E-MAIL: gibsonj@eglin.af.mil, gibsonj@eglin.af.mil. A -- MODIFICATION: This is an amendment to the funding profile only for PRDA No. MNK 99-0001 published in CBDNET on 12 Mar 99 and paper copy on 16 Mar 99 for Agent Defeat Warhead Demonstration program. Paragraph C (3) of the PRDA should be replaced with the following paragraph: Government Estimate and Type of Contract: The Government anticipates awarding a single cost-plus-fixed-fee (CPFF) contract for Phase I, with a CPFF option for Phase II. The total contract cost (in then -year dollars) to execute both phases, plus the additional cost (in then year dollars) of all test support (e.g., sled tests, targets, range support, etc.) provided by the Government must not exceed $7.307(Ref. Paragraph D(3) of this announcement). The offeror is expected to balance the scope of his proposed contracted effort, and the scope of his proposed Government test effort, such that the combined cost does not exceed $7.307(NOTE -- The Government anticipates that the ADWD program then-year-dollars funding profile inclusive of all funds available for both the ADWD contract and Government test effort, will be as follows: FY99 -- $0.075M, FY00 -- $1.451M, FY01 -- $2.005FY02 -- $2.080M, and FY03 -- $1.696M. However, this statement shall not be interpreted as an obligation on the part of the Government to fund the ADW program at the stated annual levels.) It is the offeror's responsibility to identify any Government owned equipment, facilities, and support required for the execution of the ADW program. Except as noted below, it is also the offeror's responsibility to generate or otherwise obtain estimates for all the associated costs incurred by the government in providing the equipment, facilities and support necessary to meet the contractor's testing requirements. The exception to this requirement is that standard inventory fuzes, standard inventory submunitions, and standard inventory empty bomb cases will be treated as cost free items if they are provided as Government Furnished Equipment (Ref. Paragraph C(4) of this PRDA). When the use of reusable Government owned targets is proposed for the testing of the ADW, the offeror's estimate of Government test costs must include the cost associated with the intermediate and final refurbishment of the target structures used. Paragraph D (3) of the PRDA should be replaced with the following paragraph: Cost Proposal: Adequate price competition is anticipated. The Volume 2 cost proposal must include as a minimum a man-hour breakdown by task, a cost element summary including labor, overhead, travel, G&A, etc. for the basic contract, Phase I, and the option for Phase II, and an expenditure schedule for the entire program. Technical and Cost Proposals submitted in response to this announcement must reflect a balance between the costs associated with the contracted ADW development effort, and the additional cost to be incurred/borne by the Government in testing the contractor's warhead. In the interest of achieving that balance, the contractor will be required to propose both the contractor's costs associated with his design, development and test/test support efforts; and the additional cost incurred by Government in accomplishing the Government conducted tests proposed by the contractor in his overall test plan (Ref. Paragraph D-(2) of this PRDA). The total combined cost to execute the contractor's proposed in-house design, development, and test effort (i.e., the cost associated with the basic contract (Phase I) and the cost for the subsequent option for Phase II), and the proposed Government conducted test effort for Phases I and II, must not exceed $7.307 A proposed ADW concept may be deemed unsatisfactory if, in the Government's opinion, the concept cannot be adequately tested within the budgetary limits of the ADW program in a manner which demonstrates achievement of program minimum objectives. The offerors cost proposal should clearly delineate and segregate the costs associated with the contracted effort from the Government test support. The proposed cost of thecontracted effort shall be presented as Volume 2-A. If the effort proposed under Phase II includes flight test hardware and flight test related activities, all such associated contractor costs shall be segregated and clearly identified in Volume 2-A. Volume 2-A shall also separately identify any costs associated with data rights. It is anticipated that a significant amount of the work performed under the ADWD contract will be classified. The offeror should therefore consider, and reflect in his proposal, the cost impact that security will have on all aspects of his proposed effort. The offeror shall use the draft ADWD SCG as the basis for determining security-related costs. Volume 2-A shall also identify the cost associated with implementing the program security requirements as derived from the ADWD SCG. The referenced security requirement costs shall be identified for each relevant sub-element of the offeror's proposed Work Breakdown Structure. (Note: There may be differences between the classification levels for material submitted in the offeror's proposal in accordance with the three interim SCG's (i.e., the "Agent Defeat Warhead Technology SCG", the "Fuzes and Fuze Components SCG", and the "Slapper Detonator SCG"), and the level of classification identified for the same material in the draft ADWD SCG. In such instances, the ADWD SCG shall still be used in determining the proposed security-related costs.) The cost of Government test support and Government furnished property (GFP), excluding any GFP that the offeror has been notified in writing by the Contracting Officer will be provide at no cost, shall be presented as Volume 2-B. All proposed costs should be presented in then-year-dollars. (Note: When requesting cost estimates for test support from Government test organizations, the offeror should clearly state that the ADWD program's Government sponsor, AFRL/MNMI, will make payment directly to the supporting Government test organization. The offeror should also ensure that the estimated Government test costs account for projected Government inflation rates over the duration of the program.). Posted 04/12/99 (W-SN318358). (0102)
