B.1 SERVICES AND PRICES

B.1 DESCRIPTION OF SERVICES:

The Contractor shall provide the personnel, equipment, and other materials and services necessary to perform the effort described in Section C, Statement of Objectives (SOO).

B.2 GENERAL DESCRIPTION:

PBGC intends to establish a single-award IDIQ for these services. Task Orders will be issued on a Firm Fixed-Price (FFP), Time and Materials (TM), or Labor Hour (LH) basis or a hybrid of one or more of FP, LH or TM, depending upon the requirements of PBGC.

PBGC expects to award two (2) task orders concurrent with the IDIQ award.

B.3 MINIMUM AND MAXIMUM AMOUNTS:

The minimum quantity of services that the Government will acquire under this contract is $1,000,000.00 over the entire period of performance (including any options exercised).

The maximum quantity of services that the Government will acquire under this contract shall not exceed $100,000,000.00 over the entire period of performance and applies to the aggregate value of all Task Orders.

B.4 IDIQ PRICING SCHEDULE:

The offeror shall specify the hourly rate for each labor category for the given period. The hourly rate for each category shall include direct labor, all indirect costs, and profit. The offeror shall specify those cost elements which are anticipated to be charged as other direct costs (ODCs) under the contract. It is PBGC's assumption that all administrative charges (such as timekeeping, invoice preparation, etc.) shall be charged as general & administrative expenses and included in the labor rate. Offerors are required to describe the timekeeping and accounting system used by the firm to record hours worked and costs associated with a PBGC contract. The price schedule below is inclusive of all Contractor costs (direct and indirect) for performing services outlined in the SOO.

The proposed hourly rates in the IDIQ Pricing Schedule below will become part of the contract award and will be binding for future task order proposals (i.e. proposed Task Order hourly rates may not exceed those specified in the IDIQ Pricing Schedule) for the base year and four option year periods.

The FFP task orders will use the rates in the IDIQ Pricing Schedule in developing the labor price build up for the task. The contractor is encouraged to propose lower rates at the task order level.

Failure to provide pricing for every labor category will result in the Offeror’s proposal being deemed incomplete and the Offeror’s proposal will not be eligible for award.

Travel and per diem costs are not reimbursable under this IDIQ.

PAGE 6 OF 39 16PBGC18R00030002

Offerors are required to submit a price proposal which shall include prices for a base year and four option years for all labor categories established in Section H Labor Category Descriptions and Qualifications.

PAGE 7 OF 39 16PBGC18R00030002

Sample IDIQ Pricing Schedule

The following sample should be used by the offerors as a guide to provide the minimum required information for labor pricing under the IDIQ for the base and option periods. This represents only a model. Offerors should include pricing for all labor categories and levels included as part of the proposal. Offerors may provide additional detail should that be needed to describe their pricing model (e.g. discounts, other considerations).

Offerors must also describe their approach to responding to and managing future Task Orders. An Offeror who simply states they will perform the work and complete the requirement will be considered non-responsive and subsequently will be determined technically non-compliant and be eliminated from further consideration for award. Additionally, simply repeating the language set out in the solicitation will be considered insufficient.

For program and task order management under the IDIQ, the offeror must clearly describe its approach to those program management activities listed in the SOO Section 2.1

Descriptions shall demonstrate the knowledge that key personnel have gained through completed and ongoing efforts on similar programs. "Similar programs" is meant to convey similarity in subject matter, dollar value, and complexity as related to work described in the IDIQ task areas.

In order to meet the requirements of the IDIQ, the contractor should assess and propose the Key Personnel deemed appropriate. The contractor is not limited in the number of Key Personnel they can offer, but shall propose at least one IDIQ Program Manager as key personnel.

Factor 3 – Staffing and Management Approach

It is anticipated that resources will be shared across areas and tasks. The offeror shall identify the minimum labor categories and associated experience/education levels. Additional labor categories can be included beyond the minimum listed. The staffing plan should include its management approach and, at a minimum, address the following:

1. Overall approach strategy to be used for staffing and task order management across tasks

2. Approach to staffing task orders as they are issued or completed. For example, as new tasks are awarded, how will the offeror quickly bring on new, experienced staff to ensure consistency of delivery. As projects are completed, how will the offeror ensure transition to operations and maintenance activities

PAGE 18 OF 39 16PBGC18R00030002

3. Describe the offeror’s reach back capability

4. While Task Order #1 and Task Order #2 include the initial transition, operations and release development for three FMS systems, it is anticipated that additional task orders will be issued to provide for operations and maintenance of all systems, multiple releases and potentially concurrent large IT development efforts. The Offeror must describe what a full staffing model would look like should task orders be issued covering operations for all systems with multiple concurrent release and development efforts.
