AMENDMENT 2

QUESTIONS & ANSWERS

1. The CLIN 0006/0006AA “Module Cable Set” & CLIN 0011/0011AA “Module Deck & Hatch Cable Set” both have the same 8407428-29 p/n even though each set (37 vs 10) is made up of different p/ns. If not, please advise correct p/n of the kit.

Answer: Review the Material List Enclosure for the kit contents and part numbers listed.

2. Is NSWC-PHD working this solicitation as a WINNER TAKE ALL in terms of all CLINs /SLINS 0001

THRU 0038 as 1 bid for 1 supplier to win? This would be very hard to do otherwise since many of the

“SETS” share common p/ns and common materials with other “SETS”. The “sets” are the 13 different named “sets” in the NSWC files provided. Of course, we will price all 13 “sets” as requested but in the end it is considered an entire packaged bid.

Answer: The Government's intent to award one contract for CLINs/SLINs 0001 - 0038.

3. Regarding progress payments, if a contractor does not have a DCMA/DCAA approved accounting system and is only seeking financial support for purchases of materials only (given the large $$$ amount of material and that cables have to be delivered as kits), can this SOL allow for progress payments of materials at cost w/o any mark ups? A contractor can provide detailed excel files as materials are received monthly and copies of supplier invoices and pictorial evidence of material on site (if DCMA does not do a physical verification). Since this is a small business set aside, the financial commitment to pay for materials so far in advance of delivery necessitates this request.

Answer: See amendment 1; It is the Government's intent to award with progress payments terms and conditions. Only vendors with approved accounting systems may receive Progress Payments. If the awardee doesn't have an approved accounting system, the awardee can work with DCAA to obtain approval.

4. Given the inflationary period we are in and especially the large fluctuations in raw materials such as copper

(for all the wires), how is NSWC expecting to have FFP bids for the option years which if the 4th year is exercised, can be 45 months from 1/5/2022 plus the time to do the work which could be another year, which could be 5 years from 1/22? Can we provide a possible % increase based on the rise in raw materials?

Answer: It is the vendor's responsibility to price their options CLINs.

5. Can NSWC please reconsider the very short due date extension of 2 weeks for the new date of 10/26? This is a massive RFQ and the time to collect costs, estimate pricing, do the write up of the proposal notes, is substantial. Can this be extended to COB Monday 11/15/21?

Answer: The Government grants a two-week extension for final proposal submission from 26 October

2021 to 09 November 2021.

AMENDMENT 3

1. Continuing delays in receiving quotes from a number of critical sole source and dedicated VLS component suppliers including on the wire due to issues with TE and their QPL status. Also the amount of time to complete the requirements of reports and data for the bid is a large effort. I am sorry but this size of the bid warrants a larger extension / original realistic lead time to submit a compliant and complete proposal given the $ value.

Can this quote be extended until 12/13/21?

Answer: The Government does not concur with the extension.

AMENDMENT 4

1. Will your team reconsider that an extension will be granted to mid December.

Answer: Extension granted until 13 December 2021.

AMENDMENT 5

1. Could the government please provide the VLS Configuration Management Plan, TL130-AD-PLN-010-

VLS for the subject RFP?

Answer: TL130-AD-PLN-010-VLS, Configuration Management Plan document is attached.

2. Since we do not know how long it will take for NSWC to review and present the answers via a MOD P5 to the RFQ, we ask that the current due date of 12/13/21 per Amend P4 be extended further until 01/07/22 given the upcoming holidays. Many of these questions are critical to the costs associated with determining prices to submit to the customer. Once answers are provided then time will be needed to then incorporate the data and the applicable scope of work into our costs.

Answer: Due to upcoming requirement, the Government cannot extend any longer. The solicitation will close on 12/13/2021.

3. For the option CLINs that have ranges of quantities, does NSWC-PHD want 1 single price for the range

(example if 1-4 kits, does NSWC want $1 regardless of qty or can we provide a quote for different prices depending on the qtys withing that range?

Answer: The pricing should be provided base on the range of quantities as indicated for stepladder pricing.

4. For the option CLINs, will each kit be funded/awarded at the same time in each option Year or will the Kits be independently awarded with only some be exercised at all or at different times during the Option Year?

For example, in Option Year 1 would all 9 Sets be awarded? Is PHD’s funding a package where the Option year is the entire group of cable sets for that particular year or is each Set its own customer? We know that the Base Year all Sets listed will be awarded together.

