l. Factor 1, Ability to Manage Multiple Simultaneous Projects (completed Exhibit A – Offeror Team Composition and Management)

Representations and Certifications, Financial Questionnaires, and Surety Forms will not be evaluated. However, they will be considered in assessing the Offeror’s responsibility.

Instructions for electronic submission of proposals are provided below:

Proposals shall be submitted electronically via email to the Contract Specialist, Ted Reed, ted.l.reed.civ@us.navy.mil and Copy the Contracting Officer, Siouzann Lende, siouzann.r.lende.civ@us.navy.mil.

Offerors are instructed to electronically submit their complete proposal in one (1) single file, formatted in Portable Document Format (PDF) with a .pdf file extension.

The date and time of the received proposal submission via email shall govern the timeliness of any proposal submission.

LATE SUBMISSIONS WILL NOT BE CONSIDERED.

It is an Offeror’s responsibility, when transmitting its proposal electronically, to ensure the proposal’s timely delivery by transmitting the proposal sufficiently in advance of the time set for receipt of proposals to allow for timely receipt by the Government no later than the date and time stated in Block 13 of the SF1442. Offerors shall allow adequate time to upload files, which may be slower for non-DoD users, and to avoid other technical difficulties that may be encountered. An Offeror risks the late receipt and rejection of a proposal where it delays transmitting its proposal until the last few minutes before the time set for receipt of proposals. Proposals that are received after the stated date and time in Block 13 of the SF1442 will not be considered.

Offerors are responsible for submitting their proposal in the format specified, consistent with requirements stated elsewhere in this RFP. Offerors are asked to submit only the information/exhibits required. Page limits, if stipulated, must be adhered to. Files that cannot be opened, or are otherwise missing the required content are the responsibility of the Offeror.

Offerors are asked to submit only the information/exhibits required. Do not submit any additional information such as brochures, CDs, or other pre-printed materials.

2. Pre-Proposal Conference

(a) A pre proposal conference and site visit will be conducted at NSWC PHD Bldg 1388 on 11 April 2023 at 10:00 AM PST. If an offeror is interested in attending the Site Visit they shall email the COR, Miguel Alamo, miguel.alamo4.civ@us.navy.mil and “cc” the Contract Specialist, Ted Reed, ted.l.reed.civ@us.navy.mil no later than 03 April 2023 to register as well as submitting a Base Access Form SECNAV5512 (Attachment 7).

(b) Failure of a prospective Offeror to submit any questions will be construed to mean that the Offeror fully understands all requirements of the RFP.

(c) All prospective Offerors are advised that this RFP will remain unchanged unless it is amended in writing.

Amendments will be posted on the SAM.gov website at https://sam.gov under Contract Opportunities. However, if an amendment is issued, normal procedures relating to the acknowledgment and receipt of any such amendment as described in Contract Clause “Amendment to RFPs” of this section shall be applicable.

3. Financial Questionnaire The Offeror shall submit the Financial Questionnaire (Exhibit D) to their financial institution and request the financial institution complete the questionnaire with regard to the Offeror’s firm. Please ensure the financial institution utilizes the form provided in order to submit the requested information. Links to websites and/or files with .zip file extensions may not be accepted. Additionally, please ensure financial questionnaires are submitted with proposal.

If the Offeror is a joint venture, information should be submitted for the joint venture. If there is no information for the joint venture, information should be submitted for each joint venture partner.

4. Surety Form The Offeror shall submit the Surety Form to report their surety bonding information, verifying aggregate bonding capacity, current available bonding, as well as single project limit. Ensure the name of the Offeror’s surety, including the name and phone number of the Offeror’s agent within the surety, is on the form.

If the Offeror is a joint venture, the Offeror shall submit one Surety Form for the joint venture, not the individual joint venture members.

5. System for Award Management Offerors, including Joint Ventures, must be registered in SAM at the time an offer is submitted. If an Offeror does not have an active registration in SAM at the time an offer is submitted, the Offeror is ineligible for award.

