ADDENDUM II TO FAR 52.212-1 INSTRUCTIONS TO OFFERORS – COMMERCIAL PRODUCTS AND

COMMERCIAL SERVICES

Army Contract Writing System (ACWS) Transition Information for Offerors

a. The Army Contracting Enterprise (ACE) is in the process of deploying new solicitation and contract writing software to Army contracting offices worldwide. Known as the Army Contract Writing System (ACWS), this modern software suite will soon replace most existing Army contract writing systems, including the system used to create and release this Solicitation.

b. During this transition period, Offerors are hereby advised:

1. The Contracting Office may use any combination of contract writing systems to create and release documents related to this solicitation (e.g. solicitation amendments and awards, if any). Due to this:

i. This solicitation may contain different offer submission instructions than other solicitation released by the same Contracting Office (e.g. requiring offer submission via the PIEE Solicitation Module vs. e-mail). Offerors should review all offer submission instructions contained in the solicitation documents and direct any questions or concerns to the Contract Specialist or Contracting Officer.

ii. If the Contracting Office switches contract writing systems prior to award, documents you receive from the Contracting Officer or view on SAM.gov or other forums may appear noticeably different than the initial solicitation or previous solicitations or awards from the same Contracting Office. This is normal and expected.

iii. A change between contract writing systems may cause important information concerning solicitation response (amendments) or accepted terms (awards) to take on different formatting or appear in different parts of later documents issued. Offerors shall review all documents carefully to locate this important information and direct any questions or concerns to the Contract Specialist or Contracting Officer.

2. The Government does not intend to use the transition between contract writing systems to effect any changes to solicitation or award terms and conditions without accompanying document narratives explicitly stating such changes are deliberate and desired. While the Contract Specialist and Contracting Officer will take care to minimize or eliminate any inadvertent changes when adapting to the new contract writing software, you, as the Offeror, may still be the first to spot such errors. Therefore, Offerors shall:

i. Notify the Contracting Officer immediately if any observed changes, removals, or additions affect your award eligibility, violate or alter existing quote/proposal terms, or could affect Contract performance post-award.

ii.Take special care to ensure all fill-in Clauses are populated and remain populated across documents received from the Contracting Office throughout the Solicitation and Award process.

iii. Contact the Contracting Officer listed on the first page of the solicitation or solicitation amendment for guidance if you notice or suspect any inadvertent change has occurred between document issuances.

3. The Contracting Officer will correct problems affecting award documents (if any) via bilateral modification, at no cost to the Contractor. Any such modification will reconcile the award with the latest version of this solicitation reflecting deliberate action by the Contracting Officer (e.g. the first issuance if no amendments, or the latest amendment with accompanying narratives), inclusive of any documented preaward negotiations or accepted supplemental offer terms.

4. In the unlikely event a network disruption, contract writing system error, or financial system error threatens timely award of the requirement set forth in this solicitation, the Contracting Officer:

i. May elect to use alternative mechanisms to obligate funds and allow work or deliveries to legally begin to the benefit of, and with legal protection for, both parties.

ii. Will incorporate the latest version of this Solicitation into such mechanisms to serve as a framework for contract execution until any such system problems are resolved.

iii. Will ensure any action taken does not conflict with the stated offer evaluation and award methodology of this requirement.

iv. Will issue a complete, properly-formatted award accurately reflecting this requirement and all applicable terms and conditions once systems return to normal.

(End of addendum II)

52.212-2 EVALUATION--COMMERCIAL PRODUCTS AND COMMERCIAL SERVICES (NOV 2021)

(a) The Government will award a contract resulting from this solicitation to the responsible offeror whose offer conforming to the solicitation will be most advantageous to the Government, price and other factors considered. The following factors shall be used to evaluate offers:

Entry Gate Criteria

The Offeror must be rated acceptable for the following criteria in order to proceed to full quotation evaluation:

Entry Gate Criteria:

1. The contractor shall be a member of the American Short Line and Regional Railroad Association and must provide proof of this membership.

Evaluation Factors

The combination of non-price factors, TECHNICAL AND PAST PERFORMANCE are significantly more important than Price. Award may be made to other than the lowest priced quote if the Government determines that a price premium is warranted due to technical merit.

However, the closer the merits of the technical quote are to one another, the greater will be the importance of price in making the award determination. In the event that two or more technical quotes are determined technically equivalent, award may be made to the lower priced quote provided the price is reasonable. Responses to this solicitation will be evaluated against the following factors:

Factor 1: Technical Factor 2: Past Performance Factor 3: Price

FACTOR 1: Technical.

The offeror shall develop a technical plan based off of the requirements of the Performance Work Statement (PWS).

The plan shall provide, at a minimum, the following information:

a. Demonstrates a structured approach for rail switching services and rail car movements to include response times for both movement requests and callout services/emergency moves.

b. Demonstrate a structured approach for sourcing alternative locomotives and personnel to ensure continued performance.

c. Provide proposed equipment and resources necessary to meet the scope and scale of services set forth in PWS.

d. Provide limitations to compliance in response to section 5.3 of the Performance Work Statement “Special Conditions”.

e. Provide the experience and certifications sufficient to demonstrate a qualified pool of contractor employees.

Mere re-statements of the requirements or statements from the Offeror that the offer is compliant that do not include proof that the contractor can demonstrate the items above is unacceptable.

If the Offeror’s quote is determined unacceptable in any of the technical evaluation factors or subfactors, the quote may not be considered for award.

The Government reserves the right to award the contract to other than the lowest priced offeror.

During evaluation of each proposal, the Government will assign a rating as shown below. The Government will assign an overall rating to the Technical factor. A rating of unacceptable in one or more sub-factors will constitute an overall rating of unacceptable for the technical evaluation.

The following ratings will be utilized:
