PART I – THE SCHEDULE

SECTION A – SOLICITATION/CONTRACT FORM

A.1. NOTICE TO OFFERORS

A.1.1. Solicitation Form

(a) The Offeror shall submit the Standard Form (SF) 33, Solicitation, Offer, and Award, provided with this Solicitation.

(b) The Offeror shall fill out blocks 12 through blocks 18 as the Official Legal Entity in accordance with Section L.2.8 and Section L.5.1.1.

A.1.2. OASIS 8(a) Set-Aside SubPool On-Ramping

(a) This Solicitation is a re-opening of Solicitation GS00Q-13-DR-0002 in order to conduct an 8(a)

Competitive Small Business Set-Aside SubPool On-Ramping in accordance with Section H.15.4 of the OASIS SB Contract. Each newly formed SubPool will become a new MA-IDIQ contract in the family of OASIS SB contracts.

(b) OASIS SB was originally solicited under Solicitation No. GS00Q-13-DR-0002 through Amendment No. 11.

Original awards were made and a notice to proceed on contract awards was issued in June 2014. This 8(a) set-aside SubPool On-Ramping is intended to set aside requirements for competitive awards under the 8(a) program, with task orders issued on either a sole source or competitive basis as determined by task order issuing agencies. OASIS SB 8(a) SubPools will be comprised of 6 separate Government-wide Multiple Award, Indefinite Delivery, Indefinite Quantity (MA-IDIQ) task order contracts that span 29 North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) Codes and 5 NAICS Code Exceptions under the economic subsector 541, Professional, Scientific, and Technical Services. Each SubPool has a corresponding OASIS SB Pool covering the same NAICS codes, with the only distinction being that, at the IDIQ level, the Pools are total small business set-asides, while the SubPools are 8(a) competitive set-asides. Any OASIS SB Pool contractors who are eligible 8(a) concerns will qualify for inclusion into the 8(a) SubPools, provided they have the requisite Pool Qualification experience. Each SubPool will be a separate OASIS SB MA-IDIQ task order contract (See Section H.4).

(c) GS00Q-13-DR-0002-8(a) is the conformed Solicitation for the OASIS 8(a) set-aside SubPool On-Ramping.

(d) The evaluation factors and award decision of the original contracts were based upon Solicitation GS00Q- 13-DR-0002. The evaluation factors and award decision for this OASIS SB 8(a) SubPool On-Ramping is based upon substantially the same content as the original Solicitation. The evaluation scoring table in Section M.6 remains unchanged from the original Solicitation.

(e) The Government may reject any proposal that is incomplete or does not comply with the instructions set forth in Sections J, K, and/or L of this Solicitation.

A.1.3. Solicitation Notice

(a) This Solicitation is an 8(a) Competitive Small Business Set-Aside On-Ramping to create SubPools under

OASIS SB Pools 1, 2, 3, 4, 5B, and 6 in accordance with FAR 19.502-2, FAR 19.804-2, and FAR 19.804- 3, with the ability to do 8(a) sole source and 8(a) Competitive Set-Aside task orders.

(b) Multiple awards shall be made in each of the SubPools. Offerors can receive a SubPool award by either:

1. Submitting a proposal in response to the open season Solicitation GS00Q-13-DR-0002-8(a), or

2. Possessing an OASIS SB contract in the corresponding OASIS SB Pool, submitting Pool Qualification projects for the SubPool, and being determined eligible for 8(a) award pursuant to Section L.5.1.2.

All awards are subject to confirmation of eligibility to receive a competitive 8(a) award by the SBA. If the SBA determines an apparently successful Offeror to be ineligible, no award will be made to that Offeror.

(c) Because existing OASIS SB eligible contractors (see section A.1.3(c)(2) above) are required to submit significantly fewer proposal items, and are not competing directly against the open season proposals (e.g., they will not assign themselves a “score,” just Pool Qualification projects), the Government reserves the right to issue awards to existing OASIS SB contractors who automatically qualify for the SubPool prior to issuing awards to the “open season” On-Ramping where award is determined by the 8(a) set aside competition if determined to be in the best interest of the Government.

