Offerors shall be required to demonstrate Technical and Management Capability both orally and in writing. This evaluation will involve an oral presentation as described in Paragraph (b)(3)(D) and a written submission as described in Paragraph (b)(3)(E) of this provision. The written submission will be incorporated into the contract.
(b) Format, Organization, and Content
(1) Format
(A) Each volume must contain sufficient information to permit a detailed evaluation. Data previously submitted, if any, will not be used in the evaluation of your response to this Request for Proposal. Previously submitted data shall not therefore be included in your proposal “by reference.”
(B) All pages shall be prepared using Times New Roman 12-point font, with the exception of tables, charts, graphs, and spreadsheets which shall be prepared using no smaller than Times New Roman 9-point font.
Additionally, all pages shall be prepared using single spacing, single-sided, 8 ½” x11”sized paper. For charts only, fold-outs using 11” X 17” sized paper are allowed and shall be counted as one page. Offerors should assume the
Government evaluators will be reviewing all submittals in a black and white format; therefore, offerors are responsible for ensuring the legibility of all tables, charts, etc., when printed/copied using black and white printers/copiers.
(C) No cost or pricing information shall be included in the technical proposal. Offers which do not present sufficient information to permit complete technical evaluation by the Government may be rejected. If proposal submissions contain assumptions and exceptions, the Government reserves the right to reject the proposal at its discretion.
(D) Proprietary data contained in the proposal shall be specifically identified.
(2) Organization
(A) The proposal shall be organized into the volumes, sections, and page limitations specified in L-
317(b)(3)(A).
(B) Pages shall be numbered consecutively within each section, showing volume, section, and page.
As an example, page 19 of Section B of Volume I would be numbered I-B-19.
(3) Content
(A) VOLUME I, WRITTEN CAPABILITY INFORMATION
(i) Section A, Relevant Organizational Experience: A maximum of thirty (30) pages are allowed for this section, however, the number of total pages allowed are determined by the number of Reference
Information Sheets submitted by the offeror. Offerors shall complete a separate Reference Information Sheet (RFP attachment 7) for each referenced contract identifying organizational experience similar to the requirements delineated in the SOW for the key areas of the SOW listed below. Where the contract reference is for a single, stand-alone task order(s) under an IDIQ contract offerors shall identify the task order in Attachment 7 and
Attachment 12. Where the contract reference is for an IDIQ contract, offerors shall identify the IDIQ contract as one reference in Attachment 7 and Attachment 12. However, offerors shall identify only the experience for the value of the task order(s) under an IDIQ contract that are relevant to this procurement based on the key SOW areas listed below. Offerors shall only claim the value of an entire IDIQ contract if all of the task orders issued under the
IDIQ contract are relevant to this procurement based on the key SOW areas listed below. Offerors claiming multiple task orders under an IDIQ contract shall also provide a separate sheet(s) (which will not count toward the page limitation) identifying the task order numbers and values for each relevant task order. In accordance with the instructions provided in Block 15 of the Reference Information Sheet (Attachment 7), additional pages (one side of a printed page is one page) may be submitted as follows:
A maximum of two (2) additional pages to address shore installation experience.
No more than ten (10) total Reference Information Sheets may be submitted per proposal. Including additional pages, a total of thirty (30) pages may be submitted. The same contract may be used to address more than one key area of the SOW; however, offerors shall not provide a consolidated response for multiple key areas of the SOW and shall clearly format their proposal to separate the discussion for each key area of the SOW identified below. In evaluating the capability of each offeror for each key area of the SOW, the Government will consider only the text designated in that section for that particular key area of the SOW. Offerors shall address each of the key areas of the
SOW. The key areas of the SOW are listed below in descending order based on the anticipated amount of work to be performed under the prospective contract:
KEY AREAS OF THE SOW
(A) Experience in SOW Para 3.4 *
(B) Experience in SOW Para 3.3 *
(C) Experience in SOW Para 3.5 *
*SOW Paragraph reference is inclusive of all subparagraphs.
