PROGRAM STRUCTURE AND OBJECTIVES

MUOS is an unprotected DoD narrowband satellite communications (SATCOM) system that provides secure worldwide Ultra High Frequency (UHF) SATCOM to the warfighter. MUOS supports a worldwide, multi-service population of mobile and fixed-site terminal users. MUOS is comprised of a Space Segment and Ground System encompassing communications transport, satellite control, ground infrastructure, network management, and a waveform software application for user terminals. MUOS satellites support both Wideband Code Division Multiple Access (WCDMA) and legacy UHF terminals. Phase 1of this acquisition is covered by this RFP.

The final design, test, and build of a MUOS satellite is contemplated as a separate RFP.

The primary objectives of this acquisition are:

1. Targeted technical risk reduction deliverables to support, develop, and document

MUOS SLE Satellite early design efforts.

2. Risk reduction efforts to include modeling and simulation, prototyping, detailed analysis of payload/satellite and examination of unique UHF design challenges.

3. Early design efforts include a combined System Requirements Review/System

Functional Review (SRR/SFR) and a comprehensive Early Design Review (EDR) that provides evidence of viable preliminary Contractor designs.

4. Develop and deliver cost, schedule, and technical forecasts for final design, build, test and launch of the MUOS Satellites. This data will serve as the basis for the subsequent Phase 2.

Offerors shall assume that the Government has no prior knowledge of their facilities and experience and the Government evaluation team will base its evaluation on the information presented in the Offeror’s proposal.

c. Proposals that do not address requirements within the SOW will be considered alternate proposals. Alternate proposals will not be considered for award. Alteration

SECTION L FA8807-23-R-0005

PAGE L - 10 of 35 of terms or conditions or attachments to the RFP (except requested fill-ins) will be deemed an alternate proposal and will not be considered. For this reason, offerors are cautioned against submitting any proposed exceptions, conditions, or ground rules.

Any assumption must be included in the proposal narrative respective to the particular subtopic of the technical proposal and will be considered only for the purpose of assessing the Offeror’s understanding of the requirement.

d. Elaborate brochures or documentation, binding, detailed artwork, or other embellishments are unnecessary and are not desired.

e. The Government will evaluate proposals and intends to award a contract without conducting discussions with the Offerors except clarifications or communications as described in FAR 15.306(a) and FAR 15.306(b). Therefore, each Offeror’s initial proposal should contain the Offeror’s best terms from both Cost/Price and Technical standpoints. The Government reserves the right to conduct discussions if the Source Selection Authority (SSA) determines them to be necessary. The Offeror is reminded that the Government reserves the right to award this effort based on the initial proposal, as received, without discussion, IAW FAR 52.215-1(f)(4).

f. Should verbal discussions be required, meetings will be held at a Government facility at or near San Diego, California, or by teleconference. The mode and location will depend on the volume and content of the information discussed and will be determined by the Government at a later date.

g. The Offeror agrees to hold the prices in its offer firm for 150 days from the date specified for receipt of offers. The Offeror shall make a clear statement in Section A of the proposal documentation volume that the proposal is valid through this date.

h. 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.

The Technical Volume shall be specific and complete and include all the information required by this provision in sufficient detail for effective evaluation. Legibility, clarity, and coherency are very important. Your responses will be evaluated against the Technical subfactors defined in Section M, Evaluation Criteria. Using the instructions below, provide the actual methodology you would use for accomplishing/satisfying these subfactors. All the requirements specified in the solicitation are mandatory. By your proposal submission, you are representing that your company will perform all the requirements specified in the solicitation. It is neither necessary nor desirable for you to state so in your proposal. Do not merely reiterate the objectives or reformulate the requirements specified in the solicitation.

The content of the Offeror’s Technical Volume must be consistent with the basis for the Cost/Price proposal in the Offeror’s Cost/Price Volume. The Offeror shall not include cost information in the Technical Volume. The Offeror must address in a comprehensive manner their approach and ability to accomplish the tasks as defined in the SOW.

The Technical volume shall be organized according to the following general outline:

Offerors shall demonstrate their ability to leverage digital technologies to streamline early design/development and future production (e.g., digital workflows, reviews, tools, and processes).

