THIS REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL (RFP) WILL BE COMPETED AMONGST ONLY THOSE

OFFERORS THAT HOLD AN ENHANCED ARMY GLOBAL LOGISTICS ENTERPRISE (EAGLE)

BASIC ORDERING AGREEMENT (BOA) BY THE CLOSING DATE OF THIS RFP. THIS

ACQUISITION IS A COMPETITIVE SMALL BUSINESS SET-ASIDE ACQUISITION AND ONLY

BOA HOLDERS WHO CAN CERTIFY PARTICIPATION IN THE SMALL BUSINESS

ADMINISTRATION (SBA) UNDER NORTH AMERICAN INDUSTRY CLASSIFICATION SYSTEM

(NAICS) CODE 561210 BY THE CLOSING DATE OF THIS RFP WILL BE CONSIDERED FOR

AWARD.

A.1 The U.S. Army Fort Riley, KS (FRKS) has a requirement for logistics support services, including maintenance, supply, and transportation support.

A.2 This is an official RFP and supporting documentation for the FRKS requirement.

A.3 This RFP is a competitive small business set aside acquisition and will be competed among those Offerors that hold an EAGLE Program BOA who can certify small business status under NAICS Code 561210 by the closing date of this RFP. The Government will only evaluate proposals from Offerors that are certified by the SBA as a small business at the time of RFP closing. At the conclusion of evaluations, the Government will advise the SBA Servicing District Office of the apparent successful Offeror. The SBA Servicing District Office will confirm the eligibility of the apparent successful Offeror to receive the contract award.

This RFP will result in a Cost Plus Fixed Fee [Firm Fixed Price Transition In and Program Management (PMO)] task order with 1, 12 month base period, to include a 60 day transition-in period, 4, 1-year options, and 1, 6-month option period in accordance with (IAW) Revolutionary Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Overhaul (RFO) 52.217-8 for a total of 5 years and 6 months if all options are exercised. The evaluated option periods, which will be awarded at the Government's sole discretion, will be based on need and performance of contractors.

A.4 The period of performance for each Contract Line-Item Number (CLIN) from Notice to Proceed (NTP) through 1826 Days after NTP is identified below:

CLIN SERVICE PERIOD OF PERFORMANCE:

Base Year (includes 60-day Transition In): CLIN 0001 through 0010, NTP to 365 days after NTP

Option Year 1: CLINs 1001 through 1010, 366 days after NTP to 730 days after NTP

Option Year 2: CLINs 2001 through 2010, 731 days after NTP to 1095 days after NTP

W519TC26RA054

Option Year 3: CLINs 3001 through 3010, 1096 days after NTP to 1461 days after NTP

Option Year 4: CLINs 4001 through 4010, 1462 days after NTP to 1826 days after NTP

Option Period IAW FAR 52.217-8: CLINs 5001 through 5010, 1827 days after NTP to 2008 days after NTP

Transition and Fully Operational Capability (FOC) efforts are part of a single requirement and period of performance. All Transition efforts are still required to be completed within the first 60 days of performance; however, transition to FOC is part of a seamless process. The Contracting Officer may authorize proceeding into FOC as various elements of transition are complete prior to the end of the 60-day Transition period.

A.5 This Best Value source selection process will include an evaluation of the following three (3) factors: (1) Technical, (2) Past Performance, and (3) Cost/Price. A Task Order award under this EAGLE competition will be made to the Offeror determined to be responsible IAW RFO FAR subpart 9.1 whose proposal conforms to the RFP requirements and is determined to be the lowest evaluated (fair and reasonable) priced proposal that is determined Technically Acceptable with Substantial Confidence in Past Performance.

A.6 The Offeror's proposal shall be valid for 180 days from the closing date of the RFP.

A.7 The incumbent contractor is FITT Scientific, LLC under contract W52P1J-18-G-0041, delivery order W52P1J-22-F-0014.

A.13 This RFP and any amendments to this RFP shall be issued electronically. Because of this, the Government is under no obligation to maintain an Offerors mailing list. Any EAGLE BOA holders interested in this requirement must periodically access Contract Opportunities located at https://SAM.gov. Failure to provide proposals in accordance with the instructions/format specified in this RFP shall render the Offerors proposal non-compliant. The proposal will not be evaluated and will not be further considered for award.

A.14 The Government is not obligated to provide responses to any questions submitted by Offerors but will consider them and incorporate changes into the RFP as deemed necessary.

A.15 The closing date and time for this RFP is identified on page 1 of this RFP, the Local Time is Central Time. All proposal documents are due at the time set forth in this RFP.

