INTERAGENCY HELICOPTER LOAD CALCULATION

Instructions for completing the solicitation’s interagency Helicopter load chart:

1. HELICOPTER EQUIPPED WEIGHT – Equipped Weight equals the Empty Weight (as listed in the Weight and Balance Data) plus the weight of lubricants and onboard equipment required by contract (i.e. survival kit, rappel bracket, defensive armor).

2. FLIGHT CREW WEIGHT – Weight of the Pilot and any other assigned flight crewmembers on board (i.e.

Co-pilot, flight engineer, navigator). Number of crew multiplied by 250 pounds.

3. FUEL WEIGHT – Total number of gallons onboard multiplied by the weight per gallon (Jet Fuel = 7.0 lbs/gal; AvGas = 6.0 lbs/gal). The number of gallons required is calculated in the following manner:

Number of gallons of fuel is the amount the aircraft requires to travel 200nm at the aircraft’s cruise speed.

The number of gallons is then increased by the fuel weight of the 1 hour and 30 minute reserve (01+30) to obtain the total gallons of fuel onboard.

For example, if the proposed aircraft’s cruise speed is 100 nautical miles per hour and the fuel consumption rate as determined from the HELICOPTER SERVICES FUEL CONSUMPTION, AND WEIGHT REDUCTION CHART provided above is 58 gallons per hour then the number of gallons would calculate to be 116 gallons ((200 nautical mph/100 nautical mph) * 58). The number of gallons of fuel for the fuel reserve would calculate to be 87 gallons (1.5 *58). Therefore, the total number of gallons onboard is 203 gallons (116+87). The fuel weight would be 1,421 pounds (203 Gallons * 7 pounds).

4. OPERATING WEIGHT – Add items 1, 2 and 3.

5a. PERFORMANCE REFERENCES – List the specific Flight Manual supplement and hover performance charts used to derive Computed Gross Weight for Line 5b. In addition, provide a copy of the Flight Manual supplement and hover performance charts with the appropriate markings showing how it was derived.

5b. COMPUTED GROSS WEIGHT - Compute gross weights for HOGE for a Non-Jettisonable payload from the appropriate Flight Manual hover performance charts using the Pressure Altitude (PA) of 6,500 feet and temperature (OAT) 30 o Celsius.

6. WEIGHT REDUCTION – The Government Weight Reduction is required. The appropriate Weight Reduction value, for make & model, can be found in the Helicopter Services Fuel Consumption, and Weight Reduction Chart provided above.

7. ADJUSTED WEIGHT – Line 5b minus Line 6.

8. GROSS WEIGHT LIMITATION – Enter applicable gross weight limit from Limitations section of the basic

Flight Manual or the appropriate Flight Manual Supplement. This may be Maximum Gross Weight Limit for Take-Off and Landing, a Weight/Altitude/Temperature (WAT) limitation or a Maximum Gross Weight Limit.

9. SELECTED WEIGHT – The lowest weight, either line 7 or 8, will be entered. Applicable limitations in the Flight Manual must not be exceeded.

10. OPERATING WEIGHT – Use the value entered in Line 4.

11. ALLOWABLE PAYLOAD – Line 9 minus Line 10 is the maximum allowable weight (passengers and/or cargo) that can be carried for the scenario. Weight must be greater than 500 pounds.

(End of Provision)

52.212-2 ADDENDUM

Addendum to 52.212-2 EVALUATION--COMMERCIAL ITEMS

(a) The Government will award a contract resulting from this solicitation to the responsible offeror whose offer conforming to the solicitation will be most advantageous to the Government, price and other factors considered. The following factors shall be used to evaluate offers:

1. This acquisition will be conducted as Low Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) source selection in accordance with FAR 15.101-2 and USTRANSCOM source selection procedures. The objective of the source selection will be to select an offeror that represents the best value to the Government, price and other factors considered. For a proposal to be considered for award it must comply with all required terms and conditions of the solicitation, demonstrate the technical capability to meet or exceed the PWS requirements, and reflect a fair and reasonable price. Each offeror’s past performance will be considered in the Government’s responsibility determination for that offeror. Each offeror’s responsibility will be determined IAW the criteria specified in FAR 9.104-1. The Government intends to evaluate proposals and award a contract without conducting discussions. The Government reserves the right, however, to conduct discussions, written and/or oral, with offerors if it is determined to be in the Government’s best interest.

2. The Government intends to award a single contract as a result of the solicitation. The Government reserves the right to award no contract at all, depending on the quality of the proposals submitted and availability of funds. In addition to meeting all terms and conditions of the solicitation, each offeror's proposal will be evaluated against the following evaluation criteria:

Technical

Subfactor 1: Technical Approach – Due to the numerous technical requirements in the PWS, the two following technical requirements were selected for the technical evaluation: NOTE: Aircraft lift capabilities will be evaluated using the offeror’s completed HOGE Chart, Attachment 5. Evaluation will only be conducted on the offeror’s primary* aircraft; however, any additional aircraft offered must also meet all requirements of this solicitation.

a) Capable of carrying an external non-jettison cargo weight of 500 pounds (excluding crews weight) while operating at 30 degrees Celsius at 6,500 feet pressure altitude while Hovering Out of Ground Effect

(HOGE).

b) Seating for 5 passengers along with cargo for a total internal weight of 500 pounds (excluding crews weight) while operating at 30 degrees Celsius at 6,500 feet pressure altitude while Hovering Out of Ground Effect (HOGE). A narrative that addresses the capability of the offerors aircraft to move 5 passengers must be provided.

