Q20: The Table of Labor Categories and Hours cited on pages 5 and 6 of the RFP differ from the Labor Categories cited on pages 14-19 of the RFP. Please clarify which Labor Categories should be utilized.

A20: The Table of Labor Categories and Hours has been revised per this amendment. All labor categories and hours are determined to be clear.

Q21: The Labor Category for Key Personnel, Program Manager, as defined in the SOW on pages 14-15 of the RFP references Target Education of Bachelor's degree in Marine/Mechanical Engineering from an accredited College or University. Given the Target Experience cites managing personnel which provide engineering and technical support for U.S. Navy electrical generation and distribution systems and equipment, would the Government also include a Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering for the Target Education?

A21: Section C, Statement of Work, paragraph 5.2.1 has been amended.

Q22: The Labor Category for Key Personnel, Senior Engineer, identifies a Minimum Education as a Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering or Mechanical Engineering. Would the Government consider amending the RFP to add Marine Engineering as an additional acceptable degree for this labor category?

A22: No, the work required under the SOW for this solicitation is Electrical and Mechanical in nature and will require either an Electrical Engineer or Mechanical Engineer to perform the work.

Q23: The Table of Labor Categories and Hours cited on pages 5 and 6 of the RFP include Roman numerals for some positions. The Department of Labor uses this form of notation to accommodate varying levels of experience or seniority within a labor category. Is it the Government’s intent that personnel in labor categories with a Roman numeral notation are expected meet the Department of Labor standards? None of the labor category titles listed in RFP paragraphs C.5.2.1 through 5.3.17 include such notations. Request the Government clarify.

A23: The Labor Category Table has been revised and references to Roman Numeral notations have been removed. The Labor Categories are now considered clear per this amendment.

Q24: Which of the DOL labor standards is applicable to this solicitation, the Service Contract Labor Standards or the Walsh-Healy Public Contracts Act?

A24: Neither is applicable to this solicitation.

Q25: Section B of the RFP provides an anticipated Level of Effort (LOE) of 565,650 man hours.

Are Offerors who propose to perform all portions of the Section C SOW mandated to offer on the estimated LOE of 565,650 hours for the to the labor categories delineated in Section B of the

RFP?

A25: Yes, Offerors shall offer on the LOE stated in the RFP. Offerors proposing less than the entire LOE specified within the RFP shall be determined unacceptable. The solicitation has been amended for clarification.

Q26: Page 14 of the RFP, Section C, Paragraph 5.2.2 Senior Engineer cites 2 resumes and page 41, Section H, Clause 5252.237-9106(A0 cites 1 resume for Senior Engineer, please clarify.

A26: Only 1 resume is to be submitted for the Key Personnel Position of Senior Engineer. The solcitation has been amended to reflect this update.

Q27: The RFP includes two labor categories specific to Landing Craft Air Cushioned vehicles (LCAC): Senior LCAC Engineering Technician VI and LCAC Engineering Technician V.

Paragraphs C.5.2.5 and C.5.3.13 provide education and experience requirements for each position. There is nothing in the statement of work that is specifically related to LCACs.

Request the government identify which elements of the statement of work apply to electrical power and generation systems installed on LCACs?

A27: The SOW has been revised per this amendment and is now considered clear. See SOW Paragraph 3.6.

Q28: Would the Government consider increasing the years experience for Program Manager, and Senior technical positions to a target of 10 years?

A28: No, five years’ experience is sufficient for these positions.

Q29: Would the Government accept 4 years of applicable experience as a substitution for an Engineering Degree or Military School Graduation?

A29: No, the Government requires an Engineering Degree or Military School Graduation, where applicable in the SOW.

The following questions pertain to the Technical Proposal and Sections L & M of the Solicitation:

Q30: Is it acceptable for offerors to include key personnel resumes in an Appendix to the Technical Proposal?

A30: Page 93, Section L, Paragraph 2, states: "the entire technical proposal shall not exceed thirty (30) pages in length, not including Resumes." Therefore, Resumes shall be submitted under separate cover from the technical proposal which may be entitled Appendix. Please note that anything other than Resumes or disclosure data included in the Appendix shall not be evaluated or considered for award.

Q31: Section L, on page 94 of 106, States: “The technical proposal must provide details concerning what the Contractor will do and how it will be done. This includes a full explanation of the techniques, disciplines, and procedures proposed to be followed.” However, the Section L subfactors do not delineate a specific requirement to provide a technical approach on how the offeror proposes to perform the work delineated in the Section C statement of work. Request to know if the verbiage on page 94 of 106 refers to a full explanation of the techniques, disciplines and procedures the offeror proposes to meet the requirements of Subfactor 1B paragraph b. (i.e.

how the offeror plans to facilitate the Statement of Work tasks and execution and monitoring of performance from a management standpoint) or does the offeror need to include in Subfactor 1B paragraph b. a full explanation of the techniques, disciplines, and procedures the offeror proposes to use to actually perform each of the items delineated in the Section C statement of work.

