Section SF 1449 - CONTINUATION SHEET

INSTRUCTION FOR OFFERORS

1. SUBMISSION OF PROPOSALS

A. Submission Instructions:

1) Proposals are due no later than the time and date specified in Block 8 of Standard Form 1449, or SF 30 if applicable.

2) Offeror shall submit its proposal through the FedBizOpps (FBO.gov) system. The requirements and procedures for offer submission are found in the FBO Vendor User Guide located on the FBO webpage at:

https://www.fbo.gov/downloads/FBO_Vendor_Guide.pdf.

3) The electronic proposal shall be in Portable Document Format, filename extension: “.pdf” and suitable for viewing in Adobe Reader. Offerors shall bookmark and label each electronic PDF to afford easy identification from the proposal table of contents.

4) Offerors are responsible for including sufficient details to permit a complete and accurate evaluation of each proposal. Propriety information shall be clearly marked. DO NOT cross reference past performance information. It is acceptable to repeat data, project information, or experience in more than one non-price area as long as it satisfies the requirements of the factor. Extraneous information provided in the proposals will not be considered in the evaluations; therefore, the offeror should only provide information that satisfies the solicitation requirements.

Merely restating the performance work statement or evaluation criteria without sufficient elaboration demonstrates a lack of understanding of the requirement.

5) The offeror must confine the proposal to relevant information and documentation sufficient to provide an adequate basis for evaluation. The page count is at the discretion of the offeror; however the proposal may not be more than fifty (50) pages total. The fifty (50) page limit does NOT include past performance information submitted under Factor 3. Evaluation of the non-price factors will end on the 50th page submitted.

6) The offeror’s proposal shall consist of two (2) volumes; Volume I – Technical Proposal and Volume II – Price Proposal. The use of hyperlinks in proposals is prohibited.

a) Technical Proposal, Volume I: Volume I shall consist of information for the three (3) factors, as stated in FAR clauses 52.212-2:

i. Experience (Factor 1)

ii. Past Performance (Factor 2)

iii. Work Plan (Factor 3)

b) Price Proposal, Volume II: Volume II shall be prepared in accordance with the following and must include:

i. SF 1449 – Solicitation:

The offeror shall complete the SF 1449 Blocks 17a, 30a, 30b, and 30c and have it signed in Block 30b by an official that is authorized to bind the company. The offeror shall also provide and acknowledge all amendments in accordance with the instructions on the SF 30, if applicable.

i. Price Schedule:

The offeror shall complete the Price Schedule found in the solicitation, under section B – Supplies or Services and Prices.

ii. Representations, Certifications, and other Statements of Offerors.

The offeror shall complete all representations and certifications within 52.212-3 Alt 1, and also ensure current registration and completed/updated Annual Representations and Certifications on the System for Award Management (SAM) website, www.sam.gov.

7) Offerors should enter a description for every file uploaded. For files over 10 megabytes (MB) the "Large Upload (JAVA)" button must be used. The combined file size limit for upload using "Large Upload (JAVA)" is 100MB. If needed, the offeror can break single files over 100MB into smaller files or use the upload utility multiple times if files exceed the 100MB size limit.

8) Once the offeror's proposal is submitted, it can be systematically revised prior to the solicitation response deadline. Refer to Paragraph 4.3.2 of the FBO Vendor Guide titled "Reviewing / Editing an Electric Response" for detailed guidance on completing a revision to an electronic proposal submission. Note: the FBO bid response system will send an email to the email address on file for the user confirming the electronic submission. Note: the offeror must be logged into the system to be able to submit / revise electronic responses.

9) For assistance and troubleshooting for the FBO electronic bid response system, contact the Federal Service Desk (FSD.gov). Phone: 866-606-8820 or Web Form (https://gsafsd.service-now.com/fsd-gov/login.do).

10) Do not assume submission will be instantaneous. File size and number of files to be uploaded will be factors to consider. Offeror/Teammate/Subcontractors should allow adequate time for submission completion because the entire proposal (i.e. offerors submission and all teammate/subcontractor(s) independent submissions) must be received by the time and date specified in Block 8 of Standard Form 1449, or SF 30 if applicable.

