The following have been modified:

SOW

Statement of Work Vehicle Maintenance Contract

Ground Mobility Engineering Branch (JXVM)

1.0 SCOPE

Maintenance and up to, and including refurbishment and Inspect or Repair Only As Necessary (IROAN) will be performed on but not limited to the following vehicles:

Bearcats, High Mobility Multi-Wheeled Vehicles (HMMWV) primarily M1114, M1116, M1151, and M1165 variants, Logistics Vehicle System Replacement (LVSR), 7-Ton Trucks, Joint Light Tactical Vehicle (JLTV), Aircraft Rescue Fire Fighting (ARFF), and Tactical Trailer. The proposed Period of Performance (POP) for this contract is 5 years.

The estimated quantity of vehicles is as follows:

Year 1 Year 2 Year 3 Year 4 Year 5 Bearcat 10 10 10 10 10

HMMWV 6 6 6 6 6

LVSR 1 1 1 1 1

7-Ton Truck 1 1 1 1 1

JLTV 1 1 1 1 1

ARFF 1 1 1 1 1

Tactical Trailer 3 3 3 3 3 Ballistic Glass Replacement 10 10 10 10 10

The fleets are comprised of approximately fifty-three (53) Bearcats and thirty-nine (39) HMMWVs requiring refurbishment. The estimated annual quantity for Bearcats seen above is based upon a ten (10) week turnaround time with two (2) Bearcats sent to the Offeror initially and two (2) additional Bearcats sent when the first two (2) are completed. In the event that the Offeror is able to shorten the turnaround time, each annual quantity of Bearcats may increase until all Bearcats are refurbished or the contract ceiling has been reached. The HMMWV annual quantities may also fluctuate based upon turnaround time. The larger vehicles (those other than Bearcats and HMMWVs) are anticipated to be ten (10) or less years old.

1.1 Background

Historically, Naval Facilities (NAVFAC) Engineering Command has supported all echelons of maintenance for the tactical vehicles affiliated with Command, Control, Communications, Computers, Cybersecurity, Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (C5ISR) Integration Division programs at NSWC Crane. A memorandum released by NAVFAC on 22-Sep-2016 stated that all tactical vehicle support would cease in Fiscal Year (FY) 17. This discontinuation of support leaves the C5ISR Division with a gap in capabilities that the Division’s customers have relied upon for many years. The intent of this contract will be to fill this gap on all current and future tactical vehicle platforms. The vehicles that are currently being supported are produced by AM General, Lenco (Bearcat integrator), Ford Motor Company (F550 Bearcat chassis/drivetrain), Caterpillar (Engines in larger vehicles).

3.0 REQUIREMENTS

3.1 Vehicle Transportation

The Government will ship the majority of vehicles to the Contractor. For the remaining vehicles, the Contractor shall provide transportation from or perform maintenance activities at a SeaPort-e Contractor’s facility in Bedford, IN or NSWC Crane. The Government will notify the Contractor of those vehicles requiring transportation or onsite maintenance via the funding of an order for transportation and/or a LTI.

3.2 Joint Limited Technical Inspection (LTI)

The Contractor shall schedule the funded LTI with the Government to occur within 4 working days after receipt of the vehicle or funding of the LTI, whichever is the latter. The Contractor shall not perform an LTI or any other evaluation without a Government Representative present. This limited technical inspection shall be completed in accordance with NAVMC 10284 Limited Technical Inspection (LTI) and will allow the Contractor to look at the vehicle and to gain an initial impression of the current state of the vehicle. The Joint LTI will also drastically reduce any discrepancies with the condition of the vehicle between the Contractor and the Government. The time allowed for the Joint (LTI) shall be a maximum of 2 hours.

A001 – Joint LTI Report NAVMC 10284 Limited Technical Inspection (LTI) –

Motor Transport process and checklist

3.3 Repair Cost Estimate

The Contractor shall have 1 business day after the LTI to prepare an estimate for the repair of the vehicle. Repairs will either be firm fixed price or on a time and materials basis.

No repair work shall commence until the COR has approved the repair cost estimate and a modification to apply funding has been issued.

A002 – Repair Cost Estimate (Contractor format)

3.3.1 Chemical Agent Resistant Coating (CARC) Application

The vehicles that are being repaired may require the application of CARC Paint to repair areas of the vehicle that were damaged upon receipt or were damaged (intentionally or unintentionally) during the repair of the vehicle.

The Contractor shall have the capability to perform small repairs up to and including painting an entire vehicle.

