SECTION D – INSTRUCTIONS TO OFFERORS

SOLICITATION NO. 140D8021R0006 80

BIA BEMIDJI Single Engine Air Tanker (SEAT)

D11.4 The Government will give greater weight to its own experiences with the offeror (specifically DOI), if any, than it will give to reports obtained from others. Offerors with no relevant past or present performance history shall receive a Neutral rating.

D12 Total Evaluated Price (TEP)

D12.1. The Government will apply the rates/unit prices in acceptable offers, including out year unit prices, to the daily availability quantities identified in Section A. For the purpose of evaluating flight time, the estimates in Section A will be applied to the flight rates offered for each year. The totals for daily availability, flight time, extended daily availability, extended flight time, additional pay items, and the possible six (6)-month extension under FAR 52.217-8 will be added together to arrive at the TEP for each offeror. Once the total evaluated prices of all offers have been determined, the Government will then perform a tradeoff analysis, as described below in D13. The total evaluated price is for evaluation purposes only and does not become a contractually binding amount after contract award.

D12.2 The solicitation notified offerors that the award will include the Government’s unilateral option to extend performance for an additional period of up to six (6) months under FAR 52.217-8, during which time, the pricing and terms of the period in which the option was exercised shall apply. The Government cannot predict if or when the option may be exercised. Because any exercise of the Government’s option extends the pricing and terms of the period in which the option was exercised, the Government expressly and affirmatively evaluates pricing for the option to extend under FAR 52.217-8 co-extensive with the Government’s price evaluation for each exclusive use period of this award.

Because pricing for each period subject to possible extension under FAR 52.217-8 has been evaluated, pricing for any possible future use of that option to extend has, likewise, been evaluated and would apply in strict accordance with this evaluation in the event of the Government’s exercise of the option to extend services.

D12.3 The Government reserves the right to reject offers that have materially unbalanced availability and flight rates. An offer is materially unbalanced when it is based on prices significantly less than cost for some work and prices which are significantly overstated in relation to cost for other work, and there is a reasonable doubt that the offer will result in the lowest overall cost to the Government even though it may be the low evaluated offer, or if it is so unbalanced as to be tantamount to allowing an advance payment.

D13 Tradeoff Analysis and Contractor Selection

D13.1 The Contractor will be selected on the basis of the Government’s evaluation of the proposal against the evaluation factors set forth in the solicitation: Technical

Capability, Organizational Safety, Past Performance, and Total Evaluated Price.

D13.2 If one offer is best on all the factors, then that offer will be selected as being the best value to the Government. If no offer is best on all the factors, then the Government will consider the differences among offers and make tradeoffs in order to determine which offer is the best value. The Government will award the contract to the offer that has the best combination of Technical Capability, Organizational Safety, Past Performance, and Total Evaluated Price.
