• Cross Teaming Limitations

• Market research confirmed that subcontracting and teaming arrangements may be necessary because of the broad scope of the contract requirements; therefore, such arrangements are encouraged to ensure mission success. It is the Government’s policy to recognize the integrity and validity of Contractor team arrangements and to not overly restrict the market, provided the arrangements are identified and company relationships are fully disclosed in an offer or, for arrangements entered into after submission of an offer, before the arrangement becomes effective.

• The following restrictions on cross teaming shall apply:

• During any competition, if a company is identified as a prime contractor or teaming partner/subcontractor on any proposal for a competition, then that company cannot participate as a prime contractor or teaming partner/subcontractor on any other offeror's proposal for that specific competition.

• After proposal submission, the teaming arrangement limitation does not apply to subsequent fair opportunity notices or awards.

Cross Teaming Arrangement

• Government-Approved Transition Plan should meet PWS section 4.2 Requirements:

• The Contractor will be given a transition period, as defined in the

Transition CLIN Description, to provide qualified personnel that meet or exceed the stated qualification requirements per section 3.0 Performance Requirements. The Contractor shall follow the approved Transition Plan submitted as part of the Technical Proposal. The Contractor's approved Transition Plan shall become an attachment to the contract. The Contractor shall ensure the approved Transition Plan incorporates, at a minimum, the transition requirements and milestone schedule to address the accomplishment of the transition milestones and mitigate any associated risks.

• The Transition Plan shall specifically address the Six Checkpoints prescribed in paragraphs 4.2 a – f of the PWS

Transition Plan
