1 PROGRAM INFORMATION

1.1 Program Structure and Objectives

This acquisition is for the continued operation of the Air Force Primary Standards Laboratory (AFPSL) located in Heath, Ohio, and the development and distribution of calibration technical manuals for the Air Force Metrology Calibration Program (AFMETCAL). The AFPSL is the highest echelon metrology and calibration laboratory in the Air Force. It provides a critical link between the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and Air Force Precision Measurement Equipment Laboratories (PMELs) and houses a measurement capability in practically every measurement discipline with a precision and accuracy unequalled in the Air Force. The AFPSL complex consists of laboratories with rigid environmental controls necessary for precise measurements in many measurement disciplines. The AFPSL provides calibration services and exchange standards to Air Force PMELs. It is the sole source of Air Force measurement standards, base reference standards, and other highly specialized calibration services. The AFPSL’s functions ensure Air Force measurements are accurate, uniform, reliable, and traceable to NIST. Supplies, services, and tasks required for sustainment of calibration services by the AFPSL and technical order developments are listed below.

5 VOLUME III - PAST PERFORMANCE

5.1 Past Performance Information (PPI) Tool

Each offeror shall submit past performance via the Past Performance Information (PPI) Tool available on EZSource. Instructions for use of the PPI Tool are found in Attachment 2: Past Performance Information Tool Instructions.

5.2 Consent/Authorization Letters

Offerors shall submit a consent letter executed by each subcontractor, teaming partner, and/or joint venture partner, authorizing release of adverse past performance information to the offeror so the offeror can respond to such information. For each identified effort for a commercial customer, the offeror shall also submit a client authorization letter, authorizing release to the Government of requested information on the offeror's performance.

5.3 Early Proposal Information

Each offeror is requested to submit the past performance information using the PPI Tool for each relevant contract 10 calendar days prior to the date set for receipt of proposals. Failure to submit early proposal information will not result in offeror disqualification.

5.4 Recent and Relevant Contracts

Offeror shall submit past performance information on up to four (4) recent contracts that you consider most relevant in demonstrating your ability to perform the proposed effort. If the contract reference is from an IDIQ, each TO/DO counts as one contract reference. Offerors shall input all requested past performance data in the PPI Tool for each active or completed contract with at least one year of performance history in the past five (5) years, that the offeror considers relevant in demonstrating its ability to perform the proposed effort. Also include information on four (4) recent contracts performed by critical subcontractors that you consider most relevant in demonstrating their ability to perform the proposed effort. The Government considers a subcontractor to be “critical” if it will perform 10% or more of the work under the contract. For all submittals, the performance on efforts identified shall be restricted to those completed or ongoing during the past five (5) years from the issuance date of this RFP with at least one year of performance history. Include rationale supporting your assertion of relevance. For a description of the characteristics or aspects the Government will consider in determining recency and relevance, see Section M, paragraphs 2.3.2.1 and 2.3.2.2.

5.4.1 Specific Content

Offerors are required to explain what aspects of the contracts are deemed relevant to the proposed effort and to what aspects of the proposed effort they relate. This may include a discussion of efforts accomplished by the offeror to resolve problems encountered on prior contracts as well as past efforts to identify and manage program risk. Merely having problems does not automatically equate to an unacceptable/a limited or no confidence rating, since the problems encountered may have been on a more complex program, or an offeror may have subsequently demonstrated the ability to overcome the problems encountered. The offeror is required to clearly demonstrate management actions employed in overcoming problems and the effects of those actions in terms of improvements achieved or problems rectified. Categorize the relevant information into the specific Technical subfactors and Price factor used to evaluate the proposal.

5.4.2 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 past efforts or between conclusion of recent past efforts and this source selection. 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 volume a "roadmap" describing all such changes in the organization of your company. A pamphlet or other commercial document describing such reorganizations may suffice. 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 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 efforts you identify and general enough to apply to efforts on which the Government receives information from other sources.

6.0 VOLUME IV - PRICE

6.1 General Instructions

6.1.1 Price Reasonableness

This section is to assist you in submitting data other than certified pricing data that is required to evaluate the reasonableness and balance of your proposed price. Compliance with these requirements is mandatory and failure to comply may result in rejection of your proposal. Note that the Government will not conduct a price realism analysis but offerors should consult the Department of Labor wage determination and collective bargaining agreement attached in the solicitation. Additionally, unbalanced pricing poses an unacceptable risk to the Government and may be a reason to reject an offeror’s proposal. Offers should be sufficiently detailed to demonstrate their reasonableness and balance. The burden of proof for credibility of proposed prices rests with the offeror.

6.1.2 Banding

The CLIN structure in the solicitation provides banding on CLINs that are associated with a Firm Fixed Price w/Incentive. Offerors shall provide separate proposed prices on each band where designated in the solicitation. Offerors must provide pricing for all three bands in each FFP w/Incentive CLIN. For evaluation purposes and figuring Total Evaluated Price, the number for band 2 and the maximum possible incentive (8%) will be used as it covers the majority of the workload.

6.1.3 Price Data

Data beyond that required by this instruction shall not be submitted, unless you consider it essential to document or support your price position. All data relating to the proposed price, including all required supporting documentation, must be included in the section of the proposal designated as the Price volume. Data to includes CDRLs and DiDs are anticipated to be NSP, however, the labor hours to produce the data should be billed under the AFPSL Operations labor hour CLIN for each year. Under no circumstances shall this data and documentation be included elsewhere in the proposal.

6.1.4 Pricing Data Requirements

IAW FAR 15.403-1(b) and 15.403-3(a), data other than certified pricing data may be required to support a determination of price reasonableness. Data shall be provided IAW FAR 15.403-5. If, after receipt of proposals, the CO determines that there is insufficient data available to determine price reasonableness and none of the exceptions in FAR 15.403-1 apply, the offeror shall be required to submit additional pricing data, potentially to include certified cost or pricing data.

6.1.5 Rounding

All dollar amounts provided shall be rounded to the nearest dollar. All loaded labor rates shall be rounded to the nearest penny.

6.2 Volume Organization
