7 Teaming Arrangements and/or Letters of Intent

3.1 Price Reasonableness: The source selection will be conducted with the expectation of adequate price competition for this acquisition per FAR 15.403-1(c)(1); therefore, certified cost or pricing data are not required per FAR 15.403-1(b)(1). The CO will determine prices to be fair and reasonable by using one or more of the proposal analysis techniques in FAR 15.404. If at any time during this competition the CO determines that adequate price competition no longer exists or if price reasonableness cannot be determined, the CO may require offerors to submit additional data other than certified cost or pricing data, as appropriate, for the CO to support a determination for a fair and reasonable price.

3.2 Section B/Price Schedule: The offeror shall insert proposed unit and extended prices in Section B for each Contract Line Item Number (CLIN) including all option periods. All unit prices must be rounded to the nearest penny. Pricing on two reimbursable “not to exceed” CLINs for each performance period are provided by the Government in the CLIN description. The total extended amount for the CLINs must equal the total amount when unit price is multiplied by the quantity of units. The sum of all CLINs, for the Base Period and each Option Period, will form the offeror’s Total Evaluated Price (TEP).

4. Other Contracting Considerations

4.1 RFP Completion Details: Include in each proposal cover letter or proposal cover page: name, office phone and fax number (and, if applicable, cell phone number), and e-mail address for the proposal point of contact. The offeror must complete the following and include in Volume I:

(a) Standard Form 33 (SF 33), Blocks 13-18, of the RFP: In completing these blocks, the offeror accedes to the contract terms and conditions as written in the RFP Sections A through K. A scanned copy of the originally signed (“wet” signature) page or electronically signed signature page should be included in the proposal.

(b) Standard Form 30 (SF 30), Blocks 15A-15C, for any/all amendments. A scanned copy of the originally signed (“wet” signature) page or electronically signed signature page should be included in any/all amendments.

(c) Complete all necessary fill-ins and certifications in Sections I through K. Ensure compliance with RFP requirements if using the annual representations and certifications electronically via the System for Award Management (SAM) website at https://www.sam.gov/portal/public/SAM/. Ensure the Tax Identification Number (TIN) is loaded in SAM or provided for in the proposal submission. If the CO is unable to access/retrieve an offeror’s annual representations and certifications, that offeror may, upon request by the CO, be required to submit a hard copy of their annual representations and certifications. This request will not be construed as communications or discussions with an offeror as defined by FAR 15.306.

(d) Statement of Compliance with the Service Contract Labor Standards (SCLS), (also referred to as the Service Contract Act (SCA)). The SCA Wage Determination (WD) provided in Section J, Attachment 2, is applicable to this requirement. The offeror shall provide a statement acknowledging:

i. Compliance with the requirements of the SCA WD;

ii. The prices proposed for labor covered by the SCA WD were formulated in consideration of the rates specified in the document as required for covered contractor personnel;

iii. The wage and benefit rates specified in the SCA WD are not escalated beyond the basic period of performance (FAR 52.222-43(a) and (b)) and likewise, the prices proposed for labor covered by the SCA WD were not escalated beyond the basic period of performance; and

iv. Offerors are reminded of and advised to pay particular attention to FAR 52.222-43(b), which is included in this solicitation by reference and will be in the resultant contract. In particular, this clause provides a mechanism for dealing with escalating labor costs due to increases in SCA wage and benefit rates, whether those rates are derived from a DoL- issued wage determination or an effective collective bargaining agreement. Offerors are advised that wage/benefit rates for service employees (ref FAR 22.001) should not be escalated in their proposals for contract outyears (or option periods) since this clause provides a means for doing so after contract award.

http://www.sam.gov/portal/public/SAM/

(e) Statement of Compliance with the Collective Bargaining Agreement (CBA). The CBA provided in Section J, Attachment 3, is applicable to this requirement. The offeror shall provide a statement acknowledging:

i. Compliance with the requirements of the CBA;

ii. The prices proposed for labor covered by the CBA were formulated in consideration of the rates specified in the document as required for covered contractor personnel;

iii. The wage and benefit rates specified in the CBA are not escalated beyond the basic period of performance (FAR 52.222-43(a) and (b)) and likewise, the prices proposed for labor covered by the CBA were not escalated beyond the basic period of performance.

