SECTION L - INSTRUCTIONS, CONDITIONS AND NOTICES TO BIDDERS

INSTRUCTION TO OFFERORS

PART A GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS

1. 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, and capability as required by the solicitation. Proposals must demonstrate that the Offeror has a thorough understanding of all requirements and associated risks and is able, willing, and competent to devote the resources necessary to meet all requirements. The Offeror shall not alter or rearrange the solicitation. Offerors are advised that the Government may incorporate into the final contract any part of the Offeror's proposal deemed beneficial to the Government with or without discussions. Price information (e.g., dollar values and/or hourly rates) shall appear only in Volume 4 (Price) and Volume 5 (Contract Administration). 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. It is the responsibility of the Offeror to present enough information to allow the Government to evaluate its proposal without discussions. The burden of proof for all substantiation within the proposal rests with the Offeror. Unsubstantiated statements that the prospective Offeror understands, can or will comply with the specifications, or paraphrasing the requirements or parts thereof are considered inadequate and may render a rating of unacceptable.

The Offeror shall include any data necessary to illustrate the adequacy of the various assumptions, approaches, and solutions to problems. There is no need to repeat information in more than one volume.

The detailed information must be included in the most logical place and summarized and referenced in other areas if an overlap exists. Do not provide elaborate brochures or other presentation material beyond that sufficient to present a complete and effective proposal.

Throughout these instructions, "Offeror" is defined as the prime contractor with its CAGE code identified in Block 15A on Standard Form (SF) 33, Solicitation, Offer, and Award. 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. The term "entity" is used to mean any or all of the following: prime contractor, JV, JV team members, any subcontractor, and corporate parent, division, subsidiary, or affiliate (e.g., any contractor with a different CAGE Code/ Unique Entity Identifier (UEI) than the Offeror).

The term "principal entities" is defined as: (a) the prime contractor; (b) JV Team Members; and (c) other entities that are proposed to perform at least 25% of the proposed total price for the contract.

2. PROPOSAL FORMAT AND SUBMISSION

Offerors shall format all proposals using a Times New Roman 12 point normal font (no reduction permitted), single-spaced. The Offeror shall number all pages with volume, paragraph, and page numbers. If the Offeror uses graphs to convey information, the graphs must show enough detail to understand the information described. The Offeror shall present graphs and tables in no smaller than a 10 point font.

2.1 Electronic Submission of Proposal

The Offeror shall submit all volumes of the proposal electronically through the Solicitation Module of the Procurement Integrated Enterprise Environment (PIEE) at https://piee.eb.mil. No other proposal submissions, such as mail, hand-carried, or other electronic system (e.g., DOD SAFE) are authorized. All proposal information shall be marked with “Source Selection Information – See FAR 2.101 and 3.104”. Instructions on how to post an offer using the PIEE system are available at https://pieetraining.eb.mil/wbt/sol/Posting_Offer.pdf.

It is the Offeror’s responsibility to follow the registration instructions found on the PIEE website. The Government advises prime Offerors and their subcontractors to register the proper company points of contact in PIEE based on their CAGE codes with the proper roles assigned well in advance of the solicitation closing date.

Subcontractors are only required to register in PIEE if they want to submit their proprietary proposal information separate from the prime Offeror. Documents submitted by the subcontractor directly to the Government must have the prime contractor’s name, CAGE, and RFP number on the first page of the document.

It is also the Offeror’s responsibility to confirm receipt of proposals and all electronic communications.

Offerors should take screen shots of the submission to validate acceptance of the submission in the PIEE system for this solicitation. The Government is not obligated to search for incorrectly submitted proposals in PIEE.

The submission date for all Volumes shall be no later than the date and time specified in Block 9 of the SF 33 of the solicitation. Offerors are responsible for submitting proposals, and any modifications or revisions, through the PIEE system by the date and time specified. While Offerors are encouraged to submit documents early, any submission, modification, or revision received through the PIEE system after the exact date and time specified is “late” and will not be evaluated or considered for award. The Government requests that Offerors submit early Past Performance information per paragraph 4.1.

2.1.1 Electronic Proposal Media

The Offeror shall submit all volumes of its proposal electronically and in a format compatible with the operating system and applications defined in Section 2.1.2 below. The Offeror shall ensure the portions of the proposal that contain pricing information are separate from the portions of the proposal that do not contain pricing information. For this solicitation Volume 4 (Price) and Volume 5 (Contract Administration) contain price information and shall be delivered separately from the remainder of the proposal. The Offeror is responsible for ensuring electronic proposals are virus free in accordance with Section 2.1.4.

