- Description
- RFP 60RRBH18R0008 Attachment R Attachment Q Attachment P Attachment O Attachment N Attachment M Attachment L - Nondisclosure Certification. Request for sensitive documents. The RRB is an independent agency in the Executive branch of the Federal government. The RRB's primary function is to administer comprehensive retirement/survivor and unemployment/sickness insurance benefit programs for railroad workers and their families under the Railroad Retirement Act (RRA) and the Railroad Unemployment Insurance Act (RUIA). The RRB also administers aspects of the Medicare program and has administrative responsibilities under the Social Security Act and Internal Revenue Code. The RRB headquarters is located at 844 N. Rush Street, Chicago, Illinois 60611. The RRB currently employs approximately 900 employees who work in its headquarters and in 53 field offices across the continental United States in localities easily accessible by large numbers of railroad workers. The U.S. Railroad Retirement Board (RRB) intends to acquire, via full and open competition, services to re-platform the RRB's legacy mainframe applications (approx. 10 million lines of code), currently written in COBOL/CICS, and associated databases and files to process on a cloud-ready and/or FedRAMP cloud server-based ecosystem. The RRB anticipates that the services will begin in June 2018 for the base period services (discovery and re-platforming) plus option year(s). The RRB desires the discovery and re-platforming services to be completed in approximately 12-15 months from the date of award. It is the intent of the Government to process this procurement under FAR Part 15, Contracting by Negotiation, and to ultimately award a Firm Fixed-Price (FFP) Contract for the base services plus optional services as a result of the forthcoming solicitation. Offerors will be required to submit technical and price proposals, as well as a small business subcontracting plan. The Government anticipates that the resultant contract will be awarded on a best value basis where the technical volume will be considered more important than the price proposal. Upon its release, the solicitation will be issued electronically and be available for downloading on the FedBizOpps website, http://www.fedbizopps.gov, on or about March 30, 2018 (Note: Due to issues caused by the Continuing Resolution expiring 3/23/18, there MAY be a delay in posting). The closing date for the receipt of offers will be set forth in the RFP. Paper copies, faxed copies, or email copies of the solicitation will not be provided. Interested parties are solely responsible for monitoring the above website for posting of the RFP and any amendments thereto. The Government will not pay for the information received in response to the RFP, nor will the Government reimburse for any questions submitted. All responsible sources may submit a proposal, which will be considered by the RRB. By submitting an offer, the offeror is self-certifying that neither the requestor nor the principal corporate officials and owners are currently suspended, debarred, or otherwise ineligible to receive contracts from any federal agency. Failure to do so may represent grounds RRB to refuse to accept the offer. By submission of an offer, the contractor acknowledges the requirements that a prospective awardee must be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) database prior to submission of their offer. Lack of registration in the SAM database will make a contractor ineligible for award. Contractors may obtain information on SAM registration and annual confirmation requirements via the internet at https://www.sam.gov/portal/public/SAM/. The RRB will not respond to any inquiries regarding this announcement. ************************************************************ 03/30/2018 - The Request for Proposals is now posted along with Attachments L through R.
