Offerors must submit separate proposals for each of five geographic zones, with maximum of one awarded contract per zone. The contract structure requires offerors to propose fixed Profit%, Overhead%, and Bond% rates (guidance ranges: Overhead 8-15%, Profit 5-10%, Bond 1-3.5%) that will serve as maximums for all task orders. Proposals are due August 11, 2026 at 3:00 PM CST via email. A pre-proposal conference is scheduled for July 22, 2026 at 1:00 PM MST. Award will be made using the highest technically rated with fair and reasonable price approach, with non-price factors (Prior Experience and Past Performance) weighted significantly more important than price.

(1) Contents
Offerors will be required to provide pricing for the following elements:
● Profit % for all task orders and modifications of task orders
● Overhead % for all task orders and modifications of task orders
● Bond % for all task orders and modifications of task orders
If the rates proposed are accepted, they will be incorporated into the base IDIQ contract, and represent the maximum percentages which may be applied to task orders awarded under the base contract. On individual task order competitions, Offerors are http://sam.gov encouraged to propose, and the Government may award, lower rates than those awarded in their base IDIQ contract.
The following ranges are examples of rates historically determined to be fair and reasonable. These are provided as general guidance only, for Offerors’ consideration in pricing their proposals for the current Solicitation. Proposed rates within these ranges will not automatically be determined to be fair and reasonable, and the Government makes no guarantee that Offerors that provide pricing within these ranges will be selected for award. The Contracting Officer will use various factors to determine if specific rates proposed for this Solicitation are fair and reasonable and may include, but are not limited to: historical data; comparison to the Independent Government Estimate;
consideration of the rates proposed by the Offeror pool as a whole; and market conditions.
Markup Zone 1 Zone 2 Zone 3 Zone 4 Zone 5
Overhead 8–15% 8–15% 8–15% 8–15% 8-15%
Profit 5–10% 5–10% 5–10% 5–10% 5-10%
Bond 1–3.5% 1–3.5% 1.–3.5% 1–3.5% 1-3.5%
Offerors shall ensure that proposed markup rates are adequate to account for the most technically challenging and high-risk project scenarios. Vendors are expected to exercise professional judgment to reduce markups for lower-risk projects. These rates constitute the maximum allowable ceiling for all subsequent task orders and contract modifications.
The Price Proposal shall consist of the SF 1449 and the Agreement, with prices and/or rates indicated for each price element shown on the pricing form included in Section II of the Agreement.

FAR 52.209-13 Violation of Arms Control Treaties or Agreements-Certification (NOV 2025) (GSA Class Deviation RFO-2025-09)
(a) This provision does not apply to acquisitions at or below the simplified acquisition threshold or to acquisitions of commercial products and commercial services as defined in Federal Acquisition Regulation 2.101.
(b) Certification. [Offeror shall check either (1) or (2).]
__ (1) The Offeror certifies that–
(i) It does not engage and has not engaged in any activity that contributed to or was a significant factor in the President's or Secretary of State's determination that a foreign country is in violation of its obligations undertaken in any arms control, nonproliferation, or disarmament agreement to which the United States is a party, or is not adhering to its arms control, nonproliferation, or disarmament commitments in which the United States is a participating state. The determinations are described in the most recent unclassified annual report provided to Congress pursuant to section 403 of the Arms Control and Disarmament Act (22 U.S.C. 2593a). The report is available at https://www.state.gov/bureaus-offices/under-secretary-for-arms-control-and-international -security-affairs/bureau-of-arms-control-verification-and-compliance/; and
(ii) No entity owned or controlled by the Offeror has engaged in any activity that contributed to or was a significant factor in the President's or Secretary of State's determination that a foreign country is in violation of its obligations undertaken in any arms control, nonproliferation, or disarmament agreement to which the United States is a party, or is not adhering to its arms control, nonproliferation, or disarmament commitments in which the United States is a participating state. The determinations are described in the most recent unclassified annual report provided to Congress pursuant to section 403 of the Arms Control and Disarmament Act (22 U.S.C. 2593a). The report is available at https://www.state.gov/bureaus-offices/under-secretary-for-arms-control-and-international -security-affairs/bureau-of-arms-control-verification-and-compliance/; or
__ (2) The Offeror is providing separate information with its offer in accordance with paragraph (d)(2) of this provision.
(c) Procedures for reviewing the annual unclassified report (see paragraph (b)(1) of this provision). For clarity, references to the report in this section refer to the entirety of the annual unclassified report, including any separate reports that are incorporated by reference into the annual unclassified report.
(1) Check the table of contents of the annual unclassified report and the country section headings of the reports incorporated by reference to identify the foreign countries listed there. Determine whether the Offeror or any person owned or controlled by the Offeror may have engaged in any activity related to one or more of such foreign countries.
(2) If such activity might have occurred, review all findings in the report associated with those foreign countries to determine whether or not each such foreign country was determined to be in violation of its obligations undertaken in an arms control, nonproliferation, or disarmament agreement to which the United States is a party, or to be not adhering to its arms control, nonproliferation, or disarmament commitments in which the United States is a participating state. For clarity, in the annual report an explicit certification of non-compliance is equivalent to a determination of violation.
However, the following statements in the annual report are not equivalent to a determination of violation:
(i) An inability to certify compliance.
(ii) An inability to conclude compliance.
(iii) A statement about compliance concerns.
(3) If so, determine whether the Offeror or any person owned or controlled by the Offeror has engaged in any activity that contributed to or is a significant factor in the determination in the report that one or more of these foreign countries is in violation of its obligations undertaken in an arms control, nonproliferation, or disarmament agreement to which the United States is a party, or is not adhering to its arms control, nonproliferation, or disarmament commitments in which the United States is a participating state. Review the narrative for any such findings reflecting a determination of violation or non-adherence related to those foreign countries in the report, including the finding itself, and to the extent necessary, the conduct giving rise to the compliance or adherence concerns, the analysis of compliance or adherence concerns, and efforts to resolve compliance or adherence concerns.
(4) The Offeror may submit any questions with regard to this report by email to NDAA1290Cert@state.gov. To the extent feasible, the Department of State will respond to such email inquiries within 3 business days.
(d) Do not submit an offer unless—
(1) A certification is provided in paragraph (b)(1) of this provision and submitted with the offer; or
(2) In accordance with paragraph (b)(2) of this provision, the Offeror provides with its offer information that the President of the United States has
(i) Waived application under 22 U.S.C. 2593e(d) or (e); or
(ii) Determined under 22 U.S.C. 2593e(g)(2) that the entity has ceased all activities for which measures were imposed under 22 U.S.C. 2593e(b).
(e) Remedies. The certification in paragraph (b)(1) of this provision is a material representation of fact upon which reliance was placed when making award. If the Government later determines that the Offeror knowingly submitted a false certification, in addition to other remedies available to the Government, such as suspension or debarment, the Contracting Officer may terminate any contract resulting from the false certification.
