(1) If a completed CPARS evaluation is available, it shall be submitted on CD with the proposal for each submission (individual projects and IDIQ cost contract) listed in Factor 1, Specialized Experience. If a final CPARS evaluation is not available or if the final CPARS evaluation does not provide cumulative information, Offeror(s) are to submit all interim evaluations, if available, for the entire period for all projects and IDIQ cost contract submitted for Factor 1. Offeror(s) should include a summary sheet with its proposal of all CPARS being submitted on CD to include contract number, task order number and indicate if the CPARS evaluation was an interim or final. Note: CPARS evaluations are only to be submitted on CD for this Factor.

(2) IF A CPARS EVALUATION IS NOT AVAILABLE for the projects and/or IDIQ cost contract submission, listed under Factor 1, Specialized Experience, the offeror shall submit a Past Performance Questionnaire (PPQ), Attachment JL.14, included in the solicitation. The offeror must ensure correct phone numbers and email addresses are provided for the client point of contact. Completed PPQs should be submitted with your non-cost proposal. If the offeror is unable to obtain a completed PPQ from a client for a project(s) before proposal closing date, the offeror shall complete and submit with the proposal the first page of the PPQ (Attachment JL.14), which will provide contract and client information for the respective project(s). Offerors should follow-up with clients/references to ensure timely submittal of questionnaires. If the client requests, questionnaires may be submitted directly to the Government's point of contact, Jennifer De Vera via email at jennifer.devera@navy.mil prior to the proposal closing date. AN OFFEROR SHALL NOT SUBMIT A PPQ WHEN A COMPLETED CPARS IS AVAILABLE. Offerors shall not incorporate by reference into their proposal PPQs or CPARS previously submitted for other RFPs. However, this does not preclude the Government from utilizing previously submitted PPQ information in the past performance evaluation.

(3) The offeror should also include any copies of award fee determinations pertaining to the projects provided under Factor 1, Specialized Experience since solicitation issuance date. Award fee determinations provided will not count towards the page limitations.

(4) In addition to the above, the Government may review any other sources of information for evaluating past performance. Other sources may include, but are not limited to, past performance information retrieved through the Past Performance Information Retrieval System (PPIRS) using all CAGE/DUNS numbers of team members (partnership, joint venture, teaming arrangement, or parent company/subsidiary/affiliate) identified in the offeror’s proposal, inquiries of owner representative(s), Federal Awardee Performance and Integrity Information System (FAPIIS), Electronic Subcontract Reporting System (eSRS), and any other known sources not provided by the offeror.

(5) The Government reserves the right to contact references for verification or additional information.

(6) While the Government may elect to consider data from other sources, the burden of providing detailed, current, accurate and complete past performance information rests with the Offeror.

(7) The offeror may also provide an explanation of any past performance problems that may have developed on the projects submitted under Factor 1 and any corrective actions taken. Explanations shall not exceed one (1) double-sided page (or two (2) single-sided pages) in total.

Factor 3- Past Performance proposal shall be submitted in Volume #1 – Technical Proposal as follows:

Tab 3A – CPARS Evaluation, or Attachment JL.14, PPQ, for each submission under Factor 1 Specialized Experience. CPARS evaluations shall be numbered sequentially to correspond with sample submissions detailed under Factor 1.

FACTOR 4: COST MODEL

Organization of Cost Proposal

All cost and pricing information shall be furnished in Volume II- Cost Proposal. The Government will not be responsible for cost or pricing information provided in the Non-Cost Proposal (Technical and Past Performance) but not included in the cost proposal. “Data Other than Certified Cost or Pricing Data” shall be submitted by the Offeror to support cost realism, price reasonableness, and the completeness of the proposal. All “Data Other than Certified Cost or Pricing Data” submitted pursuant to this section is for the exclusive use of the Government. The content and format for submitting cost data shall be in accordance with general format outlined above and Section L Clause entitled, “Cost Proposal Submission Requirements,” as follows:

Tab 4C - COST PROPOSAL WITH SUPPORTING DOCUMENTATION

a. DIRECT LABOR RATE SUBMISSION-ATTACHMENTS JL.1, JL.1A JL.2, and JL.5

Separate rate sheets shall be submitted by the prime or each joint venture member. Note: If the offeror is a JV and the JV members are proposing separate rates, separate rate sheets must be provided by each member of the JV.

ONE SUBMITTAL MAY BE SUBMITTED FOR THE JV ENTITY ONLY IF THE JV HAS AN ESTABLISHED

SEPARATE COST CENTER FOR THE JV ENTITY WITH AN ADEQUATE ACCOUNTING SYSTEM FOR A

COST REIMBURSEMENT CONTRACT.

(1) The labor categories and labor rates identified in Attachment JL.1 will become a part of the contract.

The labor categories and labor rates identified on Attachment JL.1 establish provisional/bid rates for negotiating/establishing baseline costs and maximum ceilings for Direct Labor during the base period and all option periods (if exercised) of the contract. The provisional/bid rates will be used by the Contractor to build their cost proposal at the task order level, and rates billed against specific task orders will be based on the actual labor rates in effect, not to exceed the ceiling rates allowed under the contract on Attachment JL.1.

Ceiling rates shall not exceed 10% above the proposed provisional rate for each contract period, unless approval is obtained in accordance with Section H5-Professional Labor Rates and Escalation Ceilings.

