General Instructions

The Offeror is required to submit sufficient information concerning the following areas to enable Government personnel to fully ascertain capabilities of the Offeror to perform the requirements. The proposal must be sufficient in detail and scope to permit evaluation and provide the evaluators a clear understanding of the Offeror’s capability to meet or exceed the defined elements as required by the solicitation. All proposals must clearly and convincingly demonstrate that the Offeror has a thorough understanding of the requirements and associated risks, the Offeror is able, willing, and competent to devote the resources necessary to meet the requirements, and has valid and practical solutions for all requirements and potential risk areas. The Offeror must respond to all requirements of the solicitation and not alter or rearrange the solicitation. The Offeror has the burden of proof to demonstrate compliance with all the evaluation factors identified in this solicitation. The Offeror is advised that the Government may incorporate into the final contract any portions of the Offeror’s proposal deemed beneficial to the Government. With the exception of the Volume III Price, no cost or pricing information should appear in any volume. Alternate proposals are not acceptable.

In presenting material in the proposal, the Offeror is advised that quality of information is more important than quantity. Clarity, brevity, and logical organization should be emphasized during proposal preparation. The Offeror is responsible for presenting enough information to allow the Government to evaluate the proposed work effort, support, and approach, and the cost/price proposal without opening discussions. Statements that the prospective Offeror understands, or can and/or will comply with, the specifications, and paraphrasing the requirements or parts thereof without supporting information are considered inadequate by the Government, and may result in a rating of unacceptable.

The Offeror must include any data that illustrates the adequacy of the various assumptions, approaches, and solutions to problems. Failure to address a specific factor clearly may be considered a deficiency and/or may result in the factor being rated unacceptable. There is no need to repeat information in more than one volume if an overlap exists; the detailed information must be included in the most logical place and summarized and referenced in other areas. Unnecessarily elaborate brochures or other presentation materials beyond that sufficient to present a complete and effective proposal is neither necessary nor desired.

The Offeror is expected to comply with all requirements of the solicitation. The Government advises the Offeror that taking exception or deviating from any term or condition of the solicitation may make an offer technically unacceptable and rejected without further consideration. Any request to tailor FAR Clause 52.212-4 per FAR 12.302 must be clearly identified by the Offeror in its Cover Letter; however, the Government advises the Offeror that it is not required to consider and accept any requests to tailor FAR 52.212-4. Any exception or deviation from any terms and conditions of the solicitation will be provided in Vol I, Cover Letter.

This data is considered “Other than Certified Cost or Price Data” IAW FAR 15.403-3.

3.5.2 HFAM Maintenance L&M Pricing Matrix Pricing Instructions

a. The pricing template will be used to state the Offeror’s price for each CLIN throughout the PoP as follows:

i. Tab “Transition In CLIN 0001” - The Offeror must enter a proposed price for three months (90 days) of “Transition In” into the block indicating the amount. The Offeror may propose zero cost if there is no cost, however, the Offeror is responsible for providing all support required. There will be one price indicated on this tab.

ii. Tab “MPM CLIN 0002” - The Offeror must enter a proposed price for each timeframe indicated to provide Maintenance Program Management support to all sites indicated in the PWS. The Offeror may propose zero cost if there is no cost, however, the Offeror is responsible for providing all support required. There will be five prices indicated on this tab.

iii. Tab “PM CLIN 0003” - The Offeror must enter a proposed price for each timeframe and for each site indicated to provide Preventive Maintenance support. The Offeror may propose zero cost if there is no cost, however, the Offeror is responsible for providing all support required. There are 102 sites.

iv. Tab “CM CLIN 0004” - The Offeror must enter a proposed price for each timeframe and for each site indicated to provide Corrective Maintenance support. The Offeror may propose zero cost if there is no cost, however, the Offeror is responsible for providing all support required. There are 102 sites.

This will not include the Maintenance Program Management support, Corrective Maintenance, and Preventative Maintenance cost for this time period because they are to be proposed on the previous CLINs.

vii. Do not change anything on Tab Total Evaluated Price except the input for Contractor Name and Proposal Date.

3.5.3 The Total Evaluated Price found on the HFAM Maintenance L&M Pricing Matrix spreadsheet is not the total price of the contract but a way to evaluate competitive price proposals in a fair manner.

Note 1: Site Support Projects (SSP) CLIN 0005 - The Government will NOT include any pricing from this tab in the Total Evaluated Price tab. During contract performance, the Government may not utilize every labor category for each timeframe.

It is the Offeror’s responsibility to ensure the calculations are correct and pulling information from the correct worksheet cells. If the Offeror does believe there is an error in any of the spreadsheets, inform the Contracting Officer immediately upon discovery. The Government does reserve the right to correct formula errors without consulting the Offeror, but will not adjust any rates or quantities proposed.

3.6 Price Reasonableness

Proposals will be evaluated for price reasonableness. If price reasonableness cannot be determined, additional pricing information will be requested by the Government in accordance with DFARS 215.403-5. Price evaluation will be based on the total cost offered for all CLINs. If necessary, an informal breakdown to include but not limited too; material, labor, overhead, general and administrative expenses, miscellaneous subcontracting, travel/per diem, contract data and any miscellaneous cost items, will be required at the CLIN level.

3.7 IDIQ Contract Setup

Task Orders will be issued on an as needed basis. The intent of the Government is to issue an initial Task Order for CLIN 0001 Transition In. This CLIN will be utilized once. Annually, a separate Task Order will be issued for CLINs 0002, 0003, and 0004 for the respective timeframe. CLIN 0005 will be executed, as needed, when requirements are presented and independently evaluated at the time of execution. If at any time during the ordering period, the Government has a need for site support unique maintenance, a request for proposal will be issued to the Contractor and a negotiated Task Order will be issued. At the end of the contract, a Task Order will be issued for CLIN 0006 Transition Out support.
