2.0 Caution Personnel Changes

Offerors are required to verify and ensure the continuing availability of personnel for whom resumes have been submitted. If any personnel substitutions/changes occur or are made prior to submission of final proposal revisions, providing the Government has decided to open discussions, the offeror shall immediately notify the Contracting

Officer (CO) of such change(s) and amend its proposal accordingly. Failure to do so may render the proposal unacceptable.

3.0 Discrepancies

If an offeror believes the requirements in these instructions contain an error, omission, or are otherwise unsound, the offeror shall immediately notify the CO, in writing, with supporting rationale as well as the remedies the offeror is asking the CO to consider as related to the omission or error. The offeror is reminded the Government reserves the right to award this effort based on the initial proposal, as received, without discussion. This reservation includes matters of additional or substitute pages of the initial proposal.

4.0 Evaluation

Offers will be evaluated using the factors and subfactors in Section M, Evaluation Factors for Award. Non-compliance with the RFP may be grounds to eliminate the proposal from consideration for contract award. Offerors are advised proposals are presumed to represent the offeror’s best efforts and most complete responses to this solicitation. Cursory responses or responses which merely reiterate the Performance-Based Work Statement (PWS) will be considered unacceptable. Demonstration of capability and qualifications that clearly support the offeror’s claims are essential. The absence of such evidence will adversely influence evaluation of the proposal.

L – 0004 INSTRUCTIONS FOR PREPARATION OF PROPOSALS

1.0 General

1.1 Instructions – Instructions contained herein are for preparing proposals and providing data and presentations to the Government in response to this solicitation.

http://www.fedbizopps.gov/

1.2 Compliance – Proposals must comply fully with these instructions. Proposals which fail to do so may be rejected as non-responsive. Proposals shall include all of the information requested in these instructions.

1.3 Electronic Copies – In addition to the paper copies required by Table L-0004-1, the entire proposal shall be submitted on a virus-free CD-ROM in electronic file formats compatible with Microsoft Office 2003 or higher applications.

Number, Volume Title, and Date. Use separate folders / files to permit rapid location of all portions, including subfactors, exhibits, annexes, and attachments, if any. Do not password protect or compress files. In the event there are any discrepancies between the hard copies and electronic copies of a proposal, the hard copies will be used for evaluation. Additionally, submit a separate CD-ROM containing only Volume III proposal information either to arrive with the Volume III proposal submission or separately to arrive at the same time and location identified in

Section L-0003, Paragraph 6.0 and 7.0. Replacement CD-ROMs will be required if the proposal is revised or if a final proposal revision is requested.

1.4 Cost/Pricing - All cost or pricing information shall be addressed ONLY in the Cost/Price Proposal and

Contractor Bid or Proposal Information and Source Selection Information.

2.1.2 Clarity of Proposal - The proposal shall be clear, concise, and include sufficient detail for effective evaluation and for substantiating the validity of stated claims. The proposal should not simply rephrase or restate the Government’s requirements, but rather provide convincing rationale to address how the offeror intends to meet these requirements. Offerors shall assume that the Government has no prior knowledge of the offeror’s facilities and experience, and will base its evaluation on the information presented in the offeror’s proposal.

2.1.3 Cross-Referencing- To the greatest extent possible, each volume shall be written on a stand-alone basis so that its contents may be evaluated with a minimum of cross-referencing to other volumes of the proposal.

Information required for proposal evaluation that is not found in its designated volume will be assumed to have been omitted from the proposal. Cross-referencing within a proposal volume is permitted where it would conserve space without impairing clarity.

2.1.4 Glossary - Each volume shall contain a glossary of all abbreviations and acronyms used, and with an explanation for each. Glossaries do not count against the page limitations for their respective volumes.

2.1.5 Illustrations and Tables - Proposals shall be prepared on 8 ½ x 11-inch paper except for foldouts used for charts, illustrations, tables, or diagrams, which may not exceed 11 x 17 inches.

