TASK ORDER PLACEMENT PROCEDURES

The following procedures and selection criteria will be used to provide multiple awardees a fair opportunity to be considered for each order under TIPSS-4, pursuant to Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Subpart 16.505(b), Orders under Multiple Award Contracts. The TIPSS-4 Contract Management Plan and Standard Operating Procedures will provide additional guidance for task order placement procedures.

G.4.1

FAIR OPPORTUNITY PROCESS

The TIPSS Program Office will assign a solicitation number to all requirements once the initial solicitation package has been received from the customer. The TIPSS Office announces all task order competitions via email to all eligible contract holders, unless one of the exceptions at FAR Sub Part 16.505(b)(2) applies. This announcement satisfies the requirement for a fair opportunity to be considered. It is the contractor’s responsibility to ensure that the TIPSS Office has the current email addresses for the company and the email accounts are able to receive the solicitations. Upon receipt of each solicitation, the contractor shall reply via email that they have received the solicitation within one business day.

Each contractor shall evaluate the solicitation and determine whether or not to submit a proposal. If a contractor chooses not to submit a proposal, they are required to submit an email indicating they are not proposing on the specific solicitation. The announcement will include, at a minimum, the following information:

(a) Solicitation Number;

(b) Date of Announcement;

(c) Customer Organization/Agency;

(d) Statement of Objectives (SOO) or Performance Work Statement (PWS) or Statement of Work (SOW);

(e) Instructions for submission of technical and cost/price proposals;

(f) Evaluation criteria and relative order of importance (if applicable);

(g) Anticipated Contract Type;

(h) Incumbent Contractor, if any;

In accordance with the Federal Acquisition Streamlining Act (FASA) and FAR Subpart 16.505(b)(2), the Contracting Officer will provide all awardees a “fair opportunity” to be considered for each order in excess of $3,000, unless one of the conditions below applies:

(1) the agency need for the particular services is of such urgency that providing all contract awardees an opportunity to be considered would result in unacceptable delays; or

(2) only one contract awardee is capable of providing the services at the level of quality required because the services to be ordered are unique or highly specialized; or

(3) the task order is to be issued on a sole source basis in the interest of economy and efficiency as a logical follow-on to an order already issued under the contract, if all awardees were given a fair opportunity to be considered for the original order; or

(4) it is necessary to place an order to satisfy a minimum guarantee.

The Contracting Officer will document the appropriate exception used to issue task orders under the Single Source Methodology. Any order contemplated under one of the exceptions identified above shall be reviewed and approved by the Chief, TIPSS Program Branch.

G.4.3 TASK ORDER PLACEMENT PROCESS

The TIPSS-4 Contract will provide a broad range of IT services for the Government. Based on the diverse nature of the work and highly differentiated requirements the Contracting Officer is required to exercise broad discretion as described by FAR Subpart 16.505(b). Major differences in the character of individual technical requirements will lead to different types of appropriate selection methodologies. The Contracting Officer and Lead COTR, in consultation with the TIPSS Management and the customer, will determine and use the procedures that are in the Government’s best interest. The following section outlines at a high level the standard process that will be used during task order competition.

(1) All task order requirements must be submitted to the TIPSS Requirements Development (RD) Facilitator. Customers may elect to call the TIPSS Hotline or submit an email with their requirements to the TIPSS inbox to begin the process. The RD Facilitator will walk the customer through the start-up package and the templates that will be used for the acquisition. Once the customer has submitted the draft acquisition package the RD Facilitator will forward the package for assignment by TIPSS Management. All task orders awarded by the TIPSS Office will be assigned a Contracting Officer (CO) and Lead COTR (LCOTR) to run the competition and source selection process.

(2) The CO and LCOTR will assist the customer in finalizing the documentation which includes, but not limited to: the SOO/PWS/SOW, Instructions to Offerors, Evaluation Factors, Source Selection Plan, Acquisition Plan, IGCE, etc. Performance based task orders will be used to the maximum extent practicable. Once all applicable internal reviews have been satisfied, the Contracting Officer will forward the solicitation package for release by the TIPSS Office to all eligible contractors. The CO will ensure that the task order solicitation contains all the required information identified in Section G.4.1 of the base contract. The Government may use any one of the task order solicitation types described below, or a combination thereof, for any requirement under the contract regardless of dollar or scope:

(a) REQUEST FOR TASK RESPONSE (RTR)

This procedure is used for requirements of low to moderate complexity and that have a low to moderate estimated dollar amount. Relatively common, well-known technology and the interest of multiple firms are usually involved. This procedure is anticipated to be used when most contract awardees possessing the required skills and technology should be able to perform successfully, and when minimum subcontracting is required. The solicitation package (i.e., the announcement) includes the e-mail to contractors, the RTR form containing the Instructions to Offerors and Evaluation Criteria, the SOO/PWS/SOW, and the Labor Hour Estimate Worksheet.

(b) REQUEST FOR TECHNICAL AND PROPOSAL (RTCP)

The RTCP is the most commonly used TO solicitation . A competitive procedure used for more complex acquisitions with moderate to high dollar amounts. The acquisitions under this procedure are expected to involve more complex skill sets, sophisticated technology, or major subcontracting effort. The effort may have a significant impact on the TIPSS customer organization and be critical to its success. The solicitation package (i.e., the announcement) includes the e-mail to contractors, the RTCP form containing the Instructions to Offerors and Evaluation Criteria, and SOO/PWS/SOW. The contractor’s response would include a technical and full cost/price proposal.

