(a) North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code and small business size standard. The NAICS code and small business size standard for this acquisition appear in Block 10 of the solicitation cover sheet (SF 1449). However, the small business size standard for a concern which submits an offer in its own name, but which proposes to furnish an item which it did not itself manufacture, is 500 employees.

(b) Submission of offers. Submit signed and dated offers to the office specified in this solicitation at or before the exact time specified in this solicitation. Offers may be submitted on the SF 1449, letterhead stationery, or as otherwise specified in the solicitation. As a minimum, offers must show all items as specified in the Addendum to this provision

(c) Period for acceptance of offers. See Paragraph 5.5.2 of the Addendum to this provision

(d) Product samples. When required by the solicitation, product samples shall be submitted at or prior to the time specified for receipt of offers. Unless otherwise specified in this solicitation, these samples shall be submitted at no expense to the Government, and returned at the sender's request and expense, unless they are destroyed during preaward testing.

(e) Multiple offers. Offerors are encouraged to submit multiple offers presenting alternative terms and conditions or commercial items for satisfying the requirements of this solicitation. Each offer submitted will be evaluated separately.

(f) Late submissions, modifications, revisions, and withdrawals of offers:

(1) Offerors are responsible for submitting offers, and any modifications, revisions, or withdrawals, so as to reach the Government office designated in the solicitation by the time specified in the solicitation. If no time is specified in the solicitation, the time for receipt is 4:30 p.m., local time, for the designated Government office on the date that offers or revisions are due.

(2)(i) Any offer, modification, revision, or withdrawal of an offer received at the Government office designated in the solicitation after the exact time specified for receipt of offers is “late” and will not be considered unless it is received before award is made, the Contracting Officer determines that accepting the late offer would not unduly delay the acquisition; and--

(A) If it was transmitted through an electronic commerce method authorized by the solicitation, it was received at the initial point of entry to the Government infrastructure not later than 5:00 p.m. one working day prior to the date specified for receipt of offers; or

(B) There is acceptable evidence to establish that it was received at the Government installation designated for receipt of offers and was under the Government's control prior to the time set for receipt of offers; or

(C) If this solicitation is a request for proposals, it was the only proposal received.

(ii) However, a late modification of an otherwise successful offer, that makes its terms more favorable to the Government, will be considered at any time it is received and may be accepted.

(3) Acceptable evidence to establish the time of receipt at the Government installation includes the time/date stamp of that installation on the offer wrapper, other documentary evidence of receipt maintained by the installation, or oral testimony or statements of Government personnel.

(4) If an emergency or unanticipated event interrupts normal Government processes so that offers cannot be received at the Government office designated for receipt of offers by the exact time specified in the solicitation, and urgent Government requirements preclude amendment of the solicitation or other notice of an extension of the closing date, the time specified for receipt of offers will be deemed to be extended to the same time of day specified in the solicitation on the first work day on which normal Government processes resume.

(5) Offers may be withdrawn by written notice received at any time before the exact time set for receipt of offers. Oral offers in response to oral solicitations may be withdrawn orally. If the solicitation authorizes facsimile offers, offers may be withdrawn via facsimile received at any time before the exact time set for receipt of offers, subject to the conditions specified in the solicitation concerning facsimile offers. An offer may be withdrawn in person by an offeror or its authorized representative if, before the exact time set for receipt of offers, the identity of the person requesting withdrawal is established and the person signs a receipt for the offer.

(g) Contract award (not applicable to Invitation for Bids). The Government intends to evaluate offers and award a contract without discussions with offerors. Therefore, the offeror's initial offer should contain the offeror's best terms from a price and technical standpoint. However, the Government reserves the right to conduct discussions if later determined by the Contracting Officer to be necessary. The Government may reject any or all offers if such action is in the public interest; accept other than the lowest offer; and waive informalities and minor irregularities in offers received.

(h) Multiple awards. The Government may accept any item or group of items of an offer, unless the offeror qualifies the offer by specific limitations. Unless otherwise provided in the Schedule, offers may not be submitted for quantities less than those specified.

(End of provision)

ADDENDUM TO 52.212-1, Instructions to Offerors

INSTRUCTION TO OFFERORS

1. Program Structure and Purpose

1.1 The purpose of this solicitation is to acquire Transient Alert (TA) services for United States Air Force (USAF) installations within the scope of this program.

