SUMMARY OF CHANGES

SECTION SF 1449 - CONTINUATION SHEET

The following have been modified:

ADDENDUM TO 52.212-1

Instructions, Conditions, and Notices to Offerors

I. Proposal Preparation Instructions

A. Proposal Submittal and Inquiries

1. Due to the situation surrounding COVID-19 and DoD guidance, Offerors will be required to e-mail their proposal documents to the Contracting Officer and Contract Specialist at the following email addresses:

Jeffery.d.harris.civ@army.mil and Michael.j.vicory.civ@army.mil. Should the files be too large to e-mail the Offeror will use the Contracting Communication Module in Procurement Integrated Enterprise Environment (PIEE) https://piee.eb.mil/ for the submission of their proposal. The Offerors e-mail submission or submission through the Contracting Communication Module in PIEE must be made no later than (NLT) the closing date and time specified in Box 8 of the SF1449.

2. The point of contact responsible for providing additional information and answering all inquiries is the Contracting Officer via the Contract Specialist. All questions or concerns regarding this solicitation shall be submitted in writing to the Contracting Officer and Contract Specialist at the following email addresses:

Jeffery.d.harris.civ@army.mil and Michael.j.vicory.civ@army.mil.

3. SITE VISIT. A site visit will be held at Sand Hill Recreation Center, building 3308, 41st Infantry Regiment, Fort Benning, GA 31905 on 1 March 2023 beginning 10:00 am EST. There will be a tour of facilities and short briefing conducted during the site visit. The purpose of the site visit is to allow Offerors to see the site and to Offeror make notes of questions for submission to the Contracting Officer later. Prospective Offerors are highly encouraged to attend the site visit. Remarks and explanations provided by Government representatives during the site visit shall not change the terms of the RFP. Any change to the RFP terms will be conveyed through an amendment to the RFP.

Failure to attend the site visit will not disqualify the Offeror; however, the Offeror acts at its own risk and will not be relieved from complying with the terms and conditions of any resultant contract by reason of such failure. In no event will a failure to inspect the site constitute grounds for a claim after award of a contract.

Offerors are limited to two (2) attendees per firm due to room space limitations. Offerors must notify the Contracting Officer and Contract Specialist, by electronic mail no later than 2:00 PM CST on 27 February 2023, if attending the site visit. Include in the Subject Line: “W5168W-23-R-0003, Fort Benning FFS Site Visit.”

Notification shall include full name, company, email address and phone number. If no response is received, the conference may be cancelled. No other pre-proposal conference will be scheduled. Attendance is at the expense of the Offerors. The Government cannot guarantee access to Fort Benning, GA at any other time.

Attendees must arrive on time to be included in the site visit. The visit will start promptly at 10:00 AM EST and anyone arriving after that time will be denied admission. Be advised that Fort Benning, GA is a limited access installation, and people entering its gate are subject to entrance requirements and possible search. Attendees must arrange their travel to accommodate for these procedures. It is the responsibility of the Offeror to gain access to the Government installation. All Fort Benning visitors who do not possess a military identification card or Common Access Card (commonly called a CAC card and issued to government employees and authorized contractors) must mailto:Gary.l.stevens.civ@army.mil undergo a computer background check of individual records through the National Crime Information Center prior to gaining entry to the proving ground. These checks are conducted by Fort Benning's Visitor Control Center when receipt of the Visitor Request Form is received. All visitors must also possess: 1) Driver's license; 2) Vehicle registration; 3) Proof of insurance.

To request an access pass to post, you can go to one of two Visitor Control Centers.

The Lindsey Creek Visitor Control Center (VCC) is open 24 hours a day to include holidays.

The Contractor Visitor Control Center (CVCC) is located on 8th Division Road in Harmony Church and is open Monday to Friday 6 a.m. to 2 .pm. The CVCC is closed nights, weekends, and holidays.

If you go to one of the Visitor Control Centers, the process will take approximately 5-8 minutes per person, so please allow for extra time when making travel plans.

Offerors shall submit all comments and/or questions in writing to be answered later. Comments and/or questions asked during the site visit shall also be submitted in writing. This will ensure all Offerors have the same opportunity to receive a correct and accurate answer. This also removes any risk of an incorrect answer being provided verbally without verifying its accuracy in writing later. All comments and/or questions must be submitted via a SINGLE email per Offeror, preferably in a Microsoft Word document attached to the e-mail.