Subfactor 2: Information Assurance & Cyber Security

Cost (Price)

3. As this is a LPTA procedure, tradeoffs will not be permitted for the initial contract award and proposals will be evaluated for acceptability. All offerors Total Evaluated Price will be ranked from lowest to highest. Each offeror’s technical approach will be rated as acceptable or unacceptable. Past performance will only be evaluated on the lowest-priced technically acceptable offeror. If that offeror’s past performance is determined to be responsible, award will be made to that offeror without consideration of any other offerors. In the event that the Government does not determine that offeror’s past performance to be responsible, the next lowest-priced technically acceptable offeror will be evaluated and the process will continue (in order by price) until an offeror receives a responsible past performance determination.

An award will be made to the lowest-priced technically acceptable offeror whose proposed prices are determined to be fair and reasonable.

4. Technical Approach: Adjectival ratings will be used for rating the offeror's technical proposal. Each contractor's proposal will be evaluated and given an adjectival rating as follows:

4.1 Acceptable – For Subfactor 1, Technical Approach – To be rated Acceptable, the approach must meet specified minimum performance or capability requirements delineated in the Request for Proposal. For Subfactor 2, Information Assurance & Cyber Security, to be rated Acceptable, the offeror must submit an Information Assurance Report that describes their environment for adequately safeguarding DOD non-public information resident on or transiting on the contractor's unclassified information systems from unauthorized access and disclosure AND 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). To receive a Technical Factor rating of Acceptable, an offeror must receive Acceptable ratings for both technical subfactors.

4.2 Unacceptable - Fails to meet specified minimum performance or capability requirements; proposal has one or more deficiencies. Proposals with an unacceptable rating will not be considered further.

5. Offerors are cautioned to submit sufficient information in the format specified in the solicitation.

Offerors may be asked to clarify certain aspects of their proposal but the Contracting Officer reserves the right to award a contract without the opportunity for revisions.

6. Price: The Government will conduct a price analysis to determine whether the proposed prices are fair and reasonable. This determination may be accomplished by one or more of the techniques set forth in FAR 15.404- 1(b)(2). The Contracting Officer will fully document the price evaluation.

(i) The total evaluated cost (price) for each offeror will be established based on the total overall price for all

CLINS and will include the evaluated price for 6 months of extended service which may be ordered under FAR 52.217-8, OPTION TO EXTEND SERVICES. Because the Government will provide Jet A fuel for direct contract flying (in accordance with paragraph 3.1 of the PWS) under the resultant contract, this estimate is included in the total evaluated cost (price) for the purpose of evaluating the fuel efficiency of each offeror’s primary* aircraft as designated in the List of Aircraft located in the Schedule. The estimated cost of fuel will be calculated by the Government as follows:

*The primary aircraft is the aircraft that will be predominately based at Ft. Irwin in support of this contract.

Fuel Burn Rate (gallons/hour) x 1895 (total estimated hours) = gallons used x 3.62 (Jet A) = Total Estimated Cost of Fuel.

Fuel Burn Rate in Attachment 5, HOGE Chart, will be used and shall be applied for this calculation.

(ii) Adequate price competition is expected utilizing FAR Part 12 procedures; therefore, certified cost or pricing data will not be requested. However, should the Contracting Officer make a determination during the evaluation process that adequate price competition does not exist, other than cost or pricing information may be requested for evaluation purposes along with comparing proposed prices to other commercial prices paid or historical data to assist in negotiations and/or the price reasonableness determination.

(iii) Submission of unrealistically low prices submitted initially or subsequently, may be grounds for eliminating a proposal from the competition on the basis that the offeror does not understand the requirements or has made an improvident proposal. Further, the Government may determine that a proposal is unacceptable if the prices proposed are materially unbalanced. Unbalanced pricing exists when, despite an acceptable total evaluated price, the price of one or more contract line items is significantly overstated or understated as indicated by the application of price analysis techniques. A proposal may be rejected if the Contracting Officer determines that the lack of balance poses an unacceptable risk to the Government.

7. The following conditions shall be met in order to be eligible for award:

7.1.1 The offeror must be determined responsible according to the standards in FAR subpart 9.1.

7.1.2 Pursuant to 32 C.F.R. §861.4, the offeror must be a DOD Approved Air Carrier for the aircraft offered by the closing date of the solicitation.

7.1.3 The offeror's proposal must comply with requirements of law, regulation, and all conditions set forth in the solicitation. The offeror's proposal must demonstrate a clear understanding of the nature and scope of work required. Failure to provide a reasonable and complete proposal may reflect lack of understanding of the work requirements of the contract and may result in a determination that the proposal is unacceptable. The Government does not assume a duty to search for clarification data to cure problems or inconsistencies with an offeror's proposal.

7.1.4 Other information submitted by the offeror must comply with the conditions set forth in the solicitation. The Government reserves the right to make the final determination as to whether the other information complies with the conditions set forth in the solicitation.

8. Non-Government Personnel. No non-Government personnel will be involved in the source selection.
