3. BASIS OF EVALUATION

Evaluation of this factor is a subjective evaluation of the vendor's demonstrated resources, capability and methods to meet all requirements.

PAGE 5 OF 30 1333ND21QNB680514

COMBINED SYNOPSIS/SOLICITATION 1333ND21QNB680514 CLOSED-CYCLE FLOW CRYOSTAT SYSTEMS 4 of 12

This factor will be evaluated to determine whether the vendor understands the delivery / performance schedule requirements and whether the vendor is capable of meeting the required delivery / performance schedule per the request for quotations. The Government may assess an earlier delivery / performance schedule as more favorable and added value to the Government (Sooner may be determined better).

FACTOR C – EXPERIENCE:

1. The EXPERIENCE is defined as the vendor's proposed solution(s) to fulfill the contract requirements successfully.

The Government may review the past performance of a Joint Venture (JV) member that will perform under the contract irrespective of whether the past performance is from contract performance while a member of another JV, as a sub-contractor, any other teaming relationship, or in an individual corporate capacity. While the Government may elect to consider data from other sources, the burden of providing detailed, current, accurate, and complete past performance information rests with the Offeror.

f) Failure to provide a POC that is accessible or failure to provide a correct, current phone number, fax number, and email address on any past performance information may result in a lower rating for this factor or lack of consideration of the past performance.
