R--Space and Missile Defense Advisory and Assistance Services (SMDA2S) - W9126013R0003 - Synopsis of Contract Award

This contract action was not awarded as a fixed price type because uncertainties involved in contract performance did not permit costs to be estimated with sufficient accuracy to use any type of fixed price contract. As such, a cost-reimbursement type action was awarded (FAR 16.301-2). The Space and Missile Defense Advisory and Assistance Services (SMDA2S) acquisition, Solicitation Number W91260-13-R-0003, was conducted in support of the US Army Space and Missile Defense Command/Army Forces Strategic Command (USASMDC/ARSTRAT) and supported agencies for their various missions such as: Space; Missile Defense; Global Strike; Information Operations (IO); Cyber Operations (CO); Command, Control, Communications, Computers, Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (C4ISR); Transformational Communications Architecture (TCA); Friendly Force Tracking; Integrated Joint Special Technical Operations (IJSTO); Commercial Imagery; and related missions. The scope of the SMDA2S effort provides Advisory and Assistance Services (A&AS) in the following major functional areas: Infrastructure and Organizational Support; Intelligence; System Engineering and Integration; Integrated Logistics; Emerging Technologies; Operations; Exercise Planning and Execution; Training; Communications; Staff Support; and Test & Evaluation. The SMDA2S source selection was conducted as a Total Small Business Set-Aside in accordance with FAR 15.3, as supplemented by DFARS 215.3 and AFARS 5315.3. A Best Value Continuum - Tradeoff Process was utilized and in accordance with the SMDA2S Solicitation, four factors were evaluated: Factor 1 Management, Factor 2 Mission Capability, Factor 3 Past Performance and Factor 4 Cost. The relative importance of each factor was as follows: Mission Capability was more important than Management, and the two combined were more important than Past Performance. The non-Cost Factors, combined, are significantly more important than the Cost Factor. However, cost is still a major consideration in the source selection decision.