(d) Awards resulting from open season competition in each SubPool are detailed below. In the event of a tie at the maximum number position (as applicable), all open season competition Offerors tied will receive an award in the respective SubPool. Because this Solicitation covers 6 OASIS SB MA-IDIQ task order contracts, each SubPool has a predominant NAICS Code specified below. A single Offeror may compete for more than one OASIS SB 8(a) SubPool (See Section L.5.1.2).

1. SubPool 1, OASIS SB MA-IDIQ Contract Number TBD at time of award:

The NAICS Code for this acquisition is: 541330

The small business size standard is: $15M Maximum number of 8(a) Open Season On-Ramping (ref. Section A.1.3(b)(1)) awards: 30

2. SubPool 2, OASIS SB MA-IDIQ Contract Number TBD at time of award:

The NAICS Code for this acquisition is: 541219

The small business size standard is: $20.5M Maximum number of 8(a) Open Season On-Ramping (ref. Section A.1.3(b)(1)) awards: 8

3. SubPool 3, OASIS SB MA-IDIQ Contract Number TBD at time of award:

The NAICS Code for this acquisition is: 541330, Exception A

The small business size standard is: $38.5M Maximum number of 8(a) Open Season On-Ramping (ref. Section A.1.3(b)(1)) awards: 20

4. SubPool 4, OASIS SB MA-IDIQ Contract Number TBD at time of award:

The NAICS Code for this acquisition is: 541715

The small business size standard is: 1,000 employees Maximum number of 8(a) Open Season On-Ramping (ref. Section A.1.3(b)(1)) awards: 8

5. SubPool 5B, OASIS SB MA-IDIQ Contract Number TBD at time of award:

The NAICS Code for this acquisition is: 541715, Exception C

The small business size standard is: 1,250 employees Maximum number of 8(a) Open Season On-Ramping (ref. Section A.1.3(b)(1)) awards: 8

6. SubPool 6, OASIS SB MA-IDIQ Contract Number TBD at time of award:

The NAICS Code for this acquisition is: 541715, Exception A

The small business size standard is: 1,500 employees Maximum number of 8(a) Open Season On-Ramping (ref. Section A.1.3(b)(1)) awards: 8

(e) There is no limitation on the number of SubPool awards issued to existing OASIS SB contractors (ref.

Section A.1.3(b)(2)), provided they are determined eligible by the SBA and submit acceptable Pool Qualification projects compliant with Section L.5.1.2 of this Solicitation, GS00Q-13-DR-0002-8(a). All Prime/Subcontractor CTA members must be small businesses under the applicable size standard, as reflected in their representations and certifications (see Section L.5.1.10(c)(1)), and all CTA members must also be current participants in the 8(a) Small Business Development program. The date for 8(a) program eligibility to receive an 8(a) SubPool award is not based on the date of the original OASIS SB Solicitation or any subsequent On-Ramping Solicitations, but instead is determined based on the Solicitation closing date for this On-Ramping, GS00Q-13-DR-0002-8(a). An existing OASIS SB contract holder who was an eligible participant in the 8(a) program at the time of award, but is no longer an active participant in the 8(a) program at the closing date of GS00Q-13-DR-0002-8(a) would therefore not be eligible to receive a SubPool award.

(END OF SECTION A)

PART I – THE SCHEDULE

SECTION B – SUPPLIES OR SERVICES AND PRICES/COSTS

B.1. BACKGROUND

One Acquisition Solution for Integrated Services – Small Business (OASIS SB) is designed to address agencies’ need for a full range of service requirements that integrate multiple professional service disciplines and ancillary services/products with the flexibility for all contract types and pricing at the task order level.

OASIS SB is a family of 7 separate Government-wide Multiple Award, Indefinite Delivery, Indefinite Quantity (MA- IDIQ) task order contracts that span 29 North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) Codes and 6 NAICS Code Exceptions under the economic subsector 541, Professional, Scientific, and Technical Services.

Throughout this document, these contracts will collectively be referred to as a single contract called “OASIS SB”. Each of the 7 separate MA-IDIQ task order contracts will be individually referred to as “Pools” within OASIS SB.

