In addition to section B, Attachment 4 Sample Price List - MRALS for each ordering period must be completed. The proposed unit price shall be rounded to two decimal places.

CLIN 0003 - TRAVEL will be evaluated based on a Not to Exceed (NTE) amount of $175,000 per year for each ordering period.

CLIN 0003 Description PLUG FIIGURE Indirect Cap Rate Total Ordering Period 1 Travel $175,000.00 _________% $____________ Ordering Period 2 Travel $175,000.00 _________% $____________ Ordering Period 3 Travel $175,000.00 _________% $____________ Ordering Period 4 Travel $175,000.00 _________% $____________ Ordering Period 5 Travel $175,000.00 _________% $____________

* The Offeror shall identify any Indirect Rates (G&A, Overhead, Handling Fee, etc.) that will be applied to Travel. This rate is a cap that will be applied for that period. The Offeror shall provide a list of each Indirect Rate to be applied; address whether the rate will be applied to Travel and provide the value of the rate to be applied. The Offeror shall then apply the Indirect Rates to the Not to Exceed (NTE) values provided by the Government for Travel. The resulting total value will represent the fully burdened total amount cost for Travel.

This calculation will be used for evaluation purposes only and will not impact the Travel NTE amounts provided by the Government in the contract. The NTE amounts provided by the Government for Travel (will incorporate any indirect rates) will be the cap that is incorporated into the contract at award.

CLINs 0004– Contractor Manpower Reporting (CMR). Reporting of contractor manpower data IAW instructions contained in paragraph 5.16.10 of the PWS. Offeror will determine, in Section B, CLIN 0004 to price or not-separately-price the CMRA requirement. The CMR costs shall be proposed, if any, as a Firm Fixed Price.

If there is no cost for the report(s), Offerors shall annotate “Not Separately Priced” in the amount blocks on each applicable CLIN. Offerors shall explain in the pricing narrative how they arrived at the amount proposed. CLIN(s) 0005shall be the CLIN(s) under which the Contractor shall bill for all costs associated with the eCMRA requirement.

The offeror shall ensure the units prices are represented in two decimal positions only (example: $0.27, not $0.27458).

The offeror may provide background information, other than the pricing data that is required, concerning its pricing methodology. This information might include details of the methodology applicable to your offer.

The data, if submitted, would be used by the government to better understand their pricing.

VOLUME IV: PAST PERFORMANCE: 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 work being procured under this solicitation and as defined in Section M.

Past Performance information described herein is required on the offeror and all subcontractors, teaming partners, and/or joint venture partners performing work that constitutes more than 25% of the total proposed cost of the contract. The offeror shall submit, along with the information required in this paragraph, a consent letter, executed by each subcontractor, teaming partner, and/or joint venture partner performing work that constitutes more than 25% of the total proposed cost of the contract, 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

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 5 years for services for the submitted data. The offeror SHALL NOT submit more than 3 projects from that timeframe. The past performance data shall document a successful history of past contract performance.

In conducting the Past Performance evaluation, the Government reserves the right to use both the information provided in the offeror’s Past Performance Volume and information obtained from other sources, such as the Past Performance Information Retrieval System (PPIRS) or similar systems, Defense Contract Management Agency (DCMA) and commercial sources. 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. In the case of an offeror without a record of relevant past performance or for whom information on past performance is not available or so sparse that no meaningful past performance rating can be reasonably assigned, the offeror may not be evaluated favorably or unfavorably on past performance (see FAR 15.305 (a)(2)(iv)). Therefore, the offeror shall be determined to have unknown past performance. In the context of acceptability/unacceptability, “unknown” shall be considered “acceptable.”

Submission requirements: The offeror shall submit a Past Performance Volume containing the following:

(a) TAB A - Table of Contents

(b) TAB B Consent Letters executed by each subcontractor, teaming partner, and/or joint venture partner, authorizing the release of past performance information so the offeror can respond to such information. A sample consent letter is attached as Attachment 5.

(c) TAB C 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.

(d) TAB D Specific Relevant Contracts Format. Sheets shall be in accordance with Attachment 6 and 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.

The past performance information provided will be evaluated to determine the extent of:

a. Quality of Service

b. Similar Work Experience

c. Timeliness of Performance

d. Customer Satisfaction

2. Replace paragraph (c) entitled “Period of acceptance of offers” with the following instruction:

(c) Period of acceptance of offers. The offeror agrees to hold the prices in its offer firm for 120 days from the date specified for receipt of offers.

3. Replace paragraph (e) entitled “Multiple offers” with the following instructions:

(e) Multiple offers. Offeror shall submit only one offer presenting the terms and conditions or commercial items for satisfying the requirements of this solicitation.

4. Replace paragraph (h) entitled “Multiple Awards” with the following:

(h) Multiple awards. The Government will award on an “all or none” basis.

(End of Summary of Changes)
