FOR A COPY OF THE STATEMENT OF WORK, SUBMIT A REQUEST TO THE CONTRACTING OFFICER VIA EMAIL kisha.emmanuel@gsa.gov. The due date for submittal of the Technical and Price Proposals will be 1 PM, EDT, July 22, 2005, to the Contracting Officer via email at kisha.emmanuel@gsa.gov using Microsoft Word or PDF attachments. The Technical Proposal shall not exceed fifteen (15) pages in length, exclusive of the resumes, but inclusive of all other addendums, attachments, exhibits, etc. Resumes shall be a maximum of three pages each. As Technical Proposals are reviewed, evaluated and rank-ordered prior to reviewing Price Proposals, all technical information shall be in the Technical Proposal to be considered. The Technical Proposal shall include: The Technical Proposal shall include: • Key Personnel Resumes • Technical Approach • Organizational Experience & Past Performance 1. Key Personnel (maximum 3 pages per resume, no limit on the total number of resumes) Provide a description of the experience, skills and capabilities of each of the key personnel on your proposed project team. Descriptions shall include the quality and depth of experience of proposed personnel in working on similar projects in terms of background, education, work experience, and accomplishments. Descriptions shall demonstrate the knowledge that key personnel have gained through completed and ongoing efforts on similar projects. "Similar projects" is meant to convey similarity in subject matter, dollar value, duration, and complexity. 2. Technical Approach A technical approach is required from each Offeror. The approach shall be simple, easy to read, and shall clearly and concisely describe project responsibilities and personnel, any proposed subcontracting or teaming arrangements, communication and coordination, scheduling of all tasks and subtasks, meetings, and deliverables. All staff needed to conduct the work and produce all required products and deliverables must be identified. In meeting deliverables, Offerors shall elaborate on how they plan to measure their efforts to ensure the highest quality of performance. 3. Organizational Experience & Past Performance Describe the experience and capability of your organization and key personnel in conducting similar work. Again, “similar" is meant to convey similarity in subject matter, dollar value, duration, and complexity. Provide a summary of at least three (3) similar contracts performed by your organization for the last three years. Include a brief description of the project, project title, contract number, period of performance, contract amount, client identification including agency or company name, and point-of-contact with e-mail and telephone number. Contact information must be current. This shall be no longer than one page. FORMAT FOR PRICE PROPOSAL The price proposal shall be a separate attachment in Microsoft Word, Excel or a PDF attachment, submitted at the same time as the technical proposal. There is no page limit on the price proposal. EVALUATION OF PROPOSALS Each Offeror’s proposal shall be evaluated according to the factors shown below. The factors are roughly equal to each other. FACTOR A: Key Personnel • Availability and qualifications of the proposed staff, their experience in similar projects and their capability to fully and professionally accomplish the objectives stated herein; • Ability to communicate both orally and in writing with both technical staff and senior management. • Consideration of the required knowledge, skills and abilities as specified in the SOW. FACTOR B: Technical Approach • Understanding of the work, including creativity, thoroughness and innovation shown in planned execution of the requirements in the SOW; • Discussion of specific methods and techniques for completing each discrete task; • Anticipation of potential problem areas, and creativity and feasibility of solutions to problems; and • Discussion of schedule and any other issues about which the Government should be aware. FACTOR C: Organizational Experience • The degree of comparability of past projects to the current project, including number of projects, complexity, and dollar amount. • Supporting subcontractors, consultants and partners will be considered. FACTOR D: Past Performance • The history of successful completion of similar projects (as listed above), of producing high-quality work and other deliverables, of staying on schedule and within budget; of anticipating and solving problems that occurred during contract performance. CONTRACT AWARD: Contract award shall be made to the responsible Offeror whose offer, in conforming to this RFQ, provides an overall best value to the Government, technical evaluation factors, and cost considered. The Government's objective is to obtain the highest technical quality considered necessary to achieve the project objectives, with a realistic and reasonable cost. Technical evaluation factors are more important than cost; however, between proposals that are evaluated as technically equal in quality, cost will become a major consideration in selecting the successful Offeror.

ALL QUESTIONS MUST BE SUBMITTED IN WRITING AND NO QUESTIONS WILL BE ACCEPTED BY TELEPHONE. The Government reserves the right to edit any questions as needed to protect the identity of the source, but absent this consideration, the Government intends to quote each submitted question verbatim in its response.
