This acquisition is a 100 percent set-aside for Historically Black
Colleges and Universities (HBCUs)/Minority Institutions (MIs) as
defined in DoD FAR Supplement (DFARS) 226.7003. Offers from other than
HBCUs/ MIs are not solicited. Clauses 252.226-7000 and 252.226-7001
apply. The offeror must represent and certify, as part of its offer,
that it is a Historically Black College or University or a Minority
Institution as shown in DFARS provision 252.226-7001. A HBCU/MI
submitting an offer on its own name shall agree that at least 50
percent of the cost of the contract performance incurred for personnel
shall be expended for employees of the HBCU/MI. (b) Public Law 98-94
may be applicable to this program. Offerors must submit a DD Form 2345,
Export Controlled DoD Technical Data Agreement, to the Commander,
Defense Logistics Service Center, ATTN: DLSC-FBA, Federal Center,
Battle Creek, MI 49117-3084, 1-800-352-3572, for certification. The
offeror is required to submit a copy of the approved DD Form 2345,
including the required certification acceptance, to the Buyer with each
proposal. Failure to submit this certification shall result in
non-consideration for award if it is determined to apply to the
proposed effort. Certification is required before contract award.
Offerors shall certify in their proposal that they will comply with all
provisions of this law. (c) International Trade in Arms Restrictions
may apply. (d) Proposals shall be valid for a period of not less than

Reimbursement - No Fee utilizing the ''Short Form Research Contract.''
(c) FAR clause 52.216-7 will be utilized in lieu of Advance Payments.
(d) Government-Furnished Property (GFP)/Contractor Acquired Property
(CAP) are not generally contemplated for this effort. If your proposal
incorporates requirements for materials, special test equipment,
special tooling, and/or agency peculiar property, strong justification
must be included which supports why it is in the government's best
interest to provide each of these proposed property items. Also, each
proposed property item must reflect the applicable type of property
category among the four acceptable categories shown above and how it
meets the FAR definition in FAR 45.101/45.301 for each category.
Proposals should reflect the policy that contractors are required to
furnish all property to perform government contracts since approval for
facilities (neither CAP nor GFP) is not contemplated, i.e., contractors
should not propose any property/equipment items which are not
materials, special test equipment, special tooling, and/or agency
peculiar property. (e) Individual contract awards are anticipated (but
not limited) to reflect the amounts shown for each requirement as
specified in each area subparagraph of the ''Requirements'' section
above. For example, a funding amount of $20K annually is expected to be
available for the total PL/LI requirement. However, as noted above,
PL's funding situation is not stable, and any awards may be
significantly below or above the anticipated funding. (f) Proposed
periods of performance should reflect the funding constraints
identified for the applicable area(s) unless the applicable technical
point of contact agrees that the funding situation would allow for a
different approach. 6. PROPOSAL PREPARATION INSTRUCTIONS: Offerors
should apply the restrictive notice prescribed in the provision at FAR
52.215-12, Restriction on Disclosure and Use of Data, to trade secrets
or privileged commercial and financial information contained in their
proposals. Additional proposal questions should be directed to one of
the points of contact listed elsewhere herein. A technical and cost
proposal, submitted in separate volumes, is required. Proposals shall
reference the above BAA number, shall identify the applicable PL
Directorates and shall identify the subject area of the proposal. A
HBCU/MI may submit more than one proposal. All HBCUs/MIs may submit
proposals which shall be considered against the criteria set forth
herein. OFFERORS ARE ADVISED THAT ONLY CONTRACTING OFFICERS ARE LEGALLY
AUTHORIZED To CONTRACTUALLY BIND OR OTHERWISE COMMIT THE GOVERNMENT.
(b) Cost Proposal: The cost proposal/price breakdown shall be prepared
in accordance with FAR 15.804-6 and shall be on an Standard Form (SF)
1411 or in a format which includes the same information needed to
complete an SF 1411, together with supporting schedules and person-hour
breakdown per task. (0130) Loren Data Corp. http://www.ld.com (SYN# 0002 19950511\A-0002.SOL)
