- Description
- Draft Performance Work Statement (PWS) NOTICE: This is a sources sought synopsis; there is no solicitation available at this time. Requests for solicitation will receive no response. This Sources Sought Synopsis is published for market research purposes only. This market survey is conducted to identify potential sources capable of meeting the requirements for providing Subject Matter Expert (SME) support of the Comprehensive Cost and Requirement (CCaR) system for the Air Forces Central Command (AFCENT) at Shaw Air Force Base. Please review, in this order, the Sources Sought Synopsis and the Performance Work Statement (PWS) which are included to provide respondents a better understanding of the needs of Shaw Air Force Base and the respondent's potential ability to meet the Government's requirements. PROGRAM DETAILS: The requirements of this task are for the provision of CCaR application support for the unique funding, planning, reconciliation, execution and reporting requirements and interface capabilities with various Government systems and applications for activities associated with AFCENT, as well as in-depth experience and expertise to quickly and accurately respond to the wide variety of financial tasks and unique formats required for detailed financial and program related reporting. Contractor personnel must have knowledge of Air Force financial, contracting, and program management procedures, understand the Planning, Programming, Budgeting and Execution (PPBE) process, and understand the Requirements & Planning Council (R&PC) process. CCaR support must have familiarity with operating web-based database programs, as well as be proficient in all CCaR applications. The contractor shall provide functional support of the CCaR application. CCaR support provide assistance and support to CCaR Administrators, needed to carry out CCaR administrative functions and CCaR functional tasks which includes, but are not limited to, the following: set-up, configuration, daily operation and training of the CCaR application in direct support to AFCENT organizations. Business Analyst (BA) must have extensive knowledge on the functionality and operation of the CCAR System's Requirement database and shall have in depth knowledge of Government acquisition and Requirements management, System Metric and Requirements Tool (SMART), Standard Procurement Systems (SPS), DEAMS and other systems that do not directly interface with CCaR. CCaR support shall ensure that the CCaR application is properly tailored and configured to meet the unique requirements of the organization. CONTRACT DETAILS: The Air Force anticipates utilizing Firm-Fixed Price (FFP) CLINs. The Air Force anticipates awarding a base plus four (4) option years. A multi-year contract allows for reduced staff manpower to initiate and award. This also allows stability with the eventual winner, i.e. able to sign employees to longer term contracts thus generating further efficiencies and best ensuring continuity in the support provided to the Government. Upon award of the option years, the same contractor is ready and able to deliver required services on day one without the need for transition time, or downtime, which again, creates efficiencies for the Government. Information is being collected from all potential sources at this time. Firms responding to this announcement shall indicate whether they are a large business, small business, small disadvantaged business (SDB), woman-owned small business (WOSB), 8(a)-certified business, service-disabled veteran-owned small business (SDVOSB), veteran-owned small business (VOSB), or Historically Underutilized Business small business (HUBZone). The National American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code for this action is 541611, size standard $15,000,000.00. All prospective contractors must be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) database to be awarded a DoD contract. Prospective contractors are cautioned to ensure that the proper NAICS code appears in their CCR. The Air Force has not yet determined the acquisition strategy for this requirement, including whether a set-aside strategy is applicable. Note that a key factor in determining an acquisition to be a Small Business Set Aside is that small business prime contractors must perform over 50% of the effort, as defined in Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) clause 52.219-14. All interested parties shall submit a capabilities package. Interested contractors shall submit up to a maximum 8 page capabilities document. The capabilities package shall be brief and concise, yet clearly demonstrate an ability to meet the stated requirements. Provide recent, relevant experience in all areas, including whether this experience was as a prime or subprime contractor, whether it was in support of a Government or commercial contract and what the scope of the experience was. Teaming and/or subcontracting arrangements shall be clearly delineated and previous experience in teaming must be provided. Interested contractors will clearly explain how they intend to meet the stated requirements. Include the following in your statement of capabilities: Company Name; Address; Point of Contact; Telephone number; E-Mail Address; CAGE Code; Web Page URL; and Small business size certification if applicable. Please submit one (1) electronic copy of your response to 20CONS/PKAA (Shaw AFB), Ms. Laurie Harvey, laurie.harvey.1@us.af.mil no later than February 5, 2015 at 4pm Eastern Time. CONCLUSION: The Government will neither award a contract solely on the basis of this synopsis nor will it reimburse the contractor for any costs associated with preparing or submitting a response to this notice. This synopsis does not constitute a Request for Quotation, Request for Proposal (RFP) or an Invitation for Bid (IFB), nor does this issuance restrict the Government's acquisition approach. The Government reserves the right to reject in whole or part any industry input as a result of this announcement. The Government recognizes that proprietary data may be a part of this effort. If so, clearly mark such restricted or proprietary data and present it as an addendum to the non-restricted/non-proprietary information. If the Government decides to award a contract for this or related effort, a solicitation will be published and posted on the FedBizOpps website. If you have any questions, you may contact Ms. Laurie Harvey, Contracting Specialist, at Laurie.Harvey.1@us.af.mil.
