The following have been modified:

SECTION L

PART A GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS

GENERAL

Offerors are required to submit sufficient information concerning all evaluation factors to enable Government personnel to fully assess the capabilities of the Offeror to perform all requirements. The proposal must be sufficient in detail and scope to enable evaluation and provide the evaluators a clear understanding of the Offeror’s approach, expertise, experience and capability as required by the solicitation. All proposals must clearly and convincingly demonstrate that the Offeror has a thorough understanding of all requirements and associated risks; is able, willing, and competent to devote the resources necessary to meet all requirements; and has valid and practical solutions for all requirements and potential risk areas. The Offeror shall not alter or rearrange the solicitation. The burden of proof for all substantiation within the proposal rests with the Offeror. Offerors are advised that the Government may incorporate any part of the Offeror’s proposal deemed beneficial to the Government, into the final contract. With the exception of Volume 4 Price, no price should appear in any other volume. Alternate proposals are not acceptable.

In presenting material in the proposal, the Offeror is advised that quality of information is more important than quantity. Clarity, brevity, and logical organization should be emphasized during proposal preparation. The Offeror is responsible for presenting enough information to allow the Government to evaluate the proposed work effort, support, and approach, as well as the price proposal, without opening discussions. Statements that the prospective

Offeror understands, or can and/or will comply with, the specifications, and paraphrasing the requirements or parts thereof without supporting information are considered inadequate by the Government, and may result in a rating of unacceptable.

The Offeror shall include any data necessary to illustrate the adequacy of the various assumptions, approaches, and solutions to problems. Failure to address a specific factor or sub-factor clearly may be considered a deficiency.

There is no need to repeat information in more than one volume if overlap exists. The detailed information must be included in the most logical place and summarized and referenced in other areas if an overlap exists. Unnecessarily elaborate brochures or other presentation beyond that sufficient to present a complete and effective proposal is neither necessary nor desired.

The Offeror is expected to comply with all requirements of the Request for Proposal (RFP). The Government advises the Offeror that taking exception or deviating from any term or condition of the RFP may make an offer unacceptable, and the proposal unawardable, unless the RFP expressly authorizes such an exception or deviation with regard to that specific term or condition. The Government may consider any exception or deviation to any term or condition of the RFP that is not expressly authorized by the RFP to be a deficiency as defined in FAR 15.001.

Throughout these instructions, Offeror is defined as the prime contractor with its CAGE code identified in Block

15A on Standard Form (SF)-33Solicitation, Offer, and Award. “Principal Subcontractors” are defined as a subcontractor who provides at least 20% of the proposed total price for the contract. A “Joint Venture” (JV) is a partnership or teaming arrangement that is formed for the purpose of responding to this solicitation when the prime contractor consists of more than one legal entity. “JV Team Members” are the entities that make up a Joint Venture.

“Critical Subcontractors” are subcontractors that perform a critical function, whether technical or financial, and/or have important roles in any high or medium risk areas identified in the performance of the resulting contract. The term entity is used to mean any or all of the following: Prime, Principal Subcontractor, Critical Subcontractor, JV, and/or each JV team member or other subcontractor.

Questions: Offerors may submit questions requesting clarification of solicitation requirements by emailing Ms.

Magdalena Guerra, Mr. Rodney Flowers, and Mr. Adam Caudle, at magdalena.guerra@navy.mil, rodney.flowers@navy.mil, and adam.caudle@navy.mil.

PROPOSAL FORMAT AND SUBMISSION

Proposals must be formatted using a Times New Roman 12 point normal font (no reduction permitted), single-spaced with 1-inch margins all around, and formatted for/printed on standard 8.5 x 11 inch paper. All pages should be numbered with volume, paragraph, and page numbers. When fold-out pages are used, they must not exceed 11 x

17 inches and will be counted as 1 page. Drawings may be provided separately and may be any size but should be folded to approximately 8.5 x 11 inch standard size and will count as 1 page. Graphs and tables shall be presented in no smaller than a 10 pt. font. Graphs should contain a grid, which allows values to be read directly from the graph to the same detail that a 10 x 10 to the ½ inch grid provides. Graphic resolution should be consistent with the purpose of the data presented. Text utilized in charts, figures, and graphics shall also be no smaller than a 10pt font and may use a font type selected by the Offeror. Each volume, book, or annex shall be provided separately in a 3-ring binder. The binders should be of an appropriate thickness for the number of pages it contains (e.g., a 30-page book shall not be placed in a 2-inch binder).