The services to be provided under OASIS SB are intended to meet the professional service mission requirements of all Federal agencies, including all organizations within the Department of Defense (DoD) and National Security Community.

The scope of professional services under OASIS SB is defined in Section C.

B.1.1. Authority

The Administrator of the U.S. General Services Administration (GSA) is specifically authorized to purchase supplies and non-personal services on behalf of other agencies under the Federal Property and Administrative Services Act (40 U.S.C.

501).

The authority for the award and administration of OASIS SB and the delegation of authority for the award and administration of task orders under OASIS SB are defined in Section G.

Hereafter, the “OASIS SB Contracting Officer” will be referred to as the “OASIS SB CO” and the “Ordering Contracting Officer” at the task order level will be referred to as the “OCO”.

B.1.2. Economy Act

In accordance with FAR 17.502-2(b), the Economy Act does not apply to task orders awarded under OASIS SB under the authority of 40 U.S.C. 501.

B.1.3. Contract Type

OASIS SB is a family of Multiple Award, Indefinite Delivery, Indefinite Quantity (MA-IDIQ) task order contracts for Government-wide professional service based requirements which is available for use by all Federal agencies and other entities as listed in the current GSA Order, OGP 4800.2I, Eligibility to Use GSA Sources of Supply and Services.

OASIS SB allows for all contract types at the task order level (e.g., Cost-Reimbursement (all types), Fixed-Price (all types), Time-and-Materials, and Labor-Hour). Task orders may also combine more than one contract type (e.g., FFP/Cost, FFP/Labor Hour etc.). Additionally, task orders may include incentives, performance based measures, multi-year or option periods, and commercial or non-commercial items.

B.1.4. Minimum Guarantee and Maximum Ceiling

The minimum guarantee is $2,500 for each OASIS SB Contractor that does not obtain a task order award for the term of OASIS SB, including Option I, if exercised.

The minimum dollar limitation for an individual task order must exceed the Simplified Acquisition Threshold as defined in FAR Subpart 2.101, as amended. There is no maximum dollar ceiling for each individual task order placed under OASIS

SB.

An unlimited number of task orders may be placed under OASIS SB for the term of OASIS SB, including Option I, if exercised.

There is no maximum dollar ceiling for OASIS SB, including Option I, if exercised.

B.1.5. Contract Access Fee (CAF)

GSA operating costs associated with the management and administration of OASIS SB are recovered through a CAF. The CAF is a percentage of the total task order amount invoiced and the CAF percentage is set at the discretion of GSA. GSA maintains the unilateral right to change the percentage at any time. See Section G.3.1 for more details regarding CAF.

B.2. TASK ORDER PRICING

OASIS SB provides all Federal agencies the flexibility to determine fair and reasonable pricing tailored to the ordering agency’s requirement dependent upon level of competition, risk, uncertainties, complexity, urgency, and contract type. The OCO has the authority and responsibility for the determination of cost or price reasonableness for their agency’s task order requirements. Adequate price competition at the task order level, in response to an individual requirement, establishes the most accurate, fair, and reasonable pricing for that requirement.

The OCO must identify the applicable contract type for all CLINs in each OASIS SB task order.

B.2.1. Standardized Labor Categories

OASIS SB provides standardized labor categories that correspond to the Office of Management and Budget’s (OMB) Standard Occupational Classification (SOC) for which the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) maintains compensation data.

In accordance with Section J.1, Attachment (1), all of the OASIS SB standardized labor categories are either an individual labor category that is mapped to a single SOC and functional description or a labor category group that is mapped to multiple SOC Numbers and functional descriptions. The OASIS SB labor category groups were established based upon BLS published data regarding similar direct labor compensation within a grouping of multiple SOC numbers and functional descriptions.

The OCO must specifically state in the task order Solicitation if the standardized labor categories in Section J.1, Attachment (1) apply or do not apply. OCOs will be trained by GSA in the use of the SOC direct labor pricing estimates for their task order requirements, which incorporates pricing considerations for over 640 metropolitan and non-metropolitan areas in the CONUS and US territories.