A.16 Proposals shall be submitted electronically to james.r.ziwak.mil@army.mil and michael.d.

A.18 The Government will compare the Offeror's proposal to Section L in order to perform a strict compliance review. Failure to provide proposals in accordance with the instructions/format specified in this RFP shall render the Offerors proposal noncompliant. The proposal will not be evaluated and will not be further considered for award. The Government reserves the right to waive the Strict Compliance Review if it is in the Government's best interest.

A.19 NOT APPLICABLE

A.20 The Army Sustainment Command (ASC) may employ the services of a support contractor to assist in the management and oversight of ASC contracts. The contracted support provided by a support contractor is technical in nature, and in no way supplants the Governments exclusive responsibility for the decision making regarding contract management and oversight. The contract with ASC's support contractor prohibits the unauthorized use or disclosure of any of the information and data associated with ASC contracts in support of management and oversight responsibilities.

In the event ASC determines it will use a support contractor for management and oversight assistance, awardees shall work with the Contracting Officer and support contractor to establish appropriate agreements and proper protections (see RFO FAR 9.505-4(b)) allowing permission for the support contractor to have necessary access to information and data to assist ASC in its management and oversight for any associated contracts.

A.21 Organizational conflict of interest (OCI) means a situation in which

(1) A Government contract requires a contractor to exercise judgment to assist the Government in a matter (such as in drafting specifications or assessing another contractor's proposal or performance) and the contractor or its affiliates have financial or other interests at stake in the matter, so that a reasonable person might have concern that when performing work under the contract, the contractor may be improperly influenced by its own interests rather than the best interests of the Government; or

(2) A contractor could have an unfair competitive advantage in an acquisition as a result of having performed work on a Government contract, under circumstances such as those described in paragraph (1) of this definition that put the contractor in a position to influence the acquisition.

(3) If the Contractor identifies an OCI, the Contractor shall make a prompt and full disclosure in writing to the PCO. OCI that arise during performance of the contract, as well as newly discovered conflicts that existed before contract award, shall be disclosed.

A.22 Notice of OCI: ASC's support contractor, and any affiliates, subsidiaries, or subcontractors and any affiliates, subsidiaries, or subcontractors have OCIs, and are precluded from offering a proposal as either a prime or a subcontractor, or from participating as a member of any team competing for this contract and/or any other resultant contracts stemming from this RFP. The Government reserves the right to reject any offer it considers to represent an OCI. Offerors are directed to RFO FAR 9.5 for further information on OCIs for detailed OCI contract restrictions /requirements.

A.23 This is a Requirements Contract IAW RFO FAR 52.216-21 for the services specified in the PWS and workload data, and effective for the period of performance identified in Paragraph A.4.

A.24 The Estimated Total Contract Value (ETCV) is TBD (at award). The ETCV amount is NOT a ceiling price, but rather an ESTIMATE of the total 5 and a half years of performance under this contract.

A.25 NOT APPLICABLE

A.26 If an Amendment is deemed necessary for this RFP, the Amendment notice will be posted to Contract Opportunities as stated in Section A, Paragraph A.13. Please be advised that when an Amendment is posted to Contract Opportunities it will be listed on the bottom of the RFP notice.

A.27 All clauses and provisions identified within the EAGLE BOA are incorporated by addendum to this RFP.

A.28 Effective 17 July 2026, the Army Contract Writing System (ACWS) has officially superseded the Procurement Automated Data and Document System (PADDS) as the authorized system of record for the generation of Requests for Proposals (RFPs), subsequent contract awards, and all associated administrative contract actions. Consequently, this system migration requires the issuance of updated solicitation and award identification numbers. To ensure administrative consistency, all references to RFP No. W519TC-26-R-0011 throughout this solicitation- including all previously incorporated exhibits, attachments, and enclosures- are herby updated and replaced in their entirety with RFP No. W519TC-26-R-A054.

