CLAUSES INCORPORATED BY FULL TEXT

52.204-21 BASIC SAFEGUARDING OF COVERED CONTRACTOR INFORMATION SYSTEMS (JUN 2016)

(a) Definitions. As used in this clause--

Covered contractor information system means an information system that is owned or operated by a contractor that processes, stores, or transmits Federal contract information.

Federal contract information means information, not intended for public release, that is provided by or generated for the Government under a contract to develop or deliver a product or service to the Government, but not including information provided by the Government to the public (such as on public Web sites) or simple transactional information, such as necessary to process payments.

Information means any communication or representation of knowledge such as facts, data, or opinions, in any medium or form, including textual, numerical, graphic, cartographic, narrative, or audiovisual (Committee on National Security Systems Instruction (CNSSI) 4009).

Information system means a discrete set of information resources organized for the collection, processing, maintenance, use, sharing, dissemination, or disposition of information (44 U.S.C. 3502).

Safeguarding means measures or controls that are prescribed to protect information systems.

(b) Safeguarding requirements and procedures.

(1) The Contractor shall apply the following basic safeguarding requirements and procedures to protect covered contractor information systems. Requirements and procedures for basic safeguarding of covered contractor information systems shall include, at a minimum, the following security controls:

(i) Limit information system access to authorized users, processes acting on behalf of authorized users, or devices (including other information systems).

(ii) Limit information system access to the types of transactions and functions that authorized users are permitted to execute.

(iii) Verify and control/limit connections to and use of external information systems.

(iv) Control information posted or processed on publicly accessible information systems.

(v) Identify information system users, processes acting on behalf of users, or devices.

(vi) Authenticate (or verify) the identities of those users, processes, or devices, as a prerequisite to allowing access to organizational information systems.

(vii) Sanitize or destroy information system media containing Federal Contract Information before disposal or release for reuse.

(viii) Limit physical access to organizational information systems, equipment, and the respective operating environments to authorized individuals.

(ix) Escort visitors and monitor visitor activity; maintain audit logs of physical access; and control and manage physical access devices.

(x) Monitor, control, and protect organizational communications (i.e., information transmitted or received by organizational information systems) at the external boundaries and key internal boundaries of the information systems.

(xi) Implement subnetworks for publicly accessible system components that are physically or logically separated from internal networks.

(xii) Identify, report, and correct information and information system flaws in a timely manner.

(xiii) Provide protection from malicious code at appropriate locations within organizational information systems.

(xiv) Update malicious code protection mechanisms when new releases are available.

(xv) Perform periodic scans of the information system and real-time scans of files from external sources as files are downloaded, opened, or executed.

(2) Other requirements. This clause does not relieve the Contractor of any other specific safeguarding requirements specified by Federal agencies and departments relating to covered contractor information systems generally or other Federal safeguarding requirements for controlled unclassified information (CUI) as established by Executive Order 13556.

(c) Subcontracts. The Contractor shall include the substance of this clause, including this paragraph (c), in subcontracts under this contract (including subcontracts for the acquisition of commercial items, other than commercially available off-the-shelf items), in which the subcontractor may have Federal contract information residing in or transiting through its information system.

(End of clause)

The proof/verification shall be in the form of Defense Security Service verification obtained no earlier than 30 days prior to the issuance of the solicitation and shall include the following: Cage Code, Facility Name, Physical Location, Facility Clearance Status/Level, Status Date/Issue Date, Safeguarding Level, Authorized Access To, FCL Limitation, Facility Security Officer, Facility Security Officer Phone Number, DSS Field Office, and DSS Field Office Phone Number.

No page limit.

Factor II – Past Performance

The quoter shall demonstrate relevant past performance or affirmatively state that it possesses no relevant past performance. Relevant past performance is performance under contracts or efforts performed that is the same as, or similar to the scope and magnitude of the work described by this solicitation. In addition, performance data will only be assessed for those references demonstrating at least 1 year of completed performance within the five years prior to the closing date of this solicitation.

To demonstrate its past performance, the quoter shall identify up to three (3) of its most relevant contracts or efforts. Quoters should provide a detailed explanation demonstrating the relevance of the contracts or efforts to the requirements of the solicitation. For purposes of this solicitation, a contract is defined as a single contract or a single purchase order placed under an ID/IQ contract, a Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA), or a Federal Supply Schedule. Quoters may submit a combination of no more than three (3) delivery orders (DOs), task orders (TOs), technical direction letters (TDLs), and/or technical area purchases (TATs) placed under an ID/IQ or BPA as one of the three examples of past performance. Such a combination must also meet the requirements stated above: each individual example in the combination must have been performed within five (5) years of the solicitation closing date and demonstrate at least one (1) year of completed performance during that five-year period. No more than one combination of DOs, TOs, TDLs and or TATs is permitted in the past performance submittal.

a. If proposed subcontractor past performance is provided as part of the three (3) of its most relevant contracts or efforts, the percentage and type of work to be done by the subcontractor on the solicitation requirement must be stated. The quoter’s submittal shall detail clearly the aspects of the work in the solicitation that the subcontractor is proposed to perform. A Past Performance example which does not detail clearly the aspects of the work in the solicitation that the subcontractor is proposed to perform will not be evaluated.

b. If the prime quoter or intended subcontractor/partner submits a past performance example in which it served as a subcontractor, the prime/sub/partner shall detail clearly the work that it performed and the magnitude (dollar value) of that subcontracted work only. A Past Performance example that does not differentiate between the overall contract effort and the subcontractor effort will not be evaluated.

c. If a combination of DOs, TOs, TDLs and or TATs are used as a past performance example, the quoter shall state the specific experience claimed, period of performance, and dollar value of each. Performance data will only be assessed for those individual references demonstrating at least 1 year of completed performance prior to the closing date of the solicitation. A Past Performance example that does not provide the level of detail required will not be evaluated.

