Section B - Supplies or Services and Prices

1. Contract Definition

This Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) Multiple Award Task Order Contract (MATOC) is for MTSS services. The IDIQ MATOC awarded will be for the same or similar knowledge based services (education and training functional domain) for the entire length of the contract (all option ordering periods included).

This IDIQ MATOC will fall under NAICS CODE 611519.

All task orders to be awarded under this IDIQ MATOC will be competed in accordance with (IAW) FAR 16.505(b)(1), Fair Opportunity, and DFARS 216.505-70, Ordering Under Multiple Award Contracts, unless one of the exceptions to fair opportunity at FAR 16.505(b)(2)(i) applies. IAW FAR 16.505(b)(1) and DFARS 216.505-70 task order selection will be tailored to specific project requirements and awarded IAW task order established evaluation criteria.

2. Eligibility The Government intends to make a contract award to each “Qualifying Offeror” who proposes. “Qualifying Offeror” is defined in 10 U.S.C. 2305(a)(3)(D). The statute defines a Qualifying Offeror as an Offeror that “(i) is determined to be a responsible source; (ii) submits a proposal that conforms to the requirements of the solicitation; and (iii) the contracting officer has no reason to believe would likely offer other than fair and reasonable pricing.” The Government will exclude any Offeror who fails to meet this definition as implemented in Section M below.

3. Total Amount of Contract The cumulative total ceiling value of all orders placed under the IDIQ MATOC will have a ceiling value of $245M. There is no limit to the number of task orders that may be executed against this IDIQ MATOC.

4. Guaranteed Contract Amount The minimum guarantee for the IDIQ MATOC is $500. The Government will issue Task Order 0001 for CLIN 0001 in the amount of $500 to attend a Post-Award Conference (PAC) within 10 days of MATOC award. This kickoff meeting is for award of the IDIQ MATOC only.

5. Period of Performance IDIQ MATOCs will have a basic ordering period of 48 months, with two (2) 36 month option ordering periods of performance.

6. Pricing No pricing shall be established at the IDIQ MATOC level pursuant to FAR 16.505(b)(1)(ii)(E).

The evaluation criteria for every task order competition will consider price pursuant to FAR 16.505(b)(1)(ii)(E).

7. Cost Type CLINs for Other Direct Costs and/or Materials

Prior to the purchase of individual items exceeding $3,000 on Cost Type CLINs for Other Direct Costs and/or Materials, the Contractor shall request approval from the COR. Splitting an individual requirement to circumvent the $3,000 approval threshold is not authorized. The Government will not reimburse the Contractor for costs incurred beyond the Cost CLIN funded value, for supplies not delivered or supplies delivered in excess of quantities ordered, or for exceeding authorized funding values on Cost CLINs. In addition, the Contractor’s invoices for Cost Type CLINs shall include receipts or other evidence substantiating actual costs incurred for authorized expenditures prior to acceptance by the Government.

Section G - Contract Administration Data

1. Formal DOD Source Selection Procedures Do Not Apply to Task Order Competitions Conducted under the IDIQ MATOC

The Government does not want to waste its industry partners’ bid and proposal dollars or Government resources. As a result, regardless of whether the Government uses a Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA), a Best Value Tradeoff approach, or a derivative thereof, the Government intends to streamline Task Order solicitations and conduct evaluations pursuant to FAR 16.505, i.e. they are expected to contain fewer proposal submission requirements, a reduced page limitation, and are not being conducted using the formal source selection procedures of FAR subpart 15.3 or DFARS subpart 215.3. However, each task order will delineate specific proposal instructions and evaluation criteria. The Government anticipates but is not required by the terms of this RFP, using adjectival ratings and definitions published in the then most current DoD Source Selection Procedures as of the time of task order RFP release.

Because the streamlined task order evaluations do not use the formal source selection procedures of FAR subpart 15.3 or DFARS subpart 215.3, procedures such as a competitive range determination, pre-award notifications to offerors excluded from a competitive range, pre-award debriefings, oral or written discussions with all offerors within a competitive range, and requesting final proposal revisions from all offerors included within a competitive range are not required for task order competitions under the IDIQ MATOC. The identification of deficiencies and weaknesses, the Government’s questions and comments, and the offerors’ answers and responses do not and will not constitute discussions, clarifications, communications, or exchanges as used in FAR subpart 15.3.

For a task order competition under FAR 16.505 the Government is required to afford all IDIQ MATOC awardees a fair opportunity to submit an offer and have that offer fairly considered. Accordingly, the Government will evaluate each IDIQ MATOC awardee’s proposal fairly, similarly, and in accordance with the request for task order proposal solicitation’s evaluation criteria. Pre-award debriefings and pre-award notifications of exclusion prior to award are not required under FAR subpart 16.5, and the IDIA MATOC awardees should not expect to receive them.

