RFP: W56HZV-16-R-0099

A. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:____________________

1. SimBRS OVERVIEW: The objective of this procurement is detailed in paragraph C.2.1 of the scope of work in Section C of this solicitation, but in general the Government is looking for a contractor to design, enhance and deliver a family of computer simulation programs designed to predict the reliability and safety of Army ground vehicles from the design stage to the last stages of the vehicles' lives.

2. BUDGETARY ESTIMATE: The Government is soliciting for a one-year Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity contract, with four option years, under which individual projects will be scoped and funded by the issuance of Task Orders (TO) within the general contract scope.

Section C of this solicitation (see paragraph C.3 and following, in the Scope of Work) defines all of the capabilities desired of the winning contractor. The Government's maximum budgetary estimate over the five-year contract ordering period, if all options are exercised, is $79M, but the Government does not guarantee that this dollar amount, or any specific dollar amount, will be ordered over the course of the contract.

3. ACQUISITION STRATEGY: A full and open competition utilizing best value trade-off procedures will be used for the award of a single cost-reimburseable contract. All proposal submission requirements are located in Section L. All proposals shall clearly identify why acceptance of the proposal would be advantageous to the Government. Any proposed deviations from or exceptions to the requirements, terms, and conditions of the solicitation shall be clearly identified and explicitly defined and justified. Offerors are cautioned to consult the Contracting Officer IN WRITING before submitting an offer that proposes any deviations or exceptions to any of the requirements, terms, and conditions of the solicitation because it may be cause for rejection of the proposal.

B. NOTICE REGARDING SUBCONTRACTING: Offerors other than Small Businesses shall submit a Small Business Subcontracting Plan in accordance__________________________________ with FAR 52.219-9 (DEV) in Section I of this solicitation. The Small Business Subcontracting Plan must be a separate stand-alone file and be clearly labeled as the Small Business Subcontracting Plan. THIS SHALL NOT BE EMBEDDED IN ANY OTHER PROPOSAL VOLUME.

C. NOTICE REGARDING FILL-INS: Offerors shall note that this solicitation contains several clauses and provisions requiring a fill-in or____________________________ representation. Offerors shall note that there is an attachment in Section J (Attachment 0006) related to clause 252.227-7017 that must be completed and submitted as an attachment to your offer in accordance with said clause. Since a failure to complete these fill-ins may cause your offer to be determined ineligible for award, offerors shall carefully read and complete each such clause and provision.

D. PRICING INFORMATION: This solicitation includes a sample Task Order(TO) 001, which is listed as Attachment 0007 in Section J hereof.______________________

As part of its proposal in response to this solicitation, each offeror is required to submit a proposed price to perform TO 001, and in addition is required to submit labor pricing information covering all five years of potential contract performance. While the

Government is not obliged to award TO 001 either at the time of contract award or subsequently, the Government reserves the right to do so at the price proposed by the winning offeror. Accordingly, offerors are asked to include prices for the various cost elements of TO

001 in Section B of this solicitation. Note that pricing information entered in Section B applies only to pricing for TO 001.

Information on labor rates proposed for each year of potential contract performance shall be included in the Pricing volume of your proposal. See Section L of this solicitation, provision L.4. All costs in proposals submitted for this solicitation W56HZV-16-R-0099 shall be valid for 180 calendar days after the solicitation closing date of 10 January 2017.*

E. FORMAL COMMUNICATION: All questions regarding this solicitation shall be submitted IN WRITING ONLY to the Contract Specialist, via e-_______________________ mail at rory.g.thelen.civ@mail.mil.
