This solicitation includes the following four attachments: ATTACHMENT 1 - Statement of Work (SOW) and Associated Attachments ATTACHMENT 2 - Evaluation Factors ATTACHMENT 3 - Student Proposal Form ATTACHMENT 4- Applicable Clauses ? Additional Terms and Conditions of the Order In an effort to clarify the terms student and recent graduate, the definitions of each are provided below. A student is an individual, at least 18 years of age, who is enrolled, in good standing, in a degree program (actively seeking a degree) at a recognized educational institution. A student is not required to carry a full course load, as long as the individual is a bona fide student, not merely someone who signed up for a class in order to work under these contract arrangements. A recent graduate is an individual, at least 18 years of age, who has graduated with a degree from a college or university within the last two years. A mentor - is a Federal employee, proficient in the subject matter related to the student's field of study, which provides day-to-day direction, coaches, advises, counsels and provides guidance and support to the student or recent graduate in the performance of their work. Mentors review the student's or recent graduate's work and provide input to the COR on the quality and quantity of this work. Unless the mentor is also the COR, mentors will not perform acquisition functions, such as approval of invoices, and therefore, are not required to comply with the COR training requirements as stated in CMM Section 42.1. The Mentor should normally be collocated with the student so as to be readily available to the student contractor. The Government will make contract award based on evaluation factors other than price which will consider the following: Total years of study in remote sensing and GIS; Total course hours in the study of remote sensing, GIS, forestry, plant sciences, biology, statistics; Total hours in working with ERDAS and ENVI remote sensing software; Total months of relevant employment/volunteer services in remote sensing and GIS; grade point average; and geographic location.
