SECTION L - INSTRUCTIONS, CONDITIONS, AND NOTICES TO OFFERORS

L.1. GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS

L.1.1. These instructions provide guidance for preparing proposals in response to Solicitation W519TC-26-R-0023. The U.S. Government intends to award one Firm Fixed Price (FFP) contract to the responsible Offeror whose proposal is compliant with the terms and conditions of the solicitation and determined to be the best value to the U.S. Government based on the tradeoff source selection in accordance with FAR 15.103-1 with specific instructions laid out in Sections L and M of this solicitation.

L.1.2. The U.S. Government intends to award without discussions, therefore, each initial offer should contain the Offeror's best terms for award of a contract under this solicitation. However, the U.S. Government reserves the right to open discussions. In the event the

U.S. Government determines discussions are necessary, offerors will be asked to respond to all Evaluation Notices (ENs). Responses to

ENs will be in narrative form. Once all ENs have been answered, the PCO will close discussions and request Final Proposal Revisions

(FPRs). If FPRs are requested by the PCO, offerors may revise any portion of the proposal if they choose and include them in the FPR.

Proposals shall be specific, complete and address each of the designated factors listed below. Failure to provide the required information and/or documentation in response to these instructions may result in the proposal being rejected.

L.1.3. Each offeror shall provide the information as required by this solicitation (including attachments and exhibits) in the proper format. Proposals must contain all information as required by the solicitation and should be put in the format as described herein.

Proposals that do not contain all of the information requested in this solicitation risk being determined unacceptable by the U.S.

Government. The U.S. Government will not assume the offeror possesses any capability, understanding, or commitment not specified in the proposal.

L.1.4. Proposal must be submitted electronically via DoD SAFE to the email addresses listed below by the closing date and time listed in this solicitation.

Ms. Emily Kundel, emily.a.kundel.civ@army.mil

L.1.5. Use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in Proposal Evaluation

L.1.5.1. Use of AI tools in Support of Evaluations: The Government may employ AI as a tool to assist in the analysis and review of offeror proposals.

L.1.5.2. Maintaining Inherently Governmental Functions: Notwithstanding the use of AI tools to support the evaluation process, all final evaluation judgements, including the assignment or assessment of adjectival ratings, best value determinations, and source selection decisions, will be made exclusively by duly appointed Government personnel. The Government retains sole responsibility for all inherently governmental functions and will not delegate decision making authority to any AI tool.

L.1.5.3. Offeror Confidentiality and Data Protection: The AI tools utilized by the Government will be employed in a manner consistent with applicable regulations that govern the protection of proprietary and source selection sensitive information. The AI tool will be an output-only system. Any generated report data is not saved. No proposal data will be transmitted to or processed by external, non-Government systems without appropriate safeguards and authorizations in place.

L.1.6. This acquisition is limited to the qualified sources: a qualification package is required for new sources. See FAR Clause

52.209-1 for qualification requirements. Proposals from non-qualified sources will not be considered if a qualification package is not submitted and accepted by the U.S. Government prior to award, contract award will not be delayed for qualification.

SECTION M - EVALUATION FACTORS FOR AWARD

M.1. BASIS FOR AWARD

M.1.1. The U.S. Government will evaluate proposals submitted in accordance with this section and will make a determination considering the following factors: Technical, Past Performance and Price. A Trade Off Source Selection in accordance with FAR 15.103-1 will be utilized to select the successful offeror. Award will be made to the offeror that provides the best overall value to the U.S.

Government considering the evaluation criteria stated herein. If an offeror is rated as unacceptable in any factor, its proposal will not be considered for award. The U.S. Government anticipates awarding one FFP contract as a result of this solicitation.

M.1.2. The U.S. Government will determine if an offeror is a qualified source based upon the qualified vendor list, along with the submission of the qualification acceptance package, as described below in Section M.3.1.a.

M.1.3. The U.S. Government intends to award the resultant contract without discussions. The PCO may contact offerors for clarifications, as described in Revolutionary FAR Overhaul (RFO) FAR 15.202 and FAR 52.215-1, without opening discussions. However, the U.S. Government reserves the right to conduct discussions and to permit offerors to revise its proposal if determined necessary by the PCO.

a. If the PCO determines discussions are necessary, they will be held in accordance with RFO FAR 15.202.

M.1.4. Selection of the successful offeror will be made following an assessment of each proposal against the solicitation requirements and cited evaluation criteria. The criteria will be used to evaluate and assess the information provided by the offeror in response to the information required by Section M of the solicitation.

M.1.5. Number of Contracts Awarded

The Government intends to award one FFP contract. However, the Government reserves the right to award no contract at all, depending on the quality of the proposals, prices submitted, and the availability of funds.

M.1.6. Correction Potential of Proposals

The Government will consider, throughout the evaluation, the "correction potential" of any proposal uncertainty. The judgment of such

"correction potential" is within the sole discretion of the Government. If an aspect of an Offeror's proposal does not meet the

Government's requirements and is not considered correctable, the Offeror may be eliminated from the award.

M.1.7. Discussions

If it is determined to be in the best interest of the Government to hold discussions, Offeror responses to Evaluation Notices (ENs) and the Final Proposal Revision (FPR) will be considered in making the source selection decision.

M.2. EVALUATION FACTORS AND RELATIVE IMPORTANCE

M.2.1. Evaluation Factors

The following factors will be used to evaluate proposals:

Factor 1: Technical

Sub-factor 1: Qualification Acceptance Package

Sub-factor 2: Proposed Schedule

Factor 2: Past Performance

Factor 3: Price

M.2.2. Relative Order of Importance of Factors

In accordance with RFO FAR 15.104, all evaluation factors other than Price, when combined, are significantly more important than Price.