11) To avoid rejection of an offer, the offeror must make every effort to ensure its electronic submission is virus-free Proposals, or portions thereof, submitted with the presence of a virus or which are otherwise unreadable will be treated as unreadable pursuant to FAR 15.207(c).

CLAUSES INCORPORATED BY FULL TEXT

52.209-7 INFORMATION REGARDING RESPONSIBILITY MATTERS (OCT 2018)

(a) Definitions. As used in this provision--

Administrative proceeding means a non-judicial process that is adjudicatory in nature in order to make a determination of fault or liability (e.g., Securities and Exchange Commission Administrative Proceedings, Civilian Board of Contract Appeals Proceedings, and Armed Services Board of Contract Appeals Proceedings). This includes administrative proceedings at the Federal and State level but only in connection with performance of a Federal contract or grant. It does not include agency actions such as contract audits, site visits, corrective plans, or inspection of deliverables.

Federal contracts and grants with total value greater than $10,000,000 means--

(1) The total value of all current, active contracts and grants, including all priced options; and

(2) The total value of all current, active orders including all priced options under indefinite-delivery, indefinite-quantity, 8(a), or requirements contracts (including task and delivery and multiple-award Schedules).

Principal means an officer, director, owner, partner, or a person having primary management or supervisory responsibilities within a business entity (e.g., general manager; plant manager; head of a division or business segment; and similar positions).

(b) The offeror ( ) has ( ) does not have current active Federal contracts and grants with total value greater than $10,000,000.

(c) If the offeror checked “has” in paragraph (b) of this provision, the offeror represents, by submission of this offer, that the information it has entered in the Federal Awardee Performance and Integrity Information System (FAPIIS) is current, accurate, and complete as of the date of submission of this offer with regard to the following information:

(1) Whether the offeror, and/or any of its principals, has or has not, within the last five years, in connection with the award to or performance by the offeror of a Federal contract or grant, been the subject of a proceeding, at the Federal or State level that resulted in any of the following dispositions:

(i) In a criminal proceeding, a conviction.

(ii) In a civil proceeding, a finding of fault and liability that results in the payment of a monetary fine, penalty, reimbursement, restitution, or damages of $5,000 or more.

(iii) In an administrative proceeding, a finding of fault and liability that results in--

(A) The payment of a monetary fine or penalty of $5,000 or more; or

(B) The payment of a reimbursement, restitution, or damages in excess of $100,000.

(iv) In a criminal, civil, or administrative proceeding, a disposition of the matter by consent or compromise with an acknowledgment of fault by the Contractor if the proceeding could have led to any of the outcomes specified in paragraphs (c)(1)(i), (c)(1)(ii), or (c)(1)(iii) of this provision.

(2) If the offeror has been involved in the last five years in any of the occurrences listed in (c)(1) of this provision, whether the offeror has provided the requested information with regard to each occurrence.

(d) The offeror shall post the information in paragraphs (c)(1)(i) through (c)(1)(iv) of this provision in FAPIIS as required through maintaining an active registration in the System for Award Management, which can be accessed via https://www.sam.gov (see 52.204-7).

https://www.sam.gov/

(End of provision)

52.212-2 EVALUATION--COMMERCIAL ITEMS (OCT 2014)

(A) General.

(1) The acquisition is being conducted as a Small Business set-aside using the Best Value Tradeoff (BVTO) source selection process for award. Award will be made to the offeror whose proposal is determined to present the best value to the Government with consideration of cost and non-cost factors.

(2) The Government intends to make an award without discussions, but reserves the right to conduct discussions should discussions prove to be necessary or advantageous to the Government. Because the Government does not intend to hold discussions, offerors are encouraged to include their best pricing in their initial proposal.

(3) All proposals received will stand alone and be considered complete and final. The Government will not consider any information or data incorporated by reference or otherwise referred to. The successful offeror(s) will be selected solely on the basis of the evaluation factors set forth below. Accordingly, proposals submitted in response to this solicitation should provide clear, complete, concise, and straightforward responses to the evaluation factors.

