15.3 such as a competitive range determination, pre-award notifications to offerors excluded from a competitive range, or discussions.

(2) The Government intends to evaluate proposals and award a task order based on initial proposals without conducting interchanges with offerors. Therefore, the offeror's initial proposal should contain the offeror's best terms from a cost or price and technical standpoint. However, the Government reserves the right to conduct interchanges if determined necessary by the Contracting Officer.

(3) The Government will not utilize a tradeoff process or a lowest price technically acceptable source selection process.

Instead, the Government will utilize a source selection process where a task order will be issued to the offeror submitting the technically superior proposal at a fair and reasonable price (Highest Technically Rated Offer with Reasonable Price (HTRO-RP)). There will be no tradeoff between the non-cost factors and cost/price.

(4) The Government may limit its cost and price analysis (including cost realism) to the technically superior proposal.

(5) The Government may conduct interchanges with one, some, all, or none of the offerors at its discretion. Once an apparent successful offeror is identified, the Government reserves the right to conduct interchanges with only that offeror to address any remaining issues, and finalize a task order with that offeror. These issues may include revisions to non-cost factors, cost/price, or any other aspect of the proposal.

(g) Task Order award.

(1) The Government intends to award a task order resulting from this solicitation to the offeror whose proposal is determined to be the technically superior proposal, while also offering a fair and reasonable price. See Section M evaluation criteria for further details.

L-204-LANT102-S DATA OTHER THAN CERTIFIED COST OR PRICING DATA (JAN 2026)

(a) Adequate price competition is anticipated and certified cost or pricing data is not required to be included with the initial proposal submission. As such, offerors are not required to submit written requests for exceptions from certified cost or pricing data or provide data regarding the evaluation of subcontract prices with the initial proposal submission. Should the Contracting Officer notify the offeror after proposal submission that certified cost or pricing data is required, the offeror shall comply with the provisions of DFARS 252.215-7992 and 252.215-7994 Alt I which are included in this solicitation.

(b) Provide information and data described below:

The offeror shall submit data other than certified cost or pricing data and supporting information prepared in accordance with Attachments 02 and 03, Prime and Subcontractor Pricing Models, and directions therein (detailed instructions are provided in the Pricing Models). The Pricing Models contain all of the labor categories and hours that the Government has anticipated for use under this effort. Offerors are to complete the Pricing Models with the information outlined below and this information will be used as a mechanism to evaluate cost for the performance periods.

The cost breakdown shall indicate the offeror's total estimated proposed price for each year and the cumulative proposed price for all years. Any substantiating information submitted must support the cost elements proposed. Include sufficient detail or cross references to clearly establish the relationship of the information provided to the cost proposed. Support any information provided by explanations or supporting rationale, as needed to permit the Contracting Officer and authorized representatives to evaluate the documentation.

NOTE: Specific to each CLIN, the Section B tab in the Prime Pricing Model will identify a total estimated value. Specific to the Labor CLINs, the total estimated value will correspond to an hourly rate calculated out to the penny with no further rounding. For example: 1,000 LOE hours x $51.52 = total estimated value of $51,520. The Section B tab will automatically populate based on the data entered by the offeror into the Attachment 02, Prime Pricing Model. The Prime Pricing Model's Section B tab figures should match the figures input by the Prime contractor into the SeaPort portal's Section B for award. In the event of a discrepancy, SeaPort Section B values will be used to make task order award. The Summary tab of the Prime Pricing Model will be used for evaluation purposes.

PART I--COST LABOR INFORMATION:

(1) Current, actual unloaded rates are to be submitted for any "proposed individual". A is defined as a current or prospective "proposed individual" employee specifically proposed to perform an estimated number of hours for a labor category. Offerors shall modify the Prime and Subcontractor Pricing Models as necessary ( ., add rows and identify proposed individuals by name) to account for each proposed individual. In accordance with i.e the offeror's disclosed estimating system practices, average unloaded direct labor rates may be submitted for all remaining labor categories/hours, ., i.e those labor categories/hours not accounted for under the proposed individual's data. Do submit composite rates encompassing more than one not labor category. This cost information shall include, as a minimum, the cost data elements contained in Attachments 02 and 03, Prime and Subcontractor Pricing Models. Offerors shall include additional elements such as overtime rates/hours, premium time rates/hours, etc. as applicable.

This task order is subject to the Service Contract Labor Standards (SCLS) statute and the latest wage determination (WD) for Charleston, and SC is attached (reference RFP Attachment 04).Norfolk, VA

All labor categories shall be escalated for the option years. Offerors shall use an annual labor escalation rate of at least 3.0% for each option year for the SCLS labor categories, which are subject to the applicable wage determinations. For professional labor categories, offerors should propose an escalation rate based on historical data, employment/price indexes, or those accepted by Defense Contract Management Agency (DCMA) or Defense Contract Audit Agency (DCAA) for proposal purposes. The narrative to the Cost/Price Proposal must include supporting information and rationale for professional escalation rates.

(2) UNCOMPENSATED OVERTIME - Actual hourly rates submitted shall be derived by dividing the proposed individual's actual annual salary by 2080 hours, which is based on a 40-hour work week. Any uncompensated overtime proposed shall be clearly identified by labor category within your cost proposal and will be evaluated in accordance with the FAR 52.237-10 "Identification of Uncompensated Overtime" provision in Section L of this solicitation.

PART II--REQUIREMENT FOR DATA OTHER THAN CERTIFIED COST OR PRICING DATA:
