• Prospective Contractors shall assume that the government “has no prior knowledge” of their capabilities and experience and will base its evaluation on the information presented in each quote.

The quote may be determined nonresponsive and removed from further consideration.

• Price.

The contractor shall submit an all-inclusive firm fixed price quote in response to this solicitation. All-inclusive is defined as all costs/expenses which include but are not limited to Federal/State/Local Taxes, TERO fees, Delivery, Shipping & Handling, Goods, Service, Labor, and all other fees necessary to complete the work.

• Contractor Capability. Prospective contractors must demonstrate sufficient resources to fulfill the contract or the ability to acquire them.

Sufficient experience is considered to be at least one year of successful contract performance. The information shall include a brief description of the service provided, length of time, and location.

52.212-2 Evaluation—Commercial Products and Commercial Services. (Nov 2021) (Deviation Mar 2026) Evaluation factors. The Government will award a contract resulting from this solicitation to the responsible Contractor whose quote conforming to the solicitation will be most advantageous to the Government, price and other factors considered.

Quotes will undergo a comparative evaluation to determine which quote provides the best value for the Government.

The government reserves the right to select a quote other than the lowest priced quote, if the benefits justify the additional cost. Selection for award is not based on price alone.

The Government intends to make an award without engaging in discussions or negotiations; therefore, quoters should ensure their initial submission presents optimal technical and pricing terms. The Government retains the discretion to clarify elements of any quote and may elect not to award a contract, subject to the quality of submissions and available funding.

The following factors shall be used to evaluate quotes:

Experience The quote will be evaluated based on the contractor’s demonstrated experience in delivering services that are identical or closely aligned with the requirements specified in this solicitation. Such experience illustrates the contractor’s capacity to meet the responsibilities defined within the scope of work.

Capability Key personnel constitute a critical resource for achieving successful contractor performance; consequently, the contractor's capability will be assessed. Evidence of a formal arrangement or agreement between the Contractor and key personnel—contingent upon award—will be evaluated to determine the contractor’s ability to deploy qualified staff promptly following contract award. The ability to retain key personnel will be assessed to include length of commitment time.

Key Personnel Quotes will be evaluated to ascertain the Contractor’s capacity to supply key personnel who meet the qualifications, possess relevant experience, and demonstrate capability as outlined in Section D - Statement of Work, and Section E

- Instructions.

Price The quotation will be assessed to determine its fairness and reasonableness.

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

52.233-2 Service of Protest Department of the Interior (JUL 1996) (Deviation)

1452.215-71 Use and Disclosure of Proposal Information - Department of the Interior Apr 1984

(a) Definitions. For the purposes of this provision and the Freedom of Information Act (5 U.S.C. 552), the following terms shall have the meaning set forth below:

(1) “Trade Secret” means an unpatented, secret, commercially valuable plan, appliance, formula, or process, which is used for making, preparing, compounding, treating or processing articles or materials which are trade commodities.

(2) “Confidential commercial or financial information” means any business information (other than trade secrets) which is exempt from the mandatory disclosure requirement of the Freedom of Information Act, 5 U.S.C. 552. Exemptions from mandatory disclosure which may be applicable to business information contained in proposals include exemption (4), which covers “commercial and financial information obtained from a person and privileged or confidential,” and exemption (9), which covers “geological and geophysical information, including maps, concerning wells.”

(b) If the offeror, or its subcontractor(s), believes that the proposal contains trade secrets or confidential commercial or financial information exempt from disclosure under the Freedom of Information Act, (5 U.S.C. 552), the cover page of each copy of the proposal shall be marked with the following legend:

“The information specifically identified on pages ____________ of this proposal constitutes trade secrets or confidential commercial and financial information which the offeror believes to be exempt from disclosure under the Freedom of Information Act. The offeror requests that this information not be disclosed to the public, except as may be required by law. The offeror also requests that this information not be used in whole or part by the government for any purpose other than to evaluate the proposal, except that if a contract is awarded to the offeror as a result of or in connection with the submission of the proposal, the Government shall have the right to use the information to the extent provided in the contract.”

(c) The offeror shall also specifically identify trade secret information and confidential commercial and financial information on the pages of the proposal on which it appears and shall mark each such page with the following legend:

“This page contains trade secrets or confidential commercial and financial information which the offeror believes to be exempt from disclosure under the Freedom of Information Act and which is subject to the legend contained on the cover page of this proposal.”

(d) Information in a proposal identified by an offeror as trade secret information or confidential commercial and financial information shall be used by the Government only for the purpose of evaluating the proposal, except that (i) if a contract is awarded to the offeror as a result of or in connection with submission of the proposal, the Government shall have the right to use the information as provided in the contract, and (ii) if the same information is obtained from another source without restriction it may be used without restriction.

(e) If a request under the Freedom of Information Act seeks access to information in a proposal identified as trade secret information or confidential commercial and financial information, full consideration will be given to the offeror's view that the information constitutes trade secrets or confidential commercial or financial information. The offeror will also be promptly notified of the request and given an opportunity to provide additional evidence and argument in support of its position, unless it is administratively unfeasible to do so. If it is determined that information claimed by the offeror to be trade secret information or confidential commercial or financial information is not exempt from disclosure under the Freedom of Information Act, the offeror will be notified of this determination prior to disclosure of the information.

(f) The Government assumes no liability for the disclosure or use of information contained in a proposal if not marked in accordance with paragraphs (b) and (c) of this provision. If a request under the Freedom of Information Act is made for information in a proposal not marked in accordance with paragraphs (b) and (c) of this provision, the offeror concerned shall be promptly notified of the request and given an opportunity to provide its position to the Government. However, failure of an offeror to mark information contained in a proposal as trade secret information or confidential commercial or financial information will be treated by the Government as evidence that the information is not exempt from disclosure under the Freedom of Information Act, absent a showing that the failure to mark was due to unusual or extenuating circumstances, such as a showing that the offeror had intended to mark, but that markings were omitted from the offeror's proposal due to clerical error.

(End of provision)
