PWS

Performance Work Statement This Performance Work Statement (PWS) covers technical support services to the U. S. Navy Freedom

Class Littoral Combat Ship (LCS) Platform (3100 tons, LOA: 389 ft, Beam: 59 ft, Draft: 14 ft, Safety Navigational Draft: ft, Diesel/Gas Turbine Waterjet propulsion) while navigating through the Great Lakes and Saint Lawrence Seaway, to include all associated locks and canals. The scope of this PWS includes consulting services to support the safe navigation and maneuvering in close quarters situations for LCS through all phases of the transit.

The contractor shall possess experience navigating the LCS Freedom Variant, or identical waterjet driven ships, throughout the Great Lakes. The contractor shall be familiar with the route between Marinette, WI, Escanaba, MI and Halifax, NS, and have transited the passage at least once in the last five years. When a local pilot is embarked in addition to the maneuvering consultant, the two shall work together in advising the Commanding Officer in maneuvering of the ship and direction provided to tugs. The contractor shall remain a source for recommendations, even when a local pilot is embarked, and the Commanding Officer shall retain full command and responsibility for the safety of the ship at all times. The Maneuvering Consultant shall focus efforts on the training of the ship’s bridge teams and the safe maneuvering of the ship through waters, which are inherently unfamiliar to the crew. The contractor shall provide all necessary consulting to the Commanding Officer with respect to mitigation of risk exposure, voyage planning, local regulations, safe and effective methods of navigation, collision avoidance, sound seamanship practices, tides, currents, weather, and other environmental conditions. In consideration of the potential for additional hazards to arise to include mechanical or weather delays, the period of performance may be extended regarding the continuation of the transit. The estimated period of performance is 4-6 May 2022, and 13 May – 03 June 2022 for an estimated total of 25 days.

(c) Period for acceptance of offers. The offeror agrees to hold the prices in its offer firm for 30 calendar days from the date specified for receipt of offers, unless another time period is specified in an addendum to the solicitation.

Offerors are encouraged to submit multiple offers presenting alternative terms and conditions, including alternative line items (provided that the alternative line items are consistent with FAR subpart 4.10), or alternative commercial products or commercial services for satisfying the requirements of this solicitation. Each offer submitted will be evaluated separately.

(f) Late submissions, modifications, revisions, and withdrawals of offers:

(1) Offerors are responsible for submitting offers, and any modifications, revisions, or withdrawals, so as to reach the Government office designated in the solicitation by the time specified in the solicitation. If no time is specified in the solicitation, the time for receipt is 4:30 p.m., local time, for the designated Government office on the date that offers or revisions are due.

(2)(i) Any offer, modification, revision, or withdrawal of an offer received at the Government office designated in the solicitation after the exact time specified for receipt of offers is “late” and will not be considered unless it is received before award is made, the Contracting Officer determines that accepting the late offer would not unduly delay the acquisition; and--

(4) If an emergency or unanticipated event interrupts normal Government processes so that offers cannot be received at the Government office designated for receipt of offers by the exact time specified in the solicitation, and urgent Government requirements preclude amendment of the solicitation or other notice of an extension of the closing date, the time specified for receipt of offers will be deemed to be extended to the same time of day specified in the solicitation on the first work day on which normal Government processes resume.

Therefore, the offeror's initial offer should contain the offeror's best terms from a price and technical standpoint. However, the Government reserves the right to conduct discussions if later determined by the Contracting Officer to be necessary. The Government may reject any or all offers if such action is in the public interest; accept other than the lowest offer; and waive informalities and minor irregularities in offers received.
