ALL PROPOSALS WILL BE CONSIDERED TO BE THE FINAL PROPOSAL.Selection and award of the IDIQ Contract will be based on the following criteria in descending order of importance: 1) Technical Approach, 2) Price, and 3) Relevant Past Performance. Technical Approach is the most important factor, followed by Price and lastly by Relevant Past Performance.The USCG will evaluate the offers that meet the requirements of the solicitation against the following evaluation criteria: Factor 1: Technical Approach and CapabilityThe Government will evaluate each offeror's technical approach and capability to determine their capacity to meet all the requirements outlined in the PWS this will include the evaluation of the understanding of the Statement of Work, Offerors ability to provide required training within 30 days of award, a representative sample of instructors for each class, and the resumes' of personnel designated Key in HSAR 3052.215-70 meet with the requirements set forth in Section 1.3.Factor 2: PriceThe Government will evaluate the reasonableness of the total overall price.

A Contractor without a record of relevant past performance or for whom information on past performance is not available will not be evaluated favorably or unfavorably on past performance, but will receive a neutral rating.

The Ombudsman Program for Agency Protests (OPAP) was established to investigate agency protest issues and resolve them without expensive and time-consuming litigation. OPAP is an independent reviewing authority that is empowered to grant a prevailing protester essentially the same relief as the Government Accountability Office (GAO). Interested parties are encouraged to seek resolution of their concerns within the USCG as an Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) forum, rather than filing a protest with the GAO or some external forum. Interested parties may seek resolution of their concerns informally or opt to file a formal agency protest with the contracting officer or Ombudsman.Informal forum with the Ombudsman. Interested parties who believe a specific USCG procurement is unfair or otherwise defective should first direct their concerns to the cognizant contracting officer. If the contracting officer is unable to satisfy the concerns, the interested party is encouraged to contact the USCG Ombudsman for Agency Protests. Under this informal process, the agency is not required to suspend contract award performance. Use of an informal forum does not suspend any time requirement for filing a protest with the agency or other forum. In order to ensure a timely response, interested parties should provide the following information to the Ombudsman: solicitation/contract number, contracting office, contracting officer, and solicitation closing date (if applicable).Formal Agency Protest with the Ombudsman. Prior to submitting a formal agency protest, protesters must first use their best efforts to resolve their concerns with the contracting officer tough open and frank discussions. If the protester's concerns are unresolved, an independent review is available by the Ombudsman. The protester may file a formal agency protest to either the contracting officer or as an alternative to that, the Ombudsman under the OPAP program. Contract award or performance will be suspended during the protest period unless contract award or performance is justified, in writing, for urgent and compelling reasons or is determined in writing to be in the best interest of the Government. The agency's goal is to resolve protests in less than 35 calendar days from the date of filing. Protests shall include the information set forth in FAR 33.103. If the protester fails to submit the required information, resolution of the protest may be delayed or the protest may be dismissed. This will not preclude re-filing of the protest to meet the requirement. To be timely, protests must be filed within the period specified in FAR 33.103(e). Formal protests filed under the OPAP program should be submitted to:Department of Homeland SecurityUnited States Coast Guard (CG-9131)Ombudsman Program for Agency Protests1900 Half Street, SW, Room 11-0602Washington, D.

For most cargoes, tank requires a complete secondary barrier.5.1.4.4.23 Motor Room: A gas-safe space adjacent to the compressor room or re-liquefaction equipment room containing electrical motors that drive cargo compressors and or re-liquefaction compressors. Generally separated from the gas-dangerous space by a single bulkhead and protected by positive-pressure ventilation from a gas-safe area, interlocks, and gas detection system.5.1.4.4.24 Primary Barrier: The primary containment system that contains liquid cargo during normal tank operations.5.1.4.4.25 Re-gasification: A process by which ship gasification system heats liquid cargo to either (1) provide gaseous product to tanks to prevent tank vacuum during cargo offloading or (2) provide large quantities of gaseous product for offloading directly to a pipeline.5.1.4.4.26Reid Vapor Pressure: Is the vapor pressure of a liquid at 100oF (37.8C).5.1.4.4.27 Safety Relief Valve: A relief valve specially designed and approved for use with Liquefied gas cargo tanks.5.1.4.4.28 Secondary Barrier: A secondary containment system that may contain liquid cargo in the event that the primary containment fails.5.1.4.4.29 Semi-Membrane Tank: A type of membrane tank that is essentially self-supporting when empty but not self-supporting when loaded.5.1.4.4.30 Tank Dome: The uppermost portion of the cargo tank, which protrudes tough the weather deck or tough the tank cover.
