Frequently Asked Questions I attended a pre-bid conference for a lease construction project. Can I get a copy of the sign-in list? Yes, the contracting officer may release this information.

Frequently Asked Questions I was notified that my offer will advance to Phase II of the procurement. May I get a list of the others who also advanced? No, this is procurement sensitive information and cannot be released prior to award of a lease.

Frequently Asked Questions I want to make an offer on an SFO that requires a LEED accredited professional as a team member. I have never done this before and do not want to now. Your offer will be rejected because it fails to meet a minimum SFO requirement.

Frequently Asked Questions I did not advance to Phase II. What kind of information can I get at a pre-award debriefing? At a minimum, (1) The agency’s evaluation of significant elements in the offeror’s proposal; (2) A summary of the rationale for eliminating the offeror from the competition; and (3) Reasonable responses to relevant questions about whether source selection procedures contained in the solicitation, applicable regulations, and other applicable authorities were followed in the process of eliminating the offeror from the competition.

Frequently Asked Questions Can I get my ranking during the pre-award debriefing? No, FAR (f) prevents us from disclosing pre-award: The number of offerors The number of offerors The identity of other offerors The identity of other offerors The content of other offerors’ proposals The content of other offerors’ proposals The ranking of other offerors The ranking of other offerors The evaluation of other offerors, or The evaluation of other offerors, or Other prohibited or exempt information, e.g. trade secrets, names of references, etc. Other prohibited or exempt information, e.g. trade secrets, names of references, etc.

Frequently Asked Questions But, can I find out who won? We must notify unsuccessful offerors within 3 days after the date of contract award, That notices includes (i) The number of offerors solicited; (ii) The number of proposals received; (iii) The name and address of each offeror receiving an award; (iv) For leasing, normally the total contract price need be furnished in the notice; and (v) In general terms, the reason(s) the offeror’s proposal was not accepted, unless the price information in paragraph (b)(1)(iv) of this section readily reveals the reason.

Frequently Asked Questions I made it to Phase II. What kind of feedback should I expect after my Phase II offer is evaluated? The contracting officer should discuss deficiencies, significant weaknesses, and adverse past performance information to which the offeror has not yet had an opportunity to respond. The contracting officer also is encouraged to discuss other aspects of the offeror’s proposal that could, in the opinion of the contracting officer, be altered or explained to enhance materially the proposal’s potential for award. However, the contracting officer is not required to discuss every area where the proposal could be improved. The scope and extent of discussions are a matter of contracting officer judgment.

Frequently Asked Questions Recently our short-listed team was told we could bring no more than 5 people to the oral presentation. We had to hope we had selected the right 5 people to attend vs. having the freedom to bring each of the key participants.

The limit is intended to help the Government evaluate how well you understand the requirements of the SFO and what a good representation would be. A limit, if any, will vary by procurement.
