SECTION L - INSTRUCTIONS, CONDITIONS AND NOTICES TO BIDDERS

The following have been modified:

L-317 SUBMISSION OF PROPOSALS (COMPLEX) (JUL 1999)

L-317.1 INTRODUCTION

This Request for Proposal is for Build-to-Print Production procurement of Battle Force Tactical Network (BFTN) Systems, Variant I and Variant II.

L-317.2 OFFEROR QUESTIONS REGARDING SOLICITATION

Offerors may submit questions concerning, or request clarification of, any aspect of this RFP. Questions shall only be provided in writing via email to the following email address: heidi.radaford@navy.mil no later than than fifteen

(15) calendar days before the closing date of this RFP. The Government may make available to the general public any offeror questions and requests for clarifications and any Government responses to such questions and requests for clarifications; therefore, offerors are hereby instructed not to submit comments of a proprietary nature. Offerors are also advised that the Government may not respond to questions and requests for clarifications.

L-317.3 TIME & DATE FOR RECEIPT OF PROPOSALS

The deadline for the Government’s receipt of proposals is 10:00AM San Diego, California local time on 4 September 2018 . Submissions are subject to the late proposal provisions of FAR 52.215-1, “Instructions to Offerors-Competitive Acquisition”. All times are local time in San Diego, California.

L-317.4 REQUIREMENTS

L-317.4.1 The offeror shall print or type its name on the Schedule and each continuation sheet of the RFP thereof on which page an entry is made.

L-317.4.2 Proposals submitted in response to this RFP must contain comprehensive information on all pertinent aspects of the effort being offered to enable the Government to evaluate the offeror’s understanding of, and capability to accomplish, all the stated requirements covered in the Battle Force Tactical Network (BFTN) Specification (SPEC) and Statement of Work (SOW). Throughout the proposal, the offeror shall provide sufficient detail to substantiate the validity of all stated claims. Proposals shall be submitted in accordance with the instructions herein. Non-conformance with the RFP requirements may render the proposal unresponsive and removed from further consideration. An offeror’s proposal is presumed to represent their best efforts to respond to the solicitation. The proposal must demonstrate how the offeror proposes to comply with the requirements of the RFP. Clarity, completeness and conciseness are essential, and the overall quality of the proposal will be evaluated in the context of being representative of the offeror’s capabilities. Responses must adequately address all RFP requirements.

L-317.4.3 The proposal should only contain material that is directly related to the SPEC and SOW or is in response to the RFP. Statements such as “the offeror understands,” and “the offeror shall/can comply,” along with responses that paraphrase the RFP, are considered inadequate. Phrases such as “standard procedures will be employed” or “well known techniques will be used,” without a specific Government or industry reference, will be considered inadequate and unacceptable.

L-317.4.4 Unnecessarily elaborate presentations, elaborate artwork, expensive paper, and expensive visual aids are not desired and may be considered as an indication of the offeror’s lack of cost consciousness.

L-317.4.5 Validity of Proposals. Proposals submitted in response to this solicitation shall be valid for 210 days from the solicitation closing date.

L-317.4.6 The offeror is to identify its cognizant Defense Contract Audit Agency (DCAA) and Defense Contract Management Agency (DCMA) Offices in the Volume II Cost Proposal, providing the following for each cognizant office:

Point of Contact Name, Address, Telephone Number, Email Address, and FAX Number.

The offeror shall submit one (1) identical copy of the cost/price proposal to their DCAA Office, as further explained below.

L-317.8 MINIMUM REQUIREMENT PROPOSAL CONTENT

Each volume of the proposal shall be submitted in accordance with L-317.4 “Requirements”, L-317.5 “Proposal Organization”, and L-349 “Electronic Submission of Proposals” to permit a detailed evaluation. Proposals are to be neat, legible, and orderly. Content is more important than quantity.

Proposals shall correlate directly and sequentially with the following specific proposal preparation instructions.

