About this file

This briefing document outlines the Navy's plans for the follow-on Emergency Ship Salvage Material contract to be awarded as a single-award Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity agreement for fiscal years 2018 through 2023. The incumbent contractor will be responsible for managing, maintaining, and operating eight strategically located ESSM warehouses in the United States and abroad, which stockpile emergency response equipment for diving, spill response, salvage, and underwater ship repair. Key dates include an industry day on June 22, 2017 to discuss the requirement, proposal submissions due in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2017, technical and cost evaluations occurring through the second quarter of fiscal year 2018, and contract award planned for the first quarter of fiscal year 2019. The Navy intends to award on a best value basis evaluating technical capability, past performance, and cost as factors, with technical capability being most important.

Technical (Non-Cost)

Technical Capability Subfactors

Personnel

Management Approach/Organization Plan

Experience

Oral Presentations

Past Performance

Cost

Evaluated cost to the Government is an offeror’s evaluated cost (including fee) for the base year and all option years.

This evaluated cost will be used in making an award recommendation

Evaluation Factors

Distribution Statement A: Approved for public release, distribution is unrestricted. 28

Technical Capability is more important than Past Performance

Within Technical Capability, the subfactors are in descending order of importance: Personnel, Management Approach/Organization Plan, Experience, and Oral Presentations

Past Performance is more important than Cost

Cost is the least important Evaluation Factor

Cost Proposal that is unrealistic, unreasonable or unbalanced may be rejected

*Total Evaluated Cost importance will increase as an Evaluation Factor as the Non-Cost Categories among competing proposals become equal.

Relative Order of Importance

• How well the proposal response meets the requirements of the solicitation

• Submit proposals that are complete, clear and consistent in all respects

• Should state brief statement of facts

• Inconsistencies are viewed as weaknesses

• Should stand on its own merits

• Do not assume evaluation team possesses any pre-existing knowledge about your company or its unique business practices

• Technical evaluation team instructed not to include any information or previous knowledge about your organization

• Technical evaluation strictly addresses the merits of each proposal as it relates to the evaluation criteria

Technical Proposal Evaluation

Distribution Statement A: Approved for public release, distribution is unrestricted. 30

Proposals should be organized in accordance with solicitation requirements

Be judicious in use of inter-document cross-references

Avoid multiple layers of references from one to section in the document to another

Cross-referenced matrices can be disorienting and don’t always present a clear picture of what the Offeror is attempting to demonstrate

Proofread the Proposal

Unnecessarily complicated, confusing or incomplete proposals makes the review process more time consuming

Ensure continuity between Technical and Cost Proposals

Technical Proposal Quality

Distribution Statement A: Approved for public release, distribution is unrestricted. 31

Cost realism analysis – FAR 15.305(a)(1)

Failure to provide the required cost information may render the proposal non-responsive

Ensure consistency between the Cost and Technical proposals

Cost proposal needs to represent the technical solution provided in the Offeror’s Technical proposal

Issues such as work allocation between the Offeror and teaming partners should align in the Cost and Technical proposals

Inconsistency between the Cost and Technical Volumes will result in an adjustment to the Offeror’s proposed cost

*Offerors are advised that the Government prefers to have indirect rates capped at ceiling/not-to-exceed amounts. The Government may consider an offer that does not include capped indirect rates to be higher in risk than an offer that does include capped indirect rates

Cost Proposals

Distribution Statement A: Approved for public release, distribution is unrestricted. 32

• Use templates and ensure all cost data spreadsheets strictly adhere to Section L requirements

• Free of mathematical and formula errors

• To the greatest extent possible, do not include hard entered data with no traceability to formulas

• Efficiency of the cost evaluation is directly related to cost spreadsheet quality

Cost Proposals: Section L Exhibits

Distribution Statement A: Approved for public release, distribution is unrestricted. 33

• Allocated across Government fiscal year in accordance with the schedule of maintenance actions

• Escalated based on indices provided in section L of the RFP, unless otherwise justified

• Supported by compelling evidence (Ideally FPRA, FPRR, historical actual rates, etc.)

• Describe how composite rates are developed

• Fixed price subcontractor quotes must be supported with compelling evidence of their ability to be binding during the execution of the work to be accepted.

• Auditable projected volume of business assumptions

Cost Proposals: Labor Rates

Distribution Statement A: Approved for public release, distribution is unrestricted. 34

• Although Cost is the least important of the factors, it still plays a key role in our decision making – especially when differences in Non-Cost factor become equal

• A “slightly” higher technically ranked proposal will not out weigh a significantly higher evaluated cost

• In the past, NAVSEA has unseated incumbents based upon competitive pricing

• In order to conduct an efficient source selection process, please ensure to provide any and all back-up data for ALL costs. The more supporting data you provide, the more likely the Government can award based on initial proposals. It will also make the cost analysis process FASTER, leading to an earlier decision!

Why is Cost Important?

Distribution Statement A: Approved for public release, distribution is unrestricted. 35

• NAVSEA will post this Industry Day presentation and questions on the FEDBIZOPPS website

• Industry is invited to provide the Navy comments, concerns or questions.

All inquiries shall be directed to Mercedes Thurston, Contracting Officer, and Darrell Deitenbeck Contract Specialist, at mercedes.burrell@navy.mil and darrell.deitenbeck@navy.mil, respectively.

• Questions will be treated as “Bidder’s Questions” and all answers will be made publicly available via FEDBIZOPPS website (www.fbo.gov)

• Questions should be titled “ESSM Questions from (Insert Company Name)”

• To ensure the Navy is able to adequately consider Industry’s feedback in the upcoming solicitations, it is requested they be submitted no later than 1400 EST on 29 June 2017.

Highlighted Questions

This concludes the end of the presentation.