2.1.6 Indexing - Each volume shall contain a detailed Table of Contents to identify the section and paragraph subjects within that volume. Tab indexing shall be used to separate and identify both Volumes and Sections. Tab indexes should remain in place when binders are placed in a vertical position in a storage cabinet

2.1.7 Page - A page is defined as each face of an 8 ½ x 11-inch sheet of paper containing information. Page margins shall be a minimum of 1-inch each for the top, bottom and sides. All material shall be contained within the page limitations in Table L-0004-1 of this section. The page limitations shall be treated as maximum limits to assist in the evaluation of each proposal. Total page count will be based on the printed proposal submission. If page limitations are exceeded, the excess pages will not be read or considered in the evaluation of the proposal and will not be returned to the offeror. Double-sided printing is acceptable, but counts as two (2) pages. Number pages sequentially by volume. The background color of each page of the proposal submission shall be white or ivory paper only.

4.0 Mission Capability – Technical - Operations and Maintenance

4.1 Offerors shall submit a proposal that addresses:

4.1.1 Proposed plan for meeting the Operations and Maintenance requirements as outlined in the PWS.

5.0 Mission Capability – Technical - Mission Support

5.1 Offerors shall submit a proposal that addresses:

5.1.1 Proposed plan for meeting the Mission Support requirements as outlined in the PWS.

L – 0007 VOLUME III – PRESENT AND PAST PERFORMANCE

1.1 Each offeror shall submit a past performance volume with its proposal, containing past performance information in accordance with the format contained in Attachment 9, “Present and Past Performance Citations.”

This information is required on the offeror and all subcontractors, teaming partners, and/or joint venture partners who are proposed to perform 20 percent or more of the proposed effort based on the total proposed price or perform aspects of the effort the offeror considers critical to overall successful performance. Offerors are cautioned that the

Government will use data provided by each offeror in this volume and data obtained from other sources in the evaluation of past performance.

1.2 Present and past performance information submitted shall be recent and relevant. Recent is defined as work completed or ongoing during the five (5) years prior to the Government due date for proposal Volume III, Present and Past Performance. The Government is not bound by the offeror’s opinion of relevancy or quality, and will perform an independent assessment of relevancy and quality of the data provided or obtained. If the offeror has no recent or relevant past performance information, this should be documented in Volume III. The Government reserves the right to determine whether any relevant present or past performance information exists and its relevancy, notwithstanding the alleged absence thereof by any offeror.

1.3 Specific Contract References – Citations. In the “Contract Number” block, reference the Prime Contract and all applicable Order Number(s) ((Task Order(TO) / Delivery Order (DO) / Blanket Ordering Agreement (BOA)

Order / Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) Order, etc.) that corresponds to the information / work effort provided in the “Description of Effort” and/or “Period of Performance” blocks on the Citation. Additionally, each Order referenced in the “Contract Number” block and/ or through work description provided in the “Description of Effort” block shall count as one (1) Citation each, even though combined on one (1) Citation form. For example, a Citation identified in the Contract Number block FA0021-12-D-8888 references only TO 0007; however, the offeror includes information/work effort in the “Description of Effort” block for performance covering three (3) TOs (0007, 0015, and 0031, to include follow-on efforts). In this example, although only one (1) Order (TO 0007) is referenced by the offeror in the “Contract Number” block, the “Description of Effort” block includes effort from three (3) Orders;

therefore, the one (1) Citation shall count as three (3) Citations because work effort from three (3) Orders is discussed in the “Description of Effort.” The same rule applies to General Services Administration (GSA) Schedule contract Citations. In summary, “Contract Number,” “Period of Performance,” and “Description of Effort” information must all match; and, each Order (TO / DO / BOA / BPA) performance provided shall count as one (1)

Citation each even if all the information for several orders is combined on one (1) Citation form.

1.4 Organizational Structure Change History. Many companies have acquired, been acquired by, or otherwise merged with other companies, and/or reorganized their divisions, business groups, subsidiary companies, etc. In many cases, these changes have taken place during the time of performance of relevant present or past efforts or between the conclusion of recent past efforts and this request for proposal. As a result, it is sometimes difficult to determine what past performance is relevant to this acquisition. To facilitate this relevancy determination, include in this proposal a “roadmap” describing all such changes in organization for the offeror, joint venture partner(s) and proposed major subcontractors. As part of this explanation, show how these changes impact the relevance of any efforts you identify for past performance evaluation / performance confidence assessment. Since the Government intends to consider present and past performance information provided by other sources as well as that provided by the offeror(s), your “roadmap” should be both specifically applicable to the identified efforts and general enough to apply to efforts on which the Government receives information from other sources.