*** END OF NARRATIVE ***

C.1 EAGLE BUSINESS RULES STEP THREE TASK ORDER REQUEST

a. An Offeror must be a qualified BOA holder by the closing date of the RFP. The Government is under no obligation to place an order against an EAGLE BOA.

b. A Task Order becomes a binding contract at the time of the Government's acceptance of a Task Order proposal and award of a Task Order per RFO FAR 16.703-3(b)(4).

c. This Task Order is being competed among EAGLE BOA holders who hold a BOA at the time of the closing date of the RFP. No extensions to the RFP will occur for purposes of allowing interested Offerors additional time to become an EAGLE BOA holder. The Government will confirm that an Offeror is a qualified BOA holder by checking the effective date of an Offeror's BOA. Due to the complexity and the wide range of capabilities required by this Task Order, Joint Ventures (JVs) may be utilized; however, a JV offeror must be an approved BOA holder from Step Two in order to propose as a Prime on this Task Order solicitation, and the JV must comply with the applicable requirements of Title 13 of the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) (see Parts 121.103(h), 124.513, 128.402, 126.616, and 127.506).

d. In Step Two (i.e. BOA process), BOA holders were required to demonstrate the capability to perform all three functional areas; that technical capability may have been achieved with or without subcontractors. For this Task Order (Step Three), Offerors are not required to propose those same subcontractors that were used to establish technical capability in Step Two; however, the Offeror must propose itself and any subcontractors that are necessary for it to be able to meet the evaluation criteria and successfully perform the requirements of this Task Order.

e. The contractor shall adhere to the prices proposed and agreed to in the resultant task order issued against its BOA. The contractor is not authorized to begin work on an order issued against the BOA until prices have been established. In the event that the Contracting Officer requires work to begin prior to establishment of pricing, failure to reach agreement on price may be disputed under the Disputes clause.

f. The following sections submitted by the Offeror with its BOA proposal will be carried forward and incorporated by reference into this Step Three EAGLE Task Order contract:

BOA RFP Property Management Plan- Not Applicable

BOA RFP Resource / Task Order Management- Not Applicable

BOA RFP L.5.2.1.1(c) Flexible Staffing Approach

BOA RFP L.5.4.2.7 Transition-in Approach

BOA RFP L.5.2.1.1(b)(2)(iii) Identification of an onsite independent quality control

g. Failure to comply with any term of the Task Order, to include meeting small business subcontracting goals, may result in negative past performance that could negatively impact the BOA holder's ability to be successful in future Task Order competitions.

h. The Contractor may be required to enter into an Associate Contractor Agreement (ACA) with another contractor as part of the task order performance.

i. Responsibility determinations will be made at Step Three. An otherwise successful Offeror may not be eligible for award if it cannot be determined responsible for any of the reasons in RFO FAR 9.104, including capacity.

j. RESERVED

Joint Ventures (JV). Entities proposing as a JV are encouraged to specifically review 13 CFR 121.103, "How Does SBA Determine Affiliation?" subparagraph (h) (Affiliation based on joint ventures) prior to submitting a proposal. 13 CFR 121.103 provides several examples that may assist a prospective offeror in assessing whether affiliation could be applied to its JV. Note: In accordance with 13 CFR 121.103, a JV of two (2) or more business concerns may submit an offer as a small business without regard to affiliation so long as each concern is small under the size standard for NAICS 561210. In order for this affiliation exception to apply, however, the following conditions must be met: there must be a written JV agreement, the JV must do business under its own name and be identified in the System for Award Management (SAM), and the JV does not submit additional proposals after a two-year period starting from the date of award of the first contract award (note: a joint venture may be awarded one or more contracts within that two-year window, and may still receive awards after the two-year period has expired as long as the initial proposal was submitted prior to the end of the two-year period).

Subcontracting and Ostensible Subcontractors. Offerors proposing subcontracting arrangements at this Task Order level (Step Three) are encouraged to specifically review 13 CFR 121.103, "How Does SBA Determine Affiliation? (subparagraph (h)(3)) prior to submitting a proposal. A finding by the SBA of affiliation between an offeror and its subcontractor(s) may result in a determination that the Offeror is other than a small business and therefore ineligible for the SBSA Task Order award (if applicable). For SBSA solicitations, Offerors proposing subcontracting arrangements at the Task Order level (Step Three) may be required to explain which of its subcontractors are similarly situated subcontractors pursuant to the definition provided in 13 CFR 125.1 for purposes of determining whether the arrangement includes the use of any ostensible subcontractors and unduly reliant joint venture partners.

l. NOT APPLICABLE

C.2 CONTRACTOR PERFORMANCE MANAGEMENT REVIEW

a. Performance Management Review (PMR) - All tasks under this contract will be subject to periodic (not less than quarterly) PMRs. The Contractor will receive briefings on the PMR slide deck and be allowed the opportunity to submit a response. Corrective Action Request (CARs) / Nonconformance Reports (NCRs) will be reviewed during the PMR, if the Government deems them material. The Contractor's portion of the PMR presentation will consist of participating in conversations regarding work accomplished, evaluation of work against applicable program metrics (to include schedule), cost savings, lessons learned, forecasted staffing requirements based on anticipated workload, self-evaluations/inspection results, corrective actions, funding levels/contractor performance report (financial), and contractor-employee utilization rates.

