INSTRUCTIONS, CONDITIONS, AND NOTICES TO OFFERORS OR RESPONDENTS

1.0 Program Structure and Objective

The purpose of this effort is to provide all parts, pieces and components to purchase eleven (11) Falcon Up kits in accordance with the solicitation and attachments. All components must be acquired from/manufactured by Lockheed Martin-qualified vendors. The Ogden Air Logistics Complex (OO-ALC) will perform the necessary kit installations. The Contractor shall review the Lockheed Martin structures modification data (approved ECPS, TCTOs and Technical Data Packages) for the Falcon Up Modification for incorporation into the USN F-16A aircraft.

1.1 Budget/Funding Information

For consideration in developing your proposal, the program/budget funding allows for the following:

a. All 11 kits will be purchased at the time of award.

b. The contract type for this effort will be Firm-Fixed Price.

2.0 General Instructions

(a) The offeror's proposal must include all data and information requested by this Instruction to Offerors (ITO) and must be submitted in accordance with these instructions. The offer shall be compliant with the requirements as stated in the Statement of Work (SOW) and Contract Data Requirements Lists (CDRLs). Non-conformance with the instructions provided in this ITO may result in an unfavorable proposal evaluation.

(b) The proposal shall be clear, concise, and include sufficient detail for effective evaluation and for 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 or experience and will base its evaluation on the information presented in the offeror's proposal.

(c) Elaborate brochures or documentation, binding, detailed art work, or other embellishments are unnecessary and are not desired.

(d) The proposal acceptance period is specified in Section A of the solicitation. The offeror shall make a clear statement in Section A of the proposal documentation volume that the proposal is valid through this date.

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

2.1 General Information

2.1.1. Point of Contact

The F-16 Contracting Office at Hill AFB, Utah is the sole point of contact for this acquisition. Address any questions or concerns directly to the F-16 Contracting Office. Written requests for clarification may be sent to the F-16 Contracting Office at the address located in Section A of the solicitation.

2.1.2. Debriefings

The F-16 Contracting Office will promptly notify offerors of any decision to exclude them from the competitive range;

whereupon, they may request and receive a debriefing in accordance with FAR 15.505. Offerors excluded from the competitive range may request a pre-award debriefing or they may choose to wait until after the source selection decision to request a post-award debriefing. However, offerors excluded from the competitive range are entitled to no more than one debriefing for each proposal. The F-16 Contracting Office will notify unsuccessful offerors in the competitive range of the source selection decision in accordance with FAR 15.506. Upon such notification, unsuccessful offerors may request and receive a debriefing. Offerors desiring a debriefing must make their request in accordance with the requirements of FAR 15.505 or 15.506, as applicable.

2.1.3. Discrepancies

If an offeror believes that the requirements in these instructions contain an error, omission, or are otherwise unsound, the offeror shall immediately notify the F-16 Contracting Office in writing with supporting rationale as well as the remedies the offeror is asking the F-16 Contracting Office to consider as related to the omission or error. FAR 52.215-1(f) Alternate I applies. The offeror is reminded that the Government reserves the right to award this effort based on the initial proposal, as received, without discussion. This reservation includes matters of additional or substitute pages of the initial proposal.

2.1.4. Electronic Reference Documents

All referenced documents for this solicitation are available on the Federal Business Opportunities (FedBizOpps) website at https://www.fbo.gov/. Potential offerors are encouraged to subscribe for real-time e-mail notifications when information has been posted to the website for this solicitation.

2.1.5. Communications

Exchanges of source selection information between Government and offerors will be controlled by the F-16 Contracting Office. Email may be used to transmit such information to offerors only if the email can be sent and received encrypted and includes “Source Selection Information – See FAR 2.101 & 3.104” in the Subject line. Otherwise, source selection information will be transmitted via USPS, FedEx, UPS or by local representative. In order to facilitate the sending and receiving of encrypted emails, offerors must use MS Outlook email configured to support encryption or a different email product that is S/MIME compatible and configured to support encryption. If you intend to submit your source selection information via encrypted email, you will need to contact the F-16 Contracting Office indicated on the face page of the solicitation prior to that first submittal in order to exchange certificates used for encryption. To insure the process is working correctly, send a test encrypted message first (without including any source selection information).

2.2 Organization/Number of Copies/Page Limits

The offeror shall prepare the proposal as set forth in the Proposal Organization Table (Table 2.2 below). The titles and contents of the volumes shall be as defined in this table, all of which shall be within the required page limits and with the number of copies as specified in Table 2.2.