M.3. EVALUATION METHODOLOGY

M.3.1. Factor 1: Technical

Technical Rating: The technical evaluation will rate the quality of the Offeror's technical proposal to meet the U.S. Government's requirement. Sub-factor 1 will receive an acceptable or unacceptable rating. Technical sub-factor 2 will receive one of the color/adjectival ratings described in the DoD Source Selection Procedures, Table 2A Technical Rating Method, as shown below. The technical ratings focus on the strengths and deficiencies of the Offeror's proposal. The color/adjectival rating depicts how well the

Offeror's proposal meets the Technical sub-factor requirements. Subfactor ratings shall not be combined into an overall color/adjectival rating for the Technical factor.

a. Sub-factor 1: Qualification Acceptance Package (Acceptable / Unacceptable)

This sub-factor will be evaluated on an Acceptable/Unacceptable basis. The Offeror must provide a valid qualification acceptance letter

6 8

Name of Offeror or Contractor:

PIIN/SIIN MOD/AMD

signed by a U.S. Government Engineer or equivalent.

Rating Description

Acceptable Proposal meets the requirements of the solicitation.

Unacceptable Proposal does not meet the requirements of the solicitation.

**Note: An "Unacceptable" rating renders the proposal ineligible for award.

b. Sub-factor 2: Proposed Schedule (Adjectival/Color and Risk Rating)

This sub-factor will be evaluated to the degree which the schedule demonstrates a clear understanding of project scope, a reasonable approach to execution, and completeness. The evaluation will result in an adjectival/color rating and a separate technical risk rating.

The submission of the proposed schedule must be submitted in Adobe PDF (.pdf).

a. The proposed schedule must include a Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) which will be evaluated to determine if the project is broken into manageable work packages, provides insight into major phases and key activities and if major deliverables and project deadlines are identified and reasonable.

b. The proposed schedule must clearly identify milestones which will be evaluated to determine if major phases, key deliverables and logical progression of work are realistic

c. The proposed schedule must depict realistic durations for each of the identified tasks and work packages and provide logical timelines with historical data, industry best practices, or expert judgement for the overall project timeline.

Adjectival/Color Rating:

Color Rating Description

Blue Outstanding Proposal indicates an exceptional approach and understanding of the requirements and contains multiple strengths.

Purple Good Proposal indicates a thorough approach and understanding of the requirements and contains at least one strength.

Green Acceptable Proposal indicates an adequate approach and understanding of the requirements.

Yellow Marginal Proposal has not demonstrated an adequate approach and understanding of the requirements.

Red Unacceptable Proposal does not meet the requirements of the solicitation and, thus, contains one or more deficiencies and is unawardable.

Technical Risk Rating: Assessment of technical risk considers the risk associated with the proposed schedule, manifested by the identification of weaknesses.

Rating Description Technical Risk

Low Proposal may contain weakness(es) which have little potential to cause disruption of schedule or degradation of performance. Normal contractor effort and normal Government monitoring will likely be able to overcome any difficulties.

Moderate Proposal contains a significant weakness or combination of weaknesses which may potentially cause disruption of schedule or degradation of performance. Special contractor emphasis and close Government monitoring will likely be able to overcome difficulties.

High Proposal contains a significant weakness or combination of weaknesses which is likely to cause significant disruption of schedule or degradation of performance. Is unlikely to overcome any difficulties, even with special contractor emphasis and close Government monitoring.

Name of Offeror or Contractor:

PIIN/SIIN MOD/AMD

Unacceptable Proposal contains a material failure or a combination of significant weaknesses that increases the risk of unsuccessful performance to an unacceptable level.

M.3.2. Factor 2: Past Performance

M.3.2.1. The U.S. Government will not evaluate the current delivery schedule submitted against L.3.2.1. Rather, the U.S. Government will utilize the current delivery schedule to evaluate how feasible and realistic the proposed delivery schedule submitted in L.2.2 is when compared to obligations and timelines identified in the current delivery schedule. The contractor will not be held liable, evaluated negatively or positively, in any way, for the status or merits of their current delivery schedule. Rather, it will be used only as a baseline to ensure the proposed delivery schedule if feasible and realistic.

If the offeror does not have a current delivery schedule for TY61, an evaluation of the feasibility and realistic nature of the proposed delivery schedule compared to current obligations and timelines will not be conducted.

The PCO will crosswalk the current delivery schedule submitted for informational purposes only in Volume 1 - Technical against the delivery schedule evaluated under Volume 2 - Past Performance to ensure consistency across the Volume.

Rating Description

Relevant Present/Past Performance effort involved similar scope and magnitude of effort and complexities of this solicitation.

Not Relevant Present/Past Performance effort involved little or none of the scope and magnitude of effort and complexities of this solicitation.

**Recent is defined as an effort performed within the last three years.

M.3.3. Factor 3: Price

Only qualified Offerors who are deemed technically acceptable will have their price proposal evaluated. The price proposal will be evaluated for Reasonableness and Total Evaluated Price (TEP).

Reasonableness: The proposal will be evaluated using one or more of the techniques in FAR 15.404 to determine if it represents a price that a prudent person would pay in the conduct of competitive business. Reasonableness is established through adequate price competition, as described in FAR 15.404-1(b)(2)(i) or through price and cost analysis.

Total Evaluated Price (TEP): The U.S. Government will use the total price for all Contract Line Item Numbers (CLINs) to determine the

TEP for evaluation purposes.

M.3.4. Acknowledgements and Signatures

The U.S. Government will verify that the contractor has submitted a signed solicitation (SF33) and acknowledged all amendments by someone who is authorized to sign on behalf of the company. Failure to do so may result in the proposal being rejected as non-compliant.
