SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS

Disclaimer: This is a combined synopsis/solicitation for a commercial item prepared in accordance with the format at FAR Subpart 12.6, as supplemented with additional information included in this notice. This announcement constitutes the only solicitation; quotations are being requested and a written solicitation will not be issued.

(i) Description of Requirement: The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) Buffalo District has a requirement for the procurement of the Formerly Utilized Sites Remedial Action Program (FUSRAP) Environmental Data Management System (FEDMS). This requirement is for non-personal services to create a centralized FEDMS for the FUSRAP National Program that utilizes, and builds upon, the Environmental Resources Program Information Management System (ERPIMS) database schema that has been implemented and managed by the Air Force Civil Engineer Center (AFCEC), formerly the Air Force Center for Engineering and Environment (AFCEE). The ERPIMS schema has proven to be both effective and efficient in the management of environmental data since it was implemented by the U.S. Air Force in 1987. Currently, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) districts working on FUSRAP projects utilize different systems and methods for the storage and management of environmental data.

The implementation of this program-wide FEDMS will promote the following objectives under FUSRAP: (1) A centralized repository for all FUSRAP site environmental data; (2) Improved data integrity through the use of a standard environmental data schema; (3) Improved ease of data access through the use of a standard secure web-based graphical user interface (GUI); (4) Custom data reporting options for project staff; (5) Increased data accuracy for data transfer to Department of Energy – Office of Legacy Management (DOE-LM); and (6) Cost savings during site closeout and transfer to DOE- LM.

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

Covered contractor information system means an information system that is owned or operated by a contractor that processes, stores, or transmits Federal contract information.

Federal contract information means information, not intended for public release, that is provided by or generated for the Government under a contract to develop or deliver a product or service to the Government, but not including information provided by the Government to the public (such as on public Web sites) or simple transactional information, such as necessary to process payments.

Information means any communication or representation of knowledge such as facts, data, or opinions, in any medium or form, including textual, numerical, graphic, cartographic, narrative, or audiovisual (Committee on National Security Systems Instruction (CNSSI) 4009).

Information system means a discrete set of information resources organized for the collection, processing, maintenance, use, sharing, dissemination, or disposition of information (44 U.S.C. 3502).

Safeguarding means measures or controls that are prescribed to protect information systems.

(b) Safeguarding requirements and procedures.

(1) The Contractor shall apply the following basic safeguarding requirements and procedures to protect covered contractor information systems. Requirements and procedures for basic safeguarding of covered contractor information systems shall include, at a minimum, the following security controls:

(ii) Limit information system access to the types of transactions and functions that authorized users are permitted to execute.

(iii) Verify and control/limit connections to and use of external information systems.

(iv) Control information posted or processed on publicly accessible information systems.

(vii) Sanitize or destroy information system media containing Federal Contract Information before disposal or release for reuse.

(viii) Limit physical access to organizational information systems, equipment, and the respective operating environments to authorized individuals.

(ix) Escort visitors and monitor visitor activity; maintain audit logs of physical access; and control and manage physical access devices.

(x) Monitor, control, and protect organizational communications (i.e., information transmitted or received by organizational information systems) at the external boundaries and key internal boundaries of the information systems.

(xi) Implement subnetworks for publicly accessible system components that are physically or logically separated from internal networks.

(xii) Identify, report, and correct information and information system flaws in a timely manner.

(xiii) Provide protection from malicious code at appropriate locations within organizational information systems.

(xiv) Update malicious code protection mechanisms when new releases are available.

(xv) Perform periodic scans of the information system and real-time scans of files from external sources as files are downloaded, opened, or executed.

(2) Other requirements. This clause does not relieve the Contractor of any other specific safeguarding requirements specified by Federal agencies and departments relating to covered contractor information systems generally or other Federal safeguarding requirements for controlled unclassified information (CUI) as established by Executive Order 13556.

(c) Subcontracts. The Contractor shall include the substance of this clause, including this paragraph (c), in subcontracts under this contract (including subcontracts for the acquisition of commercial items, other than commercially available off-the-shelf items), in which the subcontractor may have Federal contract information residing in or transiting through its information system.

(4) Offers may be withdrawn by written notice received via email to the Contract Specialist and Contracting Officer at any time before the exact time set for receipt of offers.

However, the Government reserves the right to conduct exchanges if later determined by the Contracting Officer to be necessary. The Government intends not to follow the clarification/discussion rules of FAR Part 15, but rather reserves the right to conduct exchanges with any one or more offerors that submit offers. Simplified Acquisition Procedures under FAR Subpart 13.5, Commercial Item Test Program are being used for this acquisition.

The evaluation team may determine one or a few offers have the highest potential to provide the best value to the Government. Once the offer(s) is/are identified, the Government may hold exchanges with only that one (or fewer than all offerors) to address any remaining issues and settle the final terms of the contract. The Government may reject any or all offers if such action is in the public interest; accept other than the lowest offer; and waive informalities and minor irregularities in offers received.

The Offeror also shall enter its Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) indicator, if applicable. The EFT indicator is a four-character suffix to the unique entity identifier. The suffix is assigned at the discretion of the Offeror to establish additional SAM records for identifying alternative EFT accounts (see FAR Subpart 32.11) for the same entity. If the Offeror does not have a unique entity identifier, it should contact the entity designated at www.sam.gov for unique entity identifier establishment directly to obtain one. The Offeror should indicate that it is an offeror for a Government contract when contacting the entity designated at www.sam.gov for establishing the unique entity identifier.

Request for information. If an offeror requests information on an award that was based on factors other than price alone, a brief explanation of the basis for the contract award decision shall be provided (see 15.503(b)(2))..

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

(a) The Government will award a contract resulting from this solicitation to the responsible offeror whose offer conforming to the solicitation will be most advantageous to the Government, price and other factors considered. The following factors shall be used to evaluate offers:

Required Labor Categories/Experience, Past Performance, Price

Under simplified acquisition procedures, it is not a requirement to state the relative order of importance of the evaluation factors (see FAR 13.106-1(a)(2)(iii)and FAR 12.602(a)).

Required Labor Categories/Experience: Resumes will be evaluated to determine quality, depth, and relevance of experience in meeting the Appendix A requirements for each labor category.

Past Performance: Past performance will be evaluated based on the recency, relevancy, and quality of each project submitted.

Price: Price will be evaluated by the Contracting Officer to determine that the offer price is fair and reasonable.

Whenever possible, price reasonableness will be based on competitive quotations received. If only one response is received, the Contracting Officer will base the price reasonableness determination on one or multiple techniques stated at FAR 13.106-3(a)(2). The Contracting Officer will also consider techniques detailed in DFARS 212.209, if determined necessary

(b) Options. The Government will evaluate offers for award purposes by adding the total price for all options to the total price for the basic requirement. The Government may determine that an offer is unacceptable if the option prices are significantly unbalanced. Evaluation of options shall not obligate the Government to exercise the option(s).

(c) A written notice of award or acceptance of an offer, mailed or otherwise furnished to the successful offeror within the time for acceptance specified in the offer, shall result in a binding contract without further action by either party. Before the offer's specified expiration time, the Government may accept an offer (or part of an offer), whether or not there are negotiations after its receipt, unless a written notice of withdrawal is received before award.
