PROCUREMENT APPROACH: The Contractor’s quoted item descriptions shall reflect the characteristics and level of quality that will satisfy the Government’s need as described in the Schedule of Supplies/Services. A single firm-fixed price order will be issued against the authorized GSA contract, and it is the Government’s intent to award on an “all-or-none” basis to satisfy this requirement. The Government reserves the right to issue no award at all resulting from this solicitation.

This is a notice that this order is a total set-aside for small business concerns. Only quotes submitted by small business concerns will be accepted by the Government. Any quote that is submitted by a contractor that is not a small business will not be considered for award.

This requirement is restricted to those contractors that can provide Genealogy Services and are considered a small business concern.

PAYMENT TERMS: NET 30. Invoices must be submitted via the Wide Area Workflow (WAWF) in accordance with DFARS 252.232-7006 which is included in this solicitation.

REQUIRED DELIVERY/PERIOD OF PERFORMANCE: The Government requires a twelve (12) month base period of performance, beginning at time of award. The anticipated base period of performance are as follows:

Base and Option Periods

Performance Of Performance CLINS Base Period 25 September 2023 thru 24 September 2024 0001

TECHNICAL COMPLIANCE. To ensure technical compliance:

a) To ensure technical compliance the quoter must clearly demonstrate that they can meet the solicitation requirements. The manufacturer’s name and manufacturer’s complete part numbers of all items quoted shall be submitted in the quote. A mere statement that the quoter will meet the Government’s requirement in NOT sufficient.

b) Clearly state whether the quoter can meet the requested delivery date. Vendors who cannot meet the required period of performance will not be considered technically acceptable.

SUBMISSION OF QUOTES. Quotes shall be submitted no later than the time and date specified on Block 8 of page 1 of the SF1449 solicitation. Quotes shall be submitted electronically via the GSA E-Buy website and Quotes shall be submitted electronically via the Contract Specialist at kellie.holley@usmc.mil.

Delivery delays that cause a quote to be late are no the responsibility of the Government agency.

CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION: The Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) and its amendments have resulted in an increasing number of requests from outside the Government for copies of contract qualifications and quotes/proposals submitted to federal agencies. If a Quoter’s submissions contain information that he/she believes should be withheld from such requestors under FOIA on the grounds that they contain “trade secrets and commercial or financial information” (5 USC 552(b)(4)), the Quoter should mark its submissions in the following manner:

The following notice should be placed on the title page: “Some parts of this document, as identified on individual pages, are considered by the submitter to be privileged or confidential trade secrets or commercial or financial information not subject to mandatory disclosure under the Freedom of Information Act. Material considered privileged or confidential on such grounds is contained on page(s) .”

(End of provision)

52.212-2

52.212-2 ADDENDUM: EVALUATION – COMMERCIAL ITEMS

EVALUATION. The quote(s) will be evaluated on technical capability and price. The Government intends to make a single Firm Fixed Price order to satisfy this requirement. The Government reserves the right to award no contract at all, depending on the quality of offers submitted.

The Government intends to evaluate quotes and award a contract without discussions with vendors. Vendors should not expect requests for clarification or additional information from the Government. Award will be based on the initial evaluation of quotes received in response to the solicitation. Therefore, quoters are cautioned that their initial quotes should contain their best terms from a technical and price standpoint. However, the Government reserves the right to conduct discussions with vendors if later determined by the Contracting Officer to be necessary. The Government may reject any or all quotes if such action is in the public interest; and may waive informalities and minor irregularities in quotes received.

The Basis for award is PRICE AND OTHER FACTORS per FAR 13.106-1(a)(2).

All quotations or offers will be ranked in the order of lowest price to highest price and the below factors will be used.

The following factors shall be used to evaluate Quotes:

RATING DEFINITION

Acceptable Quote meets the requirements of the solicitation.

Unacceptable Quote does not meet the requirements of the solicitation.

The Government may use information such as DoD PPIRS, SPRS and FAPIIS data available from Government sources to evaluate a Quoter's past performance.

Factor 1 – Technical Capability

To ensure technical compliance the Quoter must clearly demonstrate that they can meet the solicitation requirements. The manufacturer’s name and manufacturer’s complete part numbers of all items quoted shall be submitted in the quote. A mere statement that the quoter will meet the Government’s requirement is NOT sufficient.

This is a requirement for Genealogy Services. Only quotes from small businesses will be accepted via GSA E-Buy.

Factor 2 – Pricing

The Government will evaluate Quoter’s quoted prices, but this factor will not be given an adjectival rating. Quotes will be evaluated on completeness, accuracy, and reasonableness. Evaluation of the quoted prices for the services will be based on a comparison of quoted prices received in response to the solicitation and may also be based on a comparison to the Independent Government Cost Estimate (IGCE) along with any other relevant price analysis techniques.

Reasonableness. For the price to be reasonable in its nature and amount, it should not exceed that which would be incurred by a prudent person in the conduct of a competitive business. Reasonableness takes into account the context of a given source selection, including current market conditions, general economic conditions, and other factors that affect the ability of a Quoter to perform the contract requirements. Normally, adequate price competition establishes a fair and reasonable price.

Completeness and Accuracy. The Government will review the pricing tables for completeness and accuracy. A determination will be made as to whether the Quoter properly completed the pricing tables. The Quoter’s quote will be checked for mathematical correctness to include the following:

1) Checking arithmetic in all computations; and

2) Ensuring all prices are summarized correctly.

Factor 3 – Past Performance

The Supplier Performance Risk System (SPRS), available at https://piee.eb.mil/, will be used in the evaluation of the Quoter or Offeror’s performance. The apparent successful, prospective contractor shall have at minimum, satisfactory past performance.

