SECTION SF 30 BLOCK 14 CONTINUATION PAGE

SUMMARY OF CHANGES

The purpose of this Amendment is to update the original RFP, update Exhibit C - GLIMR ATSRD, and clarify the use of Reference and Applicable documents.

As a result, the following areas of the RFP are hereby amended:

1. Section J - List of Attachments, to revise Attachment 4 Title of Document and add Attachment 5, GLIMR-06-002

GLIMR Payload to GLIMR Spacecraft Interface Definition Document (IDD) - Preliminary version.

2. Provision L.6, Communications Regarding this Solicitation to extend the period to submit questions.

3. Provision M.4.2, Factor 2 – Technical Approach/Oral Presentation to update (a).

4. Exhibit C - GLIMR ATSRD to update Reference Document Numbers in Section 2.2. See attached Amendment 2

Version.

5. Based on the questions received under Amendment 1, specifically questions 5, 6, and 10, the Government determined it is necessary to further clarify the use of both the Reference Documents and Applicable Documents that are outlined in Exhibit A - GLIMR Statement of Work (SOW) and Exhibit C – Access to Space Requirements Documents (ATSRD). See below (Page 6) for full list of documentation included in each Exhibit.

The Reference Documents found in Exhibit A – SOW, are not required for contract performance, but should be used for information only, as applicable, throughout the duration of the contract. Reference Documents not provided under this solicitation will be provided post-award.

Applicable Documents found in Exhibit C- ATSRD, are required documents for the contractor to utilize during contract performance. The baseline D4957031-500 GLIMR Instrument Installation Control Drawing (IICD) and preliminary GLIMR-06-002 GLIMR Payload to GLIMR Spacecraft Definition Document (IDD) applicable to the Exhibit C-ATSRD are attached to this RFP. The other Applicable Documents, not provided with this solicitation, are publicly available. The preliminary version of GLIMR-06-002 GLIMR Payload to GLIMR Spacecraft Interface Definition Document (IDD), will be replaced with the baseline IDD post-award.

M.4.2 Factor 2 – Technical Approach/Oral Presentation

(a) The Government will evaluate the Offeror’s oral presentation to gain a clear understanding of the Offeror’s ability to meet the requirements described in provision L.16(c).

(b) Offerors may receive a more favorable evaluation if their Technical Approach/Oral Presentation demonstrates innovative, practical approaches or techniques that provide a clear and measurable benefit to the Government in achieving mission outcomes and reducing the time to science. The determination of what constitutes such benefit rests solely with the Government and its evaluation team.

(c) The Government’s assessment will be based solely on the content of the oral presentation itself. Should the Offeror elect to utilize slides or other supporting materials during the oral presentation as a visual aide, the team will review the content presented during the presentation to ensure it aligns with the orally presented Technical Approach.

Slides and any other supporting material will not be separately evaluated under Factor 2. Inconsistencies between the slides or other supporting material and content orally presented may reduce the Government’s confidence under Factor 2.

(d) Factor 2 Adjectival Ratings: The Technical Approach/Oral Presentation factor is not numerically weighted or scored. The Government will assign an adjectival rating in accordance with Table 4.2-1.

TABLE 4.2-1

Rating Definition

Excellent A comprehensive and thorough proposal of exceptional merit with one or more significant strengths. No deficiency or significant weakness exists.

Very Good A proposal having no deficiency and which demonstrates overall competence. One or more significant strengths have been found, and strengths outbalance any weaknesses that exist.

Good A proposal having no deficiency which shows a reasonably sound response. There may be strengths or weaknesses, or both. As a whole, weaknesses not off set by strengths do not significantly detract from the offeror’s response.

Fair A proposal having no deficiency and which has one or more weaknesses. Weaknesses outbalance any strengths.

Poor A proposal that has one or more deficiencies or significant weaknesses that demonstrate a lack of overall competence or would require a major proposal revision to correct.

(e) Findings Definitions for Technical Approach/Oral Presentation:

In accordance with FAR 15.001, Deficiency, Weakness and Significant Weakness are defined as follows:

Deficiency: Any part of an offer that does not conform to a material requirement of a RFP. A material requirement is one that affects price, quantity, quality or delivery, or that the RFP requires to be met at the time of proposal submission.

Weakness: A flaw in the proposal that increases the risk of unsuccessful contract performance.

Significant Weakness: A flaw in the proposal that appreciably increases the risk of unsuccessful contract performance.

The definitions for Strength and Significant Strength are not defined in the FAR; however, the following definitions will be used:

Strength: An aspect of the proposal that will have a positive impact on the successful performance of the contract.

Significant Strength: An aspect of the proposal that greatly enhances the potential for successful contract performance.
