The Contracting Officer for this acquisition is as follows: Ms. Veronica A. Romero

2. Period for Acceptance of Offers

Unless Offerors insert a different period of time on the Standard Form 33, the entire proposal will remain valid for a period of 300 days from date of receipt specified in the solicitations for the proposals.

3. Proposal Instructions

a. Offerors are cautioned that “parroting” of the Technical requirements or the Basic and/or Live Task Order PWS with a statement of intent to perform does not reflect an understanding of the requirement or capability to perform, therefore will be considered technically unacceptable and will not be considered further. Offerors are responsible for including sufficient details to permit a complete and accurate evaluation of each proposal. Proprietary information shall be clearly marked.

b. All information the Offeror wishes to have considered must be provided with the written proposal. The evaluation will be limited to the information provided and nothing will be assumed.

c. The Solicitation will be a single-phased competition. Awards will be based on evaluation of the factors described in ADDENDUM to 52.212-2 Evaluation – Commercial Items (Section M). Failure to follow the directions put forth in the Solicitation may eliminate the proposal from further consideration. The Government intends to evaluate proposals and award contracts without discussions with Offerors (except clarifications as described in FAR 15.306(a), Clarifications and award without discussions). Therefore, the Offeror’s initial proposal should contain the Offeror’s best terms from a cost or price and technical standpoint. The Government reserves the right to conduct discussions if the Contracting Officer later determines them to be necessary. In the event discussions are held, a competitive range determination will be made. If the Contracting Officer determines that the number of proposals that would otherwise be in the competitive range exceeds the number at which an efficient competition can be conducted, the Contracting Officer may limit the number of proposals in the competitive range to the greatest number that will permit an efficient competition among the most highly rated proposals pursuant to FAR Subpart 15.306(c).

d. Teaming with other Contractors is strongly encouraged, including teaming with Small Businesses; in order to assure maximum market resources are available. Offerors shall describe any teaming arrangements (i.e., teaming agreements, joint venture, partnership, etc.) proposed for performance of the Contract. Offerors shall indicate the portion of work to be performed by each team member and shall state the business size of each member. In addition, Offerors shall include copies of all teaming agreements, and where applicable, the Small Business Administration approval of the teaming arrangement in Volume I, Factor 1, Relevant Corporate Experience and Management Approach.

NOTE: Offeror shall identify its proposed team (prime and all subcontractors/team members) and discuss the role that each member will have in accomplishing the specific functional area requirements of the PWS.

e. North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) Code and Small Business Size Standard: The NAICS Code for this acquisition is 562910 which is 750 employees or less.

f. This Solicitation notice does not commit the U.S. Government to an award for any supply or service or any information or administrative costs incurred in preparation and submission of a proposal in response to this notice.

4. Definitions

a. Subcontracting: In accordance with Federal Acquisition Regulations (FAR) Clause 52.219-14 LIMITATIONS ON SUBCONTRACTING (Nov 2011):

(c) By submission of an offer and execution of a contract, the Offeror/Contractor agrees that in performance of the contract in the case of a contract for --

(1) Services (except construction). At least 50 percent of the cost of contract performance incurred for personnel shall be expended for employees of the concern.

(2) Supplies (other than procurement from a nonmanufacturer of such supplies). The concern shall perform work for at least 50 percent of the cost of manufacturing the supplies, not including the cost of materials.

(3) General construction. The concern will perform at least 15 percent of the cost of the contract, not including the cost of materials, with its own employees.

(4) Construction by special trade contractors. The concern will perform at least 25 percent of the cost of the contract, not including the cost of materials, with its own employees.

b. Joint Venture: In accordance with FAR Clause 19.101(7)(i) EXPLANATION OF TERMS (15 June 2016):

(i) Definition of a joint venture for size determination purposes. A joint venture for size determination purposes is an association of persons or concerns with interests in any degree or proportion by way of contract, express or implied, consorting to engage in and carry out a single specific business venture for joint profit, for which purpose they combine their efforts, property, money, skill, or knowledge, but not on a continuing or permanent basis for conducting business generally. A joint venture is viewed as a business entity in determining power to control its management.

(B) For other than bundled requirements, apply size standards for the requirement to individual persons or concerns, not to the combined assets, of the joint venture, if—

(1) A revenue-based size standard applies to the requirement and the estimated contract value, including options, exceeds one-half the applicable size standard; or

(2) An employee-based size standard applies to the requirement and the estimated contract value, including options, exceeds $10 million.

Also,

(iii) Joint venture. Concerns submitting offers on a particular acquisition as joint ventures are considered as affiliated and controlling or having the power to control each other with regard to performance of the contract. Moreover, an ostensible subcontractor which is to perform primary or vital requirements of a contract may have a controlling role such to be considered a joint venturer affiliated on the contract with the Prime Contractor. A joint venture affiliation finding is limited to particular contracts unless the SBA size determination finds general affiliation between the parties. The rules governing 8(a) Program joint ventures are described in 13 CFR 124.513.

(iv) Where a concern is not considered as being an affiliate of a concern with which it is participating in a joint venture, it is necessary, nevertheless, in computing annual receipts, etc., for the purpose of applying size standards, to include such concern’s share of the joint venture receipts (as distinguished from its share of the profits of such venture).

For the purposes of this Contract, a Joint Venture must be a separate legal entity.