Once the Government has afforded all IDIQ MATOC awardees a fair opportunity to submit an offer and have that offer fairly considered for a task order competition, the Government’s selection official may engage in one or more of the following activities:

(1) Award a task order contract, even if the awardee’s evaluation identifies deficiencies or significant weaknesses;

(2) Exercise their discretion to identify specific areas of one or more offers (but not necessarily all offers) that need to be confirmed or revised, and award the task order based upon review of the confirmation(s) or revision(s);

(3) Obtain supporting price information for one or more offers (but not necessarily all offers) and award the task order;

(4) Engage one or more (but not necessarily all) offerors in one-on-one negotiations that lead to a task order award; or

(5) Not award to any offeror.

As required by FAR 16.505, the Task Order selection official will document his or her basis for award.

Where applicable, the Government will follow FAR 16.505(b) (6) for Post award Notices and Debriefing of Awardees and Unsuccessful offerors; provided, however, that if the FAR is amended during the period of performance of this contract, the Government may choose to take advantage of changes that reduce its administrative burden.

2. On-Ramp Procedures

The Government is committed to obtaining competition at the task order level (i.e., receiving more than one proposal) and will be closely monitoring the extent of competition throughout the entire ordering period. In the event that the mix of the MATOC awardees does not foster competition, the Government may implement one or more on-ramp processes to solicit, evaluate and award additional IDIQ MATOC contracts.

3. NMCARS 5237.102-90 Enterprise-wide Contractor Manpower Reporting Application (ECMRA)

The Contractor shall report Contractor labor hours (including subcontractor labor hours) required for performance of services provided under this contract for the Manpower and Reserve Affairs (M&RA) Information Technology (IT) Execution Roadmap via a secure data collection site. Contracted services excluded from reporting are based on Product Service Codes (PSCs). The excluded PSCs are:

1. W, Lease/Rental of Equipment;

1. X, Lease/Rental of Facilities;

1. Y, Construction of Structures and Facilities;

1. S, Utilities ONLY;

1. V, Freight and Shipping ONLY.

The Contractor is required to completely fill in all required data fields using the following web address https://doncmra.nmci.navy.mil.

Reporting inputs will be for the labor executed during the period of performance during each Government fiscal year (FY), which runs October 1 through September 30. While inputs may be reported any time during the FY, all data shall be reported no later than October 31 of each calendar year. Contractors may direct questions to the help desk, linked at https://doncmra.nmci.navy.mil

Class Deviation 2018-O0013—Micro-Purchase Threshold, Simplified Acquisition Threshold, and Special Emergency Procurement Authority. Effective April 13, 2018. This deviation remains in effect until it is incorporated into the FAR or DFARS, or otherwise rescinded.

(11) A description of the types of records that will be maintained concerning procedures that have been adopted to comply with the requirements and goals in/ the plan, including establishing source lists; and a description of the offeror’s efforts to locate small business, veteran-owned small business, service-disabled veteran-owned small business, HUBZone small business, small disadvantaged business, and women-owned small business concerns and award subcontracts to them. The records shall include at least the following (on a plant-wide or company-wide basis, unless otherwise indicated):

(i) Source lists (e.g., SAM), guides, and other data that identify small business, veteran-owned small business, service-disabled veteran-owned small business, HUBZone small business, small disadvantaged business, and women-owned small business concerns.

(ii) Organizations contacted in an attempt to locate sources that are small business, veteran-owned small business, service-disabled veteran-owned small business, HUBZone small business, small disadvantaged business, or women-owned small business concerns.

(iii) Records on each subcontract solicitation resulting in an award of more than $150,000, indicating –

(iii) Records on each subcontract solicitation resulting in an award of more than the simplified acquisition threshold, indicating --

(A) Whether small business concerns were solicited and if not, why not;

(B) Whether veteran-owned small business concerns were solicited and, if not, why not;

(C) Whether service-disabled veteran-owned small business concerns were solicited and, if not, why not;

(B) Monitoring performance to evaluate compliance with the program’s requirements.

(vi) On a contract-by-contract basis, records to support award data submitted by the offeror to the Government, including the name, address, and business size of each subcontractor. Contractors having commercial plans need not comply with this requirement.

(12) Assurances that the Offeror will make a good faith effort to acquire articles, equipment, supplies, services, or materials, or obtain the performance of construction work from the small business concerns that it used in preparing the bid or proposal, in the same or greater scope, amount, and quality used in preparing and submitting the bid or proposal. Responding to a request for a quote does not constitute use in preparing a bid or proposal. The Offeror used a small business concern in preparing the bid or proposal if--

(i) The Offeror identifies the small business concern as a subcontractor in the bid or proposal or associated small business subcontracting plan, to furnish certain supplies or perform a portion of the subcontract; or

(ii) The Offeror used the small business concern's pricing or cost information or technical expertise in preparing the bid or proposal, where there is written evidence of an intent or understanding that the small business concern will be awarded a subcontract for the related work if the Offeror is awarded the contract.

