1. Each offeror shall complete and include the Total Evaluated Price Worksheet in their response

(i.e., proposal) to the solicitation. This information shall be provided in an Excel Spreadsheet format and include all formulas. The offeror shall indicate the hourly price for each labor category listed on the Pricing Worksheets for each year of the Five Year Ordering Period. The labor category hourly rates provided are to be fully burdened.

2. Should a contract be issued to the offeror, the proposed labor rates provided on these Total

Evaluated Price Worksheets shall be incorporated into the resulting contracting and shall serve as the maximum rate allowable for that labor category when pricing task orders.

The labor categories included in the Total Evaluated Price Worksheet represent what will typically be required to perform the services under the individual task orders. However, the list is not all inclusive and there may be circumstances when individual task order requirements involve labor categories not contained in the Total Evaluated Price Worksheet. In these instances, the contract will be modified to incorporate the additional labor category(ies) into the

Total Evaluated Price Worksheet. The rates incorporated will be based upon the rates used by the contractor in pricing the competitively awarded task order.

3. The rates proposed for each performance period cannot be adjusted except for instances where the labor categories are subject to the Service Contract Act and a revision is permitted under the provision of FAR Clause 52.222-43. Therefore, offerors are cautioned to adjust for inflation where warranted.

SUBCONTRACTOR/TEAMING PARTNER CONSENT FORM FOR THE RELEASE

OF PAST PERFORMANCE INFORMATION TO THE PRIME CONTRACTOR

Past performance information concerning subcontractors and teaming partners cannot be disclosed to a private party without the subcontractor's or teaming partner's consent. Because a prime contractor is a private party, the Government will need that consent before disclosing subcontractor/teaming partner past and present performance information to the prime during exchanges. In an effort to assist the Government's Past Performance Evaluators in assessing your past performance relevancy and confidence, we request that the following consent form be completed by the major subcontractors/teaming partners identified in your proposal. The completed consent forms should be submitted as part of your Past Performance Volume III

Proposal.

The proposal shall cover the entire five year ordering period and all six (6) Task Areas identified in the MAIDIQ PWS. For the purpose of evaluation, any reference to Task Areas in the solicitation include the subtaskings. This volume shall be organized as follows:

L.3.1. TAB A: SUBFACTOR 1 - Management and Staffing Approach.

The offeror shall provide a comprehensive Management and Staffing Approach to monitor and manage a workforce capable of successfully performing all requirements set forth in the MAIDIQ PWS. The offeror shall also provide a comprehensive Staffing, Recruitment, and Retention Plan that demonstrates the offeror’s ability to provide qualified personnel who are capable of successfully performing all six (6) Task Areas in the MAIDIQ PWS. The

Management and Staffing Approach shall include:

An organizational summary chart and narrative that details the organizational structure to be used to manage performance at the MAIDIQ and task order level.

PWS. This process shall include a timeline for fully staffing a task order within 30 days of task order award and to replace personnel within 5 business days of departure and address methods and processes to reduce personnel turn-over and retain qualified personnel.

Resumes for the Key Personnel (program manager and alternate) that clearly depict the minimum qualifications for these key positions as identified in the PWS; any additional positions that the Offeror has identified as key at the MAIDIQ or task order level, the rationale for that designation, and the qualifications that will be required of these key positions (i.e., degree, certifications, licenses, relevant experience).

The Quality Control Plan (QCP), as a minimum, shall address continuous process improvement;

procedures for scheduling, conducting and documenting inspections; discrepancy identification and correction; corrective action procedures to include procedures for addressing Government discovered non-conformances; procedures to identify and correct the root cause of issues and to prevent re-occurrence of discrepancies; procedures for trend analysis; procedures for collecting and addressing customer feedback/complaints, and a process to monitor personnel compliance with security, training, and qualification requirements. The QCP shall identify any relevant Industry Standards and/or certifications

The offerors shall provide a chart summarizing the source of the expertise (prime and/or teaming partner) for each Task Area. If there are risks in the Offeror’s proposed technical approach, the Offeror shall identify the risks and provide their plan to mitigate the identified risks.

L.4. VOLUME 2: FACTOR 2 – Past Performance.

L.4.1. The Offeror shall provide documentation outlining the offeror’s past performance with contracts, as a prime or subcontractor, which is the same or similar in nature, size, and complexity to the services being procured under this solicitation. The submittal shall include rationale supporting your assertion of relevance and how it was determined that the work performed previously was the same or similar in nature, size, and complexity to the work specified by this solicitation.

L.4.2. The Past Performance evaluation will be accomplished by reviewing aspects of an Offeror's recent and relevant Past Performance, focusing on and targeting performance which is relevant to the effort as it relates to the services being procured under this solicitation.

L.4.3. Past Performance information described herein is required on the offeror and all subcontractors, teaming partners, and/or joint venture partners (collectively, partners) proposed to perform 25% or more of the proposed effort based on the total proposed price. The offeror shall submit, along with the information required in this paragraph, a consent letter, executed by each partner, authorizing release of adverse past performance information to the offeror so the offeror can respond to such information. For each identified effort for a commercial customer, the offeror shall also submit a client authorization letter, authorizing release to the Government of requested information on the offeror's performance.

