This announcement constitutes the only solicitation; proposals are being requested and a WRITTEN SOLICITATION WILL NOT BE ISSUED. Solicitation W91SMC-12-T-0012 is being issued as a Request for Proposal. This solicitation incorporates provisions and clauses for commercial items in effect through Federal Acquisition Circular 05-83 dated 02 Jul 15. This acquisition is reserved for small business concerns. The Government intends to issue a single award to one offeror. The associated North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code for this acquisition is 561621, small business size $20.5 million. Commercial Item Description: The 182 Airlift Wing Illinois Air National Guard is soliciting non-personal services for an Intrusion Detection System (IDS) Technology Refresh. The contractor is to provide all management, tools, equipment, materials, supplies, transportation, labor, and supervision necessary to accomplish the work in accordance with the Performance Work Statement (PWS) dated 25 Jun 15. This solicitation is "SUBJECT TO FUNDS AVAILABILITY" meaning funds are not currently available to award this project. However, if funds become available prior to 11:00PM (CST) on 30 Sep 15, the Government intends to award a single Firm Fixed Price contract to the offeror who offers the best value to the Government. Best value considerations will be based on Performance Price Tradeoff (PPT) procedures. The Government will evaluate all submitted responses in accordance with the submissions and evaluation criteria described herein as part of a Combined Synopsis/Solicitation Process. The purpose of this description is to establish a uniform submission and evaluation procedure for the technical evaluation of responses by the Government and the development of a Best Value Decision. In as much, the submittal shall describe the capability of the Offeror to perform the requirements and be specific and complete. The proposal should be prepared simply and economically, providing a straightforward and concise description of capabilities to satisfactorily perform all requirements. The proposal should be practical, legible, clear, and coherent. The Contracting Officer will award a contract to the responsible Offeror whose submittals conforms to the solicitation/synopsis and offers the best overall value to the Government, considering all factors described herein. The Government will not award a contract to an Offeror whose submittal does not adhere to submission requirements. FACTOR 1: BUSINESS TYPE/CLASSIFICATION & FIRM INFORMATION. GENERAL: It is the objective of this solicitation/synopsis to give priority consideration to those firms who are classified as (1) Small Business per SBA identifications and meet the qualifications as established by the Small Business Administration. All Offeror's shall provide a narrative detailing their small business status as well as the firm's information as requested in this solicitation/synopsis. Firms shall detail their level of self-performance for the required work and the level of all sub-contractors. Joint Venture partners should each demonstrate experience commensurate with their roles and explain in the subject narrative how their experience qualifies them for their role for this contract. The narrative shall also include the role and participation of each partner. SUBMISSION AND EVALUATION REQUIREMENTS: The Government will evaluate the Offeror's narrative on the requirements as described herein. The Business Type/Classification & Firm information narrative shall describe the Offeror's status as a small business, large business, joint venture, etc. The narrative shall list the System for Award Management (SAM) registration status (with current date or expiration), DUNS number and Cage Code as well as the NAICS codes as applicable. (A copy of the SAM page can be included as an attachment to this Factor for expedient review but is not required and if included, will not count as to the total page count for this factor.) If the Offeror identifies themselves as a small business, the classification shall be as defined by the SBA - that is, Women Owned, 8a, Service Disabled, etc. The narrative shall include all information relevant to the firm as to address and primary office location, address of secondary or sub-contractor offices, telephone numbers, size, required certifications for applicable trades, and any other pertinent information directly related to the nature of the firm being submitted - that is, management-oversight, self-performing, etc. More consideration will be given to those Offeror's who are self performing - that is, the primary business function of the firm is relevant to the PWS of this solicitation/synopsis. Each firm submitting will be evaluated on a Go/No-Go basis for meeting SBA classification status. Priority consideration will be given to those firms who are classified as Small Business and meet the qualifications as established by the Small Business Administration. Any business not identified by classification in the submittal or identified as a Large Business will receive a No-Go determination. FACTOR 2: TECHNICAL CAPABILITIES. SUBMISSION AND EVALUATION REQUIREMENTS: The Government will evaluate the Offeror's narrative on proposed capabilities in terms of Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) and the Offeror's approach to meeting requirements as described in the PWS. Discuss, by trades, the approach required for all requirements of work, demonstrating the Offeror's understanding of the PWS. Discussions shall also address the firm's capability to respond and perform IDS maintenance functions, as applicable. Greater consideration will be given to those Offerors who, as a function of their firm, primarily