III. PROPOSAL CONTENT

52.212-1 Addendum

Factor I - Staffing Approach

The Staffing Approach is limited to 5 pages (not including the Staffing Matrix) of narrative to explain how the staffing approach relates to the labor category matrix. The offeror shall provide a staffing approach that demonstrates the offeror’s ability to provide and retain the required mix and quantity of personnel resources with the skill set levels necessary to fulfill the functional areas of the PWS from the start to the end of the period of performoance on a task order award. The offerors response should demonstrate their understanding of the requirements in the PWS and how they tie to the proposed staffing approach to achieve successful outcomes.

At a minimum, the staffing plan shall include the following:

1. The offeror shall include a staffing matrix that indicates if the proposed resource is currently on staff with the prime, currently on staff with a proposed sub, or to be assigned upon award of a task order. A joint venture established and approved through the Small Business Administration (SBA) is considered the prime.

2. General staffing approach for utilization of the offeror’s personnel resources that demonstrates an understanding of the functional areas of the PWS and how the proposed staffing matrix demonstrates the contractor’s ability to provide qualified resources from the start to the end of the period of performance for a task order award.

Factor II - Past Performance

The offeror shall demonstrate relevant past performance or affirmatively state that it possesses no relevant past performance. Relevant past performance is performance under contracts or efforts performed within the past five years that is the same as; or similar to, the scope and magnitude of the work described by this solicitation. In addition, performance data will only be assessed for those references demonstrating at least 1 year of completed performance within the five years prior to the closing date of this solicitation.

To demonstrate its past performance, the offeror shall identify up to three (3) of its most relevant contracts or efforts performed within the past five (5) years, as determined by the closing date of this solicitation. Offerors should provide a detailed explanation demonstrating the relevance of the contracts or efforts to the requirements of the solicitation. For purposes of this solicitation, a contract is defined as a single contract or a single task order placed under an ID/IQ contract, a Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA), or a Federal Supply Schedule. Offerors may submit a combination of no more than three (3) delivery orders (DOs), task orders (TOs), technical direction letters (TDLs), and/or technical area tasks (TATs) placed under an ID/IQ or BPA as one of the three examples of past performance.

Such a combination must also meet the requirements stated above: each individual example in the combination must have been performed within five (5) years of the solicitation closing date and demonstrate at least one (1) year of completed performance during that five-year period. No more than one combination of DOs, TOs, TDLs and or TATs is permitted in the past performance submittal. If a combination of DOs, TOs, TDLs and or TATs are used as a past performance example, the offeror shall state the specific experience claimed, period of performance, and dollar value of each. A Past Performance example that does not provide the level of detail required will not be evaluated.

a. If proposed subcontractor past performance is provided as part of the three (3) of its most relevant contracts or efforts, the percentage and type of work to be done by the subcontractor on the solicitation requirement must be stated. The offeror’s submittal shall detail clearly the aspects of the work in the solicitation that the subcontractor is proposed to perform. A Past Performance example which does not detail clearly the aspects of the work in the solicitation that the subcontractor is proposed to perform will not be evaluated.

b. If the prime offeror or intended subcontractor/partner submits a past performance example in which it served as a subcontractor, the prime/sub/partner shall detail clearly the work that it performed and the magnitude (dollar value) of that subcontracted work only. A Past Performance example that does not differentiate between the overall contract effort and the subcontractor effort will not be evaluated, Subcontractor performance (either the offeror's own subcontractor experience or proposed subcontractors experience) of major or critical aspects of this requirement will be considered as highly as prime contractor past performance information for the offeror. Failure of offerors to provide the required information and level of specificity will result in the contract reference not being evaluated.

