AFSTS will consist of two (2) Tiers.� Within the multi-award IDIQ structure for AFSTS, the Government intends to award to each and all Technically Acceptable vendors that submit a proposal in Tier 1 and each and all Technically Acceptable vendors that submit a proposal in Tier 2. Two of the Tier 2 IDIQ awards are set-aside for Small Businesses (SB) only.� If no Small Business Offeror�s are considered Technically Acceptable, the Small Business set aside portion in Tier 2 will automatically dissolve IAW FAR 19.507.

Once an Offeror declares in one tier, it cannot change tiers.� If a Sub submits with multiple primes in more than one tier, that sub will be disqualified from future task orders. Subcontractors cannot perform as subcontractors to multiple prime contractors within the same tier. This does not apply to Non-Traditional Small Businesses.� Tier 1 - Corporate experience successfully performing studies, research and analysis and developing transformational strategies for Fortune 1-100 companies and experience advising C-suite executives and large organizations through highly complex, undefined, and unstructured problems and; Corporate experience successfully assisting the Air Force (or other federal entity of similar scope and complexity) and advising senior leaders through developing transformational strategies; translating and incorporating commercial best practices through highly complex, undefined, and unstructured problems For the purpose of Tier 1, the term �highly complex, undefined, and unstructured problems� means the problems faced in this tier of effort are usually large in scale with little context or definition provided.� The challenges are applicable to the Air Force and usually to the Department of Defense (DoD) enterprise, if not the federal Government as a whole (e.g. Category Management).� The request comes from senior levels of the Air Force, require engagement across multiple stakeholder communities (internal and external to the Air Force and/or DoD), and usually have political or statutory impacts.��� There are (potentially) no existing best practices in Government to leverage.
