L.3.2.2. TAB B – Glossary of Abbreviations and Acronyms

L.3.2.3. TAB C – List of Table and Drawings and/or Cross Reference if Applicable

The offeror shall address as specifically as possible the actual methodology to be used for accomplishing the PWS tasks.

Offerors shall assume that the Government has no prior knowledge of their facilities and experience, and will base its evaluation on the information presented in the offeror's proposal.

Additionally, in the event that adequate competition is not obtained, the Contracting Officer may incorporate FAR 52.215-20 entitled, “Requirements for Cost or Pricing Data or Information Other Than Cost or Pricing Data,” into the solicitation and request a Certificate of Current Cost or Pricing Data. There are no page limitations for this volume. Proposal information included in this volume which is not directly related to Cost will be disregarded.

Extended price shall equal two decimal unit price, times the number of units.

The offer shall complete all CLINS including the total amount for each period and the total amount for total contract price. The Offeror shall include spreadsheet showing a roll up of these calculations (is CLIN, Option years and Total Contract Price).

L.3.3.3.4. Area Wage Determinations. Pursuant to the Service Contract Act of 1965, the determination by the Secretary of Labor as to the applicable minimum monetary wage and fringe benefits will be made part of any resulting contract.

This information shall include details of the methodology applicable to the offer. The data will be used by the government to better understand the pricing (see sample table below).

Past performance information described herein is required on the offeror and all major subcontractors, teaming partners, and/or joint venture partners performing work that constitutes more than 25% of the total proposed cost of the contract. This volume shall not exceed 25 pages plus five pages for each major subcontractor. Offerors shall submit all Government and/or commercial contracts for the prime offeror and each major subcontractor in performance or awarded during the past three years, from the issue date of this RFP, which are relevant to the efforts required by this solicitation. Relevant efforts are defined as services/efforts that are the same as or similar to the effort required by the RFP.

Data concerning the offeror shall be provided first, followed by each proposed major subcontractor, in alphabetical order.

This volume shall be organized into the following sections:

L.3.4.1. TAB A: Table of Contents.

L.3.4.2. TAB B: Letters. The offeror shall submit a consent letter, executed by each major subcontractor, teaming partner, and/or joint venture partner, authorizing release of adverse past performance information to the offeror so the offeror can respond to such information. For each identified effort for a commercial customer, the offeror shall also submit a client authorization letter, authorizing release to the Government of requested information on the offeror's performance. The Offeror shall also submit the written consent of its major subcontractors to allow the disclosure of its subcontractor’s past performance information to the Offeror. In addition, letters of commitment shall be included for all major subcontractors for their past performance to be considered.

L.3.4.3. TAB C: Organization Structure Change History. Many companies have acquired, been acquired by, or otherwise merged with other companies, and/or reorganized their divisions, business groups, subsidiary companies, etc. In many cases, these changes have taken place during the time of performance of relevant present or past efforts or between conclusion of recent past efforts and this source selection. As a result, it is sometimes difficult to determine what past performance is relevant to this acquisition. To facilitate this relevancy determination, include in this proposal volume a "roadmap" describing all such changes in the organization of your company. As part of this explanation, show how these changes impact the relevance of any efforts you identify for past performance evaluation/performance confidence assessment. Since the Government intends to consider present and past performance information provided by other sources as well as that provided by the offeror(s), your "roadmap" should be both specifically applicable to the efforts you identify and general enough to apply to efforts on which the Government receives information from other sources.
