1. Introduction.

The offeror’s proposal shall be submitted in hard copy, with accompanying digital copies, as set forth below.

Failure to include digital copies shall result in an unresponsive proposal. The RFP will provide the Government’s address and receipt date for proposal submittal.

The offeror’s proposal shall consist of three (3) volumes. The Volumes are: Volume I – Technical/Risk, Volume II

Past Performance, and Volume III – Price. Files shall not contain classified data. The use of hyperlinks in proposals is prohibited.

Offerors are cautioned that “parroting” of the Technical requirements or the PWS with a statement of intent to perform does not reflect an understanding of the requirement or capability to perform. Offerors are responsible for including sufficient details to permit a complete and accurate evaluation of each proposal. Proprietary information shall be clearly marked.

2. Proposal Submission Requirements

a. Each volume shall be submitted in a separate binder. Any pages that are changed (as a result of negotiations or proposal revisions) should be of a different color and have changed information clearly marked by a vertical line in the right margin of the page.

The revised pages shall be dated. Each binder shall be clearly labeled with its Title and a copy number (e.g., copy 1 of 5).