3.3.2 Ballistic Glass Re-lamination/Replacement

The Bearcats and the HMMWVs both contain ballistic glass. Over time, this ballistic glass will de-laminate causing the glass to be unsafe for use due to lack of visibility. In order to correct this issue, NSWC Crane has been re-laminating the HMMWV glass through the use of a process developed by the Naval Research Laboratory (Repair Methods for

Delaminated Transparent Armor NRL/MR/6350—14-9501). This process involves the use of an autoclave to apply a prescribed pressure and heat to the glass over a period of time. This re-lamination process has previously been completed by Indy Performance Composites (IPC).

The contractor shall be provided the instruction for this re-lamination and have the ability to re-laminate the glass or the ability to sub-contract this effort. In the event that the ballistic glass is unable to be re-laminated, the Contractor shall buy new replacement ballistic glass.

3.3.3 IROAN

The IROAN process is defined as a maintenance technique which determines the minimum repairs necessary to restore equipment, components, or assemblies to prescribed serviceability standards by utilizing all diagnostic equipment and test procedures in order to minimize unnecessary disassembly and parts replacement. The IROAN process never adds any new capability to the vehicle; it only returns the vehicle to a fully functioning vehicle in its most current documented configuration.

The turnaround time for IROANs shall be no more than 10 weeks from the date of the LTI.

3.3.4 Refurbishment / Remanufacture

Similar to the IROAN process, the refurbishment process shall restore equipment, components, or assemblies to prescribed serviceability standards in their most current documented configuration. The Bearcat Refurbishment List and HMMWV Refurbishment List state items that shall be restored to the most current documented configurations for Bearcats and HMMWVs, respectively. These lists may not be all inclusive.

Upon completion of refurbishment, the Bearcats and HMMWVs shall be fully operational, returned to Condition Code A as related to vehicle maintenance and defined in DoD 4000.25-2-M. Any ancillary tasks, services, or parts required during the refurbishment process to reach Condition Code A as related to vehicle maintenance, shall be provided in the FFP proposal. For example, this would include but is not limited to all alignments and calibrations among other standard commercial best practices. The turnaround time allocated for refurbishment shall be no more than 10 weeks from the date of the LTI.

3.3.5 Standard Maintenance

The following maintenance procedures will be fixed price for each type of vehicle listed in this SOW: oil/oil filter change, belt replacement, tire change/replacement, transmission fluid change, differential oil change, fuel filter change, and grease all Zerk fittings. Upon completion, the vehicles shall be fully operational, returned to Condition Code A as defined in DoD 4000.25-2-M for the maintenance items listed above. Any ancillary tasks or services required during the maintenance process to reach Condition Code A for those maintenance activities listed shall be completed and included in the FFP proposal. For example, this may include but is not limited to all alignments and calibrations among other standard commercial best practices.

3.4 Post Repair Inspection

The Contractor shall provide a post repair inspection checklist at the conclusion of the vehicle repair along with a NAVMC 10284 LTI. This report may be in the Contractor’s format and will vary depending on the level of repair that the vehicle required. At a minimum, the report shall contain the following information:

Vehicle serial number, vehicle mileage, vehicle hours (if available), date of inspection, parts inspected, inspection method (visual, driving, gauge reading, etc.) and result of inspection, miles vehicle was driven after repair.

The Government will perform a post repair inspection of the vehicle at the Contractor facility. Should an item that was listed as repaired be found to be faulty, the Requiring Technical Authority (RTA) of this contract along with the Contractor representative shall work through the Contracting Officer’s Representative (COR) in order to resolve the issue.

If within 30 days of vehicle delivery to the Government, the vehicle requires transportation back to the Contractor due to the vehicle malfunctioning in the same way that was recorded in the Joint LTI, the Contractor shall not be reimbursed for the transportation or the repair.

A001 – Joint LTI Report NAVMC 10284 Limited Technical Inspection (LTI) –

Motor Transport process and checklist A003 – Post Repair Inspection Checklist

3.5 Vehicle Return Transportation

Once the vehicle repair has been completed, the Contractor shall be responsible for arranging transportation of the vehicles to the Government facility.

Transportation of the vehicle back to the Government facility must be able to be completed in 96 hours (transportation estimate to Kings Bay, GA; Silverdale, WA;

Bedford, IN; and NSWC Crane).

3.6 Travel

The Contractor may be required to travel to a location other than NSWC Crane in part to assist the government in assessing vehicles prior to shipment. This would be done in an effort to be able to select vehicles that are in the best condition, therefore making them the most cost effective candidates for use and/or repair.

Due to the size of some tactical vehicles, it may be necessary for the Contractor to also perform maintenance and/or repairs at locations other the Contractor’s facility.