Processing time should be taken into consideration when registering. Offerors who are not registered in SAM should consider applying for registration immediately upon receipt of this RFP. Offerors must also maintain their SAM registration until time of award, during contract performance, and through final payment. See https://sam.gov for information on registration.

Remember to review the NAICS codes listed in your SAM record and make sure that you have listed the NAICS code for this procurement.

NOTE: SAM registrations are taking much longer for approval. This is especially true for newly formed Joint Ventures. Prospective Offerors are highly encouraged to start the SAM registration immediately.

6. Representations and Certifications In order to participate on this RFP, Contractors must also complete electronic representations and certifications. For more information and to complete the electronic Reps & Certs, see the SAM website at https://sam.gov. Remember to review the NAICS codes listed in your SAM record and make sure that you have listed the NAICS code for this procurement.

Note: Offerors must complete and submit Section 00 45 00 of the RFP as part of their proposal even if the Offeror is registered in SAM. Section 00 45 00 of the RFP contains clauses which are not found in the electronic Reps & Certs in SAM; therefore, we require them to be completed and submitted as part of your proposal. The clauses found in Section 00 45 00 of the RFP are also broken out as a separate form titled “Section 00 45 00 – Representations and Certifications” which can be found with the other RFP Exhibits.

7. Federal Contractor Reporting In accordance with FAR 22.13, any Contractor or Subcontractor with a contract or subcontract with the Federal Government of $150,000 or more that was entered into on or after October 1, 2015 (or $100,000 or more that was entered prior to October 1, 2015) must take affirmative action to hire and promote qualified covered veterans which includes, special disabled veterans, veterans of the Vietnam-era, recently separated veterans, and any other veterans who served on active duty during a war or in a campaign or expedition for which a campaign badge has been authorized.

If subject to the reporting requirements, companies must file an annual VETS-4212 Report, which shows the number of covered veterans in their workforce and number of new hires, including covered veterans hired during the reporting period. Instructions, information, and follow-up assistance is provided at VETS-4212 Internet site at https://www.dol.gov/agencies/vets/programs/vets4212 or employers may contact the VETS-4212 customer support at (866) 237-0275 or e-mail at vets4212-customersupport@dolncc.dol.gov.

VETS-4212 Reports must be filed between August 1 and September 30 of each year following a calendar year (CY) in which a Contractor or Subcontractor held a covered contract or subcontract.

Upon the successful submission of a VETS-4212 report, Federal Contractors will receive an email confirmation of receipt notification for their records. Offerors shall include a copy of their confirmation notification email in their proposal as verification of submission for the current reporting period. DO NOT SUBMIT A COPY OF

THE REPORT ITSELF. If this requirement is not applicable to your firm, provide a statement that your firm does not have any contracts subject to this requirement.

A contract cannot be awarded to a Contractor that has not submitted a required annual form VETS-4212, Federal Contractor Veterans’ Employment Report (VETS-4212 Report) if subject to the reporting requirements of 38 U.S.C. 4212(d) for that fiscal year.

8. Incurred Expenses The Government is not responsible for any costs incurred or associated with preparation and submission of a proposal in response to this RFP.

9. No Alternate or Multiple Proposals Neither multiple proposals, nor proposal variations or options, nor alternate or alternative proposals will be considered in the evaluation.

30 CONSTRUCTION WAGE RATE REQUIREMENTS – PRICE ADJUSTMENT (NONE OR SEPARATELY

SPECIFIED METHOD) (MAY 2014), any changes in the applicable minimum hourly rates of wages during the entire term of the contract including any option years shall not affect the unit price to be paid by the Government for work performed under this contract. A current Davis Bacon Wage Determination will be incorporated into each Task Order. More information on the DOL and SCA wage determinations can be found at https://sam.gov.

12. Mentor Protégé Agreements (MPA) Only MPAs formally approved by the SBA will be considered for this procurement. MPAs approved by other agencies will not be considered.
