A concise and comprehensive proposal is desired. The proposal shall be sufficient to enable evaluators to make a thorough and complete evaluation, and to arrive at a sound determination as to whether the requirements of this solicitation are satisfied. In preparing the proposal, emphasis should be placed on brief, complete, and factual data in the areas set forth in the Request for Proposal (RFP). Organization, clarity, accuracy of information, relevance, and completeness are of prime importance. Statements such as “will comply”, or “noted and understood” without supporting narrative to define compliance are not acceptable. Cursory responses or responses which merely reiterate or reformulate solicitation language will not be considered as satisfying the requirements of the RFP or as demonstrating the ability to perform.

NON-COST FACTORS

Proposal shall consist of the information specified for each evaluation factor listed below:

FACTOR A: MISSION CAPABILITY

SUBFACTOR A1: TECHNICAL APPROACH

The offeror shall submit a comprehensive Technical Approach that specifically defines and details their technical understanding and corresponding technical approach to executing the following services and referenced PWS paragraphs:

A1.1 Air Traffic Control (ATC) and Related Services (PWS paragraph 3.4) The offeror shall describe their technical understanding and technical approach to planning, organizing and conducting daily operations in the ATC facilities designated under PWS paragraph 3.4.2. Their approach shall demonstrate their understanding and technical approach for providing ATC services in accordance with PWS paragraphs 3.4.3 - 3.4.6 and Non-ATC Miscellaneous Aviation Support Services in accordance with PWS paragraph 3.4.7. Detail specific ATC actions required for the controlled airspace in the en route and terminal environment to demonstrate technical understanding of non-radar procedures.

A1.2. Meteorological (MET) Observation and Forecasting Services (PWS paragraph 3.5) The offeror shall describe their technical understanding and technical approach to providing quality weather forecasting and observations services. The technical approach shall specifically describe the strategy and the mechanisms that will be utilized to ensure quality is maintained and improved for produced weather products (i.e. forecasts, observations, briefs, etc.)

A1.3 Systems and Maintenance (SAM) Services (PWS paragraph 3.6) The offeror shall describe their technical understanding and technical approach to establishing and maintaining a high-quality maintenance program to support the types of systems and technologies identified in the PWS paragraph 3.6. The offeror shall describe their overall maintenance program and not specific actions for the various individual systems identified in PWS paragraph 3.6. The technical approach shall include the strategies that will be utilized to ensure that the quality of the maintenance program is established and improved.

Cumulative Technical Approach responses to Subfactor A1 shall not exceed 15 pages.

SUBFACTOR A2: CORPORATE EXPERIENCE

The offeror shall identify their corporate experience performing or providing the following Subfactor A2 elements:

A2.1 Performing En-route and Approach ATC support efforts in a radar and/or non-radar environment;

A2.2 Providing Aviation Weather forecasting and observing services;

A2.3 Maintaining ground-based aviation navigational aids, meteorology systems, and communications systems;

A2.4 Maintaining information systems, their security compliance, their peripherals and providing sustaining engineering services for these related systems.

Offerors (prime and significant subcontractors (if applicable)) shall document their current, relevant corporate experience as it relates to Subfactor A2 using the Reference Information Sheets provided as Attachments 1A and 1B. Corporate Experience reference data submissions are limited to the prime contractor and significant subcontractors ONLY. A significant subcontractor is defined as a subcontractor or intercompany work agreement (IWA) team member that will be performing at least twenty percent (20%) of the total proposed labor hours.