The Contractor shall become proficient in the use of the BLS SOC system in preparation for submitting cost/price proposals under task order Solicitations that require standardized labor category submissions in accordance with Section J.1, Attachment (1).

For each SOC, the BLS provides a National 50th Percentile estimate, a National 75th Percentile estimate, and a National 90th Percentile estimate. Also identified are the states where each occupation is paid the highest. While not identified on the BLS website, the BLS provides a 50th Percentile estimate, a 75th Percentile estimate, and a 90th Percentile estimate for each SOC in each state, metropolitan, and non-metropolitan area in the United States. This information will be incorporated into a labor estimating tool to be provided to OCOs and Contractors on the official GSA OASIS SB webpage at www.gsa.gov/oasis.

Except for ancillary labor as defined under Section B.3, when responding to a request for proposal under task order Solicitations, regardless of contract type, the Contractor may be required by the OCO to identify both Prime and Subcontractor labor using the OASIS SB Labor Categories and corresponding SOC Number that applies. The Contractor may deviate from the Junior, Journeyman, Senior, and Subject Matter Expert (SME) definitions in Section J.1, Attachment (1), as long as the Contractor clearly identifies the deviation in their proposals. Additionally, the following qualification substitution chart applies:

Bachelor's Degree 6 years’ work experience may be substituted for a Bachelor's Degree Associate's Degree plus 4 years’ work experience may be substituted for a Bachelor's Degree

Master's Degree 12 years’ work experience may be substituted for a Master's Degree

Bachelor's Degree plus 8 years work experience may be substituted for a Master's Degree

Doctorate's Degree 20 years’ work experience may be substituted for a Doctorate's Degree

Bachelor's Degree plus 16 years work experience, or a Master's Degree plus 12 years work experience may be substituted for a Doctorate's Degree

B.2.2. Fixed Price Task Orders

Fixed price is defined under Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Subpart 16.2, Fixed-Price Contracts, and other applicable agency-specific regulatory supplements.

http://www.gsa.gov/oasis

B.2.3. Cost Reimbursement Task Orders

Cost Reimbursement is defined under FAR Subpart 16.3, Cost-Reimbursement Contracts, and other applicable agency-specific regulatory supplements.

The Contractor shall have and maintain an acceptable accounting system that will permit timely development of all necessary cost data in the form required by the proposed contract type.

The Contractor may be required to submit a cost proposal with supporting information for each cost element, including, but not limited to, direct labor, fringe benefits, overhead, general and administrative (G&A) expenses, facilities capital cost of money, other direct costs, and fee consistent with their cost accounting system, provisional billing rates, and forward pricing rate agreements.

Cost Reimbursement task orders shall only be used for the acquisition of non-commercial items.

B.2.4. Incentive Task Orders

Incentives are defined under FAR Subpart 16.4, Incentive Contracts, and other applicable agency-specific regulatory supplements.

B.2.5. T&M and L-H Task Orders

Time and Materials (T&M) and Labor Hour (L-H) is defined under FAR Subpart 16.6, T&M and L-H Contracts, and other applicable agency-specific regulatory supplements.

The Contractor may provide separate and/or blended loaded hourly labor rates for prime Contractor labor, each Subcontractor, and/or each Division, Subsidiary, or Affiliate in accordance with the provisions set forth in FAR 52.216-29, DFARs 252.216-7002, FAR 52.216-30, or FAR 52.216-31. The OCO must identify which provision is applicable in the task order Solicitation and the Contractor must comply with the provision.

T&M and L-H task orders require labor categories and their associated rates to be identified in the task order award document.

Ancillary subcontract labor shall be proposed and awarded as Materials in accordance with FAR 52.232-7, Payments under Time-and-Materials and Labor-Hour Contracts.

B.2.5.1. Ceiling Rates for T&M and L-H Task Orders

When preparing Solicitations for T&M and/or L-H task order Contract Line Item Numbers (CLINs), the OCO must select one of the following provisions in the task order Solicitation.