The following minimum information shall be provided within contractor submitted references:

Contract Number/Delivery Order Number Contract Type Annual Contract Cost Period of Performance Description of Work Valid name, phone number and e-mail address of Contracting Officer, Contracting Officer’s representative or Prime Contractor (if company was subcontracted). In the description of work, offerors shall provide a detailed explanation demonstrating the similarity of the contracts, in terms of scope, and magnitude, to the requirements of the solicitation for purposes of the relevancy review

In addition to the information requested above, offerors shall contact their past performance references and request that each reference complete Attachment– Past Performance Report Form (attachment 1) and e-mail the completed survey form directly to Jessica Daniels at Jessica.a.daniels@navy.mil by the DUE DATE AND TIME OF THIS SOLICITATION. The Government reserves the right to consider past performance report forms received after the due date of the solicitation and to contact references for verification or additional information.

Factor III – Price

The Price Proposal shall include the completed solicitation documents. The price proposal shall include all elements of price and other price information considered appropriate to support the offeror’s proposal. The pricing information shall be completed in accordance with the following:

SF1449 Section “Schedule of Supplies/Services” completed by the offeror.

Separate pricing information shall be submitted for each year of the services as well as a total for all five (5) years of the ordering period.

A complete and signed Standard Form 1449, “Solicitation/Contract/Order for Commercial Items” and executed copy of Amendments, if applicable.

Attachment I –Pricing Spreadsheet completed by the offeror (see below for additional instructions).

o Attachment I provides a template for offerors to use in the preparation of their price proposal. The intent is not to restrict the offerors in the manner in which they develop their pricing information but rather to ensure a certain degree of uniformity in the format of the responses for evaluation purposes. NOTE: Completing Attachment I does not alleviate offerors from providing any additional information required by the RFP. It is the responsibility of the offeror to ensure all formulas are accurate and correct. Offerors shall ensure the required information is provided for each year within the ordering period.

o The Firm-Fixed Price rates submitted in this Attachment will be incorporated into the resultant contract as the ceiling labor rates and shall be utilized by the offeror in the preparation of FFP pricing at the Task Order level.

Unless completed in SAM, “Representations, Certifications and Other Statements of Offerors” completed by the offeror (to be provided along with Price Proposal)

All price and price supporting information shall be contained in the Price proposal. No price or pricing information shall be included in any other volume including cover letters. Offerors are responsible for submitting sufficient information to enable the Government to fully evaluate their price proposal.

Proposal shall be valid for 180 days from solicitation closing date.

Offerors shall insert the Government estimated travel plug numbers provided below in their proposed price.

Period Travel Estimate 5 Year Ordering Period $250,000.00

52.212-2 ADDENDUM

Addendum to FAR provision 52.212-2, Evaluation—Commercial Items

EVALUATION CRITERIA AND THE BASIS FOR AWARD

The Government reserves the right to award five or less multiple award Firm Fixed Price (FFP) ID/IQ contracts to the responsible offerors whose proposal(s) is/are most advantageous to the Government under the selection criteria set forth in this solicitation. The Government intends to evaluate proposals and award a contract based on initial proposals. Therefore, the offeror's initial proposal should contain the offeror's best terms from a staffing approach, past performance and price standpoint. The Government reserves the right to award a contract to other than the lowest priced offeror; award a contract without discussions; or award a contract after discussions, whichever is in the best interest of the Government. The evaluation and award are being conducted in accordance with FAR Part 12, (Acquisition of Commercial Items) and FAR Part 15, (Contracting by Negotiation).

The offeror’s proposal shall be in the form prescribed by, and shall contain a response to each of the areas identified in solicitation.

The Overall Non-Price Factors will be evaluated based upon the Staffing Approach and Past Performance. The Non-Price factors being equal, will be more important than price.

The Government reserves the right to award five or less multiple award contracts.

The government will perform evaluations by starting with the lowest overall proposed price and evaluate technical submission, and award to the first (1 up to 5) of the lowest priced responsible offerors receiving an Outstanding Staffing Approach rating and a Substantial Confidence Past Performance rating whose overall price has been determined fair and reasonable. The government will only continue evaluations if (1-5) offerors have not received Outstanding Staffing Approach, and Substantial Confidence Past Performance ratings, the Government will then perform a trade-off among the remaining offerors to determine which offerors represent the best value to the Government.

