RFP Questions and Answers

1. Page 1. Block 1, Is this a rated contract under DPAS, and if so, what is the priority rating?

A. No, the contract is Unrated. The solicitation has been updated herein.

2. Page 7 and Attachment P6. Attachment P6 has CLIN 0007 noted in cell K421 however on Page 7 of solicitation N00421-18-R-0015, ODC CLIN is 0011 (there is no CLIN 0007-0010). What is the correct

CLIN number/structure?

A. Attachment P6 has been updated to reflect the correct CLIN number/structure.

3. Page 14. 3.1.4.1.4 Overtime – states that Overtime cannot be charged directly to the contract unless first approved in writing by the Chief of the Contracting. However, clause 52.222-2 Payment for Overtime

Premiums found on page 61 authorizes the use of overtime if the overtime premium cost does not exceed

$0.00. Please clarify if overtime is authorized.

(NAVAIR)(MAR 1999) states that the “Indefinite Quantity" of this contract, has a minimum quantity of

$10,000.00; the maximum quantity is the total contract value (ceiling of the contract), but on page 60, under FAR 52.216-19 ORDER LIMITATIONS (OCT 1995), it shows the Minimum order being

$5,000.00. Can you confirm what the minimum quantity is under this contract?

A. The minimum quantity of the contract is $10,000, while the minimum price for each individual order is $5,000.

5. Page 54. NAVAIR Clause 5252.228-9501 LIABILITY INSURANCE (MAR 1999) lists the types of insurance required In Accordance With (IAW) FAR 52.228-7, in particular (d) requires Aircraft public and passenger liability: $200,000 per person and _$500,000_ per occurrence for bodily injury, other than passenger liability; $200,000 per occurrence for property damage. Passenger bodily injury liability limits of

_$200,000 per passenger, multiplied by the number of seats or number of passengers, whichever is greater.

This could pose a burdensome expense for a small business; would the government consider removing (d) as part of the Insurance requirement?

A. No, the Government will not remove (d) as part of the requirement.

6. Page 68. Section K, If the information in Federal Awardee Performance and Integrity Information System

(FAPIIS) is accurate and up to date as required through an active registration in the System for Award

INFORMATION REGARDING RESPONSIBILITY MATTERS (JUL 2013)?

REPRESENTATION (SERVICES) (NAVAIR)(APR 1989) mandates that the Offeror must check one of the appropriate boxes, and submit along with the proposal; what area/section should this be included? Or should it be included as an Attachment and mentioned in the Cover letter, because it is not the same as

Attachment 2 – Organizational Conflict of Interest (OCI) List?

A. Information concerning conflicts of interest should be included as an Attachment to the proposal and included in the Proposal Cover Letter.

8. Page 77, 1.2.1 SOW Approach – is the Offeror to demonstrate their understanding of the work as it pertains to just those SOW paragraphs outlined in the table? Or all SOW paragraphs in 3.3? Please clarify.

9. Page 78. 2.1 Past Performance/General: Please clarify that past performance is not required from proposed subcontractors that do not meet the proposal definition of principal subcontractor.

A. The Past Performance Information Form is only required from principal subcontractors.

10. Page 78. 2.1 Past Performance/General: 2nd sentence of 3rd paragraph states “Due to the printing limitations associated with the Past Performance Information Form (Attachment P3), the Offerors may utilize the Past Performance Annex to include an exact copy of the full text from the “Contract Effort

Description” block or other blocks as appropriate for reviewing the data.” Is the Past Performance Annex a self-created document?

A. Yes, the Past Performance Annex is a self-created document to be attached to the Past

Performance Information Form.

11. Page 79. 3.1 Volume Content (b) “This volume shall contain a copy of Section B with the Contract Line

Item (CLIN) and Sub-CLIN Unit Prices...” Are there Sub-CLINs? Section B (pages 3-9) indicates Ceiling

Costs to be placed on CLIN 0001 and CLIN 0011. CLINS 0002-0006 and CLINS 0012-0016 are Not

Separately Priced (NSP). Please provide clarification regarding level CLIN/Sub-CLIN level for Cost

Volume.

A. The solicitation is herein revised to remove the following from Section L, Part B, paragraph 3.1(b)

“and Sub CLIN”. The Ceiling Costs will be placed on CLIN 0001 and CLIN 0011. No costs shall be proposed for the other CLINs at the basic contract level.

12. Page 80. 3.3 Price/Cost Information: Paragraph 1, states that the Offeror shall use the CLIN Summary tab in Attachment P6 to breakout cost by CLIN; however, there is no CLIN Summary tab. Please clarify or provide referenced CLIN Summary tab.

A. In accordance with the instructions for Attachments P6 and P7, the Offeror and subcontractors shall create a tab for each contract year and a “Summary” tab outlining the cumulative breakout for all contract years. The solicitation is herein revised to change language in Section L, Part B, paragraph 3.3 from: “The Offeror shall use the CLIN Summary tab to…” change to: “The Offeror shall create a Summary tab to…”

13. Page 80. 3.3 Price/Cost Information: Paragraph (a) states, “Show traceability with the CLINs, SubCLINs, PWS, proposed effort, proposed manning levels, and prices/costs. Refer to specific sections in the

Technical Volume as needed to illustrate the consistency between the Price/Cost Volume and the Technical

Volume.” Given that the cost proposal in Attachment P6 and Section B have all labor costs under CLIN

0001, it is not clear how this can be done. Can more clarification be provided on what the government wishes to see to fulfill this requirement?

A. The solicitation is herein revised to remove the requirement from Section L, Part B, paragraph

3.3(a) and mark the paragraph as “Reserved”.

14. Page 83. 3.4 Total Professional Compensation Plan: “The Offeror shall provide a Total Compensation

Plan in accordance with FAR 52.222-46 for each proposed professional employee.” According to the

FAR clause (found on pages 85-86) professional employees are defined in 29 CFR 541. Therefore, are we responsible to provide total compensation plan only for Professional Employees as defined in 29 CFR 541

(i.e. Professional Employees such as Engineers and NOT Executive Employees, Administrative

Employees, and Computer Employees)?

A. In accordance with Section L, Part B, paragraph 3.4, the Offeror shall provide a Total Professional

Compensation Plan for each proposed professional employee as defined in 29 CFR 541.

15. Page 83. 3.4 Total Professional Compensation Plan: The level of detail required by this paragraph is unclear. Could the govt provide a sample spreadsheet or template outlining the information required.

Regarding subparagraph (2), can you please clarify if this can be provided on a company-wide basis or is it required to be broken out by each individual professional employee?

A. The Total Professional Compensation Plan is a company generated document. The Government will not provide a template. The plan should be provided based on the offeror’s internal policies and procedures and shall include, but not be limited to the information required in Section L, Part

B, paragraph 3.4 (1), (2), and (3).

16. Page 77, 1.3.2 Transition Plan – is this section required for the incumbent? Please clarify.

A. Yes, the Transition Plan is still required for all offerors.

17. On Attachment 1, Contract Surveillance Plan (CSP), CDRL A002 is not included in the CDRL Data

Quality Standards Chart or the Quarterly Evaluation by Contract Data Requirements Lists Chart. Was this

CDRL purposely not included? In addition, the CDRL numbering in the SOW does not match that in the

CSP. Please clarify.

A. Yes, CDRL A002 will not be reviewed as part of the Contractor Performance Assessment Report

System (CPARS). The CSP has been updated herein and a revised version is provided.
