Offerors are required to submit proposals electronically, via DoD Secure Access File Exchange (SAFE) in accordance with the following

Proposal Submission Instructions and Process. Use of DoD SAFE requires the offerors understanding and consent of DoD SAFEs user behavior guidelines and all terms of use. This RFP requires use of a one-time submission code provided by the Government for tracking purposes outlined in Proposal Submission Instructions and Process below. Offerors with CAC cards may not submit a proposal via DoD SAFE without a Government provided submission code.

NOTE: In accordance with FAR 15.208, it is the responsibility of the Offeror to ensure the proposal/quote is received by the date and time specified on the cover page of this solicitation in accordance with the Instructions below. Please note that when submitting through DoD SAFE, there is no "expected" or "target" length of time for proposal submission; size and content may be factors, therefore offerors are strongly cautioned when submitting proposals to allow adequate time for submission.

Proposal Submission Instructions and Process:

Step 1 (Offeror): Offerors shall email Keri L. Skrobot (email: keri.l.skrobot.civ@mail.mil) of their intent to submit a proposal and request a DoD SAFE Drop Off code. Unless otherwise specified in the request, the Government will use the email account from the request to process a Drop Off Request.

NOTE 1: It is recommended that this request is submitted no sooner than 14 days (Drop Off Requests are only valid for 14 days), and no later than 72 hours, prior to proposal due date and time.

NOTE 2: The current file limit for Drop Off is 25 files. If the offeror intends to submit more than 25 files, it is the offerors responsibility to request a 2nd Drop Off code with its request.

Step 2 (Government): The Government will send a one-time submission code through the request a drop off feature of DoD SAFE. For tracking purposes, the Government will only provide this to a single email account on behalf of the offeror.

Step 3 (Offeror): The Offeror will receive an email from the DoD SAFE with a link and a one-time submission code must be used to submit a proposal for this solicitation. The offeror opens the link and Adds Files.

Step 4 (Offeror): The offeror submits files by clicking Drop-off File. Proposal submission does not occur until the Drop-off File occurs.

NOTE 3: It is highly recommended that the offeror take a screen shot of the Drop Off Completed screen and email it to Keri L. Skrobot

(email: keri.l.skrobot"mailto:XXXXXXX.xx.xx.civ@mail.mil" ) ____________________________________

Step 5(Offeror): If the offeror needs to update its submission prior to the RFP closing date, it shall follow the same steps outlined above.

L.3 Evaluation Factors:

Offeror proposals shall address the following factors:

1. Past Performance Factor Volume I

2. Price Factor Volume II

3. Small Business Participation Factor Volume III

4. Proposal Terms and Conditions Volume IV

L.3.1 Volume I: Past Performance Factor:

For the Past Performance Factor, provide information for a total of up to two recent contracts performed by the offeror as the prime contractor, which the offeror considers to have relevance. These may include foreign, federal, state, local and private industry contracts. The burden of providing thorough and complete past performance information remains with the offeror. It is the offeror's responsibility to submit detailed and complete information so the Government may evaluate its Past Performance volume. The Government does not assume the duty to search for data to cure problems it finds in proposals. While the Government may elect to consider data obtained from internal and external sources other than the proposal, the burden to provide thorough and complete past performance information rests with the offeror. The below instructions are provided to advise offerors as to the information required by the

Government to assess the contractors Recent and Relevant past performance. Since this information constitutes a basis of the

Government's review, it is imperative that the offeror present its past performance in a clear and complete manner. Failure to provide the information requested under paragraph L.3.1.3 and L.3.1.4 (if applicable) below may result in an assessment that the offeror does not possess a record of Recent and Relevant past performance.

For the purpose of this Factor, a Contract is defined as a written instrument that requires the offeror to perform a distinct effort and demonstrates the distinct effort was actually performed. Written instruments containing supplies or services that can be ordered but typically do not demonstrate actual performance, such as Indefinite Delivery Contracts (FAR 16.5), Basic Ordering Agreements (BOA), Blanket Purchase Agreements (BPA), and Federal Supply Schedules (FSS) do not meet the definition of a Contract. Written instruments considered to demonstrate actual performance may include a single task or delivery order, a single work directive, or a single definite quantity contract provided it demonstrates a distinct effort was actually performed. An offeror may submit, or the Government may require, written instruments that enhance the Governments understanding of the distinct effort actually performed if it is not identified on the Contract itself. It is incumbent upon the offeror to demonstrate that a distinct effort was actually performed.