Answer: The Government reserves the right to exercise option CLINs that will satisfy the Government's requirement at the time of option exercising.

5. For the UID requirement for all CDRLs, does PHD want each assembly within the cable set to have its own

UID AND a UID for the entire Kit? How will that work if the Cable set can be over 100 boxes? Does the customer want the pallet to have the cable Set UID on it while each pn box have their own UID per p/n?

Please clarify. If a UID for the cable set, how will that work w/o a part number for the set since all are words as the description? Per SOW 12.1- please confirm that PHD Will assign serial #s rather than the contractor. Which serial #s? Of each cable assembly and or of the Cable Sets? Will each cable set have to be serialized? For example, if the BY, there are 32 of the Module Cable Set, will PHD want each Cable Set to have their own unique serial # and that serial # will in turn be tied to each of cables with the kit and their respective serial #s?

Answer: UID labels are required for cables that have that requirement on the drawing. The UID label is applied directly to the cable IAW the drawing. Kits and boxes do not get UIDs. The Navy will not assign

Serial Numbers.

6. Regarding SOW 4.1 ATE- what is the type of test equipment that PHD will provide? Name of the manufacturer and system name of equipment? How many ATEs will be provided? Will interface test cables be provided to connect the cable assembly under test to the ATE? Will ATE be provided for both the copper wire cables and a different piece of ATE for the fiber optic cables? Can the contractor make a request to NSWC-PHD for which ATE cable tester is purchased? Vendor already makes a large portion of the se p/ns and has a dedicated testers (ATE) and interface test harnesses made. If we are provided the same mfr / system of the ATE we use then we can interchange the test cables and programs rather than having different mfrs of the ATE and possibly different interface connectors.

Answer: If the vendor can meet the test requirements IAW the TDP using their test equipment and test cables, they are free to use those assets for ATE.

7. Regarding SOW 4.2 FAI. Will PHD require delivery of the actual FA unit with a AS9102 FA report for approval? If so, will there be any type of fit/electrical tests at PHD? Or will PHD only require delivery of the FA report?

Answer: FAI is a contractor activity, the Government reserves the right to witness any inspection and review the FAI Report.

8. Regarding SOW 7.0 GSI. Does “GSI at the convenience of the government” mean that the contract will have DCMA as the administrator so the entire contract is subject to DCMA source or will NSWC-PHD choose on its own to invoke its right to GSI on a case by case basis? The SOL has section E-246-W007 on page 75- how does this apply if it is not clear if GSI will be required all the time versus “at the convenience of the government”.

Answer: The Government intends to delegate the administration of this contract to DCMA.

9. Regarding SOW 8.0 Environmental Testing. Please clarify how this will be done by the USG for cable assemblies?

Answer: The vendor shall follow the requirements as specified by the TDP, if applicable.

10. Regarding SOW 12.3 for Substitute sources of supply. Please clarify if a drawing is “Suggested sources” only, the contractor must get permission from PHD to use another suggested source.

Answer: Yes, qualification plan must be submitted to the US Navy, Approved by the US Navy and the results of the qualification must meet the requirements. When all requirements are met, the US Navy will add that source as a suggested source of supply.

11. Regarding SOW 16.1 PRR. The CLINs 0034 ,0035,0036, 0037 & 0038 are or a quantity of 1 but this 16.1 section of the SOW states PRRs will be done quarterly. Is this per each Base year and Option? Is the “1” to cover all PRRs on a quarterly basis per BY and option Year?

Answer: The CLINs covers BY and each option year. PRR will occur quarterly until the delivery is completed.

12. A) With regards to progress payments, where is the SOL is this identified? We only see it discussed in

Amendment 0001:

Answer: It is the Government's intent to award with progress payments terms and conditions. Therefore, the solicitation includes progress payment clauses: 52.232-16 (Dev) Progress Payments (DEVIATION 2020-

O0010) JUN 2020, 252.232-7004 (Dev) DoD Progress Payment Rates (DEVIATION 2020-O0010) MAR

2020, and 252.232-7016. Only vendors with approved accounting systems may receive Progress Payments.

B) If a contractor obtains DCAA approval for a cost accounting system AFTER being issued the contract for this solicitation, can the contractor be able to request progress payments for the contract for work already performed as well as for the duration of the contract?

