QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

Provided below are the Government’s responses to industry’s questions in response to the solicitation:

Q1. Please confirm passenger seating is required for the two (2) SIGINT government operators referenced in the PWS Paragraph 3.4.2?

A1. Paragraph 3.4.2 of the PWS, has been modified to read “The aircraft must be able to accommodate one (1) sensor operator and three (3) SIGINT riders in addition to the two (2) pilots”.

Q2. There was no mention in Section 4 “Specific Tasks” about SIGINT activities, only functions related to supporting CAS, thus we didn’t fully understand the SIGINT capability requirement. Also, do you have a short description of the size/scope of the SIGINT equipment?

A2. Paragraph 4.1.4 provides the specific SIGINT required. Paragraph 3.4.2 specifies the SIGNIT equipment requirements, the aircraft must be wired (internal wiring, boxes, antennas, switches, etc.) for airborne SIGINT ops.

Section SF 1449 - CONTINUATION SHEET

ADDENDUM TO 52.212-2

(d) Basis for contract award - This acquisition is being conducted under FAR Part’s 12, Acquisition of Commercial Items, Subpart 12.6 and Part 13 of the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR). Quotes will be evaluated using the factors identified in FAR 52.212-2, Evaluation – Commercial items and this addendum. Noncompliance may be grounds to eliminate the proposal from consideration for contract award. Award will be made on the basis of Lowest Price Technically Acceptable Source Selection Process. By submission of its offer in accordance with the instructions provided in clause FAR 52.212-1, Instructions To Offerors, the offeror agrees to the terms of this solicitation.

Specifically, the evaluation process shall proceed as follows:

First, the quotes will be ranked in order from lowest to highest based on the price. The lowest priced quotation will then be evaluated and receive a rating of Acceptable or Unacceptable based on the criteria below. In order to be rated as Acceptable, the Technical quote must meet the Government's minimum requirements as described in the PWS. Quotes deemed Unacceptable are those that fail to meet the Government's minimum requirements.

Past performance will then be evaluated and assigned a rating of Acceptable or Unacceptable. In order to be rated as Acceptable, the past performance must present a reasonable expectation that the offeror will successfully perform the required effort, or the offeror’s performance record is unknown.

If the lowest placed offeror’s Technical quote and past performance are rated acceptable, the Government will then evaluate pricing to determine fair and reasonableness per FAR 13.106-3.

If the lowest priced quotation is evaluated to have an acceptable technical quote, acceptable past performance, and fair and reasonable prices, per FAR 13.106-3, the Government will complete a responsibility determination IAW the criteria specified in FAR 9.104-1. If found responsible, the Government may stop the evaluation process at this point as that quote represents the best value to the Government. Award shall be made to that offeror without further consideration of any other offers.

If the lowest priced quotation is assigned an unacceptable rating, or if the price is determined not fair and reasonable or if the quote is found to be non-responsible, the next lowest priced quote will be evaluated. This process will continue (in ascending order) until an offeror is evaluated to have an acceptable technical rating, fair and reasonable prices and the offeror is deemed responsible or until all offers have been evaluated.

The Government reserves the right to evaluate all quotes. The award will be made to the offeror whose proposal represents the best value to the government on a Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) basis, factoring in price and non-price factors – Technical Capability and Past Performance.

Factor 1: Technical Capability: Each offeror’s technical quotes shall be evaluated as Acceptable or Unacceptable as defined below:

Technical Rating Method Adjectival Rating Description Acceptable Quote meets the minimum requirements of the solicitation.

Unacceptable Quote does not meet the minimum requirements of the solicitation.

1. The offeror must provide a written technical approach which clearly describes how the offeror will achieve the objectives of the Performance Work Statement, to address specifically Section 4. Specific Tasks.

2. The offeror shall quote a fixed-wing aircraft, configured as an ISR platform with the capability of five

(5) hours on station time at an altitude of surface to 24,000’ as specified in paragraph 3.4. of the PWS.

3. In accordance with paragraph 3.3. of the PWS, Aircrew Qualifications, all pilots shall be current and qualified for the Mission, Design, and Series (MDS) of the aircraft and meet applicable Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) regulations. Current licencing and ratings for all pilots shall be submitted with the quote.

4. The offeror must submit the following in order to be deemed rated acceptable:

a. DD Form 2400 – Civil Aircraft Certificate of Insurance

b. DD Form 2401 – Civil Aircraft Landing Permit

c. DD Form 2402 – Civil Aircraft Hold Harmless Agreement

5. Offeror shall provide proof that all pilots and aircrew possess at a minimum a SECRET clearance at the time of soliciatation. Offeror shall complete and submit the provided draft DD Form 254, Department of Defense Contract Security Specification, with quote.

Factor 2: Price: The offeror’s price quote will be evaluated to determine price reasonableness using the methods listed in FAR 13.106-3. If further price analysis is needed, the methods outlined in 15.404-1(b)(2) will also be considered.

The Government will evaluate options for award purposes by adding the total price for all options to the total price for the base year requirement. The Government may determine that the offer is unacceptable if the option prices are significantly unbalanced. Evaluation of options shall not obligate the Government to exercise the option(s). The Government will evaluate the FAR 52.217-8 Option to Extend Services as part of the initial competition by adding half of the final year option price to the overall quoted price.

Factor 3: Past Performance: The government will conduct a performance risk assessment of the offeror’s (and proposed subcontractors) recorded past and current performance as it relates to the probability of successfully performing the requirements of the solicitation. The past performance evaluation will consider the offeror’s demonstrated relevant past performance, within three years, in providing services similar to this requirement.

Relevant is defined as providing ISR flight support services of the same or similar nature as specified in the PWS.

Each offeror’s past performance shall be evaluated as Acceptable or Unacceptable as defined below:

Past Performance Rating Method Adjectival Rating Description Acceptable Based on the offeror’s performance record, the

Government has a reasonable expectation that the offeror will successfully perform the required effort, or the offeror’s performance record is unknown.

Unacceptable Based on the offeror’s performance record, the Government does not havea reasonable expectation that the offeror will be able to perform the required effort.

Note: In the case of an offeror without a record of relevant past performance or for whom information on past performance is not available or so sparse that no meaningful past performance rating can be reasonably assigned, the offeror may not be evaluated favorably or unfavorably on past performance (see FAR 15.305 (a)(2)(iv)). Therefore, the offeror shall be determined to have unknown (or “neutral”) past performance. In the context of acceptability/unacceptability, a neutral rating shall be considered “acceptable.”

(e) The Government reserves the right to award no contract at all depending on the quality of the quotes submitted and availability of funds for the requirement. The Government intends to evaluate proposals and award a single contract without requesting or accepting revised proposals. Therefore, the offerors will be advised that their initial offer should contain the most favorable terms and reflect its best possible performance potential. The Government does reserve the right to clarify aspects of the proposals and hold discussions.

(End of provision)