Elaborate proposals, color brochures, and other excesses are discouraged.

(4) Joint Ventures (JV). A joint venture is defined as a legal business entity formed between two or more companies (parties) to undertake the performance activities of a contract together. This does not include other arrangements such as “teaming agreements” or “strategic alliances,” which are not recognized as bona fide joint ventures for the purposes of this solicitation. An offeror that is a joint venture shall submit a copy of its legally binding joint venture agreement signed by an authorized officer from each of the firms comprising the joint venture with the chief executive of each entity identified. If submitting a proposal as a joint venture, the experience and past performance of each of the joint venture partners can be submitted for the joint venture entity. The experience for each joint venture partner will be considered the experience of the joint venture entity.

(B) Evaluation Factors.

The Government will evaluate proposals using the following factors:

Experience (Factor 1) Past Performance (Factor 2) Work Plan (Factor 3)

Factors 1 through 3 are all approximately equal in importance to one another. All evaluation factors other than price, when combined, are significantly more important than price.

The Government will use the following definitions when evaluating proposals:

Deficiency – A material failure of a proposal to meet a Government requirement or a combination of weaknesses in a proposal that increases the risk of unsuccessful contract performance to an unacceptable level. See FAR 15.001.

Significant Weakness – A flaw in a proposal that appreciably increases the risk of unsuccessful contract performance. See FAR 15.001.

Weakness – A flaw in a proposal that increases the risk of unsuccessful contract performance. See FAR 15.001.

Strength – An aspect of a proposal that has merit or exceeds specified performance or capability requirements in a way that will be advantageous to the Government during contract performance.

Significant Strength – An aspect of an offeror's proposal that has appreciable merit or appreciably exceeds specified performance or capability requirements in a way that will be appreciably advantageous to the Government during contract performance.

C. Volume I – TECHNICAL (Non-Price) SUBMISSION REQUIREMENTS AND EVALUATION.

A. Experience (Factor 1).

Submission Requirements:

The offeror shall submit up to three (3) projects demonstrating the offeror’s recent and relevant experience performing Armed Guard services of similar size, scope, and complexity to the work required by this solicitation.

To be considered, each project must have either been completed or be substantially complete within ten (10) years of the date that proposals are due. Substantially complete is defined as an on-going project in which at least one (1) calendar year of armed guard services have been performed.

For each project submitted under this factor, the offeror shall submit a separate, completed Solicitation Attachment A, “Offeror Experience Form”.

A maximum of three projects will be evaluated. If an offeror disregards these instructions and submits more than three projects, only the first three projects will be evaluated. Offerors should describe each project with enough detail to ensure that the Government can meaningfully assess the projects against the evaluation criteria described in the RFP.

Use of Subcontractor Experience. Offerors may submit experience of subcontractors that it proposes to use under the contract. However, to be considered, project submissions for subcontractors must include a letter of commitment, signed by the prime offeror and subcontractor. In addition, at least 50% of the projects submitted by the offeror must demonstrate experience of the prime offeror (e.g., if submitting 3 projects, at least 2 must demonstrate prime offeror experience; If submitting 2 projects, at least 1 must demonstrate prime offeror experience). If a letter of commitment is not submitted, the experience will not be considered.

Evaluation Method:

The Government will evaluate each proposal to determine the breadth and depth of the offeror’s experience in armed security guard services that are similar in size, scope, and complexity to the work described in the Performance Work Statement (PWS).

In determining strengths and weaknesses, the Government will consider the following:

• The extent of the offeror’s experience in the types of armed guard services outlined in the PWS, to include alarm monitoring services, gate guard services, roving guard services, and administrative services;

• The extent of the offeror’s experience managing security services at multiple (2 or more) sites simultaneously;

• The extent of the offeror’s experience providing guard services with a similar number of positions working 24 hours a day, seven days a week, 365 days a year;

• The extent of the offeror’s experience providing guard services that require interface with the public;

• The extent of the offeror’s experience providing armed guard services in Oregon or Washington.

