May 31, 2019 - Acquisition Strategy: Our acquisition strategy has been established, but can be modified based on the responses to the requests for industry comment.

Based on market research, this acquisition is a full and open competitive source selection utilizing a tradeoff source selection process. The RFP will include 23 contract line items numbers (CLIN) which includes fifteen (15) Cost Reimbursement (CR), six (6) Firm Fixed price (FFP), and two (2) Not Separately Priced (NSP) CLINs. Many of the CR CLINs will be Government provided estimates (plugged numbers) simply requiring the application of indirect rates and a fee (if permitted). Several CLINs will be sample based problems requiring significantly detailed cost information to be provided. Cost realism will be performed. The FFP CLINs will be basic and not require significantly detailed information. An indirect rates listing and labor rates listing for all years of performance will be required and ultimately incorporated into the contract.

Within Sections L and M you will see several volumes listed. Within Volume 1, the three primary technical factors and the related subfactors are established and should be studied and considered in-depth. Volume 2 includes a Small Business Participation Commitment as a factor. A Minimum Quantitative Requirement (MQR) has been established for several Socio-Economic categories and will require careful consideration. Volume 3 includes a past performance factor and which will be evaluated. A chart has been incorporated explaining the evaluation requirements. Your attention to these requirements is of utmost importance. Volume 4, the price/cost area with factors is currently “reserved” and is taking shape; however, several of the sample based problems need further refinement. A government developed price/cost workbook with embedded formulas (MS EXCEL) is being developed and will be tied to the Total Evaluated Priced sheet. Additional space within the workbook will be permitted to allow offerors to provide price/cost support details. All offerors will be required to use the government developed workbook. The Volume 5 administration section has been established. Consideration was given to minimizing documents and precluding lengthy narratives but permit sufficient area to address needed material. We are looking to receive, clean, concise, and to the point proposal information.
