***UPDATED ON 22 MARCH 2019***
The SOLICITATION number has been changed from W15QKN-18-R-0219 to reflect W15QKN-19-R-0090.
To meet this requirement for FY 2020 through 2024, the United States Government intends to award up to two (2) Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) Contracts with Firm-Fixed-Price Delivery Orders. This procurement will be awarded to the Offeror (s) whose proposal(s) represent the best value to the Government using Trade-Off Processes.
A Technical Data Package (TDP) will be an attachment to the solicitation and will be marked with a "Distribution D" restrictive marking which limits distribution to Department of Defense and U.S. DoD contractors. The U.S. Government has acquired the rights to use the TDP for competitive procurements under a negotiated Special License Agreement (SLA). Therefore, this TDP is restricted to the terms of the SLA. This TDP contains technical data whose export is restricted by the Arms Export Control Act (Title 22, U.S.C., Sec 2751, et seq.) or Export Administration Act of 1979 (Title 50, U.S.C., App 2401, et seq.) as amended. Violations of these export laws are subject to severe criminal penalties. These export laws also apply to distribution of the TDP to all subcontractors at every level.
At the conclusion of the RFP process and upon notification from the U.S. Government (USG) Procuring Contracting Office (PCO), all respondent(s) in receipt of data covered under the NDA, except for an offeror that may be awarded a contract under the RFP, will be required to complete the supplied Certificate of Destruction notifying the USG that all licensed data received in response to the solicitation have been destroyed at the prime contract level and all subcontractors and vendor levels. This requirement will also apply to interested parties and their subcontractor and vendor tiers that did not submit a proposal. If an Offeror is awarded a contract under the final RFP they will be required to complete the supplied Certificate of Destruction notifying the USG that all licensed data received in response to the solicitation have been destroyed at the completion or termination of the awarded contract.
FOR PLANNING PURPOSES ONLY: If when a solicitation is released, to obtain copies of the Technical Data Package (TDP) marked Distribution D, Offerors will be required to mail/e-mail the following documents to the Point of Contact listed below: Completed and signed AMSTA-AR- Form 1350 Technical Data Request Questionnaire; Non-Disclosure and Non Use agreement (NDA), to be executed by an authorized representative of the respondent's firm; and Signed and approved DD Form 2345 Military Critical Technical Data Agreement. A copy of the company's State/Provincial Business License, Incorporation Certificate, State Tax Identification Form, or other documentation which verifies the legitimacy of the company must also accompany the DD Form 2345. Copies of the forms will be included as attachments to this synopsis for planning purposes only and should not be submitted in response to this PRE-SOLICITATION SYNOPSIS NOTICE. After the solicitation is released, and the required documents have been received and verified, the ACC-NJ will release the proprietary TDP by ground mail or electronic upload to the Safe Access File Exchange (SAFE) website (https://safe.amrdec.army.mil/safe/Welcome.aspx). Offerors will be required to send their mail account(s) charge number (UPS, FedEx, etc.) with their TDP request to expedite delivery.
This PRE-SOLICITATION SYNOPSIS NOTICE is for information and planning purposes only and does not constitute a formal Request for Proposal (RFP). Following the release of an official solicitation, responsible sources may submit a capability statement, proposal, or quotation, which will be considered by the Government. This PRE-SOLICIATION SYNOPSIS NOTICE is not to be construed as a commitment by the Government. This is not a solicitation and does not obligate the Government to issue a solicitation, nor will the Government be liable for any costs involved in submission of information in response to this notice. Release of an official solicitation is anticipated to occur on or about 22 March 2019. Interested parties are encouraged to monitor FedBizzOpps for the release of the solicitation. The points of contact for this action are: Michelle Hagen, Contract Specialist, Email: [email protected], and Anthony Aurillo, Contracting Officer, Email: [email protected].
NO TELEPHONE INQUIRIES WILL BE ACCEPTED