Proposals shall be complete and self-sufficient, relate exactly to what is requested and proposed, and strictly adhere to the requirements of this solicitation. Use of documentation by reference, and not incorporated into the proposal, will not be allowed.

General Guidelines for Content

Each offeror shall submit a technical proposal to enable the Government to make a thorough evaluation and arrive at a sound determination as to whether or not the proposed approach/services will meet the requirements of the Government. To this end, each technical proposal shall be so specific, detailed, and complete as to clearly and fully demonstrate that the prospective contractor has a thorough knowledge and understanding of the requirements and has valid and practical solutions for any technical problems. Each proposal must be sufficiently adequate to demonstrate how it is proposed to comply with the requirements of the SPEC and SOW. The contractor’s proposal must include sufficient detail to allow the Government to adequately evaluate the contractor’s ability to accomplish the proposal requirements in accordance with Section M.

Wherever relevant, the offeror is encouraged to use cross-references to the applicable sections of the proposal rather than repeating that information in the several sections of this Volume. No cost/price information shall be included in this technical proposal. Proposals that do not present sufficient information to permit complete technical evaluation by the Government may be rejected.

Offerors shall prepare Volume I in two (2) separate Factors as follows:

Factor 1. Technical Approach Factor 2. Past Performance

Volume I – Technical Proposal

Factor 1 – Technical Approach

The Offeror shall provide a Test Report or Government Certification demonstrating compliance with the following standards on a product/system that correlates to the BFTN Specification (e.g., HF Modems correlate to MIL-STD 188-110D):

STANAG5066 Edition 3 STANAG4691 Edition 1

MIL-STD-188-110D

NSTISSAM TEMPEST/1-93

MIL-STD-167-1

MIL-STD-461G

MIL-STD-1686

MIL-DTL-901E

Test Reports demonstrating failures or noncompliance are not acceptable.

Factor 2 – Past Performance

Using the format provided with Attachment 9, Relevant Experience Form, offerors (prime and/or major subcontractors) are to provide relevant experience information on recent contracts performed by the offeror and/or its proposed major subcontractors for efforts similar and relevant to the requirements of this Request for Proposal. If no CPARs exist for the referenced past performance, the offeror shall submit Attachment 8, Past Performance Questionnaire/Survey to the Government person of contact (POC). The Government POC shall submit the completed Attachment 8 to the PCO via email. This data shall be submitted for (3) three of the most recent and relevant contracts. Major subcontractor is defined as a subcontractor’s cost is greater than 10% of prime contractor’s cost without fee and subcontractor’s cost. Recent is defined as a contract performed within the last five years.

For each relevant experience, the offeror shall list and provide contact information for the Contracting Officer and Program Manager. The offeror shall ensure that the contact information is current, accurate, and complete. The offeror shall define and describe how each reference relates to the production and testing of a system that provides Radio Frequency data over High Frequency and Ultra High Frequency in the maritime operational environment and experience in integrating components to build a system that will be installed onto a ship or submarine as well as any support services to resolve system issues.

If offeror does not have relevant Federal Government contracts experience, then provide data on state and local government or commercial contracts, in that order, to complete this report.

Offerors that have no record of past performance (e.g., new businesses) must submit a signed and dated statement to that effect.

The Government does not assume the duty to search for data to cure the problems it finds in the information provided by the offeror. The burden of providing thorough and complete past performance information remains with the offeror.

The Government reserves the right to use past performance information obtained from sources other than those identified by the offeror. The Government reserves the right to contact references for verification or additional information. This past performance information will be used for the evaluation of past performance.

The submitted Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS) or Past Performance Information Retrieval System (PPIRS) reports shall not count against the page limitations established for this proposal volume.

INTRODUCTION: This volume shall contain cost/price information only. The guidelines and requirements in this section are provided to (1) aid Offerors in preparing their cost volume, and (2) aid the Government in reviewing and evaluating those proposals as described in Section M. The Government’s intent is to provide instructions that will allow the Offerors to develop clear, concise and comprehensible proposals and to minimize data requests by the Government during the evaluation process.

