- Poland Aegis Ashore Engineering Agent (AAEA) Question & Answer Matrix Poland Aegis Ashore Engineering Agent (AAEA) Solicitation POLAND AEGIS ASHORE ENGINEERING AGENT OFFICIAL SOLICITATION ISSUANCE The Poland Aegis Ashore Engineering Agent solicitation is hereby issued. With the exception of the documents posted to this website, unclassified solicitation documents are posted on the technical library (VIEWNet). Unclassified solicitation documents are available upon request to the Department of Defense (DoD) and U.S. DoD Contractors only. Interested qualified sources shall submit a written request to access the documents to AAPolandCompetition@mda.mil. Offerors must be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) Database prior to submission of a capability statement package in order to receive consideration. This may be accomplished electronically at http://www.sam.gov/vendor.cfm. This program includes technical information that has been designated as Distribution D and is only releasable to current and approved DoD contractors. The program requires a procurement effort in certain critical technologies or data that are not releasable to foreign firms. Some documents are under Federal export control for sensitive or controlled technologies regulated by the U.S. Department of State International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR) protecting national security. Data may not be exported without an approval, authorization, or license under Executive Order 12470 or the Arms Export Control Act. Disclosure of the control drawings requires the verification of a current license for the oral, visual or documentary disclosure of technical data by U.S. persons to foreign persons as defined under the U.S. Department website: http://pmdtc.org/licenses.htm. Please include a certified copy of DD Form 2345, Militarily Critical Technical Data Agreement. For DD Form 2345 information, call Defense Logistics Information Service in Battle Creek, MI at 800-352-3572 or visit the website at: http://www.dlis.dla.mil/jcp. Any use of the information in support of Direct Commercial Sales efforts is strictly prohibited. Prior to release of any controlled documents under this solicitation, any U.S. contractor must acknowledge its responsibilities under U.S. export control laws and regulations (including the obligation, under certain circumstances, to obtain an export license prior to the release of technical data within or outside the United States) and agree that it will not disseminate any export-controlled technical data subject to this requirement in a manner that would violate applicable export control laws and regulations. This agreement shall be documented in a certified DD Form 2345. Upon review of your written request with the information provided below, verification of your status and acknowledgement of the contractor's responsibility under the U.S. Export laws and regulations, access to the requested documents will be provided. •· - Company name •· - Mailing address •· - Email address •· - Point of contact •· - Phone number •· - Current cage number •· - Verification of registration in SAM - Certified copy of the DD Form 2345 Approved contractors will receive instructions on how to register for and access the technical documents via the web-based SharePoint site, VIEWNet, which serves as the Poland Aegis Ashore technical library. DoD Information Assurance (IA) policies today result in very restrictive access to DoD resources using firewalls to exclude most external Internet Protocol (IP) addresses. Companies that have never accessed Naval Surface Warfare Center - Dahlgren Division (NSWCDD)-hosted IT resources (such as VIEWNet) will likely not have their IP addresses included in the allowed list. If that is the case, they will not be able to access the registration application site for VIEWNet and will instead encounter an error message. Approved potential offerors who are unable to access the site and have submitted all of the required documentation outlined above will be provided contact information for the VIEWNet helpdesk in order to facilitate access. Potential offerors must be able to provide their IP addresses if they have never accessed NSWCDD-hosted IT resources in the past. Please be advised that this process can take up to two weeks upon receipt of IP address information. Contractors also must have a Common Access Card (CAC), VeriSign Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) certificate, or Operational Research Consultants (ORC) External Certification Authority (ECA) PKI certificate in order to obtain access to VIEWNet. For contractors that do not possess a CAC, the DoD has established the ECA program to support the issuance of DoD-approved certificates to industry partners and other external entities and organizations. The ECA program is designed to provide a mechanism for these entities to securely communicate with the DoD and authenticate to DoD Information Systems. Please visit http://iase.disa.mil/pki/eca/certificate.html to obtain more information about how to obtain an ECA certificate from one of the three approved vendors. Additional guidance and instructions governing the handling and submission of For Official Use Only (FOUO)/Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) will be provided in the form of the FOUO/CUI Supplement which will be made available on VIEWNet. Offerors are advised that Joint Certification Program (JCP) certification and VIEWNet access processes can take several weeks to be completed. Offerors are encouraged to initiate certification applications and access requests early as the proposal due date will not be extended to accommodate offerors who have not completed these processes. Proposals are due no later than 12:00pm EDT on November 17, 2015 at the address identified in Section L of the solicitation. All hand carried proposals shall be coordinated in advance in accordance with Section L of the solicitation. Unclassified comments or questions regarding this solicitation shall be submitted in writing via e-mail to AAPolandCompetition@mda.mil utilizing the Poland Aegis Ashore Engineering Agent Request for Proposal (RFP) Question/Answer Matrix included in this posting.