Past Performance Citation in Atch 9 and the Present and Past Performance Questionnaire Recipient List in Atch 11.

At least two of the three “Present and Past Performance Citations” shall be relevant and recent work performed by the offeror. Multi-functional companies must limit the “Present and Past Performance Citations” to work performed by the division, group or unit that is proposed to perform the work for JTAC/SUAS Program Management. The number of Citations listed in the Relevancy matrix will not exceed the maximum number allowed by Section L-

0007, Paragraph 2.1.2. The Government will consider each example in accordance with the relevancy criteria in

Section M. The Government will perform an independent assessment of relevancy of the data provided by the offeror or obtained from other sources. The Government’s Present and Past Performance evaluation team may also enter additional data if available from other sources.

The following is provided as instruction in completing the Relevancy Matrix provided at Atch 8.

Contract References Columns:

9 to the RFP, or submit a modified version as long as all information included on the sample at Atch 9 is included and easy to locate on the offeror’s modified form. Each Citation shall be assigned a Citation number, and this

Citation Number will be the same as used on the relevancy matrix at Atch 8 and Present and Past Performance

Questionnaire Recipient List at Atch 11. The Citation shall provide frank, concise comments regarding relevancy and quality of performance of the referenced Contract Number, and if applicable, each order (TO / DO / BOA /

BPA) identified. The “Contract Number” block shall be completed as described in Section L-0008, Paragraph 1.3.

If specific orders (TO / DO / BOA / BPA) are identified, the “Period of Performance” and “Contract Value” blocks shall address the Order(s) identified. Each Citation does not have to start on a new page. Offeror shall submit no more than three (3) Present and Past Performance Citations. NOTE: Offerors may choose to cite individual and specific projects performed under one non-order (TO / DO / BOA / BPA) effort with multiple Citations; however;

each Citation counts toward the 3 Citation limit, and Citations combined will count as one Citation for purposes of calculating the requirement in Section M-6.3, Paragraph 2.1.1 that states, “At least two of the three "Present and Past

Performance Citations" shall be relevant and recent work performed by the offeror.”

2.1.2.1 “Description of Effort” instructions: (Cross reference below information with Mission Capability Factor -

Subfactors 1, 2, and 3). The “Description of Effort” block shall only reflect work performed under the “Contract

Number” and, if applicable, the order(s) (TO / DO / BOA / BPA) identified in the “Contract Number” block of the

Citation. The narrative description shall address the following:

2.1.2.1.1 General description of the program/project, and any technical (or other) area about this contract/program considered unique.

2.1.2.1.2 How your experience on this program is relevant to the applicable subfactors under Factor 1 Mission

Capability - Technical in Section M.

2.1.2.1.3 Specify, by name, any key individual(s) who participated in this program and are proposed to support the instant acquisition. Also, indicate their contractual roles for both acquisitions.

2.1.2.1.4 Describe the nature or portion of the work on the proposed effort to be performed by the business entity being reported here. Also, estimate the percentage of the total proposed effort to be performed by this entity and whether this entity will be performing as a prime, subcontractor, or a corporate division related to the prime (define relationship).

2.1.2.1.5 Include information on Quality Assurance Program or effort; security requirements for the effort, and identification of security problems / violations, if any; performance incentives and/or award fee earned vs. total award fee pool; management program in achieving program goals and schedules; cost control including any under runs or overruns, cost incentives earned or lost, etc.; and compliance with FAR 52.219-8, Utilization of Small

Business Concerns, on the contract submitted.

2.1.2.1.6 The narrative description shall describe major program risks for the Present and Past Performance referenced. For program risks that resulted in problems, describe how the problems were identified and resolved, what measures were taken to prevent recurrence, and management indicators that clearly support the problem was solved. For major program risks that did not result in problems, describe how proactive risk management techniques prevented problems. Program risks are defined as potential negative program events, and problems are defined as actual negative program events. Providing present and past performance efforts where many program risks resulted in problems is not considered a weakness unless the offeror did not demonstrate the ability to overcome the problems encountered.

