- Description
- This is Amendment 0002 for a combined synopsis/solicitation for commercial items that was originally issued on 20 February 2003 and is hereby amended as follows: A. The time by which offers must be received is changed from 1:00 PM Eastern Standard Time to 2:30 PM Eastern Standard Time. (The closing date, 21APR03, is unchanged.) B. In Addendum 2 to the solicitation, Page 1 of 5 is corrected to change Item 0000 to Item 0009. C. In Addendum 4 to the solicitation, the first sentence of Paragraph A.3. is deleted and replaced by the following two sentences: Separate proposals are required for each MD/NS subsystem being proposed. Variants within each subsystem may be proposed within that subsystem proposal. Each proposal shall include five (5) copies of Volume 1 and two (2) copies of Volume 2, 3 and 4. D. In Addendum 4 to the solicitation, the second sentence of Parag raph D is deleted and replaced by the following: If the offeror is a small business, this volume shall describe the extent to which your company has identified and committed to provide for participation by small, small and disadvantaged businesses (SDB), woman owned businesses (WOB), historically black colleges and universities, or other minority institutions for the performance of this effort. The Offeror shall provide sufficient information to demonstrate that the tasks assigned the selected small and/or SDB and WOB subcontractors are meaningful in the sense that they will be performing functions important to the overall success of the program and also broaden the subcontractor's technical capability. The offeror shall describe their management approach for enhancing small, SDB and WOB subcontractor's technical capability. Of special interest is the amount and type of work to be performed by the subcontractors. The offeror shall explain the reasons for and advantages of selecting particular subcontractors. E. The solicitation states that ?Initial inspection of the required supplies shall be performed by the cognizant DCMA and/or NSWC personnel at the contractor?s/sub-contractor?s facility. Final inspection and acceptance shall be at NSWC Crane.? This statement applies to all deliveries on the future contracts including prototypes and production hardware. F. Additional details concerning the Oral Presentations/Demonstrations (as set forth in Addendum 3) are as follows: Oral Presentation/Demonstration: Formal scheduling of the Oral Presentation/Demonstration will be conducted shortly after the solicitation closes. The Government will notify each offeror of the date and time of the Oral Presentation/Demonstration at least two weeks prior to the scheduled date. The number of offeror representatives for each Oral Presentation/Demonstration shall not exceed six. In order to facilitate the source selection process, the Government intends to schedule the Oral Presentation/Demonstration by MDNS subsystem rather than by offeror. Offerors shall have up to 2 hours to present Powerpoint presentations, conduct any product demonstrations, and allow for a question and answer period. It is anticipated that it will be possible for offerors to conduct limited operational demonstrations of passive devices, visible bright lights, and Class 3A lasers. The Government is currently investigating the possibility of more detailed demonstrations at a range yet to be determined. G. The changes below have resulted in a revised Statement of Work (SOW) and Performance Specification, which are attached and available for downloading. The SOW and Performance Specification were originally published as Addendum 1, Section 2 and Addendum 1, Section 3 of the solicitation. The information shown below is only a summary of the changes made to the attached SOW and Performance Specification. STATEMENT OF WORK CHANGES: 1) Paragraph 3.2.4 Operator?s Manual: Paragraph title renamed and simplified to reference MIL-PRF-63016B(TM), which is consistent with the Performance Specification. 2) Paragraph 3.3.15 has been deleted due to redundant and incorrect information.

Additionally, a note was added which clarifies the scope of this procurement.

Additionally, the objective weight requirement was corrected in paragraph 3.3.1.3.1.1.3. 5) Pa ragraph 3.3.2.1 VBL III: The VBL brightness requirement was clarified in paragraph 3.3.2.1.1.2.3.

Additionally, the 10-30 page requirement has been removed. H. All prospective offerors are extended the opportunity to visit NSWC Crane, at their own expense, to view compatibility with other SOPMOD components as delineated in paragraph 1.2 of the MDNS Performance specification. If interested, offerors shall submit a visit request with Bobby Just at 812-854-5197 or via e-mail at just_r@crane.navy.mil by no later than Friday, April 5, 2003.