4.2 Responsibility Determination and Supporting Documentation: To assist in determining contractor responsibility in accordance with FAR 9.104-3(a), the offeror shall:

(a) Explain how they plan to maintain adequate financial resources for a contract of this magnitude and length;

(b) Address a fiscal plan for covering initial performance costs prior to recoupment in the form of monthly invoice payments;

(c) Provide complete financial statements for one (1) fiscal year and year-to-date financial information through the last quarter available. The year-end financial statements must be certified by an independent accounting firm, or must be submitted along with a copy of the tax return and a letter from an independent accounting firm verifying the amounts;

(d) If the offeror intends to rely on internally available working/operation capital, documentation of availability must be submitted. If the offeror plans to rely on financial support from external sources, documentation of availability and maximum lines of credit available (based upon the inclusion of this contract effort) must be submitted. Evidence of external funding must be provided in the form of a dated letter from the external source.

IAW FAR 9.104-5, the offeror is required to comply with the submission regarding FAR 52.209-5, Certification Regarding Responsibility Matters found in Section K of this RFP. Since it is the Government’s intent to make Award Without Discussions IAW FAR 52.215-1, the Government may request an offeror submit additional information so a responsibility determination can be made. This request for additional information will not be construed as communications or discussions with an offeror as defined by FAR 15.306.

4.3 Teaming Arrangements and/or Letters of Intent: If a teaming arrangement is contemplated, provide complete, verifiable information detailing the arrangement, to include any relevant and recent information on previous teaming arrangements with the same partner. Submit information relative to the formation, organization and operation of the business unit.

Additional information that should be submitted shall include cost and revenue sharing agreements and any other information which describes the business arrangement. Disclose existing or planned agreements between and among the principals, each company’s responsibility for financial management of the venture, the business systems contemplated for use by the entity and their location.

C. Volume II, Written Technical Proposal

1. General: The written technical proposal shall be clear, concise, and include all the information required by this provision in sufficient detail for effective evaluation. The proposal should not simply rephrase or restate the Government’s requirements, but rather shall address how the offeror intends to meet these requirements. Offerors shall assume the Government has no prior knowledge of their capabilities, work processes, facilities, and experience and will base its evaluation on the information presented in the offeror’s technical proposal.

2. Format and Specific Content: The following information shall be provided in the written technical proposal and will be evaluated to assess technical acceptability in accordance with Section M-900, Evaluation Basis for Award.

A critical subcontractor is defined as an entity (subcontractor and/or teaming contractor), other than the offeror itself that will perform major or critical aspects of the requirement critical to overall successful performance. Major or critical aspects include tasks related to food preparation (i.e.

food preparation and cooking), customer processing (i.e. cashiering and bussing), and equipment maintenance and repair.

2. Volume Organization: The Past Performance Volume shall be organized according to the following general outline:

The requested past performance information shall be provided in a separate volume labeled "Volume III - Past Performance". A summary page shall be provided for this acquisition, describing the proposed role of the offeror, any joint venture member and critical subcontractor (nature of work and percentage of overall work). Summary page information must clearly communicate that proposed critical subcontractor(s) meet the definition of a critical subcontractor established above. Efforts submitted for proposed critical subcontractors not meeting the established definition will not be evaluated. Each offeror/joint venture member shall complete past performance information for five (5) active or completed contracts (with at least one year of performance history) in the past three (3) years from the date of receipt of proposal, that the offeror/joint venture member considers relevant based on the relevancy criteria established in the RFP in demonstrating its ability to perform the proposed effort. If the total number of such contracts exceeds five (5), each offeror/joint venture member shall address its five (5) most recent and relevant contracts. For each critical subcontractor included in the offeror's proposal, past performance information for five (5) of their most recent and relevant contracts shall also be included. The offeror's/joint venture member’s or critical subcontractor’s past performance information may include data on efforts performed by other predecessor companies, affiliates, other divisions or corporate management if such was provided for evaluation and if the offeror’s past performance volume demonstrates the company, affiliate, or division will provide the offeror with resources for the instant proposed effort, such as workforce, management, facilities, or other capabilities demonstrating direct and meaningful involvement in the performance of the instant proposed effort. The past performance information shall clearly indicate the division or corporate organization that performed or is presently performing the contract. Contracts listed may include those with the Federal Government, state and local governments or their agencies, and commercial customers.