4.0 GOVERNMENT FURNISHED EQUIPMENT, MATERIAL, AND

INFORMATION

The Government shall provide the following items that are critical to accomplishment of the tasking in this SOW:

4.1 Government Furnished Equipment (GFE)

Vehicle Automated Diagnostic Equipment (VADS)

4.2 Government Furnished Information

3.3 A002 Repair Cost Estimate (Contractor Format)

3.4 A003 Post Repair Inspection Checklist

6.0 SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS

6.1 Security

While the vehicle is at the Contractor’s place of business, the vehicle will need to be secured. The ideal situation would be that the vehicle is contained in an access controlled lot. If this is not available, securing the vehicles independently is acceptable. Securing the vehicles can be done by locking the doors (if locks are present) or placing padlocks on the doors.

6.2 Government Personnel in Contractor Workspace

Some of the vehicles are at NSWC Crane for the purpose of receiving Engineering Change Proposals (ECPs) in addition to the vehicle maintenance to be provided by the Contractor. Depending on the complexity, NSWC Crane personnel may train Contractor personnel to perform the ECPs. This would occur at the Contractor facility. It may also be necessary for NSWC Crane personnel to perform the ECPs at the Contractor facility. The extent of this work is unknown.

52.212-2 EVALUATION--COMMERCIAL ITEMS (OCT 2014)

(a) The Government will award a contract resulting from this solicitation to the responsible offeror whose offer conforming to the solicitation will be most advantageous to the Government, price and other factors considered.

The source selection procedures for this acquisition will document the process to meet the Navy’s final objective in providing tactical vehicle maintenance and refurbishment services to meet the requirement. An award will be made to the responsible Offeror whose proposal provides the best value to the Navy. The source selection procedures will document a selection that will maximize the efficiency of the proposal evaluation and selection process to ensure a timely contract award, selection of the vendor whose proposal represents the best value to the Government when considering technical, past performance, and price factors, and will ultimately be the basis for the selection decision.

The Government reserves the right to award to the offeror whose technical and/or past performance rating is higher than offerors with lower price in accordance with the evaluation factors described within this clause. Award will not be made to an offeror whose proposal is determined technically unacceptable, regardless of the offeror’s past performance rating and price.

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 cost/price proposed be the offeror’s best terms. Therefore, each initial offer should contain the offeror’s best terms from a price and technical standpoint.

A source selection team will be utilized to evaluate proposals from the Offerors. The team will provide a final report with technical selection recommendations to the SSA. The SSA will evaluate the information provided from the review panel and the cost evaluator and will make a final best value decision regarding the selection of a successful Offeror.

The proposal will be evaluated for best value against the following factors and sub-factors:

Factor 1: Technical Capability Subfactor (a): Technical Approach Subfactor (b): Experience

Subfactor (c): Facilities

Factor 3: Total Evaluated Price

The source selection factors, listed in descending order of importance, are Technical Capability, Past Performance, and Total Evaluated Price. Technical Capability is significantly more important than Past Performance, and Technical Capability and Past Performance, when combined, are significantly more important than Price. However as competing proposals approach Technical Capability and Past Performance equality, Total Evaluated Price will increase in importance.

Factor 1: Technical Capability - subfactors (a), (b), and (c) are of equal importance.

Exclusively while the RFP is open, the Government encourages a site visit to Government facilities to investigate work currently being completed at NSWC Crane. Each Offeror may allow up to three (3) personnel to visit. To schedule a visit to NSWC Crane, please email the Contract Specialist, Erin Wittmer at erin.wittmer@navy.mil using the subject line N0016418RJV22 Government Facility Visit – (Offeror’s name), allowing a minimum of three (3) business days to make arrangements. Within the text of the email, please include the names and titles of personnel to visit, date requested for the visit, and contact information. Site visits shall be completed no later than one (1) week prior to the closing date.

Additionally the Offeror shall make their facilities accessible to the Government during evaluation. The Government will contact the Offeror allowing for a minimum of three (3) business days to make these arrangements.

Subfactor (a): Technical Approach.

The Government intends to evaluate the overall approach, teaming arrangements, and any other pertinent technical information provided. In addition, the Government will evaluate the following tasks for thoroughness of approach, accuracy and completeness of processes described and ability to return assets to Condition Code A as required by the Statement of Work.

Engine Replacement Scenario Bearcat Refurbishment Sample Set HMMWV Refurbishment Sample Set

Subfactor (b): Experience

The Government intends to assess the experience levels and capabilities of both the company and personnel with high influence and responsibility for the success of the maintenance, repair, and refurbishment work, for example the shop foreman, head mechanic and/ or employees with similar responsibilities.

