- Description
- NOTICE FOR FILING AGENCY PROTESTS United States Coast Guard Ombudsman Program It is the policy of the United States Coast Guard (USCG) to issue solicitations and make contract awards in a fair and timely manner. The Ombudsman Program for Agency Protests (OPAP) was established to investigate agency protest issues and resolve them without expensive and time- consuming litigation. OPAP is an independent reviewing authority that is empowered to grant a prevailing protester essentially the same relief as the Government Accountability Office (GAO). Interested parties are encouraged to seek resolution of their concerns within the USCG as an Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) forum rather than filing a protest with the GAO or some external forum. Interested parties may seek resolution of their concerns informally or opt to file a formal agency protest with the Contracting Officer or Ombudsman. Informal Forum with the Ombudsman. Interested parties who believe a specific USCG procurement is unfair or otherwise defective should first direct their concerns to the applicable Contracting Officer. If the Contracting Officer is unable to satisfy their concerns, interested parties are encouraged to contact the U.S. Coast Guard Ombudsman for Agency Protests. Under this informal process, the agency is not required to suspend contract award performance. Use of an informal forum does not suspend any time requirement for filing a protest with the agency or other forum. In order to ensure a timely response, interested parties should provide the following information to the Ombudsman: solicitation/contract number, contracting office, Contracting Officer, and solicitation closing date (if applicable). Formal Agency Protest with the Ombudsman. Prior to submitting a formal agency protest, protesters must first use their best efforts to resolve their concerns with the Contracting Officer through open and frank discussions. If the protester�s concerns are unresolved, an Independent Review is available by the Ombudsman. The protester may file a formal agency protest either to the Contracting Officer or as an alternative to that, the Ombudsman under the OPAP program. Contract award or performance will be suspended during the protest period unless contract award or performance is justified, in writing, for urgent and compelling reasons or is determined in writing to be in the best interest of the Government. The agency�s goal is to resolve protests in less than 35 calendar days from the date of filing. Protests shall include the information set forth in FAR 33.103(d) (2). If the protester fails to submit the required information, resolution of the protest may be delayed or the protest may be dismissed. To be timely protests must be filed within the period specified in FAR 33.103(e). Formal protests filed under the OPAP program should be submitted electronically to OPAP@uscg.mil and the Contracting Officer or by hand delivery to the Contracting Officer. Election of Forum. After an interested party protests a Coast Guard procurement to the Contracting Officer or the Ombudsman, and while the protest is pending, the protester agrees not to file a protest with the GAO or other external forum. If the protest is filed with an external forum, the agency protest will be dismissed. The Ombudsman Hotline telephone number is 202.372.3695. (i) This is a combined synopsis/solicitation for commercial items prepared in accordance with the format subpart 12.6, as supplemented with additional information included in this notice.

(viii) FAR provision 52.212-1, Instructions to Offerors�Commercial applies to this acquisition.� Below is the addendum to the provision: Quote Content and Submission Instructions Cover Page The vendor shall submit a Cover Page with its quotation. The Cover Page shall include, but is not limited to: Quotation Number, Name of Quotation, Date of Quotation, Company Name, Address, Phone Number, and DUNS; and Company Contracts Manager Name, Phone Number, and Email Address. The Offeror may include an Executive Summary in this section, but it is not required. Volume I and Volume II information shall not be included in this section. Quotes shall be divided into two separate, independent volumes, and organized into the following manner: Volume I: Technical Capability Volume I shall be PDF and 12pt font size. The page length of Volume I shall be limited to 15 pages, inclusive of assumptions. Volume II: Price Volume II shall include a completed Attachment 2 � Pricing Worksheet and any alternate training categories. (ix) FAR clause 52.212-2, Evaluation�Commercial Items applies to this acquisition.� Below is the specific evaluation criteria to be included in paragraph (a) of this clause: Factor 1: Technical Capability (Volume I) - Quote shall provide sufficiently detailed information that demonstrates the Offerors� thorough understanding and ability to perform the requirements in Attachment 1 SOW Sections 2.1 through 2.6. Quotes will be evaluated on whether the proposed Technical Capability exceeds the minimum requirements, in SOW Section 2.0. Evaluations will specifically consider how well the training path aligns with Department of Defense�s Information Assurance Workforce Qualifications, commonly referred to �8570 Certifications� (DoD�s 8570, 8140), DoD Cyber Workforce Framework (DCWF), and National Initiative for Cybersecurity Education (NICE) frameworks. Offerors will be evaluated to consider dashboard platform, diversity of online training options with the appropriate levels of experience similar to the scope and complexity of the SOW, adequate staffing for content support, and ease of use for users and administrators. Failure to explain Contractor�s ability to meet all requirements may result in the Contractor�s quote not being considered. There shall be no pricing information within Volume I. The vendor shall include any assumptions with regard to its Technical Capability in this Volume. If alternate training categories are quoted, from the Government�s Attachment 2 Pricing Worksheet, provide sufficient rationale for the alternate. Factor 2: Price (Volume II) - Price shall be submitted separately from Volume I. The contract price submission (Microsoft Excel Format) shall address the requirements, as specified in Attachment 1 � Statement of Work � 2.0, to include at a minimum the following: A completed Pricing Worksheet, Attachment 2. The price quoted shall identify training categories; and The Offeror may choose to propose an alternative solution that better reflects the Offeror�s technical requirements. If an alternate solution is proposed, the rational for the alternate training categories shall be included in Volume I Technical Capability and Volume II Price. Offeror shall provide a complete and accurate price quote for the contract on a Firm Fixed Price (FFP) basis. The price quote must be filled out in Attachment 2- Pricing Worksheet. Pricing will be evaluated to determine: The Contractor�s totals from CLIN 0001 through CLIN 0046 equals the Total Evaluation Price (TEP); and Evaluation of the TEP will include various techniques and procedures in FAR 12.602 and 13.106. Failure to complete and provide the Attachment 2 Pricing Worksheet will result in a determination of non-responsiveness and your quote will not be evaluated for award. The final determination of price reasonableness is the responsibility of the Contracting Officer. The government intends to award a FFP contract without discussions. Per FAR Provision 52.212-1(g), �Contract award�, the USCG intends to award the contract resulting from this RFQ without discussions, though the USCG reserves the right to hold discussions if later determined by the Contracting Officer to be necessary. The determination to hold discussions is a unilateral right of the Contracting Officer.� Factor 3: Past Performance (include in Volume I) - The past performance submission shall include at minimum two (2) past performance narratives from projects of similar size, scope, and complexity performed. No page limit on past performance narratives and past performance narratives are not included on Volume I (Technical Capability) page count. Past performance will be rated on a Satisfactory/Unsatisfactory basis. Satisfactory under past performance means the relevant experience referenced by the Offeror and/or made available through Government utilized resources involved providing similar support services. If the Government finds negative reporting information or an assessment that does not recommend the Offeror, the Government will rate the Offeror as Unsatisfactory if the Offerors explanation in the Contract Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS) database does not adequately remedy the situation. If a record of relevant past performance is not available, the Offeror will be rated as Neutral. In determining whether past performance narrative is relevant or not relevant, consideration will be given to projects of similar complexity, scope, and type. The Government reserves the right to utilize available resources including, but not limited to the CPARS to evaluate an Offerors performance on contracts of a similar size scope and complexity within the past three (3) years. For each reference, vendor shall provide the following: Name and Address of company or agency; Points of Contact including name, telephone numbers, and email addresses; Contract type and Contract number; Contract Line Item Descriptions and/or Scope; Quantities Delivered; Contract value; and Period of Performance.
