DD-254

The RTC DD-254 is valid only for this DRFP. MDA classified information is only released to the contractor for submission preparation purposes following verification of the contractor's facility clearance and safeguarding. The DD-254 shall act as security guidance for the safeguarding of RTC related classified information at the contractor facility. The Defense Security Service maintains security cognizance of classified information stored at a contractor facility. However, the following stipulations apply:

a. In Accordance With (IAW) National Industrial Security Program Operations Manual (NISPOM) Paragraphs 5-200 and 5-600, contractors shall ensure full written accounting and control over all MDA classified information provided to the contractor by MDA or created as copies by the contractor.

Requested Information

a. This DRFP is published for informational purposes only. It does not constitute a solicitation or request for proposal and shall not be construed as a commitment by the Government. Any response will be treated as information only and shall not be used as a proposal. Replies will be separated from, and have no bearing on, evaluation of proposals submitted in response to any future formal Request for Proposal. Responses in any form are not offers and the Government is under no obligation to award a contract as a result of this announcement. MDA does not intend to pay for the information solicited and will not reimburse any costs associated with responding to this DRFP.

b. Proprietary information is neither sought nor desired by MDA. If such information is submitted, it must clearly be marked "proprietary" on every sheet containing such information, and the proprietary information must be segregated to the maximum extent practicable from other portions of the response (e.g., use an attachment or exhibit).

Respondents are responsible for adequately marking propriety information contained in their response.

Non-Government Personnel

The Government intends to use third party, non-Government (.i.e. contractor) support personnel as subject matter experts in the review of responses received, including the review of any marked or unmarked proprietary information provided. Appropriate non-disclosure agreements will be executed between the third party, non-Government support personnel and the Government. A submission of a response to this DRFP constitutes the Respondent’s acknowledgement and agreement that the information provided in the response, including any marked or unmarked proprietary or source selection information, may be disclosed to these third party, non-Government support personnel. Respondents have the option to not agree to share data with other than Government personnel. If this option is chosen, the Contracting Officer must be notified with two (2) days after receipt of this DRFP.

Organizational Conflict of Interest

Respondents must notify the Contracting Officer immediately of any known conflicts of interest.