In addition to the hard copies as explained above and requested below, the Offeror should submit all volumes of its proposal electronically on CD-ROM(s) compatible with the operating system and applications defined in Section

2.1.2 below. The Offeror should put as much proposal material as possible on each CD-ROM, keeping the portions of the proposal that contain pricing information on separate CD-ROM(s) from the portions of the proposal that do not contain pricing information. For this solicitation, Annex A, Small Business Subcontracting Plan and Table T-1, Small Business Utilization Strategy; Volume 4 Price; and Volume 5 Contract Administration contain price information and should be delivered on separate CD-ROM(s) from the remainder of the proposal. The Offeror mailto:magdalena.guerra@navy.mil mailto:rodney.flowers@navy.mil mailto:jonathan.groeschel@navy.mil should submit two sets of its proposal on CD-ROMs that contain its proposal. One set of CD-ROM disks should be marked "Master," the other should be marked "Back-Up." Both sets of CD-ROM disks should be clearly marked with the Offeror’s name and address, the point of contact's name and phone number, and proposal volumes contained therein. The Offeror is responsible for ensuring electronic proposals are virus free in accordance with

Section 2.1.4. If a discrepancy exists between the original paper copy of the proposal and the disk copy, the original paper copy shall take precedence.

The proposals will be accessed utilizing the Microsoft Windows 7 Operating System. The Offeror shall submit two identical proposals in separate, electronic versions: one version in Portable Document Format (.pdf) and one version in Microsoft Office 2010 Applications (Microsoft Word, Microsoft Excel, Microsoft PowerPoint, and Microsoft

Project). The .pdf document must be fully searchable. The Offeror is responsible for ensuring that the .pdf and the appropriate Microsoft Office 2010 applications versions contain identical information. The Government shall have the discretion to use the information in either version, and shall not be responsible for any differences in content between the two proposal formats submitted by the Offeror. Use of other application software for submission of proposals is prohibited except where specific instructions for non- PDF or Office 2010 applications are provided.

Offerors may use hyperlinks within and among proposal volumes that do not include price information. However, there shall be no links from any other volume into Volume 4 Price or any portion of the proposal that contains price information.

Offerors are responsible for ensuring that the electronic proposal is virus free. The Offeror shall certify, in its proposal cover letter, that all electronic proposal information has been checked for viruses, and specify the software, version, and virus definition used to check the data. With each subsequent submission of proposal information (e.g., responses to Evaluation Notices, Final Proposal Revisions, etc.), the Offeror shall ensure and certify that its files are virus free.

The Offeror should not embed sound or video (e.g., MPEG) files within the proposal submission.

Large files require greater computer system resources and are discouraged. The Offeror is encouraged to:

Simplify the color palette used in creating figures;

Minimize size of graphics files; and

Avoid scanned images.

There is no limit to the number of files that may be submitted. However, it is preferable that each volume, book, or annex not be broken up into multiple electronic files. Valid extensions for files using their associated applications follow:

Type of Application/Files Valid Extensions

Portable Document Files .pdf

Microsoft Word documents .docx

Microsoft Excel documents .xlsx

Microsoft Power Point .pptx

Microsoft Project .mpp

Files should have the following naming convention ("#" represents the sequential numbering of files and the suffix is for illustration, and may be .pdf, .docx, .xlsx, .pptx, or .mpp). For electronic file submissions (e.g. proposal volumes, annexes, appendices, enclosures) the Offeror should follow the basic structure of the file naming convention suggested in Table G-1 “Offeror Electronic File Naming Convention.” Offerors shall keep the file name as short as possible (under 40 characters) so that it is accessible on Government share drives. The Offeror shall ensure that the electronically submitted file names are directly traceable to hard copy submittals. In general, the

Offeror should provide each binder (e.g. volume, book, or annex) as one separate file (i.e. do not provide each section/paragraph as separate files).
