GSA's GWACs provide the federal government access to a wide range of information technology (IT) services-based solutions worldwide. Alliant 2 SB is one of two similar proposed GWACS under GSA's Alliant 2 GWAC Program. The second proposed GWAC is the unrestricted procurement, Alliant 2, which will be conducted under full and open competition. The Alliant 2 GWAC 2 nd draft RFP was posted to FedBizOpps on October 15, 2015 and is available at https://www.fbo.gov/notices/2acc640ad70d34c3f38493f09e286305. The business size standard for the Alliant 2 SB GWAC will be established using the SBA size standards for NAICS 541512, Computer Systems Design Services. The current size standard for NAICS 541512 is $27.5M. REQUEST FOR INFORMATION (RFI) RFI # 7 - This DRFP provides interested parties, including government agency end-users, an opportunity to submit feedback to the GSA GWAC acquisition team regarding the DRFP. Specific instructions on submitting feedback for consideration are included in the attachment named "A2SB Draft RFP Response Template". Additionally, the GSA GWAC Program is seeking feedback for improvements to the GWAC Program and/or Contract Administration of the Master Contract, including the creation and execution of objective performance metrics. The following topics are specific areas where GSA is requesting comments: · Refreshment of new IT Labor Categories & Standard Occupational Classification to the GSA GWACs · Incorporating "required" DoD clauses under the GSA GWACs · Cyber-Security contract language flow down to GSA GWAC Task Orders · Application of the requirements contract type (FAR 16.503) into Task Orders competed under the fair opportunity to be considered standards (FAR 16.505) · GSA GWAC-specific Transactional Data reporting · Implementation of an Open Season · Efficient and speedy Master Contract/Task Order closeout Comments on outdated or obsolete FAR clauses/provisions are not needed. The final RFP will contain then current clauses/provisions. This DRFP is not a solicitation for Government services. No awards will be made from this DRFP. Responding with comments or questions to this DRFP is voluntary. The associated documents are being posted for market research purposes. Feedback to this DRFP should be submitted to A2SB@gsa.gov using the provided response template no later than close of business November 30, 2015. All input from interested parties is reviewed and considered by the acquisition team for final development of the official RFP. Questions submitted will not be individually answered during this pre-solicitation procurement phase. Additionally, there will be no further industry days presented or face-to-face/one-on-one meetings offered at this stage of the procurement. GSA also recommends interested parties join the Alliant 2/Alliant 2 Small Business GWAC Community on GSA Interact at: https://interact.gsa.gov/group/alliant-2-a2-and-alliant-2-small-business-a2sb-gwacs. Additional information regarding updates on the acquisition schedule may be shared by the Government through this GSA Interact page up until release of the official RFP, expected in spring 2016. NOTE: The GSA Alliant 2 SB GWAC Procuring Contracting Officer (PCO) recommends that potential offerors DO NOT significantly invest their company resources, specifically "Bid and Proposal (B&P) Dollars," into developing proposals in response to this DRFP because (1) that is not the purpose of a DRFP, and (2) changes to this DRFP are highly probable before the official RFP is released.
