Industry Day - Human Resource Solutions, GEN VI Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity Multiple Award Contracts

Questions & Answers / Clarifications

This document provides responses to vendor questions regarding a draft Request for Proposal (RFP) for the Human Resources Solutions (HRS) program, encompassing both RMAS and PLS IDIQ contracts. It clarifies various aspects of the solicitation, proposal submission, and evaluation criteria.

• Personnel Security Functions: The government indicated that personnel security-related functions (e.g., onboarding, access authorization, vetting) have historically not been a primary function under RMAS but could be performed as an ancillary task under business management services.
• H2F Task Order: The contract strategy for future H2F requirements is undetermined, and the recompete may not be under this IDIQ.
• Past Performance Questionnaires (PPQs): PPQs are required and cannot be substituted by CPARS alone. The government provided specific instructions for submitting PPQs, including email addresses for submission.
• Labor Rates & FOIA: Labor rates submitted at the Task Order (TO) level may be subject to FOIA release but can be protected under FAR 52.215-1(e). The government will follow Executive Order 12600 procedures for disclosure determinations.
• eCRAFT Data: Standardized labor category mappings and data definitions for the eCRAFT tool are not required at the IDIQ level but may be requested at the TO level. The ACC is deploying the eCRAFT Enterprise tool, expected in FY2026.
• Past Performance Relevancy: Offerors are responsible for describing how work performed under similar NAICS codes (e.g., 541611) is relevant to the NAICS code of the solicitation (541612).
• Small Business Participation: Small Business Subcontracting Plans are required for large businesses. Small business offerors must submit a Small Business Participation Past Performance demonstrating compliance with FAR 52.219-8. There are no set small business goals.
• Qualifying Contracts (QCs): QCs can be prime, subcontracts, or commercial contracts. IDIQ/BPA level contracts cannot be used as QCs unless the substantiating documents specifically pertain to the TO contract.
• Page Count: Summary sections are not anticipated to count against the page limit in the final RFP. Supporting documentation for corporate knowledge references is included in the page count unless otherwise stated.
• Mentor-Protégé JV: A Mentor-Protégé JV may bid if the mentor entity holds the required clearance, but the JV must independently obtain the required FCL if necessary.

These clarifications address key concerns regarding proposal content, evaluation criteria, and submission requirements, impacting how bidders prepare and submit their proposals. Specific sections of the draft RFP are noted as requiring revision prior to final release.
