SUMMARY OF CHANGES

SECTION SF 30 - BLOCK 14 CONTINUATION PAGE

The following have been added by full text:

AMENDMENT 0016 Q&A

QUESTION #1: IXI Technology is refusing to provide a quote for the Sabtech VME CCAs (7572009-2 and 7572010-1) and states that they will only provide this material direct to the Government. Is there an alternative source of supply for these items? Or can the Government provide these items to the awarded Offerer as GFM?

RESPONSE: NSWC PHD has discussed with IXI and requested that they provide quotes to vendors in response to Solicitation No. N6339419R0008. Offerors should cite Solicitation No. N6339419R0008 for reference in their requests for quotes to IXI.

QUESTION #2: Please provide the following missing drawings: 7909210, 7957160, 903654 and 903662.

RESPONSE: The drawings will be provided to all JCP-registered requestors via AMRDEC SAFE.

QUESTION #3: Can the Government please resend drawing 7384606? The initial version provided with Amendment 0013 is incomplete (cropped).

RESPONSE: This type of drawing (a wire tabulation) typically has very thin margins and it appears that this particular one has thinner than normal margins. The margins may be thin, but all of the required information is visible.

QUESTION #4: We cannot source Control No: 7956732-01, MFG: Sandstrom, MFGPN: POXYLUBE420. The manufacturer said they no longer manufacture this product and there is no replacement. This part is called out in 7382270-02 FN5 and 7382266-02 FN6. Has an alternate been identified for this in an NOR?

RESPONSE: MIL-A-907 anti-seize compound is a valid substitute for 7956732-01. The Government will generate the NOR to document the substitution, which will be provided to the awardee.

QUESTION #5: We have attempted to obtain a quotation for the required VxWorks 6.x Runtime Licenses P/N 540- 183749 from Wind River. Wind River will not provide us with a quotation without (a) the development site and (b) the development license number. Wind River was unable to find traceability for any development license for the Port Hueneme location or its program(s). The point of contact at Wind River is requesting the above feedback from the Government prior to providing us a quotation.

RESPONSE: The Government has provided the required information to the point of contact at Wind River.

Offerors should now be able to request and obtain quotes from Wind River for P/N 540-183749.

Duplicated information within a given factor may be included in full once and referenced thereafter, as long as there is a clear reference to the duplicated information.

2.2.1 Paper Format:

Each volume shall be bound separately and shall not exceed the page limitation cited above. Each volume of the proposal shall be bound in three ring binders to permit removal of sections with each major part tabbed. The Offeror’s company name shall appear at the top of each page in the header section. Legibility, clarity, and compliance with the requirements of the solicitation are essential. Failure to provide the requested information may adversely affect the Government’s evaluation of the Offeror.

The electronic proposal shall be prepared so that if printed, the proposal it meets the following format requirements: The material in all volumes of the Offeror’s proposal shall be typed or printed in a font with the type no smaller than size 12 Times New Roman font on standard 8-1/2 by 11-inch paper. Text line spacing shall be one line. One-inch margins on each side, including top and bottom are required. Text within tables, diagrams, pictorial charts, or graphic material may use 8-point font. Fold-out pages may be used for diagrams, charts or graphic material only and may not exceed 11 inches by 17 inches. Fold-out pages will be counted as two pages;

double-sided fold-out pages will be counted as four pages.

Unless otherwise specified, fold out pages may only include narrative sufficient to describe the diagram, chart or graphic material. Every figure and table shall be numbered. Paragraphs shall be clearly formatted. Proposal material shall be presented on double-sided pages only. Each double-sided page counts as two pages.

A date shall be placed on each page of the proposal corresponding to the date of the initial proposal in the footer section. Any pages that may be revised as a result of discussions or correspondence (if required) shall contain revision numbers and dates.

The page count shall include all material (printed matter and figures) except where explicitly stated and does not include cover pages, title pages, Table of Contents (TOC), lists of figures and tables, tab pages, index pages, Integrate Master Schedule, Glossary of Abbreviations and Acronyms, and the Cross Reference Matrix (CRM).

Pages excluded from the page count must contain only material pertinent to the page heading or be blank and marked "Intentionally Left Blank." Index pages and Tabs are required and shall be cross-referenced to the TOC.

Every page, except those marked as blank, shall be numbered. Pages exceeding the page count shall be removed from the end of the volume that exceeds the page count and will not be evaluated.