Answer: The contract will be modified to add Progress Payment after DCAA approval. DCMA will administer the Progress Payment.

13. Where / When did NSWC provide these 3 documents? We do not see them in the CD sent to us with all the drawings? Can these 3 documents please be sent? 1) TL130-AD-PLN-010-VLS--Configuration

Management Program Plan for the MK 41 VLS, Volume 1, Equipment (Hardware) Configuration

Management. 2) MK 41 VLS Standing Instruction 94-1F, Attachment 6-- Marking for Technical Data, 3)

TL130-AD-PLN-030-VLS-- Firmware Configuration Management.

Answer: TL130-AD-PLN-010, TL130-AD-PLN-030, and MK41 VLS Standing Instructions 94-1F are attached.

14. Please confirm that someone from NSWC fills out this J-S-1 Past Performance Questionnaire since it states

“FROM ASSESSOR INFO”. How do we have responsibility to have this submitted when the bid is due if we are not the ones to fill it out? Where are the instructions for where / to whom we send this to?

Answer: It is the responsibility of the vendor to send the request to whoever the vendor would like to provide the assessment.

15. As we are working on the Proposal content, question concerning Section 2.3 for "Disposition of Technician

Data Package (TDP) and Technical Drawings. This is a complicated request since vendor already has the vast majority of the TDP from previous contracts and data provided by NSWC and the USG. We cannot destroy what we already had prior to this RFQ so destroying the CD provided would only cover this TDP yet we already have most of the documents since we have been many of these p/ns before and have all the component drawings, PLs, NORs on file. Please advise how we are to “destroy” a duplicate copy of what we have already been provided and the requested certification statement. I am not sure if this would be taking an exception to this RFP flow down. Please provide direction.

Answer: The vendor can send the CD back to the Government for disposal. The vendor is under no obligation as a result of this solicitation to delete data/drawings that it already has in its possession.

16. N6339421R0016 AMD 4, Page 122 of 136, Section L, Section 2.3, Disposition of TDP and Technical

Drawings states that Offerors should not transfer the data by any means to a third party. In this case, can an

Offeror provide access to the TDP to its subcontractor’s with whom it is seeking quotes? And if that is not possible, does this mean every subcontractor of every Prime Offeror has to request a TDP CD from PHD?

Answer: Due to the distribution statement on the TDP, contractor can share the drawings with vendors who has JCP.

AMENDMENT 1

1. Question: We are asking if this public file “N6339421R0016 J-3 Material Part List Enclosure” that we downloaded, be sent as an excel file and not a PDF?

Answer: Material Part List Enclosure excel file will be provided.

2. Question: Our question is in regards to past performance. The Solicitation states the following “In addition to references for the prime, the Offeror shall also submit one Past Performance Reference for each proposed subcontract valued at 10% or more of their total proposed price.” What if our company does not have contracts of equal value to the proposed requirement? However, we have performed the same requirements but in a much lower scale.

Answer: The relevancy evaluation considers many factors or elements. The dollar value or size of previous contracts is only one factor.

3. Question: Expected Award date for BASE YEAR contract once the bid closes on 10/12/21?

Answer: See Page 83 of 132. For proposal purposes the estimated date of task order award is 05 January

2022.

4. Question: What does “AOE” for Delivery Info section starting on page 76 of SOL?

Answer: After Option Exercised (AOE). Used in Line Item Detail to define a delivery date for an option line item.

5. Question: Does the SOL allow for upfront $ at time of contract award and or performance based payments for material receipts by a supplier on a monthly basis? If not, can it, given that this is for small businesses and the $ value will be very large and that the cables are to be delivered in kits, which makes for longer time to collect payment.

Answer: It is the Government's intent to award with progress payments terms and conditions. Therefore, the solicitation includes progress payment clauses: 52.232-16 (Dev) Progress Payments (DEVIATION 2020-

O0010) JUN 2020, 252.232-7004 (Dev) DoD Progress Payment Rates (DEVIATION 2020-O0010) MAR

2020, and 252.232-7016. Only vendors with approved accounting systems may receive Progress Payments.

6. Question: Can the due date be extended given how little time is being offered to review so much data?

Answer: The Government grants a two-week extension for final proposal submission from 12 October

2021 to 26 October 2021.