• The extent of the offeror’s experience providing armed guard services for Department of Defense agencies.

The Government will evaluate this factor using the combined technical/risk rating as follows:

Color Rating Description

Blue Outstanding Proposal indicates an exceptional approach and understanding of the requirements and contains multiple strengths, and risk of unsuccessful performance is low.

Purple Good Proposal indicates a thorough approach and understanding of the requirements and contains at least one strength, and risk of unsuccessful performance is low to moderate.

Green Acceptable Proposal meets requirements and indicates an adequate approach and understanding of the requirements, and risk of unsuccessful performance is no worse than moderate.

Yellow Marginal Proposal has not demonstrated an adequate approach and understanding of the requirements, and/or risk of unsuccessful performance is high.

Red Unacceptable Proposal does not meet requirements of the solicitation, and thus, contains one or more deficiencies, and/or risk of unsuccessful performance is unacceptable. Proposal is unawardable.

Adjectival

Rating Definition

Low Proposal may contain weakness(es) which have little potential to cause disruption of schedule, increased cost or degradation of performance. Normal contractor effort and normal Government monitoring will likely be able to overcome any difficulties.

Moderate

Proposal contains a significant weakness or combination of weaknesses which may potentially cause disruption of schedule, increased cost or degradation of performance.

Special contractor emphasis and close Government monitoring will likely be able to overcome difficulties.

High

Proposal contains a significant weakness or combination of weaknesses which is likely to cause significant disruption of schedule, increased cost or degradation of performance.

Is unlikely to overcome any difficulties, even with special contractor emphasis and close Government monitoring.

Unacceptable Proposal contains a material failure or a combination of significant weaknesses that increases the risk of unsuccessful performance to an unacceptable level.

B. Past Performance (Factor 2).

Submission Requirements:

The offeror shall submit past performance information for each project listed by the offeror under Factor 1 – Experience.

• If a completed Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS) evaluation is available, submit it with the proposal.

• If there is not a completed CPARS evaluation, submit a completed Past Performance Questionnaire (PPQ) for the project. The standard PPQ for USACE is Form PPQ-0 (9/30/11) and it is provided as an attachment to this solicitation. Offerors are advised to ensure correct phone numbers and email addresses are provided for the client point of contact. Do not submit a PPQ when a completed CPARS evaluation is available.

o If the Offeror is unable to obtain a completed PPQ from a client for a project(s) before proposal closing date, the Offeror should complete and submit with the proposal the first page of the PPQ, which will provide contract and client information for the respective project(s).

o Offerors should follow up with clients/references to ensure timely submittal of questionnaires. If the client requests, questionnaires may be submitted directly to the Government's point of contact, Megan Accord, via email at megan.l.acord@usace.army.mil, prior to proposal closing date.

Offerors shall instruct the clients to refer to the solicitation number in the subject line.

mailto:megan.l.acord@usace.army.mil o PPQs are source selection materials. All successfully submitted PPQs will receive an email confirmation upon receipt. If the offeror does not receive the confirmation, it is the offeror’s responsibility to follow up to ensure the Government has received the information.

Offerors shall not incorporate by reference into their proposal PPQs or CPARS previously submitted for other procurements. However, this does not preclude the Government from utilizing previously submitted PPQ information in the past performance evaluation.

Offerors may provide explanation on problems encountered on past projects and the corrective actions taken by the offeror.

In addition to the above, the Government may review any other sources of information for evaluating past performance. Other sources may include, but are not limited to, past performance information retrieved through the Past Performance Information Retrieval System (PPIRS), including CPARS, using all CAGE/DUNS numbers of team members (partnership, joint venture, teaming arrangement, or parent company/subsidiary/affiliate) identified in the offeror’s proposal, inquiries of owner representative(s), Federal Awardee Performance and Integrity Information System (FAPIIS), Electronic Subcontract Reporting System (eSRS), telephone interviews with organizations familiar with the offeror’s performance, Government personnel with personal knowledge of the offeror’s performance capability, and any other known sources not provided by the offeror.

While the Government may elect to consider data from other sources, the burden of providing detailed, current, accurate, and complete past performance information rests with the offeror.

