Evaluation Approach and Factors In accordance with FAR Part 15 and NASA FAR Supplement (NFS)

1815, Contracting by Negotiation, this acquisition will be conducted as a PPTO source evaluation

Tradeoff process will be performed between price and past performance, not on Technical Considerations

All technically acceptable offers shall be treated equally except for their prices and performance records

This source selection will not use a mission suitability factor and numerical scoring

December 5, 2016 37

Source Selection Procedures

Step 1: An initial review of proposals conducted to determine acceptability of the proposals.

All unacceptable proposals will not be further evaluated.

Step 2: The Government will evaluate remaining proposals from Step 1 against M.6, Technical Considerations, to ensure the Offeror can satisfy the technical acceptability requirements.

Proposals will be rated as technically acceptable or technically unacceptable.

Proposals rated as technically unacceptable will not be further evaluated.

Step 3: The Government will evaluate all technically acceptable proposals remaining from Step 2 for a fair and reasonable price.

Proposals determined to be not fair or reasonable will not be further evaluated.

(next page continued)

December 5, 2016 38

Basis for Contract Award (Excerpts from Provision M.5)

Step 4: The Government will rank the proposals remaining after Step 3 in order of lowest to highest Mission Services price as proposed in Table B.3, Matrix of CLINs, “Sum of Total Contract Value (MSFC & MAF) – Base Plus Options.”

Step 5: The Government will evaluate the past performance of the lowest fair and reasonable priced proposal from Step 4.

Conduct past performance evaluation

Then, the process will continue in order of lowest fair and reasonable priced until an Offeror has received a Very High Level of Confidence rating, or until all Offerors are evaluated.

Once a proposal is rated with a Very High Level of Confidence, no other higher priced proposals will be evaluated.

Step 6: The Source Selection Authority (SSA) will make a best value award decision most advantageous to the Government.

December 5, 2016 39

Basis for Contract Award (Excerpts from Provision M.5) (continued)

Volume I - Technical Considerations (Excerpts from Provision L.17 and M.6)

The Offeror shall provide a complete description sufficient to verify full compliance with each of the technical requirements.

Ostensible Subcontractor Rule

An ostensible subcontractor is a subcontractor that:

Performs primary and vital requirements of a contract, or of an order under a multiple award schedule contract.

A subcontractor upon which the prime contractor is unusually reliant.

December 5, 2016 49

Ostensible Subcontractor Rule - Things to Consider

If the Offeror proposes using subcontractors, the Offeror shall consider the following for compliance with the Small Business Administration’s (SBA) Ostensible Subcontractor Rule (reference 13 CFR 121.103):

1. Who will manage the contract?

2. Which party possesses background and expertise necessary for contract performance?

3. Which party pursued the contract?

4. The degree of collaboration in preparation and submission of this Proposal.

5. Whether there are discrete tasks to be performed by each teammate and/or subcontractor, or whether there is instead a co-mingling of personnel and resources.

December 5, 2016 50

Key Topic – Small Business

Ostensible Subcontractor Rule - Things to Consider (continued)

6. Which party will perform the more complex and costly contract functions?

7. The relative amount of proposed work (annual dollar value) to be performed by each teammate and/or subcontractor.

8. The business size (number of employees and annual revenue) of each teammate and/or subcontractor.

9. Is a subcontractor the incumbent and ineligible to submit a proposal because it does not meet all the solicitation requirements (e.g. size standard, set aside type, etc.)?

10. Did the prime include subcontractor personnel in the proposed organizational structure, and did the prime propose the managerial staff of the incumbent in their proposal (all or some)?

L.22 Organizational Conflicts of Interest (OCI)

Offerors shall submit a draft Organizational Conflicts of Interest (OCI) Plan as part of Volume IV as Attachment J-12, Organizational Conflicts of Interest Plan.

An acceptable OCI plan (including strategies for mitigating any identified OCIs) is an eligibility requirement for consideration of the Offeror’s proposal and award of the contract. As such, the CO may communicate with any Offeror at any time during the evaluation process concerning its OCI plan. This OCI plan, as approved by the Government, will be included in any resulting contract as a contractual obligation. An Offeror shall submit an OCI plan that identifies its strategy for resolving each actual or potential OCI created for the Offeror by the requirements of the solicitation/contract (e.g., work at other NASA centers by the Offeror or an affiliate, access to highly sensitive information or decision-making processes associated with other NASA centers, assisting other companies in responding to NASA solicitation). The Offeror shall address each of the requirements listed in paragraph 15.3 of DRD No. 1536MA-007, Organizational Conflicts of Interest (OCI) Plan.