At the site visit, there will be no cameras, audio recordings, or videotaping or other recordings allowed, except that done by the Government. Cellular phones with cameras are allowed, but no pictures are permitted to be taken.

All Technical Questions are due No Later Than (NLT) 8 March 2023, 12:00 PM CST. Offerors will submit questions in writing to Contracting Officer and Contract Specialist through Jeffery.d.harris.civ@army.mil and Michael.j.vicory.civ@army.mil. The Government will answer questions received until due date and time listed above and provide responses to interested parties via System for Award Management (SAM) website at https://sam.gov/content/home. Questions received after this date may not be answered.

Offerors are required to meet all solicitation requirements, including terms and conditions, representations and certifications, and technical requirements in addition to those identified as evaluation factors and subfactors. Failure to meet a requirement may result in an offer being ineligible for award in the absence of discussions. The contracting officer has determined there is a high probability of adequate price competition in this acquisition. Upon examination of the initial offerors, the contracting officer will review this determination, and if adequate price competition exists, no additional cost information will be requested.

2. This procurement is subject to the Randolph-Sheppard Act (R-SA), 20 U.S.C. §107, Operation of Vending Facilities and 34 CFR §395.33, Operation of Cafeterias by Blind Vendors, which establishes a priority for blind persons recognized and represented by the State Licensing Agency (SLA), in the award of contracts for the operation of cafeterias on federal facilities. Accordingly, although the solicitation is set-aside 100% for small business, the State Licensing Agency will also be permitted to submit a proposal in accordance with 34 CFR 395.33(b). This notice is not designed to discourage competition rather, it notifies all potential offerors that the priority established by the R-SA for proposals received from SLAs and their blind vendors is applicable to this procurement.

3. The selection of an offeror for award purposes will be conducted utilizing Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Part 12 (Acquisition of Commercial Items) in conjunction with FAR Part 15 (Contracting by Negotiation). Offers will be evaluated using the criteria under the Addendum to 52.212-2 Evaluation-Commercial Items. Award will be made to a single offeror whose timely offer is deemed responsible IAW FAR, whose proposal conforms to the solicitation requirements and whose proposal, judged by an overall assessment of the evaluation criteria and other considerations specified in this solicitation, represents the Lowest Priced Technically Acceptable (LPTA) offer, or to https://sam.gov/content/home the SLA under the R-SA priority pursuant to the procedures outlined in this solicitation. The source selection steps are delineated in the addendum to 52.212-2.

4. By submission of its offer, the offeror agrees to all solicitation requirements, including terms and conditions, representations and certifications, and technical requirements to include those identified specifically as evaluation factors and subfactors. Failure to meet a requirement may result in an offer being eliminated from competition.

5. Noncompliance with the Request for Proposal (RFP) requirements may hamper the Government’s ability to properly evaluate the proposal and may result in elimination of the proposal from further consideration for contract award.

6. Proposals shall remain valid for 120 days following the date specified for receipt of offers.

7. Instructions outlined in paragraph C below, prescribes the format for the proposal and describes the approach for the development and presentation of proposal data.

The offeror is reminded that the Government reserves the right to award this effort based on the initial proposal, as received, without discussions.

9. IAW FAR 4.8, Government Contract Files, the Government will retain one copy of all unsuccessful proposals.

10. All referenced documents for this solicitation are available on the System for Award Management (SAM) website at https://sam.gov/content/home. Potential offerors are encouraged to subscribe for real-time email notifications when information has been posted to the website for this solicitation.

Failure to follow the Contract Proposal preparation instructions may cause your proposal to be deemed unacceptable by the Government. Volume I shall be organized as follows and contain the identified information.

TAB A. Exceptions/Assumptions (if required) – Identification and explanation of any exceptions or deviations. Additionally, any assumptions used in the proposal preparation must be identified. See paragraph C.3.b.

TAB B. Solicitation, Offer and Award – The SF 1449 shall be submitted fully completed. The offeror is cautioned that the SF 1449 must contain an original signature in Block 30a of the form.

Representation, Certification, and Other Statements of Offerors – The offeror shall ensure that corresponding Representation, Certifications, and Other Statements of Offerors are submitted fully completed with all blocks in each certification/representation completed truthfully and completely.

TAB F. Property Management Plan (PMP) - Offerors shall submit a PMP IAW FAR 52.245-1, Government Property, and PWS paragraph 5.4. Note: Although the plan is required, it will not be included in the source selection evaluation or be considered in the basis for award.

b. Volume II – Technical Volume.