Volume IV – Price

5.1 General Instructions

5.1.1 Price Reasonableness

In the event it is determined there is adequate price competition, this section will assist you in submitting information other than certified cost or pricing data that is required to evaluate the reasonableness and balance of your proposed cost/price. Compliance with these requirements is mandatory and failure to comply may result in rejection of your proposal. Note that unrealistically low or high proposed costs or prices, initially or subsequently, may be grounds for eliminating a proposal from competition either on the basis that the offeror does not understand the requirement or has submitted an unrealistic proposal. Additionally, unbalanced pricing poses an unacceptable risk to the Government and may be a reason to reject an offeror’s proposal. Offers should be sufficiently detailed to demonstrate their reasonableness and balance. The burden of proof for credibility of proposed prices rests with the offeror.

5.1.2 Price Data

Data beyond that required by this instruction shall not be submitted, unless you consider it essential to document or support your price position. With the exception of the solicitation, Form 1447, all data relating to the proposed price, including all required supporting documentation, must be included in the section of the proposal designated as the Price volume. Under no circumstances shall this data and documentation be included elsewhere in the proposal.

5.1.3 Cost or Pricing Data Requirements

In accordance with FAR 15.403-1,(b) and 15.403-3(a), data other than certified cost or pricing data may be required to support a determination of price reasonableness. Data shall be provided in accordance with FAR 15.403-5. If, after receipt of proposals, the F-16 Contracting Office determines that there is insufficient data available to determine price reasonableness and none of the exceptions in FAR 15.403-1 applies, the offeror shall be required to submit additional cost or pricing data.

5.2 Volume Organization

The Price volume shall consist of the following sections:

SECTION 1 - Table of Contents; summary descriptions of estimating, purchasing, and accounting systems;

changes to estimating, accounting practices, or Cost Accounting Standards (CAS) Disclosure Statement IAW

FAR 52.230-1.

SECTION 2 - Data other than certified cost or pricing data (in the event it is determined there is adequate price competition), to include estimating methodology.

SECTION 3 - Other information such as base support, long lead costs, termination costs, development/production schedule, inflation rate summary and explanation, and special tooling/test equipment. List each exception to the ground rules and assumptions provided in the solicitation and each qualification of the Pricing volume, if any. Provide complete rationale for any exceptions.

5.3. Funding Profile

Submit then-year funding requirements by type of funds, by Government fiscal year, supported by monthly/quarterly projections of expenditures, commitments, and termination expense. Note that the funding schedules must be consistent with any imposed Government budgetary constraints.

SECTION M

EVALUATION FACTORS FOR AWARD

9952.900-M900 EVALUATION FACTORS FOR AWARD

(IAW 5315.304(c))

1.0 Basis for Contract Award. This is a competitive acquisition that will utilize Lowest Price Technically Acceptable source selection procedures in accordance with FAR 15.101-2. The offeror, who is deemed technically acceptable and presents the lowest price to the government will be awarded the contract. By submission of its offer, the offeror accepts all solicitation requirements, including terms and conditions, representations and certifications, and technical requirements, in addition to those identified as evaluation factors or sub factors. All technically acceptable offers shall be treated equally except for their prices. Failure to meet a requirement may result in an offer being determined technically unacceptable. Offerors must clearly identify any exception to the solicitation terms and conditions and provide complete accompanying rationale. The evaluation process shall proceed as follows:

Factor 1 Technical Acceptability. Initially, the government technical evaluation team will evaluate the technical proposals on a rating of Acceptable or Unacceptable. The proposals shall be evaluated against the following sub factors:

Sub factor - Manufacturing. Offeror’s or sub vendor’s capability of manufacturing complex aircraft structural assemblies, in accordance with Lockheed Martin material and process specifications provided in the data package.

Offferors shall identify and provide IUID tags (markings), for manufactured parts and tooling, IAW MIL-STD-130N, dated 16 November 2012.

Sub factor - Kitting. Offeror’s capability in assembling kits with large quantities (similar to this effort) of piece parts and process(es) for accurate tracking. Additional consideration will include the tracking of parts/real-time status of available parts in contractor supply system to ensure quality and timeliness of delivered kits. Government shall assess relevancy of kitting capability as compared to this effort and feasibility of part and kit tracking and management processes.