Subcontractor performance (either the quoter's own subcontractor experience or proposed subcontractors experience) of major or critical aspects of this requirement will be considered as highly as prime contractor past performance information for the quoter. Failure of quoters to provide the required information and level of specificity will result in the contract reference not being evaluated.

In addition to the above, the quoter shall complete a “Past Performance Information Form” for each reference submitted.

In addition to the information requested above, quoters shall contact their past performance references and request that each reference complete the Past Performance Report Form attached to the solicitation and e-mail the completed survey form directly to Mr. Robert Babcock at robert.j.babcock@navy.mil and Ms. Elizabeth Phelps, at elizabeth.a.phelps1@navy.mil by the DUE DATE OF THIS SOLICITATION.

The price submission is not page limited, but is strictly limited to price information.

52.212-2 EVALUATION CRITERIA

The Government intends to award a contract to the responsible quoter whose quote represents the best value after the evaluation in accordance with the factors in the solicitation.

The Government intends to award without exchanges. Accordingly, the quoter should submit its most favorable terms from a facilities clearance, past performance, and price standpoint. However, the Government reserves the right to conduct exchanges if later determined by the PCO to be necessary. Quoters simply providing general statements or paraphrasing/ parroting the PWS in whole or in any part may result in a rating of unacceptable.

The selection of a quoter for award will be conducted in two phases. Phase I will consist of the evaluation of Factor I, Facilities Clearance. Quoters receiving an “Acceptable” rating in Phase I shall move on to Phase II.

Within Phase II quotes will be ranked according to price, inclusive of all option pricing. A quoter’s proposed prices will be determined by adding all extended amounts for the CLINs/SLINs in Section B. If the lowest priced quote is evaluated to have an overall Past Performance Confidence Assessment rating of ‘Substantial Confidence’, that quote represents the best value for the Government and the evaluation process stops at this point. Award shall be made to that quoter without further consideration of any other quotes. However, if the lowest priced quoter is not evaluated to have a ‘Substantial Confidence’ Past Performance Confidence Assessment rating, the next-lowest priced quoter will be evaluated. The evaluation process will continue (in order of price from lowest to highest) until a quoter is evaluated to have a ‘Substantial Confidence’ Past Performance Confidence Assessment rating. At that time, the Contracting Officer shall make an integrated assessment best value award decision between the quote rated with ‘Substantial Confidence’ and all lower priced quoters. If no quoter is rated "Substantial Confidence" the Contracting Officer shall make an integrated assessment best value award decision among all quoters rated "Unknown Confidence" or "Satisfactory Confidence."

1. Non-Price Quote

Phase I

Factor I: Facilities Clearance

Factor I will be evaluated on an Acceptable/Unacceptable basis on its submission of the proof/verification of its Secret Facilities Clearance. This will be evaluated during Phase I on an Acceptable/Unacceptable basis utilizing the Technical Acceptable/Unacceptable ratings in Table 1 below.

Phase II

Factor II: Past Performance

The past performance evaluation factor assesses the degree of confidence the Government has in a quoter’s ability to meet the requirements based on the quality of a demonstrated record of recent and relevant performance. There are three aspects to the past performance evaluation: recency, relevancy, and quality.

These are combined to establish a single performance confidence assessment rating for each quoter.

Past Performance Recency: Recency is the first aspect of the past performance evaluation and is the time period during which past performance references are considered relevant. Recency is critical to establishing the relevancy of past performance information. For purposes of this solicitation, recent past performance is performance that has taken place within five (5) years as of the closing date of this solicitation. Performance outside of this stated period will not be considered for evaluation purposes.

Past Performance Relevancy: Regarding relevancy, each past performance reference under each quoter’s Past Performance submission will be evaluated to determine its scope and magnitude relative to the instant requirement. The following definitions will apply to this evaluation:

• Scope: Experience in the areas defined in the PWS.

• Magnitude: The measure of the similarity of the dollar value of actually performed work that exists between the PWS and the quoter’s referenced contracts during the stated five-year period established by the solicitation.

The relevancy rating assigned to each past performance reference will be considered in determining the weight to be given to that reference in the overall Past Performance Confidence Assessment. In determining the rating for the past performance factor, past performance of greater relevancy will have more influence on the past performance confidence assessment than past performance of lesser relevance.

Past Performance Quality: The third aspect of the past performance evaluation is to establish the overall quality of the quoter’s past performance. The Government will review all past performance information collected and determine the quality of the quoter’s performance, including general trends and usefulness of the information, and will incorporate this into the performance confidence assessment.

Past Performance Confidence Assessment: The overall assigned rating for past performance will be the Past Performance Confidence Assessment rating, defined in the table below. The assignment of this rating will be based on the overall quality of the recent and relevant past performance and will also consider the source of the information, the context of the data, and general trends in the quoter’s performance.