7. Question: Per earlier request for an extension for the submittal date, is this being considered? 4 weeks is not enough time for the scope of work for costing, quoting plus the time for the substantial write ups for proposal notes.

Answer: The Government grants a two-week extension for final proposal submission from 12 October

2021 to 26 October 2021.

Section B - Supplies or Services and Prices

NOTE A,B,C

NOTE A

Stepladder Pricing. Stepladder pricing is utilized in this solicitation to provide Offerors an opportunity to propose different pricing for separate quantity ranges within applicable Contract Line Items (CLINs). Price evaluation of step ladder CLINs will utilize a randomly selected quantity. Notwithstanding the option to propose different unit pricing for different quantities, the Offeror may propose the same unit price for all quantities.

For all option CLINs with stepladder pricing, the Government may unilaterally exercise a given line item more than once. Option CLINs with stepladder pricing may be exercised until the total quantity purchased equals the maximum quantity listed for that option CLIN in Section B.

NOTE C

MAXIMUM QUANTITY MULTIPLE OPTION QUANTITY CLINS

CLINs, SLINs or other provisions in this contract set forth option quantities associated with option exercise periods.

Offerors should use those estimated quantities for planning purposes and in the preparation of its proposals including its price proposal. After award of the contract the Government may need to move quantity between these option CLINs. The contract resulting from this solicitation will have a maximum dollar value or a maximum number of units that may be purchased. The Government, may, through contract modification, move quantities of items labor or estimated costs between the option CLINs as long as the contract maximum is not exceeded.

If pricing varies by option exercise period the pricing applicable is the pricing applicable when the option is exercised. For example, items moved from option year four to option year one will be payable at the rates applicable to option year one.

CLAUSES INCORPORATED BY FULL TEXT

B-215-H002 REFUNDS (SPARES AND SUPPORT EQUIPMENT) (NAVSEA) (OCT 2018)

(a) In the event that the price of a spare part or item of support equipment delivered under this contract significantly exceeds its intrinsic value, the Contractor agrees to refund the difference. Refunds will not be made to recoup the amount of cost decreases that occur over time due to productivity gains (excluding economic purchase quantity considerations) or changes in market conditions.

(b) For purposes of this requirement, the intrinsic value of an item is defined as follows:

(1) If the item is one which is sold or is substantially similar or functionally equivalent to one that is sold in substantial quantities to the general public, intrinsic value is the established catalog or market price, plus the value of any unique requirements, including delivery terms, inspection, packaging, or labeling.

(2) If there is no comparable item sold in substantial quantities to the general public, intrinsic value is defined as the price an individual would expect to pay for the item based upon an economic purchase quantity as defined in FAR

52.207-4, plus the value of any unique requirements, including delivery terms, inspection, packaging or labeling.

(c) At any time up to two years after delivery of a spare part or item of support equipment, the Contracting Officer may notify the Contractor that based on all information available at the time of the notice, the price of the part or item apparently exceeds its intrinsic value.

(d) If notified in accordance with paragraph (c) above, the Contractor agrees to enter into good faith negotiations with the Government to determine if, and in what amount, the Government is entitled to a refund.

(e) If agreement pursuant to paragraph (d) above cannot be reached, and the Navy's return of the new or unused item to the Contractor is practical, the Navy, subject to the Contractor's agreement, may elect to return the item to the Contractor.

Upon return of the item to its original point of Government acceptance, the Contractor shall refund in full the price paid.

If no agreement pursuant to paragraph (d) above is reached, and return of the item by the Navy is impractical, the

Contracting Officer may, with the approval of the Head of the Contracting Activity, issue a Contracting Officer's final decision on the matter, subject to Contractor appeal as provided in the "Disputes" clause (FAR 52.233-1).

(f) The Contractor shall make refunds, as required under this requirement, in accordance with instructions from the

Contracting Officer.

(g) The Contractor shall not be liable for a refund if the Contractor advised the Contracting Officer in a timely manner that the price it would propose for a spare part or item of support equipment exceeded its intrinsic value, and with such advice, specified the estimated proposed price, the estimated intrinsic value and known alternative sources or item, if any, that can meet the requirement.

(h) This requirement does not apply to any spare parts or items of support equipment whose price is determined through adequate price competition. This requirement also does not apply to any spare part or item of support equipment if the

Contractor submitted, and certified the currency, accuracy and completeness of, cost or pricing data applicable to the item.