Evaluation Method:

The past performance evaluation results in an assessment of the offeror’s probability of meeting the solicitation requirements. The past performance valuation considers each offeror’s demonstrated recent and relevant record of performance in supplying products and services that meet the contract’s requirements. In accordance with FAR 15.305(a)(2), the currency and relevance of the information, source of the information, context of the data, and general trends in contractor’s performance shall be considered. These are combined to establish one performance confidence assessment rating for each offeror.

There are three aspects to the past performance evaluation: recency, relevancy (including context of data), and quality (including general trends in contractor performance and source of information).

The first aspect is to evaluate the recency of the offeror’s past performance. For this solicitation, recent projects are those that have been completed or substantially complete within ten (10) years of the date proposals are due.

Substantially complete is an on-going project in which at least one (1) calendar year of work has been performed.

The second aspect is to determine how relevant a recent effort accomplished by the offeror is to the work required by this RFP. In establishing what is relevant for the acquisition, consideration should be given to those aspects of an offeror’s history of contract (or subcontract) performance that would provide the most context and give the greatest ability to measure whether the offeror will successfully satisfy the current requirement. There are four levels of relevancy as shown in the table below.

Past Performance Relevancy Ratings Rating Description

Very Relevant Present/past performance effort involved essentially the same scope and magnitude of effort and complexities this solicitation requires.

Relevant Present/past performance effort involved similar scope and magnitude of effort and complexities this solicitation requires.

Somewhat Present/past performance effort involved some of the scope and magnitude Relevant of effort and complexities this solicitation requires.

Not Relevant Present/past performance effort involved little or none of the scope and magnitude of effort and complexities this solicitation requires.

More relevant past performance will typically be a stronger predictor of future success and have more influence on the past performance confidence assessment than past performance of lesser relevance.

The third aspect of the past performance evaluation, quality, is to determine how well the offeror performed on its past performance projects. The past performance evaluation does not establish, create, or change the existing record and history of the offeror’s past performance on past contracts; rather, the past performance evaluation process gathers information from customers on how well the offeror performed those past contracts. If any performance issues are identified, the Government will consider the number, type, and severity of the problems, and effectiveness of corrective actions taken. If an issue did arise in the performance of work, the Government will consider the ability of the offeror to successfully adapt to the changes, problems, and setbacks.

Based on a consideration of those three aspects, the Government will assign a final Performance Confidence Assessment rating for this factor. The Government will review the past performance information and determine the quality and usefulness as it applies to the performance confidence assessment. In conducting a performance confidence assessment, each offeror shall be assigned one of the ratings using the table below.

Performance Confidence Assessments

RATING DESCRIPTION

Substantial Confidence

Based on the offeror’s recent/relevant performance record, the Government has a high expectation that the offeror will successfully perform the required effort.

Satisfactory Confidence

Based on the offeror’s recent/relevant performance record, the Government has a reasonable expectation that the offeror will successfully perform the required effort.

Neutral Confidence

No recent/relevant performance record is available or the offeror’s performance record is so sparse that no meaningful confidence assessment rating can be reasonably assigned. The offeror may not be evaluated favorably or unfavorably on the factor of past performance.

Limited Confidence Based on the offeror’s recent/relevant performance record, the Government has a low expectation that the offeror will be able to successfully perform the required effort.

No Confidence Based on the offeror’s recent/relevant performance record, the Government has no expectation that the offeror will be able to successfully perform the required effort.

In the case of an offeror without a record of relevant past performance or for which information on past performance is not available, the offeror may not be evaluated favorably or unfavorably on the factor of past contract performance. In this case, the offeror’s past performance is unknown and assigned a Neutral Confidence rating.

C. Work Plan (Factor 3).

Submission Requirements:

The purpose of this factor is to determine the offeror’s overall understanding of the Performance Work Statement (PWS) and its plan to initiate and maintain continuity of armed guard services at the three LCR sites identified in the

PWS.

The offeror shall submit the following under this factor:

• The offeror’s management plan, to include the offeror’s management structure, coordination and communication strategy between sites, and the role of the Contractor Supervisory Manager (CSM) and site leads.