2.1.2 Operating System and Applications

The Government uses Microsoft Windows 10 Operating System to access proposals. Offerors shall submit proposal information using the following applications: Microsoft Word 2016, Microsoft Excel 2016, and Microsoft PowerPoint 2016, and Portable Document Format (.pdf). Offerors shall submit letters and other signed documents as fully searchable Portable Document Format (.pdf) files. Use of other application software for submission of proposals is prohibited.

2.1.3 Hyperlinks

The Offeror shall not use hyperlinks in proposal volumes.

2.1.4 Virus Free Electronic Submission

The Offeror is responsible for ensuring that its electronic proposal is virus free. The Offeror shall certify, in its proposal cover letter, that all electronic proposal information delivered throughout the evaluation (e.g., original proposal submission, responses to evaluation notices, Final Proposal Revisions) are virus free. The Offeror shall specify the software, version, and virus definition used to check the data.

2.1.5 Multimedia

In order to reduce file sizes, the Offeror shall not embed sound or video (e.g., MPEG) files within the proposal submission. The Offeror is encouraged to simplify the color palette used in creating figures; and minimize size of graphics files; and avoid scanned images.

2.1.6 File Naming Conventions

Valid extensions for files using their associated applications are listed below in Table G-1 (file Extensions):

Table G-1 File Extensions Type of Application/Files Valid Extensions Portable Document Files .pdf Microsoft Word documents .docx Microsoft Excel documents .xlsx Microsoft Power Point .pptx

The Offeror shall follow the basic structure of the file naming convention in Table G-2 (Proposal Structure) for electronic file submissions (e.g., proposal volumes, attachments, appendices), where"#" represents the sequential numbering of files. Offeror's shall keep the file name as short as possible (i.e., under 40 characters) so that the files are accessible on Government share drives. Files with longer names may become corrupt or inaccessible.

The Offeror should provide one folder for each volume or annex, containing all electronic files requested within the volume or annex. Please submit each volume, book, or annex as one file if possible. Offerors should not provide each section/paragraph as separate files.

For contract references that contain delivery/task orders, additionally provide the work description for each specific delivery/task order. For contract references where the principal entity performed as a subcontractor, the Offeror shall also provide a complete copy of the agreement between the prime and subcontractor that clearly defines the portions of the work effort that the Offeror performed as a subcontractor, in order to facilitate the Government verification of the scope, magnitude and complexity of the contract references.

For each contract identified in Attachment L-4 Vol 3 PP-1 PP Con Data, Table PP-1 (Past Performance Contract Data), the Offeror shall provide contract data regarding relevancy, past performance information, and demonstrated systemic improvement, as described below, organized by contract reference. The Offeror shall demonstrate the relevancy of the principal entities past performance with respect to this solicitation's requirements. For any contract references where the principal entities are aware of problems, the Offeror shall describe the issues in section 3.2.2 (Past Performance Information). For each past performance problem identified, describe the status of the systemic improvement efforts in section 3.2.3 (Demonstrated Systemic Improvement).

Contract Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS) and Questionnaires will be the primary customer feedback data used to evaluate the Offeror's past performance. For all contracts identified that do not have a report in CPARS, the Offeror shall forward a copy of Attachment L-3 Vol 3 PPQ, Past Performance Questionnaire, to that contract's Procuring Contracting Office (PCO), Administrative Contracting Officer (ACO), and Program Manager (PM); or commercial contractor equivalents. Please forward all questionnaires within two weeks from this solicitation's release date to allow adequate time for the recipient to respond. Note that the Offeror should not reference this solicitation's number when distributing the past performance questionnaires to customers. The Offeror should include instructions for the customers to send completed questionnaires within two weeks of its receipt via e-mail to Contract Specialist Kathie Bartz at kathie.m.bartz.civ@us.navy.mil and Contract Specialist Gregory Webster at gregory.j.webster8.civ@us.navy.mil. The Offeror shall ensure that all points of contact are current and include an email address and phone number in Table PP-1 (Past Performance Contract Data). The Offeror shall not conduct follow-up actions with regard to this questionnaire, other than to confirm receipt by the recipient. The Government may contact customers identified by the Offeror to obtain past performance information as needed.

The Government reserves the right to obtain and use information from sources other than those identified by the Offeror to perform the past performance evaluation. The Government may send additional questionnaires and/or obtain information from sources identified by the Government evaluation team.

