INFORMATION FOR ORDERING ACTIVITIES APPLICABLE TO ALL SPECIAL ITEM NUMBERS SPECIAL NOTICE TO AGENCIES Small Business Participation SBA strongly supports the participation of small business concerns in the Federal Supply Schedules Program. To enhance Small Business Participation SBA policy allows agencies to include in their procurement base and goals, the dollar value of orders expected to be placed against the Federal Supply Schedules, and to report accomplishments against these goals. For orders exceeding the micro purchase threshold, FAR 8.404 requires agencies to consider the catalogs/pricelists of at least three schedule contractors or consider reasonably available information by using the GSA Advantage! on-line shopping service (www.fss.gsa.gov ). The catalogs/pricelists, GSA Advantage! and the Federal Supply Service Home Page (www.fss.gsa.gov ) contain information on a broad array of products and services offered by small business concerns. This information should be used as a tool to assist ordering activities in meeting or exceeding established small business goals. It should also be used as a tool to assist in including small, small disadvantaged, and women-owned small businesses among those considered when selecting pricelists for a best value determination. For orders exceeding the micro purchase threshold, customers are to give preference to small business concerns when two or more items at the same delivered price will satisfy their requirement. 1.

COMPANY OVERVIEW Experience PPD Consultants, LLC (PPDC) is an engineering services organization founded in 2003. PPDC consults for organizations at work locations throughout the United States. We provide professional engineering and information technology consulting services to clients in manufacturing, government, and defense contractor industries. For Manufacturing Firms, we help Companies improve their profitability and competitive position by providing product development analysis, training, and support services. For Government Contractors, we help achieve increased Customer satisfaction by providing engineering analysis, training, and application of product development methods, such as the use of Integrated Product Teams. We also contribute to winning proposals as a subject matter expert. For Government Agencies, we help Agencies improve business, engineering collaboration and contractor performance, and maximize project funds through the use of proven methods and techniques such as Integrated Product Teams (IPT), Lean / Six Sigma, and Product Lifecycle Management. In commercial sales, PPDC consultants have delivered services to many corporate and government clients, including: Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, Best Buy, Ingersoll-Rand, and many smaller commercial manufacturing firms and as a contributing subcontractor for the US Navy, US Army, US Air Force, NASA, and the US Coast Guard. Accomplishing PES Task Orders Our approach to accomplishing PES task orders is to have clarity of customer expectations and requirements, to have joint agreement on the personnel to perform the task, an agreed-upon expectation of scope in terms of work to be accomplished versus hours to be expended, and an agreed-upon schedule for task accomplishment. Also, intermediate milestones will be established to measure progress and rate customer satisfaction. We use this process with our existing contracts of similar scope because of the high degree of client acceptance and satisfaction it has gained. Quality Control and Quality Assurance Since its founding in 2003, PPDC has gained significant corporate experience, and leverages the quality experience of the staff. The founder and President of PPDC, Michael T. Dominik, has over 24 years of engineering technology experience both within government agencies and as a contractor to various government agencies including the Department of Defense (DoD), Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and many commercial and industrial clients as well. To maintain consistent quality, PPDC utilizes proven and predictable processes for quality control and assurance. By placing increased emphasis on thorough and accurate project planning before the start of performance, expectations are more satisfied, and quality products and services can be delivered for acceptance. Our key quality control and assurance processes include: (1) Comprehensive Statement of Work. We identify and document comprehensive requirements and expectations (in the Statement of Work) before the contract award, so that mutual understanding of expectations is accomplished, increasing the probability of success and satisfaction of both Clients and PPDC; (2) Detailed Work Schedule Plan. We create a Microsoft Project-based work plan, which utilizes event-based scheduling, thereby enabling Clients to flex and modify the schedule without impact to their project; (3) Clear Roles and Responsibilities. We develop a personnel assignment and scheduling plan based on the work plan, which the Client can review at any time and approve the staff assignments. We also define what PPDC will be responsible for, as well as what tasks or dependencies other project participants will need to deliver; (4) Customer Satisfaction Reviews. We schedule and
allocate dedicated time for Client feedback, including the use of surveys or other instruments to collect insight; (5) Deliverable Reviews. We always propose pre-delivery reviews of draft versions of deliverables and related products, and actively solicit review and feedback after completion of deliverables; (6) In Process Evaluation. For project tasks that are more than 60 days in length, we plan and schedule in process reviews and evaluations, to share or demonstrate progress of tasks and activities, incorporate Client feedback and special requests, and ensure quality of work conduct; (7) Internal / External Inspection. We utilize internal and external reviews and inspections of in process work and deliverables to ensure quality, timeliness, and accuracy. Our highly qualified and trained staff works directly with our Clients and schedules review cycles based upon significant milestones. Every effort is made to collect feedback throughout individual projects to capture scope changes and to ensure a fluid quality control process. Qualified Staff In order to meet the demands of our customers, PPDC evaluates the objectives and skill set needs of each client project. Partners and associates with PPDC are identified to meet these needs and expectations.