In accordance with FAR 13.106-2(b)(3)(ii) and DFARS Subpart 204.76, the Contracting Officer will consider the price, supplier an item risk assessment generated by the Supplier Performance Risk System (SPRS), if available, as part of the award decision.

PERFORMANCE WORK STATEMENT

Performance Work Statement

(Genealogical Support Services)

1.0 Background:

The Headquarters Marine Corps Casualty Section (MFPC), Military Personnel Services Branch, Manpower, and Reserve Affairs (M&RA) has a requirement to obtain non-personal professional services for a certified Genealogist. The requirement is for the technical expertise of the certified Genealogist to locate family members of Marines unaccounted for from past wars.

2.0 Scope/Objectives:

The Performance Work Statement (PWS) is for the non-personal services for a certified Genealogist for the procurement and delivery of fifty (50) cases. The Casualty Section is responsible for identifying relatives of Marines unaccounted for from past wars to donate a Family Reference Sample (FRS) for Deoxyribonucleic Acid (DNA) testing.

The Contractor shall be required to provide the labor, supplies, materials, and facilities to assist the Casualty Section in locating family members of over 2700 Marines previously unaccounted for from World War II, approximately 149 Marines unaccounted for from the Vietnam War and the Korean War, and to locate family members of Marines previously recovered and identified from the Vietnam War, the Korean War and the Cold War when additional remains are recovered and identified.

American service members from previous wars who did not return home alive or whose remains were not recovered are considered “unaccounted for.” After a specific period of time, if no new information was received to confirm that these individuals were alive, a Presumptive Finding of Death (PFOD) was issued by the appropriate Service Secretary declaring them deceased, even if remains were not recovered. The Marine Corps has over 3800 Marines that were lost in military operations in World War II, Korea, Vietnam, and the Cold War. Of the over 3800, the Marine Corps has been unable to locate family members of approximately 2849. The Marine Corps is often tasked with priority requests to locate living descendants of unaccounted for Marines from past conflicts when the Defense POW/MIA Accounting Agency (DPAA) believes they have recovered remains or have remains of unaccounted Marines in their Identification Laboratory. The skills of a professional certified genealogist are required to complete this mission.

3.0 Tasks and Specifications: The contractor shall be responsible for locating and providing contact information for the closest living family member. The objective of this requirement is to locate and provide contact information of the closest living family member, referred to as the “Primary Next of Kin” per Department of Defense Instruction 1300.18 (Personnel Casualty Matters, Policies and Procedures).

Additionally, provide contact information on living DNA eligible family members for approximately 2700 Marines unaccounted for from World War II and approximately 149 Marines unaccounted for from the Vietnam War, the Korean War and the Cold War, for the purpose of collecting Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA), paternal (Y-DNA), and autosomal / nuclear (auDNA - children of service member) for FRS comparisons, and to locate family members of Marines previously recovered and identified from the Vietnam War, the Korean War, the Cold War, and World War II when additional remains are recovered and identified, in accordance with the Performance Work Statement.

The expectation is that the contractor will establish direct contact with any relatives of the deceased Marines to fulfill the requirements of this contract. Below are specific steps for potential relative/DNA donor contact:

1. The contractor shall contact the potential relative/DNA donor via phone and email (if available) to confirm relationship to the decedent on each case.

2. If the potential relative /DNA donor is not responsive to the initial attempt to establish contact within 24-hours, the contractor will execute three (3) follow-up attempts at establishing contact, but not exceeding one attempt per 24-hour period.

3. If the potential relative/DNA donor does not respond within 72 hours of the last attempt, the contractor may move-on to the next potential relative/DNA donor found on the genealogy report.

If the contractor has any questions or requires guidance, the contractor shall contact the Government representative (Name will be provided at award).

4. The DPAA and the Armed Forces Medical Examiner have requested maternal relatives be located for (mtDNA) DNA analysis and paternal relatives be located for contact, Y chromosome (Y- STR) DNA analysis and Nuclear (Autosomal) (au-STR) DNA analysis.

5. The contractor shall spend no more than 24 hours per case. When it is determined that a case will require more than 24 hours to complete, due to adoption, foster care, etc., the Contractor must notify the Casualty Section representative for discussion and guidance.

Below, are specific tasks in specific order that will be required:

3.1 The contractor shall first identify the Marine’s closest living family member, referred to as the “Primary Next of Kin” per Department of Defense Instruction 1300.18 (Personnel Casualty Matters, Policies and Procedures). Then, proceed as follows:

3.2 The contractor shall identify , if feasible, at least two maternal (mtDNA) DNA eligible relatives of the Marine. Continue to Task 3.3.

3.3 The contractor shall identify, if feasible, at least two paternal (Y-DNA) DNA eligible relatives of the Marine. Continue to Task 3.4

3.4 The contactor shall identify, if feasible, at least two nuclear / autosomal (auDNA) DNA eligible relatives of the Marine (service-member’s children if applicable).

3.5 The contractor shall report all potential Next of Kin (NOK) found as a result of the genealogy search, including any whose relationship is not DNA eligible (e.g., relationship is that of a paternal niece). The contractor shall report the NOK’s contact information (to include name, address, phone number, email, etc.) to MFPC within 7-10 days of receipt of the request from MFPC, once Contractor obtains verbal authorization from NOK. Information attained from the contractor must result in a successful contact with a NOK 90% of the time.

3.6 Should attempts to find the Marine’s NOK be unsuccessful, the contractor shall inform MFPC. Based on information provided, MFPC will make a case status determination.

4.0 Government Furnished Information: The U.S. Government will provide the DODI 1300.18 manual and technical information as required for the implementation of this contract. The Contractor must comply with the requirements of DODI 1300.18 including compliance with section 552a of title 5, United States Code (U.S.C.), “The Privacy Act of 1974.”