L.3.1.1 Recent Contracts are those performed within 5 years of the date of issuance of this RFP.

L.3.1.2 Relevant Contracts are those comparable in scope and magnitude of effort and complexity to the following statement of work requirements:

(a) Produced and delivered Shielded S-280 C/G Shelters IAW a Government TDP and ASTM E1975-18 or produced and delivered similar shelters that use aluminum skin, foam core, and beam panels that are bonded using a bonding process per ASTM E1801-15 or similar with the panel sizes measuring up to 140" x 85".

(b) Capability to meet the maximum production target of ten (10) S-280 C/G Shelters or similar shelters per month.

(c) Successfully passed First Article Testing on the Shielded S-280 C/G Shelter per ASTM E1975-18 or successfully passed First

Article Testing on similar shelters.

L.3.1.3 Contract Information: Refer to the definition of a Contract above (L.3.1). The offerors proposal shall substantiate what distinct effort was required and actually performed under each of the proposed Contract(s). For each Contract(s) submitted, provide the following information:

(a) Prime Contractor name and address;

(b) Contract Number (and delivery/task order number if applicable);

(c) Contract Type;

(d) Total Value of the Contract (beginning & ending value);

(e) Delivery or Performance Schedule;

(f) Government or private industry contracting activity address, telephone number and e-mail;

(2) the statement of work requirements identified in L.3.1.2. In its narrative, the offeror shall specify the location in the cited Contracts statement of work (to include paragraph and page number) that substantiates the relevant work performed;

(k) Contract period of performance;

(l) Provide a brief self-assessment of Contract performance. The self-assessment must address performance to meet Technical and Schedule requirements; and

(m) Copy of the complete Performance Work Statement or Scope of Work for each of the submitted Contracts. If the proposed

Contract was issued under or in connection with a related written instrument (e.g. Indefinite Delivery Contracts, BOA, BPA, FSS) and the details of the distinct effort actually performed needed to establish relevancy on the proposed Contract are further defined within the terms and conditions (e.g. statement of work) of that related written instrument, provide that information and any other information necessary to establish this instruments relationship to the proposed Contract. (These documents can be submitted as stand-alone attachments within the proposal volume).

L.3.1.4 Associated Entity, Predecessor Company, and Joint Venture. As stated above (L.3.1), only Contracts performed by the named offeror will be considered, however the Government may consider the past performance of an associated entity, a predecessor company, or joint venture as explained below.

L.3.1.4.2 Predecessor Company. The Government may consider the past performance of a predecessor company if the offeror demonstrates the past performance of the predecessor company is reasonably predictive of the offerors performance under the proposed effort.

(a) A predecessor company may include a company which was acquired by the offeror or merged with the offeror. It may also include other instances where the predecessor company was reorganized, restructured, or otherwise altered. A predecessor company does not include an entity which remains separate and distinct from the offeror. The offeror shall provide to the Government a narrative that explains the offerors relationship to the predecessor company. The offeror shall support the narrative with documentation evidencing the offerors status as the successor company.

(b) The offeror shall provide to the Government a narrative that explains why the predecessors past performance is predictive of the offerors performance under the proposed effort. Evidence may include, but is not limited to, continuity of operations such as the continued employment of the predecessors employees and the transfer of assets including buildings, furnishings, and fixtures.

L.3.1.4.3 Individual Partners of a Joint Venture. If the offeror is a Joint Venture, the Government may consider past performance of each partner of the Joint Venture and any work performed by the Joint Venture itself previously.

Potential offerors should review their current and planned participation in any other Government contracts, subcontracts, consulting, or teaming arrangements where they may be in a position of actual or perceived bias or unfair competitive advantage.

L.6.6.2 Offerors shall disclose any potential OCI situations to the Contracting Officer as soon as identified including prior to proposal submission. The disclosure should include the facts and an analysis of the actual or perceived conflict and a recommended approach(es) to neutralize or mitigate the potential conflict. The preferred approach to potential conflicts is to negate/obviate the conflict. Mitigation is considered only if it is not practical to negate/obviate the conflict. The Contracting Officer will promptly respond to resolve any potential conflicts. If a potential OCI is not known, the offeror shall provide an affirmative statement that an

OCI does not exist.
