The following have been modified:

Addendum to 52.212-1 -- Instructions to Offerors -- Commercial Items

A. To assure timely and equitable evaluation of the proposal/tender, the offeror must follow the instructions contained herein. Offerors are required to meet all solicitation requirements, including terms and conditions, representations and certifications, and technical requirements, in addition to those identified as evaluation factors or subfactors. Failure to meet a requirement may result in an offer being ineligible for award. Offerors must clearly identify any exception to the solicitation terms and conditions and provide complete accompanying rationale. The response shall consist of three (3) separate parts; Part I – Technical Plans, Part II – Past Performance, Part III – Price Proposal.

B. The Government’s terms, conditions, and respective provisions and clauses contained within this solicitation are prescribed in accordance with United States Federal Acquisition Regulations (FAR), and are not subject to conditionally proposed revisions or changes requested by offerors. Offeror’s specific terms and conditions that may be contingently proposed for subsequent inclusion into the contract if awarded will not be considered by the Government in its evaluation of proposals. Offerors that are not able to comply with the aforementioned conditions, will be determined as noncompliant with the solicitation requirements, and therefore may be removed from consideration for award.

C. SITE VISIT:

Site visits will be conducted for this requirement. There will be a site visit at RAF Alconbury on 10 October 2018 at

10.00 (10:00 A.M.) and RAF Croughton on 11 October 2018 at 10.00 (10:00 A.M.)

Bidders/Offerors wishing to attend one or both site visits, shall submit the following to SSgt Mason Harney at mason.harney@us.af.mil and to 501csw.rco@us.af.mil NLT 5 October 2018 at 15.00 (3:00 P.M.): names of all attendees (not to exceed 3) and vehicle registration, make, model and color.

This information must be provided in advance in order to ensure access to the military bases. All attendees must bring government-issued photographic identification that is valid and current. Expired ID will not be accepted.

Specific instructions for base access will be provided upon receipt of the required advance information.

Bidders/Offerors are requested to submit all questions to the point of contact noted above not later than 17.00 (5:00 PM) on 15 October 2018. Information provided at these conferences shall not qualify the terms and conditions of the solicitation and specifications. Terms of the solicitation and specifications remain unchanged unless the solicitation is amended in writing. If an amendment is issued, normal procedures relating to the acknowledgment and receipt of solicitation amendments shall apply.

A record of the site visit shall be made and furnished to all prospective bidders/offerors. The record shall include all asked or received questions (on a non-attribution basis) and answers.

D. PROPOSAL CONTENTS:

1 . PART I – TECHNICAL PROPOSAL

Technical Proposals shall consist of three sub factors: A) Management Plan B) Quality Control Plan, and C) Mission Essential Services Plan.

A) Management Plan - Describe how the offeror will obtain and utilize certified/licensed personnel, equipment, and materials to perform the work in the PWS and how the offeror will track and safeguard all Government provided equipment, passes, keys, and communication devices.

B) Quality Control Plan - State the approach or approaches the offeror will use to perform to the standards in the PWS, to meet the quality thresholds defined in the Services Summary (paragraph 2.1 of the PWS), and to correct deficient performance. Note: If selected for award, the offeror’s Quality Control Plan will be incorporated into the contract and will be monitored for compliance on the Service Summary (SS) in paragraph 2.1 of the PWS as a performance objective item.

C) Mission Essential Services Plan –Submit a plan to provide mission essential services during a crisis or emergency as outlined in the PWS paragraphs 1.2.1.4.1. – Alconbury-Molesworth Shuttle, 1.2.1.4.2. – Medical Shuttles and 1.2.1.8. – Medical/Dental Cargo, DFARS Clause 252.237-7024, and Attachment 4 Mission Essential Contractor Services during a crisis or emergency to include adverse weather conditions.

2. PART II – PAST PERFORMANCE

Offerors shall complete Section A of Attachment 3, the Past Performance Questionnaires (PPQs) with their company information and send the PPQs to their current or former customers for completion of Sections B and C.

After completion, the customers shall forward the completed PPQs directly to 501 CSW/RCO, Bldg 516, RAF Alconbury, Huntingdon, Cambridgeshire PE28 4DA, UK or e-mail to mason.harney@us.af.mil and 501csw.rco@us.af.mil. (Note: e-mail instructions and restrictions as listed under paragraph F. below.)

