Win Alliant 3 Now: Here is your Free Strategy and Tracking Tool!
NOVEMBER 2024 UPDATE: The Alliant 3 competition just got more intense! With Amendment #3 released on November 8, Amendment #4 released on November 22, 2024, and Amendment #5 released on November 26, the General Services Administration (GSA) has introduced several changes:
- The due date is extended to February 3, 2025, at 4:00 PM ET.
- The new version of attachment J.P-10 was provided as V.3; the original form had expired.
- Task Orders combined for Primary NAICS Code Relevant Experience Projects can be submitted separately and be used as individual Emerging Technology Relevant Experience Projects (L.5.2.4.2).
- The Government Project Manager or other cognizant individuals can sign the J.P-3 form for emerging technologies (ETs); previously, only the Contracting Officer or Contracting Officer’s Representative could sign the form.
- Section K is no longer filled out in Symphony; it is now submitted as a PDF file. Note that there are numerous changes in Section K of the RFP, so be sure to use the latest one.
- Either tagging or a cover page is required to identify artifact proof points, but not both.
- Files should never be combined; submit each individually, except when using a group of task orders as a project.
- For other transaction authorities (OTAs), only the J.P-3 is required (no J.P-4), and the Government should sign (not the OTA consortium).
- The facility clearance letter (FCL) letter must be current, signed, and dated prior to the due date.
- 1,500 points for foreign locations now only applies to contracts where the primary place of performance was a foreign location.
Contracts will still be awarded to only 76 companies (with a few more if scores are tied), so it is more important than ever to verify that your proposal is 100% compliant and achieves the highest score possible.
At Lohfeld Consulting, we understand the importance of staying ahead of the competition. Our team of former GSA contracting officers and SMEs believes that to be successful, you’ll likely need to score 90% or higher on the valuation criteria, and our free Strategy and Tracking Tool will help.