Offerors shall address all of the Subfactor A2 elements listed above and on Attachment 1B, Reference Information Sheet-Contract Specific Data. Offerors shall submit data on current contracts performed by the offeror and each proposed significant subcontractor (if applicable) for efforts relevant to the requirements identified under Subfactor A2 above. Current is defined as a contract performed within the last five (5) years from the date of solicitation issuance. Relevant is defined as a prior contract for efforts similar in scope to the requirements identified under Subfactor A2. The cumulative invoiced value of all relevant contract references submitted for the team (prime and significant subcontractors) must be equal to or exceed $5 million. At least one of the prime’s contract references shall have an invoiced value of equal to or exceeding $2 million. The more relevant the referenced work performed is to the service requirements of this contract, the more valuable the experience is to the Government. This current, relevant performance data shall be submitted for at least one, but no more than a total of five (5) of the most current and relevant contracts for the entire team (i.e. prime and significant subcontractors (if applicable), combined). At least one of the current and relevant contract references submitted shall be for work performed by the prime contractor, and at least one current and relevant contract reference shall be submitted for each proposed significant subcontractor. If the cumulative invoiced total amount of all relevant references submitted does not meet or exceed $5 million, or if the prime does not submit a relevant contract reference with an invoiced value of at least $2 million, or if at least one current and relevant contract reference is not submitted for each significant subcontractor, the offeror’s technical capability shall not be evaluated and the proposal will be deemed unacceptable.

For each contract or order cited on Attachment 1B, line 6 requires the contract type and total price (ceiling), and line 7 requires the final amount invoiced or amount invoiced to date.

In the case of orders under Indefinite Delivery contracts such as GSA, GWAC, DoD-wide (Seaport-E, NETCENTS, ITES-2S, ENCORE, etc.) and/or BPAs, an individual order which meets the definition of “current and relevant” and invoiced total threshold may be submitted as one of the contract references. Additionally, within the contract reference submission limitations as stated above, offerors may submit multiple orders under a single Indefinite Delivery contract in order to meet the invoiced total threshold. However, offerors shall demonstrate the relevancy of these orders to this specific solicitation and all of the orders shall meet the currency requirement of performance and be similar in scope to the requirements of this solicitation.

Reference Information sheets for any company, division, subsidiary, etc., that is not the prime contractor or significant subcontractor will not be considered. Offerors are reminded that in accordance with the requirements for the proposal content, written teaming agreements covering other proposed companies, divisions, subsidiaries, etc. of the prime or significant subcontractor(s) must be provided. The prime contractor is considered to be the organization that signs and submits the proposal. The Government must be ensured that the prime contractor will be the organization performing the work (as evidenced by hours allocated in the Pricing Model). CAUTION: It is important to this evaluation that the contract reference(s) submitted solely represent the technical capability/experience of the specific companies that are proposed to perform this contract effort. Therefore, the Government will be comparing the company name(s) cited on the submitted contract reference(s) against the company name(s) cited in the technical and Price proposals. In cases where there is any variance between the actual company name(s) cited on the submitted contract reference(s) and the company name(s) identified in the technical and price proposals, the prime contractor SHALL provide rationale that clearly identifies the correlation and/or association of the company(s). This rationale shall be provided in the Contract Reference Rationale submission.

The Government will review the rationale and determine if clear correlation and/or association can be made between the company name(s) cited on the submitted contract reference(s) and the technical and price proposals. In cases where such clear correlation and/or association cannot be made, the contract reference(s) shall not be considered.

Cumulative Corporate Experience responses to Subfactor A2 shall not exceed 15 pages as detailed below.

PAGE LIMITATIONS:

1. The Reference Information Sheet – Summary Data, Attachment 1A, shall be submitted for the prime and each significant subcontractor, and is not included in the page count below.

2. The Reference Information Sheet – Contract Specific Data Attachment 1B, shall be submitted for each contract reference and is not included in the page count to describe the technical capabilities associated with the specific contract reference as they relate to the Subfactor A2 elements A2.1 through A2.4.

