PROPOSALS (SEE FAR CLAUSE 52.212-2 EVALUATION COMMERCIAL ITEMS FOR Technical and price factors and submittal requirements)

MAILING HARD COPY PROPOSALS

Follow the instrcutions for mailing a hard copy:

Offerors are required to submit both technical and price proposals, and must be submitted in separate volumes.

Proposals consist of price and technical information. The technical proposal shall not contain any cost/pricing information.

Offerors shall submit an original price proposal with a completed electronic copy of the exhibit line items for the base period & four option periods. Additional copies of the price proposal are not required.

The solicitation requires the evaluation of price and the following non-price (technical) factors:

• Factor 1 – Experience

• Factor 2 – Safety

• Factor 3 – Past Performance

Offerors shall submit an original and one (1) copy of the technical proposal, in separate three-ring binders, that shall include the following:

• 8 ½ x 11 format

• 12 point Arial or Times New Roman font

• 75 page limit (inclusive of all charts, résumés, forms, catalog cuts, and other documentation responsive to the solicitation requirements), pages sequentially numbered

• Include a cover page with Contract Number, Contract Title, Prime Contractor Name, Address, Phone Number, Fax Number, DUNS, Cage Code, Point of Contact and their phone and email address

• Include only information in response to Factors 1, 2, and 3 separated by tabs, as applicable

• A complete electronic copy of the technical proposal as a .pdf file on a CD-ROM/DVD (include with the “original” technical submission)

In addition, the offeror may submit catalogue cuts, brochures or other pre-printed material as long as the exact item to be incorporated is identified. To facilitate the evaluation, the technical proposal should be sufficiently detailed and complete to clearly and fully demonstrate that the offeror has a thorough understanding of the requirements.

Extraneous information in the technical proposal may be construed as indicative of the offeror’s ignorance of the subject or a casual approach to the RFP. Statements that the prospective offeror understands and can or will comply with all specifications, statements paraphrasing the statement of work or parts thereof, and phrases such as “standard procedures will be employed” or “well known techniques will be used”, etc. will be considered insufficient.

Elaborate brochures, binding, detailed artwork are unnecessary. The technical proposal shall be clear, concise and shall include sufficient detail for effective evaluation and for substantiating the validity of stated claims. The proposal should not simply rephrase or restate the Government’s requirements, but rather shall provide convincing rationale to address how the offeror intends to meet requirements. Offerors shall assume that the Government has no prior knowledge of their experience, and will base its evaluation on the information presented in the offeror’s proposal.

Proposals unrealistic in terms of technical or schedule commitments or unrealistically low in price will be considered lacking technical competence or comprehension of the complexity and risks of the contract requirements and may be rated as technically unacceptable.

Proposals shall be submitted to the following address:

NAVFAC ML PWD Crane Attn: Nicole Napier-Kurdelski (Code PRX22) 300 Highway 361 Building 2516, NSA Crane, IN 47522-5082

Phone: (812) 854-3972

ALTERNATIVE SUBMISSION METHOD:

Follow the below instructions for submitting only an electronic proposal:

Offerors are required to submit both technical and price proposals electronically via the Solicitation Module in the Procurement Integrated Enterprise Environment (PIEE) website.

Department of Defense (DoD) training is available at https://dodprocurementtoolbox.com/site-pages/solicitationmodule.

Additional Web Based Training is available at https://pieetraining.eb.mil/wbt/xhtml/wbt/sol/index.xhtml It is the sole responsibility of the Offeror to obtain the RFP files, along with any amendments, from Contracting Opportunities Page on the sam.gov website.

Offerors shall allow adequate time to upload files which may be slower for non-DoD users and to avoid other technical difficulties that may be encountered. Offerors are also responsible for submitting files in the format specified and consistent with requirements stated elsewhere in this solicitation. Files that cannot be opened, or are otherwise missing the required content are the responsibility of offerors.

Hard copies of proposals are not required.

