Pricing - Pricing Is Required For All Items Found In The Schedule Of Items (for Each Group, If Applicable) And For All Tiers. Failure To Offer Pricing For All Items And For All Tiers May Result In A Proposal Being Removed From Consideration For Award As Technically Unacceptable. The Government Will Perform An Aggregate Price Analysis On All Items Found In The Schedule Of Items (for Each Group, If Applicable). To Determine An Offeror's Evaluated Aggregate Price, The Weighted Aggregate Distribution Price Will Be Added To The Aggregate Delivered Price. Please Refer To Paragraph (a) Of This Provision For Further Details Regarding These Price Components. The Award(s) Will Be Made On The Basis Of The Lowest Evaluated Aggregate Price (for Each Group, If Applicable) Of Proposals Meeting Or Exceeding The Acceptability Standards For Non-price Factors. The Government Reserves The Right To Remove Item(s) From The Schedule Of Items Or Do A Common Item Comparison If Offerors Do Not Submit Pricing For All Items. Prior To Award, The Offered Prices Of The Presumptive Awardee(s) Will Be Evaluated On An Individual Line-item Basis To Determine Whether Each Price Is Fair And Reasonable Using Analytical Techniques Deemed Appropriate By The Contracting Officer In Her/his Complete Discretion. a. Price Components: 1. Weighted Aggregate Distribution Price: aggregate Distribution Price Is Obtained By First Multiplying The Proposed Distribution Price For Each Item In The Schedule Of Items By The Item's Estimated Quantity To Calculate The Total Distribution Price For Each Item. Then, The Total Distribution Prices Of All Items Will Be Added Together To Determine The Total Distribution Price For Tier 1. The Total Distribution Price For Each Subsequent Tier Will Also Be Calculated. the Total Distribution Prices For All Tiers Will Be Added Together To Determine The Aggregate Distribution Price. The Aggregate Distribution Price Is Then Multiplied By A Weighting Factor Of 6 To Arrive At The Weighted Aggregate Distribution Price. Note: The Weighting Factor Is Applied Only To The Overall Aggregate distribution Price (not On A Line Item Basis), And Is To Be Used For Evaluation Purposes Only. The Government's Use Of A Weighting Factor Of 6 For Distribution Pricing Is Done In Order To More Accurately Balance The Significance Of The Pricing Components And Their Respective Impact On Any Subsequent Contract(s) Issued Under This Solicitation. 2. Aggregate Delivered Price: the Aggregate Delivered Price Is Obtained By First Multiplying The Proposed Delivered Price Of Each Item In The Schedule Of Items By The Item's Estimated Quantity To Calculate The Total Delivered Price For Each Item. then, The Total Delivered Prices Of All Items Will Be Added Together To Determine The Total Delivered Price For Tier 1. The Total Delivered Price For Each Subsequent Tier Will Also Be Calculated. The Total Delivered Prices For All Tiers Will Be Added Together To Determine The Aggregate Delivered Price. 3. Evaluated Aggregate Price: the Evaluated Aggregate Price Is Obtained By Adding The Weighted Aggregate Distribution Price And aggregate Delivered Price Together. 4. For Purposes Of The Price Proposal Evaluation, Weighted Aggregate Distribution Price And Aggregate delivered Price Are Considered Equal. This Equality Is Accounted For Mathematically By Applying A Weighting Factor Of 6 (based On Current Government Data) To The Aggregate Distribution Price. options Are Not Included In This Solicitation. a Written Notice Of Award Or Acceptance Of An Offer, Mailed Or Otherwise Furnished To The Successful Offeror Within The Time For Acceptance Specified In The Offer, Shall Result In A Binding Contract Without Further Action By Either Party.