3. There is no page limit established for information to describe each individual contract reference; however, there is a maximum total page limit of 15 pages allotted for all contract references in response to Subfactor A2. Offerors must describe their experience under each contract reference, using a separate Attachment 1B for each reference. For each contract reference, clearly describe how the corporate experience under the reference relates to the evaluation criteria. While there is no page limit per reference (except the overall page limit for all references), offerors must separately describe their experience under each reference so that the agency can evaluate the relevance of the experience performed under each reference. Offerors are free to allocate pages to references within the overall page limit. Offerors shall not provide a single narrative that describes experience under multiple references.

4. The Government will only evaluate the first 15 pages. Anything beyond the first 15 pages will not be evaluated.

FACTOR B: Recruitment, Retention, and Replacement Staffing Plan

Offeror’s shall submit a detailed Recruitment, Retention, and Replacement Staffing Plan that shall be utilized for managing the Polar Mission Support Requirement of the basic contract and ensuring consistency in the staffing levels on individual task orders. This plan shall provide a comprehensive approach for Recruitment and Retention of employees assigned to this effort with particular emphasis on replacement of staff due to illness, injury, behavior, and/or resignation of personnel deployed in remote locations or because of failure to certify/loss of certification, whether by the contractor’s internal process or by Government action (basic contract PWS paragraph 3.11.2.10). The Recruitment, Retention, and Replacement Staffing Plan shall be incorporated into the basic contract at the time of award.

FACTOR C: Task Order One (TO1) Key Personnel Qualifications

To effectively execute the TO1 requirements, contract personnel must possess certain knowledge and experience related to the work to be performed. In order to ensure an offeror has the required qualified Key Personnel to execute the TO1 requirements, offerors shall submit one resume for each of the following four (4) Key Personnel Labor categories. These four (4) Key Personnel positions shall initiate performance under the CLIN 0001 Polar Season Preparation effort in order to obtain the necessary training and familiarization of the requirements and subsequently be utilized to perform their respective duties under the CLIN 0002 Annual Polar Operations Support requirements in their respective Key Personnel positions.

(d) After contract award, resumes for all additional personnel in key labor categories listed in in Section C clause 5252.237-9600, Personnel Qualifications must be submitted and approved by the Government before that employee can work under this contract.

FACTOR D: PAST PERFORMANCE

(a) Offerors (prime and significant subcontractors) shall provide past performance information for each contract reference cited in their proposal in response to Factor A, Subfactor A2, under Attachment 1A. The government will not evaluate references that do not meet the definition of current or relevant; or that do not meet the required invoiced threshold.

If the offeror’s Contractor Performance Assessment Report (CPAR) is located in the Past Performance Information Retrieval System (PPIRS), then it is not necessary for a Past Performance Questionnaire to be submitted. For those offerors whose past performance information is not located on the automated system, offerors shall contact their references and request that each reference complete Attachment 3 - Past Performance Questionnaire and e-mail the completed survey form NOT LATER THAN THE CLOSING DATE AND TIME FOR RECEIPT OF PROPOSALS UNDER THIS SOLICITATION to omar.fraser@navy.mil. Offerors (prime and significant subcontractors) shall provide Attachment 3 - Past Performance Questionnaire for each cited contract (as applicable).

If the contract reference is an Indefinite Delivery contract for which CPAR records were not completed at the contract level but were completed on individual delivery/task orders, the offeror is required to identify the specific delivery/task order(s) under which effort was completed that is relevant to this solicitation, and provide past performance information for each delivery/task order as described above.

The Government may consider questionnaires received after the closing date and time for receipt of proposals under the solicitation. The Government reserves the right to contact references for verification or information.

Offerors are cautioned that past performance records located in PPIRS are archived (and irretrievable) after 3 years.

In such cases, offerors shall provide a copy of the CPAR record (including a Government and Contracting Point of Contact).

If the prime or significant subcontractor performed as a subcontractor on a Government contract and submits a past performance reference for that contract, the past performance questionnaire should be completed by a Government representative (COR on contract). If a Government representative is not available, the questionnaire may be completed by the prime contractor of the referenced contract.