Offerors shall have a thorough understanding of Item Unique Identification (IUID) marking requirements, marking equipment, databases and their interfaces, engineering evaluation requirements, verification, and data and configuration management relating to IUID marking. The Offerors shall maintain the IUID tags (markings) on all kits and spare parts purchased IAW MIL-STD-130N, dated 16 November 2012, contract clauses, DFARS (252.211-7003, 2523211-7007), and the Offeror’s IUID Marking Plan. The Offerors will report using the IUID registry, located on the internet at https://www.bpn.gov/iuid.

Sub factor - Capacity. Offeror’s detailed plans on how they will meet the schedule set forth in the solicitation to include steps to ensure peak manufacturing and kitting capacity are met. The assessment will be based on reasonableness of plans and ability to meet the schedule as defined in the solicitation.

Sub factor - Quality Control. The offeror’s quality control program will be reviewed to assure that internal quality improvement processes and/or means to assure in-process quality checks will effectively maintain accuracy and quality and rapidly identify deficiencies and discrepancies. Processes for handling/resolving internal and customer-reported deficiencies and discrepancies will be evaluated to ensure that they will allow for effective, efficient resolution. The contractor and their subcontractors shall have quality systems that conform to at least International Standards Organization (ISO) 9001:2000 and NATO standards agreement AQAP-2120 or equivalency. Defense Contracts Management Agency (DCMA) reserves the right to validate conformance to quality requirements prior to award.

Factor 2

1.2 Price Evaluation. The government will rank all technically acceptable offers by price. An offeror’s proposed prices will be evaluated against the pricing criteria of balance, and reasonableness as described below in paragraphs 1.2.1 and 1.2.2. A Total Evaluated Price (TEP) will be developed and used in the selection process as described below in paragraph 1.2.3 and in Section L, paragraphs 2.2.2 and 5.0.

1.2.1 Balance. Price analysis will be used to determine if the prices for contract line items are balanced. Unbalanced pricing exists when, despite an acceptable total solicitation effort price, the price of one or more contract line items or sub line items are significantly over or under-stated as demonstrated by the application of price analysis techniques. Unbalanced pricing may increase performance risk and result in a higher proposal risk rating or the offer may be rejected if the Government determines the lack of balance poses an unacceptable risk to the Government (FAR 15.404-1(g)).

1.2.2 Price Reasonableness. Offeror’s/Price Volume will be evaluated, using one or more of the techniques defined in FAR 15.404, in order to determine if it is reasonable. A price is reasonable when it provides best value to the Government when consideration is given to the current market prices, technical and functional capabilities of the offeror and risk. IAW FAR 15.403-1(b), the Government may require submission of information other than cost or pricing data to the extent necessary to evaluate price criteria for reasonableness. When adequate price competition exists, generally no additional information is necessary to determine the reasonableness of price. Reference Section L, Volume III – Price, Paragraph 5.0 for additional detail on this requirement.

1.2.3 Total Evaluated Price (TEP). TEP is the cost model (worksheet) used to compute cost. The TEP is for award determination purposes only and will be a major consideration in the best value award decision. This is pending determination that all the proposed unit prices are considered balanced and reasonable. The TEP will be developed using prices proposed for specified evaluation quantities.

2.0 Additional Information.

2.1 Unrealistic Proposals. Proposals should be sufficiently detailed to demonstrate fairness and reasonableness. The Government may reject any proposal that is determined to be unrealistic in terms of program commitments, such that the proposal is deemed to reflect an inherent lack of competence or failure to comprehend the complexity and risks of the program. This determination may be made based on contract terms and conditions, and/or pricing that is unrealistically high or low when compared to Government estimates and/or market prices. This includes both original submission and final proposal revision, if requested.

2.2 Pre-Award Survey. The Government reserves the right to request pre-award surveys (PAS) as needed as part of this source selection. Results of the PAS (if conducted) will be evaluated to determine an offeror's capability to meet the requirements of the solicitation.

2.3 Plant Visits. The Government reserves the right to conduct plant visits as needed during the evaluation phase to gather information for judging the offeror's potential for correcting deficiencies, quality of development or manufacturing practices/processes, or other areas useful in evaluating the offer. If conducted, the results will be assessed under the applicable factors/sub factors and will be used to validate and confirm the offeror's written proposal. The plant visit shall be conducted only at the request of the Government.

2.4 Single Award. The government intends to make a single award to a single vendor. The government intends to award a contract without discussions with respective offerors. The government, however, reserves the right to conduct discussions if deemed in its best interest.
