![Page 17: Doing Business With DoD & The Intel Community - BEHIND CLOSED DOORS #govcon](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022051503/587391d31a28ab85438b49f9/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
LPTA
Strategies for Lowest Price Technically Acceptable
Bids
![Page 18: Doing Business With DoD & The Intel Community - BEHIND CLOSED DOORS #govcon](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022051503/587391d31a28ab85438b49f9/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Thoughts on LPTA
• Use client risk aversion to your advantage • Know the guidelines (FAR, BBP 2.0, DFAR, etc) • Incumbent is in a tough spot • No points for extra effort • Factors in “Technically Acceptable”
• Credibility, quality, schedule, capacity, reputation, past performance, personnel qualifications, project management, approach, risk management, facilities
• Focus on minimums, not differentiation • Lower rates by teaming • TA must be comprehensive…must clearly define government’s
minimum requirements (low risk, high probability of delivering, etc) • LPTA winning proposals focus on proving you are the only acceptable
offerer. • “Buying” the work is a one-time silver bullet for most firms

FCL Requirements in Contracts FAR Clause 52.204-2, “Security Requirements” • Prescribed by FAR 4.404(a) (see also FAR 4.402 and 4.403)
Contractor executes DD Form 441 “Security Agreement”
NISP Operating Manual (NISPOM) (DoD 5220.22-M, 2/28/2006) is incorporated into contract
Contracting activity issues DD 254 “Contract Security Classification Specification” • Identifies specific security requirements and classification
guidance
54
![Page 55: Doing Business With DoD & The Intel Community - BEHIND CLOSED DOORS #govcon](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022051503/587391d31a28ab85438b49f9/html5/thumbnails/55.jpg)
Contracting Officer Determines need for classified access
Verifies facility clearance and safeguarding approval
• Possessing/Non-possessing;
• IT requirements?
Issues sponsorship letter if necessary
Accurately reflects security requirements for both the procurement process and contract performance
55
![Page 56: Doing Business With DoD & The Intel Community - BEHIND CLOSED DOORS #govcon](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022051503/587391d31a28ab85438b49f9/html5/thumbnails/56.jpg)
Facility Clearance Process Contractor is sponsored for FCL by contracting
activity or another cleared company
• Sponsorship letter is sent to DSS Facility Clearance Branch
• Contractor must have or obtain CAGE code
DSS contacts contractor with explanation of the FCL process and required documentation
DSS assigns the contractor to a local DSS Industrial Security Field Office for initial and follow-on visits
56
![Page 57: Doing Business With DoD & The Intel Community - BEHIND CLOSED DOORS #govcon](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022051503/587391d31a28ab85438b49f9/html5/thumbnails/57.jpg)
Requirements for Facility Clearance DSS must determine that the contractor meets five
threshold requirements before issuing the FCL. The contractor must:
1. Need access to classified information in connection with a legitimate US Gov’t or foreign gov’t requirement (sponsorship letter and later DD 254 fulfill this requirement)
2. Be organized and existing under the laws of any of the U.S. states, DC or an organized U.S. territory
NISPOM (DoD 5220.22-M) sections 2-102 and 2-104

Requirements for Facility Clearance (cont.) 3. Have a reputation for integrity and lawful conduct in its
business dealings • Company and key managers must not be debarred or suspended
from Federal contracting
4. Not be under foreign ownership, control or influence (FOCI) to such a degree that granting the FCL would be inconsistent with the national interest
5. Senior management official, facility security officer (and Board Chair), and Insider Officer must each have personnel clearances at the level of the facility clearance

FOCI factors (see NISPOM 2-301 and USD(I) DTM 09-019)

Mitigating FOCI Board Resolution
• Minority foreign interest with no Board representation
• Doesn’t affect available FCL levels
Security Control Agreement
• Minority foreign interest with Board representation
• Doesn’t affect available FCL levels
