The agency was to perform a performance confidence assessment and cost/price evaluation on the proposals found technically acceptable or reasonably susceptible of being made technically acceptable. Firms were advised that the agency would first evaluate proposals for technical acceptability on a pass/fail basis. The agency anticipated awarding between six and nine contracts, but reserved the right to make more, fewer, or no awards. The agency was to award contracts on a “best value” basis using a performance price tradeoff procedure. Each awarded contract has a minimum guaranteed value of $2,500 the maximum value of the contracts awarded under the small business set-aside portion of the agency’s acquisition is $5.7 billion. The RFP contemplates a 3-year base period, and up to four 1-year option periods, during which the agency can award one or more task orders to the successful contractors. The RFP anticipates the award of multiple indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) contracts that include cost reimbursable elements, fixed-price elements, and labor hour elements. The overarching acquisition commonly is referred to as Network Centric Solutions-2 (NETCENTS-2), and these protests concern the award of contracts to small business concerns under the small business set-aside portion of the acquisition. The RFP, issued September 28, 2011, solicited proposals to provide network operations, infrastructure and service oriented architecture information and transformation services and solutions to the Air Force and other Department of Defense agencies at locations worldwide. We sustain the protests in part, deny them in part, and dismiss them in part. The protesters maintain that the agency misevaluated proposals, failed to engage in adequate discussions, and made unreasonable source selection decisions.