Details: Update: 04/27/2020 - Aoi #2 And #3 Have Been Added To This Notice. Please Reference Attachments For Information.  update: 2/25/2020  An Aoi Has Been Added To This Notice. Please Reference Attachments For Information.  section 1 – Introduction under The Authority Of 10 U.s.c. 2371b The Agility Prime Office Is Pursuing Prototype Projects From Nontraditional And Traditional Defense Contractors. These Projects Will Help The Government Assess The Transformative Vertical Flight Market And Vertical Takeoff And Landing (vtol) Technologies. This Effort Seeks To Establish A Collaborative Strategy With Industry And Investors That Accelerates Fielding Of The Most Promising Technologies For Savings And Utility To The Government, As Well As Potential Commercial Market Success. As These Systems Mature Toward Certified Commercial Operations, The Government Will Identify Opportunities For Early Adoption, With The Potential For Procurement And Fielding In The Next Three Years. the Core Technologies Of Interest Include Emerging Electric Vtol (evtol) And Urban/advanced Air Mobility (uam/aam) Aircraft, Although Alternatives Will Be Considered. These Aircraft May Incorporate Non-traditional Electric Or Hybrid Propulsion For Manned Or Optionally Manned Missions, With Onboard Pilot, Remote Pilot, Or Autonomous Control. Based On Emerging Commercial Trends, These Transformational Commercial Vehicles Are Typically Characterized By Employment Of Distributed Propulsion For Vertical Flight And Potential Use Of A Wing For Horizontal Flight, Along With Augmented Flight Control Systems, And High Levels Of Automation Or Autonomy. Besides Aircraft, This Effort Will Consider Similar Support To Enabling Technologies. during This Opening, The Government Intends To Test The Hypothesis That, Compared To Other Ground And Air Vehicles, These Aircraft Could Revolutionize Mobility Given: 1) Lower Maintenance Cost And Time, Through Mechanical Simplicity; 2) Improved Safety And Declining Personnel Demands, Using Autonomy; 3) Affordable Quantity, Based On Potential Mass Production; 4) Improved Acoustics, Employing Distributed Propulsion; And 5) Greater Flexibility And Reduced Infrastructure Needs, With Runway Independence. To Mitigate Risk, This Hypothesis Will Initially Be Tested Outside Of The Urban Environment In Scenarios That Could Potentially Open A Broad Public-use Market For Early Government Adoption Prior To Civil Certification In A Way That Accelerates Uam. Modularity Similar To A Satellite Bus Or Universal Serial Bus (usb) Could Enable Vast Use Cases. These Vehicles, Referred To As Orbs, Are Not Drones, Cars, Helicopters, Trucks, Airplanes, Motorcycles, Or Suvs, But Might Support Similar Missions. Given Their Flexibility, An Orb Could Act As An Organic Resupply Bus For Disaster Relief Teams, An Operational Readiness Bus For Improved Aircraft Availability, And An Open Requirements Bus For A Growing Diversity Of Missions. Orbs Could Enable Distributed Logistics, Sustainment, And Maneuver, With Particular Utility In Medical Evacuation, Firefighting, Civil And Military Disaster Relief, Installation And Border Security, Search And Rescue, And Humanitarian Operations. this Effort Expands On What Has Thus Far Been A Fruitful But Ad Hoc Engagement With Industry In This Sector Through The Following Path: 1) Requesting Details Regarding Planned Commercial Technologies And Markets; 2) Identifying Technologies That Are Likely To Result In Successful Prototypes; 3) Creating Opportunities For Collaborative Test Planning With The Potential Of Offering Test Assets And Expertise; 4) Leveraging This Campaign For Near-term Government Airworthiness Authorization As Well As Procurement Of Hardware, Software, Data, Or Services. The Intent Is To Accelerate Certification, While Also Assessing The Value Of Early Adoption And Fielding. Near-term Government Use-cases Could Occur Prior To Civil Certification And Might Provide Revenue And Data To Help Accelerate Even Broader Adoption And Technology Development. other Transaction For Prototype (otp) the United States Government (usg) May Choose To Award One Or More Otps As A Result Of This Opening, Depending On Evaluations And Funds Availability.
