3.1.3.1 The offeror shall provide either a copy of the results from the latest approved purchasing system review by the cognizant DCMA or an explanation as to why they do not have a recent approval (within the last 3 years from date of the issuance of this RFP)

3.1.4 Relevant Contracts. Relevancy will be determined based on contract references reflecting past and present performance over the past three years which is relevant to the following:

3.1.4.1 For the prime offerors, relevancy is defined as contracts that are most similar to this overall effort. Some of the factors in determining relevancy include: the diversity of required expertise, scope of PWS, magnitude (somewhat relevant is defined as a services contract at a min of $40M annually), project complexity, security classification requirements, business management and control processes, contract type(s), number of employees required, special operations support, other DOD support, and same major functional areas as GBPS PWS, etc. The more the overall effort is similar in all areas, the more relevant it becomes.

3.1.4.2 For proposed subcontractors/teaming partners, relevancy is defined by that which reflects experience in the area of expertise the subcontractor is projected to actually perform under GBPS, (i.e. specific areas in the PWS).

3.1.5 Organizational Structure Change History. Many companies have acquired, been acquired by, or otherwise merged with other companies, and/or reorganized their divisions, business groups, subsidiary companies, etc. In many cases, these changes have taken place during the time of performance of relevant present or past efforts or between conclusion of recent past efforts and this source selection. As a result, it is sometimes difficult to determine what past performance is relevant to this acquisition. Not to be used for evaluation purposes, however, in order to facilitate this relevancy determination, include in this proposal volume a "roadmap" describing all such changes in the organization of your company. As part of this explanation, show how these changes impact the relevance of any efforts you identify for past performance evaluation/performance confidence assessment. Since the Government intends to consider present and past performance information provided by other sources as well as that provided by the offeror(s), your "roadmap" should be both specifically applicable to the efforts you identify and general enough to apply to efforts on which the Government receives information from other sources.

4.0 VOLUME 4 – Factor 3 - Task Order Management and PWS

4.1. Task Order Management. The offeror shall submit the following for each task order management proposal (Subfactors 1-4). In addition, offerors must ensure task order proposals are submitted per each task order Instruction To Offerors (ITO).

The offeror shall submit an overall discussion of the Contractor’s Task Order Management approach (technical, personnel, material and travel, and innovative approach information as required) to meet the proposed PWS solution including performance measurements. In addition to the overall task order management approach, offerors shall provide information as required for the following areas:

4.1.2 Technical. Offerors shall provide a detailed basis of estimates, without the related costs data, which supports their technical approach in meeting the requirements of the SOO. The basis of estimate shall be detailed sufficiently to understand the Offeror’s approach and shall include at a minimum the labor categories/skill levels required, labor hours per category, and basis for the proposed hours which were utilized to develop the Offeror’s firm fixed price offer.

4.1.3 Personnel. Offerors shall provide information regarding proposed personnel individual’s qualification summaries/resume if requested in the specific task order ITO. Offerors may submit additional resumes limited to 2 pages each if they choose, however, only those resumes specifically addressed in each task order ITO are mandatory.

4.1.4 Material and Travel. Offerors shall provide the basis of estimate for any material or travel costs included in the price proposal. In addition, the offeror shall identify any unique Government furnished property/materials/data required for performance if not already identified in the RFP.

4.1. 5 Innovation. Offerors shall provide a clear explanation regarding proposed innovative approaches being recommended to the Government to improve productivity/ efficiency to include a discussion of how the approach meets/exceeds the Performance Based Service Contract requirements and proposes measurable deliverables that benefit the Government.

The PWS will be performance-based IAW FAR 37.602 to the maximum extent practical for the requirement. Offerors will include the task order SDS table from the SOO in all PWS submissions.

The SDS will be filled in, by including the proposed performance metrics/thresholds as required for each task order.

The proposed performance standards establish the performance level required by the Government to meet the contract requirements. The standards shall be measurable and structured to permit an assessment of the contractor’s performance.

5.0 VOLUME 5 – Factor 4 – Task order Price

5.1. Task Order Price. Factor 4. The offeror shall submit a total price for each subfactor (task order) price proposal (Subfactors 1-4). In addition, offerors must also ensure task order proposals are submitted per each task order Instruction To Offerors (ITO).

5.1.1 All subfactor prices (task orders) will be provided as a Firm Fixed Price per Section B. Price shall be inclusive of all direct (i.e., direct labor, material, travel, and ODC) and associated indirect costs plus fee related to the task order. Proposed price shall be identified by base and option periods, if applicable. However, if the Government directs the use of the cost reimbursable travel CLIN in the ITO, then all travel costs will be proposed separately.

Each price proposal should clearly indicate the appropriate Section B CLIN for each year (i.e. CLIN 0001 for base year, 0006 for travel CLIN, etc. )

1.0 Introduction: This section outlines the criteria the Government will use in evaluating the offeror’s capabilities and proposals for the Global Battlestaff and Program Support (GBPS) contract. The Government will compare each offeror’s capabilities and proposal elements against the predetermined evaluation criteria related to the Government’s requirement defined herein. This is a competitive, best value, source selection that will be conducted in accordance with Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Part 15.3 and Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement (DFARS) Part 215.3.

