This is a continuation of Part 1 of 2 for referenced solicitation. Combination of the 2 parts of this Broad Agency Announcement constitutes the total solicitation. There will be no formal RFP, other solicitation requests, or other information regarding these requirements. SECURITY REQUIREMENTS: All work performed under resulting contracts will be unclassified and will not require access to classified material. A determination has been made that performance under the contracts may require access to and/or generate technical data the export of which is restricted by the Arms Export Control Act (Title 22, U.S.C., Sec. 2751 et seq) or Executive Order 12470. Prior to award, the successful firm(s) will be required to provide an ''Export-Controlled DoD Technical Data Agreement'' certification number issued in accordance with DoD Directive 5230.25. This certification may be requested from the Defense Logistics Services Center, Attn: DLSC-FBA Federal Ctr, Battle Creek, MI 49017-3084, Telephone 1-800-352-3572. Participation in the programs announced in this BAA is limited to U.S. firms only. GENERAL INFORMATION: Guidance provided in this section applies to all proposals submitted under this announcement. Proposals submitted must consist of a clear statement of objectives, a technical section which should include, but not be limited to, background experience, concepts and ideas, methodology, expected contribution of the research to the Army mission, a Statement of Work (SOW) and milestones, a technical plan, a biographical section describing key personnel, a funding profile, a cost proposal, and a program management section. The cost proposal must include cost breakdown providing manhours by task, all pricing rates used, and equipment and materials listings, if applicable. Use of separate volumes for technical and cost data is acceptable but not required. Subcontractor proposals, if applicable, including pricing rate details, should be provided concurrent with the prime contractor's submission. This BAA topic will remain open until 4:15 p.m., Eastern time, December 13, 1996. Proposals submitted after the cut off date will be handled in accordance with FAR 52.215-10. A copy of this provision may be obtained from the procuring office. Awards under this announcement are anticipated to be made prior to 31 March 1997. However, unless the offeror specifies a different expiration time, proposals will be considered valid for Government acceptance through 30 September 1997. NOTE: Funds are not presently available for these acquisitions. No contract awards will be made until appropriated funds are made available from which payments for contract purposes can be made. The Government anticipates multiple awards under this announcement, though no minimum or maximum number of awards can be guaranteed. The Government reserves the right to select for award any, all, part or none of the proposals received. Further, the Government reserves the right to select for award only a portion of an offeror's proposal (i.e. certain tasks vs total program). Multiple proposals from the same offeror that address different topics, that propose different solutions under a single topic, or that address only part of the problem under a topic will be accepted and evaluated independently. It is anticipated that contracts to be awarded will be cost-plus-fixed fee completion type contracts. The anticipated period of performance and contract values are stated in the individual topic description. This announcement is an expression of interest only and does not commit the Government to pay any response preparation cost. No pre-proposal conference is to be held. Proposals must be submitted in original and four (4) copies. Proposals, excluding the cost section, shall not exceed 50 pages. Proposals should be marked with the above solicitation number and addressed to the Aviation Applied Technology Directorate, ATCOM, ATTN: AMSAT-R-TC (V. Jordan), Ft. Eustis, VA 23604-5577. In accordance with FAR 52.215-14, offerors desiring an explanation or interpretation of this solicitation must request it in writing at the above address (Datafax (757) 878-0008). Oral explanations or instructions given before the award of any contract will not be binding. Any information given to a prospective offeror concerning this solicitation which is necessary in submitting offers or the lack of which would be prejudicial to any other prospective offeror(s) will be published as an amendment to this announcement. For other contracting and technical issues contact the Contract Specialist, Vickie Jordan, (757) 878-4818. All responsible sources may submit a proposal which will be considered by this Agency. Offerors are cautioned that only Contracting Officers are legally authorized to commit the Government. (END PART 2 OF 2) See Numbered Note(s): 26. (0270)