3. Ordering Type Contracts Submission: If the contract you are submitting is an ordering type contractual vehicle (for example, including but not limited to an Indefinite Delivery “D” type contract per FAR 16.5), only after issuance of a delivery/task order does performance occur. Given this, an individual order (or series of orders) under the basic ordering contract shall be submitted, in lieu of just the basic ordering contract itself. All information provided to the Government, for an ordering type contractual vehicle, shall be at the order level (i.e. a delivery/task order).

When determining what order (or series of orders) to submit for evaluation, please reference Section M, Paragraph II.D.4-5 for details on how the Government will evaluate each submitted effort for recency, relevancy, and quality.

When submitting an individual order (or series of orders) under an ordering type contractual vehicle, it is important that the offeror’s past performance information be accurate, complete, and in the correct format. If the information is not submitted in the correct format, the Government will not be able to evaluate the effort for recency, relevancy, and quality. There are specific places for submission of this information in the PPI Tool. Please ensure the information submitted, in the PPI Tool is for each order (or series of orders), in lieu of just the basic ordering contract itself. See paragraph 3.1 for further information on how to submit series of orders.

3.1 Series of Orders: When submitting a series of orders for evaluation, the offeror should list the orders under the basic ordering type contractual vehicle that demonstrate relevancy, as defined in the Relevancy Definitions in Section M paragraph II.D.4. If an offeror submits a series of orders for evaluation, the total dollar value of each order (in the series of orders) and the period of performance dates of each order (in the series of orders) shall be submitted. The total dollar value of each order (in the series of orders) shall be added up to calculate the Total Dollar Value to be used in the evaluation, for the submitted effort. The total period of performance of each order (in the series of orders) shall be added up to calculate the Total Period of Performance to be used in the evaluation, for the submitted effort.

Caution: All orders within the series of orders, being submitted, should be for the same continuous technical scope demonstrating relevancy to the instant acquisition. The Government reserves the right to request additional information from the offeror or Points of Contacts provided to verify that the series of orders is for the same continuous technical scope.

4. Key Personnel: Offerors, joint venture members, or critical subcontractors that are newly formed entities (in existence less than three (3) years from the date of receipt of proposal) who either have no prior contracts or do not possess relevant corporate past performance, but have key personnel with relevant past performance while employed by another company, may demonstrate the performance of such key personnel by submitting past performance information for five (5) of their most recent and relevant contracts under which such key personnel performed the same role currently being proposed on the instant acquisition and this performance occurred during the past three (3) years from the date of receipt of proposal. Note however, that the quality of the key personnel’s performance under the submitted contract must be able to be verified by the Past Performance Team in order to be considered in the assessment of confidence. Any such key personnel must already be employed by the offeror /joint venture member, or in the case of a critical subcontractor, must already be employed by the critical subcontractor; a letter of intent to hire does not constitute employment.

5. Subcontractor/Teaming Member Consent Form: In addition to the information provided in the PPI Tool for each entity as required above, the offeror must submit a consent letter executed by each of its proposed teaming member(s) and/or critical subcontractors authorizing release of adverse past performance information to the prime offeror to allow the prime offeror an opportunity to respond. A sample Subcontractor/Teaming Partner Consent Form is attached to this RFP (see RFP Attachment 6). The consent form shall be completed by the team member(s) and/or critical subcontractors identified in your proposal. The completed consent forms shall be submitted as part of your Past Performance Volume III.

