they would to a standard Federal procurement contract.

Procurement Integrity Applicable



NGCV-P – Proposal Selection Process

• Draft RFPP / SOW for Comment: The Government intends to issue a draft

RFPP and SOW to DATC to be distributed to DATC members. The

members will have the opportunity to provide comments which will be

reviewed and considered and may be incorporated into the final RFPP /

SOW.

• RFPP / Price Matrix: The Government will send the final RFPP/Price

Matrix to DATC who will then distribute to DATC members. The Price Matrix

must be completed by each team member and submitted with the team

proposal.

• Initial Evaluation: The Government is estimating 21 days for initial

evaluation of team proposals and will evaluate in accordance with the

criteria established within the RFPP.

• Oral Review: After initial evaluation of proposals, the Government will

schedule an Oral Review with each proposal team to discern any

ambiguities.



NGCV-P - Proposal Selection Process

• Final Evaluation: Upon completion of Oral Reviews, the Government will

finalize team proposal evaluations.

• Selection: The Government will select a team proposal based upon the

established criteria and will issue Selection Notification (SN) to DATC.

• Feedback Sessions: If requested, the Government will conduct verbal

feedback sessions to identify proposal strengths and weaknesses for non-

selected teams.

• Award: Upon receipt of SN, DATC will issue a Project Agreement to the

selected team (Project Agreement Holder - PAH) for execution, and will

begin processing the first Work Directive(s).



NGCV-P - Evaluation Scheme

• Eligibility

• Acknowledgment of Government Data Rights Requirements

• Offeror/Team Lead Facility Clearance (FCL)

• Evaluation Factors

• Technical Merit (Experience and Capability)

• Non-Traditional Defense Contractor (NDC) Participation

• Total Evaluated Price (TEP)

• Order of Importance

• Technical merit is significantly more important than NDC participation and

NDC participation is more important than TEP.



NGCV-P - Eligibility

• Eligibility – Terms & Conditions

1. ACKNOWLEDGMENT OF GOVERNMENT DATA RIGHTS

Offerors shall provide a single statement that acknowledges the

Government’s plan to assert Government Purpose data rights for all data

produced under this DA2-OTA Project DA2-PA004.

2. OFFEROR/TEAM LEAD FACILITIES CLEARANCE (FCL)

Offerors must, and some team members may, be required to handle or

access classified information in performance of this effort. Offerors shall

submit evidence that it possess a current active (TOP SECRET or SECRET)

FCL that can be verified by the Government AT TIME OF PROPOSAL

SUBMISSION.

These criterion are critical, the project cannot be awarded to an organization

without compliance to these.



NGCV-P - Factor 1 - Technical Merit

Factor 1- Technical Merit includes an evaluation of the extent of team

experience and capabilities (to include strengths, weaknesses, and risk)

within the 6 following critical prototype project evaluation areas:

1. Turret Building and Integration• Design, build and integration of turrets for combat platforms; the ability to determine

and mitigate firing forces while minimizing weight impact; development of

customized slip rings to enable sufficient power and data passage from hull to turret;

and background in ammunition handling system integration.

2. Systems Architecture-Whole Vehicle• Development, implementation and integration of system architecture (hardware and

software), with the approach to include system level functions; de-conflict integrated

components within the architecture; validation and verification compliance of

components and subsystems to architecture; and state any background and

expertise in MagicDraw, or a compatible software toolset

Continued…

This is significantly the most important factor !







3. Software Integration• Development, debugging, integration and validation of technology, subsystem and

platform software; integrating multiple (list number and kind) processor boxes into a

single box with the same capability; adapting software code that is not in the

requested language/format; building, maintaining, and using a System Integration

Laboratory (SIL) for technology and subsystem risk mitigation.

4. Armament Fire Control• Integrating fire control systems into hardware and software architectures, without

degradation of stand-alone fire control of multiple weapon types; and the

development, implementation and integration of technologies necessary for accurate

fire control both stationary and on-the-move.

Continued…








5. Vehicle Mobility and Autonomy Testing• Limited mobility (e.g. multiple road types, slopes) testing of platform and

autonomous testing for final evaluation before sending for User Evaluation.

6. Threat Defense Design and Integration-Armament & Cyber• Design, development, and integration of system and subsystem solutions against

armament threats utilizing multiple solutions; and the design, development and

integration technologies that defend, identify, locate and retaliate against cyber

threats and attacks




NGCV-P - Factor 2 - NDC Participation

Factor 2 - Non-Traditional Defense Contractor Participation includes

an evaluation of:

1. The extent of NDC participation proposed against the critical prototype

project evaluation areas; and

2. The likelihood that the offeror will achieve the level of NDC participation

proposed against those critical prototype project evaluation areas:

• Turret building and integration.

• Systems Architecture-Whole Vehicle.

• Software Complex Integration.

• Armament Fire Control.

• Vehicle Mobility and Autonomy Testing.

• Threat Defense Design and Integration-Armament & Cyber.

This is significantly less important than Technical Merit but more

important than the Price factor.



NGCV-P - Factor 3 - TEP

Factor 3 – Total Evaluated Price (TEP) includes an evaluation of price

reasonableness (to include assessment of unbalanced pricing) based upon

evaluation of:

1. A TEP Narrative and Basis of Estimate

• A description for each of the offeror’s and Team Member’s labor classifications that

explains the minimum education and experience required for each position. Explain the

functional responsibility for each position and map each position to one of the seven

NLPM Labor Categories.

• Basis of Estimate shall explain the source for base salary data (e.g. Economic Research,

Inc., Towers Watson, Salary.Com, Bureau of Labor Statistics, Wage Determination, Etc.)

and need not include labor buildup, indirect rate structure, profit or proprietary data.

2. Attachment 000X – NGCV-P Labor Pricing Matrix (NLPM); and

• The Government will supply Attachment 000X – NLPM as part of the RFPP, to include pre-

filled Composite Labor Rate Categories, Material estimates, and Travel estimates.

This is less important than NDC Participation and the least important factor.
