c) Offerors shall submit their Phase I and II proposal documents in soft copy electronic version. All documents should be in Microsoft Office 2007 or Adobe Acrobat 9.4 or later, in a searchable format. Electronic proposal documents shall be consolidated by volume. If documents cannot be grouped within one *.zip file and/or one email, offerors may use multiple emails provided they label each email “Email X of X” (ex. “Email 1 of 3”).

d) GSA accepts no responsibility and shall not be held liable for incomplete and/or late proposal submissions due to technical difficulties in transmission of messages and/or documents exceeding the 25MB per email limit. It is recommended that offerors not wait until the last day/hour proposals are due to attempt their proposal submission.

e) Communications and comments concerning the contents of this RFP shall be accepted no later than 10:00 AM on February 7, 2020 in the following link only:

https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1ptaur1mtGtu1ukVqhyOj1dFgEPO6aGsa1ipf-h4D_CY/edit. Questions received and GSA’s responses will be posted to www.beta.sam.gov at regular intervals during the proposal period. Identities of prospective Offerors asking questions will not be disclosed and any proprietary information contained within questions will be redacted. Questions should cite the section, paragraph number and page number in question within the RFP. Statements expressing opinions, sentiments, or conjectures are not considered valid inquires or comments and will not receive a response from GSA. Furthermore, offerors are reminded that GSA will not address hypothetical or scenario-based questions or questions aimed toward receiving potential “evaluation decisions” from GSA.

f) All volumes are to be prepared as separate files. Technical proposals must not contain any pricing information; do not cross-reference material submitted in the technical proposal with the price proposal, and vice versa. Information provided shall be concise, complete, and shall demonstrate a thorough understanding of the requirements as described in Attachment 2 of this solicitation. It is imperative that offerors thoroughly read and understand the Performance Work Statement when preparing and submitting proposals. Proposals that merely restate the government’s requirements or offer to conduct a program in accordance with the government’s requirements without going into further detail will not be considered acceptable and will not receive further consideration. Similarly, over generalizations and phrases such as “standard procedures will be employed” or “well-known techniques will be used” are also not acceptable.

g) Offerors are cautioned that the use of any format other than the one described in this section could result in the evaluation board’s inability to give maximum ratings.

h) When evaluating an offeror’s capability to perform the prospective contract, the government will also consider how well the offeror complied with proposal submission instructions. Offers should contain the contractor’s best terms from a technical and price standpoint.

i) Should the offer include any standard company terms and conditions that conflict with the terms and conditions of the solicitation, the offer may be determined “unacceptable” and thus ineligible for contract award. Should the offeror have any questions related to specific terms and conditions, these should be resolved prior to submission of the offer.

j) The government will not be liable for any costs associated with the development, preparation, transmittal, or presentation of any proposal or material submitted in response to this RFP. The proposal and all materials submitted by the offeror in connection with this RFP shall become the property of the government.