2.1.2.2 Joint Venture Partners shall specifically identify the managing partner and other partners. Subcontractor /

Teaming Partner shall identify Prime Contractor.

2.1.3 CPARS or other performance reports may be provided as attachments to the citation at the discretion of the offeror; however, they will be counted toward the total page count.

2.1.4 Consent Letters. Past performance information concerning subcontractors and teaming partners cannot be disclosed to a private party without the subcontractor's or teaming partner's consent. Because a prime contractor is a private party, the Government will need that consent before disclosing subcontractor/teaming partner past and present performance information to the prime during exchanges. In an effort to assist the Government's Past

Performance Evaluation Team (PPET) in assessing your past performance relevancy and confidence, have the major subcontractors/teaming partners identified in your proposal complete the Consent Letter and submit them as part of your Past Performance Volume. (Ref RFP Atch 10)

2.1.5 Present and Past Performance Recipient List. Complete all information required on the “Present and Past

Performance Recipient List” at Atch 11 to the RFP. Each Citation shall be assigned a Citation number, and this

Citation Number will be the same as used on the relevancy matrix at Atch 8 and Present and Past Performance

Citation at Atch 9. The PPET will make reasonable efforts to obtain completed Present and Past Performance

Questionnaires from the evaluators that were identified by the offeror. Please ensure you follow-up with the evaluators you selected to ensure they provide us the completed Questionnaires on a timely basis to meet solicitation due date requirements. If the PPET has received no response for the Past Performance Questionnaires by the due date, the PPET intends to score the survey neither favorably nor unfavorably.

2.1.6 Present and Past Performance Questionnaires (w/Transmittal Letter) – The Government requests the offeror send out Present and Past Performance Questionnaires (Ref RFP Atch 7), with attached Transmittal Letter from the

CO, to the Points of Contact (POCs) identified in the citation familiar with each present and past performance reference. Completed questionnaires shall be submitted directly to the CO at the address provided on the form on or before the due date of Volumes I, II, IV, and V. ***Responses submitted through the offeror will not be accepted. Once the Present and Past Performance Questionnaires are completed by the POCs, the information contained therein shall be considered sensitive and shall not be released to the offeror. The offeror may include their own cover letter requesting completion of the questionnaire in addition to the transmittal letter provided. To expedite receipt of completed questionnaires, it is highly desired that offeror’s POC return the questionnaire via fax to Jonathan Cansdale at (850) 884-2476 on or before the proposal due date of Volumes 1, II, IV, and V. If POC does not have fax capability, questionnaires may be mailed to:

Attn: Jonathan Cansdale

427 Cody Ave, Bldg 90333, 2 nd

Floor

Hurlburt Field, FL 32544-5407

Note: When questionnaires are mailed, the envelope shall be marked “TO BE OPENED BY ADDRESSEE

ONLY.” Please note that on-base mail delivery services may be contractor-supported.

L – 0008 VOLUME IV – COST / PRICE

The offeror shall submit on virus-free CD ROMs, in digital format compatible with Microsoft Office 2003 applications Excel/Word or higher, support data to facilitate an analysis and evaluation of the proposed cost to include specific items identified in Section M of this RFP. Do not compress files. DO NOT password protect CD

ROM files. Include footnotes or cross references to specific support data that justify the amount proposed for each cost element (Labor, Fringe, G&A, OH, etc.). This cost documentation is required to facilitate the Government's determination of cost reasonableness and realism. Since this is a competitive acquisition, with adequate price competition anticipated, the cost documentation is considered other than cost or pricing data and shall not be certified in accordance with FAR Part 15.406-2. Should adequate price competition not exist after receipt of proposals, the provisions of FAR Part 15.403-4 shall apply, and the offeror will be asked to provide certification of cost or pricing data. Any updates, amendments, or modifications to the “Cost Proposal Workbooks” (Ref RFP Atch

6) originally submitted should be in the same media format, and include, or be accompanied by, a clear, concise explanation of such changes significant to the negotiation process and to the proposal.