Subfactor (c): Facilities

Facility requirements are in place to ensure contractors can accommodate the size of the tactical vehicles

The technical rating reflects the degree to which the proposed approach meets or does not meet the threshold performance or capability requirements. The combined technical/risk rating method will be utilized which includes consideration of risk in conjunction with the strengths, weaknesses, significant weaknesses, and deficiencies in determining technical ratings. The following descriptions will be used:

Description Definition Strength An aspect of an offeror’s proposal that has merit or exceeds specified performance or capability requirements in a way that will be advantageous to the Government during contract performance.

Weakness A flaw in the proposal that increases the risk of unsuccessful contract performance.

Significant Weakness A flaw in the proposal that appreciably increases the risk of unsuccessful contract performance.

Deficiency A material failure of a proposal to meet a Government requirement or a combination of significant weaknesses in a proposal that increases the risk of unsuccessful contract performance to an unacceptable level.

Combined technical/risk evaluations shall utilize the combined technical/risk ratings listed in Table 1. Assessment of technical risk, which is manifested by the identification of weakness(es), considers potential for disruption of schedule, increased costs, degradation of performance, the need for increased Government oversight, and/or the likelihood of unsuccessful contract performance.

Table 1. Combined Technical/Risk Rating Method Adjectival Rating Description

Outstanding Proposal indicates an exceptional approach and understanding of the requirements and contains multiple strengths, and risk of unsuccessful performance is low.

Good Proposal indicates a thorough approach and understanding of the requirements and contains at least one strength, and risk of unsuccessful performance is low to moderate.

Acceptable Proposal meets requirements and indicates an adequate approach and understanding of the requirements, and risk of unsuccessful performance is no worse than moderate.

Marginal Proposal has not demonstrated an adequate approach and understanding of the requirements, and/or risk of unsuccessful performance is high.

Unacceptable Proposal does not meet requirements of the solicitation, and thus, contains one or more deficiencies, and/or risk of unsuccessful performance is unacceptable. Proposal is unawardable.

The Government will assess each Offeror’s past performance and assign an overall confidence rating in accordance with Table 2 below. The assessment will be an unbiased judgment about the quality of an Offeror’s past performance. The Government will use its subjective assessment to make a comparative assessment of an Offeror’s capability. Past performance is a measure of the degree to which an Offeror satisfied its customers in the past and complied with the Specification, Drawing, State of Work, Performance Work Statement, contract schedule and contract terms and conditions. Past performance is also a measure of the risk of performance associated with the offeror.

Table 2. Performance Confidence Assessments Rating Method Adjectival Rating Description

Substantial Confidence Based on the offeror’s recent/relevant performance record, the Government has a high expectation that the offeror will successfully perform the required effort.

Satisfactory Confidence Based on the offeror’s recent/relevant performance record, the Government has a reasonable expectation that the offeror will successfully perform the required effort.

Neutral Confidence No recent/relevant performance record is available or the offeror’s performance record is so sparse that no meaningful confidence assessment rating can be reasonably assigned. The offeror may not be evaluated favorably or unfavorably on the factor of past performance.

Limited Confidence Based on the offeror’s recent/relevant performance record, the Government has a low expectation that the offeror will successfully perform the required effort.

No Confidence Based on the offeror’s recent/relevant performance record, the Government has no expectation that the offeror will be able to successfully perform the required effort.

The Government will assess the offeror's past performance in the areas of:

1. Recency. Expressed as a time period during which past performance references are considered relevant, and is critical to establishing the relevancy of past performance information.

2. Relevancy. The second is to determine how relevant a recent effort accomplished by the offeror is to the effort to be acquired through the source selection.

3. Quality. The Government may base its judgment about the quality of an offeror’s past performance on:

a. Records of objective measurements and subjective ratings of specified performance attributes, if available, and

b. Statements of opinion about the quality of specific aspects of an offeror’s performance, or about the quality of an offeror’s overall performance.

The Government may solicit information from an offeror’s customers and business associates; Federal, state and local government agencies and databases; and from other persons and organizations. The Government reserves the right to limit the number of references it decides to contact and to contact references other than those provided by the offeror. The evaluation will take in account the same type of information regarding significant subcontractors proposed in the offeror’s proposal.

The Contracting Officer is not responsible for locating or securing any information not furnished with the offer. The SSA/Contracting Officer may, however, utilize all available information, including information not provided by the offeror, in the past performance evaluation. The Government reserves the right to review less than all information submitted, and to only analyze sufficient information to make a reasonable determination of each offeror’s past performance rating. If insufficient information regarding the offeror’s corporate history is available, the offeror is encouraged to submit for evaluation, evidence of relevant past performance on the part of the offeror’s key/principal employees, as either a prime- or sub-contractor.

