The Contractor shall achieve a 99.5% FPA rate for bench stock (bins and kits), defined as 99.5% of items available at the time of demand from the mechanic throughout the life of the contract. An FPA failure is defined as material not available to the mechanic at the time of demand; the bin or designated storage unit is empty, or there is a limited amount of material left in a bin or designated storage unit to satisfy the mechanic’s current need for material; or for kitting, a kit is not on-hand or is provided/accepted incomplete.

WITH

The Contractor shall achieve a 99.5% FPA rate for bench stock (bins and kits), defined as 99.5% of items available at the time of demand from the mechanic throughout the life of the contract. An FPA failure is defined as material not available to the mechanic at the time of demand; the bin or designated storage unit is empty, there is a limited amount of material left in a bin or designated storage unit to satisfy the mechanic’s current need for material; the bins containing replenishment parts contain only parts not meeting quality assurance standards; or for kitting, a kit is not on-hand, does not contain all items on the List of Materials (LOM) needed to complete the job at the time of kit demand by mechanic, or contains non-conforming items. In order for an incomplete kit to count as an FPA failure, the Production Support Chief (EPSC/WSSC), or designee, must conditionally accept a partial kit or reject the kit. If conditionally accepted or rejected, the kit will be recorded as an FPA failure, and the contractor will be required to provide all items needed to complete the kit to close the FPA failure. Each FPA failure including kit failures will be reported by the Government in the contractor’s electronic reporting system described in the PWS section 4.1.1.

16. Replace the following on page 47-48 of the RFP:

FPA is the percentage of material demands, on a per bin or per kit basis, for which the Contractor is responsible that were completed in their entirety. If the bins containing replenishment parts contain only parts not meeting quality assurance standards, this will be considered as a FPA failure that impacts production. Kit fulfillment and completion will be measured as the number of kit requests that were satisfied with fully available, complete kits. For kits, an FPA failure is defined as an incomplete kit, or a kit that does not contain all items listed on its List of Material (LOM). Performance measurement for FPA will begin at site activation and will be measured on a monthly basis for the ALC sites. FPA will be applied on an annual basis as the average of the monthly FPA % to determine the incentive / disincentive and will be calculated annually. The incentive / disincentive will be calculated against the Level of Support CLIN and added/ deducted to / from the Level of Support CLIN payment. The incentive / disincentive will be added or deducted from the monthly payment following completion of calculation of the incentive / disincentive to be applied at the conclusion of each annual performance period.

WITH

FPA is the percentage of success in fulfilling material demands, measured on a per mechanic per bin basis or per kit basis. The FPA percentage is calculated as the number of unsuccessful attempts by all mechanics to obtain a part or kit divided by the sum of the total non-automated bins supported plus the number of instances in which a mechanic requests a part from the automated bins or automated systems during the month plus the number of kit delivery requests. For example, if the mechanics request parts from an automated bin / automated system 5,000 times during the month, the contractor is supporting 100,000 non-automated part bins, and the customer requests delivery of 3,000 kits, the denominator will be 108,000. FPA will be calculated separately for each ALC on a monthly basis. For kits, an FPA failure is defined as a kit that is not available at time of customer request, contains non-conforming parts, or is conditionally accepted or rejected by the Production Support Chief. Kitting requests will be derived from the number of kits delivered during the month plus all open kit FPA failures.

Performance measurement for FPA will begin at site activation and will be measured on a monthly basis for the ALC sites. FPA will be applied on an annual basis per site as the average of the monthly FPA % to determine the incentive / disincentive per site and will be calculated annually. The incentive / disincentive will be calculated against the Level of Support CLIN and added to / deducted from the Level of Support CLIN payment. The incentive / disincentive will be added or deducted from the monthly payment following completion of calculation of the incentive / disincentive to be applied at the conclusion of each annual performance period.

17. Replace the following on page 47 of the RFP:

Any incentive earned by the Contractor may be reduced at the discretion of the KO for excessive product quality deficiencies for items delivered from the Contractor’s inventory.

Any incentive earned by the Contractor may be reduced at the discretion of the KO for excessive product quality deficiencies for items delivered from the Contractor’s inventory defined as no more than 1 PQDR per quarter per ALC for a contractor sourced item.

18. Replace the following on page 48 of the RFP:

New items added to the SOI will be permitted one lead-time for supportability expectations, and will not be included in the FPA calculation until the lead-time of record has expired. DLA-mandatory sourced items such as Critical Safety Items (CSI) or items requiring First Article Testing will be included in the FPA calculation. Kits that are provided / accepted as incomplete due to missing or new items within the first lead-time are not included in the FPA metric calculation.