(13) Assurances that the Contractor will provide the Contracting Officer with a written explanation if the Contractor fails to acquire articles, equipment, supplies, services or materials or obtain the performance of construction work as described in (d)(12) of this clause. This written explanation must be submitted to the Contracting Officer within 30 days of contract completion.

(14) Assurances that the Contractor will not prohibit a subcontractor from discussing with the Contracting Officer any material matter pertaining to payment to or utilization of a subcontractor.

(15) Assurances that the offeror will pay its small business subcontractors on time and in accordance with the terms and conditions of the underlying subcontract and notify the contracting officer when the prime contractor makes either a reduced or an untimely payment to a small business subcontractor (see 52.242-5).

(e) In order to effectively implement this plan to the extent consistent with efficient contract performance, the Contractor shall perform the following functions:

(1) Assist small business, veteran-owned small business, service-disabled veteran-owned small business, HUBZone small business, small disadvantaged business, and women-owned small business concerns by arranging solicitations, time for the preparation of bids, quantities, specifications, and delivery schedules so as to facilitate the participation by such concerns. Where the Contractor’s lists of potential small business, veteran-owned small business, service-disabled veteran-owned small business, HUBZone small business, small disadvantaged business, and women-owned small business subcontractors are excessively long, reasonable effort shall be made to give all such small business concerns an opportunity to compete over a period of time.

(2) Provide adequate and timely consideration of the potentialities of small business, veteran-owned small business, service-disabled veteran-owned small business, HUBZone small business, small disadvantaged business, and women-owned small business concerns in all “make-or-buy” decisions.

(3) Counsel and discuss subcontracting opportunities with representatives of small business, veteran-owned small business, service-disabled veteran-owned small business, HUBZone small business, small disadvantaged business, and women-owned small business firms.

(4) Confirm that a subcontractor representing itself as a HUBZone small business concern is certified by SBA as a HUBZone small business concern in accordance with 52.219-8(d)(2).

(5) Provide notice to subcontractors concerning penalties and remedies for misrepresentations of business status as small, veteran-owned small business, HUBZone small, small disadvantaged or women-owned small business for the purpose of obtaining a subcontract that is to be included as part or all of a goal contained in the Contractor’s subcontracting plan.

(6) For all competitive subcontracts over the simplified acquisition threshold in which a small business concern received a small business preference, upon determination of the successful subcontract offeror, prior to award of the subcontract the Contractor must inform each unsuccessful small business subcontract offeror in writing of the name and location of the apparent successful offeror and if the successful subcontract offeror is a small business, veteran-owned small business, service-disabled veteran-owned small business, HUBZone small business, small disadvantaged business, or women-owned small business concern.

(7) Assign each subcontract the NAICS code and corresponding size standard that best describes the principal purpose of the subcontract.

(f) A master subcontracting plan on a plant or division-wide basis that contains all the elements required by paragraph (d) of this clause, except goals, may be incorporated by reference as a part of the subcontracting plan required of the Offeror by this clause; provided --

(1) The master subcontracting plan has been approved;

(2) The Offeror ensures that the master subcontracting plan is updated as necessary and provides copies of the approved master subcontracting plan, including evidence of its approval, to the Contracting Officer; and

(3) Goals and any deviations from the master subcontracting plan deemed necessary by the Contracting Officer to satisfy the requirements of this contract are set forth in the individual subcontracting plan.

(g) A commercial plan is the preferred type of subcontracting plan for contractors furnishing commercial items. The commercial plan shall relate to the offeror’s planned subcontracting generally, for both commercial and Government business, rather than solely to the Government contract. Once the Contractor’s commercial plan has been approved, the Government will not require another subcontracting plan from the same Contractor while the plan remains in effect, as long as the product or service being provided by the Contractor continues to meet the definition of a commercial item. A contractor with a commercial plan shall comply with the reporting requirements stated in paragraph (d)(10) of this clause by submitting one SSR in eSRS for all contracts covered by its commercial plan. This report shall be acknowledged or rejected in eSRS by the Contracting Officer who approved the plan. This report shall be submitted within 30 days after the end of the Government’s fiscal year.

(h) Prior compliance of the offeror with other such subcontracting plans under previous contracts will be considered by the Contracting Officer in determining the responsibility of the offeror for award of the contract.

