This document provides instructions for prospective offerors to obtain access to the Bidder’s Library to support development of a proposal in response to solicitation N00024-18-R-5200. The Bidder’s Library contains both unclassified documents and classified documents up to the SECRET level.

The unclassified documents will be posted to an online repository hosted on the Naval Systems Engineering Resource Center (NSERC). Classified documents will be distributed via DVD media.

Instructions for Accessing the Bidder’s Library

Access to the Bidder’s Library requires the following:

Completed DD Form 254 Completed Terms of Use Agreement (TOUA) Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) Certificate or Common Access Card (CAC) Active Naval Systems Engineering Resource Center (NSERC) Account (see Appendix A)

Note: The Government will not sponsor CACs for any prospective offeror. Prospective offerors that do not have a CAC will need to obtain a DoD-approved PKI Certificate through the External Certification Authority Program (http://iase.disa.mil/pki/eca/).

Prospective offerors that were previously granted access to the Bidder’s Library for this procurement need not re-submit the DD Form 254 or Terms of Use Agreement. However, these prospective offerors must still provide the email submission detailed in step 1.

Step by Step Instructions

1. Request a copy of the DD Form 254 via email to shawn.fu@navy.mil and gary.braunstein@navy.mil. In the body of the email, provide the names of up to two (2) representatives of the prospective offeror to be granted access rights to the Bidder’s Library on NSERC. For each individual, provide an email address and phone number, and indicate whether the individual uses CAC or PKI certificate credentials.