Factor I – Staffing Approach

The offeror’s proposed Staffing Approach shall be evaluated on the basis of how well the offeror demonstrates the ability to provide and retain the required mix and quantity of personnel resources with the skill set levels necessary to fulfill the functional areas of the PWS at the start of and throughout the period of performance for a task order award.

Summary

A combined Technical/Risk Rating will be utilized in the evaluation of the Non-Price Proposal Factor I – Staffing Approach. The combined technical/risk rating includes consideration of risk in conjunction with the strengths, weaknesses, and deficiencies in determining technical ratings. Combined technical/risk evaluations will utilize Table 2: Combined Technical/Risk Ratings provided below.

Table 2. 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.

Note: A rating of “Marginal” for any Technical factor or sub-factor means that the offeror’s proposal is not awardable without a change or changes to the offeror’s proposal. A proposal which includes a “Marginal” rating is not eligible for award if award is made on initial offers. Offerors that receive a “Marginal” rating are considered to be susceptible to correction if the Contracting Officer determines that an exchange is appropriate and said exchange is conducted.

Note: Offerors receiving a rating of “Unacceptable” for any Technical factor or sub-factor will not be considered for an award and will not be further evaluated.

Factor II - Past Performance

The past performance evaluation factor assesses the degree of confidence the Government has in an offeror’s ability to meet the contract’s requirements based on the quality of a demonstrated record of recent and relevant performance. There are three aspects to the past performance evaluation: recency, relevancy, and quality. These are combined to establish a single performance confidence assessment rating for each offeror.

Past Performance Recency: Recency is the first aspect of the past performance evaluation and is the time period during which past performance references are considered relevant. Recency is critical to establishing the relevancy of past performance information. For purposes of this solicitation, recent past performance is performance that has taken place within five (5) years as of the closing date of this solicitation. Performance outside of this stated period will not be considered for evaluation purposes. In addition, performance data will only be assessed for those references demonstrating at least one (1) year of completed performance prior to the closing date of this solicitation.

Past Performance Relevancy:

Regarding relevancy, the aggregate of each offeror’s past performance references in terms of scope and magnitude will result in the assessed overall relevance of that offeror’s past performance.

The following definitions will apply to this evaluation:

Scope: Experience in the areas defined in the PWS.

Magnitude: The measure of the similarity of the dollar value of actually performed work that exists between the PWS and the offeror’s referenced contracts during the stated five-year period established by the solicitation.

Aggregate: The whole established by combining several disparate contracts or order.

Using Table 3 below, the relevancy assessment assigned to each past performance reference will be considered in determining the weight to be given to that reference in the overall Past Performance Confidence Assessment. The quality of performance under a past performance reference that that has no relevance to the instant requirement will not be considered in the overall assessment of past performance confidence. In determining the rating for the past performance factor, past performance of greater relevancy will have more influence on the past performance confidence assessment than past performance of lesser relevance.

Past Performance Quality Assessment: Each past performance reference under an offeror’s Past Performance submission that is found to have at least some relevance to the instant requirement will be evaluated to determine the quality of the offeror’s performance under that reference. In order to verify past performance information and determine the quality of the past performance submission, the Government may contact some or all of the references provided, as appropriate, and may collect information through questionnaires (i.e. the Past Performance Report Form), telephone interviews and existing data sources to include but not limited to Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting (CPARS). The references will be evaluated in the aggregate in order to allow offerors who may not have the entire scope and magnitude of the requirement under one individual contract or order to still be evaluated for quality of past performance with the full scope and magnitude of the requirement can be demonstrated within the allotted number of references as described above.