(i) A contract may have no more than one subcontracting plan. When a modification exceeds the subcontracting plan threshold in 19.702(a), or an option is exercised, the goals of the existing subcontracting plan shall be amended to reflect any new subcontracting opportunities. When the goals in a subcontracting plan are amended, these goal changes do not apply retroactively.

(j) Subcontracting plans are not required from subcontractors when the prime contract contains the clause at 52.212-5, Contract Terms and Conditions Required to Implement Statutes or Executive Orders—Commercial Items, or when the subcontractor provides a commercial item subject to the clause at 52.244-6, Subcontracts for Commercial Items, under a prime contract.

(k) The failure of the Contractor or subcontractor to comply in good faith with (1) the clause of this contract entitled “Utilization Of Small Business Concerns,” or (2) an approved plan required by this clause, shall be a material breach of the contract and may be considered in any past performance evaluation of the Contractor.

(l) The Contractor shall submit ISRs and SSRs using the web-based eSRS at http://www.esrs.gov. Purchases from a corporation, company, or subdivision that is an affiliate of the Contractor or subcontractor are not included in these reports. Subcontract awards by affiliates shall be treated as subcontract awards by the Contractor. Subcontract award data reported by the Contractor and subcontractors shall be limited to awards made to their immediate next-tier subcontractors. Credit cannot be taken for awards made to lower tier subcontractors, unless the Contractor or subcontractor has been designated to receive a small business or small disadvantaged business credit from an ANC or Indian tribe. Only subcontracts involving performance in the United States or its outlying areas should be included in these reports with the exception of subcontracts under a contract awarded by the State Department or any other agency that has statutory or regulatory authority to require subcontracting plans for subcontracts performed outside the United States and its outlying areas.

(1) ISR. This report is not required for commercial plans. The report is required for each contract containing an individual subcontract plan.

(i) The report shall be submitted semi-annually during contract performance for the periods ending March 31 and September 30. A report is also required for each contract within 30 days of contract completion. Reports are due 30 days after the close of each reporting period, unless otherwise directed by the Contracting Officer. Reports are required when due, regardless of whether there has been any subcontracting activity since the inception of the contract or the previous reporting period. When the Contracting Officer rejects an ISR, the Contractor shall submit a corrected report within 30 days of receiving the notice of ISR rejection.

(ii)

(A) When a subcontracting plan contains separate goals for the basic contract and each option, as prescribed by FAR 19.704(c), the dollar goal inserted on this report shall be the sum of the base period through the current option; for example, for a report submitted after the second option is exercised, the dollar goal would be the sum of the goals for the basic contract, the first option, and the second option.

(B) If a subcontracting plan has been added to the contract pursuant to 19.702(a)(3) or 19.301-2(e), the Contractor’s achievements must be reported in the ISR on a cumulative basis from the date of incorporation of the subcontracting plan into the contract.

(iii) When a subcontracting plan includes indirect costs in the goals, these costs must be included in this report.

(iv) The authority to acknowledge receipt or reject the ISR resides—

(A) In the case of the prime Contractor, with the Contracting Officer; and

(B) In the case of a subcontract with a subcontracting plan, with the entity that awarded the subcontract.

(2) SSR.

(i) Reports submitted under individual contract plans.

(A) This report encompasses all subcontracting under prime contracts and subcontracts with an executive agency, regardless of the dollar value of the subcontracts. This report also includes indirect costs on a prorated basis when the indirect costs are excluded from the subcontracting goals.

(B) The report may be submitted on a corporate, company or subdivision (e.g. plant or division operating as a separate profit center) basis, unless otherwise directed by the agency.

(C) If the Contractor or a subcontractor is performing work for more than one executive agency, a separate report shall be submitted to each executive agency covering only that agency's contracts, provided at least one of that agency's contracts is over $700,000 (over $1.5 million for construction of a public facility) and contains a subcontracting plan. For DoD, a consolidated report shall be submitted for all contracts awarded by military departments/agencies and/or subcontracts awarded by DoD prime contractors.

(D) The report shall be submitted annually by October 30 for the twelve month period ending September 30. When a Contracting Officer rejects an SSR, the Contractor shall submit a revised report within 30 days of receiving the notice of SSR rejection.

(E) Subcontract awards that are related to work for more than one executive agency shall be appropriately allocated.

(F) The authority to acknowledge or reject SSRs in eSRS, including SSRs submitted by subcontractors with subcontracting plans, resides with the Government agency awarding the prime contracts unless stated otherwise in the contract.

(ii) Reports submitted under a commercial plan.

(A) The report shall include all subcontract awards under the commercial plan in effect during the Government's fiscal year and all indirect costs.

(B) The report shall be submitted annually, within thirty days after the end of the Government's fiscal year.

(C) If a Contractor has a commercial plan and is performing work for more than one executive agency, the Contractor shall specify the percentage of dollars attributable to each agency.
