- Description
- This is a combined synopsis/solicitation for commercial services prepared in accordance with the format in FAR Subpart 12.6, and as supplemented with additional information included with this notice. This procurement is being made in accordance with the procedures in FAR Part 12, FAR Part 15, and FAR Part 16.5. This announcement constitutes the only solicitation; proposals are being requested and a written solicitation will not be issued. The solicitation number is HSCG23-05-R-DOT097 and it is being issued as a Request for Proposals (RFP). The solicitation document and incorporated provisions and clauses are those in effect through Federal Acquisition Circular 05-04. The NAIC code is 611699. The U.S. Coast Guard (USCG) will award a single Indefinite Quantity, Indefinite Delivery (IDIQ) type contract for Tactical Operations Training services. The period of performance shall be from date of award through 365 days thereafter, with one one-year option period, and the services will be ordered through task orders containing Firm-Fixed price (FFP) and Time-and-Materials (T&M) contract line items (CLINS). The contractor shall be required to provide services in accordance with the attached performance based Statement of Work (SOW), provided in amendment 1. The contractor shall provide the services in accordance with the above applicable terms and conditions. Inspection shall be in accordance with FAR 52.212-4 and FAR 52.212-6. Provision 52.212-1, Instructions to Offerors-Commercial, applies to this acquisition. Offerors shall read and follow the directions given in provision 52.212-1, particularly the submission of past performance information pursuant to 52.212-1(b)(10). In accordance with FAR 52.212-2, the Government will award a contract to the responsible offeror whose offer, conforming to the solicitation requirements, is most advantageous to the USCG. The USCG will evaluate offers based on: 1) Relevant Past Experience/Proposed Personnel with current expertise in military, other government law enforcement techniques and training, or Tactical USCG Units operations and training; 2) Understanding of work based on SOW; 3) Relevant Past Performance; and 4) Price. Relevant Past Experience is the most important factor and all other technical factors are of equal importance. When all things combined, all technical factors are significantly more important than price. Total contract ceiling price will be evaluated for reasonableness in accordance with FAR 15.404-1b. The total contract ceiling is derived by multiplying the maximum FFP quantities by their respective unit prices and then summing those totals along with the T&M ceiling prices. Offerors are required to submit at least 3 relevant past performance references. Current, accurate, complete information MUST be provided to contact each reference. This should include contract number, point of contact, phone number and email address for each contact. Evaluation of the option shall not obligate the Government to exercise the option. A written notice of award or acceptance of an offer, mailed or otherwise furnished to the successful offeror within the time for acceptance specified in the offer, shall result in a binding contract without further action by either party. Offerors shall include a completed copy of provision 52.212-3, Offeror Representations and Certification --Commercial Items Alt I, with their proposal.