L.4.4. The offeror shall include documentation regarding their relevant past performance as it directly relates to the work being procured under this solicitation. The offeror SHALL NOT go back any farther than the last three (3) years from issuance of the solicitation for the submitted data. The past performance data shall document a successful history of past contract performance.

L.4.5. In conducting the Past Performance evaluation, the Government reserves the right to use the information provided in the offeror’s Past Performance Volume, Past Performance Questionnaire, and information obtained from other sources, such as the Past Performance Information Retrieval System (PPIRS), Federal Awardee Performance and Integrity Information System (FAPIIS), Electronic Subcontract Reporting System (eSRS), Contractor

Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARs), or other databases; and may be obtained from other sources available to the Government, such as the Defense Contract Management Agency (DCMA) and interviews with

Program Managers, Contracting Officers, and Fee Determining Officials. The past performance evaluation team will review this past performance information and determine the quality and usefulness as it applies to the performance confidence assessment. See FAR 15.101-2(b)(1) for treatment of past performance relative to small business. Offerors are reminded that both independent data and data provided by offerors in their proposals may be used by the Government to evaluate offeror past performance. However, the burden of providing thorough, complete, and current past performance information as requested in this paragraph remains with the offerors.

Proposals that do not contain the information requested by this paragraph risk rejection or a less than acceptable performance rating by the Government. All past performance comments received will be taken into account and could affect the overall rating. The overall past performance evaluation is a subjective decision based on the whole of all data received.

L.4.6. Submission Requirements. The offeror shall submit a Past Performance Volume containing the following:

•Table of Contents

• Summary Page describing the role of the offeror and each subcontractor, teaming partner, and /or joint venture partner that the offeror is required to provide Past Performance Specific Relevant Contract Reference Sheets for the past performance experience IAW Attachment 4.

• Consent Letters executed by each partner, authorizing the release of past performance information so the offeror can respond to such information (A sample consent letter is attached as Attachment 4).

• Client Authorization Letters for each identified effort for a commercial customer authorizing release to the

Government of requested information on the offeror’s performance.

• Organization Structure Change History: Many companies have acquired, been acquired by, or otherwise merged with other companies, and/or reorganized their divisions, business groups, subsidiary companies, etc. In many cases, these changes have taken place during the time of performance of relevant present or past efforts or between conclusion of recent past efforts and this source selection. As a result, it is sometimes difficult to determine what past performance is relevant to this acquisition. To facilitate this relevancy determination, include in this proposal volume a "roadmap" describing all such changes in the organization of your company. As part of this explanation, show how these changes impact the relevance of any efforts you identify for past performance evaluation/performance confidence assessment. Since the Government intends to consider present and past performance information provided by other sources as well as that provided by the offeror(s), your "roadmap" should be both specifically applicable to the efforts you identify and general enough to apply to efforts on which the

Government receives information from other sources.

• Specific Relevant Contracts Format - Sheets are limited to 3 pages per reference. The offeror shall provide documentation outlining the offeror’s past performance with contracts, as a prime or major subcontractor, which is the same or similar in nature, size, and complexity to the services being procured under this Solicitation. The submittal shall include rationale supporting your assertion of relevance and how it was determined that the work performed previously was the same or similar in nature, size, and complexity to the work specified by this solicitation. Offerors are required to explain what aspects of the contracts are deemed relevant to the proposed effort, and to what aspects of the proposed effort they relate. Offeror’s past performance shall demonstrate that it has successfully staffed and performed multiple contracts and/or task orders, simultaneously.

Past Performance Questionnaire - See Attachment 4, Past Performance Questionnaire. For the contracts identified on each Specific Relevant Contract Reference, the offeror shall forward a copy of the Past Performance

Questionnaire to the points of contact responsible for monitoring performance under such contracts. The points of contact shall return the questionnaires directly to the KO, Ms. Gina Dedmon (gina.d.dedmon.civ@mail.mil) and Ms.

Bethany Rosser (bethany.r.rosser.civ@mail.mil) not later than 12 October 2017. Any questionnaires not returned directly to the KO will not be reviewed and evaluated. The information contained in the questionnaires will be used to evaluate the offeror’s past performance. New entities that have no past customers shall annotate on the Summary

Page that they have had no previous clients and that the minimum number of questionnaires cannot be provided.

L.5. VOLUME 3: FACTOR 3 – Price.

L.5.1. This volume shall contain all required pricing information described below. The Offeror shall not include pricing information in Volumes 1, 2, or 4 of its proposal. The Pricing proposal (with the exception of the Pricing

Offerors shall perform a virus check prior to proposal submittal. All pricing shall be complete and error free.

L.5.2. It is expected that all contracts awarded will be based upon adequate price competition; therefore, the Offeror is not required to provide certified cost/pricing data with its proposal. If, after receipt of the proposals, the KO determines that adequate price competition does not exist IAW FAR 15.403-1, the Offeror shall provide certified cost/pricing data as requested by the Contracting Officer. Similarly, if the contracting officer determines a fair and reasonable price cannot be established with price analysis alone, the offeror may be asked, and shall then provide, other than certified cost or pricing data IAW FAR 15.403-1(b) and/or FAR 15.404-1(a)..

L.5.3 Contractor Pricing for MAIDIQ. The Offeror’s proposal shall be for a five year ordering period. The Offeror is required to complete Attachment 1 – Total Evaluated Price Worksheets.
