- Description
- The Government intends to award one commercial Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract in accordance with FAR Part 12 and FAR Part 15 to the winning Offeror. This contract will have a five (5) year base ordering period with five (5) one one-year option periods. This acquisition will utilize a Tradeoff of Past Performance and Price (see FAR 15.3) to make an integrated assessment for the best overall offer, based upon an integrated assessment of Past Performance and Price among technically acceptable proposals. This is a competitive 8(a) set-aside source selection conducted in accordance with FAR subpart 19.8, DoD Source Selection Procedures dated 1 September 2022, AFFARS 5315.3, and AFFARS MP5315.3. Only eligible 8(a) Offerors will be considered for award. Interested parties are requested to provide a proposal in accordance with the requirements of this RFP. Background: The RDIF was initiated as an organic development capability within the Air Force Life Cycle Management Center (AFLCMC) for Air Force (AF) Irregular Warfare and command, control, communications, computers, intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (C4ISR) acquisition needs. This initiative established an AF aircraft development and prototype center of excellence, which does not supplant current test centers or processes. This initiative supports current reform initiatives and the current and future acquisition environment. It leverages existing Wright-Patterson AFB (WPAFB) infrastructure initially, then develops the capability over time. The Government reserves the right to evaluate proposals and award a contract without discussions with Offerors (except for clarifications as described in FAR 15.306(a)); therefore, each initial offer should contain the Offeror�s best terms from a price and technical standpoint. However, the Government reserves the right to conduct discussions with Offerors if the Source Selection Authority determines that discussions are necessary. This electronic posting consists of this letter, the RFP, and attachments. Please note that some attachments are embedded in the model contract and are also separately attached to the posting on the RFP website to help with readability, in which case they are not numbered on the RFP website. The Past Performance Information (PPI) Tool must be requested from the primary and secondary points of contact AS SOON AS POSSIBLE; it cannot be transmitted via https://sam.gov/. Please check the RFP website, https://sam.gov/, on a regular basis, for updates. Any amendments to the solicitation will be posted to the website. This RFP requires Offerors to identify any actual Organizational Conflict of Interest (OCI) or significant potential OCI issues IAW FAR subpart 9.5, as supplemented. OCI mitigation plans or a statement that no OCI exists shall accompany each proposal. Offerors and the awardee are responsible for immediately notifying the Contracting Officer (CO) should any potential OCI arise at any time prior to or after contract award. The Government reserves the right to cancel this solicitation either before or after the closing date. In the event the Government cancels this solicitation, the Government has no obligation to reimburse an Offeror for any costs. This RFP is not authorization to begin performance and in no way obligates the Government for any costs incurred by the Offeror associated with developing a proposal. The Government reserves the right not to award a contract in response to this RFP. Prior to commencement of any activities associated with the performance of this requirement, the Government will issue a written directive or contractual document signed by the CO with appropriate consideration established. This will normally be done by execution of task orders issued to the winning contractor; in this case, the Government plans to award the first task order immediately after award of this IDIQ. This RFP specifies the solicitation provisions and contract clauses that are expected to be included in the award document. The Government anticipates that most employees performing work on this contract are covered by Service Contract Labor Standards (SCLS) provisions (as implemented by FAR 52.222-41). However, there may be some employees who are exempt if the employee meets the criteria specified in Department of Labor (DOL) regulation 29 CFR Part 541 for Executive, Professional, Administrative, or Computer-related occupations. This RFP requests that Offerors submit Past Performance no later than seven calendar days before the submission deadline. Offerors are also requested to instruct those completing Past Performance Questionnaires to submit them to the Government no later than seven calendar days before the submission deadline. See Section L for full instructions relating to early Past Performance submission. It is recommended that Offerors note the specific requirements for access to ITAR data. Submission of an adequate proposal will not be possible without access to ITAR data required for completion of the first task order; instructions are in Section M. In accordance with DAFFARS MP5332.7(a), Notice to Offeror(s)/Supplier(s): Funds are not presently available for this effort. No award will be made under this solicitation until funds are available. The Government reserves the right to cancel this solicitation, either before or after the closing date. In the event the Government cancels this solicitation, the Government has no obligation to reimburse an offeror for any costs. Proposals are due by 4:00 PM Eastern Time on 14 October 2025. Submit proposals in accordance with Section L, Instructions to Offerors. LATE PROPOSALS WILL NOT BE ACCEPTED. Questions and Answers, Assumptions, and Exceptions: Offerors are cautioned that all communications are to be channeled through the Contracting Officer (CO) and Contract Specialist only. Any questions, whether technical or contractual in nature, shall be submitted in writing to Christopher Simendinger (CO) via email at christopher.simendinger@us.af.mil and Anaiya Taylor (Contract Specialist) via email at anaiya.taylor@us.af.mil no later than 4:00 PM Eastern Time on 30 September 2025. Proprietary information in questions will be removed, and questions will be consolidated and responses posted to https://sam.gov/. No further questions will be addressed on this solicitation if received after the 30 September 2025 deadline. Offerors shall address any assumptions and proposed exceptions to the CO in their proposals.