1. FAR 52.216-29 Time-and-Materials/Labor-Hour Proposal Requirements—Non-Commercial Item

Acquisition With Adequate Price Competition

2. FAR 52.216-30 Time-and-Materials/Labor-Hour Proposal Requirements—Non-Commercial Item Acquisition

Without Adequate Price Competition

3. FAR 52.216-31 Time-and-Materials/Labor-Hour Proposal Requirements—Commercial Item Acquisition

For organizations within DoD, when selecting FAR 52.216-29, the OCO must also select DFARs 252.216-7002, Alternate A.

When the provision FAR 52.216-30,Time-and-Materials/Labor-Hour Proposal Requirements--Non Commercial Item Acquisitions Without Adequate Price Competition is selected or; FAR 52.216-31, Time-and-Materials/Labor-Hour Proposal Requirements--Commercial Item Acquisition is selected and there is an exception to fair opportunity, OASIS SB establishes maximum allowable labor rates in the form of fully burdened ceiling rates for all professional, non-ancillary, CONUS, T&M/L-H labor for both Government and Contractor Sites. Based on the specific task order requirements, the OCO is authorized to exceed the OASIS SB ceiling rates for those labor categories that include Secret/Top Secret/SCI labor and/or OCONUS locations, if necessary.

The ceiling rates do not apply when the provision FAR 52.216-29 Time-and-Materials/Labor-Hour Proposal Requirements— Non-Commercial Item Acquisition With Adequate Price Competition is selected or; FAR 52.216-29 with DFARs 252.216-7002, Alternate A, is selected or; FAR 52.216-31, Time-and-Materials/Labor-Hour Proposal Requirements-Commercial Item Acquisition is selected and there is not an exception to fair opportunity.

The fully burdened T&M ceiling rates awarded at initial contract award shall serve as the basis for all future year pricing for those ceiling rates. In order to determine future year ceiling rate pricing, the originally awarded rates will have an escalation factor applied. This escalation factor will be the average annual Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) Economic Cost Index (ECI) for the previous three years. In Year 5 of OASIS SB, if the average annual ECI for the previous three years is higher than at time of OASIS SB award, the ceiling rates for Years 6 through 15 will be adjusted by the difference of percentage increase. For example, if the BLS ECI index was 2.23% at time of proposal submission and the BLS ECI index is 3.16% in Year 5 of OASIS SB, the ceiling rates for years 6 through 15 will be adjusted by 0.93% per year on a cumulative basis. If BLS ECI index in Year 5 of OASIS SB is equal to or below the BLS ECI index at time of award, the ceiling rates will remain unchanged.

In Year 10 of OASIS SB, if the previous three year average annual BLS ECI index for the previous three years is higher than Year 5 of OASIS SB, the ceiling rates for Years 11 through 15 will be adjusted by the difference of percentage increase in accordance with the example above. If the average index in Year 10 is equal to or below the average index in Year 5, the ceiling rates will remain unchanged.

The OASIS SB ceiling rates that are in effect at the time a task order is awarded shall remain with the task order award during the entire term of the task order, including task orders with option periods.

See Section F.3, Period of Performance, for OASIS SB and task orders awarded under OASIS SB.

B.3. ANCILLARY SUPPORT

Ancillary support, integral and necessary as part of a total integrated solution within the scope of OASIS SB for which there is not a labor category specified in OASIS SB or includes other direct costs such as travel, materials, equipment, Subcontractors, etc., to obtain a total professional service solution, are allowable costs and may be included within an individual task order under OASIS SB.

Ancillary support may be either:

(1) “Ancillary-in-Scope” meeting the definition of an employee employed in a bona fide professional capacity contained in 29 CFR 541, Subpart D or Other Direct Costs as described above, OR

(2) “Ancillary Out-of-Scope” as described in Section C.4.

The Contractor should propose and identify each ancillary support service or other direct costs separately and the OCO should identify each ancillary support service or other direct costs by a separate CLIN on the task order award.

The Contractor shall report in the CPRM all ancillary labor in accordance with Section G.3.2.