The offeror is responsible for insuring that their current/former customers complete and submit the PPQs. Offerors may contact 501 CSW/RCO to verify if PPQs have been received. A maximum of five (5) PPQs for each offeror will be evaluated; if more than five (5) PPQs are received only the first five (5) received will be evaluated.

The government will use all questionnaires received from the offeror’s referenced customers and data independently obtained from other government and commercial sources to determine if the Past Performance information is recent and relevant and then assess it for acceptability.

Recent means performance within five (5) years of the date of this solicitation.

Relevant means performance of similar requirements to those stated in the PWS either in whole or in aggregate if performed simultaneously under multiple contracts.

Past performance evaluation performed in support of this requirement does not establish, create, or change the existing record and history of the vendor’s past performance on past contracts; rather, the past performance evaluation process gathers information from customers on how well the offeror performed those past contracts/projects. Offerors may be asked to clarify the relevance of past performance information. In addition, communications may be conducted regarding adverse past performance information to which the offeror has not previously had an opportunity to respond. Adverse past performance is defined as past performance information that supports an unacceptable rating or any unfavorable comments received from sources without a formal rating system.

These communications will not constitute discussions and the contracting officer reserves the right to award a contract without the opportunity for proposal revisions.

3. PART III – PRICE PROPOSAL

(a) Complete blocks 12, 17a, and 30a, b, and c of the SF 1449. In doing so, the offeror accedes to the contract terms and conditions as written in the SOLICITATION, with attachments. The SOLICITATION constitutes the model contract

(b) Insert proposed unit and extended prices in the Pricing Schedule. Prices must be submitted for all CLINs. As prescribed by clause 52.216-1 TYPE OF CONTRACT, the resultant contract will be Firm Fixed Priced.

Accordingly, proposed pricing by offerors shall be firm-fixed, and not subject to revision and/or negotiation if selected for contract award. Additionally, to be considered, proposals shall include pricing for all items in the Price Schedule exclusive of CLINs 0010, 1010, 2010, 3010, and 4010 – Contractor Procured Items for which the Government’s estimated prices have already been entered. Proposed pricing must be submitted in British Sterling Pounds (£), exclusive of VAT.

(d) Complete the necessary fill-ins and certifications in provisions. The provision at FAR 52.212-3 shall be returned along with the proposal if not already completed in the System for Award Management (SAM).

INFORMATIONAL PRICING NOTE:

TUPE - (Transfer of Undertakings (Protection of Employment) Regulations 2006

Definition. The United Kingdom’s Transfer of Undertakings (Protection of Employment) Regulations 2006 (TUPE) is the main piece of legislation governing the transfer of an undertaking, or part of one, to another. The regulations are designed to protect the rights of employees in a transfer situation.

During the solicitation phase and award of the resultant contract the Government does not have access to specific TUPE information nor becomes involved with related TUPE processes and associated liabilities (to include indemnification) that may transpire during pre-award or post-award phases between transferor and transferee. While the Government fully understands the relevance of TUPE-information in proposing fixed prices, the responsibility to provide TUPE-information rests solely with the transferor; governed by Regulation 11 of the Transfer of Undertakings (Protection of Employees) Regulations 2006 (TUPE). As the transferor need only provide TUPE information to the transferee prior to the transfer, the Government will only make available the listing of the current, incumbent contractor(s) with associated points of contact if requested. The Government is not responsible for determination of TUPE applicability; the responsibility lies solely with the transferor.

As this is a firm-fixed price contract, it is incumbent upon the offeror to calculate any anticipated TUPE pricing at time of proposal submittal. TUPE costs cannot be submitted as a conditional proposal, if submitted as such the offeror’s proposal will be considered unacceptable and the offeror shall be excluded from competition.

E) GENERAL INFORMATION: Documents submitted in response to this solicitation must be fully responsive to and consistent with the following:

1. Requirements of the solicitation (CLINs & PWS) and Government standards and regulations pertaining to the

PWS.

2. Evaluation Factors for Award in provision 52.212-2, Evaluation—Commercial Items (Addendum).

3. Any limitation on the number of pages. Pages exceeding the page limitations set forth in this solicitation provision will not be read or evaluated, and will be removed from the proposal.

4. Format for proposal Part II Technical Proposal shall be as follows:

(a) The proposals will be 8 ½ in. x 11 in. paper, or European equivalent, except for fold-outs used for charts, tables, or diagrams, which may not exceed 11 in. x 17 in. or European equivalent.

(b) A page is defined as one face of a sheet of paper containing information (any text, graphs, charts, drawings, images, etc.).