ORGANIZATION: The cost/price proposal instructions outlined in this section shall be followed in developing the proposed costs and prices for all CLINs listed in Section B – Supplies/Services and Price/Cost of this RFP. Offerors shall complete Section B and provide it in this volume with an additional copy to be provided in the Contractual Document Volume III. Offerors shall complete Section B (including all of its associated tables) by proposing:

(a) FFP BFTN Variants I & II (CLINs 0001 and 0002). The Offeror shall insert individual unit prices for the quantities identified in the Pricing tables provided in Section B of the RFP;

(b) Engineering/Fielding Services (CLIN 0003). The Offeror shall provide an estimated cost and cost plus fixed fee calculated using the Government Not to Exceed amount for this CLIN. In addition, the offeror shall provide an estimate of the labor hours. No deviations will be accepted however, if an offeror reduces the NTE amount, the Government will adjust the proposal upwards to the NTE amount during proposal evaluation

(c) Ancillary Equipment & Spares (CLIN 0004). The Offeror shall provide a firm fixed price calculated using the Government Not to Exceed amount for this CLIN. No deviations will be accepted however, if an offeror reduces the NTE amount, the Government will adjust the proposal upwards to the NTE amount during proposal evaluation

The Offeror’s cost/price proposal shall be divided into two sections: (1) Price, and (2) Cost.

FFP BFTN Variants I & II (Applicable to CLIN 0001 & CLIN 0002): The contractor shall populate the tables below and provide the completed tables in the Price Section of the contractor’s Volume II Cost Proposal. The price in the table below shall match that which the contractor priced in Section B for the corresponding quantities. The current estimate is provided for the contractor’s information and the Government’s use in evaluating proposals.

However, the dollar ceiling for CLINs 0001 and 0002 will be based off the unit price below multiplied by the maximum quantity.

For evaluation of both BFTN system variants pricing, the Offeror shall provide a narrative description of its pricing approach for the quantities contained in Section B, including the estimating techniques used, learning curve assumptions, and quantity discounts.

The price for each BFTN variant system shall include all material costs, subcontract costs, other direct costs (to include license fees for use of commercial components, if applicable), direct and indirect engineering and manufacturing labor costs, inclusive of, but not limited to, systems engineering, program management, and configuration and data management activities, other indirect costs included in approved Forward Pricing Rate Agreements, and profit. The learning curve may also include escalation.

Cost Breakdown (Engineering/Fielding Services Applicable to CLIN 0003)

The cost breakdown shall indicate the Offeror’s total estimated proposed cost Not-To-Exceed $10,714,000 inclusive of direct and indirect charges, fee, etc. Any information submitted must support the costs proposed. Include sufficient detail or cross references to clearly establish the relationship of the information provided to the cost proposed. Support any information provided by explanations or supporting rationale, as needed, to permit the Contracting Officer and authorized representatives to evaluate the documentation.

The cost breakdown shall indicate the Offeror’s total proposed cost (broken down by labor hours, rates, and dollars;

material dollars, Other Direct Cost (ODC) dollars, and subcontract dollars) including applicable overheads, indirect rates and dollars, General and Administrative (G&A), Facilities Capital Cost of Monies (FCCM), and fee. Any information submitted must support the costs proposed. Include sufficient detail or cross references to clearly establish the relationship of the information provided to the cost proposed.

Each spreadsheet shall be formatted in Microsoft Excel 2007 and contain cells with working formulas and calculations. Each spreadsheet shall be structured so as to show separate totals per CLIN.

Substantiation. Substantiation is required for all costs included in the cost volume. The requirements outlined in this section shall apply equally to the prime and any expected major subcontractors. As mentioned before, general statements such as “estimates were derived from engineering analysis for judgment” are unacceptable. Statements that simply describe a historical program and the associated labor hours and material costs do not substantiate a cost estimate.

