5 VOLUME II – TECHNICAL

The Technical Volume should be specific and complete. Keep in mind that legibility, clarity, and coherence are important to helping the Government evaluation team read and understand the proposal. The Offeror’s responses will be evaluated against the Technical subfactors defined in Section M, Evaluation Factors for Award. Using the instructions provided below, the Offeror will provide as specifically as possible the actual methodology they would use for accomplishing/satisfying these subfactors. All the requirements specified in the solicitation are mandatory. By way of proposal submission, the Offeror is representing that the firm will perform all the requirements specified in the solicitation. Do not merely reiterate the objectives or reformulate the requirements specified in the solicitation.

5.1 Technical Approach

In the technical volume, address your technical solution to the Government’s minimum performance or capability requirements of each technical subfactor (see 5.1.1 and 5.1.2).

Address likely risks associated with your proposed technical approach with the potential for disruption of schedule, increased costs, degradation of performance, the need for increased Government oversight, or the likelihood of unsuccessful contract performance. Classify each risk in accordance with the risk ratings definitions in Table M2 (refer to section M). Provide the rationale for each risk and its rating, including quantitative estimates of the impact on cost, schedule, and performance. Describe the impact of each identified risk in terms of its potential to interfere with or prevent the successful accomplishment of other contract requirements (for example: SOW or specification requirements), whether or not those requirements are identified as subfactors. Propose realistic "work arounds" or risk mitigators for identified risks that potentially eliminate or reduce each risk to an acceptable level. Identify and classify new risks likely to be introduced by such risk mitigation.

5.1.1 Technical Capabilities

Submit for consideration your Technical Capabilities (limit 30 pages) that addresses:

5.1.1.1 How the Offeror has (or can obtain), and how they will maintain, management and engineering staff with the (i) qualifications and experience (PWS para. 14.0 and Tables 2, 3, and 4), (ii) at a level consistent with that required (PWS para 14.0 and Tables 2, 3, and 4) by the Air

C-LGIP Section L

Force, (iii) among the six landing gear functional category (PWS para. 14.2) disciplines. The Offeror shall include biographical and educational attainment information to the extent necessary for the Government to determine if the requirements given by (i), (ii), and (iii) above have been met.

5.1.1.2 A copy of each teaming arrangement applicable to the C-LGIP effort shall be included as an appendix. Teaming Arrangements shall clearly identify the scope of the arrangement; the type of work to be performed by each party; the management plan for coordinating work between each party; the conflict resolution plan; and any other aspects of the relationship relevant to C-LGIP performance. Teaming arrangements with OEMs of landing gear parts for the aircraft identified in this solicitation will not be accepted by the Government if they contain an “exclusivity clause” or verbiage which would monopolize or restrict competition to a particular C-LGIP contractor. Teaming arrangements will not count against page limitations.

5.1.1.3 A Succession Management Plan that includes details on how turnover, succession, and training of staff will be handled to meet the qualification and experience requirements for the entire 20-year period of performance.

5.1.1.4 Small Business Participation (PWS para. 11.3). The proposal shall address the Offeror’s approach to meeting the Government’s Small Business subcontracting goals. This includes the extent to which such firms are specifically identified in the Offeror’s proposal and the extent of commitment to use such firms. Commitment to Small Business Participation, which is required from all offerors, is not to be confused with the Small Business Subcontracting Plan.

5.1.1.5 A Quality Control Plan (PWS para. 13.2) that addresses how quality will be managed over the entire 20-year period of performance. The Quality Control Plan shall include a detailed and comprehensive approach to meeting the performance thresholds given in the Services Summary table (PWS Appendix, Table 1).

5.1.1.6 Identification of program risks and any applicable quality standards that will be utilized (e.g. ISO 9001-2000 or equivalent).

5.1.2 B-52 C-LGIP Statement of Work (SOW)

5.1.2.1 Submit a SOW (limit 40 pages) to address the objectives outlined in the B-52 C-LGIP

SOO.

5.1.2.2 The Offeror’s responses shall address: (a) Proposed solution, clearly indicating which tasks, if any, will be performed by an organization other than the Prime (i.e. Teaming Partner, Subcontractor, etc.) and who will perform those tasks; (b) Deliverables; (c) Key Personnel; (d) Risk; (e) Work Breakdown Structure (WBS); and (f) Integrated Master Schedule (IMS). (see PWS para. 16.0, and Section M para. 4.2)

5.1.2.3 Offerors are advised to submit reasonable and achievable responses to the SOO since the Air Force reserves the right to accept a particular offeror’s B-52 C-LGIP SOW and Pricing Schedule as a basis to issue a Task Order without further discussion. For award criteria for the B-52 C-LGIP Task Order, see Section M para. 4.2.

5.1.2.4 The Offeror shall submit a WBS and IMS that capture their proposed technical approach to at least 3 levels of detail. The WBS shall identify any tasks that will not be performed by the Prime, and indicate which organization will perform each task. In addition to

C-LGIP Section L capturing the WBS elements in schedule form, the IMS shall clearly indicate the critical path and deliverables for the duration of the task. The WBS and IMS will not count against page limitations.

All offerors will receive a rating for each of the categories listed above IAW Section M para. 5.

In addition to the submitted information the Government reserves the right to use both the past performance information provided by the Offeror and information obtained from any other sources available to the Government, to include, but not limited to: the Federal Awardee Performance and Integrity Information System (FAPIIS), Electronic Subcontract Reporting System (eSRS), or other databases; the Defense Contract Management Agency; and interviews with Program Managers, Contracting Officers, Fee Determining Officials, and commercial sources. The evaluation of all offerors’ past performance information shall consider recency, relevancy (similarity in technical requirements and scope) and overall performance.

