It states: "For each proposed indirect or G&A rate, provide a complete list of the contracts included in calculating the rate's estimated base. This list should include the expected expiration date and expected annual business volume for each contract on it through the end of the performance of the anticipated contract."

A complete list of contracts that forms an estimating base for a large Offeror can potentially exceed 10,000 contracts.

Methodology

If customer is not able to extend proposal submission date, is customer able to waive RFP requirements for submission of compliant subcontractor or vendor quotes (including the requested other than cost or pricing data of subcontractors/suppliers)?

We propose the customer allow us to use our prior cost history, quotes from similar current projects, ROMs, or internal estimates as needed if we are not able to obtain fully compliant supplier/subcontractor proposals in time to support the proposal schedule as adequate price competition per FAR will still support a fair and reasonable price/cost realism determination.

The requirement for supporting data to be included for subcontractors with cost or pricing data exceeding the $750,000 cost or the pricing data threshold defined in FAR 15.403-4 remains unchanged.

94 24 Section B - Notes F and K

The fee structure (Target Profit, Ceiling Prices) of the post-subsumption CLINs are inconsistent and can be interpreted as Long Lead Material cost not subject to profit.

Amend Note F post-subsumption methodologies to be consistent with Note K (CLINs 2002/2003).

Section B Note F and K have been updated via Amendment 0004 to Solicitation N00024-17-R- 5392.