Direct Rates. The Offeror and major subcontractors (subcontractors that are greater than 10% of the total engineering services without fee) shall provide the most current rates, for each cost center, that are in effect at the time of proposal submission. This shall include the current FPRA direct labor rates, the projected direct labor rates assuming contract award, the current company labor categories, and the mix of company labor categories proposed for this contract. The Offeror and major subcontractors shall document the development of composite direct rates, which represent a combination of company labor categories, functional elements, or calendar year accounts. In addition, the Offeror and major subcontractors shall submit detailed definitions for each direct labor category. The Offeror and major subcontractors shall also include the basis for any projected annual increases and any other factors applied to direct rates.

Uncompensated Overtime and Professional Employees. Proposals that include hourly rates for exempt employees which are based on more than a 2,080 hour work-year shall be identified as Uncompensated Overtime as defined in the FAR 52.237-10 “Identification of Uncompensated Overtime” provision in this solicitation and evaluated in accordance with the “Uncompensated Overtime Evaluation” provision in Section M. Offerors are advised that the above plan will be used regardless of the methodology proposed or name given to the compensation plan (i.e., Total Time Accounting, Competitive Time Accounting, Compensated Overtime, or Standard Workweek). If an Offeror decides to include uncompensated effort in their proposal, the following requirements shall be met and reflected in the proposal:

(a) The Offeror must have an established cost accounting system, determined Adequate by Defense Cost Accounting Agency (DCAA) that records all hours worked, including uncompensated hours, for all employees, and regardless of contract type. Failure to meet this requirement may result in the proposal being removed from consideration for contract award.

(b) Uncompensated hours, for all employees and regardless of contract type, shall be included in the Offeror’s base for allocation of indirect costs and meet the requirements of Cost Accounting Standard (CAS) 418 “Allocation of Direct and Indirect Costs.”

(c) The proposed shall clearly identify hours of uncompensated effort proposed by labor category.

(d) The proposal shall clearly identify the amount of uncompensated effort that will be performed without supervision and without support personnel and shall assess the productivity of such effort. Additionally, clearly identify the means by which the Offeror controls or schedules uncompensated overtime for its employees as well as where the uncompensated effort will be accomplished.

(e) The proposal shall describe the extent to which employees are required or encouraged to perform uncompensated effort and the impact the use of uncompensated effort has on work effectiveness.

(f) The proposal shall include a copy on the corporate policy addressing the uncompensated effort.

(g) The proposal shall include a separate, complete, cost breakdown, to the same level of detail as the breakdown supporting the cost proposal. The breakdown shall include direct labor rates for all direct labor categories based on the division by 2,080 of exempt employees actual annual salary, to represent a standard (as deemed by Fair Labor Standards Act) 40-hour week or 2,080 hour standard year. In addition, the breakdown shall include overhead rates and other costs based on employees working a standard 40-hour workweek or a 2,080 hour standard year.

The requirements stated in paragraphs (a) through (g) above shall be met for each subcontract which has uncompensated effort included in the proposal.

Subcontractor Rates. The Offeror and each subcontractor shall provide the rates used in the proposed cost in accordance with the format described in this section. Due to the proprietary nature of company rates, this information may be presented separately for each Offeror and major subcontractor. A trace to the cost reimbursable CLINs shall be included to ensure the proper application of the rates.

Indirect Rates. The Offeror and major subcontractors shall submit the indirect rates used in the proposal. Sample indirect rate accounts are listed below.

Engineering Overhead Manufacturing Overhead General & Administrative (G&A) Material Handling Overhead Facilities Capital Cost of Money (FCCM)

The Offeror and subcontractors shall include a projection of indirect rates that assumes the award and inclusion of the BFTN contract in the business base. Any changes to the current Forward Pricing Rate Agreement (FPRA) indirect rates due to variation of the business base or other factors impacting the rates shall be fully described and justified.

Fee. Subcontractor fee will not be billed as a separate direct cost on any voucher submitted by the contractor to the Government, but will be paid to the subcontractor by the prime contractor from the fee billed from the fee pool.