PROPOSAL EVALUTION:

The Government reserves the right to eliminate from consideration for award any or all offers at any time prior to award of the contract; to negotiate with offerors in the competitive range; and to award the contract to the offeror submitting the lowest priced, technically acceptable offer.

The Government will award a contract resulting from this solicitation to the responsible offeror whose offer conforming to the solicitation is the lowest price, technically acceptable proposal (LPTA). For this solicitation, the LPTA process is selected as appropriate for this acquisition because the best value is expected to result from selection of the technically acceptable proposal with the lowest evaluated price.

An overall non-price factors rating (technical rating) must be at least “ACCEPTABLE” in order to be eligible for award. An UNACCEPTABLE rating in any factor results in the overall non-price factors proposal being rated UNACCEPTABLE unless corrected through discussions.

An Overall non-price factors rating of UNACCEPTABLE makes a proposal ineligible for award.

For this solicitation, the combinations of the technical submittals are equal in value to the price.

The Government intends to evaluate proposals and award a contract without discussions with offerors (except clarifications as described in FAR 15.306(a)). The Government reserves the right to conduct discussions if the Contracting Officer later determines them to be necessary. In addition, if the Contracting Officer determines that the number of proposals that would otherwise be in the competitive range exceeds the number at which an efficient competition can be conducted, the Contracting Officer may limit the number of proposals in the competitive range to the greatest number that will permit an efficient competition among the most highly rated proposals.

In order to permit efficient competition, the Navy will utilize the following methodology: Proposals will initially be screened for price and placed in order (lowest to highest). The Navy will then evaluate the technical factors for the lowest priced proposal. If the lowest priced proposal is not found to be technically acceptable then the next lowest price proposal shall be evaluated. If that proposal is also not found to be technically acceptable, then the process described will be conducted again as many times as necessary, until such time as the Government identifies a technically acceptable proposal. Accordingly, under this methodology, the technical factors of some proposals may not be evaluated by the Navy. If discussions are deemed necessary by the Contracting Office, all proposals will be evaluated (both technical and price) for the purpose of establishing a competitive range.

NOTIFICATION AND DEBRIEFINGS – Notification of unsuccessful offerors shall be accomplished after award and in accordance with FAR 15.503. Debriefing of unsuccessful offerors shall be in accordance with FAR 15.505 and 15.506.

DISPOSITION OF PROPOSALS – After award, any excess copies of the proposal will not be returned to the offeror, but shall be destroyed by the Contracting Officer. No certificate of destruction will be issued.

QUESTIONS

ALL QUESTIONS MUST BE SUBMITTED IN WRITING. The offeror may submit written questions via e-mail to the address below, specifying the section and paragraph of the RFP for which clarification is desired. Inquiries must be submitted in writing via email to:

E-Mail: roberta.n.napier-kurdelski.civ@us.navy.mil

MAXIMUM NOT TO EXCEED (NTE) AND MINIMUM GUARANTEE

The minimum guarantee of work is the recurring services (CLIN 0001) for the base period. Concurrently with the award of the basic contract, the Government intends to issue a task order to obligate the contract minimum guarantee for: CLIN 0001, Base Period recurring work. Minimum guarantees do not apply to the option periods. The overall maximum dollar value of the contract is the total dollar value of the recurring services and non-recurring services for all CLINS for the base period and all option periods. The maximum shall not be exceeded except as may be provided by formal modification to the contract.

1. No person other than the Contracting Officer has authority to bind the Government with respect to this contract.

2. No action or omission of any government employee or representative other than the Contracting Officer shall increase or decrease the scope of this contract or shall otherwise modify the terms and conditions of this contract.

3. In no event shall any of the following be effective or binding on the Government or imputed to the Contracting Officer with respect to this contract:

(a) An understanding or agreement between the Contractor and anyone other than the Contracting Officer;

(b) A purported modification or change order issued by anyone other than the Contracting Officer;

(c) A promise by anyone other than the Contracting Officer to provide additional funding or make payments; or