Offerors shall complete RFP Attachment 12 “Gate Review Matrix” to summarize the cumulative value of all referenced contracts/task orders. Only one Matrix shall be completed per offeror. The matrix shall not exceed one page, and the number of referenced contracts/task orders shall not exceed the maximum of ten (10) references allowed per proposal. The matrix will not count against the page limitation for this volume. No additional information shall be included in the Gate Review Matrix. Any edits of the document will not be evaluated.
Each prime contractor shall also submit a copy of the teaming agreement(s) with each proposed subcontractor (large and small) claimed for this minimum gate requirement. The teaming agreement, at a minimum, shall include the signatures of both parties, the subcontract amount, the type of contract, and the period of performance. The teaming agreement(s) will not count against the page limitations for this volume.
If work other than shore C4ISR installation or other like shore electronic systems installation was also accomplished under the referenced contract, offerors shall not include the “other than” installation work in the dollar totals or claim it as relevant experience. The Government will validate the claims of installation work where determined to be necessary.
(ii) Section B, Organizational Past Performance: Past performance information shall be submitted in accordance with Provision L-325. The Government will evaluate the RFP Attachment 7, Reference
Information Sheet/past performance data for work performed after January 30, 2012, provided by offerors, and obtained from other sources against the criteria listed in Section M.
(iii) Section C, Extent of Participation of Small Business: All Prime offerors (Large AND
Small businesses) shall submit a completed RFP Attachment 8, Small Business Participation Data. Offerors will be evaluated on the extent of participation of small businesses in terms of the total acquisition value of this contract.
(See Provision M-307 for the minimum required ratio of Direct Labor to ODCs as it relates to the Minimum Gate criteria.) Small business primes are to include their own planned effort. In addition to RFP Attachment 8, each prime contractor (whether a small or large business) shall submit the cover sheet from each letter of commitment with each proposed small business subcontractor. The cover sheet(s) shall be signed by both parties, and shall provide the subcontract amount, and the amount of the subcontract allocated to Direct Labor and ODCs. Each letter of commitment shall detail the teaming agreement between the prime contractor and each proposed small business subcontractor, but only the signed cover sheet is required. The small business subcontracting plan, which is only required from large businesses, is a separate requirement and is in addition to the information required to evaluate this factor.
(B) VOLUME II, COST RELATED INFORMATION
(i) Section A, Ceiling Distribution Proposal: Offerors shall submit a completed RFP
Attachment 6, Ceiling Distribution Proposal. Attachment 6 shall be used by the offeror to annotate the distribution of ceiling amongst the prime and all subcontractors.
(ii) Section B, Accounting Systems Information: In order to be issued a cost-reimbursement contract, as required by FAR 16.301-3, contractors must have an accounting system adequate for determining costs applicable to the contract. Offerors are required to provide the report(s) for the prime and any subcontractors that will utilize CPFF, FPIF, CPIF, or Cost-reimbursement pricing showing the Government’s determination of the offeror’s accounting system adequacy. For subcontractors that prefer to submit accounting system information directly to the Government (rather than to the prime), information may be submitted to Sharla van Bramer at sharla.vanbramer@navy.mil by the closing date and time specified in block 9 of page 1 of this solicitation. If unavailable, other information pertinent to accounting system adequacy may be submitted. All subcontractors with an accounting system that has not been deemed adequate by the Government shall be proposed as a FFP proposal.
Any prime and/or subcontractors that will utilize CPFF, FPIF, CPIF, or Cost-reimbursement pricing, where the accounting system has not been deemed adequate by the Government for accumulating cost type contracts, may be considered only in the event the Government determines that discussions are in the Government's best interest and only for those offerors determined to be in the competitive range. At such time, should discussions be required, offerors will be afforded the opportunity to comply with existing instructions or be eliminated from further consideration.
