3. Proposal Preparation Instructions Information to Offerors

3.1 General Instructions

(i) The government reserves the right not to award a contract based on the quality and quantity of proposals received. The Government intends to evaluate proposals and award a contract without discussions with Offerors (except clarifications as described in FAR 15.306(a)). Therefore, the Offeror’s initial proposal should contain the Offeror’s best terms from a technical and a price standpoint. The Government reserves the right to conduct discussions if the Contracting Officer later determines them to be necessary.

(ii) The proposal shall be clear, concise, and shall include sufficient detail for effective evaluation and for substantiating the validity of stated claims. The proposal should not simply rephrase or restate the government’s requirements but rather shall provide convincing rationale to address how the offeror intends to meet these requirements. Offerors shall assume that the Government has no prior knowledge of their facilities and experience, and will base its evaluation on the information presented in the offeror’s proposal.

(iii) Information Assurance & Cyber Security. The offeror shall submit an Information Assurance Report that describes their environment for adequately safeguarding Department of Defense (DoD) non-public information resident on or transiting on the contractor’s unclassified information systems from unauthorized access and disclosure. Protection measures applied should consider the risks (i.e. consequences and their probability) of loss, misuse, unauthorized access, or modification of information. The report shall also address the SANS (SysAdmin, Audit, Network, Security) Institute's Twenty Critical Security Controls for Effective Cyber Defense: Consensus Audit Guidelines (http://www.sans.org/critical-security-controls) and be provided in accordance with the template at Attachment 1 to the PWS. Offerors may provide additional information to support their security posture.
