Request for Proposal (RFP) DJJP-17-RFP-1022 Amendment 0004

1. This Amendment makes the following changes to the RFP:

a. Section 4.4.5 (a) (1) and (2): Changes the Quality Assurance and Quality Controls Statement of Work Requirements

b. Section 24.3.3 (c): Revises the proposal due date to read June 5, 2017. The time set for proposal receipt remains unchanged.

c. Section 24.3.5.2 C, TAB E: Changes the Instructions to Offerors regarding submission requirements for Technical Certifications.

d. Section 24.3.5.3 C TAB B (a), third paragraph regarding Technical Proficiency: Deletes the phrase, “as applicable” and corrects numbering within the paragraph.

e. Section 24.4.1 (ii): Changes language regarding Evaluation Criteria and Selection Factors.

f. Section 24.4.1 A Phase 1 TAB E: Changes language regarding Technical Certifications.

2. In addition to the above, the following clarifications are made:

a. Regarding Past Performance Questionnaires: Offerors are not required to have references re-submit any past performance questionnaires that were previously submitted. The past performance questionnaire was updated to remove the word, “code” since it isn’t required and was reissued in Word format based solely on an industry question which requested it.

b. There have been a total of five (5) change notices issued on this RFP. The first provided an updated pricing spreadsheet. The second extended the due date of proposals. The third notified offerors that the due date for receipt of proposals would be extended, with the new date being established with release of the questions and answers and RFP changes. The fourth issued Amendment 0003 which provided Government responses to Industry questions, made changes to the RFP as a result of the questions, and established a new date for receipt of proposals. The fifth is this Amendment 0004.

c. Many offerors had already had their references submit past performance questionnaires to the Government prior to the issuance of Amendment 0003 (which reduced the number required for major subcontractors). Follow-on questions inquired as to whether or not offerors would be considered non-compliant for submitting more questionnaires than is now required by the RFP. The answer is no, they will not be considered non-compliant.

d. Duplicative questions were not included in the questions and answers released in Amendment 0003.