The Offeror shall submit a CRM for the Technical Volume, similar to the example below to help ensure that all solicitation requirements are addressed and to facilitate the evaluators’ review of the Offeror’s proposal. The CRM should be a single integrated matrix and cross-reference the proposal volumes and paragraphs to specific solicitation requirements, as well as other parts of the proposal that contain relevant information. The Offeror’s CRM may be identical to the example below or revised such as to add columns to indicate the page number on which information may be found, identify where other relevant information in the proposal is located, or provide other comments.

Each factor and volume shall be written to the greatest extent possible on a stand-alone basis so that its content may be evaluated with a minimum of cross-referencing to other factors and volumes of the proposal. Cross-referencing within a given factor is permitted where its use would conserve space without impairing clarity. In the event an Offeror decides to cross reference information, it is the responsibility of the Offeror to include the information in full and provide clear references to that information in other portions of the factor where the Offeror would like the evaluators to consider any duplicated information. Nevertheless, Offerors are reminded of their burden to present its capability in a manner that is clear for evaluators.

FACTOR 3: TOTAL EVALUATED PRICE

Offerors shall submit a complete price proposal, which addresses all information required to evaluate the pricing proposed for each Contract Line Item Number (CLIN), except CLIN 0002, including pricing within CLIN 0001, 0003 and Option CLINs 1001-4001 and 1002-4002. The price proposal shall be a separate volume from the technical (non-price) proposal. It is expected that the resulting contract will be awarded based upon a determination that there is adequate price competition; therefore, the Offeror is not required to submit or certify cost and/or pricing data with their proposal, however data other than certified cost data or pricing data is required to be submitted. If after receipt of proposals, the Contracting Officer determines that adequate price competition does not exist in accordance with FAR 15.403-1 or that only one offer is received, the Offeror shall provide certified cost and/or pricing data as requested by the Contracting Officer.

The price and cost summaries provided in Volume II must not conflict with the data submitted in Section B schedules. In the event of a discrepancy, prices found in the filled-out Section B shall be utilized.

Volume II shall contain the Offeror’s understanding of and approach to the pricing requirements of the solicitation.

The pricing portion of the proposal shall include:

a. Pricing spreadsheets for all CLINs, for all items (with options) as described in Section B. Spreadsheets shall be in Microsoft Excel format with cells containing working formulas that are visible for Government examination of price buildup and methodology.

b. Basis of Estimate (BOE) narrative in Microsoft Word for each CLIN. The BOE narrative shall include estimating methodologies for each proposed priced CLIN.

Pricing Support Information:

Offerors shall provide the following information in support of all Section B Firm-Fixed-Price (FFP) CLINs requiring pricing, inclusive of all option items:

a. The Offeror shall submit its price summaries in accordance with the Offeror’s accounting structure for the first unit of each FFP line item. The Offeror’s proposal shall provide complete visibility by calendar year (or the Offeror’s calendar year) labor hours, labor costs, material costs, other direct costs, indirect costs, and profit. The Offeror shall provide detailed analysis to support the proposed FFP pricing at each quantity amount and the adjustments made from the first unit pricing (i.e. production labor learning reductions, quantity reductions, escalation.

b. For each major subcontract the Offeror shall provide a list which includes:

i. Subcontractor name, address, email, and telephone number;

ii. Subcontractor CAGE code;

iii. Description of supplies/services to be subcontracted;

iv. Information as to whether the subcontractor has held any Government contracts/subcontracts;

v. Place(s) of contract performance;

vi. Estimated dollar amount of the subcontract;

vii. Type of contract (FFP, Cost Plus Fixed Fee, etc.);

viii. Basis for determining that the proposed subcontractor pricing is fair and reasonable.

c. Provide any price estimating methodology applied to generate pricing. This includes, but is not limited to, price interpolation, escalation, curving, etc.;

d. Any inconsistency, whether real or apparent, between proposed performance and actual performance for similar work (cost and schedule), shall be explained in the proposal. For example, if the intended use of new and innovative production techniques is the basis for an abnormally low estimate or short manufacturing schedule, the nature of these techniques and their impact on cost shall be explained or, if a corporate policy decision has been made to absorb a portion of the estimated cost, that shall be stated in the proposal. Any significant inconsistency, if unexplained, may be grounds for determining that the proposal is unacceptable. The burden of proof as to cost credibility rests with the Offeror.

SMALL BUSINESS SUBCONTRACTING PLAN: Large Business Offerors under the applicable NAICS code are required to submit a Subcontracting Plan in accordance with L-219-H001 SUBMISSION OF SMALL BUSINESS SUBCONTRACTING PLAN (NAVSEA) (JAN 2019).