B.3.1. Specialized Professional Services Labor

Specialized professional services labor is defined as bona fide executive, administrative, or professional skills for which the expertise required or duties performed are within the scope of OASIS SB but are so specialized that they are not explicitly defined in any labor category description in Section J.1, Attachment (1). The Contractor may propose specialized professional services labor when proposing “Ancillary-In-Scope” support as defined in Section B.3; however, the OCO will determine whether circumstances merit the use of specialized professional skills. Whenever possible, this specialized professional labor shall be mapped to the BLS SOC.

If the use of specialized professional services labor becomes frequent, additional labor categories and their associated ceiling rates may be added by bilateral modification to OASIS SB.

B.3.2. Construction Wage Rate Requirements

To the extent that any ancillary labor for construction, alteration and repair are within the scope of OASIS SB and subject to the construction wage rate requirements in accordance with FAR Subpart 22.4 and other applicable agency specific regulatory supplements, the OCO must identify such work in the task order Solicitation and make a determination as to whether wage determinations are to be applied or not.

OASIS SB does not include clauses applicable to any construction, alteration, or repair work that is part of a total solution within the scope of OASIS SB. The OCO must incorporate the appropriate clauses and provisions in each task order Solicitation and subsequent award when construction wage rate requirements apply.

B.3.3. Service Contract Labor Standards

The OASIS SB labor categories, identified in Section J.1, Attachment (1), are considered bona fide executive, administrative, and professional labor that are exempt from the service contract labor standards.

To the extent that any ancillary labor for services are within the scope of OASIS SB and subject to the service contract labor standards in accordance with FAR Subpart 22.10 and other applicable agency specific regulatory supplements, the OCO must identify such work in the task order Solicitation and make a determination as to whether service contract wage determinations are to be applied or not.

OASIS SB does not include clauses applicable to any service contract labor standards that are part of a total solution within the scope of OASIS SB. The OCO must incorporate the appropriate clauses and provisions in each task order Solicitation and subsequent award when service contract labor standards apply.

B.3.4. Labor outside the Continental United States (OCONUS)

“OCONUS” is defined as other than the 48 contiguous states plus the District of Columbia. It is anticipated that there may be task orders for work OCONUS.

The U.S. Department of State’s Bureau of Administration, Office of Allowances, publishes quarterly report indexes of living costs abroad, per-diem rate maximums, quarter’s allowances, hardship differentials, and danger pay allowances.

The Department of State Standardized Regulations (DSSR) is the controlling regulations for allowances and benefits available to all U.S. Government civilians assigned to foreign areas. For task orders issued under OASIS SB, Contractor civilians assigned to foreign areas may receive the allowances and benefits in the DSSR but, shall not receive allowance and benefits in excess of those identified in the DSSR.

For OCONUS task orders where costs are not specifically addressed in the DSSR, the Government will reimburse the Contractor for all reasonable, allowable, and allocable costs in accordance with FAR 31, Contract Cost Principles and Procedures, and other applicable agency specific regulatory supplements.

B.3.5. Travel

Travel costs may be firm fixed price or reimbursed at actual cost in accordance with the limitations set forth in FAR 31.205-46 and other applicable agency-specific regulatory supplements. Unless otherwise directed by task order terms and conditions, the Contractor may apply indirect costs to travel consistent with the Contractor’s usual accounting practices.

B.3.6. Materials and Equipment

Material means property that may be consumed or expended during performance, component parts of a higher assembly, or items that lose their individual identity through incorporation into an end item. Equipment means a tangible item that is functionally complete for its intended purpose, durable, nonexpendable, and needed for performance.

Materials and Equipment shall be priced in accordance with the terms of the task order award, contract type, and applicable FAR and agency-specific regulatory supplements. Unless otherwise directed by task order terms and conditions, the Contractor may apply indirect costs to materials and equipment consistent with the Contractor’s usual accounting practices.

B.3.7. Subcontracting

For non-commercial items, subcontracting shall follow the procedures set forth in FAR Part 44, Subcontracting Policies and Procedures, and other applicable agency-specific regulatory supplements. For commercial items, subcontracting shall follow the procedures set forth in FAR Part 12, Acquisition of Commercial Items, and other applicable agency-specific regulatory supplements.