Service Contract Labor Standards

Patrick Rasco Office of Center Operations

Labor Relations Director

December 5, 2016 54

Service Contract Labor Standards

Subpart 22.10 – Service Contract Labor Standards (SCLS)

This subpart prescribes policies and procedures implementing the provisions of 41 U.S.C. chapter 67, Service Contract Labor Standards (formerly known as the Service Contract Act of 1965)

December 5, 2016 55

Key Topic – Labor Relations

Purpose and Intent of the Original

Service Contract Act of 1965

To remove artificially low wages as a factor in the competition for Federal Service Contracts by requiring the payment of not less than locally prevailing wage rates and fringe benefits, or in certain cases, the wages and fringe benefits contained in the predecessor contractor’s collective bargaining agreements (CBAs).

December 5, 2016 56

Key Topic – Labor Relations

Definition of “Service Employee”

Service Contract Labor Standards (SCLS) define a service employee as any person engaged in the performance of a covered Federal services contract…

However, it exempts those employees that qualify as a bona fide Executive, Administrative, or Professional employee.

December 5, 2016 57

Key Topic – Labor Relations

Things to Consider…

As a prospective contractor you are liable for the proper interpretation, application, implementation and administration of the mandatory provisions of the SCLS.

You must take appropriate action when preparing your offer to ensure compliance with the SCLS and that your corporate policies are compliant with the spirit and intent of the law.

It is the Offerors’ responsibility to work with represented employees to gain knowledge of existing CBAs and agreements.

December 5, 2016 58

Key Topic – Labor Relations

Mandatory Requirements

Applies to contracts entered into by the United States or District of Columbia in excess of $2,500 for the furnishing of services through the use of “service employees” and mandates:

Timely payment of wages

Posting requirements

Minimum record keeping

December 5, 2016 59

Key Topic – Labor Relations

Mandatory Requirements (continued)

Those outlined in the Department of Labor “Area” Wage Determination (WD)

Minimum Wages Based on Job Classification See the Directory of Occupations to ensure the proper classification of each service employee.

Minimum Health and Welfare Rate A minimum average of $4.27 per hour, computed on the basis of all hours worked by the service employee on the contract.

Minimum number of Vacation Days Based on years of continuous service in any capacity with the incumbent contractor and all predecessor contractors. Refer to the appropriate WD for correct accrual rates.

Minimum Number of Paid Holidays 10 paid holidays per year

Does not require a “service employee” to work the day before or the day after a holiday to receive holiday pay.

– If any work is performed (by a service employee) in a work week in which a holiday falls, the employee is entitled to holiday pay.

December 5, 2016 60

Key Topic – Labor Relations

Requires the payment of health and welfare, vacation, and holiday pay to temporary and part-time employees.

Does not provide for premium rates of pay for overtime hours worked, but it does recognize other Federal laws that do require overtime pay:

The Fair Labor Standards Act

Contract Work Hours and Safety Standards Act

Premium Pay is one-and-one-half (1 ½) times the employee’s basic hourly rate of pay for all time worked over 40 hours per week.

December 5, 2016 61

Key Topic – Labor Relations

Items that can not be counted as Health and Welfare for SCLS computation purposes:

Federal, State, and Local Taxes, Unemployment or Workers’ Compensation, Professional Insurance, Liability Insurance, etc.

The furnishing of Board and Lodging

The furnishing of “facilities” or “transportation”

Contributions to social functions

Vacation pay

Holiday pay

December 5, 2016 62

Key Topic – Labor Relations

Please give appropriate attention to SCLS

It is critical part of this solicitation evaluation and successful contract performance.

Failure to propose correctly can have serious consequences Union Issues

Inability of team members to perform

There are sanctions for failure to comply with mandatory requirements If a contractor fails to comply with the mandatory requirements, the Government may…

Withhold from payments a sum adequate to pay back wages or fringe benefits due employees

Bring legal action against the contractor

Terminate contract and hold contractor liable for any resulting cost to Government

Not award contracts to violators for three (3) years

December 5, 2016 63

Key Topic – Labor Relations

Please remember… Work with your staff and subcontractors to ensure familiarity with
