3. Page 112, Section L, Subfactor 2, paragraph 3.

Q: Will the government accept interim TS clearances for this example and for the GTACS II contract as a whole when staffing personnel?

A: The Government will evaluate interim TS clearances for Subfactor 2 paragraph 3 IAW the rating criteria specified in Section M of solicitation.

For performance under the GTACS II contract at the DO/TO level, interim TS clearances will not be considered.

4. Draft-RFP Page 113 (ii) Volume II Past Performance.

Q: Will the government modify the past performance to include an IDIQ, higher level contract vehicle, and/or collections of relevant task orders/delivery orders as a past performance example instead of just individual task orders?

This would allow a potential offeror to demonstrate more relevant size/scope/complexity to the GTACS II IDIQ then just past performance at an individual TO/DO level.

a. We recommend updating the section to the following: “Each Task Order under an IDIQ contract shall be considered a separate instance of Past Performance. Groups of Task Orders under an IDIQ contract shall be considered a separate instance of Past Performance if the Task Orders are delivered to the same Government customer for a single Program of Record.”

A: The Government will not change the Past Performance verbiage. As such, Prime offerors or major subcontractors may use individual task orders under a single-award IDIQ contract as separate instances of Past Performance.
