PREPARATION/SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS CONTAINED IN SECTION L.

PROPOSAL SUBMITTAL REQUIREMENTS

Offerors shall submit the following information with their offer:

1) EVALUATION FACTOR - PRICE (VOLUME 1)

a) Proposed price for each Contract Line Item Number (CLIN) in Section B, Schedule of Supplies or Services, of the Standard Form 33 Solicitation document. The offeror shall insert the unit prices and total amount in Section B for the definite item (CLIN 0001), each option items (CLIN 0002, 0003 and 0004) and Time and Material items (0005 and 0006). All prices stated shall be in NET US Dollars inclusive of all applicable charges.

b) Proposed prices for each Work Item Number. The offeror shall submit proposed prices using Solicitation Attachment J- 3, Contractor Price Breakdown, in MS Excel format. Each Work Item Number either must be priced or marked "Not Separately Priced (NSP)".

c) In accordance with the provision at 52.215-20 "Requirements for Certified cost or Pricing Data and Data Other Than Certified Cost or Pricing Data" of this solicitation, the Government may request certified cost or pricing data (as defined in the table 15-2 "Instructions for Submitting Cost/Price Proposals When Certified Cost or Pricing Data Are Required"), data other than certified cost or pricing data, and supporting attachments to be evaluated for adequacy. Upon request, the offeror shall submit a Certificate of Current Cost or Pricing Data, as prescribed by FAR 15.406-2, or demonstrate entitlement to an exemption.

d) Time-and-Material Growth CLIN

i. For the purposes of this price evaluation only, offerors shall use the following Government-provided labor hours and material plug-ins to generate a single, total price for CLIN 0005 and CLIN 0006, the T&M Growth CLINs. The price for CLIN 0005 and CLIN 0006 should be the sum of the Labor and Material prices as calculated below. The labor hours and material plug-ins are hypothetical and have been established to provide a common baseline for a fair and equal comparison of all offerors' proposed labor rates and material handling fees.

1. Estimated Prime Labor Hours: 27,084

2. Estimated Material Costs: $1,937,073.45

ii. Labor

1. Consistent with Section H.8.0 and the provision 52.216-29 "Time-and-Materials/Labor Hour Proposal Requirements - Other Than Commercial Acquisition with Adequate Price Competition" and its alternate of this solicitation, offerors shall propose a single, fully-burdened labor rate for all prime labor to be applied to this availability. The fully burdened labor rate is a fixed hourly rate that includes all wages, overhead, other indirect costs, general and administrative expenses, Facilities Capital Cost of Money (FCCOM) and profit, as well as all costs associated with support functions and consumable materials as defined by H.8.0(e)(4).

2. Offerors will calculate a labor price as the sum of the Proposed Prime Labor Rate x Government Estimated Plug-In Hours.

3. Offerors are advised that proposed labor pricing will be incorporated into Section H.8.0 and serve as a binding ceiling price for all growth work authorized under CLIN 0005.

iii. Materials

1. Offerors shall identify and propose a single material handling percentage (%) that will be applied to the actual, verifiable cost of materials, subcontractor labor/materials, and other direct costs purchased in support of T&M work under CLIN 0006. This material handling percentage should be one rate based on complete allocable indirect costs in accordance with the Contractor's established accounting practices. The Contractor should not propose any additional form of overhead (including G&A), or profit based on material costs.

2. Offerors will calculate a material price for CLIN 0006 to be the sum of the (Offeror's material handling percentage x Government Estimated Material Costs, plus the Government Estimated Material Costs).

3. Offerors are advised that proposed material handling percentage will be incorporated into Section H.8.0 at the time of award and serve as a binding ceiling price for all growth work authorized under CLIN 0006.

iv. Note, any requests for specific clarification or deviation/exception from T&M Growth CLIN proposal submission requirements must be submitted and handled through the Clarification and Deviations process specified in this Section L.

v. Offerors are advised that evaluated price for CLIN 0005 and CLIN 0006 will not be used to establish the final funded value of the T&M CLIN in the awarded contract. Instead, the Government will establish the Not-to-Exceed (NTE) ceiling for CLIN 0005 and CLIN 0006 in the awarded contract based on its independent budget requirements. This budget is derived from historical data for similar ship repair availabilities, which indicates an average growth work requirement of approximately 39% of the Category A work items.

vi. By submitting a proposal, the offeror acknowledges the clear distinction between the hypothetical numbers used for the Government's price evaluation and the methodology used by the Government to establish the final T&M CLIN ceiling value in the awarded contract.

The Government may request certified cost or pricing data, data other than certified cost or pricing data, and supporting attachments to be evaluated for adequacy. Upon request, the offeror shall submit a Certificate of Current Cost or Pricing Data, as prescribed by FAR 15.406-2.

LIQUIDATED DAMAGES

(a) General

In accordance with DFARS clause 252.217-7009 "Default" paragraph (f), if the Contractor fails to complete the work within the time specified, or any extension, in the contract, the Government will suffer damages. These damages include, but are not limited to, extended lodging, meals, and incidental expenses for Government personnel required to remain at the OCONUS performance location.

These actual damages would be difficult to estimate accurately or prove.

Therefore, in lieu of actual damages, the Contractor shall pay the Government liquidated damages for each calendar day of delay (prorated to the nearest hour for fractional days). The current estimated liquidated damages for each calendar day of delay is which uses a blended average per diem rate of possible place of performance locations within the 7th Fleet AOR.$19,994.01

(b) Establishment of Final Rate at Award

This solicitation does not contain a final liquidated damages daily rate. The Contracting Officer will establish the final, fixed daily rate at the time of contract award using the per diem rate of the awarded place of performance.

Prior to award, the Contracting Officer will calculate the liquidated damages daily rate based on the official per diem rate for Place of Performance in effect on the date of award, as published by the U.S. Department of State in the Department of State Standardized Regulations (DSSR), Section 925. The official source for these rates is the Department of State website, currently located at https://allowances.state.gov/web920/per_diem.asp?.

(c) Incorporation into the Contract

The final, calculated daily liquidated damages rate will be referenced in the explanatory note of Section I regarding the liquidated damages rate applicable to the clause DFARS 252.217-7009, Default, in the awarded contract. By submitting an offer, the offeror acknowledges and agrees to this methodology for establishing the liquidated damages rate.

The following clauses were modified:

252.215-7008 Only One Offer. Nov 2022

Date Changed From: Dec 2022 To: Nov 2022

Section M - Evaluation Factors for Award

Miscellaneous text in this section has been modified to:

A. Award will be made to the responsible offeror whose proposal offers the lowest evaluated price and for which all non-price factors are General.

rated as Acceptable in accordance with the established criteria in the solicitation. The Government intends to award one contract as a result of this solicitation. Taking exception to any terms or conditions of this RFP outside of the process for Clarifications and Deviations may deem the offeror unacceptable.

The Government intends to evaluate proposals and award based on initial proposals. Therefore, offerors are cautioned that their initial offer should contain the offeror's best technical and price terms.
