The incorporated provisions and clauses are those in effect through Federal Acquisition Circular (FAC) 2020-09.
THIS ANNOUNCEMENT CONSTITUTES THE ONLY SOLICITATION AND A SEPARATE SOLICITATION
WILL NOT BE ISSUED.
The solicitation number for this acquisition is FDA-RFQ- 75F40121Q00006 and is being issued as a Request for Quote (RFQ). The NAICS Code for this solicitation: 541611. This will be awarded as Firm-Fixed Price award. The Government reserves the right to award without discussions if the Contracting Officer determines that the initial offer is providing the Best Value and discussions are not necessary. This is 100% Women Owned small business set aside.
This requirement is subject to availability of funds.
The U. S Food & Drug Administration (FDA), Office of Acquisitions and Grant Services is procuring services for FDA Safety Program Assessment services.
Background:
FDA is committed to ensuring safety throughout the Agency and seeks to promote a culture that prevents injuries, facilitates safe work environment, and ensures robust scientific experimentation. This includes FDA’s laboratory safety program and other areas at the FDA (e.g., environmental, occupational health care, ergonomics program, AED program, non-laboratory personal safety, and, facilities management).
Since its inception, the Office of Laboratory Safety (OLS) has played a key role in FDA’s commitment to safety by providing executive leadership in the area of laboratory safety, laboratory security, and environmental and occupational safety and health programs. To accomplish the important task of laboratory safety, each center and office works collaboratively with OLS to ensure that FDA laboratories across the Agency continue to comply with all the applicable rules, regulations and policies and have the support that is needed, while leveraging one another’s knowledge and experience. The FDA’s laboratories house more than 2,500 researchers and analysts, whose work contributes to the development of new approaches, standards, and methods for evaluating the safety, efficacy, quality, and performance of the diverse and complex products we regulate. As the demand for research expands to addresses new public health challenges, FDA faces tremendous public expectation and needs to evolve rapidly but requires a holistic review of its organization to ensure it is positioned to enable effective operations moving forward.
In addition to laboratory specific issues, overall governance and safety management practices outside laboratory settings are critical to ensuring workplace safety and occupational health more broadly at the FDA. Overarching safety-related efforts include various activities and communications that address personal safety, ergonomics, office safety, environmental health, and occupational health services for FDA staff across all facets.
Inherent to success is having policies and procedures that ensure compliance with Federal, State, local and FDA regulatory standards, policies, and other requirements and an organizational culture that promotes a safe work environment. A strong, positive safety culture encourages identification of best practices, enables staff to raise concerns to leadership, engages collaboratively across the organization to address concerns, and demonstrates alignment across the Agency around roles, responsibilities, and a commitment to process improvement. FDA seeks to create an environment that:
A. Creates and shares communications that reinforce safety as a priority B. Listens and responds to Staff’s perceptions of the existence and/or lack of a culture of responsibility and safety C. Includes leadership in and as a champion of safety activities D. Ensures that FDA staff has no fear of retaliation, real or perceived, when raising concerns or reporting an incident E. Establishes practices that seek to find systemic causes to address safety issues F. Recognizes and rewards behaviors that seek to optimize safety and security G. Captures and shares best practices H. Establishes and maintains high standards for science, safety, and laboratory security
Key to the success of FDA’s safety program is not only collaboration, but also continued evaluation and process improvement. To this end, FDA launched a multi-phase evaluation and optimization process of OLS and the Centers/Office of Regulatory Affairs (ORA) by working with the Office of Planning and Evaluation (OPE) to further enhance safety. In addition, the Government Accountability Office (GAO) has recently completed a study and provided recommendations related to FDA’s laboratory safety program. To address the recommendations, FDA launched a new cross-agency working group to optimize and further foster a holistic, cohesive, and collaborative safety culture throughout the Agency. As a part of this effort, FDA is seeking a third-party assessment to evaluate its safety operations including the culture, behaviors, and collaboration in this area, and provide feedback that can be considered as it seeks to optimize safety operations at the FDA.

11) EVALUATION AND AWARD:
In addendum to FAR 52.212-2; the following factors shall be used to evaluate offers.
EVALUATION CRITERIA
Factor 1: Performance Work Statement
The offeror’s proposed Performance Work Statement will be evaluated to determine if it is comprehensive and feasible.