(b) The Government does not assume the duty to search for data to cure the problems it finds in the information provided by the offeror. The burden of providing thorough and complete past performance information remains with the offeror.

(c) The Government may solicit information from an offeror’s customers and business associates; Federal, state and local government agencies; and from other persons and organizations. The Government reserves the right to limit the number of references it decides to contact and to contact references other than those provided by the offeror.

The evaluation will take into account the same type of information regarding significant subcontractors proposed in the offeror’s proposal.

Offerors that have no record of past performance (i.e., new businesses) must submit a signed and dated statement to that effect.

FACTOR E: SMALL BUSINESS* PARTICIPATION

All prime offerors (both Large AND Small Businesses) shall submit the Attachment 5 Small Business Participation Plan which will be used by the Government to evaluate this factor. Offerors will be evaluated on the extent of participation with small businesses in terms of the total acquisition value of this contract. Small business primes are to include their own planned effort in the Attachment 5 response.

The minimum acceptable small business participation average goal, based on the total acquisition value for this solicitation, is 12.0%.

*Small Business includes Small Businesses, Small Disadvantaged Businesses, Women-Owned Small Businesses, Veteran-Owned Small Businesses, Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses, HUBZone Small Businesses, and Historically Black Colleges or Universities and Minority Institutions.

In order for the Government to accomplish this evaluation, offerors shall provide the information requested in the “Small Business Participation Data Form,” Attachment 5, of this solicitation.

PAGE LIMITATIONS: Small Business Participation Information for the Proposed Contract Effort is limited to 5 pages (inclusive of the form).

The submittal of a Small Business Subcontracting Plan, which is only required from Large Businesses, is a separate requirement from the mandatory submission of Attachment 5 which is required for all prime offerors. See Small Business Subcontracting Plan, under the Other Proposal Requirements section of this solicitation, for submission instructions.

COST FACTOR

FACTOR F: COST PROPOSAL

Offerors shall submit a cost/price proposal utilizing the TO1 Pricing Model (Attachment 4A). The government will utilize the TO1 cost/price proposal to evaluate the offeror’s price reasonableness and cost realism. The offeror’s (prime and subcontractors) Cost/Price Proposal shall consist of the following:

(1) Cost Proposal Narrative to include:

• An explanation of the Cost Proposal as outlined in Alternate IV to the FAR 52.215-20

“Requirements for Certified Cost or Pricing Data and Data Other Than Certified Cost or Pricing Data” provision. Rationale for any variation or changes to the Attachment 4A Pricing Model.

• Identification and Type of Subcontract(s) – Prime offeror shall specify the type of each subcontract (e.g. CPFF, FFP, or T&M) proposed.

• Identification of cognizant DCAA and DCMA, name, address, telephone number, fax number, and e-mail address;

• Team Summary Chart (Proposed Team Members, Business Size, General Description of Planned Tasking) including a discussion of the roles and responsibilities of the offeror and its subcontractors (only required from the prime).

• Advise if offeror waives the evaluation adjustment under FAR Clause 52.219-4 entitled “Notice of Price Evaluation Preference for HUBZone Small Business Concerns.” Reference Section I (only required from the prime).

(2) Supporting documentation for data other than certified cost or pricing data - also including DCAA and/or DCMA correspondence ;

(3) Prices and any information required by the TO1 and the basic contract Section B for Option Ordering CLIN 1001 for the 6 month Option to Extend Services value, to include:

• Cost for Contract Line Items (CLINs) 0001 and 0002 of TO1 and the basic contract Option Ordering CLIN 1001 of the basic contract for the 6 month Option to Extend Services value

• Fixed Fee % for TO1 CLINS 0001 and 0002 and the basic contract Option Ordering CLIN 1001 for the 6 month Option to Extend Services value (Note: The proposed fixed fee percentage specified in Section B for Option CLIN 1001 and the fixed fee/profit percentage utilized in the Prime Pricing Model shall be identical)
