The purpose of Amendment 0006 to Solicitation HTC711-22-R-C003 is to complete the following actions:

a) Revise FAR 52.212-2(a)(1)(i) – Business Proposal to remove the statement: “If an Offeror is rated Unacceptable under this evaluation factor the evaluation process will cease, no further factors or subfactors will be evaluated, and the Offeror will not receive a contract award.”

b) Revise FAR 52.212-2(a)(1)(ii) – Corporate Experience to add the statement: “Only those proposals rated Acceptable will be considered for award.” and remove the statement: “If Offer is determined Unacceptable under this factor, there will be no further evaluation of the offeror’s proposal.”

c) Update Clause 252.204-7019, Notice of NIST SP 800-171 DoD Assessment Requirements. The previous version dated NOV 2020 has been replaced by the revised version dated MAR 2022.

d) Update Clause 252.204-7020, NIST SP 800-171 DoD Assessment Requirements. The previous version dated NOV 2020 has been replaced by the revised version dated MAR 2022.

52.212-2 EVALUATION—COMMERCIAL ITEMS (NOV 2021)

(a) The Government will award multiple Indefinite Delivery Indefinity Quantity (IDIQ) contracts resulting from this solicitation to the responsible offerors whose offers conforming to the solicitation will be the most advantageous to the Government, price and other factors considered. Multiple contracts will be awarded to provide Government shippers flexibility of choice and service coverage. Best value source selection procedures without tradeoffs will be utilized for each service segment (i.e.., International and Domestic) in accordance with FAR 15.101 and Department of Defense (DoD) Source Selection Procedures, dated 31 March 2016. If an Offeror is selected for award of both service segments (i.e., International and Domestic), they will be awarded only one IDIQ contract, which will encompass both service segments. Contracts will be awarded to the Offerors whose proposals have been determined acceptable under the Business Proposal, Corporate Experience, and Technical Capability evaluation factors, who have proposed fair and reasonable prices, and who have been determined responsible.

(1) The following factors shall be used to evaluate offers:

-Factor 1: Business Proposal Subfactor 1: Proposal Compliance

-Factor 2: Corporate Experience

-Factor 3: Technical Capability Subfactor 1: Technical Approach Subfactor 2: Reporting Dictionary Subfactor 3: Service Guide Subfactor 4: Small Business Utilization

-Factor 4: Price Subfactor 1: International Transportation Services Rates and Non-Basic Service Discounts Subfactor 2: Domestic Transportation Services Rates Subfactor 3: Accessorial Surcharges Subfactor 4: Annual Escalation Rates

All evaluation factors and subfactors are of equal importance.

(i) Business Proposal. Business Proposal shall be evaluated first. The Business Proposal contains one subfactor: Proposal Compliance. The Business Proposal will be evaluated on an Acceptable or Unacceptable basis at the subfactor level in accordance with the ratings identified below. Only those proposals rated Acceptable will be considered for award. If an Offeror is rated Unacceptable under this evaluation factor the evaluation process will cease, no further factors or subfactors will be evaluated, and the Offeror will not receive a contract award.

ADJECTIVAL RATING DEFINITION

Acceptable Proposal meets the minimum requirements of the solicitation.

Unacceptable Proposal fails to meet the minimum requirements of the solicitation.

(a) Subfactor 1 – Proposal Compliance. To be rated Acceptable, the Offeror:

1) shall be a CRAF program participant at time of proposal submittal;

2) shall submit all documents and information required to be submitted under the Proposal Preparation Instructions in accordance with the Addendum to FAR Clause 52.212-2;

3) the Offer must be registered at the System for Award Management (SAM.gov) website prior to proposal submission; and

4) an authorized official of the firm shall sign the offer and all Amendments and Certifications requiring signature.

5) shall submit a Small Business Subcontracting Plan (applies to Large Business concerns only) in accordance with FAR 19.702(a)(1)(i) that meets the elements in FAR 52.219-9 (Alternate II). The Contracting Officer will review the Small Business Subcontracting Plan’s information (Attachment 4) goals, and assurances to ensure all have been addressed in the plan. Once the Contracting Officer has determined the Small Business Subcontracting Plan is compliant to the subcontracting plan requirements, it shall be incorporated into and made a material part of the contract.

(ii) Corporate Experience. Corporate Experience factor will be evaluated on an Acceptable or Unacceptable basis in accordance with the ratings identified below.

Offeror must be able to provide all services identified for the service segment (International and/or Domestic) being proposed.

If proposing only one service segment, the non-proposed service segment will not result in an Unacceptable rating.
