SECTION M

EVALUATION FACTORS FOR AWARD

M.1 Basis for Award

PAGE 7 OF 9 1333ND26RNB1900330003

EVALUATION FACTORS FOR AWARD

1. BASIS FOR AWARD:

a. The Contracting Officer intends to award a Firm Fixed-Price (FFP) contract to the responsible Offeror whose proposal the Contracting Officer determines represents the best value, price and other factors considered.

2. EVALUATION

a. Relative Importance of Evaluation Factors:

i. The evaluation factors include: Factor 1 – Technical Approach and Compliance, Factor 2 –

Preliminary Schedule, Factor 3 – Past Performance, and Factor 4 - Price. The non-price factors are Factors 1, 2, and 3. Factors 1 and 2 are relatively equal, and when combined more important than Factor 3. All non-price factors (1 – 3) when combined are more importance than Factor 4 (price factor).

ii. The Contracting Officer intends to award a contract to the Offeror whose proposal they determine represents a technically acceptable and fair, and reasonable price, and best value to the government.

The Contracting Officer reserves the right to make no award.

b. Factor 1 – Technical Approach and Compliance

Evaluation of this factor is a subjective evaluation of the Offeror’s understanding of the solicitation requirements (clauses, provisions, and the SOWs) and demonstrates ability to meet contract requirements and SOWs based on the offeror’s proposed technical approach. A technical proposal that demonstrates a thorough understanding of all solicitation and project requirements will be rated higher than a proposal that does not clearly detail an approach, does not adequately address all aspects of the solicitation and project, and/or does not demonstrate the offeror’s technical capability to perform the work. Offerors must demonstrate the ability to mobilize and commence work within 10 calendar days of notice to proceed. This may include evidence of current operations, personnel availability, or other resources sufficient to perform the work in the project location. Additionally, if the Contracting Officer determines a technical proposal is primarily a copy and paste version of a SOW and solicitation requirements it may be removed from any further consideration for award.

c. Factor 2 – Preliminary Schedule Evaluation of this factor is a subjective evaluation of the Offeror’s understanding of the work. A schedule offering a shorter period of performance while demonstrating understanding of the requirements of the statement of work may receive a higher rating. The schedule will be evaluated in terms of completeness, timeliness of completion, and to ensure it presents a thorough understanding of the work required.

d. Factor 3 – Past Performance Evaluation of this factor is a subjective evaluation and will assess the relative risks associated with an Offeror’s likelihood of success in fulfilling the solicitation requirements as indicated by the Offeror’s record of past performance. In the absence of past performance the Offeror shall be rated as neutral in rating.

e. Factor 4 – Price Price will be evaluated based on the total price. The Government has requested, and shall evaluate, each Offeror’s detailed cost breakdown to determine the reasonableness and completeness of the price proposals.

The Government will not conduct price realism as a part of price evaluation. One or more of the following techniques will be used to ensure a fair and reasonable price:

i. Comparison of proposed prices/costs received in response to the solicitation.

ii. Comparison of proposed prices/costs with the Independent Government Estimate.

iii. Comparison of proposed prices/costs with available historical information.

f. Adjectival Ratings

The following adjectival ratings will be used to evaluate timely received Offeror’s submissions in response to this solicitation:

PAGE 8 OF 9 1333ND26RNB1900330003

Adjectival Rating Description

Excellent (E) Proposal meets requirements and indicates an exceptional approach and understanding of the requirements.

Good (G)

Proposal meets requirements and indicates a thorough approach and understanding of the requirements. Proposal contains strengths which outweigh any weaknesses. The quote includes strengths that will benefit the Government. And identified weakness has little potential to cause disruption of schedule or degradation of performance. Risk of unsuccessful performance is low.

Satisfactory (S)

Proposal meets requirements and indicates an adequate approach and understanding of the requirements. Strengths and weaknesses are offsetting or will have little or no impact on contract performance. The proposal has no deficiencies but may include some weaknesses that can potentially cause disruption of schedules or degradation of performance. Risk of unsuccessful performance is no worse than moderate.

Marginal (M)

Proposal has not demonstrated an adequate approach and understanding of the requirements. The proposal has one or more weaknesses which are not offset by strengths. The proposal has some weakness the will likely cause disruption of schedules or degradation of performance. Risk of unsuccessful performance is high.

Unacceptable (U) Proposal does not meet requirements. Weaknesses may outweigh strengths or quote contains one or more deficiencies. The proposal presents an unacceptable risk and cannot meet the requirements without revisions. Proposal is unawardable.
