It is the Offerors responsibility to submit a well-written proposal, with adequately detailed information, which clearly demonstrates full understanding of and the ability to comply with the solicitation requirements. The Government will NOT assume the duty to search for data not found in proposals.

H.2.5 For the Technical Performance Volume, the Offeror shall provide a narrative describing the Offerors proposed design approach to delivering an M870A4 that meets the contract requirements of Attachment 001, ATPD 2395 and the performance levels proposed by each contractor for the initial award, which are listed in the acceptance appendix. The Technical Performance Volume may include text, photos, illustrations and model or drawing extracts, and shall be no more than 50 pages for the contractor's single solution. Proposed trailers which fail to meet the ATPD and the performance levels proposed by each contractor for the initial award, which are listed in the acceptance appendix will not be considered.

H.2.5.1 Substantiating data shall be in the form of Government, third party or Offeror test data and reports; commercial literature, manufacturers specification sheets, parts lists, certified modeling and simulation data, 2-D Computer Aided Design (CAD) drawings, schematics, engineering analysis, historical information, analytical support, safety confirmations, material release information, photos, videos, design documentation and rationale. Government test data and reports for the same design configuration that is being offered will be considered the most credible form of substantiating data. All other forms of substantiating data will be considered less credible. Any substantiating data for a design configuration which meaningfully varies from the offered design configuration may be considered less credible.

H.2.5.2 Substantiating data shall be complete, specific, and relevant only to the specific performance levels proposed to be achieved by the Offeror for each requirement. If the substantiating data for one requirement is the same as data cited for another requirement, then reference the previously provided data and do not provide duplicate data.

H.2.5.3 The technical performance factor section of the contractors FOSR shall address the contractors planned mitigation for deficiencies identified during (a) the Phase I PPT (E.4) and the subsequent Final Failure Analysis Corrective Action Reports (FACARs)
