The RFP does not include NAVSEA Clause 5252.245-

9102 GOVERNMENT FACILITIES ON A RENT FREE NON

INTERFERENCE BASIS (SEP 1990). If an offeror proposes to use a GOCO facility, would the

Government add this NAVSEA clause with an award?

RFP Section M 3.0, Subfactor 1.1?

The Navy has provided the evaluation factors for award in Section M of the solicitation.

0005.103

As part of Secion M 3.0, Subfactor 1.1, can the offeror show experience with the AN/SLQ‐32(V)6 technologies described with these individual technologies in multiple similarly complex systems?

Section M 3.0, Subfactor 1.1 states, "The offeror will be evaluated based on its demonstration of experience on RF programs similar in complexity to AN/SLQ-32(V)6.

The complexity evaluation will include evaluation of demonstrated experience with the following technologies used within AN/SLQ-32(V)6: [list omitted]." The Government will consider the Offerors' demonstrated experiences with multiple RF programs in its evaluation, provided each program is of similar complexity to the AN/SLQ-32(V)6.

Question Answer

0005.106

Given the Navy purchased two AN-SLQ32A(V)6 systems for two out of three DDG1000s, has the

Navy considered the Total Evaluated Price (TEP) overweighting of AN-SLQ32A(V)6 systems due to the TEP evaluating four systems versus the Navy's requirement of one? Is it the Navy's intent to purchase additional AN-SLQ32A(V)6 systems beyond the Navy's requirement for DDG1000s? If not, the current TEP methodology may result in disadvantageous pricing to the Navy.

Yes, the Navy has considered the structure of the

Total Evaluated Price (TEP).

It is the Navy’s intent to purchase all required AN-

SLQ32A(V)6 systems.