1.2 This acquisition will be set aside 100% for Service Disabled Veteran Owned Small Businesses (SDVOSB) with an embedded set-aside for 8(a) small businesses at locations currently accepted into the 8(a) program. The Government plans to accomplish one (1) source selection. The source selection will result in the government awarding multiple Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contracts to a targeted number of offerors. Each IDIQ will have a five (5) year ordering period consisting of a base year plus four (4) one- year options. The contract will primarily include Aircraft Arrival Services, Processing Services, and Departure Services that meet all Air Force and local directives while supporting the customers’ requirements and maintaining a safe and efficient operation.

1.3 Task Order 0001 will be issued concurrently with the basic IDIQ award for mandatory participation in a post award orientation. The Offeror must acknowledge it understands and is willing to accept the terms of Task Order 0001 should it win an IDIQ Contract. The Offeror must therefore submit with its proposal a signed statement from an authorized representative on company letterhead indicating it will participate in the mandatory post award orientation; that it understands $1,000 will be the total price for this participation (no more and no less). Task Order 0001 is NOT included in the basic contract proposal costs. No pricing information is required with this statement; therefore it should be no more than one (1) page.

1.4 One (1) source selection will be held, evaluating both SDVOSB Offerors and 8(a) Offerors under the same criteria. However, the Offeror will identify to which small business designation they are proposing. An 8(a) Offeror who is also a SDVOSB could submit a proposal as a SDVOSB and/or an 8(a). If this Offeror decided to propose to both SDVOSB and 8(a), they will be required to submit two (2) technical proposals, covering technical subfactors 1 and 2 for SDVOSB and for 8(a). The target number of awardees will be six (6) SDVOSB concerns and three (3) 8(a) concerns. The government reserves the right to award to more or less than the targets identified for both pools.

1.5. This acquisition will utilize Performance Price Tradeoff (PPT) with Technical Acceptability source selection procedures in accordance with FAR 15.101-1. Past Performance and Technical “acceptability”, when combined, are significantly more important than Price.

2. Coverage

2.1 This acquisition identifies 44 locations across nine (9) MAJCOMs as mandatory use in this effort. Of the 44 locations, six (6) locations are currently accepted into the 8(a) program and will remain in the 8(a) program, leaving 38 locations for SDVOSB set-aside. Table 1 below lists the bases identified as mandatory use.

3. Proposal Instructions

3.1 This section provides general guidance for preparing proposals. Section 4 will provide specific instructions on the format and content of the proposal. The Offeror’s proposal must include all data and information requested and must be submitted in accordance with these instructions. Any Offeror who submits an incomplete package may be considered ineligible for award. The offer shall be compliant with the requirements as stated in this RFP and attachments. Non-conformance with the instructions may result in an unfavorable proposal evaluation.

3.2 The proposal shall be clear, concise, and include sufficient detail for effective evaluation and substantiating the validity of stated claims. The proposal should not simply rephrase or restate the Government's requirements, but rather shall provide convincing rationale to address how the offeror intends to meet these requirements. Offerors shall assume that the Government has no prior knowledge of their facilities and experience, and will base its evaluation on the information presented in the offeror’s proposal.

3.3 The proposal shall be accompanied by a complete and signed Proposal Cover Sheet (See Section J, Attachment 2, Proposal Cover Sheet) to be included in Volume I (see section 5.2.1). The Proposal Cover Sheet Template requires the Offeror to specify whether it intends to compete as an 8(a) Firm, SDVOSB, or both.

3.4 The Contracting Officer (CO) listed below is the primary CO for this acquisition. He is the sole point of contact for this acquisition. If the Offeror believes that the requirements in these instructions contain an error, omission, or are otherwise unsound, the Offeror shall notify the CO below:

Contracting Officer :

TSgt Joshua D. Samples

1940 Allbrook Drive, Bldg 1, Room 300

Wright-Patterson AFB, OH 45433

Phone: (937) 257-6421

3.5 The CO will promptly notify Offerors of any decision to exclude them from the competition IAW FAR 15.503. Upon notification of exclusion, an Offeror may request and receive a debriefing. Offerors desiring debriefing must make a request in accordance with the requirements of FAR 15.503 or 15.506 as applicable. Debriefings will be conducted in accordance with FAR 15.505 or 15.506.