(1) The Technical Volume shall be clear, concise, and include sufficient detail for effective evaluation and for substantiating the validity of stated claims in the Offeror’s proposal. The responses will be evaluated against the Technical Capability Factor and Subfactor defined in the Addendum to 52.212-2 Evaluation-Commercial Items.

Offerors are cautioned that “parroting” of the Technical requirements or the PWS with a statement of intent to perform does not reflect and understanding of the requirement or the capability to perform. Statements that the offeror understands, can, or will comply with the PWS (including referenced publications or technical data); and phrases such as “standard procedures will be employed” or “well known techniques will be used” etc., will be considered unacceptable. Offerors are responsible for including sufficient details to permit a complete and accurate evaluation of each proposal. Offerors shall assume that the Government has no prior knowledge of their technical capabilities and past experience and will base its evaluation on the information presented in the offeror’s proposal.

See Table 2 for page limits associated with the proposal.

(2) The section shall be prepared in an orderly format and in sufficient detail to enable the Government to make a thorough evaluation of the contractor’s technical competence and ability to comply with the contract task requirements specified in the PWS.

(3) The volume shall be organized according to the following general outline.

Tab A – Table of Contents

Tab B – List of Tables and Drawings Tab C – Cross Reference Matrix Tab D – Factor 1 Technical Capability

(4) Additional information specific to Tab D of the Technical Volume follows:

TAB D. Technical Capability.

Subfactor 1 – Staffing Plan. The staffing plan shall include proposed staffing by labor categories to perform the required services in each building listed in the PWS and Solicitation Attachment F - Estimated Workload Data - Capabilities - 20230202. Offerors shall utilize the Solicitation Attachment H - FBGA Staffing Matrix - 20230202, for depicting their staffing. Offerors are only required to complete the Staffing Matrix for CLINs/SubCLINS contained Attachment G - FBGA Pricing Matrix - 20230203.

In addition to completing the Staffing Matrix, offerors shall provide rationale for their staffing for the applicable dining facilities to specifically address the following:

(a) Explain the logic for the staffing (FTEs x labor categories) for not only during serving times, but for hours before and after serving times.

(b) Rationale for staffing to ensure successful continuous operations of all PWS tasks during feeding times (to include as patrons/units rotate through the facility). Rationale needs to include their methodology for accommodating fluctuating meals within the bands, cross-utilization of personnel and minimizing employee turnover.

c. Volume III – Past Performance. The Past Performance evaluation will be accomplished by reviewing aspects of an offeror’s recent Past Performance, focusing on, and targeting performance which is relevant to the services being procured under this solicitation.

Past performance information described herein is required on the offeror and all subcontractors, teaming partners, and/or joint venture partners proposed to perform 25% of the proposed effort based on the total proposed price. The offeror shall submit, along with the information required in this paragraph, a consent letter executed by each subcontractor, teaming partner, and/or joint venture partner, authorizing release of adverse past performance information to the offeror so the offeror can respond to such information. For each identified effort for a commercial customer, the offeror shall also submit a client authorization letter, authorizing release to the Government of requested information on the offeror’s performance.

(1) The offeror shall include documentation regarding their relevant past performance as it directly relates to the work being procured under this solicitation. The offeror SHALL NOT go back more than 3 years from the date of the solicitation for the submitted data. This factor is designed for the offeror to show a history of successful performance of similar work. For any contracts that did not/do not meet original schedule or technical performance requirements, provide a brief explanation of the reason(s) for the shortcomings and any corrective action(s) taken to avoid recurrence. The offerors shall list each time the delivery schedule was revised and provide an explanation of why the revision was necessary. All Requests for Deviation and Requests for Waiver shall be addressed with respect to causes and corrective actions. The offerors shall also provide copy of any Cure Notices or Show Cause Letters received on each contract listed and a description of any corrective action implemented by the offeror or proposed subcontractor, teaming partners, and/or joint venture partners. The offerors shall indicate if any of the contracts listed were terminated and the type and reasons for the termination.

(2) In conducting the Past Performance evaluation, the Government reserves the right to use both the information provided in the offeror’s Past Performance Volume and information obtained from other sources available to the Government to include, but not limited to, the Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS), Federal Awardee Performance and Integrity Information System (FAPIIS), Electronic Subcontractor Reporting System (eSRS) or other databases; and may be obtained from other sources available to the Government, such as the Defense Contract Management Agency; and interviews with program managers, contracting officers, and/or fee determining officials. Offerors are reminded that both independent data and data provided by offerors in their proposals may be used by the Government to evaluate offeror past performance.

