About this file
This is a comment matrix spreadsheet containing industry questions and government responses regarding the Air Force Modeling and Simulation Support Services (AFMS3) 3.0 RFP. The document contains three high-severity questions focused on labor category qualifications and submission of proprietary information.
The key issues addressed include: 1) A request to revise labor category qualifications in Attachment 3 to better align with OASIS levels and reflect the complex technical nature of the work, which the government approved; 2) Two related questions regarding the submission of proprietary and competitively sensitive subcontractor information directly to the government rather than through the prime contractor, which the government approved by updating Section 3.4.1.3 subparagraph 3b of Attachment 6. The RFP has key dates including questions due December 30, 2024, a virtual pre-proposal conference on January 10, 2025, and proposals due January 31, 2025.

Sheet1
| # | Severity: High, Routine, Low | Document (i.e. PWS, Self Socring Matrix) | Paragraph (if applicable) | Comment/Question | Government Response |
| 1 | High | Attachment 3 - AFMS3 3.0 Labor Categories | The nature of the work, as outlined in the the PWS, requires an extremely complex, highly technical workforce to perform under the contract. However, the LCAT qualifications in Attachment 3 are low (high school degree and minimal years of experience at the most senior level). Recommend the Government revise the Attachment 3 qualifications for all labor categories, both engineer/PM and others, into one table to align with the OASIS levels and qualification substitutions (equivalencies), such that level 1 (junior) equates to up to 3 years of experience and a BA/BS degree, level 2 (journeyman) equates to 3-10 YOE and a BA/BS or MS, level 3 (senior) equates to over 10 YOE and a MA/MS, and a level 4 (SME) is an individual whose qualifications and/or particular expertise are exceptional and/or highly unique. | Attachment 3 has been updated | |
| 2 | High | Attachment 6 - Section L | IAW with the instructions contained with Attachment 6 - AFMS3 3.0 Section L, instruction 3.4.1.3 subparagraph 3b, the preponderance of documentation to be supplied as substantiating evidence is required to be submitted to the Government directly by the Prime Offeror, including subcontractor work samples. At present, Section 3.5.1.3. is the only instruction that recognizes the proprietary nature of the information, as contained in CPARS data, and thus allows for subcontractor teammates to directly submit this evidence to the Government. Due to the inherently proprietary and competitively sensitive nature of all substantiation data that may be provided under this RFP response, would the Government be willing to accept direct submissions of all subcontractor substantiating data in the same manner? | Yes, 3.4.1.3 subparagraph 3b has been updated. | |
| 3 | High | Attachment 6 - Section L | The information contained in Team Members’ substantiating evidence (not only CPAR/PPQ) may contain proprietary information and/or competition sensitive data. In order to appropriately protect this information, will the Government accept a direct submission from our subcontractors for some or all their substantiating data (similar to the submission of CPARS/PPQ as documented in Section 3.5.1.3)? | Yes, 3.4.1.3 subparagraph 3b has been updated. |