It is noted that the labor categories listed on Attachments JL.1 and JL.1A are for exempt employees (home office, supervisory, and specialty field and UXO personnel). Service Contract Labor Standards (SCA) or Wage Rate

Requirements Construction (DBA) categories are not included. However, it is recognized that the secretary, engineering technician, senior drafter, and drafter labor categories included in JL.1 could be classified as SCA labor categories under an individual task order, when a Service Contract Labor Standards Wage Determination is incorporated into the task order. The SCA and DBA rates used for proposals and billing purposes under individual task orders SHALL REFLECT THE MINIMUM RATES set forth on the applicable wage determination, unless a higher rate is otherwise approved by the Contracting Officer for use under the respective task order(s). The higher rate shall not exceed the SCA or DBA rate plus the applicable wage determination ceiling percent proposed under Attachment JL.5 (incorporated in the contact), for the particular trade, unless an exception is made in accordance with Section H6-Service Contract Labor Standards and Wage Rate Requirements (Construction) Base and Ceiling.

(2) Each prime or JV member shall provide average bid level (including any adjustment for uncompensated overtime -see attachment JL.2) and ceiling labor rates for ALL LABOR CATEGORIES listed on attachment JL.1 and JL.1A., regardless of whether the offeror currently employs personnel in every required category or intends to rely on team members/subcontractors for the particular labor categories. If the contractor/subcontractor does not currently employ an employee(s) under the listed category, a market rate shall be provided. All labor categories listed on JL.1 shall be tied to an internal labor category or categories. If an offeror is planning on using E-levels, then the E-level (i.e. E-1, E-2) also needs to be provided under the Company Equivalent Labor Category on Attachment JL.1.

(3) Offerors SHALL NOT ADD ADDITIONAL labor categories on JL.1. If it is determined that a labor category not listed on JL.1 is required for a task order, the Contract Administrator listed under Section G1-Contract Administration Data, paragraph (c), may approve the labor category and the corresponding bid/ceiling rate for the specific task order and, if applicable, may incorporate the labor category into the basic contract. Additionally, where it is determined necessary to utilize a specific individual on a task order, whose actual labor rate exceeds the established ceiling for the respective labor category, the Contractor will be required to obtain prior written approval from the Contract Administrator listed under Section G1. In the event that such approval is not properly obtained, the Government will only be required to reimburse the Contractor at the ceiling rate established in the contract. See Section H5 Professional Labor Rates and Escalation Ceiling concerning the addition of other labor categories and exceeding labor category ceiling rates.

(4) Attachment JL.1A reflects the escalation rate applied to the direct labor bid rate for Base Period (Year 1 and 2) and each year (Year 3,4, and 5) thereafter under Option Period 1. No additional escalation will be applied to the provisional rates when the option period is exercised. Therefore, offerors should factor escalation into their provisional rates for the Option Period (Years 3, 4, and 5). For each labor category, the Offeror shall enter its escalation factors applied to the provisional rates for each option period on Attachment JL.1A. The offeror shall also provide the basis for any proposed/projected escalation and the assumptions used: forecast source (such as Global Insight), index used (index number and title), calculations (index values used: base and projected values), and dates used (month and year of applicable index numbers). The offeror shall provide copies of the escalation forecasts as support documentation in their proposal.

(5) Cost proposal shall address CEILING RATES FOR SERVICE CONTRACT LABOR STANDARDS AND WAGE RATE REQUIREMENTS (CONSTRUCTION) labor categories by completing ATTACHMENT JL5.

(6) Offerors shall provide the following information to support the proposed direct labor rates:

Offerors shall provide and discuss how the proposed labor rate ceilings on JL.1 were derived. Provide information on the basis of the base rates used to arrive at the ceiling rates, such as whether the base rates were based on actual individual rates for personnel, average or weighted rates for current employees, forward pricing rates, market sources such as Bureau of Labor Statistics or salary.com, or the offeror’s estimate, etc. (Note: Regardless of how the base rate was derived, such as an individual rate, all employees proposed under that Contract Labor Category/Company Equivalent Labor Category will be subject to the proposed ceiling rate.) If a composite labor rate is utilized or a labor rate is prorated over fiscal years, provide the specific details/calculations used to determine the rate. If forward pricing rates apply, provide a copy in Appendix A. Any deviation from forward pricing rates, current rates, etc. shall be clearly documented. Note the percent markup used on the base rates to arrive at the proposed ceiling rate for each labor category. Complete JL.1 showing the base rate for each labor category, percentage markup for each labor category and ceiling rate for the base and option years.

If uncompensated overtime is proposed and used in calculating individual and average labor rates for Fair Labor Standards Act exempt employees listed in Attachment JL.1 and JL.1A, complete, Attachment JL.2 (IDENTIFICATION OF RATIOS) for each affected labor category. Additionally, provide in Appendix B: (1) required information per provision FAR 52.237-10 Identification of Uncompensated Overtime (Mar 2015); (2) historical number of hours in excess of 40 hours per week for each labor category; and (3) evidence of the Defense Contract Audit Agency or Defense Contract Management Agency approval of the corporate policy addressing uncompensated effort.

WORK - (A separate rate sheet shall be submitted by the prime and each joint venture member. A separate rate sheet shall also be provided for unpopulated JVs in which the JV itself has fees/markups.) (NOTE: If the JV has an established separate cost center for the JV entity with an adequate accounting system for a reimbursement contract, one form may be submitted for the JV entity). The indirect ceiling rates proposed will be the maximum allowable rates that can be proposed or billed under task orders issued during the ordering period. These are not bid rates.

Indirect rates proposed for individual task orders may be less and should be in accordance with the offeror’s disclosed estimating system practices and, if applicable, forward pricing rate agreements. Additionally, should actual rates experienced during performance of the contract be lower than the ceiling rates shown, actual rates will be billed. The indirect rate ceilings will be incorporated into the awarded contract as stated under Section H hereto.