Past Performance Confidence Assessment: The overall assigned rating for past performance will be the Past Performance Confidence Assessment rating, defined in Table 4 below. The assignment of this rating will be based on the overall quality of the recent and relevant past performance and will also consider the source of the information, the context of the data, and general trends in the offeror’s performance. The quality of performance under a past performance reference that has no relevance to the instant requirement will not be considered in the overall assessment of past performance confidence. Evaluation will focus only on work already performed. Work yet-to-be performed and work prior the last five (5) years as of the closing date of this solicitation will not be considered. In addition, performance data will only be assessed for those references demonstrating at least one (1) year of completed performance prior to the closing date of this solicitation.

If the offeror’s aggregated past performance is determined to be not relevant as defined in the solicitation, then the quality of the offeror’s past performance will not be evaluated through a confidence assessment and the past performance factor will be rated as “Neutral Confidence.” If an offeror’s aggregate past performance is determined to be relevant, then each past performance reference under the offeror’s past performance submission that contributed to the determination of aggregate relevance (i.e., each reference that is rated at least somewhat relevant) will be evaluated to determine the quality of the offeror’s performance under that reference. The quality of performance on contract references that are rated not relevant is not evaluated even when the overall past performance is found to be relevant.

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 past performance factor. In this case, the offeror’s past performance is unknown and assigned a performance confidence rating of “Neutral Confidence.”

This consideration is separate and distinct from the Contracting Officer’s responsibility determination. The assessment of the Offeror’s past performance will be used as a means of evaluating the relative capability of the Offeror and other competitors to successfully meet the requirements of the RFP. In determining the rating for the past performance evaluation sub-factor, the Government will give greater consideration to the contracts which the Government feels are most relevant to the requirement.

In order to determine the quality of performance, the Government may utilize existing data sources, including the Past Performance Information Retrieval System (PPIRS), the Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS), the Federal Awardee Performance and Integrity Information System (FAPIIS), the Electronic Subcontract Reporting System (eSRS), or other databases; communication with points of contact in the offeror’s customer’s organization, which could include private sector requirements and contracts personnel, Administrative Contracting Officers, Defense Contract Management Agency (DCMA) personnel, Procuring Contracting Officers, Contracting Officer’s Representatives, and other Government activity requirements personnel. The Government may verify past performance information. The Government may contact some or all of the references provided, as appropriate, and may collect information through questionnaires, telephone interviews, and existing data sources. The Government reserves the right to obtain information for use in the evaluation of past performance from any and all sources, including sources outside of the Government. This information will be used for the evaluation of past performance.

The past performance factor evaluation and past performance confidence assessment rating is separate and distinct from the contracting officer’s responsibility determination. The assessment of the offeror’s past performance will be used as a means of evaluating the relative capability of the offeror and other competitors to successfully meet the requirements of the solicitation.

Table 3 – Past Performance Relevancy Description Table

Relevancy Description

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

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

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

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

Table 4 – Past Performance Confidence Assessment Ratings Table

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.

Factor III – Price Proposal The offeror’s price will be evaluated on the basis of price reasonableness. Price analysis will be used to determine the evaluated price to support the selection of the best value offeror(s). The evaluation may include, but is not limited to, the price analysis techniques listed at FAR 15.404-1(b)(2).

Although price is considered in a manner that makes it less important than the Non-Price factor, it has the potential to become more significant during the evaluation process. The degree of importance of the price will increase with the degree of equality of the proposals in relation to the other factors on which selection is to be based. The importance of price will also increase when a proposal's price is so significantly high as to diminish the value to the Government that might be gained under the other aspects of the offer. If, at any stage of the evaluation, all offerors are determined to have submitted equal, or virtually equal, or generally equivalent, Non-Price proposals, price could become the factor in determining which offeror shall receive the award. The PCO may evaluate any and all information submitted by the offeror to support the reasonableness of prices proposed. The method of evaluation used by the PCO/SSA is solely within the discretion of the PCO/SSA.
