Sheet1 43 We have been unable to access the data provided to us through the IR. Do you have status of when this information will be available to the vendors? The correct site is: https://ir-registration.sd.spawar.navy.mil. This site requires PKI or ECA certificate.
Due to new Navy hosting requirements, the old URL (http://ir-public.jpeojtrs.mil/) is no longer supported. See Amendment 0005 which updates the web site address in attachment 0011.
44 Performance Work Statement for the Army Soldier Radio Waveform (SRW) Appliqué Radio System - Basic Award - Section 5.3.7.1.4, “(o) External Co-Site Mitigation Filter shall be provided as a separate part. A separate filter for each specified pass band shall be available. The co-site mitigation filter specification can be obtained from the Contracting Officer.” Request the co-site filter mitigation specification be provided as soon as possible due to the quick turnaround for the proposal submission. The co-site mitigation filter specification is not available for release at this time. The following language is added to the SRW Basic PWS at 5.3.7.1.4: "...can be obtained from the Contracting Officer when it is required on a future Delivery Order". See Amendment 0005 for the updated Attachment 0005 SRW Basic PWS.
45 Page 188 of the RFP, Clause at I-133 calls out DFARS Clause 252.234-7002 Earned Value Management System and the PADDS Errata Sheet attachment, page 30 calls out DFARS Clause 234-7001 Notice of Earned Value System. Neither of these clauses is applicable to the Firm Fixed Portion of the solicitation, nor are they appropriate for the CPFF services required. Please clarify which one of these clauses will be applicable to the resultant IDIQ contract and for which specific CLINs. EVM would not be applicable to the FFP portion of the contract since it is not developmental work.
EVM would not be applicable to the CPFF portions outlined in the current PWS' of the RFP since the requirements are entirely level-of-effort in nature.