perform the type of work requirements as described in the PWS for the type of contract being solicited. For example, a solicitation/synopsis for an IDS would be directed to firms who do IDS work as a primary function of their business or IDS service is one of several major operations within the firm. A firm operating as a management oversight or pass thru type operation is less favorable for the intended contract. Additionally, the IDS system must be USAF-approved and NGB/A7S approved for integration into the NGB Consolidated Maintenance Program. The Government will evaluate the capabilities submitted to ensure the Offeror has considered all requirements as listed in the PWS, to include response times and primary trade functions of the proposed firm. All employees that will be directly on the system to be installed/refreshed shall be certified and have no less than 5 years of experience on the type of system being installed/refreshed. Contractors shall provide proof of certification and experience for anyone that will be working on the system to be installed/refreshed at the 182AW. The Government will give greater consideration on work performed as a primary or self-performing contractor than as a management or oversight firm with respect to the type of contract being solicited. The order of precedence for consideration is as follows: (1) firm has a primary function as self-performing in the functions of the PWS; rated as highly acceptable; (2) firm performs at least 80% work of the PWS and subcontracts the rest to one specific firm in performance of the PWS; rated as acceptable; (3) firm is a multi-functional firm that performs at least 50% of the work and oversees other contractors in performance of the PWS; rated as marginal; (4) firm operates completely as a pass-thru or management over-sight firm; rated unacceptable - and as such the entire submittal will be rejected as unacceptable. FACTOR 3: PAST PERFORMANCE/SPECIALIZED EXPERIENCE. SUBMISSION AND EVALUATION REQUIREMENTS: Offerors shall be evaluated on their recent, relevant experience with experience similar in size, scope and complexity to the scope of work for this solicitation. Past performance refers to the extent and quality of recent, relevant experience, from a subjective perspective. Offerors shall be evaluated on similar type services and/or work completed or in progress in the last five years that are same and/or similar in nature to the contract requirements being solicited. Offerors shall provide their team's recent, relevant experience with work similar in size, scope and complexity to the requirements in the PWS. Each firm will be rated on its own performance; a firm may not solely establish past performance based on the past performance of a proposed subcontractor or firm, apart from that of the firm if the firm was acting in an oversight management type function. The Offeror's past performance will be evaluated to determine technical capability to perform the proposed services described in the PWS. The information presented in the Offeror's submittal, together with that from other sources available to the Government (such as CPARS) will comprise the input for evaluation of this factor. The Offeror shall provide project information on at least three (3) but no more than five (5) completed or current in-progress service type examples (preferably contract of other IDS service contracts) within the last five (5) years that best represent their experience relevant to the PWS for this solicitation. As a minimum, provide the data as specified in the Past Performance Information (PPI) format shown in the following paragraph as part of the narrative submittal. This is a predominate method of evaluating past performance along with any accompanying narrative for that particular example. COMPANY PAST PERFORMANCE INFORMATION (PPI) NARRATIVE IDS SERVICES 182 AIRLIFT WING, PEORIA, IL Use this suggested format as a guide per each example submitted. (This information along with the Supplemental Narrative shall be a maximum of two (2) pages.) Firm's Name Accomplishing Work: Type of Work: Location of Work: General Scope of Work: Role (Prime, Joint Venture, Subcontractor, etc.) and Work Your Company Self -Performed (with % performed): Describe Relevancy to this Requirement: Cost (Dollar Value of Effort): Contracting Officer and/or Owner's Point of Contact for Reference: Name: Company: Telephone: The Government will evaluate the Offeror's past performance to determine how relevant it is to the intended services being solicited. Work will be considered relevant to this effort if they are similar in complexity, type, scope, and/or magnitude. More relevant past performance will typically be a stronger predictor of future success and have more influence on the past performance assessment than past performance of lesser relevance. Relevant qualifiers include past governmental service agreements or contracts and experience in line with PWS description. The order of precedence for consideration is as follows: (1) PPI and supplemental narrative with three (3) - five (5) relevant examples to the PWS; rated as highly acceptable; (2) PPI only with three (3) - five (5) relevant examples to the PWS; rated as acceptable; (3) narrative only; rated as marginal; (4) no minimum examples or non-relevant experience will be rated as unacceptable and as such the entire submittal will be rejected as unacceptable. Government type service past performance will be given greater consideration than non-Federal Government past performance. Recent and relevant work will be given greater consideration than other experience. The Government will consider previous experience at the installation for these services will cover value added strength.