A31: Offerors shall include in Subfactor 1B paragraph b. a full explanation of the techniques, disciplines, and procedures the Offeror proposes to use to actually perform each of the items delineated in the Section C, Statement of Work.

Q32: Clause PD-L01, Section 2-Factor 2, Past Performance, the Government did not include the number of Past Performance Contract examples that should be provided in Offeror's proposals, please clarify.

A32: There is not a specific number of Contract examples to be provided under Past Performance, it is at each Offeror's discretion as to how many examples to provide which are considered relevant during the last three years. Please see pages 96-96 under Section L of the Solcitiation, SECTION 2: FACTOR 2- PAST PERFORMANCE for additional details.

Q33: Page 97 of the solicitation instructs offerors to submit past performance citations for contracts “completed during the last three years”. Will the Government consider past performance citations for active contracts?

A33: Page 97 of the RFP states: "Offerors should provide relevant past performance information for similar or related work under contracts completed during the last three years." This means that any contract within the past three years, active or expired, in which the Offeror completed work that is similar or related to the requirements in Section C should be provided as past performance information in response to this Solicitiation.

Q34: Page 94 of the RFP, Section L, Paragraph 3 under "Technical Proposal (Maximum length:

28 pages)states: “Proposals shall clearly and fully demonstrate that the prospective Contractor has a thorough understanding of the technical requirements contained in Section C, of this solicitation”. Paragraph 4 goes on to state: “The technical proposal must provide details concerning what the Contractor will do and how it will be done. This includes a full explanation of the techniques, disciplines, and procedures proposed to be followed.” Subsequently, paragraph 5 specifies that the technical proposal shall address in detail the information identified in Sections 1 and 2, which do not mention the statement of work. Is it the government’s intent that technical proposals only address the specific requirements stated in Section 1 and Section 2?

A34: Page 94, Section L, Paragraph 5 under "Technical Proposal (Maximum length: 28 pages) states: "The technical proposal shall be page numbered, contain a table of contents, be organized in the following two (2) Sections (FACTORS), and shall address in detail the following information:". Sections 1 and 2 on pages 94-97 detail the manner in which Offeror's should provide information regarding the technical evaluation factors for award. There is reference throughout Sections (FACTORS) 1 and 2 to the Statement of Work (Section C of the RFP).

Evaluation of proposals shall be conducted IAW Clause PD-M01 beginning on page 100 of the

RFP.

The following questions refer to Security Requirements:

Q35: Page 21 of the RFP, Section C, Paragraph 12, refers to Security Requirements. Will the Government accept interim security clearances?

A35: For the provision of a Common Access Card (CAC) you must have a completed investigation that has been favorably adjudicated or a final security clearance. A CAC will not be issued to contractors who have an interim security clearance.

Q36: Page 42, Clause PD‐H04, references an "open investigation," does an this refer to an investigation that has been submitted but not adjudicated? Please clarify.

A36: Clause PD‐H04 states that one must have a fully adjudicated background investigation, with a positive comeback of the FBI fingerprint check.

Q37: Page 42, Clause PD‐H04, references Field Security Officers (FSOs), which cannot issue Interims.

A37: We are aware that the clause may contain incorrect information.

Q38: Clause PD‐H04, references Industrial Security Clearance Office (DISCO), this is now the

DOD CAF.

A38: We are aware that the clause may contain incorrect information.

Q39: Page 42, Clause PD‐H04, states: " A CAC Card will not be issued to Contractors who have an interim security clearance." However, a CAC issuance only requires a favorable check from a position of trust with fingerprints.

A39: For the provision of a Common Access Card (CAC) you must have a completed investigation that has been favorably adjudicated or a final security clearance. A CAC will not be issued to contractors who have an interim security clearance.

Q40: Page 90 of the RFP, Clause HQ L‐2‐0003 references a CONFIDENTIAL facility clearance which conflicts with page 21 of the RFP, Paragraph 12, Security Requirements. Please clarify.

A40: The security requirement for this RFP is SECRET per the DD254 and paragraph 12 on page

21. Clause HQ‐L‐2‐0003 has been updated via this amendment.

The closing date and time remains unchanged.

If at any time during the performance of this Contract, the number of direct labor hours (not including “excess hours*”) utilized under this Contract exceeds 75% of the total estimated hours, the Contractor shall immediately notify the Contracting Officer of such circumstances. *Excess hours represent hours exceeding the estimated LOE amount.

e. Nothing herein shall be construed to alter or waive any of the rights or obligations of either party pursuant to the clause hereof entitled “Limitation of Cost” and/or “Limitation of Funds”.

f. It is understood and agreed that the number of hours and total dollar amount of each labor category specified in any Task Order issued under these Contracts are estimates only and shall not limit the use of hours or dollar amounts in any labor category which may be required and provided for under an individual Task Order.