However, the burden of providing thorough, complete, and current past performance information as requested in this paragraph remains with the offerors. Proposals that do not contain the information requested in this paragraph may result in elimination of the proposal from further consideration for contract award. All past performance comments received will be taken into consideration and could affect the overall rating. In the case of an offeror without a record of relevant past performance or for whom information on past performance is not available or so sparse that no meaningful past performance rating can be reasonably assigned, the offeror may not be evaluated favorably or unfavorably on past performance (IAW FAR 15.305(a)(2)(iv)). Therefore, the offeror shall be determined to have unknown (or neutral) past performance. In the context of acceptability/unacceptability, a neutral rating shall be considered acceptable.

(3) Submission Requirements. The offeror shall submit a Past Performance Volume containing the following:

Table of Contents

Summary Page describing the role of the offeror and each subcontractor, teaming partner, and/or joint venture partner that the offeror is required to provide Past Performance specific relevant contract reference sheets for the past performance experience IAW Attachment L.

Consent Letters executed by each subcontractor, teaming partner, and/or joint venture partner, authorizing the release of past performance information so the offeror can respond to such information. A sample consent letter can be found at Attachment K.

Client Authorization Letters for each identified effort for a commercial customer authorizing release to the Government of requested information on the offeror’s performance.

Specific Relevant Contracts Format. Complete sheets IAW Attachment L and ensure that the submission is limited to 10 pages per reference. The offeror shall provide documentation outlining the offeror’s past performance with contracts, as a prime or as a subcontractor, which is the same or similar in nature, size, and complexity to the services being procured under this solicitation. The submittal shall include rationale supporting assertion of relevance and how it is determined that the work previously performed is the same or similar in nature, size, and complexity to the work specified by this solicitation. Offerors are required to explain what aspects of the contracts are deemed relevant to the proposed effort, and to what aspects of the proposed effort they relate.

Past Performance Questionnaire – See Attachment M - Past Performance Questionnaire. The offeror shall forward a copy of the Past Performance Questionnaire for each of the contracts identified on the specific relevant contract reference to the points of contact responsible for monitoring performance. The points of contact shall return the questionnaires directly via email to the Contracting Officer and Contract Specialist at the following email addresses: through Jeffery.d.harris.civ@army.mil and Michael.j.vicory.civ@army.mil no later than the proposal due date. Questionnaires not submitted directly to the Contracting Officer or Contract Specialist will not be reviewed and evaluated. The information contained in the properly executed and returned questionnaires will be used to evaluate the offeror’s past performance. New entities that have no past customers shall annotate on the Summary Page that they have no previous clients and that the minimum number of questionnaires cannot be provided.

d. Volume IV – Price. The offeror shall provide a price for each CLIN included in the Schedule of Supplies/Services of the Solicitation. The offer shall complete the pricing matrix, (Attachment G - FBGA Pricing Matrix - 20230203) and shall provide a price for each CLIN/SubCLIN in the pricing matrix (Attachment G - FBGA Pricing Matrix - 20230203). Offerors are required to submit a unit price and extended amount (estimated quantity X Unit Price = Extended Amount) for each Building within the Pricing Matrix (Attachment G - FBGA Pricing Matrix

- 20230203) (for SubCLINs that do not contain an estimated quantity the offeror shall simply insert a Unit Price only). The offerors shall utilize the extended CLIN pricing from the pricing matrix (Attachment G - FBGA Pricing Matrix - 20230203) to price the applicable CLIN in the Schedule of Supplies/Services of the Solicitation.

The offeror shall ensure prices are represented in whole dollars only. The offeror shall include in their pricing matrix (Attachment G - FBGA Pricing Matrix - 20230203) a breakdown by each labor category subject to the SCA WD and/or CBA the basic hourly labor rates being paid. The Government reserves the right to request other data if the Government deems it necessary to determine price reasonableness.

(1) Offerors are required to submit prices for Phase-in, Project Management and each dining facility in the Schedule of Supplies/Services of the Solicitation and Attachment G - FBGA Pricing Matrix - 20230203. As part of price evaluation, the Government will evaluate its option to extend services (FAR 52.217-8) by adding six (6) months of the offeror’s final ordering year price to the offeror’s total price.

(2) The offeror is informed that Department of Labor Wage Determination is applicable to this requirement, see Solicitation Attachment P – Wage Determination - 20221227.