When proposing as a Joint Venture, all members of the Joint Venture shall sign the SF 33 unless a written agreement by the Joint Venture is furnished with the proposal designating one firm with the authority to bind the other member(s) of the Joint Venture. In addition, a copy of the Joint Venture agreement shall be submitted with the proposal in Volume I. Failure to comply with the foregoing requirements may eliminate the proposal from further consideration. If this is an 8(a), HUBZone, or Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned joint venture, the Offeror shall ensure that it complies with the applicable requirements of 13 CFR Part 124, 13 CFR Part 125, and 13 CFR Part 126 respectively. The Joint Venture shall include a copy of its SBA approval of the Joint Venture arrangement, if applicable.

c. Teaming Arrangements: In accordance with FAR Clause 19.101(7)(vi) EXPLANATION OF TERMS (15 June 2016) (vi):

Size determination for teaming arrangements. For size determination purposes, apply the size standard tests in paragraphs (7)(i)(A) and (B) of this section when a teaming arrangement of two or more business concerns submits an offer, as appropriate. (Reference 4.b. Joint Venture Definition above.)

d. Mentor-Protégé: In accordance with 13 CFR 124.520 RULES GOVERNING SBA’s MENTOR/PROTÉGÉ

PROGRAM:

(1) A mentor and protégé may joint venture as a Small Business for any Government Prime Contract or Subcontract, including procurements with a dollar value less than half the size standard corresponding to the assigned NAICS code and 8(a) sole source contracts, provided the protégé qualifies as small for the procurement and, for purposes of 8(a) sole source requirements, the protégé has not reached the dollar limit set forth in § 124.519.

(i) SBA must approve the mentor/protégé agreement before the two firms may submit an offer as a joint venture on a particular Government Prime Contract or subcontract in order for the joint venture to receive the exclusion from affiliation.

(ii) In order to receive the exclusion from affiliation for both 8(a) and non-8(a) procurements, the joint venture must meet the requirements set forth in § 124.513(c).

(iii) Once a protégé firm graduates from or otherwise leaves the 8(a) BD program, it will not be eligible for any further benefits from its mentor/protégé relationship (i.e., the receipts and/or employees of the protégé and mentor will generally be aggregated in determining size for any joint venture between the mentor and protégé after the protégé leaves the 8(a) BD program). Leaving the 8(a) BD program, or terminating the mentor/protégé relationship while a protégé firm is still in the program, does not, however, affect contracts previously awarded to a joint venture between the protégé and its mentor. In such a case, the joint venture continues to qualify as small for previously awarded contracts and is obligated to continue performance on those contracts.

(2) Notwithstanding the requirements set forth in §§ 124.105(g) and (h), in order to raise capital for the protégé firm, the mentor may own an equity interest of up to 40% in the protégé firm.

(3) Notwithstanding the mentor/protégé relationship, a protégé firm may qualify for other assistance as a Small Business, including SBA financial assistance.

(4) No determination of affiliation or control may be found between a protégé firm and its mentor based on the mentor/protégé agreement or any assistance provided pursuant to the agreement.

Mentor-Protégé (M-P) is a relationship and not a business entity. M-Ps require formal Teaming Arrangements or Letters of Intent to qualify for consideration as a team member.

e. Offeror: Team submitting the Proposal. Prime shall refer to the entity to which the Contract shall be awarded.

f. Team/Team Member(s)/Teaming Partner(s): The Government will consider the Offeror and all subcontractors a “team” when evidence of a signed Teaming Arrangement or Letter of Intent is provided.

g. Teaming Arrangement (TA) Or Letter Of Intent (LOI): To be valid under this solicitation, all team members shall have a signed TAs or LOI that commits the parties to performance under this contract, should it be awarded to the Prime.

h. SUBCONTRACTORS:

(i)If any subcontractor is projected to perform more than 20% of all work on the EMRA Multiple Award IDIQ then a signed TA or LOI shall be provided for that subcontractor.

(ii) Subcontractors projected to perform less than 20% of all work on the contract may be included as team members at the Offeror’s discretion. If included as a team member, a signed TAs or LOI shall be provided for that subcontractor.

(iii) A subcontractor without a signed TAs or LOI is not considered as part of the “team” and will not be evaluated as such.

(iv) Mission Capability proposal information, Past Performance Information, and Past Performance Questionnaires submitted for subcontractors without a TAs or LOI will not be evaluated.

(v) The Government will consider the Offeror and all subcontractors a “team” when evidence of a signed TAs or LOI is provided in Volume I, General and in Volume II, Mission Capability.

NOTE: Team/Team Member(s)/Teaming Partner(s). The Government will consider the offeror and all subcontractors a “team” when evidence of a signed Teaming Arrangement or Letter of Intent is provided. This RFP will refer to the offeror and all identified teaming subcontractors as a “team.” This RFP will refer to all identified teaming subcontractors as “team members” or “teaming partners.”

If the Offeror provides a specific Task Order as its "project," it shall provide the Basic Contract number and the Task Order number for reference purposes. If the Offeror provides a site-specific/stand-alone “C- Type” contract as its "project," it shall provide the Contract number for reference purposes.

To qualify as a project, work must be at least 80% complete by the proposal due date. For projects that are not 100% complete, the Offeror shall: 1) explain the metric used to demonstrate 80% complete (e.g., based on cost, schedule, objectives achieved); 2) provide the estimated completion date; and 3) briefly summarize the remaining activities.