(C) VOLUME III, OFFEROR INFORMATION
(i) This volume provides for all other miscellaneous contractual items delineated above in this provision under L-317(a)(3). Offers must communicate the offeror’s unconditional agreement to the terms and conditions in this RFP, including any attachments and documents incorporated by reference. The Government’s acceptance of an offer creates a binding contract between the Government and the offeror. Failure or refusal to assent to any of the terms and conditions of this RFP, the imposition of additional conditions, or any material omission may constitute a deficiency which may render an offer unacceptable, and which may only be corrected through discussions (see FAR 15.306(d)). The Government intends to award a contract without discussions as mailto:sharla.vanbramer@navy.mil permitted by FAR 15.306(a) and 52.215-1. Therefore, offerors are advised against submitting an offer which takes exception to any term or condition of this RFP or imposes any additional condition or omits any required information, without first consulting the Contracting Officer. The Government reserves the right to conduct discussions and to permit offerors to revise their proposals if it is in the Government’s interests to do so.
(ii) Organization Conflict of Interest (OCI) Disclosure: Any contract resulting from this solicitation will provide for a full spectrum of C4ISR installation services for all Shore C4ISR and supporting systems, current and future, under the cognizance of SPAWAR as provided in the Statement of Work (Attachment
3). Performing this effort may result in a potential Organizational Conflict of Interest (OCI) as defined by FAR
2.101 and FAR 9.5. The term "contractor" means the contractor, its subsidiaries and affiliates, joint ventures involving the contractor, any entity with which the contractor may hereafter merge or affiliate, and any other successor of the contractor. Contactor support services for the Global Installation Contract (GIC) are provided under various SPAWAR task orders and contracts. “Support Services” are services provided to support and assist a program office or staff code with their acquisition responsibilities, including but not limited to, program management support services, preparing program budget submissions, business financial reporting or accounting services, data collection and reporting, general administration, performance and earned value monitoring; or advisory and assistance services including but not limited to consultant services, requirements analysis and planning, contract management, systems engineering and technical direction, logistics management, information technology management, test and evaluation, production and installation management. Companies providing contractor support services are involved in the development of or have access to information concerning installation requirements and related documentation for GIC, including procurement or other contractor sensitive information which could create an OCI or perceived OCI that cannot be mitigated. Due to the potential for OCIs created, companies providing related installation support services will not be permitted to participate as a team member on the GIC. Such participation could result in the exclusion of the company’s proposal, or the proposal of their prime contractor teammate, from task order competition.
The Contracting Officer has the sole authority to determine whether an organizational conflict of interest exists and whether it can be avoided or mitigated. It is the Government's policy to avoid, neutralize, or mitigate potential conflicts as early in the acquisition process as possible. All OCIs must be resolved (avoided, neutralized or mitigated) prior to award.
(a) ALL OFFERORS SHALL SUBMIT THE FOLLOWING, REGARDLESS OF
POTENTIAL OCI DETERMINATION: Offerors shall identify and describe any contractual support they or any affiliate, joint venture or subcontractor under this solicitation are presently providing to PEO C41, SPAWAR, SPAWAR Systems Center (SSC) Atlantic, SSC Pacific, or any other activity, where that support relates to C4I installation support services. The offeror shall include: (1) the name of the contractor, joint venture, affiliate, or subcontractor; (2) the contracting agency; (3) contract number; (4) a short description of the work; and (5) whether the offeror believes that the support results in an OCI. Offerors shall specifically address why they believes no OCI exists (if applicable).
(b) Offerors shall provide an OCI Disclosure Analysis to address the following, as applicable: (1) Whether by virtue of the contracts listed in response to section (a), the contractor has had access to non-public information that may provide an unfair advantage in competing for some or all of the proposed effort; or whether by virtue of the contracts listed in response to section (a), the contractor was in a position to set the ground rules for this solicitation, and thereby affect the competition.
(c) Whether by virtue of the contracts listed in response to section (a), the contractor will be in a situation of evaluating its own services if awarded a contract resulting from this solicitation. Offeror shall specifically address the situation where impaired objectivity arises because of the relationship between work previously awarded to the contract and work arising under this solicitation.
(d) How the contractor will identify and avoid actual or potential OCIs during performance.
(D) TECHNICAL AND MANAGEMENT CAPABILITY, ORAL PRESENTATION
(i) Schedule and Location for presentations. Oral presentations will be scheduled with offerors as soon as possible after the closing date for receipt of proposals.
