Plumbing Repairs, Phoenix Rearing Facility Solicitation 12639526Q0197, Amendment 1

Generally, price reasonableness may be determined based on adequate competition. However, in evaluating price reasonableness, the contracting officer may consider other information as necessary to establish a fair and reasonable price. Your pricing must include a complete breakdown of the key elements making up your lump-sum price. This allows us to evaluate for price realism and analyze your understanding of the contract requirements and/or assess the risk inherent in your proposal. This evaluation technique determines if price submissions:

(1) Are realistic for the work to be performed

(2) Reflect a clear understanding of the requirements, and

(3) Are consistent with the various elements of the offeror’s technical proposal. Contractor submissions that are either too low or too high will be deemed unreasonable or incorporating too much risk for the government to accept.

Technical capability

— Relevant experience of the quoter to meet the government requirement, i.e., relevant experience with plumbing projects of this size and scope or similar.

— Technical Approach. Quoters must provide a specific narrative that describes the intended technical approach to executing this construction per the statement of work—attachment 1. The narrative must clearly and concisely describe the technical approach to project management, quality control, safety, and execution. Responses restating requirements identified in the SOW are not acceptable. Specifically, the narrative must address and thereby demonstrate the offeror’s understanding of the following elements (at a minimum), specifically related to this project:

o Work sequencing, to include significant milestones.

o Identification of critical project activities based on the project scope.

Past Performance

Past performance is a measure of the degree to which an offeror has satisfied customers in the past, and complied with federal, state, and local laws and regulations. The assessment of past performance will be subjective and based mainly on offeror reputations with customers and adherence to schedules. The Government may evaluate the performance data provided by offerors or obtained from other sources. Past performance assessments may be based on information such as the contracting officer’s and evaluator’s knowledge of previous experience with the supply or service being acquired, customer surveys, or other reasonable basis. The assessment will consider the contractor’s record of conforming to specifications, and to standards of good workmanship/customer service. In addition, adherence to contract schedules, including the administrative aspects of performance, will be taken into consideration. The currency and relevance of the information, source of the information, context of the data, and general trends in contractor’s performance shall be considered. References must include:

• Contract number and price

• Project title or name

• Location

• Award and completion dates

• Name, phone, and email address of the contact person familiar with the project
