L-6 EXCEPTIONS

L-6.1 The Government reserves the right to award without discussions; therefore, Offerors are advised that taking exception to any requirements specified in this solicitation may result in the Government finding the proposal unacceptable. Clarification of Government requirements shall be handled by submitting questions/recommendations within 15 calendar days after final solicitation release date. Questions/recommendations shall be sent to accamic.wrmrecomp@us.af.mil. If Offerors still find it necessary to take exception to any of the requirements specified in this solicitation (Sections A through M, to include the PWS and attachments), clearly identify each exception in the Executive Summary within the Technical volume along with a complete explanation of why the exception was taken and the resulting benefit to the Government. Exception to solicitation requirements may require the Government to amend the solicitation to reflect a changed requirement. The Government will consider the absence of a stated exception to mean the Offeror takes no exception to the solicitation and the proposal will be evaluated as submitted.

L-7 INSTRUCTIONS FOR VOLUME I, TECHNICAL (FACTOR 1)

L-7.1 To facilitate evaluation, the Technical Volume shall be specific, detailed, and complete to clearly and fully demonstrate that Offerors have a thorough understanding of AFCENT WRM requirements. Statements that Offerors understand, can, or will comply with the PWS (including referenced documents, etc.); statements paraphrasing the PWS or parts thereof (including applicable AF publications, referenced documents, etc.); and phrases such as “standard procedures will be employed” or “well known techniques will be used” or “work will continue as it has in the past” will be considered “Unacceptable.” Data submitted prior to the proposal submission will not be considered in the Government’s evaluation; therefore, such data shall not be relied upon or incorporated in the Technical proposal by reference.

L-7.2 Technical Factor Cross-Reference Matrix. As part of Offerors’ proposals, a separate cross-reference matrix shall be completed and submitted with Volume I - Technical. All referenced paragraphs include all subsequent subparagraphs (for example, 5.0 includes 5.1, 5.2, 5.2.1, etc.). This is only a tool to assist in the proposal preparation process. Offerors are ultimately responsible for ensuring that their proposal fully addresses all areas and that all requested information is completed/provided in accordance with (IAW) Sections L of this solicitation. Offerors shall complete the last column with paragraph number references from their Technical Volume. Offerors may provide additional references to the other columns as deemed necessary.