(Comprehensive is defined as all SOO objectives have been addressed. Feasibility is defined as the delivering of a final Safety Program Assessment Report that will meet the SOO within the period of performance).
Factor 2: Technical Approach
The offeror’s proposal will be evaluated to determine if its proposed approach provides a sound methodology:
a) To effectively engage with relevant FDA staff to achieve Objectives/Specifications, including front line staff, management, and leadership
b) Inclusive of methods to identify best practices in organizations that would be relevant to FDA safety operations that would inform an evaluation of current operations and enhancement opportunities to assure continued compliance and increased efficiency
c) To address organizational culture and climate to identify areas where activities are working well as well as where areas for improvement exist
d) Consisting of relevant safety-performance metrics that will adequately assess FDA’s safety operations that would identify best practices in current program(s) and identify any opportunities for improvement related to culture, expertise, oversight, or compliance
e) Consisting of mechanisms to employ safety communications within the organization to increase awareness and stimulate improvement opportunities and optimal safety behaviors
Factor 3: Management Approach
The offeror’s management approach will be evaluated to determine if adequate processes exist to manage quality, staffing and schedule.
Factor 4: Past Performance
Factor 5: Price
The proposed price will be evaluated but not scored. The price evaluation will determine whether the proposed prices are fair and reasonable in relation to the solicitation requirements. Proposed prices shall be entirely compatible with the technical quotations.
Although price is the least important evaluation factor, it will not be ignored. The degree of importance of the proposed prices will increase with the degree of equality of the proposals in relation to the other factors on which selection is to be based.
Basis for Award
The Government intends to evaluate proposals and, if, necessary conduct discussions with all responsible Offerors within the competitive range. The award will be made to the Offeror whose proposal conforms to the terms and conditions of the solicitation and award may be made to other than the lowest priced or the highest technically rated offer.
Relative importance and trade-offs. The Government will base the determination of best value on performance, and the other evaluation factors identified elsewhere in this solicitation. The determination of best value also considers the relative importance of the evaluation factors. Technical factors and past performance when combined are significantly more important than price. It is pointed out; however, should technical competence between Offerors be considered approximately the same, then price could become primary.
FDA will base its award decision using a best value analysis that results in the most advantageous acquisition for the Government. FDA’s acquisition strategy used to obtain best value may result in an award to other than the lowest priced, technically rated Offeror. Best value analysis spans a continuum from the lowest priced, technically acceptable proposal to those proposals in which tradeoffs between price, past performance, and each Offeror’s technical solution is evaluated. This tradeoff process depends on the Government’s assessment of quality factors, including but not limited to past performance, compliance with solicitation requirements, technical excellence, management capability, personnel qualifications and prior experience, and price.

The Full text of the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) can be accessed on the internet at https://www.acquisition.gov/far/
Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 (29 U.S.C. 794d) requires Federal agencies to purchase electronic and information technologies (EIT) that meet specific accessibility standards. This law helps to ensure that federal employees with disabilities have access to, and use of, the information and data they need to do their jobs. Furthermore, this law ensures that members of the public with disabilities have the ability to access government information and services.
There are three regulations addressing the requirements detailed in Section 508. The Section 508 technical and functional standards are codified at 36 CFR Part 1194 and may be accessed through the Access Board’s Web site at http://www.access-board.gov. The second regulation issued to implement Section 508 is the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR). FAR Part 39.2 requires that agency acquisitions of Electronic and Information Technology (EIT) comply with the Access Board’s standards. The entire FAR is found at Chapter 1 of the Code of Federal Register (CFR) Title 48, located at http://www.acquisition.gov. The FAR rule implementing Section 508 can be found at http://www.section508.gov. The third applicable regulation is the HHS Acquisition Regulation (HHSAR).
Regardless of format, all Web content or communications materials produced for publication on or delivery via HHS Web sites - including text, audio or video - must conform to applicable Section 508 standards to allow federal employees and members of the public with disabilities to access information that is comparable to information provided to persons without disabilities. All contractors (including subcontractors) or consultants responsible for preparing or posting content intended for use on an HHS-funded or HHS-managed Web site must comply with applicable Section 508 accessibility standards, and where applicable, those set forth in the referenced policy or standards documents below. Remediation of any materials that do not comply with the applicable provisions of 36 CFR Part 1194 as set forth in the SOW or PWS, shall be the responsibility of the contractor or consultant retained to produce the Web-suitable content or communications material.
