SUMMARY OF CHANGES

SECTION SF 30 - BLOCK 14 CONTINUATION PAGE

The following have been added by full text:

SUMMARY OF CHANGES

1. The purpose of this amendment is as follows:

A. Summary of Change: The Government has amended M.5.1.5.4.6 (Sources of Past Performance Information) to clarify that the Government may or may not consult all of the listed sources.

M.5.1.5.4.6 Sources of Past Performance Information for evaluation are as follows may include:

1) Relevant and recent past performance information provided by the Offeror;

2) Past performance information obtained from other sources available to the Government, to include, but not limited to: the Past Performance information Retrieval System (PPIRS), Federal Awardee Performance and Integrity Information System (FAPIIS), Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS), Electronic Subcontract Reporting Systems (eSRS), or other databases;

3) Interviews with Program Managers, Contracting Officers, Fee Determining Officials, and other Government officials;

4) The Defense Contract Management Agency (DCMA); and,

5) Responses to Past Performance Questionnaires.

B. Summary of Change: The definition of “relevant” in L.4.6.2.1.1 is brought into line with the “aspects of relevancy” in M.5.1.5.3.

L.4.6.2.1.1 The Offeror shall submit with its proposal contract descriptions representing its recent and relevant performance under Government and/or commercial contracts. The past performance information may be from predecessor companies, key personnel who have relevant experience, or subcontractors that will perform major or critical aspects of the effort. “Relevant” means performance that compares favorably to the “aspects of relevancy” in M.5.1.5.3. The relevant past performance references will typically be examples of development, design, and manufacture of chemical, biological, or explosives detection systems. “Recent” means any contract under which any development, design or manufacturing has taken place within the last three (3) years of the issuance of this solicitation.

C. Summary of Change: The Government has amended Section L.1.3 to reflect the new due date for final proposal revisions and to require offerors to identify changes in their final proposal revisions. Additionally, revised material in final proposals provided in response to discussions shall not count against the page limits in Table L-1.

See Note below Table L-1.

L.1.3 Final All proposal submissions are due on 17 May 2018, 3:00 PM EST. It is the Offeror’s responsibility to assure its proposal is received by the date and time specified above. In accordance with FAR 15.208, if your proposal is not received at the initial point of entry to the Government (received through web based system) by the exact date and time specified above, it will be determined late, will not be evaluated, and will not be considered for Award. Proposal, as the term is used here, means ALL volumes and parts of the proposal. Offerors shall clearly identify all aspects of their final proposal that have been revised since the submission of initial proposals. Offerors may accomplish this through the use of highlighting, strike-through/underlining, and/or a change matrix (which does not count against page limits). Offerors bear the risk that any new proposal information not readily identified may be overlooked.

D. Summary of Change: All Offeror(s) submitted initial proposals with proposed warranty prices the Government believes are too high. Warranty costs are much higher than expected based on comparison of past prices with similar detection systems. Historic rate of warranty returns for similar detectors to the AVCAD (CAM, ICAM, ACADA, M4 JCAD and M4A1 JCAD) has been less than 1% returned from the field within the warranty period, exclusive of systemic defect issues. In an effort to lower the warranty costs, the Government has:

1. Amended the warranty clause in the solicitation (and resultant contract) to make the place of correction for defects at the contractor’s facility (amended from the place of acceptance). See 52.246-19(c)(2).

2. Amended the warranty clause to eliminate Alt III, which eliminates any contractor liability for “reasonable costs of disassembly and/or reassembly of larger items when it is necessary to remove the supplies to be inspected and/or returned for correction or replacement.”

3. Amended C.10.9 to significantly limit the application of Systemic Defect Coverage. Specifically, the Government:

a. Deleted “Systemic Defect coverage may also be invoked when the system Mean Time Between Failure/Mean Time Between False Alarm (MTBF/MTBFA) average falls below the specified values.”

b Amended C.10.9.3.3 “Systemic Defect coverage may also be required when the actual Defect rate for particular Item (part) exceeds the predicted failure rate for the Item” to “Systemic Defect coverage may also be required when the actual Defect rate for particular Item (part) exceeds the predicted failure rate for the system by 50% or more.”

c. Clarified in C.10.9 AVCAD WARRANTY that “AVCAD warranty shall apply to options 4 through 10 (CLIN 0017 for LRIP, CLIN 0018AB for 1st FRP, CLIN 0020AB for 2nd FRP, CLIN 0022AB for 3rd FRP, CLIN 0024AB for 4th FRP, CLIN 0026AB for 5th FRP, and CLIN 0028AB 6th FRP).”

E. Summary of Change: The Government has amended information pertaining to the Technical Data Package (TDP) for Section B CLIN 0030, PWS Section C.17, and Section L.4.2.9.5.

The Government must ensure it has the necessary data deliverables and data rights to facilitate the competitive sustainment of the systems. To this end, the Government has included a separately priced CLIN for a Technical Data Package (technical data and associated data rights) for Spare and Consumable parts. After reviewing initial proposal(s), it is clear:

1. Based on offerors’ differing technical approaches, what is a spare/consumable part may differ between offerors

2. Offerors’ data rights submissions did not clarify the level of data rights being provided with the Spare and Consumable TDP.

3. The Government has determined it may be in the Government’s best interest to purchase the Spare and Consumable TDP item-by-item as opposed to the all-or-nothing approach in the initial solicitation.