3.1 Authorization Letter(s)

The Offeror shall submit a signed "Release of Adverse Past Performance Authorization Letter(s)" with written consent from each principal entity, authorizing the Government to release adverse past performance information to the Prime. The signed letter(s) shall be included in a separate file within Volume 3 (Past Performance). The authorization letter allows the Government to coordinate past performance issue(s) with the Prime Offeror. For any principal entity that does not provide an authorization letter with such written consent, the Offeror shall provide point of contact information for each principal entity. This contact information shall include a name, address, phone number, and email address, with whom the Government may coordinate any issues and obtain responses as needed. The Offeror is advised that if it does not submit the Release of Adverse Past Performance Authorization Letters with written consent, then the Government will address any past performance issues directly with the principal entity, and the Offeror will forfeit the opportunity to participate in any related discussions with the Government.

3.2 Relevant Contract Data

For each contract identified in Table ES-2 (Relevant Contract Summary), the Offeror shall complete Attachment L-4 Vol 3 PP-1 PP Con Data, Table PP-1 (Past Performance Contract Data), according to the instructions within the attachment. Please note that this Table ES-2 (Relevant Contract Summary) is a summary of the principal entities' relevant contract data; all detailed information and comparative analysis of the past performance contract references to this solicitation's requirements shall be provided in Volume 3 (Past Performance) of the Offeror's proposal. The contract references identified in Table ES-2 (Relevant Contract Summary) shall be used in completing Volume 3 (Past Performance). All contract references shall be numbered the same throughout all of the Offeror's proposal volumes (i.e., the contracts identified as Pl, Sl, Tl, Cl etc.).

If a contract has delivery order/task order provide a separate contract reference and separate PP-1 tab for each delivery order/task order. The Offeror may use one reference number/PP- I tab for multiple delivery orders/task orders if they are the same work effort and performed under the same CPAR; however, the Offeror shall identify the dollar amount and period of performance for each order in Table PP-1. Do not provide a contract reference to the basic contract.

In general, more recent performance will be considered a better indicator of future performance. If the Offeror is proposing as a JV, the Offeror should provide the relevant contracts for the JV as a whole, and for each team member of the JV.

3.2.1 Relevancy

Offerors shall explain what aspects of the referenced contracts it considers relevant, as defined by Section M, to this solicitation's requirements. The Offeror shall provide a comparative analysis to demonstrate similarities of scope, magnitude, and complexity to this solicitation's requirements. Within the comparative analysis, Offerors shall identify the relevant portions (sections, paragraphs, and page numbers) of the referenced contract's CDS (Annex B) and clearly articulate how past efforts performed are similar to this solicitation's requirements. In addition, the referenced relevant portions only need to be identified; the full text does not need to be broken out separately from the complete CDS.

CAGE Code/UEI for each referenced contract will be considered as part of the Relevancy determination, which determines if the contract reference will be included in the Past Performance evaluation. Note:

Any information regarding CAGE Code/UEI should be included within Volume 1 (Executive Summary) and does not need to be repeated here.

Contracts assessed as not relevant by the Government will not be considered in the Past Performance assessments.

3.2.2 Past Performance Information

For each proposed relevant contract, the Offeror shall provide a brief description of past performance in delivering quality services. This description shall include information that demonstrates the level of performance provided. Where available; provide quantifiable measures/trends to demonstrate past and current performance. The Offeror shall describe any problems experienced during contract performance, including when the problem occurred, what the circumstances were surrounding the problem, and what the consequences were as a result of the problem.

The Offeror shall describe how the past performance information relates to the performance areas of:

3.2.2.1 technical (quality of product or services);

3.2.2.2 schedule/timeliness;

3.2.2.3 management or business relations;

3.2.3 Demonstrated Systemic Improvement

The Offeror shall identify systemic improvement actions taken to resolve any past problems identified in

3.2.2 (Past Performance Information). Provide the records of such actions and indicate where they are documented, preferably in Government record systems. Describe the techniques, elements, and tools the entity used to correct problems on the reference contract and, if applicable, how these techniques, elements, and tools may be used for the contract to be awarded as the result of this solicitation. Provide quantifiable evidence or metrics that substantiate or demonstrate claims of improvement and demonstrate that the past problem will not occur on the contract to be awarded as the result of this solicitation. It is incumbent upon the Offeror to explain the relevance of the data provided and substantiate that improvements from past performance problems have been made. The Government does not assume the duty to search for data to cure the problems identified in the past performance information provided by the Offeror. Consideration for discounting problems may be given when those problems are addressed through demonstrated systemic improvement. Demonstrated systemic improvement may be indicated by information as it relates to preventing recurrence of past problems, including: identification of the root cause of a problem, a corrective action plan that systemically addresses the past problem, how and when the plan was implemented, documented timeframe to demonstrate when corrective action was implemented and became successful; and performance data, preferably through Government records, to show performance improvements.

With regard to performance improvement data, explain the likelihood to which the problem will not reoccur during the performance of this prospective contract based on the amount of time that good performance was sustained in consideration of the nature of the past problem and effort.
