The Summary Page(s) shall not exceed two (2) pages. Past Performance Information (PPI): Utilizing the PPI Sheet (Attachment 7), submit accurate information on a maximum of three (3) recent contracts with the federal, state and/or local government. The Government may collect additional references from other sources during the evaluation of past performance. It is the Offeror's responsibility to ensure the POC information provided in the PPI is accurate, is available, and is knowledgeable of the performance provided under that contract. In order to meet the definition of recency as defined in Addendum to FAR 52.212-2, contract performance of at least one (1) year in length and within the last five (5) years from the date of the issuance of this solicitation. The quality assessment will consist of an evaluation of the PPI, Past Performance Questionnaire (PPQ) responses (PPQ, Attachment 8) and CPARS information.

As soon as practicable, Offerors shall complete Section I of the PPQ (Attachment 8) and email it to all POC(s) the Offeror has identified in the PPI (Attachment 7).

Any quote, modification, or revision received after the time specified for receipt of quotes is “late” and will not be considered unless it is received before award is made and the Contracting Officer determines that accepting the late quotes would not unduly delay the acquisition. However, a late modification of an otherwise successful quote that makes its terms more favorable to the Government will be considered at any time it is received and may be accepted. If an emergency or unanticipated event interrupts normal Government processes so that quotes cannot be received at the Government office designated for receipt of quotes by the exact time specified in the solicitation, and urgent Government requirements preclude amendment of the solicitation or other notice of an extension of the closing date, the time specified for receipt of quotes will be deemed to be extended to the same time of day specified in the solicitation on the first work day on which normal Government processes resume. Offerors may withdraw their quotes by written notice to the Government received at any time before award. Contract award The Government intends to evaluate quotes and award a contract without negotiations with Offerors. Therefore, the Offeror’s initial quote should contain the Offeror’s best terms. However, the Government reserves the right to conduct negotiations, if necessary. A written notice of the award will be furnished to the successful Offeror. Both the Offeror and Government shall sign to make the contract binding. Award Notice A written award notice will be provided to each unsuccessful offeror within three (3) days of award. The Contracting Officer has discretion on how the award notice is provided to unsuccessful offerors. The award notice content will be IAW 15.207-2(b). Debriefing Offerors may request a post award debriefing by submitting a written request for the debriefing to the Contracting Officer within three (3) days after receipt of the award notice. Such offerors must be debriefed IAW 15.301-1. Section V. Evaluation FAR 52.212-2 Evaluation- Commercial Products and Commercial Services, applies to this acquisition. The Government intends to award a contract resulting from this solicitation to the responsible Offeror whose solicitation response conforming to the solicitation will be most advantageous to the Government, and judged to represent the best value to the Government based on the following factors: A. Evaluation Factors (in order of importance): Price Technical Acceptability Past Performance The Government is utilizing the Best Value Continuum, Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) source selection process. All technically acceptable quotes with an acceptable past performance rating shall be treated equally except for their prices. Failure to meet a requirement may result in an offeror being determined technically unacceptable. By submission of its quote, the offeror accedes to all solicitation requirements, including terms and conditions, representations, and certifications. The Government intends to award a single, Firm-Fixed Price contract as a result of this solicitation to an Offeror who is deemed to be responsible in accordance with FAR subpart 9.1 and as supplemented. B. Evaluation Approach All Offerors will be evaluated for responsiveness. Responsiveness is determined by verifying compliance with FAR 52.212-1 and its addendum. All responsive Offerors will be ordered, by price, from the lowest to the highest Total Evaluated Price (TEP). Offerors are required to use Attachment 4, Pricing Schedule Worksheet to calculate the TEP. The TEP is comprised of the total contract value. Pricing for evaluation purposes will be determined by taking the "amount" of the contract value. Technical evaluations will start with the lowest TEP quote and continue until two (2) quotes are determined to be technically acceptable, or until all quotation responses have been evaluated. The quotation responses determined to be technically acceptable will then be evaluated for past performance until two (2) technically acceptable quotation responses have been determined to have acceptable past performance. Steps three (3) and four (4) will continue until two (2) quotation responses have been determined acceptable in both technical and past performance, or until all quotation responses have been evaluated. The Government will make a determination of price fair and reasonable. Volume I. Pricing Evaluation The Government will evaluate quotes for award purposes based on their TEP. The Government may determine that a