(IAW AFFARS 5309.507-2(b) )

(a) There is potential organizational conflict of interest (see FAR Subpart 9.5, Organizational and Consultant

Conflicts of Interest) with the SENSOR contract. The SSPARS contractor will be responsible for testing or providing technical evaluations of products delivered from the SENSOR program. Accordingly:

(1) Restrictions are needed to ensure that the Contractor is not testing or providing technical evaluations on its own products delivered to the SSPARS program.

(2) As a part of the proposal, the offeror shall provide the Contracting Officer with complete information of previous or ongoing work that is in any way associated with the contemplated acquisition. Prime or subcontract work related to the SENSOR contract may disqualify an offeror from proposing on

SSPARS.

(b) If award is made to the offeror, the resulting contract may include an organizational conflict of interest limitation applicable to subsequent Government work, at either a prime contract level, at any subcontract tier, or both. During evaluation of proposals, the Government may, after discussions with the offeror and consideration of ways to avoid the conflict of interest, insert a special provision in the resulting contract which shall disqualify the offeror from further consideration for award of future contracts, including

SMORS or its equivalent.

(c) The organizational conflict of interest clause included in this solicitation may be modified or deleted during negotiations.

(d) In order to determine whether or not an OCI actually exists, offerors with potential for OCI shall provide enough concrete detail so the Government can evaluate the actual nature of the work being performed, in order to determine whether or not the contractor’s perceived impaired objectivity is actually mitigated to an acceptable level. Plans shall address all potential types of OCI, including for the contractor’s divisions, affiliates and subcontractors/ teammates.

(e) If the offeror does not have any OCI related to SSPARS, submit a letter stating so.

(f) The offeror shall submit its OCI mitigation plan or non-OCI letter as part of Factor 4, “Price/Contract

Documents,” in accordance with L-5. D.4.b.15).

5315.3 and Informational Guidance (IG) 5315.404-3.

https://www.fbo.gov/ https://www.fbo.gov/ mailto:austin.frindt@us.af.mil mailto:kristen.weaver.2@us.af.mil

b. Offers will be evaluated using the factors and subfactors in Section M, Evaluation Factors for Award.

c. The Government intends to award using the Technical/Price Tradeoff (TPT) approach. Technical proposals will be evaluated and assigned combined technical/risk ratings which reflect the extent to which the proposal meets the Government’s specified performance and capability requirements, considering risk in conjunction with any relative strengths, weaknesses, significant weaknesses, uncertainties, and deficiencies associated with the proposed approach. The Government may award to a higher-priced offeror if it is determined by the Source Selection Authority (SSA) that the superior technical approach outweighs the price difference. All strengths from the winning offeror’s technical approach, the Small Business

Participation Commitment Document, and approved OCI Mitigation Plan (if applicable), will be incorporated into the contract as an attachment in Section J.

d. The offeror’s proposal must include all data and information requested. A proposal that is sufficiently documented to support performance claims in a complete and orderly manner will enable the Government to perform a thorough and fair evaluation. Any offeror who submits an incomplete package may be considered non-responsive. Non-compliance with the RFP may be grounds to eliminate the proposal from consideration for contract award.

e. The proposal shall be clear, concise, and shall include sufficient detail for effective evaluation and validation of stated claims. The proposal should not simply rephrase or restate the Government’s requirements, but rather shall provide convincing rationale to address how the offeror intends to meet these requirements. The absence of such convincing rationale will adversely influence evaluation of the proposal. Offerors shall assume that the Government has no prior knowledge of their facilities and experience, and will base its evaluation on the information presented in the offeror’s proposal. Elaborate brochures or documentation, binding, detailed art work, or other embellishments are unnecessary and are not desired.

f. The proposal acceptance period is specified in Block 12, Section A of the solicitation (SF33). The Offeror shall make a clear statement in Section A that the proposal is valid for a period of not less than 365 calendar days from receipt, and by signing the SF33, the offeror agrees to that period.

g. Proposals shall not contain classified information.

h. Alternate proposals will not be accepted.

i. In accordance with FAR Subpart 4.8 (Government Contract Files), the Government will retain one copy of all unsuccessful proposals. Unless the offeror requests otherwise, the Government will destroy extra copies of unsuccessful proposals.

2. Format Instructions. This section provides general guidance for preparing proposals as well as specific instructions on the format and content of the proposal. Each copy shall be complete in itself. The proposal should include all of the information requested in the subparagraphs. Failure to do so may adversely affect the evaluation.

A proposal that is sufficiently documented in a complete, orderly, and specific detailed manner will enable the

Government to perform a thorough and fair evaluation.

a. Proposal Copies and Binding. For ease of evaluation, the required proposal formats and extent of data are described below.

1) Binding. The original and each copy of the proposal will be separately bound in a standard loose-leaf, three-ring binder. The number of copies required is specified in Table 1 below. Elaborate format and binding are neither necessary nor desirable. All binders will lie flat when opened.

The cover and spine of each binder will clearly identify the offeror’s name, RFP number, RFP title

(i.e., SSPARS), and copy number (e.g., copy 2 of 6). The original for each binder will be clearly identified on the cover and the spine. All binders will allow for easy removal and replacement of pages.

