The purpose of the instructions contained in this provision is to provide for uniform submission of all offerors' proposals. Uniformity is expected to facilitate Government efficiency and accuracy in the technical and price evaluation and source selection process.

The contents of the offeror's proposal shall be organized to conform to the requirements specified herein.

The proposal material submitted by offerors shall define the offeror's technical approach that would satisfy the requirements of the Performance Specifications, the Statement of Work (SOW), and solicitation requirements.

Offerors' technical and price proposal shall be prepared in accordance with the requirements of this provision.

Clarity and conciseness of the material presented may have a bearing upon proposal evaluation. While only relevant material should be included, the material must be complete. Any offeror's experience, capability, knowledge and understanding not specifically described in the submitted proposal will not be assumed to exist by the Government during evaluation.

The technical proposal and the cost/price proposal shall be submitted in separate volumes. The technical proposal shall not contain any cost/pricing information.

Full, accurate and complete information shall be set forth in the submissions to facilitate a thorough and timely evaluation by the Government. This will be an acquisition effort utilizing a best value approach. The Offeror(s) product samples and proposals will be evaluated to ensure that their system complies with the criteria listed in the solicitation.

Offerors are cautioned that the Government reserves the right to make award based on initial offers without discussions with offerors. Therefore, it is imperative that the information provided in the offeror's response to the solicitation be complete and accurate and that the prices proposed be the offeror’s best terms. Therefore, each initial offer should contain the offeror’s best terms from a price and technical standpoint. However, if considered necessary by the contracting officer, discussions may be conducted with those offerors determined to be in the competitive range.

The material must be sufficiently detailed to demonstrate an understanding of the technical Factors and Subfactors and the solicitation requirements.

In addition to the product samples, the offerors shall submit a written proposal in response to the factors and subfactors described in the solicitation in such detail to allow the Government to evaluate the proposal for each of the product samples.

Each Factor within the written proposal shall be submitted in separate Sections. The following are the factors and subfactors. (SEE FAR clause 52.212-2 for relative order of importance)

PRODUCT SAMPLE

Offerors shall ensure that product samples submitted are functional working units and are the exact units being proposed by the offeror to satisfy the requirements in the solicitation. If an offeror submits a defective product sample or the product sample malfunctions during testing it will not be returned to the offeror for rework or replacement.

Resubmission of product samples will not be allowed during the Product Sample Evaluation [and Final Proposal Revision phase]. An unacceptable rating in the Product Sample Evaluation subfactor will render the offeror technically unacceptable and the offer will be ineligible for award.

Offerors shall provide two product samples per proposal in accordance with Performance Specification PS/16/JXQR/147, SOW, and CDRLs (production representative) for the ESLRF that is being solicited. The two product samples shall be identical in configuration.

Resubmission of product samples will not be allowed during the Product Sample Evaluation [and Final Proposal Revision phase]. A product sample failing any GO/NO-GO Product Sample Evaluation will render the offer technically unacceptable and the offer will not be considered for award.

Product Samples will be returned to the offerors after award of the contract. The offeror must provide an RMA number for return shipment of the product samples. The Government does not intend to do destructive testing, however the Government cannot guarantee the product samples will be returned in the same condition as received.

With regard to prime contract assignments that will be performed by the Offeror and not a proposed subcontractor, the Offeror shall indicate:

Note: Offerors are reminded that both independent data and data provided by offerors in their proposals may be used to assess offeror past performance. Since the Government may not necessarily interview all of the sources provided by the offerors, it is incumbent upon the offeror to explain the relevance of the data provided. The Government does not assume the duty to search for data to cure problems it finds in proposals. The burden of providing thorough and complete past performance source data remains with the offerors. Proposals that do not contain the information requested by this paragraph risk rejection or high performance risk assessment by the Government.

5.) For the purposes of this solicitation, recent contracts are defined as those on which performance occurred on or after July 2013. In determining relevancy, the offeror should consider the size, content, and complexity type and value of the contract, and the type of requirement compared to this solicited requirement. The offeror should also consider the level or amount of effort. Only past performance dealing with EYE SAFE LASER RANGE FINDERS or “related technology” will be considered relevant. The offeror must provide details (if its Past Performance reference is based upon “related technology” as a reference) including how the “related technology” is applicable to the solicited effort. Should the offeror not explain how the related technology is applicable, the reference may not be considered relevant.

6.) Each offeror shall submit present and past performance information for itself on projects of similar size, scope, and technical complexity. The Offerors may choose to submit present and past performance information for major or critical proposed subcontractors, team members, or joint venture partners that have experience in projects of similar size, scope, and technical complexity with its proposal. The total number of past performance references for each offeror shall not exceed five (including any references submitted by subcontractors, team members and/or joint ventures). Offerors shall include in their proposal the written consent of their proposed major subcontractors to allow the Government to discuss the subcontractor’s past performance assessment with the offeror during negotiations. This volume shall provide a list of current and relevant contracts on which the offeror has performed in the format requested in the Proposal Requirements portion of this document. This information, as well as other information the Government may obtain elsewhere via Government databases (CPARs, PPIRs etc.) and other government agencies (DCMA, DCAA etc.), will be used to evaluate the offeror's past performance. The Government reserves the right to solicit feedback beyond what is identified in the questionnaire. NO CLASSIFIED PAST PERFORMANCE SUPPLEMENTS WILL BE ACCEPTED. The offeror may submit performance on classified programs as long as that information can be verified. If the offeror intends to submit in this manner the information that is classified (customer, contract number, etc.) shall be marked “reserved” and the description/write up of the work performed shall remain unclassified. If the offeror cannot describe what work was accomplished in an unclassified manner the offeror cannot submit that program for Past Performance evaluation. Offerors are notified that the Government will evaluate the data provided in this volume and data obtained from other sources that is determined to be current and relevant to the effort at hand in the development of its performance risk assessments.