WITH

New items added to the SOI will be permitted one lead-time for supportability expectations, and will not be included in the FPA calculation until the agreed to lead-time has expired. DLA-mandatory sourced items such as Critical Safety Items (CSI) or items requiring First Article Testing will be included in the FPA calculation.

Kits that are provided / accepted as incomplete due to missing or new items within the first lead-time are not included in the FPA metric calculation.

FPA failures caused by "frozen" DLA sourced material as referenced in the PWS 3.5.1 will not count against the contract metrics.

19. Replace the following on page 49 of the RFP:

The Government will notify the contractor at the time an item is contemplated to be added to this contract. If the item being added will be commercially sourced, the contractor will be requested to provide pricing for the item. The material cost will be evaluated for reasonableness and negotiated if necessary. The negotiated price will be in effect for the remaining life of the contract and will be included in all future EPA adjustments. Each time the Government adds NIINs beyond the initial +/- 5% of items included on the Schedule of Items, the contractor may provide pricing for an adjustment to the Bin Management portion of the Management sub-CLIN. The contractor shall provide any information requested by the Contracting Officer to justify the requested adjustment. The adjusted Bin Management portion of the Management sub-CLIN will be applicable to the adjusted Schedule of Items +/- 5%.

The material cost will be evaluated for reasonableness and negotiated if necessary. The negotiated price will be in effect for the remaining life of the contract and will be included in all future EPA adjustments. If the Government increases or decreases NIINs on contract beyond the initial +/- 10% of items included on the Schedule of Items, the contractor or Government may request an adjustment to the Bin Management portion of the Management sub-CLIN in accordance with FAR 52.243-1 ALT II and/or DFARS 252.243-7002 as a change in level of effort. If the level of effort decreases below the specified level above, the Government expects a reduction in the Bin Management portion of the contract.

The contractor will provide the labor categories and all labor rates associated with each of those categories at time of proposal for the length of the period of performance of this effort. In addition, the contractor shall provide any information requested by the Contracting Officer to justify requested adjustments and/or to set a baseline at time of award of contract by which to evaluate all future requested adjustments by either the contractor or Government. To establish the baseline, the Government will request information including, but not limited to category of labor and number of personnel required for bin management, and utilize the level of effort requested in the solicitation as well as the proposed bin management price to evaluate any future request to increase or decrease the level of effort. The adjusted Bin Management portion of the Management sub-CLIN will be applicable to the adjusted Schedule of Items +/- 10%.

In addition, this sub-CLIN includes task order labor as described in the PWS section 2.6. Task Order Labor is a contractual provision that is used for temporary increased level of efforts in the IPV program at the three ALCs. Temporary is defined as an increased level of effort not to last longer than twelve months in duration. Task Order Labor shall not be requested, or issued, on a consecutive or recurring basis for the same level of effort in an attempt to circumvent the temporary nature of Task Order Labor.

5.1 Primary Metric: First Pass Acceptance

The Contractor shall achieve a 99.5% FPA rate for bench stock locations and kits, defined as 99.5% of items available at the time of demand from the mechanic. FPA will not apply to BSLs supporting kitting location and will instead be measured at the time of kit delivery. An FPA failure is defined as material not available to the mechanic, or in the right quantity, at the time of demand. For example, the bin or designated storage unit is empty, or there is a limited amount of material left in a bin or designated storage unit to satisfy the mechanic’s current need for material. For kitting, an FPA failure is when a kit is not delivered to the customer upon demand or when a kit must be accepted incomplete. The key aspects of FPA are the expectation the Contractor is well synchronized with the customer to anticipate production demands and the Contractor is managing the supply chain in order to provide material at the correct time and in the correct quantities. A disincentive will apply for failure to meet the 99.5% FPA metric. FPA metric failures will be measured by the aggregate number of government reported material outages within a reporting period. The first FPA evaluation date will be one month after site activation and subsequent FPA evaluations will be monthly thereafter. It is the Air Force’s responsibility to notify the Contractor of an FPA failure (via the electronic system established by the Contractor), which will be verified by the DLA COR. The mechanic will notify their immediate shop supervisor who will, in turn, notify the DLA COR. The Contractor will be incentivized to achieve FPA greater than 99.5%.

5.1.1 Measurement

FPA is the percentage of material/kit demands, on a per bin/kit basis, for which the Contractor is responsible that were completed in their entirety. If the bins/kits containing replenishment parts contain only parts not meeting quality assurance standards, this will be considered as a FPA failure that impacts production. FPA is measured as ‘one hit per bin/kit’ meaning, if a bin/kit remains unfilled and an FPA has already been recorded, the Contractor will not be charged another FPA failure if a mechanic demand is placed upon the same bin/kit.