1.1 Evaluation: The Government will evaluate all proposals received against Qualifying Criteria, Program Management, Past and Present Performance, Task Order Management and Performance Work Statement (PWS) and Task Order Price. All qualifying criteria are evaluated on a pass or fail basis. A color rating technique will be used to evaluate the Program Management and Task Order Management and PWS. Past and Present Performance will receive an overall confidence level rating. The Task Order Price Factor and subfactors will not be given a color rating or scored. The subfactors within the Program Management are in descending order of importance and Task Order Management and PWS subfactors are equal in importance. Program Management, Past and Present Performance, and Task Order Management and PWS (Factors 1, 2, and 3) at the Factor level are equal and when combined are significantly more important than Task Order Price (Factor 4).

1.3 Qualifying Criteria: Information submitted for the qualifying criteria will be evaluated to determine if the proposal met the definitions below in order to “pass”. If the offeror fails any of the qualifying criteria, they will “fail” to qualify (i.e. be determined ineligible for award as a deficiency). The offerors will be assessed as passed if the minimum requirements definitions below have been met.

1.3.1 Facility Clearance. The offeror provided proof of a Cleared Top Secret Facility as accredited by the Defense Security Service (DSS). The offeror provided proof of a local facility within a 50 mile radius of MacDill Air Force Base that can be accredited for safeguarding at the SECRET level.

1.3.1 The offeror provided an acceptable concept for accommodating off-site performance within a 50 mile radius of MacDill Air Force Base that can be accredited at the SECRET level and would be capable of accommodating up to 67 persons if the offeror were to win those specific offsite support task orders.

1.3.2 Contract Forms and Certifications. The offeror indicated that it is eligible for a government contract based on the offeror’s responses to the representations, certifications, all contract forms, and other statements required by the RFP. All Contract Forms, Reps, and Certifications are completed as required.

1.3.3 Current Approved Accounting System. The offeror provided valid documentation from DCMA, DCAA or other Federal Audit Agency that they have an approved accounting system for operating Government cost type contracts to be considered for award.

1.3.4 Small Business Subcontracting Plan. The offeror provided a Small Business Subcontracting Plan that meets the minimum requirements in FAR Part 19.704 addressing every subpart (a) (1) through (a) (11) and minimum mandated percentages in H.19 and H.21. This plan will become part of any resultant contact award as an attachment.

1.4 FACTOR 1: Program Management: Under the Program Management Factor, the Government will evaluate the offeror’s overall approach to support the GBPS effort, teaming arrangement, and expertise to manage, transition, and organize to support the GBPS contract. Evaluation of this factor shall focus on the strengths, deficiencies, and significant weaknesses of the offeror’s proposal. Evaluation of risk associated with the offerors proposal for this factor is inherent in the evaluation. The Government will favorably consider proposed innovations and efficiencies that will enhance contract performance and are a benefit to the Government. The Government will roll up subfactor ratings into an overall rating for this factor. Subfactors are in descending order of importance.

Note that if an offeror’s proposal demonstrates a material failure to meet a Government requirement, it is a deficiency in the offeror’s proposal.

1.4.1Subfactor 1: Management Organizational Structure/Teaming Arrangements: Under this subfactor, the Government will evaluate the offeror’s outlined plans for each organizational element and defined responsibilities and business management practices, processes, and expertise to manage the GBPS contract in order to determine if the proposal exceeds, meets, or does not meet the requirements.

1.4.2 Subfactor 2: Transition Plan: Under this subfactor, the Government will evaluate the offeror’s approach to providing sound business practices, processes, expertise in their management approach to transition the GBPS contract and determine whether the proposal exceeds, meets, or does not meet the requirements. This plan will become part of any resultant contact award as an attachment.

1.5 FACTOR 2: Past and Present Performance: The Past Performance evaluation considers the offeror’s demonstrated record of performance in providing services and products that meet users’ needs and in past performance regarding subcontracting. Past Performance evaluation shall focus on the recency and relevancy as defined in Section L regarding how well the Contractor performed or is performing the same or similar type of work under other Government contracts.

1.5.1 The Government will conduct an in-depth review and evaluation of all performance data obtained to determine how closely the work performed under those efforts relates to the current requirement. The performance evaluation will be based on the data gathered by both interviews with those references provided from the offerors proposal information sheets, submitted SF 294/295s, and CPAR reports as available through the Past Performance Retrieval System (PPIRS). The government is not limited to these resources.

1.5.2 The Government will evaluate the present and past performance of the efforts (that meet the recency and relevancy criteria in Section L) in order to determine the Government’s overall level of confidence in the offeror’s ability to successfully perform the required effort.

1.6 FACTOR 3 – Task Order Management and PWS: Under the Task Order Management and PWS, the Government will evaluate the offeror’s overall approach for each separate task order to manage and execute the specific task order. This includes evaluation of the Task Order Management Approach (technical, personnel, material and travel, and innovation) and the PWS as submitted. The Government will roll up subfactor ratings into an overall Factor rating and all subfactors are equal in importance.

1.7 FACTOR 4 – Task Order Price: Price will be evaluated in order to determine that it is fair and reasonable IAW FAR 15.404 to include ensuring the price is not unrealistically high or low without valid explanation. Task order price proposal evaluation will consider the basic price and all option year prices for a total price for each task order. The Government will roll up subfactor prices into an overall total price for the overall Factor price. Price will not receive a color rating or score.

1.8 Basis of Award. To arrive at a source selection decision, the Source Selection Authority (SSA) will perform an integrated assessment using the evaluation factors described in Section M. This may result in awards being made to higher rated, potentially higher priced offerors where the decision is consistent with the evaluation factors.
