Update #5 · Latest ·
The Section L and M updated versions were meant to be posted in Word showing track changes. The pdf version of Section M was missing 252.245-7003 Contractor Property Management System Administration from the bulleted list in Section 2.3 FACTOR 3 - COST/PRICE (Volume IV), paragraph (c) Business System. Please work from the Word track changes versions of Section L and M dated 21 June 2022.
==========================================================================
Solicitation W58RGZ-22-R-0073 “Section L Instructions to Offerors” and “Section M Evaluation Factors for Award” have been updated to clarify that: While Offerors without acceptable business systems are not precluded from submitting a proposal, business systems will be verified and evaluated and must be found acceptable in accordance with the below clause requirements prior to award to be eligible for award.
• 252.242-7006 Accounting System Administration
• 252.244-7001 Contractor Purchasing System Administration
• 252.245-7003 Contractor Property Management System Administration
In turn, two clauses: a) 252.244-7001 Contractor Purchasing System Administration and b) 252.242-7006 Accounting System Admin are being added to the RFP as they were inadvertently left out of Section I. (Note 252.245-7003 Contractor Property Management System Administration was already in the RFP.) Offerors may request USG assistance with coordinating DCMA/DCAA review of business systems as necessary.
Other than the 21 June 2022 versions of Section L, Section M as listed in Section J of the amended SF 33 Solicitation, and the addition of the two above clauses in Section I, no other documents have been updated and the proposal due date remains unchanged.
