Questions received after this date may be answered at the discretion of the

L.2.0 INSTRUCTIONS FOR SUBMISSION OF OFFERS

THE GOVERNMENT RESERVES THE RIGHT TO REJECT ANY PROPOSAL THAT DOES NOT COMPLY

WITH THESE PROPOSAL PREPARATION/SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS. NOTE: INFORMATION

REQUESTED AND SUBMITTED IN ONE VOLUME WILL NOT BE CONSIDERED FOR PURPOSES OF

EVALUATION OF INFORMATION CONTAINED IN ANOTHER VOLUME. COST PROPOSAL

SUBMISSIONS MUST REFLECT WHAT IS SUBMITTED IN THE TECHNICAL VOLUME. PROPOSALS

FOR WHICH THE COST ELEMENTS (E.G. NUMBER OF HOURS, LABOR CATEGORIES,

SUBCONTRACTORS) IN THE COST VOLUME DO NOT MATCH THOSE IDENTIFIED IN THE

TECHNICAL VOLUME MAY BE DEEMED UNAWARDABLE.

L.2.1 General Instructions

Proposals shall be submitted by e-mail to the contract specialist and PCO identified in section L.1.1. Proposals shall be received by the solicitation closing date and time specified on the cover page of this solicitation, block (9).

Offerors are encouraged to submit their proposal early enough to verify that their proposal was received prior to the closing date and time of the solicitation. Offerors shall comply with the instructions for the format and content of the proposal; proposals that fail to comply may be ineligible for award.

(a) Definitions. As used in this solicitation –

“In writing or written” means any worded or numbered expression which can be read, reproduced, and later communicated, and includes electronically transmitted and stored information.

Proposal modification is a change made to a proposal before the solicitation’s closing date and time, or made in response to an amendment, or made to correct a mistake at any time before award.

Proposal revision is a change to a proposal made after the solicitation closing date, at the request of or as allowed by a PCO.

mailto:abeer.ameer@navy.mil

Major Subcontractor is defined as a subcontractor performing 30% or more of total proposed burdened labor costs.

(b) Amendments to the solicitation. If this solicitation is amended, terms and conditions that are not amended remain unchanged. Offerors shall acknowledge receipt of any amendment to this solicitation by the date and time specified in the amendment(s).

(c) Proposal submissions, modifications, revisions, and withdrawals shall be e-mailed to the contract specialist and PCO at the above e-mail addresses referenced in paragraph L.1.1.

Offerors may submit modifications to their proposals at any time before the solicitation closing date and time. Proposal modifications after the solicitation close date and time are not allowed.

After the solicitation closing date and time, the offeror may submit revised proposals only if requested or allowed by the PCO.

Proposals may be withdrawn at any time before award. Withdrawals are effective upon receipt of notice by the PCO.

L.2.2 Electronic Submission

The offeror’s proposal shall be received via e-mail or DOD-SAFE at https://safe.apps.mil by the contract specialist and PCO by the solicitation’s closing date/time as stated in Block 8 in order to be eligible for award. If the proposal is not received by solicitation closing date, it will be deemed ineligible for award. In the event that the offeror experiences technical difficulties, the offeror shall immediately notify the PCO via e-mail or telephone prior to the solicitation closing date and time. Failure to submit a complete proposal prior to the solicitation closing date and time will in almost all circumstances render the proposal late and unacceptable.

Proposals may be withdrawn by written notice to the PCO provided such notice is received prior to contract award.

L.2.3 Proposal Format Instructions

All offerors are required to submit proposals in accordance with the format and content specified herein. The requirements below apply equally to subcontractors. Proposals that do not meet the below requirements may be deemed unacceptable and may not be eligible for award. The offeror shall include in its proposals data that they do not want disclosed to the public for any purpose, or used by the Government except for evaluation purposes.

The electronic submission shall:

Contain one copy of the respective proposal in Microsoft Word or Adobe Acrobat portable document format (i.e. “.doc,.docx, .xls, .xlsx, or .pdf”). Note, instructions regarding use of certain electronic products

(e.g. Microsoft Office, Excel, Adobe) listed herein shall not be construed as Government endorsement of specified product.

Hyperlinks to locations outside a document is not permitted, however, certain hyperlinks to places within a document, such as table of contents numbers, section headings, and table or figure cross references are acceptable.

