A.3 Acquisition Source Selection Interactive Support Tool (ASSIST):

5 24

Name of Offeror or Contractor:

PIIN/SIIN MOD/AMD

During the conduct of this acquisition, the Acquisition Source Selection Interactive Support Tool (ASSIST) will be used by the

Government to support the proposal evaluation and source selection process. A separate tool, the ASSIST2Industry, will be used in conjunction with ASSIST to accomplish all exchanges with Offerors after receipt of proposals pursuant to Federal Acquisition Regulation

(FAR) 15.306. ASSIST2Industry provides the ability for the Government to issue, and the Offerors to receive and respond to, all

Evaluation Notices (ENs) in a secure online environment. In order to initiate the use of ASSIST2Industry, the Government requires the names, company titles, telephone numbers, and email addresses of two (2) individuals that the Offeror has designated as responsible for receiving and responding to Government ENs through ASSIST2Industry website.

The designation of two (2) individuals is for the purpose of ensuring availability of at least one individual to receive and respond to

Government Evaluation Notices (ENs) sent to the offeror via the ASSIST2Industry website. The required information regarding these two

(2) individuals must be submitted with the Offerors proposal and included in the cover letter. After the solicitations closing date, the

Government will establish an account in ASSIST2Industry for each individual identified by the Offeror that has submitted a proposal in response to this solicitation. The two individuals named by the Offeror will be authorized access to that account.

Two (2) separate system generated emails will be sent to each individual. One of the emails will contain the individual's

ASSIST2Industry username. The other email will contain the temporary password. Using the provided username and temporary password, each individual can then go to https://ASSIST2Industry.army.mil to access the account. NOTE: The first time a user logs in, the user will be required to change the temporary password before the user can proceed to use the site.

Whenever the Government issues ENs to the Offeror through ASSIST2Industry, the Governments Contracting Officer will notify the Offeror through a medium independent of ASSIST2Industry ( e.g., e-mail) that the Offeror has ENs in ASSIST2Industry waiting for a response.

There will be no ENs in ASSIST2Industry until such notice is issued by the Contracting Officer. Offerors can contact the ASSIST2Industry helpdesk at (609) 562-7050 or (609) 562-7031 for any technical assistance that may be needed.

THE OFFERORS ARE CAUTIONED THAT THE SYSTEM GENERATED EMAILS REFERRED TO ABOVE ARE INTENDED FOR ADMINISTRATIVE PURPOSES ONLY. RECEIPT OF

THESE EMAILS DOES NOT CONSTITUTE THE COMMENCEMENT OF ANY TYPE OF EXCHANGE WITH THE OFFEROR IN ACCORDANCE WITH FAR 15.306(A),(B),OR(D).

(I.E., CLARIFICATIONS, COMMUNICATIONS, ORDISCUSSIONS) . ALSO, RECEIPT OF THESE EMAILS DOES NOT SIGNIFY THAT A COMPETITIVE RANGE

DETERMINATION IN ACCORDANCE WITH FAR 15.306(C) HAS BEEN MADE OR THAT THE OFFERORS PROPOSAL WILL BE INCLUDED IN THE COMPETITIVE RANGE

WHEN THAT DETERMINATION IS MADE.

ALL NOTIFICATIONS THAT ANY TYPE OF EXCHANGE WITH THE OFFEROR HAS COMMENCED AND THE OFFEROR HAS EVALUATION NOTICES (ENS) AVAILABLE TO

RESPOND TO, OR ANY NOTIFICATION THAT THE OFFERORS PROPOSAL HAS BEEN INCLUDED IN OR EXCLUDED FROM THE COMPETITIVE RANGE, WILL BE SENT TO

THE OFFEROR BY THE CONTRACTING OFFICER INDEPENDENTLY OF THE ASSIST2INDUSTRY.

A.4 This is not an up-armor or armor application program. The IAC Modification Kit production contract will provide the MLRS vehicle with a newly constructed armored cab upgrading the entire cab design in order to better protect crew members. The contract is a "build to print" effort, using the Government-provided Technical Data Package (TDP). The Government provided design has completed testing and manufacturer modifications are not required.

The TDP contains all required information to manufacture the IAC Modification Kit (Cab Structure Kit and all necessary sub kits), as well as some information regarding the integration of the IAC kit onto the MLRS launcher vehicle. However, the scope of this contract is to manufacture and deliver the modification kits to the Government with the cab shell completed with the sub-kits listed below assembled and installed. The remaining sub kits must be installed during integration. The contractor will not integrate the kit onto the launcher vehicle.

The all-encompassing IAC Modification Kit is comprised of many sub-kits and sub-assemblies. The major effort of the contractor will be to purchase all kit parts, manufacture (cut, weld, and assemble) the cab structure, and to install four of the sub-assemblies into the cab structure. The remaining, uninstalled sub-assembly and sub-kits will be delivered to the Government along with the cab structure assembly. The sub-assemblies are listed below, each with a designation of whether it is installed by the contractor into the cab structure or delivered as an uninstalled sub-assembly.

Sub-assemblies to be installed into the Cab Assembly (12555410):

12555510 CAFU Installation

12555570 Personnel Access Doors Installation

12555680 Thermal Insulation Installation

12555430 Cab, Machined

Sub-assembly not to be installed into the Cab Assembly (12555410) but to be delivered with the remaining IAC sub-kits as listed in

(Attachment 0010) IAC Drawing Tree:

12555540 Cab Window Installation

Procedure Qualification Records will be considered non-responsive and receive no further consideration.