• The offeror’s staffing plan for each location. Include the anticipated shift lengths for each position.

Discuss how the offeror intends to recruit and maintain sufficient staff to ensure 100% coverage at each location. Also discuss how replacement personnel will be made available for those employees that miss their shifts.

• The offeror’s plan for ensuring all employees are properly licensed, trained, and certified, both prior to commencement of services and throughout contract performance.

• The offeror’s plan to support those instances where additional guards are needed for short periods of time, and a discussion of the offeror’s plan to provide additional staffing if it were to become necessary for security reasons.

• The offeror’s transition plan to assume responsibility for the requirements of the contract in a period of 30 days at all three locations on the LCR.

Evaluation Method:

The offeror’s work plan will be evaluated for reasonableness in meeting the requirements specified in the Performance Work Summary (PWS).

In determining strengths and weaknesses, the Government will consider the following:

• The adequacy and feasibility of:

o The offeror’s plan to manage the facilities day-to-day to ensure 24/7 coverage within the requirements of the PWS;

o The offeror’s plan to manage all services and coordination of personnel at three remote locations, to include the offeror’s communication strategy;

o The offeror’s plan to staff appropriate personnel throughout the life of the contract, to include ensuring staff is certified, trained, and retained;

o The offeror’s plan to account for unexpected instances that require additional guards; and o The offeror’s plan to timely transition between the current in and the offeror and assume responsibility for the requirements of the services contemplated by this solicitation.

The Government will evaluate this factor using the combined technical/risk rating as follows:

Color Rating Description

Blue Outstanding Proposal indicates an exceptional approach and understanding of the requirements and contains multiple strengths, and risk of unsuccessful performance is low.

Purple Good Proposal indicates a thorough approach and understanding of the requirements and contains at least one strength, and risk of unsuccessful performance is low to moderate.

Green Acceptable Proposal meets requirements and indicates an adequate approach and understanding of the requirements, and risk of unsuccessful performance is no worse than moderate.

Yellow Marginal Proposal has not demonstrated an adequate approach and understanding of the requirements, and/or risk of unsuccessful performance is high.

Red Unacceptable Proposal does not meet requirements of the solicitation, and thus, contains one or more deficiencies, and/or risk of unsuccessful performance is unacceptable. Proposal is unawardable.

Adjectival Rating Definition

Low Proposal may contain weakness(es) which have little potential to cause disruption of schedule, increased cost or degradation of performance. Normal contractor effort and normal Government monitoring will likely be able to overcome any difficulties.

Moderate

Proposal contains a significant weakness or combination of weaknesses which may potentially cause disruption of schedule, increased cost or degradation of performance.

Special contractor emphasis and close Government monitoring will likely be able to overcome difficulties.

High

Proposal contains a significant weakness or combination of weaknesses which is likely to cause significant disruption of schedule, increased cost or degradation of performance.

Is unlikely to overcome any difficulties, even with special contractor emphasis and close Government monitoring.

Unacceptable Proposal contains a material failure or a combination of significant weaknesses that increases the risk of unsuccessful performance to an unacceptable level.

D. Volume II, Price Proposal – Proposal Price Schedule.

The Proposal Price Schedule submitted in Volume II, Price Proposal will be evaluated to determine fairness and reasonableness. This award will be for a firm-fixed-price commercial service contract. For evaluation purposes, the total evaluated price will be calculated by adding the total price for all optional items, including services under FAR 52.217-8, to the total price for the base CLINs. The evaluated price of services under FAR 52.217-8 will be calculated as one-half of the total price for CLINs 4001-4003. Evaluation of options will not obligate the Government to exercise the options.

The Government may determine that a proposal is unacceptable if the prices proposed are materially unbalanced between line items. Unbalanced pricing exists when, despite an acceptable total evaluated price, the price of one or more contract line items is significantly overstated or understated as indicated by the application of cost or price analysis techniques. A proposal may be rejected if the Contracting Officer determines that the lack of balance poses an unacceptable risk to the Government
