KMRD Fire Cove Road Maintenance Page 2 of 13 addition, address hiring and providing services in locations not on a traditional road system.

b) FACTOR II – PAST PERFORMANCE. The Past Performance evaluation will be accomplished by reviewing aspects of an Offeror's recent and relevant Past Performance, focusing on and targeting performance which is relevant to the effort as it directly relates to the work being procured under this solicitation and as defined in Addendum to FAR 52.212-2 Evaluation – Commercial Items.

i) Past Performance information described herein is required on the offeror and all subcontractors, teaming partners, and/or joint venture partners proposed to perform 15% of the proposed effort based on the total proposed price.

ii) Relevant Past Performance. The offeror shall include documentation regarding their relevant past performance as it directly relates to the work being procured under this solicitation. The offeror SHALL NOT go back any farther than 3 years for the submitted data. The past performance data shall document a successful history of past contract performance.

(1) Submit a short narrative providing details of the experience the firm has

(either as a prime or sub-contractor) performing work similar in nature, scope, and geographical conditions. Offerors may include project photos or other information related to experience and capability – including contact information for each project. Proposals should describe your firm’s/crew’s experience with:

(a) Working for extended periods of time in cool, damp climates similar to environments found in Southeast Alaska, Northwestern Canada and Northwest Washington State.

(b) Working in remote locations.

iii) In conducting the Past Performance evaluation, the Government reserves the right to use both the information provided in the offeror’s Past Performance submission and information obtained from other sources, such as the Past Performance Information Retrieval System (PPIRS) or similar systems, The Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS) at https://www.cpars.gov, and commercial sources. Offerors are reminded that both independent data and data provided by offerors in their offers may be used by the Government to evaluate offeror past performance. However, the burden of providing thorough, complete, and current past performance information as requested in this paragraph remains with the offerors. Offers that do not contain the information requested by this paragraph risk receiving an unacceptable performance rating by the Government.

KMRD Fire Cove Road Maintenance Page 3 of 13 performance or for whom information on 2ast 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. Therefore, the offeror shall be determined to have unknown past performance. In the context of acceptability/unacceptability, “unknown” shall be considered “acceptable.”

iv) Submission Requirements. The offeror shall provide documentation outlining the offeror’s past performance with contracts, as a prime or major subcontractor, which is the same or similar in nature, size, and complexity to the services being procured under this Solicitation. The submittal shall include rationale supporting your assertion of relevance and how it was determined that the work performed previously was the same or similar in nature, size, and complexity to the work specified by this solicitation.

Raymond.Padgett@usda.gov no later than May 12, 2023 at 1:00 PM (AK). Offerors shall ensure offers are delivered into this inbox by the due date and time.

Emails should contain 3 separate attachments: Technical Proposal and Past Performance (in Microsoft Word or PDF format) and Price Proposal (in Microsoft Excel format).

52.212-2 Evaluation – Commercial Products and Commercial Services (NOV 2021)

1) The Government will award a Firm-Fixed Price contract resulting from this solicitation to the responsible offeror whose offer conforming to the solicitation will be most advantageous to the Government, price and other factors considered. The following factors shall be used to evaluate offers:

a) FACTOR I – Technical Capability

i) Sub-Factor 1 – Services Plan

b) FACTOR II – Past Performance

c) FACTOR III – Price

2) Options. The Government will evaluate offers for award purposes by adding the total price for all options to the total price for the basic requirement. The Government may determine that an offer is unacceptable if the option prices are significantly unbalanced. Evaluation of options shall not obligate the Government to exercise the option(s).

3) A written notice of award or acceptance of an offer, mailed or otherwise furnished to the successful offeror within the time for acceptance specified in the offer, shall result in a binding contract without further action by either party. Before the offer’s specified expiration time, the Government may accept an offer (or part of an offer), whether or not there are negotiations after its receipt, unless a written notice of withdrawal is received before award.

ADDENDUM to FAR Provision 52.212-2:

KMRD Fire Cove Road Maintenance Page 5 of 13

5) EVALUATION CRITERIA. Evaluation criteria consist of factors and sub-factors. The offers will be evaluated under three evaluation factors and three sub-factors.

a) FACTOR I – TECHNICAL CAPABILITY. The Government will evaluate the degree to which your proposal demonstrates capability to perform services required by the PWS; including the following criteria:

i) Sub-Factor 1 – Services Plan. To be determined acceptable the offeror shall provide a Services Plan to perform the tasks outlined in the attached PWS.

(a) Methods described, or combination of methods offeror plans to utilize to accomplish all work listed in the PWS.

(b) Address hiring and providing services in locations not on a traditional road system.

(1) Each technical capability sub-factor will receive one of the adjectival ratings defined below. To receive an acceptable rating for this factor, all sub-factors must be rated acceptable.

Table A-1. Technically Acceptable/Unacceptable Ratings

Rating Description Acceptable Offer clearly meets the minimum requirements of the solicitation.

Unacceptable Offer does not clearly meet the minimum requirements of the solicitation.

b) FACTOR II – PAST PERFORMANCE. The Past Performance evaluation will assess the relative risks associated with an offeror’s likelihood of success in performing the solicitation’s requirements as indicated by that offeror’s record of past performance. Performance risk is assessed at the factor level after evaluating aspects of the offeror’s recent past performance and focusing on performance that is relevant to the services being procured under this solicitation.

Past performance areas of evaluation include quality of service, timeliness of performance, business practices, customer satisfaction, and personnel.

i) Recency Assessment. An assessment of the past performance information will be made to determine if it is recent. To be recent, the effort must be ongoing or must have been performed during the past 3 years from the date of issuance of this solicitation. Past performance information that fails this condition will not be evaluated.

ii) Relevancy Assessment. To be relevant, the effort must be of similar nature in work, size, magnitude, complexity, and scope. The Government will conduct an in-depth evaluation of all recent performance information obtained to

KMRD Fire Cove Road Maintenance Page 6 of 13 determine if it is the same or similar in nature, size, and complexity to the services/products being procured under this solicitation.

(1) Assigning Ratings. The Past Performance Factor will be assigned one of the ratings defined below. An award will not be made to any offeror who receives an “Unacceptable” past performance rating.

(2) Offerors 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, will not be evaluated favorably or unfavorably on past performance. Therefore, the offeror shall be determined to have unknown past performance. In the context of acceptability/unacceptability, “unknown” shall be considered “acceptable.”

c) FACTOR III – PRICE. Price is not formally scored but is the primary evaluation factor for determining award. The government expects competitive offers to be submitted for this procurement and will use these competitive offers to determine price reasonableness. If competitive offers are not received, the Government reserves the right to utilize other methods identified in the FAR to determine price reasonableness.

i) Completeness. Each offeror is required to provide a complete pricing for each contract line identified.

ii) The Government will evaluate offers for award purposes by adding the total price for all options to the total price for the basic requirement. Evaluation of options shall not obligate the Government to exercise the options(s).

iii) The Government will evaluate the option contained in clause 52.217-8 –

Option to Extend Services by adding to the total price one half the amount of the final year's option price (base year if no options). Evaluation of this option shall not obligate the Government to exercise this option. The offeror shall not include pricing for this option period on their offer.

Table A-2. Relevant Past Performance Evaluation Ratings Rating Description

Acceptable 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.

Unacceptable 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.

KMRD Fire Cove Road Maintenance Page 7 of 13

iv) Definitions.

Items/Price Schedule contained/attached within the solicitation.
