SUMMARY OF CHANGES

SECTION L - INSTRUCTIONS, CONDITIONS AND NOTICES TO BIDDERS

The following have been added by full text:

L-209-H009 NOTIFICATION OF POTENTIAL ORGANIZATIONAL OR PERSONAL CONFLICT(S) OF

INTEREST (NAVSEA) (APR 2022)

(a) Offerors are reminded that certain existing contractual arrangements may preclude, restrict or limit participation, in whole or in part, either as a subcontractor or as a prime contractor under this competitive procurement. Of primary concern are those contractual arrangements in which the Offeror provides support to PMS 300, or related laboratories (if applicable), in support of operation of the office or any of its programs. General guidance may be found in FAR 9.505; however, this guidance is not all-inclusive. The Offeror's attention is directed to the "Organizational Conflict of Interest" (OCI) or similar requirement which may be contained in current or completed contract(s) which prohibits the prime or subcontractor from providing certain supplies or services to the Government as described above during the period of the current "support" contract(s) or for a period after completion of the "support" contract(s). Notwithstanding the existence or non-existence of an OCI or similar requirement in current or completed contract(s), the Offeror shall comply with FAR subpart 9.5 and identify whether an OCI exists and not rely solely on the presence of an OCI or similar requirement.

(b) Offerors also are reminded that certain potential conflicts of interest may arise where an Offeror has unequal access to nonpublic information about a competitor that may provide the Offeror with an unfair competitive advantage and preclude, restrict or limit participation, in whole or in part, either of the individual, subcontractor or prime contractor under this competitive procurement. For example, a potential conflict may arise if former Department of Navy employee(s), subcontractors, or teaming partners of the Offeror may have gained access to nonpublic information about a competitor through participation in previous or ongoing performance or during the solicitation development/source selection process associated with this competitive procurement, and then participates in the formation of the Offeror’s proposal. Other potential conflicts of interest may arise where either the former Department of Navy employee(s), subcontractors, or teaming partners of the Offeror under this competitive procurement set the ground rules for competition; for example, by drafting specifications or assisting in the drafting of the statement of work. General guidance may be found in FAR 3.101 and 9.505; however, this guidance is not all-inclusive.

(c) If an Offeror identifies a potential conflict of interest that exists at any tier, that Offeror is requested to notify the Contracting Officer within 14 days of the date of this solicitation. The Offeror shall provide: (1) the contract or previous source selection’s solicitation number and name and phone number of the Contracting Officer for the contract which gives rise to a potential conflict of interest; (2) a copy of the requirement; (3) the statement of work and technical instruction from the existing contract, as applicable; (4) a brief description of the type of work to be performed by each subcontractor under the competitive procurement; (5) a brief description of the individual’s, subcontractor’s, or teaming partner’s unequal access to nonpublic information about a competitor, which may lead to a conflict of interest in the formation of the Offeror’s proposal, or establishment of ground rules for this competitive procurement, as applicable; (6) an OCI mitigation plan, as applicable; and (7) any additional information the Contracting Officer should consider in making a determination of whether a conflict of interest exists. The Government may independently verify the information received from the Offeror. The requirement to identify potential conflicts of interest as outlined herein continues until contract award. Notwithstanding the above, the Government reserves the right to determine whether a conflict of interest exists based on any information received from any source.

(d) The Government will notify an Offeror of any conflict of interest within 14 days of receipt of all required information. Those Offerors deemed to have a conflict of interest may be ineligible for award. Failure to provide the information in a timely manner does not waive the Government's rights to make a conflict of interest determination. The Offeror is notified that if it expends time and money on proposal preparation, such expenditure is at its own risk regardless of whether the Government determines a personal or organizational conflict of interest does or does not exist.

(e) Any potential prime contractor which proposes an individual, subcontractor, or teaming partner later determined to have a conflict of interest and deemed ineligible to participate in the current competition, may not be granted the opportunity to revise its proposal to remove the ineligible individual, subcontractor or teaming partner. The Government reserves the right to determine which Offerors remain in the competitive range through the normal source selection process.

(f) If the Offeror determines that a potential organizational and/or personal conflict of interest does not exist at any tier, the Offeror shall include a statement to that effect in its response to this solicitation.

SECTION M - EVALUATION FACTORS FOR AWARD

The following have been modified:

EVALUATION FACTORS

PART 1 – GENERAL INFORMATION

PART 2 – EVALUATION CRITERIA

M-1. PART 1 – GENERAL INFORMATION

(a) This section contains the evaluation factors for award. Pursuant to FAR 52.216-1, the Government intends to award an IDIQ contract with Firm-Fixed Priced Delivery Orders to the responsible Offeror whose proposals provide the Best Value to the Government; considering price and non-price factors below. Accordingly, award may be made to other than the lowest priced Offerors or to other than the best technical proposal.

(b) The contract will have five (5) ordering periods with a guaranteed minimum of 2 boats.

(c) Proposals will be evaluated to determine compliance with all requirements of the solicitation, including any attachments and exhibits. Proposals will also be evaluated for unique and innovative methods, processes, and/or solutions that are beneficial to the Government. The evaluation criteria will be applied in an identical manner. Each response will be evaluated strictly in accordance with its content and the Government will not assume that performance will include areas not specified in the Offeror’s proposal.

(d) The Government intends to evaluate proposals and award contracts without discussions with Offerors.

Therefore, each initial offer should contain the Offeror’s best terms from a technical and price standpoint. The Government, however, reserves the right to conduct discussions and request proposal revisions, if necessary. If a competitive range is established, the Government may limit the number of proposals to the greatest number that will permit an efficient competition among the most highly rated proposals.

(e) Offerors must propose prices for all supplies/services and quantities under each line (CLIN) listed on Attachment 8. The Government may reject as unacceptable any offer for less than the specified quantities for any item.

(f) The proposal must demonstrate to the Government that the Offeror will satisfy each Factor’s requirement.

Proposal information provided for one Factor may be used to assess other Factors if the Government deems it appropriate. Strengths and weaknesses of the Offeror’s proposal, as well as performance risks, will be assessed in determining which proposal is most advantageous to the Government.

(g) The Government reserves the right to waive informalities and minor irregularities in proposals received.

(h) The Government may reject any or all proposals if such action is in the Government’s best interest. The Government reserves the right to award one or more, or no contract, depending on the quality of the quotes received and the availability of funds.

(i) Offerors are advised that technical proposals may be evaluated without consideration of any proposed subcontractor which is deemed to have an organizational or personal conflict of interest.