Past performance is assessed by the SSA/Contracting Officer and is assigned adjectival ratings in the evaluation.

There are three aspects to the past performance evaluation: recency, relevancy (including context of data), and quality (including general trends in contractor performance and source of information):

Recency - References will be considered recent that are either currently being performed or have been performed during the past three (3) years which are relevant to the effort required by this solicitation. The three years in which the recency will be evaluated will be from the closing date of the solicitation.

Relevancy - 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. The offeror must provide details (if its Past Performance reference is based upon “related services”) including how the “related services” is applicable to the solicited effort. Should the offeror not explain how the related services are applicable, the reference may not be considered relevant.

There are four levels of relevancy as shown in Table 3 below. Past performance of greater relevancy will be considered by the evaluation team as a strong predictor of future success and have more influence on the past performance confidence assessment than past performance of lesser relevance.

Table 3. Past Performance Relevancy Rating Method Adjectival Rating Description

Very Relevant Present/past performance effort involved essentially the same scope and magnitude of effort and complexities this solicitation requires.

Relevant Present/past performance effort involved similar scope and magnitude of effort and complexities this solicitation requires.

Somewhat Relevant Present/past performance effort involved some of the scope and magnitude of effort and complexities this solicitation requires.

Not Relevant Present/past performance effort involved little or none of the scope and magnitude of effort and complexities this solicitation requires.

Quality - The third aspect of the past performance evaluation is to establish the overall quality of the offeror’s past performance (see FAR 15.304(c)(2)). The past performance evaluation conducted in support of a current source selection does not establish, create, or change the existing record and history of the offeror’s past performance on past contracts; rather, the past performance evaluation process will gather information from customers on how well the offeror performed those past contracts. The Past Performance Evaluation Team will review all past performance information collected and determine the quality of the offeror’s performance, general trends, and usefulness of the information and incorporate these into the performance confidence assessment. A separate quality assessment rating will not be assigned; rather, the past performance confidence assessment rating is based on the offeror’s overall record of recency, relevancy, and quality of performance.

Offerors With No Relevant Past Performance - In the case of offerors for which there is no information on past contract performance or where past contract performance information is not available, the offeror may not be evaluated favorably or unfavorably on the factor of past contract performance (see FAR 15.305(a)(2)(iv).) In this case, the offeror’s past performance is unknown and assigned a performance confidence rating of “neutral.”

Although the SSEB may not rate an offeror that lacks recent, relevant past performance favorably or unfavorably with regard to past performance, a “Substantial Confidence” or “Satisfactory Confidence” past performance rating is worth more than a “Neutral Confidence” past performance rating in this best value tradeoff.

Factor 3: Total Evaluated Price (TEP)

Price will not be rated, but will be considered in determining the "best value" to the Government. Price evaluations will be performed by NSWC Crane Contracts.

Pricing for Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contracts will be evaluated based upon the proposed labor rate multiplied by the Government estimated annual labor hours, the proposed fixed price items multiplied by an estimated quantity, and a calculation to account for Government travel to and from the Offeror facility. The Offeror SHALL provide a loaded shop rate to be utilized on this contract action.

Government travel to and from the contractor facility will be calculated by multiplying the DTS per diem mileage costs for two trips to and from the Offeror facility by a set estimated number of vehicles for this effort. This will be added to the estimated labor costs for Government personnel travel to and from the Offeror facility for a set estimated number of vehicles. For example if a contractor facility is located 100 miles away the formula would be *similar to the following:

100 miles x 2 (to and from facility) x $0.56 per mile x 2 trips per vehicle x 115 vehicles = $22,540.00 mileage travel expenses

1.5 hrs travel time x 2 (to and from facility) x $125 per hour loaded labor rate x 2 employees x 2 trips per vehicle x 115 vehicles = $138,000.00 travel labor expenses

$22,540.00 mileage travel expenses + $138,000 travel labor expenses = $198,260.00 Government travel expenses added to the TEP

*Note: the Government may use different rates and quantities than shown in the above example when calculating the Government travel costs based upon the most current and accurate costs and estimates, however the rates and quantities will be applied consistently to all proposals.

(b) Options. Paragraph deleted.

(c) A written notice of award or acceptance of an offer, mailed or otherwise furnished to the successful offeror within the time for acceptance specified in the offer, shall result in a binding contract without further action by either party. Before the offer's specified expiration time, the Government may accept an offer (or part of an offer), whether or not there are negotiations after its receipt, unless a written notice of withdrawal is received before award.
