4.0. VOLUME II- PRICE PROPOSAL

4.1. Since this is a competitive acquisition, with adequate price competition anticipated, the pricing documentation is considered data other than certified cost or pricing data and shall not be certified in accordance with FAR Part 15.406-2. Should adequate price competition not exist after receipt of proposals, the provisions of

FAR Part 15.403-4 shall apply, and the offeror will be asked to provide certification of cost or pricing data.

4.2. Cost/Pricing Content. The offeror is required to complete Exhibits A through E. The exhibits shall be completed in accordance with the following instructions:

4.2.1. Insert the proposed unit and extended prices in the exhibits. The extend amount must equal the whole dollar unit price multiplied by the number of units.

4.2.2. The Total Evaluated Price is the base year price plus all four option year prices as well as a six (6) month extension in accordance with FAR 52.217-8 – Option to Extend Services. The six (6) month extension price will be derived by adding one half (1/2) of the last options year’s price.

4.2.3. Information beyond that required by this instruction shall not be submitted, unless you consider it essential to document or support your cost/price position. All information 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 information and documentation be included elsewhere in the proposal.

5.0. VOLUME III –PAST PERFORMANCE INFORMATION

5.1. General. Only references for relevant contracts are desired. Each offeror shall submit a past performance volume with its proposal, containing past performance information in accordance with the format contained in

Attachment 2, “Past Performance Information (PPI) Tool.” This information is required on the offeror and all subcontractors, teaming partners, and/or joint venture partners who are proposed to perform 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. Offerors shall use the PPI

Tool to generate past performance information and shall be submitted in writing and electronically as a PDF attachment.

5.2. Past performance information submitted shall be recent and relevant. Recent is defined as work completed or ongoing during the seven (7) years prior to the Government due date for proposals. The Government is not bound by the offeror’s opinion of relevancy or quality, and will perform an independent assessment of relevancy and quality of the data provided or obtained. If the offeror has no recent or relevant past performance information, this should be documented in Volume III. The Government reserves the right to determine whether any relevant past performance information exists and its relevancy, notwithstanding the alleged absence thereof by any offeror.

5.3. Volume III – Organization / Content

5.3.1. Table of Contents

5.3.2. Introduction

5.3.3. Glossary of Abbreviations

5.3.4. Organizational Structure Change History

5.3.5. Past Performance Information (PPI) Tool generated documentation

5.3.6. Other Supporting Documentation

5.4. Organizational Structure Change History.

5.4.1. 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 the conclusion of recent past performance efforts and this request for proposal. As a result, it is sometimes difficult to determine what past performance is relevant to this acquisition. To facilitate this relevancy determination, if applicable, include in this proposal a

“roadmap” describing all such changes in organization for the offeror, joint venture partner(s) and proposed major subcontractors. 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 identified efforts and general enough to apply to efforts on which the

Government receives information from other sources.

5.5. PPI Tool Instructions.

5.5.1. All offerors shall use the PPI Tool to generate past performance information. The PPI Tool and instructions included in Attachment 2 can be downloaded at https://www.fbo.gov/spg/USAF/ACC/99CONS/FA486118RC007/listing.html.

6.0. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION REQUIRED

6.1. The offeror shall submit the following:

https://www.fbo.gov/spg/USAF/ACC/99CONS/FA486118RC007/listing.html

6.1.1. Signature Page – Complete blocks 12, 17, 23, 24, AND 30 Standard Form (SF) 1449. Signature by the offeror on the SF1449 constitutes an offer, which the Government may accept. The "Original" copy shall be clearly marked under a separate cover without punched holes, and placed in the “Original Binder.” Provide copy of the signature page in binders containing copies.

6.1.2. Proposal Expiration Statement – A statement that the offer presented is valid for no less than 180 calendar days from the proposal due date.

6.1.3. Copy of Solicitation / Contract with Offeror’s required fill-ins.

6.1.4. Representations, Certifications, and Other Statements of Offerors, if necessary.

6.2. Company Information – Provide company/division's street address, county and facility code; CAGE code; DUNS code; TIN; size of business; and labor surplus area designation. This same information must be provided if the work for this contract will be performed at any other location(s). List all locations where work is to be performed and indicate whether such facility is a division, affiliate, or subcontractor, and the percentage of work to be performed at each location.

6.3. Authorized Offeror Personnel – Provide the name/title, physical and e-mail address, and phone/fax number of the company/division point of contact regarding decisions made with respect to your proposal and who can obligate the offeror contractually. Also, identify those individuals authorized to negotiate with the Government.

6.4. Government Agencies – In reference to current contracts or TOs, provide information on administering or cognizant Government agencies. Provide the name of the agency, mailing address, phone/fax numbers, and facility code (if applicable) for the cognizant Contract Administration Office, Defense Contract Management Agency

(DCMA); Defense Contract Audit Agency (DCAA); Government Payment Office; or Administrative Contracting

Officer (ACO).

6.5. Exchanges. The Government intends to award without discussions and make an award based on initial proposals; however if inadequate competition exists based upon unacceptable technical proposals, discussions or negotiations may be held and result in a Final Proposal Revision (FPR). If it is determined to be in the best interest of the Government to hold discussions, the Government will make a Competitive Range determination, evaluation notices may be issued to Offerors in the competitive range, responses will be requested from applicable Offerors, and discussions will be opened. The competitive range may be further reduced for purposes of efficiency pursuant to

FAR 15.306(c)(2). Formal responses to evaluation notices (if applicable), discussion items, and final proposal revisions will be considered in making the award decision.

6.6. Any revision or non-concurrences to contract terms and conditions submitted in the FPR may not be subject to further discussion or negotiation, and may render the offer unacceptable to the Government. This provision is not intended to restrict the Offeror’s opportunity to revise figures (e.g., prices, rates, etc.); rather, it is intended to preclude any misunderstandings by the Government, which could result if new or revised terms and conditions are submitted in the FPR that have not been fully disclosed, discussed and understood during discussions or negotiations. Hence, such new or revised terms and conditions are not solicited and, if submitted in the FPR, may render the offer unacceptable to the Government.

6.7. Offerors are cautioned to submit sufficient information and in the format specified in FAR 52.212-1, Instructions to Offerors – Commercial Items. Offerors may be asked to clarify certain aspects of their proposal.

Communication conducted to resolve minor or clerical errors will not constitute discussions and the Contracting

Officer reserves the right to award a contract(s) without the opportunity for proposal revision.
