(b) Attention is directed to the Contract Award provision of the solicitation that provides that a written award or acceptance of offer mailed, or otherwise furnished to the successful offeror, results in a binding contract. The Government will mail or otherwise furnish to the offeror an award or notice of award not later than the day award is dated. Therefore, the offeror should compute the time available for performance beginning with the actual date of award, rather than the date the written notice of award is received from the Contracting Officer through the ordinary mails. However, the Government will evaluate an offer that proposes delivery based on the Contractor’s date of receipt of the contract or notice of award by adding

(1) five calendar days for delivery of the award through the ordinary mails, or

(2) one working day if the solicitation states that the contract or notice of award will be transmitted electronically. (The term “working day” excludes weekends and U.S. Federal holidays.) If, as so computed, the offered delivery date is later than the required delivery date, the offer will be considered nonresponsive and rejected.

SECTION L - INSTRUCTIONS, CONDITIONS AND NOTICES TO BIDDERS

SECTION L

SOLICITATION SECTION L: INSTRUCTIONS TO OFFERORS

L.1 SECTION L: GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS

The Stryker MTS requirement is a Total Small Business Set-aside to be competed among companies qualifying as a small business under NAICS 333318, (Other Commercial and Service Industry Machinery Manufacturing) with a size standard of 1,000 employees.

This section provides general guidance for preparing proposals as well as specific instructions on the format and content of the proposal. The Offeror’s proposal must include all data and information requested and must be submitted in accordance with these instructions. The Offeror shall not submit additional proposal information that is not specifically requested by this Solicitation. Such additional proposal information will not be considered during the evaluation process. The Offeror’s proposal shall be compliant with these submission instructions (Section L).

Non-conformance with the instructions provided may result in an Offeror being found non-responsive and may result in an unfavorable proposal evaluation.

The Offeror shall provide a transmittal letter and an Executive Summary of the overall proposal, to include all proposed teaming arrangements and shall be included in Volume V, Contracting Information only. The transmittal letter shall state that the Offeror is able to meet all program requirements and to confirm receipt and acknowledge acceptance of all amendments. The transmittal letter shall also include title of RFP; RFP number; Government issuing office identification; full official name and address of firm; name and phone number of the individual designated as the responsible contact for the firm; reference to the enclosures or volume numbers; and, the date of the enclosures or volumes if different from the date of an Offeror’s proposal. An authorized official of the Offeror shall sign the transmittal letter.

Offerors shall assume that the Government has no prior knowledge of their facilities and experience. The Government will base its evaluation only on the information presented in the Offeror’s proposal. The Government will not assume the Offerors will do anything that is not expressly stated in their proposal.

In presenting material in their proposal, Offerors are advised that quality of information is more important than quantity. The proposal shall be clear, concise, and shall include sufficient detail for effective evaluation and for substantiating the validity of stated assertions. Elaborate brochures or presentations, binding, detailed art work and other documents beyond what is sufficient to present a complete and effective proposal, are unnecessary and are not desired. The proposal shall be specific, detailed and complete as to clearly and convincingly demonstrate that the Offeror has a thorough understanding of the requirements and associated risks, and is able, willing, and competent to devote the resources necessary to meet the requirements and has valid and practical solutions for all requirements.

The proposal should not simply rephrase or restate the Government's requirements, but rather, shall provide convincing rationale to address how the Offeror intends to meet the Stryker MTS Phase V requirements.

Paraphrasing the Statement of Work (SOW) (PEO-STRI-17-W016), the Performance Specification (PRF-PT-684), or parts thereof is inadequate, as are phrases such as “standard procedures will be employed” or “well-known techniques will be used.” Mere reiteration of the requirement or standard reference material is discouraged and may be considered inadequate and non-compliant. It is the Offeror’s responsibility to present enough information to be meaningfully evaluated without discussions.

The Offeror must include any data necessary to illustrate the adequacy of the various assumptions, approaches, and solutions to problems. Offerors are encouraged to use quantitative terms wherever possible and avoid the use of qualitative and subjective terms to the maximum extent practicable. Offerors are cautioned that while the Government will not evaluate every SOW requirement for the purposes of the source selection evaluation, the awardee/Contractor will be required to comply with all SOW requirements during performance of the contract. The Government may determine that an Offeror’s proposal is non-compliant, and therefore ineligible for award, if the proposal indicates that: it cannot or will not meet any of the SOW requirements; provides an approach that clearly does not meet any of the SOW requirements; or, includes data which prompts the Government to question the Offeror’s compliance with any of the SOW requirements. The Source Selection Authority may reject all proposals received in response to a solicitation, if doing so is in the best interest of the Government.

OFFERORS ARE HEREBY ON NOTICE THAT A FAILURE TO SUBMIT ALL THE REQUIRED

DOCUMENTATION IN EXACTLY THE MANNER (TIMELINESS AND FORMAT) SPECIFIED IN THE

SOLICITATION MAY CONSTITUTE A BASIS FOR THE GOVERNMENT TO REJECT A PROPOSAL AS

NON-COMPLIANT AND THEREFORE BE DEEMED UNACCEPTABLE, AT THE SOLE DISCRETION OF

THE PCO.

e) The Government intends to evaluate proposals and award a contract without conducting discussions with Offerors. However, in the event the PCO concludes that conducting discussions is in the best interests of the Government, the PCO will establish a competitive range before entering into discussions.

The Offerors are cautioned that each Volume of the proposal is evaluated stand-alone against the criteria set forth in the Proposal Submission Instructions and Evaluation Criteria and if the data is not contained in the appropriate volume of the proposal, it will not be evaluated.

h) Offerors shall assume that any data they have previously submitted in response to another solicitation, whether submitted to the ACC-ORL or another agency, will not be available during this proposal evaluation and source selection process.

l) Offerors are also required to fill in the remaining portions of each Data Rights Attachment table (Attachment 4) in accordance with the instructions provided by the Government. Each of the three tables must be filled forming a complete Data Rights Attachment that must be included in the management proposal. Table 1 is for Technical Data associated with noncommercial products and noncommercial Computer Software, Table 2 is for Technical Data associated with commercial products and commercial Computer Software, and Table 3 is for Contract Administration (cost, financial, schedule) information and data that does not fall within the DFARS definitions of Technical Data or Computer Software. The Data Rights Attachment Table requires Offerors to list information about any Technical Data associated with commercial products or commercial Computer Software.

Offeror must list in this table any CDRL for a commercial item.

Assertions should be made for technical or computer software to be furnished with restrictions. Offerors must complete the assertion list requirements of DFARS provision 252.227-7017.

Whereas Offerors shall not make any changes to the Solicitation, all objections, or any exceptions to the terms and conditions shall be submitted using the Question and Comment Matrix.
