Form / Attachment / Pricing Sheet

This document is a pricing worksheet associated with RFQ #693JJ326Q000018. It is intended for bidders to provide their quoted prices for the contract line items (CLINs).

• RFQ Number: 693JJ326Q000018
• CLINs: The worksheet lists four CLINs:
  • 00101: Task 1: Attend Kick-Off Meeting
  • 00201: Task 2: Collect, Extract, Integrate, and Evaluate Roadway Geometric Design Elements and Infrastructure Factors Affecting RwD Avoidance ADAS
  • 00301: Task 3: Develop Technical Report
  • 00401: Task 4: Develop Outreach Materials
• Pricing: Each CLIN is priced as Firm-Fixed Price.
• Period of Performance: Each CLIN has a period of performance of 30 Months from Date of Award.
• Fields: Includes columns for Quantity, Unit, Unit Price, and Total Price for each CLIN, as well as a "TOTAL QUOTED PRICE FOR ALL CLINs".

Bidders must use this worksheet to enter their proposed unit and total prices for each CLIN. The "TOTAL QUOTED PRICE FOR ALL CLINs" field should reflect the overall cost of the proposed effort. This document is critical for proposal preparation and will be used by the government for evaluation.

Solicitation / RFP / RFQ

This Request for Quotation (RFQ) seeks to procure services for identifying roadway design and infrastructure factors that influence Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) in mitigating rural roadway departure crashes. The goal is to optimize the safety benefits of ADAS technologies by understanding and improving roadway geometry and infrastructure.

• Task 1: Attend Kick-Off Meeting: Coordinate and facilitate a kick-off meeting, develop a draft work plan, and arrange bi-weekly check-in meetings.

• Task 2: Collect, Extract, Integrate, and Evaluate Roadway Geometric Design Elements and Infrastructure Factors: Conduct a data-driven process to collect and analyze data (geometric design, infrastructure features, crash data, vehicle trajectory) to identify factors affecting RwD avoidance ADAS performance on rural roads. This includes using GIS and image-based extraction, analyzing historical crash data, and conducting a safety analysis.

• Task 3: Develop Technical Report: Prepare a comprehensive technical report, including outlines, drafts, and final versions, along with presentation materials.

• Task 4: Develop Outreach Materials: Create marketing and outreach materials, such as a peer-reviewed journal/conference paper or a webinar.

• Contract Type: Firm-Fixed-Price (FFP) purchase order.

• Period of Performance: 30 months (24 months for project completion, 6 months for review).

• Technical Quote: Must include a Technical Approach and a Staffing Approach.

• Price Quote: Must be submitted using the provided Pricing Worksheet.

• Organizational Information: Mandatory business information must be included in the cover email.

• Past Performance: Examples of relevant past experience are required.

• Submission Method: Quotations must be submitted electronically in a SINGLE email, not exceeding 10 Megabytes.

• Evaluation Criteria: Lowest Price Technical Acceptability (LPTA). Technical quotes will be rated acceptable/unacceptable.

• Key Deadlines:

  • Technical Questions Due Date: May 4, 2026
  • Quotation Due Date: May 11, 2026

• This RFQ is a non-set-aside.

• Vendors must have a current active registration in the System for Award Management (SAM.gov).

• The solicitation includes numerous FAR and TAR provisions and clauses.

• The project necessitates the use of the Google Map Platform; subscription costs must be included in the quote.

• Invoices must be submitted electronically via the Delphi eInvoicing web-portal.
