all of the technical requirements at the time of proposal submission. If the aircraft does not meet these minimum technical requirements at the time of proposal submission, the Offeror shall describe a plan to meet these minimum technical requirements by the delivery date. In addition to this, offerors shall complete the Aircraft Specifications & Equipment Listing (Attachment # 3), included in these instructions for each proposed aircraft and submit it with their proposal.

(2) Additionally, JPATS intends to upgrade/replace/modify (“Future Requirements”) certain characteristics of the aircraft procured if the aircraft does not already possess the identified particular characteristics. The Aircraft Technical Specifications will identify those Future Requirement(s) but does not require any Offeror to propose an aircraft with those characteristics unless the Offeror chooses to do so. However, if the proposed aircraft does not possess any of the particular Future Requirement(s) and the Offeror is not offering the aircraft with those characteristics, Offerors are required to submit a written detailed path forward (“Roadmap Requirement” or

“Roadmap”) demonstrating whether it is feasible for JPATS to implement the Future Requirement(s) in that particular aircraft. The Roadmap must identify the current configuration of the aircraft, specific details with supporting information and data, if applicable, as to how JPATS could implement the Future Requirement (See Aircraft Specifications & Equipment Listing – Attachment #3). Aircraft proposed that currently meet the Future Requirement may be assessed with a preference during the evaluation process and best value determination. For aircraft proposed that do not currently possess the Future Requirement(s), the Roadmap provided will be assessed to determine whether it instills confidence that JPATS will feasibly, reasonably, and realistically be able to implement the particular Future Requirement onto the aircraft.

(3) Photos - For the proposed aircraft, offerors shall provide color photographs detailing the proposed aircraft’s interior, exterior, cargo/baggage compartments and cockpit. The following digital color photographs shall be submitted for each aircraft proposed by the Offeror:

(a) An exterior photograph taken from the front of the aircraft that depicts all of the aircraft from that viewpoint.

(b) An exterior photograph taken from the rear of the aircraft that depicts all of the aircraft from that viewpoint.

(c) An exterior photograph taken from the area of the left-wing tip that depicts all of the aircraft from that viewpoint.

(d) An exterior photograph taken from the area of the right-wing tip that depicts all of the aircraft from that viewpoint.

(e) An interior photograph taken from the front of the cabin area (just aft of the cockpit door) looking aft.

(f) An interior photograph taken from the rear of the cabin area (just forward of the rear door/bulkhead) looking forward.

(g) An interior photograph taken from the over wing exit area looking forward.

(h) An interior photograph taken from the over wing exit area looking aft.

(i) A cockpit photograph that depicts the overhead instrument panel.

(j) A cockpit photograph that depicts the Captain’s instrument panel.

(k) A cockpit photograph that depicts the Center forward instrument panel.

(l) A cockpit photograph that depicts the First Officer’s instrument panel.

(m) A cockpit photograph that depicts the Lower Center instrument console.

This documentation shall be of sufficient quality to readily determine the general exterior and interior colors and condition and the general cockpit instrumentation.

(3) Reports – The offerors shall provide a Maintenance Status Report (Contractor Format acceptable) showing scheduled maintenance status, to include, at a minimum, current status of all scheduled maintenance events, airworthiness directive (AD) and mandatory service bulletin (SB) compliance, life limited components and hard time change items due dates.

TAB B – DELIVERY SCHEDULE - The offeror shall provide a proposed delivery schedule (workflow schedule) for the aircraft proposed. The government’s required delivery schedule is 12 weeks after date of award. Any proposed delivery schedule exceeding 12 weeks after date of award will be determined as unacceptable.

TAB C – CORPORATE EXPERIENCE - The Offeror shall describe their experience during the past five (5) years in providing aircraft of similar size, complexity and scope to either public or private sector entities. The government requires this information to assess whether the Offeror’s experience reflects if the Offeror has performed similar work before.

TAB D – PAST PERFORMANCE - The Offerors shall provide up to five (5) references for the prime Offeror, no more than one (1) page each in length for all projects of similar size, scope and complexity, which are in progress or were completed within the past three (3) years. In contrast to the Corporate Experience factor described above, the government requires this information to assess how well the Offeror has previously performed work of similar size, scope and complexity. Past performance information is not included in the page count. Offerors shall provide the customer name and address;

point of contact (name, title, telephone number and e-mail address for contractual/administrative matters (e.g. the Contracting Officer) and for technical performance (e.g. the Contracting Officer's Technical Representative); contract/task order number; period of performance; total dollar value (if performed as part of a team, prime/subcontractor relationship provide the dollar value attributed to your firm's efforts; a brief description of the work performed; and identification of the team members/subcontractors and the role played by each member.

Offerors having little or no relevant performance record identifiable; will be given a neutral rating which has no positive or negative evaluation significance.

ADDENDUM TO FAR 52.212-2, EVALUATION – COMMERCIAL ITEMS.

This addendum provides greater detail and depth than the provision in Section 5 and offerors should be aware this addendum will be followed and adhered to.

A. General.

(1) A Single Award will be made to the Offeror whose proposal, conforming to this solicitation, is determined to be in the best interest of the Government. Only one (1) contract will be awarded for one (1) aircraft.

(2) The Offeror’s compliance with those minimum standards is a prerequisite to an affirmative determination of responsibility as defined by Section 9.104-1 of the Federal Acquisition Regulation.

B. Evaluation – Commercial Items

(1) The Government will award a contract resulting from this solicitation to the responsible Offeror whose offer conforming to the solicitation will be most advantageous to the Government, price and other factors considered. The following factors (listed in descending order of importance) shall be used: Technical (Aircraft); Delivery Schedule;

Corporate Experience; Past Performance and Price

(a) Technical (Aircraft) - Based upon the documentation provided by the Offeror, the Government will evaluate if the proposed Brand Name aircraft meets all of the minimum technical requirements listed in the Aircraft Technical Specifications document at the time of proposal submission. If the aircraft does not meet these technical requirements at the time of proposal submission, the Government will evaluate the Offeror’s plan for the aircraft to meet these technical requirements by the delivery date as proposed by the offeror. Aircraft proposed that currently meet the Future Requirements as described previously may be assessed with a preference during the evaluation process and best value determination. For aircraft proposed that currently do not meet any particular Future Requirement, JPATS will assess the Roadmap provided and whether it instills confidence that the Future Requirement appear feasible, realistic, and reasonable to implement.

(b) Delivery Schedule – The government will evaluate the contractor’s proposed delivery schedule against the government’s required schedule. This is based on a 12-weeks from date of award; however, preference will be given to Offerors who propose an earlier delivery date.

(c) Corporate Experience - As previously described above in the instructions, experience reflects whether the offeror has performed similar work before.

Therefore, the Government will evaluate the extent and relevance of the offeror’s corporate experience in providing large aircraft similar in size, scope and complexity to what is described in the Technical Specifications. In other words, the Government will review whether the offeror has performed similar work, the frequency it performed such work, and for how long it has performed such work.

(d) Past Performance – Past performance is a measure of the degree to which an

Offeror as an organization has satisfied its customers. Although the U.S.

Marshals Service cannot guarantee that it will contact all of each Offeror’s and their proposed subcontractor’s references, it will make a reasonable effort to contact them to inquire about: 1) the Contractor’s ability to meet identified technical requirements; 2) the Contractor’s ability to deliver the aircraft in a…
