(b) The proposal shall be clear, concise, and shall 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 and experience, and will base its evaluation on the information presented in the offeror’s proposal.

(c) The offeror shall make a clear statement in the proposal documentation that the proposal is valid for 90 days (the reference in FAR 52.212-1(c) is hereby changed from: 30 days; to: 90 days).

3.0 Mission Capability Factor (Limit of 5 Pages (one-sided)

The Mission Capability documentation shall not make reference to cost or price data. It will be evaluated strictly on technical merit.

A positive statement to the fact that you will accomplish all requirements per the Performance Work Statement (PWS) is not acceptable. The proposal shall not merely offer to perform work in accordance with the PWS, but shall outline the actual method proposed as specifically as possible. It is the offeror’s responsibility to ensure the completeness of the mission capability documentation; therefore the mission capability evaluation panel for the Government will be instructed to evaluate only on the basis of the information provided in the mission capability documentation. The Government shall not assume that an offeror possesses any capability unless specified in the proposal.
