- Map to Green Flag Auditorium at Nellis AFB ***This requirement is redirected from the Sources Sought Synopsis posted under FA8240-13-R-7010. Notice FA8240-13-R-7010 will be archived and all further information pertaining to the RSS II contract will be posted under FA8240-15-R-3102. The information provided herein replaces and superceeds information previously posted under FA8240-13-R-7010.*** General Information This Request for Information is to encourage early industry involvement for the Range Support Services (RSS) II contract. This is for informational purposes only and information contained herein may change as the strategy is finalized. Services are to be performed at the Nevada Test and Training Range (NTTR). Contract award is anticipated by June 2017 with a contract transition start date of 01 July 2017. The Government is anticipating release of the RSS II Request for Proposal (RFP) Fall of 2015. This will be a full and open, two (2) phase source selection, utilizing Best Value Trade-off source selection procedures in accordance with FAR Part 15. The Government is encouraging teaming arrangements from offerors. Only the three (3) most highly evaluated offeror teams will be provided the RFP in Phase 2. Based upon previous industry feedback, each offeror team will be provided no more than twenty (20) program briefed personnel positions for proposal development in Phase 2. The estimated value of this acquisition is $3.6B. The Government anticipates a single award of a Requirements contract. (While the Government will abide by the intent of the Requirements contract wherein the contractor will receive the preponderance of the work identified in the PWS, the Government will reserve the right to meet mission needs, a large in-flux of customer requirements due to DoD shifting priorities, or work that falls under a governance structure, such as construction, through other means of support (e.g. government or through other contracts).) The resulting contract will have a potential 16-year period of performance (including options and award terms) plus be a 3-month transition period beginning on 01 July 2017. The pricing arrangements will be Firm Fixed Price (FFP ) (transition in), Cost Plus Award Fee (CPAF ) (range support services - organic labor (e.g. prime plus teaming partners)), and Cost Reimbursable (CR)(travel, material, non-organic labor sub-contracts, and other direct costs). This requirement will contain a small business subcontracting goal of greater than or equal to 25% of total contract dollars. Offeror teams responding to this requirement must meet the following criteria. The Government will not entertain any offers that do not meet the following requirements: 1. Offeror teams may not have any foreign ownership, control, or influence. 2. Offeror teams must meet all requirements of the attached DD Form 254 (e.g. offeror teams must have Special Access Program Facility (SAPF ). 3. Offeror teams must have a proposal team that has TS/SSBI clearances and is program briefable on Day 1 of Phase 2. (Note: See the attached security questionnaire required from every member of the proposal team. Any "yes" answers on the questionnaire is likely to result in an individual not being briefable due to time to adjudicate.) 4. Proposals will only be accepted from offeror teams that have experience in all functional areas of the Performance Work Statement (PWS ). 5. The Government will perform a responsibility determination in accordance with FAR Part 9.104 on the prime offeror and team-members in both Phase 1 and 2 of the RFP. The Government will not evaluate a proposal from any offeror team member that is found to be non-responsible. Non-responsible offeror teams shall not be considered for award. The Government will not delay the issuance of the proposal submission due to changes in the offeror team's personnel security or facility status. Failure to meet and retain these requirements may result in an offer team's disqualification from the competition and from further consideration. An offeror team's engagement with the program security office, for the purspoes of meeting DD Form 254 requirements (e.g. establishment of a SAPF facility or program access), shall not constitute discussions. Source Selection Evaluation Criteria Phase 1 will consist of an offeror self-scoring scorecard, utilizing a pre-determined set of criteria and associated values. The offeror team is required to provide evidence to support the assertions in the scorecard. The Government will validate the information provided and calculate the offeror team's overall score. Past performance (recency and relevancy) of the offeror team will be included in the Phase 1 criteria. The Government will select the three (3) most highly evaluated offeror teams to proceed to Phase 2 of the RFP - receipt of the solicitation. Phase 2 will be a trade-off consisting of the following factors and sub-factors, in descending order of importance: Factor 1: Technical Approach/Risk Sub-factor 1: Program Management Sub-factor 2: Compensation, Recruitment and Retention Sub-factor 3: Technical Approach Factor 2: Cost/Price The Technical Approach/Risk sub-factors are individually significantly more important than Cost/Price. Tentative Acquisition Schedule Release of draft RFP - Late June 2015 Industry Day/range tour (with one-on-one sessions) - 13-16 July 2015 Release of RFP - Phase 1- November 2015 Submission of Phase 1 scorecards - December 2015 Release of RFP - Phase 2 - March 2016 Submission of Phase 2 proposals - May 2016 Industry Day The Government will hold an Industry Day 13-16 July 2015. This will consist of a general briefing of the RSS II requirements and anticipated acquisition strategy at 1400 on 13 July 2015. There will be one-on-one sessions provided to interested offeror teams on 16 July 2015. A range tour will be provided 14-15 July 2015 (this will include an overnight stay the night of the 14th in Tonapah). The general and one-on-one sessions will be held at Nellis AFB, NV. No more than five (5) individuals from each offeror team will be allowed at the general and one-on-one session. No more than two (2) individuals per offeror team will be allowed for the range tour. Offeror teams shall submit their interest in participation to Mary Shinney at mary.shinney@us.af.mil no later than 10 June 2015 and include a list of participants. Individuals attending the conference and/or range tour must complete the attached Criminal History Release Form, to be processed through National Criminal Investigative Check (NCIC ), and remit to Capt Chris Rasor at christopher.rasor.1@us.af.mil no later than 10 June 2015. Electronic equipment (e.g. cell phones, lap tops, tablets, etc.) will not be permitted on the range tour. There is limited space available at the venues. This event is being provided for offeror teams that are interested in priming on this acquisition and is not an opportunity to network for teaming and/or consulting purposes. If you do not have a means to access Nellis AFB (e.g. retired military ID card), you will have to enter the base by way of the main gate visitor center (on Fitzgerald Blvd at Craig Rd and Las Vegas Blvd). The visitor center will issue you a Defense Biometric Identification System (DBIDS) bar coded paper pass that will allow you to access Nellis AFB during the four days that you require access. Attached is a map of Nellis AFB with directions from the main gate to the Green Flag Auditorium parking area. If you have trouble accessing Nellis AFB, please call 702-653-4888 (Maj Stallings-Lilly) or 702-653-4504 (Mr. Jaime Matheus). NOTE: Attendees that do not currently have access to Nellis AFB will also need to submit a Criminal History Release Form in order to gain base access. Questions for Industry 1. The Government has posted a draft version Sections L & M and Phase 1 - Scorecard to FBO. Please provide comments, feedback, questions, concerns, and ideas for improvement to the Contracting Officer. 2. Is there value in having ISO certifications as a pass/fail criteria for the Phase 1 - Scorecard? Response to these questions is requested by 07 July 2015.
