B. 1 SERVICES AND PRICES
B.1 DESCRIPTION OF SERVICES
The Contractor, at its site, shall provide the personnel, facilities, equipment, and other materials and services necessary to perform the effort described in Section C, Statement of Work, resulting from this Request for Proposals (RFP). PBGC is seeking to make multiple award(s). The contract type for the contract(s) awarded for this effort will be Fixed Rate/Variable Quantity.
B.2 GENERAL DESCRIPTION
PBGC is seeking to obtain qualified, experienced, and highly competent contractors to provide active investment management services for Active Europe, Australasia, Far East (EAFE) Investment Management Services that will, over a full market cycle, provide a total rate of return which exceeds the benchmark of the respective portfolio, consistent with appropriate levels of risk.
B.3 PRICING SCHEDULE
Offerors are required to submit pricing proposals for the base period and nine option periods for the product in the solicitation. The pricing *assumptions provided by PBGC in the solicitation may not be indicative of the work the Offerors can expect to receive on an annual basis under the resulting contract. Therefore, PBGC makes no guarantee as to the allocation to the product. Actual investment amounts will vary at the discretion of the PBGC. As a result, Offerors shall provide pricing break points for all asset levels. The Offeror’s proposed fixed rate and pricing break points shall be incorporated into the final contract upon award. Failure to provide pricing for the product will result in the Offeror’s proposal being deemed incomplete and the Offeror’s proposal will not be evaluated for award.
The investment management services are for an active EAFE portfolio with allocations ranging from $300,000,000.00 to $1,500,000,000.00. Allocations will vary based on the investment skill, experience level and ability of the managers to meet the needs of this contract. These allocations may change over time due to the investment results generated by the contractor(s) and the needs of PBGC.
*However, for evaluation purposes, PBGC will evaluate proposals based on a hypothetical allocation of $600,000,000. For evaluation purposes only, offerors are required to calculate a total annual fee for each period based on the $600,000,000 hypothetical allocation.

SECTION C
DESCRIPTION/SPECIFICATIONS/WORK STATEMENT
C. 1 STATEMENT OF WORK
Active EAFE Investment Management Services
1. BACKGROUND
The Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA) established the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation (PBGC) as a federal corporation to encourage the growth of defined benefit pension plans, provide timely and uninterrupted payment of pension benefits, and keep pension insurance premiums at a minimum.
Defined benefit pension plans promise to pay a specified monthly benefit at retirement, commonly based on salary and years on the job.
PBGC, a wholly owned United States Government corporation, administers the insurance program and termination process for most private-sector defined benefit pension plans that are tax-qualified under the Internal Revenue Code. PBGC is headed by a Director who reports to a board of directors consisting of the Secretaries of Labor, Commerce, and Treasury, with the Secretary of Labor as Chairman. General tax revenues do not fund PBGC. PBGC collects insurance premiums from employers that sponsor insured pension plans, earns money from investments and receives the assets of the pension plans it terminates. PBGC manages all these assets under an investment policy approved by the Board of Directors. PBGC’s funds are separated into two funds: a Revolving Fund which holds the premiums received and a Trust Fund which holds the assets of terminated plans.
The PBGC Investment Program is structured as a manager-of-managers program. No assets are managed internally. The PBGC exclusively uses institutional investment management firms to invest its assets, subject to PBGC’s oversight and consistent with the PBGC’s Investment Policy Statement. PBGC selects investment managers subsequent to a rigorous procurement process and delegates investment discretion to them to manage the Corporation’s investment assets consistent with guidelines specified by contract. The PBGC continuously reviews and evaluates manager performance and conducts extensive due diligence to ensure satisfaction of performance standards and compliance with investment guidelines.
2. SCOPE
The Contractor shall be responsible for providing investment management and related services for an Active Europe, Australia, Far East (EAFE) investment portfolio. The investment management organizations that will be retained under contract by PBGC are responsible for providing investment management of an active portfolio that is 100% long only. The PBGC will benchmark the portfolio to the MSCI EAFE Index. The assets are part of PBGC’s Trust Fund.
3. OBJECTIVES
All assets shall be managed with full discretion in accordance with this contract, the policies of PBGC, and the strategy and objectives mutually agreed upon between the investment manager and PBGC. Investment guidelines will be agreed upon between PBGC and the Contractor.
The investment manager shall maintain close contact with PBGC’s Corporate Investments Department and shall serve as a resource of economic and investment information and research. The investment manager shall keep PBGC fully informed of the rationale for the investment manager’s investment decisions and changes in the portfolio under its management.
The investment manager shall have ERISA fiduciary responsibility for the assets under its management. PBGC shall delegate its proxy voting authority to the investment manager. The investment manager shall maintain records of its votes and report the results, at least annually, to PBGC.
The investment manager shall work closely with PBGC’s custodian bank to facilitate the efficient and timely recording of purchases, sales and other activity, reconcile securities and cash balances and provide information necessary to calculate performance results. The manager shall be responsible for best execution as well as fiduciary responsibility for equity and foreign exchange trades.
PAGE 10 OF 82 PBGC01-RP-16-0019
The investment manager shall also be responsible for timely notification to PBGC of significant changes in personnel, ownership, resources, or firm direction.
4. EDUCATIONAL CONFERENCES
Offeror shall provide up to six (6) slots in any educational conferences it may offer to clients as part of the normal contract cost. This would include the cost of related meals offered as part of the formal conference program. Non-training or non-educational activities offered at the conference including, but not limited to, golf, fishing, tours, entertainment, etc., shall not be included, as PBGC can neither pay for nor may individual employees accept these items. PBGC will pay its own travel, lodging, per diem, and other subsistence expenses (e.g., if meals are not offered to all attendees as part of the conference) for attendees at such conferences.