solicitation response is unacceptable if the option prices are significantly unbalanced. Evaluation of options shall not obligate the Government to exercise the option(s). Initially, solicitation responses shall be ordered from lowest to highest TEP, as previously defined. For evaluation purposes, FAR 52.217-5, Evaluation of Options will be evaluated and applied to this evaluation. To evaluate the impact of clause FAR 52.217-8, the pricing proposed for option four (4) will be utilized to calculate a six (6) month extension price. Evaluation of options will not obligate the government to exercise the option(s). The TEP will be evaluated to determine whether it is reasonable. In instances where an Offeror's proposed price(s) appears exceptionally low, offerors may be requested to address this disparity by providing evidence of their capability and/or performance at similar price(s). The burden of proof as to price credibility rests with the offeror. An exceptionally or unrealistically low quote that's left unexplained may pose an unacceptable risk to the Government and may be a reason to reject an offeror's solicitation response. The Government anticipates adequate price competition and intends to award a single, Firm-Fixed Price contract without communicating with respective Offerors. The Government, however, reserves the right to communicate if deemed in its best interest. Volume II. Technical Evaluation To be rated as technically acceptable, the offeror’s quote must demonstrate a clear understanding of all requirements in the PWS/SOW. Quotation meets the requirements of the solicitation - Acceptable Quotation does not meet the requirement of the solicitation - Unacceptable An overall technical rating will be assigned; failure to be assigned an acceptable rating in any technical categories will render the entire technical volume unacceptable and, therefore, ineligible for award. Only those solicitation responses determined to be technically acceptable, either initially or as a result of communication, will be considered for award. However, the Offeror is reminded that the government reserves the right to award this effort based on the initial solicitation response, as received, without communication, and may conduct negotiations with all, some, or none of the Offerors. Instructions to Offerors State what is listed in FAR 52.212-1 Evaluation Criteria Measure of Merit: state how the Offeror will be evaluated. Instructions to Offerors Subfactor 1. Technical Approach Technical Approach - Shall clearly explain how the Offeror intends to ensure successful contract performance IAW the PWS. Solicitation responses shall provide convincing rationale addressing how the technical portion of the proposal meets solicitation requirements. Subfactor 2. Phase-In/Transition Plan The Offeror shall submit a proposed Phase-In/Transition Plan (PWS 15) that addresses the offeror's proposed approach for transitioning into the facility. The plan shall address the offeror's proposed strategy for ensuring a smooth transition. Evaluation Criteria Effectively and sufficiently details and summarizes the offeror's technical approach in ensuring performance per the PWS and solicitation requirements. The standard is met when the conditions accurately describe performance in accordance with the PWS. The offeror's proposed Phase-In/Transition Plan and Overall Staffing Approach provides a comprehensive and sound approach for transitioning the services and carrying out the services for the duration of the contract period. Volume III. Past Performance The Offeror's past performance efforts will be assessed in three categories: Recency, Relevancy, and Performance Quality. The Government will only evaluate Performance Quality on past efforts that are determined to be both recent and relevant. Past performance will be evaluated on an Acceptable/Unacceptable scale as defined below. DefinitionRating Based on the Offeror's performance record, the Government has a reasonable expectation that the Offeror will successfully perform the required effort, or the Offeror's performance record is unknown.Acceptable Based on the Offeror's performance record, the Government has no reasonable expectation that the Offeror will be able to successfully perform the required effort.Unacceptable Recency Assessment: An assessment of the PPI, Attachment 7 will be made to determine if it is recent. To meet the definition of recency, contract performance of at least one (1) year in length and within the last five (5) years from the date of the issuance of this solicitation. Relevancy Assessment: The Government will conduct an evaluation of recent performance information obtained to determine how closely the services performed relate to the Scope/Complexity, Magnitude, Contract Type and Contract Environment of efforts described in this solicitation. Relevancy definitions are provided in Table 7 below. Performance Quality Assessment: The government will determine how well the offeror performed on past contracts that are both recent and relevant, and, based on an integrated assessment, assign a rating of "Acceptable" or "Unacceptable" as described. In the case of an Offeror without a record of relevant past performance or for whom information on past performance is not available or so sparse that no meaningful past performance rating can be reasonably assigned, the Offeror may not be evaluated favorably or unfavorably on past performance IAW FAR15.202(c)(1). Therefore, the Offeror shall be determined to have unknown past performance. Unknown or neutral past performance, in the context of acceptability/unacceptability, a neutral rating shall be considered acceptable.
