Update #3 · Latest ·

This notice is directed to Missile Defense Agency (MDA) incumbent small business concerns who are currently performing advisory and assistance services (A&AS) for the agency. This notice meets the requirement of FAR 10.001(c)(2) and no other notification will be sent to affected contractors. MDA has previously published this acquisition strategy and discussed it during the industry days.



The Missile Defense Agency intends to consolidate and bundle existing legacy efforts, to include contracts and other government agency transactions for Advisory and Assistance Services (A&AS), and transfer the work to a single program office within Missile Defense Agency (MDA), for requirements management and execution. The agency is converting the A&AS work from a project oriented level of effort construct under multiple organizations to a ballistic missile defense system (BMDS) functionally aligned A&AS workforce approach. The A&AS effort has been aligned into six capability groups: 1) Quality, Safety, and Mission Assurance Support, 2) Acquisition Support, 3) Engineering Support, 4) Infrastructure and Deployment Support, 5) Agency Operations Support, and 6) Security and Intelligence Support. The work will be solicited under two separate Requests for Proposal (RFPs), one unrestricted, on a full and open competition basis, (HQ0147-09-R-0002) and one, as a small business set aside (HQ0147-09-R-0001). It is anticipated that multiple ID/IQ contracts will be awarded and awards will be made at the capability group level for the specific work contained in each RFP.



The Small Business Administration (SBA) representative for this action is as follows:

Update #2 ·

The purpose of this announcement is to 1) provide a status update on the Missile Defense Agency Engineering and Support Services (MiDAESS) acquisition, and 2) provide a proposed RFP Section H clause for Limitations on Subcontracting (applicable to RFP HQ0147-09-R-0001).



The government is preparing responses to numerous questions submitted after release of the draft RFPs and subsequent Industry Days in February 2009. Responses are projected for release during April 2009. The government is processing approximately 170 letters resulting from the formal Organizational Conflicts of Interest (OCI) meetings. The Agency has released 50 letters and others will be released during the next few weeks, as industry partners submit their additional data to complete the reviews. It is anticipated the MDA will complete all OCI assessments and release the letters during April 2009. The final RFPs are projected to be released during May 2009.



As a result of numerous questions relative to the small business set aside draft RFP (HQ0147-09-R-0001) and the application of Limitations on Subcontracting (referred to as the 50% rule), the clause below will be included in Section H of the RFP and resultant contracts. This clause is provided for your information.



**********************************************************



H-__ Compliance with FAR 52.219-14, Limitations on Subcontracting (referred to as the 50% rule).



a. The period of time used to determine compliance with FAR 52.219-14, Limitations on Subcontracting, will be the base contract period, including all task orders issued under the contract. Small business contractors do not have to comply with the 50% rule on each task order.



b. In accordance with 13 CFR Section 125.6(i), if the contractor is a joint venture and meets the following requirements, compliance with the 50% rule will apply to the cooperative effort of the joint venture, not its individual members:



1. The joint venture contractor is exempt from affiliation under 13 CFR Section 121.103(h)(3); and,



2. The joint venture contractor qualifies as a small business concern.



c. Pursuant to 13 CFR Section 121.103(h), a joint venture may or may not be in the form of a separate legal entity.



END OF CLAUSE
