SUMMARY OF CHANGES

SECTION A - SOLICITATION/CONTRACT FORM

The following have been modified:

SOLICITATION/CONTRACT FORM

AMENDMENT 0001

The purpose of this amendment is to make revisions to the solicitation as outlined below and provide responses to

RFP questions.

Section C

- Paragraph 3.4.5 – o Experience and Education Level definitions for SENIOR has been revised from, “A Senior labor category has over 10 years of relevant experience and a BA/BS degree.” to, “A Senior labor category has over 10 years of relevant experience and a BA/BS degree unless otherwise noted under the labor category.”

- Paragraph 3.4.5.1 – o Program Manager (Key), SOC 11-1021 (Secret) (c) Experience, has been revised from, “Must have at least ten (10) years of relevant system acquisition experience.” to, “Must have over ten

(10) years of relevant system acquisition experience.”

Section L

- Paragraph 1.1.1.1.1 (3) o Paragraph 1.1.1.1.1 (3) has been revised from, “Discuss Cost Estimating Reports (CERs) you have developed for previous projects in the area of Aircraft, Weapons, avionics, or ILS and O&S cost estimating that can be incorporated into this estimate.” to, “Discuss Cost Estimating Relationships

(CERs) you have developed for previous projects in the area of Aircraft, Weapons, avionics, or

ILS and O&S cost estimating that can be incorporated into this estimate.”

**All other terms and agreements remain unchanged**

** The closing date and time remain unchanged**

RFP Questions and Answers

1. Reference Pages numbered 21 and 22 of the Solicitation-regarding the Cost Analyst Senior labor categories, does the government consider degrees in Economics, Agricultural Biochemistry, and Interdisciplinary studies with a concentration in Science and Technology as qualifying degrees as long as the completed coursework has the required 24 quantitative analysis course hours?

A: In accordance with Section L, paragraph 1.3.1.3 (b) “If the qualification (i.e. education, experience) does not readily or easily compare to the minimum qualification stated in the SOW, the Offeror has the burden of proof to show how proposed qualifications meet the minimum qualifications.” This would include demonstrating that the degree field fits into the specified categories of Business, Engineering, Science (Physics or Chemistry only) or Mathematics. As stated in this RFP per the Labor Category, regardless of the degree field, a minimum of 24 semester credit hours in quantitative analysis courses are required.

2. The solicitation references a "Past Performance Annex." Is this a contractor developed/formatted document or does the government intend to provide a specific format for the subject Annex?

A: A contractor developed/formatted document is acceptable for the Past Performance Annex.

3. Section C. paragraph 3.4.5.1 Labor Qualifications: For the Cost Analyst, Senior (Secret) Labor category, under

(c) Experience, a Masters or PhD degree in business, math, science (physics or chemistry only), or engineering may be substituted for two years of the experience requirements. However, under the Cost Analyst, Journeyman Labor

Category, (c) Experience, the same substitution of an advanced degree is not included. Personnel who enter the workforce after obtaining advanced degrees in Math & Engineering fields tend to command a higher salary more commensurate with the Journeyman level then the Junior level labor category. Would the Government be willing to extend a similar substitution of an advanced degree for three years of experience for the Journeyman level? Also. In the 3.4.5 Experience and Education Level definitions, the same substitution of an advanced degree for years of experience is not listed. Do the definitions within 3.4.5.1 supersede those in 3.4.5?

A: No, the Government maintains the current required experience stated in this RFP for the Journeyman Labor

Category and will not extend a substitution for Master’s degree for the Journeyman Labor Category. Section C, Paragraph 3.4.5 has been revised herein to clarify degree qualification substitutions.

4. Section L, Part B, para 1.1.1.1.1 (3) states: “Discuss Cost Estimating Reports (CERs) you have developed for previous projects in the area of Aircraft, Weapons, avionics, or ILS and O&S cost estimating that can be incorporated into this estimate.” Did the government intend this to be Cost Estimating Relationships instead of Cost

Estimating Reports?

A: Yes. Section L, Part B, Paragraph 1.1.1.1.1 (3) is revised herein to state Cost Estimating Relationships

(CERs).

5. Is it acceptable to have an Acronym List as an Appendix or attachment? If so, does it count against the allowable page count?

A: Yes, an Acronym List is acceptable to have as an Appendix or Attachment. An Acronym List would be considered as part of the page count.

End of Amendment 0001. (The above information will be removed at the time of award.)