Accordingly:

1. The Section B CLIN for the Spare and Consumable TDP, the PWS, and Section L is amended as follows:

Section B:

0030 Spare and Consumable TDP

FFP

The contractor, as an independent contractor and not as an agent of the

Government, shall furnish the necessary resources to perform the work, as detailed in the PWS Section C. [This includes providing the data and data rights necessary for the Government to be able to competitively procure/re-procure all spare and consumable parts, as determined by the Government. As explained in PWS paragraph C.17, this CLIN may be further divided and exercised as subCLINs for individual spare or consumable parts].

PWS:

C.17 OPTION 11: AVCAD SPARE AND CONSUMABLE PARTS TECHNICAL DATA

PACKAGE (TDP) (CLIN 0030)

The Government may choose to purchase the Technical Data Package (TDP) for spare and consumable parts for the AVCAD system. The Contractor shall prepare and deliver product level technical data for spare and consumable parts for AVCAD to the Government suitable for competitive procurement within three months of exercising the option. The TDP will include both the level of detail and the associated data rights permitting the Government competitively procure/re-procure all spare and consumable parts, as determined by the Government. The Government will notify the Contractor in discussions and prior to contract award of the spare and consumable parts the Government has identified in the Contractor’s proposal. If the Government proposes to introduce any additional spare and consumable parts into the system design after contract award, the contractor request Government permission to do so, and shall provide the TDP cost for those new spare/consumable parts to the Government prior to requesting Government approval. The TDP shall be delivered with at least Government Purpose Rights (GPR), unless the Contractor has specifically identified specific spare and consumables for which the Contractor is delivering with less than GPR in its Spare and Consumable Parts TDP proposal attachment. During design reviews, Government may reject designs that the Government determines will unnecessarily require the Government to obtain share and consumable parts from the Contractor on a non-competitive basis. The Government may choose, in its sole discretion, to further divide CLIN 0030 into additional SubCLINs for specific spare or consumable parts and exercise the TDP Option only for specific parts, in accordance with the per-part TDP pricing proposed by the Contractor.

L.4.2.9.5:

The Offeror shall attach to its offer a stand-alone list (not cross-referred to other portions of the proposal), entitled “Spare and Consumable Parts TDP” that provides the following information. This attachment shall not count against the page count:

(1) ITEMS: Identification of all spare and consumable parts in the Offeror’s proposed system. This list, at a minimum, shall include the spare and consumable parts identified by the Government during discussions.

(2) DATA RIGHTS: The Data Rights License that the Offeror will provide for the Technical Data Package for each spare and consumable part, if the Government exercises Option 11 (CLIN 0030). The TDP for each spare and consumable part shall be delivered with at least Government Purpose Rights (GPR), unless the Contractor has specifically identifies the part in this attachment as being delivered with less than GPR.

(3) PRICE OF TDP FOR INDIVIDUAL PARTS IF TDP CLIN IS SUBDIVIDED: The Offeror’s proposed price for each identified spare and consumable part TDP. The Government may use this information to subdivide CLIN 0030 into subCLINS prior to, or after, contract award.

(4) LIMITED RIGHTS PARTS: For any individual spare and consumable part TDP the Offeror will deliver with less than GPR, the Offeror shall provide a narrative explanation of the basis for the proposed rights and the Offeror’s analysis of how the proposed rights will not limit the Government to obtaining the individual spare/consumable part from the Offeror on a sole-source/non-competitive basis. The proposed rights and associated analysis for the spare and consumable parts for which the Offeror is unwilling to provide a GPR TDP may affect the Offeror’s evaluation pursuant to M.5.1.2.9.

F. Summary of Changes: The Government has reduced Section B quantities to 8,600 for SubCLINs CLINs 0020AA (FRP 2), 0022AA (FRP 3), 0024AA (FRP 4), 0026AA (FRP 5) and 0028AA (FRP 6). In addition, the PWS Sections C.12.1, C.13.1, C.14.1, C.15.1, C.16.1 and attachment 9 Cost Template has been revised to reflect these changes.

SECTION C - DESCRIPTIONS AND SPECIFICATIONS

The following have been modified:

PERFORMANCE WORK STATEMENT

SECTION C: PERFORMANCE WORK STATEMENT (PWS)

TITLE: XM12 AEROSOL AND VAPOR CHEMICAL AGENT DETECTOR (AVCAD)

C.1 SCOPE.

The Joint Project Manager for Nuclear, Biological and Chemical Contamination Avoidance (JPM NBC CA) is responsible for development, production and fielding of Chemical, Biological, Radiological and Nuclear (CBRN) detection systems. The JPM NBC CA is conducting the Next Generation Chemical Detector 1 (NGCD 1) program to fill known operational gaps in chemical detection. The NGCD 1 also known as XM12 Aerosol and Vapor Chemical Agent Detector (AVCAD), will detect traditional and advanced threat vapors and liquid and solid aerosols.

C.1.1 Background.

The NGCD program received a Milestone A decision in March 2014 to enter the Technology Maturation and Risk Reduction (TMRR) Phase. The JPM NBC CA awarded three (3) contracts to develop and conduct CWA chamber testing with prototypes and the results are promising for the continuation of the program into the Engineering and Manufacturing Development (EMD) phase.
