The approach shall define how the offeror will overcome the complexities in transition to full performance, including items such as identification of team members and previous transition experience, descriptions of tasks to be performed, milestones (e.g. human resource actions, training, transfer of Government property, and start work dates), assumption of on-going work requests, assumption of contract management responsibilities for on-going construction projects, processing required security clearances, risks involved (with planned mitigation), and incumbent service provider coordination. Additionally, the offeror shall propose procedures and methods (management techniques and technical processes) to transition out at the end of the final option period if another contractor is selected for the follow-on requirement. Reference PWS paragraph 1.7.1
d. Quality Control: The offeror shall propose quality control procedures which demonstrate the capability to meet the requirements of the PWS and to provide the required reporting metrics to the Government in accordance with the Performance Plan. Reference PWS paragraph 1.5. At a minimum, the offeror shall:
i. Provide a detailed approach for identification, documentation, measurement, and control of key processes and /or internal performance metrics (those processes/metrics that ensure successful adherence to the Services Summary thresholds) and lower-level support processes/metrics.
ii. Provide proposed procedures for surveillance to gather the data required to calculate the metrics included in the Services Summary. The outcome of these metric calculations shall form the basis for the contractor provided metrics to be submitted monthly as required by the Performance Plan.
iii. Provide a description of the organization and management of the offeror's quality control program to include the measures taken to incorporate an independent quality control reporting chain that, at a minimum, reports to a higher management level.
VOLUME II - PAST PERFORMANCE INFORMATION
-Limited to no more than 6 pages per contract listed. Submit 4 hard copies (one original/three copies) plus 1 electronic copy (CD).
General
Each offeror shall submit a past performance volume with its proposal, containing past performance information in accordance with the format contained in Attachment 1. This information is required on the offeror and all subcontractors, teaming partners, and/or joint venture partners who are proposed to perform twenty (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.
Along with the information required in this paragraph, the offeror 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.
Each offeror shall provide a list of no more than five (5) of the most recent and relevant contracts performed for federal agencies and/or commercial customers.
Early Proposal Information
Each offeror shall submit the information shown in Attachment 1 for each relevant contract 5 days prior to the date set for receipt of proposals. Offerors shall complete Section 1 of the attached Past Performance Questionnaire (Attachment 1) and e-mail it to all points of contacts (POCs) the offeror has listed as past performance references. The POCs listed in the proposal should represent the individuals most knowledgeable about the offeror's performance on the identified contract or program, such as the following: (1) Contracting Officer's Technical Representative; (2) Program/Project Manager; (3) Contracting Officer. For commercial contracts, send the questionnaires to the commercial equivalents of these individuals. The POCs will complete the questionnaires and forward by email directly to the Attention of Cory Poff and Christopher Tuck, email copies to cory.poff.3@us.af.mil, christopher.tuck.3@us.af.mil and 6cons.lgcm@us.af.mil
RESPONDENTS TO THE QUESTIONNAIRES SHALL NOT SEND THE COMPLETED INFORMATION
SHEETS BACK TO THE OFFEROR!
Failure to submit early proposal information may result in offeror disqualification.
Relevant Contracts
Submit information in accordance with Attachment A: Past Performance Information on a maximum five (5) recent contracts that you consider most relevant in demonstrating your ability to perform the proposed effort or contracts performed by your teaming partners and significant subcontractors you consider most relevant in demonstrating their ability to perform the proposed effort. 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 addendum to FAR 52.212-2.
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 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. This may allow the offeror to be considered a higher confidence candidate. For example, submittal of quality performance indicators or other management indicators that clearly support that an offeror has overcome past problems is required.
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.
VOLUME III - PRICE PROPOSAL/CONTRACT DOCUMENTS
- Submit 4 hard copies (one original/three copies) plus 1 electronic copy (CD)
General Information Cost/Price Reasonableness This section is to assist you in submitting pricing data that is required to evaluate the reasonableness of your proposed price. Compliance with these requirements is mandatory and failure to comply may result in rejection of your proposal. Note that low or high proposed costs or prices, initially or subsequently, may be grounds for eliminating a proposal from competition on the basis that the offeror does not understand the requirement.
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. The burden of proof for credibility of proposed prices rests with the offeror.
Cost/Price Data Data beyond that required by this instruction shall not be submitted, unless you consider it essential to document or support your cost/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 Cost/Price volume. Under no circumstances shall this data and documentation be included elsewhere in the proposal. The CD/DVD shall include all MS Excel files with all cell formulas viewable.
Cost or Pricing Data Requirements In accordance with FAR 15.403-1(b) and 15.403-3(a), data other than certified cost or pricing data may be required to support a determination of price reasonableness. Data shall be provided in accordance with 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 cost or pricing data.
Section A - Solicitation/Contract Form: SF 1449 - Solicitation/Contract: complete Blocks 12, 17, and 30 and SF- 30 - Amendment of Solicitation/Modification of Contract (if applicable).

Offerors must clearly identify any exception to the solicitation terms and conditions and provide complete accompanying rationale. Each exception shall be specifically related to each paragraph and/or specific part of the solicitation to which the exception is taken. Provide rationale in support of the exception and fully explain its impact, if any, on the performance, schedule, cost, and specific requirements of the solicitation.
Authorized Offeror Personnel Provide the name, title, and telephone number of the company/division point of contact regarding decisions made with respect to your proposal and who can obligate your company contractually. Also, identify those individuals authorized to negotiate with the Government.
Company/Division Address, Identifying Codes, and Applicable Designations Provide company/division's street address, county and facility code; CAGE code; DUNS code; TIN; verification of SBA 8(a) status; and labor surplus area designation.

Evaluation Factors for Award
Miscellaneous text in this section has been modified to:
Addendum 52.212-2
BASIS OF AWARD
This is a best value source selection conducted in accordance with Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 15.3, Source Selection, as supplemented by the Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement (DFARS), and the Air Force Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement (AFFARS). These regulations are available electronically at the Acquisitions Site, https://www.acquisition.gov. The Government will select the best overall offer, based upon an integrated assessment of Technical, Past Performance, and Price. One contract will be awarded to the offeror who is deemed responsible in accordance with FAR Part 9, as supplemented, whose proposal conforms to the solicitation's requirements (to include all stated terms, conditions, representations, certifications, and all other information required by addendum FAR 52.212-1 of this solicitation) and is judged, based on the evaluation factors and sub factors to represent the best value to the Government.
This may result in an award to a higher rated, higher priced offeror, where the decision, which is consistent with the evaluation factors and the Source Selection Authority (SSA), determines that a technically acceptable offer's past performance outweighs the price difference. The SSA will base the source selection decision on an integrated assessment of proposals against all source selection criteria in the solicitation (described below).
While the Government source selection evaluation team and the SSA will strive for maximum objectivity, the source selection process, by its nature, is subjective; and therefore, professional judgment is implicit throughout the entire process.
Award will be made to the lowest priced responsive offer that meets both technical…