2) Electronic Copies. The content and page size of electronic copies must be identical to the hard copies; if there is a discrepancy, the hard copy will take precedence. The electronic (softcopy) proposal shall be Microsoft Office 2003 compatible or later versions. The softcopy version of the proposal will be submitted on Digital Versatile Disk (DVD). Replacement disks will be required to update the final proposal resulting from any discussions and updates. Offerors are advised to perform a computer virus check prior to submission.

3) Proposal Organization, Number of Copies, and Page Limitations. Offerors’ proposals shall consist of four (4) separate factors: Factor 1 – Management, Factor 2 – Mission Maintenance, Factor 3 – Small Business Participation Commitment, and Factor 4 – Price/Contract Documents.

The titles and contents of each Factor should be as defined in this document, all of which shall be within the required page limits and with the number of copies as specified in the table below.

Total page count will be based on the printed proposal submission. If exceeded, the excess pages will not be read or considered in the evaluation of the proposal, but will be removed and returned to the offeror.

8) Change pages after initial proposal submission. If the offeror submits proposal revisions, during or after discussions, any changed pages that are submitted shall be a different color than the original proposal pages (color determined by the Contracting Officer at time of request), and shall have changed information clearly marked by a vertical line in the right margin of the page identifying the changed content. The date of the revision and revision number shall be reflected on each changed page (preferably on, or next to, the vertical change line). Make spreadsheet revisions obvious by highlighting cells that changed.

(Total contract cost is defined as the cumulative total cost of all the exercised options. For example, in the base period, before option year 1 is exercised, 25 percent of the total contract cost is 25 percent of the cost of the base period. Once option year 1 is exercised, 25 percent of the total contract cost is 25 percent of the total cost of the base period plus option year 1, and so on. The 25% calculation will be based on the cost of each option when it is exercised; subsequent additions to the contract cost during that year – i.e. IJOs – will not affect the 25% calculation.)

SECTION M

EVALUATION FACTORS FOR AWARD

M-1. FEDERAL ACQUISITION REGULATION (48CFR, CHAPTER 1) CLAUSES

52.217-5 Evaluation of Options Jul 1990

M-2. DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE FEDERAL ACQUISITION REGULATION (48 CFR, CHAPTER 2)

PROVISIONS

None at this time.

M-3. EVALUATION CRITERIA

A. AWARD WITHOUT DISCUSSIONS.

As set forth in FAR 52.215-1(f)(4) of Section L, the Government intends to award without discussions. The

Government may make a final determination as to whether the offeror’s proposal is acceptable or unacceptable solely on the basis of the initial proposal as submitted. Accordingly, offerors are advised to submit initial proposals that are fully and clearly acceptable without additional information or explanation and contain the offeror’s best terms from a technical and price stand point. The Government reserves the right to conduct discussions if the

Contracting Officer (CO) later determines them to be necessary.

B. BASIS FOR CONTRACT AWARD.

1. North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) Code. This acquisition will be conducted using full-and-open competition. The NAICS code is 517919 All Other Telecommunications, with a small business size standard of $32.5 million.

2. Competitive Best Value. This is a competitive best value source selection using DoD Source Selection

Procedures, trading price for technical superiority. To be eligible for award, the offeror must be deemed responsible in accordance with FAR 9.104; meet all requirements of the solicitation; conform to all required terms and conditions; and include all required certifications. The Government will evaluate competing offerors' technical proposals as significantly more important than price considerations. The Government seeks to award to the responsive, responsible offeror whose proposal is considered to provide the best value to the Government based upon an integrated assessment of price and technical approach. The Government seeks to award to the offeror who gives the Air Force the best value in meeting or exceeding contract requirements. This may result in an award being made to a higher priced offeror where the decision is consistent with the evaluation factors and the SSA reasonably determines that the technical superiority of the higher priced offeror outweighs the price difference. In such cases the SSA shall make an integrated assessment best value award decision. While the Government source selection evaluation team and the SSA will strive for maximum objectivity, the source selection process by its nature is subjective. Therefore, professional judgment is implicit throughout the entire process.

3. Responsibility Determination. To be eligible for award, the offeror must be deemed responsible in accordance with FAR 9.104. Responsibility will be determined in accordance with FAR 9.105.

4. Prices. Offerors must include unit prices for each CLIN listed in Section B for the basic period and all option periods. Failure to do so may be cause for rejection of the entire offer.

5. Award. Only one award will be made as a result of this solicitation.

C. EVALUATION FACTORS. The evaluation process shall proceed as follows:

1. Description. Proposals will be evaluated on four factors: Factor 1 – Management, Factor 2 – Mission

Maintenance, Factor 3 – Small Business Participation Commitment, and Factor 4 – Cost/Price. Factor 1 will consist of three subfactors, listed most to least important. Factors 2 and 3 will be evaluated on an “acceptable/ unacceptable” basis. Factor 4 will be evaluated for reasonableness and balance.

2. Relative importance. The relative importance of each factor and subfactor is as follows: Factor 1 – Management will have the following three subfactors, listed in…