Prior to the PMR the contractor will complete the following information on the slide deck (Exhibit H) and submit to the AFSB.

-Slides 5-9 (as applicable): The contractor will complete the "Contractor Self-Assessment" portion of the slide and also rate themselves using the ratings of "Green-Meeting Expectations" or "Amber Performance Concern" or "Red-Not Meeting Expectations."

-Slide 10: Contractor will fill out accidents/incidents/areas of concerns along with any comments for challenges, best practices and way ahead. Contractor will also report "close calls" to document lessons learned.

b. Contractor Performance Assessment: Currently, the Government uses an escalating system of deficiency reporting. Local deficiency reporting consists of: verbal notification and CARs. Verbal notification is primarily used for nonrepeating, minor nonconformance/discrepancies of tasks that can be reperformed at no additional cost to the government and with minimal impact to the effort.

A CAR will be issued when previous verbal notifications failed to result in corrective actions or when more/major nonconformance or significant deficiencies exist/occur. CARs are indicators of performance and will be used to substantiate the Government's Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS) input. Performance deficiencies may include any government-identified noncompliance with contract requirements; an activity or action did not take place, or did not take place to the standards of timeliness or quality required. Note, that while the contractor will be given the opportunity for re-performance when possible, significant deficiencies will nevertheless be documented. Use of this escalating deficiency reporting procedure does not, in any way, limit the Government's ability to take corrective action up to and including termination.

c. Contractor's Fixed Fee will be assessed for validated negative PMRs, unresolved CARs or as determined by the PCO IAW RFO FAR 52.246-5 using the following schedule:

Critical Nonconformance Contractor's fee will be assessed not less than 10% of the monthly fixed fee in which the critical nonconformance occurred. PCO determination will address the exact fee decrement based on severity, impact to the effort, contractor willingness to resolve and any other factors as deemed relevant by the PCO.

Unresolved CARs Contractor's fee will be assessed not less than 5% of the daily fixed fee starting with first day of delinquency in resolution. Fee reduction percentages are assigned as follows;

however, the PCO has the discretion to apply whatever percentage it deems reasonable based on severity, impact to the effort, contractor willingness to resolve and any other factors as deemed relevant by the PCO.

Percentage of Fee:

Critical: 10% and above (monthly)

Major: 710% (daily)

Minor: 57% (daily)

The Contractor will be given the opportunity to comment and respond to issued CARs during the PMR prior to the Government executing a fee decrement.

Definitions:

Critical nonconformance - a nonconformance that is likely to result in hazardous or unsafe conditions for individuals using, maintaining, or depending upon the supplies or services; or is likely to prevent performance of a vital agency mission. Repeated or unresolved major nonconformance will result in re-designation as critical nonconformance.

Major nonconformance - a nonconformance, other than critical, that is likely to result in failure of the supplies or services, or to materially reduce the usability of the supplies or services for their intended purpose. Repeated or unresolved minor nonconformance will result in re-designation as major nonconformance.

Minor nonconformance - a nonconformance that is not likely to materially reduce the usability of the supplies or services for their intended purpose, or is a departure from established standards having little bearing on the effective use or operation of the supplies or services.

Unresolved CAR - a CAR remaining unresolved, or unacknowledged, past the PCO established suspense date. May be re-designated as minor, major or critical based on the PCO independent determination.

Daily Fee - The yearly fixed fee amount divided by 12 months divided by 30 days.

C.3 PURCHASING AND INVOICING PROCEDURES

a. The Government and Contractor shall utilize the procedures outlined in the Purchasing and Invoicing Guide (Attachment 0009). This guide details the process that the United States Government (USG) will use to conduct and oversee contractor purchasing and invoicing on this task order. Each step in the process will be described in detail along with the responsibilities of each individual position. It is the intent of the Government that the process will be sufficient for detailed cost accounting and approval without negatively impacting the contractor's ability to provide Maintenance, Supply, and Transportation services at FRKS. If the process is found to negatively impact operations, it will be reevaluated by the USG and updated appropriately to achieve the desired effect.

b. Final invoice for the Transition In CLIN shall be submitted no later than seven days after the end of CLIN 0001's period of performance.

