The following factors shall be used to evaluate offers: The award will be made to the contractor whose price is the lowest of all offers determined to be technically qualified of performing the required service in accordance with FAR Part 12 Acquisition of Commercial Items. Technically qualified is defined as meeting the minimum requirements in Technical, Past Performance and Price as listed below. No trade-offs are made. To receive consideration for an award, the offer must NOT receive an “unacceptable” rating for non-price factors.

https://sam.gov/

The Government may make an award based on initial offers received without discussions with offerors. Accordingly, each offer should be submitted in a completed form, without exception to any requirements. Failure to submit mandatory information for a factor will ne ineligible for award. It is incumbent upon the offeror to submit sufficient information for the Government to determine technical acceptability, successful and satisfactory past performance and price. Failure to submit sufficient information for the government to determine technical acceptability, past performance or price may be cause for rejection of your quote. The Government will award a contract resulting from this solicitation to the responsible offeror whose offer conforming to the solicitation factors shall be used to evaluate offers:

1.PRICE:

a. Offerors SHALL complete and submit the price schedule with their proposal and include a price for each line item. Failure to do so will result in the offer being rejected without further consideration.

b. The Contracting Officer will evaluate each offeror’s price in accordance with FAR 12.209 to determine price reasonableness. In this context, reasonableness will be determined by comparing offered prices to one another, to the Government estimate and to pricing for previous work of a similar nature.

2. TECHNICAL CAPABILITY

a. The Offeror SHALL submit evidence of the capability to meet the minimum requirements as specified in this solicitation and the attached performance work statement (See Attachments). The offeror SHALL provide sufficient documentation of their technical capability, such as experience of the company and/or the key personnel and crew who will be performing the work, resumes, equipment lists, etc. or other information to enable the Government to determine the company’s capability on projects of similar type, size, scope and complexity. The preferred method of evaluating Technical Capability is the attached Technical Capability Statement.

b. The Technical Capability factor SHALL receive an adjectival rating based on the assessed strengths and inadequacies of each offer as they relate to the Technical Capability.

Technical rating with details descriptions is show in the table below:

TECHNICAL RATING Description ACCEPTABLE Quote clearly meets the minimum technical capability of the performance work statement.

UNACCEPTABLE Quote does not clearly meet the minimum technical capability of the performance work statement.

3. PAST PERFORMANCE: To demonstrate satisfactory past performance the offeror SHALL provide documentation of satisfactory performance on past or current contracts of a similar type, size, scope and complexity, performed within the last three (3) years including references, with names and contact information of the references who can verify such past performance. Past performance information of key personnel may be provided if the company has limited or no past performance. See Relevant Experience/Past Performance Questionnaire – Attachment 3

Using the questionnaires, the contracting officer will review relevant performance information based on the past and present efforts provided by the offeror, and data independently obtained from other government and commercial sources. Past performance must be recent and relevant. The offeror is demonstrating acceptable past performance rests with the offeror.

Recent past performance must include performance that occurred within three (3) years of solicitation issuance date.

Relevant performance includes performances of efforts involving janitorial services similar to the dollar value and complexity of this solicitation.

PAST PERFORMANCE RATING

ACCEPTABLE Based on the offeror’s performance record, the

Government has a reasonable expectation that the offeror will successfully perform the required effort.

UNACCEPTABLE Based on the offeror’s performance record, the Government has some doubtfulness that the offeror will be able to successfully perform the required effort.

(b) 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).

(c) 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.
