1.0 INTRODUCTION

This solicitation package is a Request for Proposals (RFP) that will result in the award of Firm Fixed Price Contract Award.

The is for non-nuclear surface ships (including DDG, CG, LPD, LSD, LHA, LHD, PC, MCM and LCS Class ships) and will be comprised of:

Emergent and continuous maintenance Availabilities (set aside for small business) Small Business Set-aside

In accordance with FAR 19.502, the acquisition described in this solicitation is reserved exclusively for participation by small business concerns. The applicable NAICS code for this solicitation is 336611, and the related small business size standard is 1,250 employees. Offeror’s are advised that the Government will evaluate and consider for award only those proposals submitted by Offeror’s that qualify as small business concerns under the applicable size standard. Offers received from Offeror’s that do not qualify as small business concerns will be considered nonresponsive and will be rejected by the Government. Offeror’s shall refer to the clauses entitled “Notice of Total Small Business Set-Aside” (FAR 52.219-6) and “Limitations on Subcontracting (DEVIATION 2021-O0008)” (FAR 52.219-14) under Section I of this solicitation for further information and requirements relating to a total small business set-aside.

1.1 ALL INQUIRIES shall be made via email and directed to Bailey Juvinall at bailey.juvinall@navy.mil, and Cheri Richard at cheri.richards@navy.mil . To ensure the Government is able to adequately address and respond to Offeror requests for clarification (RFCs) via amendment, if applicable, it is requested questions be submitted no later than 22 September 2022 at 9:00 AM (PDT). The Government reserves the right to not answer any requests received after 22 September 2022 at 9:00 AM (PDT). Furthermore, Offeror’s should note that the proposal due date will not be extended solely on the basis of requests received. RFCs shall reference the solicitation and specification page and paragraph number and be submitted on a request for clarification form (Attachment J-12) provided with this solicitation. A request for clarification form (Attachment J-12) shall be submitted for each question.

1.2 Offeror’s shall submit their proposal in accordance with the following preparation instructions. The Government will consider any failure on the part of an Offeror to comply with these instructions to be a non-responsive offer.

Therefore, the Government encourages Offeror’s to contact the Contracting Officer in accordance with the above instructions, in order to request clarification of any aspect of these instructions. If an Offeror believes that the requirements in these instructions contain an error, omission, or is otherwise unsound, the Offeror shall immediately notify the Contracting Officer in accordance with the submission instructions, with supporting rationale as well as the remedies the Offeror is asking the Contracting Officer to consider as related to the omission or error.

1.3 Each Offeror may submit only one (1) proposal. No alternate proposals will be accepted and submission of multiple proposals will result in disqualification of any Offeror submitting multiple proposals. The Offeror’s proposal submission should contain the Offeror’s best terms from a price and technical standpoint. A proposal should not simply rephrase or restate the Government’s requirements but rather provide convincing rationale to address how the Offeror intends to meet these requirements. Offeror’s shall assume that the Government has no prior knowledge of their facilities and experience and will base its evaluation on the information presented in the Offeror’s proposal.

The Offeror’s proposal shall be based on the requirements contained in this solicitation (including those documents, exhibits, and other attachments to the solicitation identified in Section J). Failure to comply with the terms and conditions of the solicitation and/or failure to provide all of the requested information may result in the Offeror’s proposal being rejected and may result in the Offeror being determined non-responsive and ineligible for award.

1.4 The Government may contact any, all, or a limited number of Offeror’s with questions concerning their proposals as permitted under FAR Part 15.

1.5 The overall security classification of the proposal shall be UNCLASSIFIED. If the Offeror needs to provide classified material, it shall be separated from the unclassified material and submitted as a supplement to the appropriate volume, and handled in accordance with appropriate security procedures. Any classified supplement will be considered a part of the stated page limitations of the appropriate volume. NO classified material is expected for this solicitation. Please contact the Contract Specialist administering this RFP, Bailey Juvinall, before any classified material is submitted.

1.6 Relationship between Instructions (Section L) and Evaluation (Section M): Section L provides information for the purpose of organizing the proposal and is not intended to be all inclusive. Section M describes evaluation factors for award. Since the Government evaluation of proposals will cover areas identified in Section M, proposals should address all such areas of evaluation.

1.7 “Pricing information” is defined as facts, statistics, or data describing the consideration an Offeror will receive in exchange for furnishing the supplies and services described in this solicitation. Pricing information may only be included within Volume II: Legal/Price Offer. Inclusion of pricing information within any other Volume will likely result in rejection of the Offeror’s proposal, as well as the Offeror being determined ineligible for award. If doubt exists as to what constitutes pricing information, Offeror’s are strongly encouraged to submit a request for clarification in accordance with paragraph 1.1 of this section.

1.8 Offeror’s are reminded past performance information is proprietary source selection information. The Government will only discuss past performance information directly with the prospective prime or sub-contractor that is being reviewed. If there is a problem with a proposed subcontractor’s past performance the prime may be notified of a problem, but no details will be discussed without the subcontractor’s permission.

1.9 Pursuant to FAR 4.502, the solicitation will be announced through the Government wide point of entry (GPE) at:

https://sam.gov and all solicitation documents will be posted on the GPE. The Government may post additional information to the GPE relating to this solicitation (e.g., a solicitation amendment responding to submitted Offeror requests for clarification). It is the Offeror’s responsibility to check the GPE for any such information.

For Past Performance information that has a completed CPARS evaluation in PPIRS, the Offeror is only required to complete PARTS I, II, and III of the Past Performance Questionnaire, Attachment J-27.

Any questionnaire received after the proposal due after the proposal due date/time will be late and may not be considered in the Offeror’s past performance evaluation. The Government, at its discretion, will determine whether questionnaires received after the proposal due date will be considered. The Government may validate past performance information with the source.

There is no page limit associated with Past Performance documentation.
