Offer Instructions:

The Government may consider offers that fail to follow instructions to be

unacceptable

and ineligible for award. In order to compete for the contract described in

this

synopsis/solicitation, a complete Technical Volume (technical elements

described below)

and Price Volume must be submitted. Incomplete submissions may not be

considered.

Offers shall:

(a) Prepare and submit one (1) Organizational Experience Matrix (RFP Attachment

3) to

explain the breadth, depth and relevance of your organizational experience

since 1 May

2011 in the following Statement of Work (SOW - RFP Attachment 1) key areas:

3.2.1,

3.2.2, 3.2.3, 3.2.4, 3.2.5 and 3.2.6. Cite at least one (1) reference from the

15 of the

Reference Information Sheet requires offerors to provide a summary description

of

contract work, not to exceed three (3) additional single-sided pages in length,

for each

cited reference. In completing these summary descriptions, offerors must

explain the

relevance of each cited reference with respect to one or more of the SOW key

areas.

The Government is not bound by an offeror's opinion of the relevance of its

organizational experience. Offerors need not address all above SOW key areas

in the

summary description of each reference; however, for evaluation purposes,

ratings may

be maximized by citing references that collectively demonstrate maximum breadth

and

depth of relevant experience in the SOW key areas.

(c) In completing the summary descriptions of contract work for Section 15 of

each

Reference Information Sheet (not to exceed three (3) additional single sided

pages per

reference), clearly format the response to separate the discussion for each key

area of

the SOW. Do not provide a consolidated response for multiple key areas of the

SOW. In

evaluating the offeror's experience in each individual key area of the SOW, the

Government will consider only the text designated in Section 15 of the

Reference

Information Sheet for that particular SOW key area.

(d) In Section 5 of each Reference Information Sheet, the contractor must state

the start

date of only the work referenced, rather than the period of performance start

date for the

referenced contract. The date in Section 5 can be no earlier than 1 May 2011.

All of the

work described in the summary description (i.e., the three (3) pages attached

to the

Reference Information Sheet) must have been performed on or after 1 May 2011.



Factor II. Technical Approach

Each offeror will provide a detailed plan and approach in performing two (2)

key areas as

detailed in the Statement of Work (SOW). Key Areas are as follows:

six (6) Courses of Instruction (COI), SOW Sections 3.2.1, 3.2.2., 3.2.3, 3.2.4,

3.2.5. and

3.2.6. The approach for each COI must also include the offeror's plan in

tailoring

concepts noted in those standards to SSC Pacific's defined project management

architecture, assets and processes (ref. b and c. of the SOW). Those COI's

requiring a

dynamic Computer Simulation (3.2.1. and 3.2.6) must incorporate a sample user

scenario in each course outline.

Evaluation Factors for Award:

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 Government anticipates

awarding a

firm-fixed-price purchase order.



Factor I. Organizational Experience

Experience is the opportunity to learn by doing. An offeror's experience is

relevant when

it has been confronted with the kinds of challenges that it will likely face

under the

contract contemplated by this RFP. This evaluation will consider the breadth,

depth and

relevance of the offeror's Organizational Experience performed since 1 May 2011

in key

areas of the SOW (specified below). Relevance may include, but is not limited

to,

similarity of work contemplated under the RFP with respect to complexity,

length of

performance, number of tasks, scope, type of work, and value.

The RFP will instruct offerors to complete a prescribed matrix, which details

experience in

key areas from the SOW, by citing not more than three references. At least one

reference

will be from the prime offeror, and no more than one per subcontractor or

consultant.

Additionally, offerors will be instructed to complete a Reference Information

Sheet for

each reference cited. Section 15 of the Reference Information Sheet requires

offerors to

provide a summary description of contract work, not to exceed three (3)

additional single

sided pages per reference. Offerors will be evaluated on the extent to which

the offeror

has demonstrated relevant experience in the following SOW key areas:

3.2.1. Project Management Foundations Course of Instruction

3.2.2. Project Controller Course of Instruction

3.2.3. Project Management Professional Certification Course of Instruction

3.2.4. Agile Project Management Course of Instruction

3.2.5. Program Management Professional Course of Instruction

3.2.6. Advanced Project Management Course of Instruction

Factor II. Technical Approach

The Government will evaluate the offeror's plan and approach in meeting the two

(2) key

areas as detailed above. The Government will evaluate the offeror's Factor II

Technical

Approach to determine the degree to which the offeror demonstrates how it will

meet or

exceed the requirements of the Statement of Work (SOW) and the solicitation. A

combined technical/risk rating will be assessed on Factor II based on the

offeror's plan

and approach in performing two (2) key areas, General Requirements and Course

of

Instruction Requirements.



Note: Any offer rated an "Unacceptable" under Factors I or II may be determined

to be

ineligible for contract award.



Factor III. Price

The offer will be evaluated based on the total firm-fixed-price. The Government

will

evaluate the total price to determine if it is fair and reasonable.



Basis For Award:

This procurement will use the Best Value Trade-off source selection

methodology.



All technical (non-price) evaluation factors are listed in descending order of

importance:

Factor I: Organizational Experience

Factor II: Technical Approach



All technical (non-price) evaluation factors, when combined, are more important

as

price.
