ACC+DTA+GROUND+MANEUVER+CSO_Amendment+33 // FALCONS+AOI+-+Posted+06+OCT+2026

3.2.1 // 9.9 Bullet #4 / 5 // 10 The instructions in the CSO Amendment 33 document state that all solutions briefs must include "... a rough order of magnitude price for the proposed solution and include desired payment terms.". The FALCONS AoI White Paper instructions state in section 9.9 that Offerors must provide "7.Estimated unit-cost drivers for potential follow-on production" and" 8.Estimated unit cost at representative quantities of 22, 51, 101". There is no mention of a ROM in the FALCONS AoI instructions. Can the Government confirm if a ROM is required as part of the submission for the FALCONS White Paper? If so, should this be provided as a separate document?

Yes, a ROM is required as part of the white paper submission. It may be provided as an appendix, attachment, or a separate document.

ACC+DTA+GROUND+MANEUVER+CSO_Amendment+33 3.1 6 4 The CSO requirements state that all solutions briefs, presentations, and proposals must be unclassified. For the purpose of the FALCONS Solution Brief, can Offerors submit CUI? If yes, should Offerors request a DoD SAFELink?

Yes, Offerors may submit CUI information and a DoD SAFELink can be provided.

FALCONS+AOI+-+Posted+06+OCT+2026 8.2 & 9.5 6 & 9-10 The white paper organization list in 8.2 does not list the Test Verification Matrix (TVM) as it's own narrative section, but in section 9.5 of the white paper content requirements, TVM is listed as its own narrative section where Offerors can describe global considerations. Is it the Government's expectation that TVM should have it's own narrative section, resulting in 12 white paper sections for 8.2?

The TVM should not be a separate section under 8.2. As stated, the TVM should be an appendix to the WP to describe global considerations

FALCONS+AOI+-+Posted+06+OCT+2026 9.5 9-10 Should the Test Verification Matrix (TVM) be submitted as a separate matrix as its own appendix in the White Paper or as a separate attachment to the WP? Or should the TVM responses be included as part of the performance spec compliance matrix appendix (9.4)?

The TVM section of the Compliance Matrix is a drop down list that should identify the method. Offerors may provide additional information regarding their TVM selection in the TVM appendix as stated in the above question.

FALCONS+AOI+-+Posted+06+OCT+2026 6 // 9.9 Bullet #3 4 // 10 Can Offerors assume that the GFP indicated in Section 6.0 will be provided at the time of production for the purpose of generating the unit cost estimates requested in Section 9.9?

GFP listed will be provided for the MTA-RP. All GFP listed with the exception of the LRAS3 TDY, VMY, Battery box, and cables will be provided for follow-on production. Although the MCODE (MGUE) GPS receiver will be provided as Government-Furnished Property (GFP), PMGS requests that any proposed changes or variances to these items be quoted separately in the Rough Order of Magnitude (ROM).