6.1 Projects

6.1.1 Project Submissions submitted should be for those efforts the Offeror considers most relevant to demonstrating its ability to perform the proposed effort, that are also recent (see Section M para. 5.2 for recency and relevancy descriptions). Submit projects utilizing Section L Attachment 1 – C-LGIP Project Submissions.pdf. Responses should be succinct, and directly address the project objective, problems encountered/corrective actions taken, and relevance.

Responses are limited to the space provided.

6.1.2 Complete all blocks on the Project Submissions Form. Enter the Past Performance Category (from paragraph 6 above) in Block B1 that the project is relevant to. Do not provide a submission referencing only an indefinite delivery contract (FAR 16.504). Offerors may provide a submission for individual orders performed under an indefinite delivery contract, using one submission per order (enter the parent contract number and the order number in Block C2).

(Note: multiple submissions for different orders under the same basic contract may be submitted separately and each will count toward the limit of three projects per category).

6.1.3 Offerors representing large business concerns (reference Small Business Administration’s Small Business Size Standards by NAICS publication) shall complete “Block E” on the Project Submissions form for those projects where a Small Business Subcontracting Plan (SBSP) was required. If the Offeror is a small business or if no SBSP was required indicate “N/A.”

6.2 Specific Content

Offerors are required to explain which aspects of the projects they submitted are deemed relevant to the proposed effort and to what aspects of the proposed effort they relate.

7 VOLUME IV – PRICE PROPOSAL

7.1 General Information

7.1.1 The primary purpose of the price proposal is to provide the Air Force with prices and labor rates so it can perform analysis (in accordance with FAR Part 15) and consider price reasonableness and balance. Compliance with these instructions is mandatory and failure to comply may result in the Offeror’s proposal being determined Unawardable. Offers should be sufficiently detailed to demonstrate reasonableness and balance. The burden of proof for credibility of proposed costs/prices rests with the Offeror.

C-LGIP Section L

7.1.2 All pricing information shall be addressed ONLY in the Price Proposal Volume. Cost trade-off information, (e.g. material kinds and quantities) may be used in other volumes (e.g. C- LGIP Task SOW, “key resources”) only as appropriate for presenting rationale for alternatives for trade-off decisions.

7.2 Contract Labor Hour Rates

7.2.1 Offerors are required to submit labor rate information using the “Schedule B” tab in the C- LGIP Pricing Tables attachment. The “Unburdened Hourly Rate” should reflect the actual hourly wage rate to be used for evaluation purposes, but will not be contractually binding (if multiple personnel will be used with the same level of experience within a category, enter the rate of the person with the lowest Unburdened Hourly Rate).

7.2.2 The “Burdened Hourly Rates” included on the C-LGIP Pricing Tables worksheet will be incorporated in the contract, as not-to-exceed Firm Fixed Prices, and utilized throughout the term of the contract. These Fixed Price rates represent an all-inclusive, or “Burdened”, rate (hourly wage rates, overhead, G&A, profit, and other similar allowable costs) excluding direct material and travel costs associated with manufacturing and testing material (e.g. a prototype) for the years identified. Offerors shall not add to or subtract from the labor categories identified in the C-LGIP Pricing Tables worksheet. Offerors are cautioned that prices submitted in some other method cannot be evaluated or considered; and again reminded that incomplete pricing may result in the Offeror’s proposal being determined Unawardable.

7.3 B-52 C-LGIP Task Order Pricing Schedule

7.3.1 The Offeror shall submit a B-52 C-LGIP Task price proposal, based on the basic C-LGIP PWS and the B-52 C-LGIP SOO, sufficient to accomplish the work described in the Offeror’s B- 52 C-LGIP SOW. Using the B-52 Pricing Schedule tab within the C-LGIP Pricing Tables worksheet, the Offeror shall propose the number of labor hours per year per labor category (to be multiplied by the Burdened Hourly Rate). The Offeror shall also propose estimated Travel, Material and Data costs for each year of anticipated performance. Additional detailed information should be provided, in the Contractor’s format, to identify the basis for all Travel, Material and/or Data costs. The Offeror’s price proposal will be utilized for price evaluation purposes (Section M para. 6). Pricing shall be in accordance with the CLINs identified in the “B-52 Pricing Schedule” tab of the C-LGIP Pricing Tables worksheet.

7.3.2 The Offeror’s B-52 C-LGIP SOW and B-52 C-LGIP Pricing Schedule constitute a response upon which the Air Force may unilaterally issue a Task Order without further discussion. Therefore, the Offeror is advised to submit their most competitive approach.

7.3.3 See the “B-52 C-LGIP Notional CLINs” attachment to the B-52 SOO for an example of the required milestones/deliverables within each task which the Government would consider acceptable as a basis for payment. The Offeror may propose an alternate CLIN structure, but the PCO may unilaterally reject any other milestones/deliverables if determined not to be in the Government’s best interest.

7.4 Employee Compensation Plan

The Offeror shall provide a total compensation plan (IAW FAR Subpart 22.11 and FAR 52.222-

46) setting forth salaries and fringe benefits proposed for the professional employees who will work under the contract to be evaluated for a sound management approach and understanding of contract requirements.

C-LGIP Section L

7.5 Approved Accounting and Purchasing Systems

As some CLINs will be other-than fixed price, the Offeror must provide evidence of an approved accounting and purchasing system for themselves and any subcontractors who will be issued other-than fixed price subcontracts. The Offeror shall indicate whether the accounting or purchasing systems are Government approved and, if so, provide evidence of such approval.
