Solicitation: W911YP23R0003 Agency/Office: Utah Army National Guard / USPFO Place of Performance: Utah Army National Guard / 97th TC/HRF 17800 S Redwood Rd, Camp Williams, UT 84065 Period of Performance: 6th and 7th of May 2023 Subject: UTARNG HRF CTE Role Players Repsonse Due Date: 0700 AM MST 27 Mar 2023 Contracting POC: Otha Henderson Email: otha.b.henderson.civ@army.mil Description: ***This requirement is being solicited as a total small business set-aside*** The Utah National Guard is soliciting a requirement for role player support under combined synopsis/solicitation W911YP23R0003, which is being issued for Request for Quotations (RFQ). This requirement is being solicited as a total small business set-aside under NAICS code 541611, Admin Mgt and General Mgt Consulting Services, which has a small business size standard of $21.5 million. For vendor’s quotes to be considered, you must be registered in SAM.GOV as a small business under this NAICS code or very similar NAICS code, and must also demonstrate your company’s capability to provide role player support in accordance with the attached Performance Work Statement (PWS) and annex (ensure you view the 6 Mar 23 revision) and any Q&A posted as an attachment. SET-ASIDE / FAR REGULATION: Any award resulting from this solicitation will be made using a total small business set-aside order of precedence as follows: In accordance with FAR Subpart 19.502-2 total small business set-aside procedures, any awards under this solicitation will be made on a competitive basis first to small business concerns in accordance with FAR 19.502-2. If there are no acceptable offers from small business concerns, the set-aside shall be withdrawn and the requirement, if still valid, will be made on the basis of full and open competition considering all offers submitted by responsible business concerns. Contract Type / Evaluation Criteria: The contract type for this procurement will be a firm-fixed price contract for role player support during the UTARNG HRF CTE planned for 6th and 7th of May 2023. Award will be based on an all or none basis using best value trade-off evaluation criteria. This award may also be combined with the award resulting from solicitation W911YP23R0004, providing it is in the government’s best interest and if the vendor meets all business size standards for set-aside that may apply; however, a separate proposal must be submitted for both requirements. Proposals must first be technically acceptable in meeting all the specifications outlined in the attached PWS. Recent past performance experience relating to role player support will be used to further demonstrate capability in meeting the PWS. Relevancy and currency will be considered for past performance; the government’s intent is to ensure there is past performance and that it is acceptable. If a contractor has no relevant past performance, the contractor will be rated neutral and not have that count against them. Past performance is intended to further strengthen the contractors’ capabilities. For best value trade-off, the quote determined to provide best value is one that best demonstrates the ability to meet all the technical aspects outlined in this solicitation and the PWS, further supported by recent and relevant past performance. Price will be the next consideration and will be weighted slightly less than meeting technical requirements. In considering best value trade-off, the government reserves the right to award to other than lowest price. Best value trade-off will be used in accordance with FAR 13.106-1(a)(2).