(c) REQUEST FOR INFORMATION (RFI) The RFI is similar to the RTR process. It is used to gather information on capabilities of TIPSS contractors’ abilities in specific task areas. The solicitation package (i.e., the announcement) includes the e-mail to contractors, the RTR form and the SOO/PWS/SOW. No awards will be issued as a result of an RFI.

(3) Contractors will be provided adequate time to prepare and submit responses based on the estimated dollar value and complexity of the proposed solicitation. The proposal due date will be set forth in each task order solicitation. The TIPSS Office will provide advanced notice of upcoming requirements either via email or on the TIPSS website. Additionally, the TIPSS Office will attempt to provide historical information and supporting documentation in advance of the actual solicitation whenever practicable. For example, if a new task order competition is to be held for work previously competed under TIPSS-3, the TIPSS Office may elect to release the previous SOW as historical documentation. If unable to perform a requirement, contractors shall submit an email indicating they will not be proposing on the specific task order solicitation.

(4) The task order solicitation will state whether an oral proposal is required in addition to, or instead of, written technical proposals. Responses will be streamlined and succinct, to the extent practical based on the estimated dollar value and complexity of the work, stating compliance or exception to requirements, risks, assumptions and conflict of interest issues. Responses will not be a proposal as defined in FAR Part 15, but only sufficient information to be considered in accordance with FAR Part 16. Proposals shall not merely restate SOO, PWS or SOW requirements. Both oral and written technical proposals shall address, as a minimum:

(a) Technical/Management Approach;

(b) Key Personnel Assigned;

(c) Quantities/Hours of Personnel by Labor Categories;

(d) Other Direct Costs (ODCs) (materials and supplies, travel, training, etc.);

(e) Risks;

(f) Period of Performance;

(g) Government-Furnished Equipment (GFE)/Government-Furnished Information (GFI);

(h) Security;

(i) Subcontracting; and

(j) Other Pertinent Data (e.g., potential conflict of interest issues).

A written cost/price proposal is required for all task order solicitations. Offerors shall comply with the stated instructions contained in the task order solicitation.

(5) Proposals will be evaluated in accordance with the evaluation factors identified in the task order solicitation. The basis of award shall be clearly identified in the specific task order solicitation. The Contracting Officer will conduct any discussions/negotiations, if needed, and resolve all outstanding issues prior to award. Task orders may be issued by email, regular mail, or facsimile using the agency prescribed form.

G 4.4

DEBRIEFINGS

The Contracting Officer shall conduct debriefings of unsuccessful offerors in accordance with FAR Sub Part 16.505(b)(4). All task order debriefs will be conducted orally either by conference call or in person at the discretion of the CO. The CO is not authorized to release source selection documentation to any offeror.

G 4.5

TASK ORDER PROTESTS

No protest under FAR Subpart 33.1 is authorized in connection with the issuance or proposed issuance of an TO under this contract, except as described in FAR Subparts 16.505(a)(9)(i)(A)&(B).

G 4.6

For purposes of reference, the Standard Form (SF) 1034/1035, "Public Voucher for Purchases and Services Other Than Personal" as required below shall be considered the contractor's voucher for the period, and shall be accompanied by detailed cost data sufficient to support all costs claimed. Submittal of SF 1034s/1035s, with proper detailed supporting documentation as described herein, will be considered an adequate basis for the Contracting Officer to judge whether or not the costs invoiced are allowable, allocable, and reasonable.

However, the contractor shall furnish any other supporting documentation deemed necessary by the Contracting Officer to complete the processing of any vouchers. In addition, the contractor may, at its option and consistent with its own billing practices, submit a voucher on its own letterhead as a supplement to the SF 1034/1035 and supporting documentation.

The term "billing" will henceforth be generically used to represent the total monthly claim for reimbursement, inclusive of the SF 1034/1035, supporting documentation, and contractor voucher, if submitted.

Adequate documentation includes, but is not limited to, the information listed below.

(Failure to submit the requested supporting documentation will result in a delay in payment. Missing invoice information will be considered incomplete and will be returned to the vendor.)

· Any receipts for other direct costs (ODC) included on the voucher; and

· Time Sheets identifying direct labor costs to match the project the contractor’s employee worked.

Though the IRS will function as the executive agency for this contract, payments under task orders fulfilling needs of organizations outside of the IRS will be made by the agency receiving the services. Each task order will specify the address to which billings shall be sent.

The contractor shall submit billings no more frequently than once monthly. Payment for actual work and services rendered under a given task order will be made on a monthly and provisional basis in accordance with the clause entitled, "Allowable Cost and Payment", FAR 52.216-7 (Dec 2002). As part of its monthly billings, the contractor shall render separate vouchers for each task order under which it claims reimbursement during the applicable billing period.

Agency technical personnel may only be contacted for the limited purpose of obtaining an understanding of the agency mission and the responsibilities relative to fulfilling that mission. Any such meetings between you and agency technical personnel are strictly informal discussions. You may not construe these discussions in any way as authority to begin contractual work performance.

In addition be advised that detailed discussions may also be limited, depending on the circumstances, by particular laws that govern the conduct of lobbying efforts in connection with the expenditure of Congressionally-appropriated funds (see Public Law 101-121, Restrictions on Lobbying), and that control the exchange of information in connection with procurements already underway (see Public-Law 101-189, Procurement Integrity).
