In the event photo reduction is used for graphs and drawings, their presentation must be clear and legible. The cover sheet will not count towards the page limit. Each “page” is defined as one sheet, single-sided, 8 ½ “ x 11”, with at least one inch margins on all sides, using a font with a point size of 12 or greater (e.g., "Times New Roman" style with 12 point font). If both sides of a sheet of paper contain material, it will be counted as two (2) pages. Lines shall, at a minimum, be single-spaced. Pages shall be consecutively numbered. Vendor submissions shall not include hyperlinks. *Pages submitted in excess of the page limitations described above will not be evaluated.

The Price submission is not page limited; however, the Price submission is to be strictly limited to price information and completed solicitation documents as described below in the section entitled Submission Content.

All pages shall be numbered. A table of contents identifying the major sections of the total proposal and showing location by page references shall be included. This table will not be charged against the total page count as discussed later in this solicitation. Also, an index that cross references the requirements of the solicitation by paragraph/section to the Offeror's response by page/paragraph/section shall be included. This cross-reference index will not be charged against the total page count, nor will it be subject to formal evaluation procedures.

The proposal shall not contain classified information. The company name of the Offeror shall appear at the top of each page. The words “Source Selection Information - See FAR 3.104” shall appear at the bottom of each page. The Offeror must state explicitly whether or not any exceptions are taken to the terms and conditions of the solicitation.

If so, the Offeror should list, and provide its rationale, for any such exception. Any comments or exceptions to the specifications, terms and/or conditions must be addressed in this section and may form the basis for an Offeror to be considered ineligible for award. Alternate proposals are not authorized and will be rejected.

Each initial offer should contain the Offeror's best terms from a price and technical standpoint. It is the Offeror’s responsibility to ensure that there are no discrepancies presented within the information contained in its offer.

Potential Offerors are hereby notified that in the event there are discrepancies within the information received by the Government, or in comparison to Government information provided in the solicitation, the Government reserves the right to apply its judgment to resolve such discrepancies during the evaluation of the proposals without conducting discussions.

Offerors are advised to submit proposals that are complete and clear in all respects without a need for additional explanation or information. Offerors are cautioned against general, vague, or insubstantial statements that prevent or render difficult the concise evaluation of the proposal. The proposal must be sufficient and complete to demonstrate how the Offeror proposes to comply with the contract requirements. “Brochuremanship” is not desired; clarity and completeness are essential. Offerors are cautioned against re-stating the Performance Work Statement (PWS) requirements in its proposal, particularly with regard to technical requirements and must state how all of the Request for Proposal (RFP) and PWS requirements will be met. Statements such as “the Offeror understands” and “the Offeror shall/can comply,” along with responses that paraphrase the RFP, are inadequate. The use of phrases such as “standard practices” (with a specific Government reference or industry reference) does not indicate that an Offeror understands the requirements and will likely result in a diminished evaluation rating (i.e. unacceptable).

Data, even though previously submitted, or presumed to be known (i.e., previous projects performed for the Government), must be submitted with the Offeror’s proposal in order to ensure that it will be considered as part of the Offeror's proposal. Although the Government reserves the right to use data in its possession and from other sources, Offerors cannot assume other data will be considered. Offerors are hereby notified that the Government may contact references submitted by Offerors and may use information in Government files or from other sources to verify information provided in the Offeror's proposal.

Offers shall be presented in 3 volumes: Technical Capability Volume, Past Performance Volume, and Price Volume.

The Technical Capability Volume shall include 3 sections: Technical Approach; Certifications; and Quality Control Plan. The Past Performance Volume shall include no more than three (3) previous contracts. The Price Volume shall be presented in 3 sections: Prime Price Summary; Subcontractor Price (if applicable) and Additional Information.

Each Volume shall include an initial title page with the following information:

The item nomenclature and solicitation number of the request for proposal;

The full company name of the Offeror;

The address of the Offeror;

The Offeror's position regarding disclosure of proposed data in accordance with the provision entitled, "Restrictions on Disclosure and Use of Data in Proposals;" and Contractual Point of Contact, including title, telephone number, fax number, email address.

VOLUME I: TECHNICAL CAPABILITY

The technical submission shall clearly convince the government that they are able to provide qualified personnel who are technically capable of performing the work required with the expertise identified within the PWS by contract start date. The contractor is not required to provide a copy of the PWS; however, the response must clearly indicate the technical capability of the offeror to meet all requirements outlined in the PWS. Additionally, the technical approach shall provide a demonstration of the offeror's understanding of and familiarity with, the specific requirements of the PWS. All personnel shall have a Secret clearance by contract start date. The quote shall be in the form prescribed by, and shall contain a response to each of the areas identified in solicitation provision FAR 52.212-1 entitled “Instructions to Offerors-Commercial Items”.

The technical rating reflects the degree to which the proposed approach meets or does not meet the minimum performance or capability requirements through an assessment of the strengths, weaknesses, significant weaknesses, deficiencies, and risks of a proposal.

A combined technical/risk evaluation considering risk in conjunction with the strengths, weaknesses, and deficiencies in determining technical ratings shall be used. The technical risk evaluation shall utilize the combined technical/risk ratings listed in the following table. Adjectival ratings and rating descriptions will be used to assign an overall rating to each technical proposal and to assign a rating for each technical factor. Use upper case letter ratings for major technical factors as well as the overall rating. The addition of plus (+) or minus (-) to an adjectival rating is not allowed.

Section 1: Technical Approach

The Offeror shall provide a narrative explanation of its general understanding of the methodology and ability to perform all tasks listed in the PWS 3.1 through 3.8, including all tasks and subtasks. The technical approach should demonstrate that the Offeror can accomplish the specified work in a technically competent, timely, price effective manner with a minimum of risk to the Government. The narrative should provide a complete analysis of the performance requirements and explain the processes, best practices and other methods the Offeror will use to meet each requirement stated in the PWS. The technical approach is not to be a restatement of the information contained in the PWS.