C.4 GOVERNMENT PROPERTY

a. In the event that Government property accountable to this contract is lost, damaged, destroyed or stolen, the Contractor shall promptly perform an investigation and provide a report to the Contracting Officer or the Contracting Officers representative IAW RFO FAR 52.245-1(f)(1)(vi) and RFO DFARS 252.245-7005 Management and Reporting of Government Property. The Contracting Officer shall review the Contractor's report and, if the Contracting Officer deems necessary, may perform an additional independent investigation in accordance with RFO FAR 52.245-1(g). In accordance with RFO FAR 52.245-1(g)(3) should it be determined by the Government that the Contractor's (or subcontractor's) property management practices are inadequate or not acceptable for the effective management and control of Government property under this contract, or present an undue risk to the Government, the Contractor shall prepare a corrective action plan and take all necessary corrective actions as specified by the schedule within the corrective action plan. The Contracting Officer may, in writing, revoke the Government's assumption of risk for loss, theft, damage or destruction, due to a determination under RFO FAR 52.245-1(g) that the Contractor's property management practices are inadequate, and/or present an undue risk to the Government, and the Contractor failed to take timely corrective action. If the Contracting Officer revokes the Government's assumption of liability and holds the Contractor liable, the Contractor may not charge the Government for the loss, theft, damage or destruction of Government property or any costs associated thereof except as provided in accordance with RFO

FAR 52.245-1(h)(1)(iii). The Contracting Officer may delegate the investigation to an appropriate Government representative of the Contracting Officer's choosing.

C.5 COST/PRICE CONTRACT EXECUTION

a. FEE RATE(s):

This is a Cost Plus Fixed Fee contract and thus, by definition, the fee is fixed at the DOLLAR amount proposed in the Cost/Price proposal. If, at any time during the life of this requirements task order (RFO FAR 52.216-21), a change order is necessary for modification of the requirements, the subsequent fee amount will be subject to a CAP based on the following fee RATES proposed in KTR NAME proposal dated XXX, in accordance with M.5.3.3 of the solicitation:

#% for all work self- performed, #% for subcontract work

Fee Rates: Contractor name proposal dated XXX included a fee rate(s) of XX% which is hereby capped as proposed for the life of this task order in accordance with M.5.3.3 of the Solicitation.

C.6 AbilityOne Program and/or 8(a) Contracts

a. Notwithstanding the inclusion of RFO FAR 52.216-21 in this task order, any maintenance, supply, and transportation tasks currently being performed by an AbilityOne contractor or an 8(a) contractor at FRKS, or subsequently determined appropriate for performance by an AbilityOne contractor or an 8(a) contractor, are not included within the scope of this EAGLE requirements Task Order.

C.7 POST AWARD CONFERENCE:

The Contractor agrees to attend any postaward conference convened by the contracting activity or contract administration office IAW FAR subpart 42.5.

G.2 Fixed Fee Withholds:

In accordance with RFO FAR Clause 52.216-8 Fixed Fee,

(a) The Government shall pay the Contractor for performing this contract the fixed fee specified in the Schedule.

(b) Payment of the fixed fee shall be made as specified in the Schedule; provided that the Contracting Officer withholds a reserve not to exceed 15 percent of the total fixed fee or $100,000, whichever is less, to protect the Government's interest.

H.11 Invoicing Practices and Procedures

H.12 Under the performance of this contract, the Government requires the Prime contractor invoice all costs incurred by the Prime Contractor and all subcontractors at any tier no later than 45 days after the costs are incurred. Incurred costs include direct labor, provisional indirect costs, fee, and expenditures authorized under Other Direct Costs (ODCs). Contractors shall remain in full compliance with RFO FAR Clause 52.216-7 including paragraph (b)(1)(i) which states that reimbursable costs must represent actual payments made for items or services purchased directly for contract performance.

H.13 In accordance with Contract Data Requirements List (CDRL) CD-02, incurred costs that have been incurred but not yet paid shall be accurately reflected in monthly CD-02 submissions.

The Government relies on reported CD-02 cost information, including Estimate at Completion projections, to support funding decisions and determine whether additional funding is required or excess funding may be deobligated.

H.14 To ensure efficient management of current-year appropriations, the Government intends to deobligate excess funding approximately 60 calendar days after the applicable period of performance end date. Note, there could be occasions, especially towards the end of the fiscal year, that the Government will deobligate projected excess current-year funding prior to the performance end date. Contractors are expected to invoice all allowable incurred costs within the timeframe identified above and should not anticipate requests for additional current-year funding following deobligation actions for direct labor or ODCs. Requests for additional funding associated with indirect rate adjustments may still be considered following completion of a Government incurred cost audit.

H.15 Prime Contractors are responsible for ensuring all invoices and payment requirements are flowed down to subcontractors at every tier. Failure to comply with invoicing or payment requirements may result in revised payment terms and conditions.
