52.212-1, Instructions to Offerors – Commercial

8. The following provisions are incorporated by full-text.

52.212-1, Instructions to Offerors – Commercial, Addendum, applies to this acquisition.

(1) FAR 52.212-1, paragraph (b)(8), is changed to read:

(8) Offerors must include a completed copy of the provision at 52.212-3, Offeror Representations and Certifications -- Commercial Items, with its offer.

(2) FAR 52.212-1, paragraph (c), is changed to read:

(c) Period for acceptance of offers. The offeror agrees to hold prices in its offer firm for 90 calendar days from the date specified for receipt of offers.

(3) To be considered for this requirement, the offer must complete the Bid Schedule (see paragraph 4). Fully complete the pricing on each CLIN as required. The contractor shall fill out a unit price, the extended price and a total price for all CLINs. Please ensure that all prices, extended prices and total prices are checked and verified for accuracy. DO NOT go two (2) digits beyond the decimal point.

(4) In accordance with FAR Part 9, Contractor Qualifications, past performance information will be used to determine whether an offeror has a satisfactory performance record to determine whether the offeror is a responsible contractor eligible for contract award.

An offeror determined to have an unsatisfactory performance record will be determined non-responsible, therefore, the offeror will not be eligible for contract award.

In the case of an offeror without a record of relevant past performance or for whom information on past performance is not available, the offeror will not be evaluated favorably or unfavorably on past performance.

The Government has a right to retrieve additional past performance information through the Government’s past performance databases, Federal Awardee Performance Integrity Information System (FAPIIS) and Past Performance Information Retrieval System (PPIRS).

52.212-2, Evaluation -- Commercial Items, (Jan 1999)

Award will be made to the Offeror whose Acceptable Technical Proposal represents the Best Value to the Government. Best Value will be determined by the Lowest Priced Technically Acceptable proposal. Offers will be rated by technical acceptability and award will be made to the lowest priced offer.

(1) The evaluation team will evaluate each offer on its merits and assign one of the following ratings to each offer.

Technical Acceptable/Unacceptable Ratings

Price. The Government shall conduct a price evaluation of all offers. The Government will evaluate an offer by adding the total price for all CLINs. The Government may use various price analysis techniques and procedures to ensure a fair, reasonable and realistic price. Evaluation of prices will determine if they are compatible with the scope of the effort, are not unbalanced and are neither excessive nor insufficient for the effort to be accomplished. It is expected that the competitive nature of this acquisition will drive price reasonableness and fairness; however, the Government reserves the right, if it deems appropriate, to make these determinations by means of one or more price analysis techniques.

a. Contract(s) may be awarded to the offeror who is deemed responsible in accordance with the FAR Part 9.1, whose offer conforms to the solicitation’s requirements (to include all stated terms, conditions, representations, certifications, and all other information required by this RFQ) and is judged, based on the evaluation to represent the best value offer.

The Government intends to evaluate proposals and award 1 (one) contract without discussions with offerors. Therefore, the offeror’s initial proposal should contain the offeror’s best terms. The Government reserves the right to conduct discussions if the Contracting Officer later determines them to be necessary. If the Contracting Officer determines that the number of proposals that would otherwise be in the competitive range exceeds the number at which an efficient competition can be conducted, the Contracting Officer may limit the number of proposals in the competitive range to the greatest number that will permit an efficient competition among the most highly rated proposals.

While the Government will strive for maximum objectivity, the selection process, by its nature, is subjective; and therefore, professional judgment is implicit throughout the entire process.

b. A written notice of award or acceptance of an offer, mailed or otherwise furnished to the successful offeror within the time for acceptance specified in the offer, shall result in a binding contract without further action by either party. Before the offer’s specified expiration time, the Government may accept an offer (or part of an offer), whether or not there are negotiations after its receipt, unless a written notice of withdrawal is received before award.

