ALLIANT 2 UNRESTRICTED GWAC

SPECIAL NOTICE OF RFP AMENDMENT #6

21 JULY 2016

NOTICE 1: Section L.5.2.2 PSC Group Relevant Experience is amended as follows:

(1) Item 5(c.) word basic is changed to base, and the word complete is changed to completed. (2) Definition of words and terms as added below:

5. Each PSC Group Relevant Experience Project must be ongoing or have been completed within 5 years from the date proposals are due. Each project must have at least one year of performance unless one of the following situations exist:

a. The project has an Interim or a Final CPARS.

b. The project has a completed Award Fee Determination.

c. The project had a base period of performance less than one year and that period of performance is completed.

DEFINITION: For purposes of this section L.5.2.2, the words “Ongoing” is defined as a Project that has not yet been “Completed” by the proposal submission date (29 August 2016). “Completed” is the date on the contract/order document indicating the final day of performance or delivery; in other words, the day the contract is to be completed. Should a Contract Modification indicate an extended date of completion beyond the original completion date of the Project, the Modification completion date becomes the adjusted completion date. “Completed” date (or sometimes referred to as “Completion” date) is not the contract Closeout date, which is when all obligations of both parties have been fulfilled, e.g., unsettled funding obligations due to indirect cost audits pending after the Completion date. The word Completed, however, as applied to “a completed Award Fee Determination” is defined as the date the Award Fee Determination is officially approved by the contract officer, such as via a Modification.

NOTICE 2: Section L.5.2.3 L.5.2.3 Leading Edge Technology Relevant Experience is amended as follows: (1) Item 4(c.) word basic is changed to base, and the word complete is changed to completed. (2) Definition of words and terms as added below:

4. Each Leading Edge Technology Relevant Experience Project must be either ongoing or had been open and active within 5 years from the date proposals are due. Each project must have at least one year of performance unless one of the following situations exist:

a. The project has an Interim or a Final CPARS/PPIRS.

b. The project has a completed Award Fee Determination.

c. The project had a base period of performance less than one year and that period of performance is completed.

DEFINITION: For purposes of this section L.5.2.3, the words “ongoing” and “open and active” is defined as a Project that has not yet been “Completed” by the proposal submission date (29 August 2016). “Completed” is the date on the contract/order document indicating the final day of performance or delivery; in other words, the day the contract is to be completed.

The word Completed, however, as applied to “a completed Award Fee Determination” is defined as the date the Award Fee Determination is officially approved by the contracting officer, such as via a Modification.

The above changes will be enacted via formal SF-30 Amendment to the RFP in the near future.

PLEASE NOTE – The Procuring Contract Officer (PCO) anticipates multiple Federal Business Opportunities (FBO) postings into this Alliant 2 Unrestricted RFP document on addressing the critical questions and issues that may affect the Offeror’s submission of a proposal. The intent of the PCO is to provide important information to the public quickly as acquisition team responses for critical questions are developed. Therefore, rather than delay any information to the public for the sake of delivering a single document with all responses and RFP changes, which may inadvertently result in a much later FBO posting date, the PCO has decided to release information in smaller packages over multiple postings. - J. Cavadias, GSA Alliant 2 PCO

ADDITIONAL MESSAGE: The first group of Questions and Responses will be posted in about 2 to 3 business days following the date of this notice.
