Statements that the prospective Offeror understands, or can and/or will comply with, the specifications, and paraphrasing the requirements or parts thereof without supporting information are considered inadequate by the Government, and may render a rating of unacceptable. For the purpose of this solicitation, relevance is defined as something that has a logical connection with the matter under consideration. Such aspects of relevance include the type of effort (e.g., development, production, repair), the type of requirements (e.g., weapon systems, information systems, engineering services, scheduled depot maintenance), service similarity, service complexity, contract type, contract dollar value, the division of the company that will perform the work, and degree of participation by principal subcontractors, team members, or critical team members. Recency is defined as performance within 10 years of the date of this proposal submission.

The Offeror must include any data that illustrates the adequacy of the various assumptions, approaches, and solutions to problems. Failure to address a specific factor or subfactor clearly may be considered a deficiency.

There is no need to repeat information in more than one volume if an overlap exists; the detailed information must be included in the most logical place and summarized and referenced in other areas. Unnecessarily elaborate brochures or other presentation materials beyond that sufficient to present a complete and effective proposal is neither necessary nor desired.

Offeror is expected to comply with all requirements of the RFP. The Government advises the Offeror that taking exception or deviating from any term or condition of the RFP may make an offer unacceptable, and the proposal unawardable, unless the RFP expressly authorizes such an exception or deviation with regard to that specific term or condition. The Government may consider any exception or deviation to any term or condition of the RFP that is not expressly authorized by the RFP to be a deficiency.

Throughout these instructions, a “principal subcontractor” is defined as a subcontractor who provides at least 25% of the proposed total price/cost (excluding the Offeror’s profit/fee), for the contract. “Team member” is defined one of the entities that make up a joint venture (JV) or any other partnership or teaming arrangement formed for the purpose of responding to this solicitation. “Critical team member” is defined as one of the entities of the Offeror that perform a critical function in the performance of the resulting contract, whether it is technical or financial, and/or that have important roles in any high- or medium- risk areas identified in the Offeror’s proposal.

Questions: No further questions will be addressed as indicated in Block 14 of the cover sheet..

2.0 PROPOSAL FORMAT

Written proposals must be formatted using a Times New Roman 12 pt normal font (no reduction permitted), single-spaced with 1-inch margins all around, and formatted for standard 8.5 x 11 inch paper. All pages should be numbered with section and page numbers. When foldout pages are used they must not exceed 11 x 17 inches and will be counted as 1 page. Drawings may be provided separately and may be any size but should be folded to approximately 8.5 x 11 inch standard size and will count as 1 page. Graphs shall be presented in no smaller than a 10 pt font and should contain a grid, which allows values to be read directly from the graph to the same accuracy that a 10 x 10 to the inch grid provides. Graphic resolution, including such data as tables or charts, should be consistent with the purpose of the data presented. If a discrepancy exists between the original paper copy of the proposal and the disk copy, the paper copy will take precedence.

The Offeror must present proposal information in a manner that facilitates a one-to-one comparison between the information presented and this Proposal Instruction. Proposal information must be structured such that its paragraph number/letter is identical to the Proposal Instructions paragraph number to which it is responding, although the Offeror may add lower tier subparagraphs. If there is no corresponding paragraph number, the Offeror’s proposal should reference the Proposal Instruction page number or most closely associated subheading. The Offeror must provide reasons it will not provide information for a particular paragraph.