PBGC will advise Offeror of its acceptance or declination of such slots offered.
5. DISASTER RECOVERY
The Offeror is required to have and maintain a disaster recovery plan, which includes critical business operations, computer systems, and telecommunications. This plan shall be tested annually and updated as needed. The Offeror shall provide a copy, or a summary thereof, of the annual test results to the PBGC within 30 calendar days of the completion of the test. A copy, or a summary thereof, of the current and/or revised plan shall be provided to the COR within 30 calendar days of Disaster Recovery Plan revision.

H. 2 PBGC 52.209-7001 ORGANIZATIONAL CONFLICTS OF INTEREST (OCT 2004)
(a) Purpose. The purpose of this clause is to ensure that the contractor
(1) is not biased because of its financial, contractual, organizational, or other interests which relate to the work under this contract, and
(2) does not obtain any unfair competitive advantage over other parties by virtue of its performance of this contract.
(b) Scope. The restrictions described herein shall apply to performance or participation by the contractor and any of its partners, affiliates or their successors in interest (after this collectively referred to as the "contractor") in the activities covered by this clause as a prime contractor, subcontractor, cosponsor, joint venturer, consultant, or in any similar capacity. For the purpose of this clause, affiliation occurs when a business concern is controlled by or has the power to control another or when a third party has the power to control both.
(1) Use of Contractor's Work Product.
(i) The contractor shall be ineligible to participate in any capacity in PBGC contracts, subcontracts, or proposals therefor (solicited and unsolicited) which stem directly from the contractor's performance of work under this contract. Furthermore, unless so directed in writing by the Contracting Officer, the contractor shall not perform any advisory and assistance services work under this contract on any of its products or services or the products or services of another firm if the contractor is or has been substantially involved in their development or marketing. Nothing in this subparagraph shall preclude the contractor from competing for follow-on contracts for advisory and assistance services.
(ii) If, under this contract, the contractor prepares a complete or essentially complete statement of work or specifications to be used in competitive acquisitions, the contractor is ineligible to perform or participate in any capacity in any contractual effort which is based on such statement of work or specifications. The contractor shall not
PAGE 19 OF 82 PBGC01-RP-16-0019
incorporate its products or services in such statement of work or specifications unless so directed in writing by the Contracting Officer, in which case the restriction in this subparagraph shall not apply.
(iii) Nothing in this clause precludes the contractor from offering or selling its standard commercial items to the Government.
(2) Access to and use of information.
(i) If the contractor, in the performance of this contract, obtains access to information, such as Corporate plans, policies, reports, studies, financial plans, internal data protected by the Privacy Act of 1974 (5 U.S.C. 552a), or data which has not been released or otherwise made available to the public, the contractor agrees that without prior written approval of the Contracting Officer it shall not:
(A) use such information for any private purpose unless the information has been released or otherwise made available to the public;
(B) compete for work for PBGC based on such information for a period of six months after either the completion of this contract or until such information is released or otherwise made available to the public, whichever is first;
(C) submit an unsolicited proposal to the Government which is based on such information until one year after such information is released or otherwise made available to the public; and
(D) release such information unless such information has previously been released or otherwise made available to the public by PBGC.
(ii) In addition, the contractor agrees that to the extent it receives or is given access to proprietary data, data protected by the Privacy Act of 1974 or other confidential or privileged technical, business, or financial information under this contract, it shall treat such information in accordance with all restrictions imposed on disclosure and use of such information.
(c) Disclosure after award.
(1) The contractor agrees that if changes, including additions, to the facts disclosed by it prior to award of this contract, occur during the performance of this contract, it shall make an immediate and full disclosure of such changes in writing to the Contracting Officer. Such disclosure may include a description of any action which the contractor has taken or proposes to take to avoid, neutralize, or mitigate any resulting conflict of interest. PBGC may, however, terminate the contract for convenience if it deems such termination to be in the best interest of the Government.
(2) In the event that the contractor was aware of facts required to be disclosed or the existence of an actual or potential organizational conflict of interest and did not disclose such facts or such conflict of interest to the Contracting Officer, PBGC may terminate this contract for default.
(d) Remedies. For breach of any of the above restrictions or for nondisclosure or misrepresentation of any facts required to be disclosed concerning this contract, including the existence of an actual or potential organizational conflict of interest at the time of or after award, the Government may terminate the contract for default, disqualify the contractor from subsequent related contractual efforts, and pursue such other remedies as may be permitted by law or this contract.
(e) Waiver. Requests for waiver under this clause shall be directed in writing to the PBGC Office of General Counsel and a copy provided to the Contracting Officer, and shall include a full description of the requested waiver and the reasons in support of the request. If it is determined to be in the best interests of the Government, the Contracting Officer may grant such a waiver in writing.
(f) Subcontracts.
(1) The contractor shall include a clause, substantially similar to this clause, including this paragraph (f), in subcontracts expected to exceed the simplified acquisition threshold in FAR Part 13. The terms "contract," "contractor," and "Contracting Officer" shall be appropriately modified to preserve the Government's rights.
(2) Prior to the award under this contract of any such subcontracts for advisory and assistance services, the contractor shall obtain from the proposed subcontractor or consultant a disclosure of all existing or potential organizational conflicts of interest and shall determine in writing whether the interests disclosed present a significant potential for an organizational conflict of interest. Where an actual or significant potential organizational conflict of interest is identified, the contractor shall take actions to avoid, neutralize, or mitigate the organizational conflict to the satisfaction of the contractor. If the conflict cannot be avoided or neutralized, the contractor must obtain the approval of the PBGC Contracting Officer prior to entering into the subcontract.
