8. PROPOSALSUBMISSIONREQUIREMENTS AND INSTRUCTIONS

a. REQUIREMENT FOR SEPARATE TECHNICAL AND COST PROPOSALS.

DO NOT MIX CONTENTS OF VOLUME 1 (Technical) AND VOLUME 2 (Cost) IN THE

SAME BINDER.

(1) Each offeror must submit a Technical Proposal and a Cost Proposal. The Technical Proposal and the Cost Proposal must be submitted as separate volumes. Both the Technical and Cost Proposal shall be paginated (contain consecutive page numbers on each page).

(2) The outside cover of each separate volume (Vol 1 – Technical; Vol 2 – Cost) must be clearly marked to indicate its contents and the identity of the Offeror. Additionally, identify the “original” Technical proposal and the “original” Cost/Cost proposal on the outside cover.

(3) Both the Technical Proposal and the Cost Proposal must be received by the closing date and time set for receipt of proposals.

(4) Pricing Schedule, Vol 2, shall be completed in full.

(5) Do not include any dollar amounts in the Technical Proposal that are taken from the Cost Proposal.

(6) All information intended to be evaluated as part of the Technical Proposal must be submitted within the Technical Proposal. Do not cross-reference material in the Cost Proposal, or vice versa. Also, do not include links to websites in your proposal. Technical Proposals will not be provided to the Cost team and Cost Proposals will not be provided to the technical team. Therefore, information submitted in the wrong Volume could lead to the proposal being determined “unacceptable” if materially incomplete in any aspect.

(7) Do not attempt to modify the terms and conditions of the solicitation in either the technical or

Cost proposal or add conditions or qualifications to your offer. Should the offeror include terms and conditions that conflict with the terms and conditions of the Solicitation, the offer may be determined "unacceptable" and thus ineligible for award. Any questions related to specific terms and conditions contained within the Solicitation should be resolved prior to submission of the offer. Notwithstanding the above, the offeror must clearly describe on the Proposal Cover Sheet submitted with the Cost Proposal any modifications to the contractual and/or technical terms and conditions of the solicitation contained in the Offer.

(8) Failure to submit required documents or failure to properly complete documents may result in rejection of the offer without further evaluation. Therefore, offerors are urged to follow instructions carefully and to speak with the Contracting Officer if the offeror does not understand any part of the Solicitation.

b. DISCUSSIONS.

The Government intends to evaluate proposals and award a contract without discussions. However, the Government reserves the right to hold discussions if it determines that discussions are necessary. Therefore, proposals should be submitted on the most favorable terms that the offeror can submit to the Government.

do not include audio-visual materials, electronic media, etc.

Use only 8 ½ by 11 inch paper or A4 paper for hard copy submissions, unless another paper size is specifically authorized elsewhere in this section for a particular submission.

References to “Confidential” projects cannot be submitted to demonstrate capability unless all of the information required for evaluation as specified herein can be provided to the Government as part of the offeror’s technical proposal. Offerors that include in their proposals information they do not want disclosed to the public for any purpose, or used by the Government except for evaluation purposes, must clearly mark their proposals in accordance with the instructions at FAR 52.215-1, “Instructions to Offerors— Competitive Acquisition,” paragraph (e), “Restriction on disclosure and use of data .”

ADJECTIVE RATINGS AND DEFINITIONS TO BE USED TO BEST REFLECT

YOUR EVALUATION OF THE CONTRACTOR’S PERFORMANCE

RATING DEFINITION NOTE

(E) Exceptional

Performance meets contractual requirements and exceeds many of the requirements to the Government/Owner’s benefit. The contractual performance of the element or sub-element being assessed was accomplished with few minor problems for which corrective actions taken by the Contractor was highly effective.

An Exceptional rating is appropriate when the Contractor successfully performed multiple significant events that were of benefit to the Government/Owner. A singular benefit, however, could be of such magnitude that it alone constitutes an Exceptional rating. Also, there should have been NO significant weaknesses identified.

(VG) Very Good

Performance meets contractual requirements and exceeds some of the requirements to the Government’s/Owner’s benefit. The contractual performance of the element or sub-element being assessed was accomplished with some minor problems for which corrective actions taken by the Contractor were effective.

A Very Good rating is appropriate when the Contractor successfully performed a significant event that was a benefit to the Government/Owner.

There should have been no significant weaknesses identified.

(S) Satisfactory

Performance meets minimum contractual requirements. The contractual performance of the element or sub-element contains some minor problems for which corrective actions taken by the Contractor appear or were satisfactory.

A Satisfactory rating is appropriate when there were only minor problems, or major problems that the Contractor recovered from without impact to the contract. There should have been NO significant weaknesses identified. Per DOD policy, a fundamental principle of assigning ratings is that Contractors will not be assessed a rating lower than Satisfactory solely for not performing beyond the requirements of the contract.

(M) Marginal

Performance does not meet some contractual requirements.

The contractual performance of the element or sub-element being assessed reflects a serious problem for which the Contractor has not yet identified corrective actions. The Contractor’s proposed actions appear only marginally effective or were not fully implemented.

A Marginal is appropriate when a significant event occurred that the Contractor had trouble overcoming which impacted the Government/Owner.

(U) Unsatisfactory

Performance does not meet most contractual requirements and recovery is not likely in a timely manner. The contractual performance of the element or sub-element contains serious problem(s) for which the Contractor’s corrective actions appear or were ineffective.

An Unsatisfactory rating is appropriate when Multiple significant events occurred that the Contractor had trouble overcoming and which impacted the Government/Owner. A singular problem, however, could be of such serious magnitude that it alone constitutes an unsatisfactory rating.

(N) Not Applicable No information or did not apply to your contract Rating will be neither positive nor negative.
