Solicitation No. DTRT5716R20001 Amendment No. 000002

The purpose of this amendment is to make the following changes to Solicitation

DTRT5716R20001:

1. The slides from the May 19, 2016 Pre-Proposal Webinar are attached to this amendment.

2. The list of attendees from the May 19, 2016 Pre-Proposal Webinar are attached to this amendment.

3. The Government received some questions prior to the pre-proposal webinar. The questions and Government responses are as follows:

A. Reference: L.5.D Section II, top of page 79. It is the responsibility of the Prime contractor to review and evaluate the subcontract proposals and document the reasonableness of the Subcontractors prices in accordance with FAR 15.404, as appropriate. accompanying cost or pricing data and furnish the results of such review to the Government as part of the cost submission, regardless of whether the details are provided to the Prime Offeror or separately to the Government. The Prime's review should be as detailed as the information provided by the subcontractor directly to the Prime permits.

Question: Due to the proprietary nature of much of the cost and pricing data that the Government requires our Subcontractors to submit as part of our Cost/Business proposal, and the fact that the prime contractor is not an auditing firm, we respectfully request that the Government delete the requirement for the prime to review our subcontractors’ proprietary cost information. We respectfully request the Government consider deleting the above-referenced highlighted language from the RFP and add suggested language in bold italicized text. As the prime contractor, we will not be privy to our Subcontractors’ proprietary information; however, we intend to document the reasonableness of the Subcontractors prices in accordance with FAR 15.404, as appropriate

Response: The highlight text will not be deleted. FAR 15.404-3 (Subcontractor Pricing Considerations) requires offerors to:

(1) Conduct appropriate cost or price analyses to establish the reasonableness of proposed subcontract prices;

(2) Include the results of these analyses in the price proposal; and

(3) When required, submit subcontractor certified cost or pricing data to the Government as part of its own certified cost or pricing data.

However if the offeror follows FAR 15.404 as proscribed in conducting cost or price analysis of its subcontractor’s as required, the Prime will have met its burden thereunder.

Solicitation No. DTRT5716R20001 Amendment No. 000002

B. Reference: L.5.E SECTION III – Business Proposal (Volume I), Subcontract Consent (Page 80), second paragraph: “Offerors are reminded that the successful Offeror, not the Government, will have a contract with any proposed subcontractor(s). The Offeror has the duty to document the reasonableness of the cost/price and to justify the placement of the subcontract even when information from a subcontractor is proprietary and must be submitted directly to the Government. It is the Prime’s duty to ensure that submissions to be made directly to the Government by any proposed subcontractor are, in fact, made. It is also primarily the Offeror’s duty and not the Government’s to ensure that the proposed fee under each subcontract is reasonable and does not exceed statutory limits. Other issues, such as unapproved accounting systems and indirect rates that are significantly lower or higher than rates approved for past years, must be resolved by the Offeror prior to the submission date for proposals. If ceilings on the indirect rates of a subcontractor are required, the Offeror must address this issue prior to the proposal submission date.”

Question: Due to the proprietary nature of much of the cost and pricing data that the Government requires our Subcontractors to submit as part of our Cost/Business proposal, and the fact that the prime contractor is not an auditing firm, we respectfully request that the Government delete the above-referenced highlighted language from the RFP. As the prime contractor, we will not be privy to our Subcontractors’ indirect rates but will document the reasonableness of the Subcontractors prices in accordance with FAR 15.404, as appropriate.

Response: The Government will not delete the highlighted text or relieve the Prime contractor of its burden to address the cost or price reasonableness of a subcontractor’s rates when using either cost or pricing data analysis in accordance with FAR 15.404 for determining placement of any subcontractor on the Prime contractor’s team. Offerors shall present cost or pricing analysis based on the information received and determine cost or price reasonableness as outlined under

FAR 15.404.

4. The due date and time for the submission of proposals remains unchanged.

5. Please acknowledge receipt of this amendment with the submission of your proposal.

6. All other terms and conditions of this solicitation remain unchanged.