PERFORMANCE WORK STATEMENT

FOR

CATHOLIC PRIEST SERVICES

AT

NELLIS AFB, NV

Catholic Priest Services

Table of Contents

SECTION I

The contractor shall coordinate efforts with Chaplain Corps personnel and work in a multi-denominational and pluralistic religious environment to include, but not limited to, Catholic, Protestant, Jewish, Orthodox, and Islamic faiths. Department of Defense Instruction 1300.17 Accommodation of Religious Practices within the Military Services states that “the DoD places a high value on the rights of members of the Military Services to observe the tenets of their respective religions or to observe no religion at all.” The Air Force similarly places a high value on religious accommodation in a pluralistic environment and holds that spiritual health is fundamental to the well-being of Air Force personnel and their families. For these reasons the contractor must refrain from proselytizing (seeking to convert someone to the contractor’s faith). If asked, the contractor can respond to questions about his faith, but should not evangelize those of other faiths. The contractor should make every effort to accommodate individuals of other faiths by assisting them to contact a chaplain. The contractor may not denigrate any faith group or offer literature that denigrates other beliefs.

The contractor must be aware that he is performing the duties under this contract in a military environment. At all times the contractor should show respect to military customs and traditions. The COR is an excellent resource should questions concerning military customs or traditions arise.

Consistent with operational contingencies and mission essential requirements, the contractor must be freely available for active duty Catholics, family members and other authorized personnel seeking his counsel. Since this is a primary mission responsibility, the contractor’s access to work spaces conducive to confidential counsel or confession is a mission-essential requirement. Military personnel and their family members have a right to privileged communication. The contractor must provide spiritual counseling IAW DoD guidelines regarding privileged communication.

Privileged communication is protected communication IAW Military Rule of Evidence 503. Under this rule, “a person has a privilege to refuse to disclose and to prevent another from disclosing a confidential communication by the person to a clergyman or to a clergyman’s assistant, if such communication is made either as a formal act of religion or as a matter of conscience.” The contractor shall complete annual training on privileged communication provided by the chapel staff.

Roman Catholic clergy who are contractors are not chaplains and will not use the duty title of “chaplain”. The contractor shall not use the duty title of chaplain while performing services, to include but not limited to printed documents and electronic communications. Similarly, the contractor will refrain from unit engagement and leadership advisement, which are responsibilities, which can only be performed by military chaplains.

Special Event Mass dates and times are subject to change.

1.7 Historical Data. The tasks described above have been performed in the past by one (1) full-time equivalent employee.

1.8 Minimum Qualifications.

1.8.1 Employee Certifications. The Contractor shall make sure employees and/or Sub-Contractor have current and valid Faculties to obtain AMS faculties within ten (10) business days before the start of contract performance. The Contractor is responsible for all internal employee training (except AMS Convocation) at no additional cost to the Government.

1.9.1 Below is a list of deliverables under this contract.

1.9.2 Contractor Manpower Reporting Application (eCMRA).

The contractor shall report ALL contractor labor hours (including subcontractor labor hours) required for performance of services provided under this contract via the secure data collection site (i.e. eCMRA). The contractor shall register in eCMRA within 30 days of contract award. The contractor is required to completely fill in all required data fields using the following web address http://www.ecmra.mil. Reporting inputs will be for the labor executed during the period of performance during each government fiscal year (FY), which runs 1 October through 30 September. While inputs may be reported any time during the FY, all data shall be reported no later than 31 October of each calendar year. Contractors may direct questions to the above eCMRA help desk.

Information from the secure web site is considered to be proprietary in nature when the contract number and contractor identity are associated with the direct labor hours and direct labor dollars. At no time will any data be released to the public with the contractor name and contract number associated with the data. Data for Air Force service requirements must be input at the Air Force eCMRA link. However, user manuals for government personnel and contractors are available at the eCMRA link at http://www.ecmra.mil.

SECTION II

2.0 Service Summary (SS)

2.1 General

The contractor service requirements are summarized into performance objectives that relate directly to mission essential items. The performance threshold briefly describes the minimum acceptable levels of service required for each requirement. These thresholds are critical to mission success but do not represent all contract performance requirements. All contract performance requirements in this PWS will be monitored.

2.2 Performance Evaluation

Performance of a service shall be evaluated to determine whether or not it meets the performance requirements of this contract. Re-performance of unacceptable services at no additional cost is the preferred course of action when appropriate. In the case of issued Corrective Action Reports (CARs), the Contracting Officer (CO) shall take appropriate measures according to inspection of services clause in the contract, i.e., FAR 52.246-4, 52.246-5, or 52.212-4(a).
