3.0 PROPOSAL REQUIREMENTS

This section delineates general information and requirements to be followed in the preparation of the Offeror’s proposal. If an Offeror fails to comply with the content requirements, this will be considered during evaluation and will result in a lower evaluated rating or ineligibility for award.

An Offeror’s proposal shall be sufficiently detailed to enable Government evaluation board members to make a thorough evaluation, and to arrive at a sound determination as to whether or not the prospective Offeror will be able to perform in accordance with the stated requirements.

The Offeror’s proposal shall be specific, detailed and complete as to clearly demonstrate that the Offeror has a thorough comprehension of the total technical requirements, the Performance Work Statement (PWS), and all other requirements contained in the solicitation. Offerors should assume that the Government has no prior knowledge of their facilities and experience, and will base its evaluation on the information presented in the Offeror's proposals only. The Contractor should not presume that data previously submitted, or presumed to be known (e.g., data or services previously submitted or performed for the Government), will be considered as part of the proposal. The Government does not assume the duty to search for data to cure problems it finds in proposals. Failure to conform to all requirements of this solicitation may form the basis for rejection of the proposal.

General statements like “the Offeror understands the method for performing the engineering efforts (or any portion thereof) and can or will comply with the requirements of the solicitation” will be considered inadequate, as will generic statements such as "straight forward engineering techniques" and the "highest quality control procedures.”

The Offeror’s proposal must contain a precise description of all terms and conditions of the services offered and must address all topics described below. The information provided in the proposal shall appear in the same order as outlined herein.

This certificate requirement applies to both the prime and any subcontractors. The certification will not count against page count and be provided in Volume IV. Although legible, neat, orderly, and comprehensive proposal(s) are required, elaborate brochures or other presentations beyond that sufficient to present a complete and effective explanation are not desired. Elaborate artwork, expensive visual or other presentation aids are neither necessary nor desired.

The Proposal shall contain all the pertinent information in sufficient detail to permit evaluation. The proposal should be detailed and complete as to clearly demonstrate that the Offeror has a thorough comprehension of all technical and other requirements.