Additionally, the electronic proposal shall be prepared so that, if printed, the proposal meets the following requirements:

Page setup parameters:

o Margins – Top, Bottom, Left, Right - 1”, o Gutter – 0”, Page Size, o Width – 8.5”, Page Size, Height – 11”

Pages shall be single-spaced and each paragraph shall be separated by at least a 6-point spacing.

The offeror will use a standard, Times New Roman 12-point minimum font. The Offeror may use a reduced legible font size, not less than 8 point in Times New Roman, Arial, Cambria, or Calibri font, and landscape orientation for Tables and Illustrations (i.e. graphs, tables, and charts).

L.3.0 FACTOR 1: TECHNICAL CAPABILITIES

https://safe.apps.mil/

3.1 Technical Approach and Capabilities

The offeror shall describe its ability to fabricate, test, inspect, package, and deliver hardware in accordance with the requirements of the drawing packages provided as reference documents, Government Furnished Information (GFI), and as identified in the Section C Statement of Work (SOW). In addition, the Offeror shall include a statement of capabilities, such as special or unique personnel qualifications, certifications, processes, skills, and methods available to perform mechanical fabrication.

Sample drawings are provided as in paragraph 4 of the SOW. Offerors may reference the sample drawings for the purposes of the solicitation. Offerors shall not construe the drawings to be an all-inclusive list of items that will be ordered under this BPA or utilize the drawings for providing pricing at this time. Response shall not exceed two (2) pages.

The Government expects that some businesses (large and small) may be able to perform a portion of the SOW, but not necessarily every task of the SOW. Vendors are encouraged to enter into the BPA even if the vendor can only perform some of the tasks described in the SOW.

3.2 Facilities

The Offeror shall describe its facilities, tooling, equipment, and machinery to fabricate, test, inspect, package, and deliver hardware. Response shall not exceed two (2) pages.

L.4.0 FACTOR 2: PAST PERFORMANCE

L.4.1 Recent and Relevant Past Performance

To the extent possible, the offeror shall provide a minimum of two and a maximum of five Past Performance

References with its proposal to encompass its relevant performance for periods in excess of six months within the last three years prior to the due date of proposals. Past Performance References shall be submitted using the format provided as Attachment 4 in Section J. In addition, the offeror shall submit at least one Past Performance Reference for the largest three major subcontractors, as defined in section L.4.2. If no proposed subcontractors meet the 30% total burdened labor cost threshold, at least one Past Performance Reference shall be provided for each of the subcontractors performing the largest portions of subcontracted work under this effort (or all subcontractors if fewer than three are proposed).

The Past Performance References should be relevant and provide sufficient context to enable evaluators to measure the likelihood that the offeror will satisfy the requirements. Common aspects for determining relevancy include similarity of service/supplies scope of work, complexity, dollar value, contract type, use of key personnel, and extent of subcontracting/teaming. The identified Past Performance References can be with Federal/state/local government, or private customers.

For each Past Performance Reference, the offeror shall identify at least two of the following customer POCs (or commercial equivalent): Program Manager (PM), Procuring Contracting Officer (PCO), or Contracting Officer’s

Representative (COR). The Offeror shall provide the current address, phone number, and email address for each

POC. The Government may use other information, such as CPARS data available from Government sources, to evaluate the offeror’s past performance. The Government may also consider past performance information obtained from sources other than those identified by the offeror, including Federal, State, and local Government agencies, Better Business Bureaus, published media and electronic databases, and/or personal knowledge. The Government reserves the right to limit or expand the number of references it decides to contact and to contact references other than those provided by the offeror. The offeror is encouraged to provide contract reference information for efforts on which they are the Prime contract holder. The offeror shall detail the extent to which they contributed as a subcontractor to the referenced contracts.

L.4.2 CPARS Reports and Past Performance Questionnaire (PPQ)

For each past performance reference identified, the offeror shall submit a completed CPARS report, if available, or a PPQ (provided as Attachment 5 in Section J). If a PPQ is submitted, but an official CPARS evaluation is found for the contract effort in Governmental databases, the official evaluation will take precedence. When CPARS reports are not available, the offeror shall submit one PPQ to each of its customer POCs identified in the Recent and

Relevant Past Performance References. In order to expedite the assessment process, the Offeror may complete the

“Contract Information” portion of the PPQ for the convenience of the customer POC. The offeror shall not, however, complete any other section of the PPQ. The questionnaire shall be provided to the customer POC with instructions to complete and submit it directly to the PCO on or before the proposal due date. Electronic submission via e-mail by the customer is preferred.
