Instructions for Completion of this form:

INSTRUCTIONS TO OFFERORS

Offerors who indicate that a Relevant Experience Project Qualifying item or items on the Relevant Experience Qualification Checklist (Tab F5 (A), (B), and (C) of the TacCom II TC1/TC2 Proposal Workbook) is “Missing or Inconsistent Data Addressed by the CO,” must provide a narrative description of the missing or inconsistent data on this form and procure concurrence from the cognizant Contracting Officer (CO) or Contracting Officers Representative (COR) in accordance with RFP Section L.7.2.2.

Offerors should note that some of the documentation items on the Relevant Experience Project Qualification Checklist are not applicable or exempt when submitting a Relevant Experience Project using state or local contracts. Exempt items are identified in the description for each item on the Relevant Experience Project Qualification Checklist.

Under the section titled Award ID: Identify the contract/order number or numbers to which the missing or inconsistent data applies and the relevant experience project number.

Under the section titled Description, identify the item number from the Relevant Experience Project Qualification Checklist and provide a brief description of the missing or inconsistent data. Expand the table as needed.

The description should be sufficiently detailed to explain the missing or inconsistent data. It should state what comprises the correct data for consideration by the TacCom II evaluators. The description should be sufficiently clear and complete so that the CO or COR fully understands the meaning of their concurrence. The onus is on the offeror to show the correlation between the relevant experience project attachments and the missing or inconsistent data that are certified by the cognizant CO/COR. Where the offeror fails to clearly make that correlation, the missing or inconsistent data may not be validated by the government and associated points deducted from offerors self-score.

Have the CO or COR sign and complete their section and return the signed document to you for inclusion in your response to the TacCom II RFP.