6. PPI Tool: The offeror/joint venture member or critical subcontractor, if applicable, shall focus its PPI Tool responses so that they clearly correlate present and past performance with the requirements of this RFP. The PPI Tool responses must clearly describe the relevance of the effort to the work proposed. Provide the most current information for the Customer Points of Contact (POCs) identified in the PPI Tool:

(a) Program/Site Manager

(b) Contracting Officer

(c) Administrative POC

If problems were encountered during the performance of the identified contracts, provide evidence of the ability to isolate the root causes of problems and include in the past performance information a description of programs or actions taken to resolve those causes. Problems not addressed in the past performance information, but found by the Government during the evaluation of the information in this volume, will be assumed to still exist. Note: In the case of Contractor Performance Assessment Report System (CPARS), if your input has already been provided and the rationale/circumstances have not changed, DO NOT repeat them here.

7. Past Performance Questionnaire: The Past Performance Questionnaire (see RFP Attachment 5) will be one means used by the Government to obtain present/past performance information. The Government reserves the right to change, alter, and/or supplement the questionnaire without further notice to the offeror(s). The offeror shall send out and track the completion of the Past Performance Questionnaires (See RFP Attachment 5) to each of the offeror’s, joint venture member’s and/or critical subcontractors’ (i.e., each entity’s) Points of Contact (POCs) identified in each PPI Tool submission. The responsibility to send out and track the completion of the Past Performance Questionnaires rests solely with the offeror - i.e., it shall not be delegated to any other entity.

Completed Past Performance Questionnaires shall be submitted directly to the Government not later than the date established in the RFP for receipt of proposals. POCs may submit their completed Past Performance Questionnaire either electronically, by fax or by mail. If sending electronically, follow the procedures outlined in paragraph I.B. Communications above, and email to: deitre.browne@us.af.mil. If mailing, the POCs may return the completed questionnaires via mail directly to:

81 CONS/LGCB

ATTN: Deitre Browne 310 M Street, Rm 102 Keesler AFB, MS 39534-2701

If mailing, the outside envelope must be marked as follows:

NOTE: TO BE OPENED BY ADDRESSEE ONLY

The completed questionnaires should be contained in a second envelope marked with the mailing address and the following legend:

SOURCE SELECTION INFORMATION - See FAR 2.101 and 3.104

FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY

POCs may send the completed questionnaires via fax. The fax number is (228) 377-3298. Please have your POCs call Deitre Browne at (228) 377-1833 before faxing their response.

Once the Past Performance Questionnaires are completed by your POCs, the information contained therein shall be considered source selection sensitive and shall not be released to the offeror. Therefore, any exchange/contact between the offeror/joint venture member and/or critical subcontractor and its own POCs in regards to comments made on the questionnaire is not permitted.

8. Client Authorization Letter: In the event that commercial contracts are presented as present/past performance sources of information, a client authorization letter shall be issued to those commercial POCs requesting/authorizing them to complete a Present/Past Performance Questionnaire. A sample client authorization letter is attached to this RFP (see RFP Attachment 7). The offeror is required to send the client authorization letter(s) with the Present/Past Performance Questionnaire(s) to each POC on commercial contracts. A separate copy of client authorization letter(s) for each commercial contract shall be included in the offeror’s Present/Past Performance submission for the Government’s use in case additional questionnaires need to be sent by the Government after the RFP due date.

9. Follow-up Discussions: The Government may conduct follow-up discussions with any of the people identified in the PPI Tool report or in the offeror’s Past Performance Volume. Pursuant to FAR 15.305(a)(2)(ii), the Government may obtain other information by sending out additional questionnaires and through other sources, other than those listed within the PPI Tool and resulting report.
