- Description
- STS-2 Industry Day Briefing STS-2 Industry Day Roster Please reference the previous STS-2 postings on this site. Industry Team: Thank you for your continued interest in STS-2. The slides from Industry Day Phase 1, briefed 13 March 2013, are posted. The Government team has taken the information received from the 13-15 March 2013 Industry Day session and developed an initial strategy, under consideration, which the Government may use to meet SMC's technical A&AS mission requirements. A strategy the Government is considering is as follows: - 1 multiple award contract (MAC), indefinite delivery, indefinite quantity (IDIQ), with 4-6 winners. -- 100% Small Business (SB) set-aside, NAICS Code 541712 (1000-person standard). -- Teaming. SB prime contractor can have exclusive teaming with 1 Large Business (LB) subcontractor; SB prime contractor can cross-team with SB subcontractors, as deemed necessary. -- Contract Type for Task Orders (TOs). Firm-Fixed Price (FFP) primary, Cost Plus Fixed Fee (CPFF) and FFP Level of Effort (LOE) secondary. "Surge" flexibility: allow up to 20% more than the price of any FFP TO. -- Source Selection for IDIQ: Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA). -- Source Selection for TOs: Price Performance Trade (PPT). -- TOs written at SMC Directorate or SMC Staff Level. Flexibility to accommodate TOs written at SMC Division Level. -- Organizational Conflict of Interest (OCI) avoidance (i.e. not mitigation). The Government will have a presumption of OCI if a prime STS-2 contractor, or any subcontractor on the STS-2 prime contractor's team is a Systems Engineering and Integration (SE&I) contractor or a Prime Development Contractor (PDC) or subcontractor to a PDC for SMC. Goals: Prevent OCI issues; Reduce Government workload reviewing OCI mitigation plans. -- On-ramp. IDIQ holders can "on-ramp" new teammates, within teaming rules the Government sets forth (i.e. one exclusive LB, unlimited cross-teaming for SB). Request for Information (RFI): The Government requests responses from industry whether the strategy stated above will work, or if not, why not. To that end, the Government requests companies submit explanations not to exceed 1 total single-sided page in length. All responses must conform to 8.5x11-inch pages, with font no smaller than 12 point. If your company thinks the strategy will work, the explanation should start as follows: "The described STS-2 strategy will work." [Next, explain why the strategy will work and what role your company would likely perform in meeting SMC's technical A&AS requirements (e.g. Prime, Subcontractor teammate, etc.)] If your company thinks the strategy will NOT work, the explanation should start as follows: "The described STS-2 strategy will NOT work." [Next, explain why the strategy will NOT work, what requirements will not be met, and what components must be changed in order to meet SMC's technical A&AS requirements.] Note: For each explanation, the Government requests each company write their response from the Government's perspective in meeting its technical A&AS requirements. In addition, please point out key considerations deemed lacking or other unintended consequences that may result on account of pursuing this strategy and recommend an alternative strategy that will meet SMC's Technical A&AS requirements, if deemed warranted. Responses: Contractors who elect to respond to this RFI must send a response via email to the following three contacts no later than 2300 Pacific time, 31 March 2013 : Capt Christian Evans STS-2 Program Manager (310) 653-2490 christian.evans.3@us.af.mil Lt Col Dan McAlister Chief, New Contracts Branch (SMC/PIC) (310) 653-1333 daniel.mcalister@us.af.mil Ms. Felicia Brown Contracting Officer Phone: (310) 653-2007 felicia.brown@.us.af.mil