3.6 In accordance with FAR Subpart 4.8 (Government Contract Files), the Government will retain one (1) copy of all unsuccessful proposals. Unless the offeror requests otherwise, the Government will destroy extra copies of such unsuccessful proposals.

3.7 Proposals are due in “hard copy” form clearly identified as “original” proposal at 2:00 p.m. Eastern Standard Time on 22 Apr 2016. Proposals shall be delivered to the CO, TSgt Joshua Samples at the address listed above. In addition to that paper copy, the Offeror shall submit all proposal information in identical format and content in electronic version on Compact Disc (CD) or Digital Video Disc (DVD). Each CD or DVD will contain only one (1) proposal Volume. The CD/DVD shall be “read-only” and formatted for Microsoft Windows. All Microsoft Excel Attachments shall be submitted in Microsoft Excel format (unaltered) as provided by this RFP. The Offeror shall not include any formulas or links beyond what is included in the provided format. When creating Adobe Portable Documentation Format (PDF) files, the Offeror shall create the file to enable textual search and copy functions. Macros or other embedded objects or features will be disabled as part of regular security precautions.

3.8 Electronic copies of proposals received at or before the receipt of hard copies will not satisfy the aforementioned requirement of submitting a “hard copy”. Proposals may be mailed or hand-carried to the above address so they are received by the contracting office by the due date and time. The outside envelope/container shall be marked with the words “PROPOSAL ENCLOSED” and the RFP number. This is a secure military installation so appropriate arrangements are required to access the facility with enough time to meet proposal deadlines. It is the Offeror’s responsibility to make those arrangements to assure meeting proposal deadlines. Offerors who use regular mail to submit their proposals to Wright-Patterson AFB should allow additional time for delivery due to security screening on packages that may be conducted at the Wright-Patterson AFB mail processing facility. Proposals received after the specified due date and time will be considered late proposals, regardless of the delay, and may be considered ineligible for award.

3.9 All text shall be Times New Roman font, size 12, single-spaced, on 8 ½ x 11 inch paper (except as specifically noted in this Section). Within each volume, pages shall be numbered consecutively. A page printed on both sides shall be counted as two (2) pages. 11” x 17” sized fold out pages may be used for tables, charts, graphs, or pictures that cannot be legibly presented on 8 ½ x 11 inch paper. Foldout pages shall fold entirely within the Volume. Foldout pages shall fold so that the Government can read and evaluate them without removal from the proposal binder. Any 11” x 17” document will be considered a two sheet equivalent (with regards to page count limitations). Graphic presentations, including tables, are subject to the same font size and spacing requirements, and shall have spacing and text that is legible. In case of conflict between the paper and electronic copies submitted, the original paper version shall take precedence.

3.10 The Government plans to use the Government-owned software, EZSource, for the evaluation. The software administration for EZSource is provided by Array Information Technologies. Representatives from Array Information Technologies may have exposure to Offerors' proposals, but will not be providing advice on the merits of any proposal. Employees from Array Information Technologies who may have exposure to proposals have executed non-disclosure agreements. These non-disclosure agreements are available for review upon request. The exclusive responsibility for source selection will reside with the Government. Any objection shall be provided in writing prior to the date set for receipt of proposals and shall include a detailed statement of the basis for the objection. Proprietary information submitted in response to this solicitation will be protected from unauthorized disclosure as required by Subsection 27 of the Office of Procurement Policy Act as amended (41 U.S.C.423) and implemented in the FAR. Representatives from Array Information Technologies are bound contractually by organizational conflict of interest and disclosure clauses with respect to proprietary information.

3.11 The Government intends to evaluate proposals and award contracts without discussions with Offerors (except clarifications as described in FAR 15.306(a)). Therefore, the Offeror’s initial proposal should contain the Offeror’s best terms from a technical and price standpoint. The Government reserves the right to conduct discussions if the CO later determines them to be in the Government’s best interest.

4.0 Proposal Organization

4.1 The offeror shall prepare the proposal as set forth in Table 3 below. The titles and contents of the parts shall be as defined in this table, all of which shall be within the required page limitation and with the number of copies as specified.