VOLUME III, FACTOR 2 – COST/PRICE

5.1 General Instructions

Reasonableness, Unbalanced Pricing, and Affordability The Cost/Price Factor volume shall contain the information requested in the paragraphs below.

SECTION L FA8807-23-R-0005

PAGE L - 20 of 35

The offeror shall submit other-than-certified cost or pricing data (per FAR 15.403-1(b), 15.403- 3(a), and FAR 15.403-5) for the Government evaluation. The proposal must contain sufficient details for the Government evaluation of reasonableness and unbalanced pricing. Compliance with these requirements is mandatory and failure to comply may result in a determination of non-compliance. The burden of proof for credibility of proposed amounts rests with the offeror. The price evaluation will be an assessment of the data submitted in the Price Volume; the Government will not be responsible for evaluating offeror data submitted outside the Price Volume. If, after receipt of proposals, the PCO determines that there is insufficient data available to complete the price evaluation, the offeror shall be required to submit additional pricing data. The use of offeror formats is encouraged provided that all the required information is submitted.

The Government issued this solicitation with the anticipation of adequate price competition;

therefore, any cost/price documentation requested shall not be certified cost or pricing data.

However, in the event that adequate price competition does not exist after receipt of proposals, the Government reserves the right to request additional cost or pricing data as necessary from the offeror and its subcontractors and may conduct negotiations with the offeror, pursuant to FAR Part 15.403-4, in order to ensure a reasonable and realistic price/cost. Furthermore, the offeror may be required to provide a Certificate of Current Cost or Pricing Data prior to award, pursuant to FAR 15.406-2. The offeror shall acknowledge the requirement to provide additional cost or pricing information and certify the data prior to award if/when requested by the Government.

The proposal must be submitted for a one (1) year base, plus a six (6) month option. Offerors are instructed that should their proposed prices exceed the budgetary value of $46M for the Base period, and $20M for the Option period, they will be considered unaffordable and ineligible for award. Proposals should be sufficiently detailed to demonstrate their adherence to these criteria.

The burden of proof for credibility of proposed costs/prices rests with the Offeror.

Cost/Price Volume Organization The offeror shall provide a consolidated Cost/Price volume, organized as follows:

Topic File Name Table of Contents Section 1 – Introductory Section Section 2 – TPP Calculation Section 3 – Discussion of Business Systems, GFP Requirements, offeror Unique Approaches Section 4 – Attachments CP1, CP-2, CP-3, and CP-4 to Volume III

Rounding All dollar amounts provided shall be rounded to the nearest dollar. All loaded labor rates shall be rounded to the nearest penny.

SECTION L FA8807-23-R-0005

PAGE L - 21 of 35

Electronic File Submission The official copy of the offeror's Cost/Price Volume shall be submitted in a format readable by Microsoft (MS) Office 2016, MS Word 2016, MS Excel 2016, MS Project 2016, MS Power Point 2016, and Adobe Acrobat XI Pro.

All files constructed in Microsoft Excel shall use formulas instead of just pasted values to preserve any calculation logic within the file, including summaries and totals. The offeror shall provide electronic copies of all cost/pricing models that are used for developing its estimate. All Excel files shall have working formulas. Offerors shall use the “group and Outline” feature of MS excel to facilitate the ease of proposal analysis. If the model requires multiple MS Excel spreadsheets, the “link cell” feature shall be used. The cost/price proposal submitted shall be consistent with the Offeror’s approved estimating system and shall duplicate the logic and mathematical formulas reflected in the official copy of its proposal.

Introductory Section of the Cost/Price Volume As an introduction, the offeror shall provide comprehensive narrative support for the Cost/Price proposal volume. The narrative shall explain the philosophy, methodology and assumptions used in proposing the dollar amounts. Any apparent imbalances in the pricing, any unrealistically low amounts, and any apparent pricing anomalies shall be clearly explained. The Government expects that consistency exists between the Technical and Cost/Price volume; any offeror-intended inconsistency shall be clearly explained and convincingly demonstrate how the promised performance will be achieved at the proposed cost/price.

The offeror shall complete and submit a CLIN Pricing Table shown below in Table 5-1, with the requisite information as described above. The Offeror shall include the completed table as Attachment CP-1 to this volume.
