Within the first seven (7) calendar days of the comment period, the contractor representative may request a meeting with the AO to discuss the evaluation report. The AO may complete the evaluation without the contractor representative’s comments if none are provided within the fourteen (14) day comment period. Any disagreement between the AO/CO and the contractor representative regarding the performance evaluation report will be referred to the Reviewing Official (RO) within the division/branch the AO is assigned. Once the RO completes the review, the evaluation is considered complete and the decision is final.

Copies of the evaluations, contractor responses, and review comments, if any, will be retained as part of the contract file and may be used in future award decisions.

B. Designated Contractor Representative The contractor must identify a primary representative for this contract and provide the full name, title, phone number, email address, and business address to the CO within 30 days after award.

C. Electronic Access to Contractor Performance Evaluations The AO will request CPARS user access for the contractor by forwarding the contractor’s primary and alternate representatives’ information to the CPARS Focal Point (FP).

The FP is responsible for CPARS access authorizations for Government and contractor personnel. The FP will set up the user accounts and will create system access to CPARS.

The CPARS application will send an automatic notification to users when CPARS access is granted. In addition, contractor representatives will receive an automated email from CPARS when an evaluation report has been completed.

II.21 HOLIDAYS AND ADMINISTRATIVE LEAVE (MAR 2003)

U.S. Customs & Border Protection (CBP) personnel observe the following days as holidays:

New Year’s Day Labor Day Martin Luther King’s Birthday Columbus Day President’s Day Veteran’s Day Memorial Day Thanksgiving Day Independence Day Christmas Day

Any other day designated by Federal statute, by Executive Order or by the President's proclamation.

When any such day falls on a Saturday, the preceding Friday is observed. When any such day falls on a Sunday, the following Monday is observed. Observance of such days by Government personnel shall not be cause for an extension to the delivery schedule or period of performance or adjustment to the price, except as set forth in the contract.

Except for designated around-the-clock or emergency operations, contractor personnel will not be able to perform on site under this contract with CBP on holidays set forth above. The contractor will not charge any holiday as a direct charge to the contract. In the event Contractor personnel work during a holiday other than those above, no form of holiday or other premium compensation will be reimbursed as either a direct or indirect cost. However, this does not preclude reimbursement for authorized overtime work.

In the event CBP grants administrative leave to its Government employees, at the site, on-site contractor personnel shall also be dismissed if the site is being closed. However, the Contractor shall continue to provide sufficient personnel to perform around-the-clock requirements of critical efforts already in progress or scheduled and shall be guided by the instructions issued by the Contracting Officer or her/his duly appointed representative. In each instance when the site is closed to Contractor personnel as a result of inclement weather, potentially hazardous conditions, explosions, or other special circumstances; the Contractor will direct its staff as necessary to take actions such as reporting to its own site(s) or taking appropriate leave consistent with its policies. The cost of salaries and wages to the Contractor for the period of any such site closure are a reimbursable item of direct cost under the contract for employees whose regular time is normally a direct charge if they continue to perform contract work; otherwise, costs incurred because of site closure are reimbursable as indirect cost in accordance with the Contractor's established accounting policy.

(End of provision)

III.7 52.212-2 EVALUATION--COMMERCIAL ITEMS (OCT 2014)

(a) (1)The Government intends to award a contract resulting from this solicitation to the responsible offeror(s) whose proposal(s) represents the best value from the selection of the technically acceptable proposal with the lowest evaluated price. Award will be made on the basis of the lowest evaluated price of proposals meeting the acceptability standards for non-price factors. Proposals will be evaluated for acceptability but will not be ranked using the non-price factors.

(2) The Government may reject any or all proposals if such action is in the Government’s interest.

(3) The Government intends to evaluate proposals and award on initial proposals. Therefore, the offeror’s initial proposal shall contain the offeror’s best price. If multiple line items are priced, each line item will be evaluated to ensure that balanced (options) pricing exists.

(4) A written award or acceptance of proposal mailed or otherwise furnished to the successful offeror within the time specified in the proposal shall result in a binding contract without further action by either party.

The Government will evaluate all technical proposals on an acceptable/unacceptable basis to determine all offers that meet the minimum technically acceptable requirements. Failure to meet a requirement may result in an offeror being determined technically unacceptable. The below listed non-price factors will be evaluated as follows:

1.Technical 2.Past Performance 3.Price

(5) Price is the most important factor. The non-cost factors when combined are less important than price.

(b) Lowest Price Technically Acceptable Evaluation Process

(1) The Government will evaluate all technical proposals on a acceptable/unacceptable basis to determine all offers that meet the minimum technically acceptable requirements. Failure to meet a requirement may result in an offer being determined technically unacceptable. Any costs incurred by offerors in preparing or submitting offers are the offerors' sole responsibility; CBP will not reimburse any offeror for any proposal preparation costs.

https://www.sam.gov/

(2) Award will be made on the basis of the lowest evaluated price of proposals meeting the acceptability standards for non-price factors.

(3) The non-price factors will be evaluated for acceptability

(c) EVALUATION FACTORS

Factor 1 Technical Factor 2 Past Performance Factor 3 Price

1. Evaluation Factor 1 - Technical

Contractor must provide technical proposal that states how the company will meet the requirements in the Statement of Work. Document must not be longer than five (5) pages. Must be in Word or PDF format.

Technical Acceptability Criteria Acceptable Proposal clearly meets the minimum requirements of the solicitation

Unacceptable Proposal does not clearly meet the minimum requirements of the solicitation

2. Evaluation Factor 2 - Past Performance

Past Performance Acceptable Past Performance clearly represents similar scope and dollar value as those referenced in this solicitation

Unacceptable Past Performance does not clearly represents similar scope and dollar value as those referenced in this solicitation

Neutral No Past Performance

3. Factor 3 Price

There is no adjectival rating for Factor 3 Price.

Price Reasonableness

The proposed prices will be evaluated for reasonableness. Price reasonableness determines whether an Offeror’s price is too high. Analysis of price proposals will be performed using one or more of the techniques defined in FAR 15.404 in order to determine price reasonableness. Normally, price reasonableness is established through adequate price competition, but may also be determined through price analysis techniques as described in FAR 15.404-1.

Unbalanced Prices

Offers must include balanced prices. Unbalanced pricing may increase performance risk and could result in payment of unreasonably high prices. Unbalanced pricing exists when, despite an acceptable total evaluated price, the price of one or more contract line items is significantly over or understated as indicated by the application of price analysis techniques. All offers with separately priced line items shall be analyzed to determine if the prices are unbalanced. If price analysis techniques indicate that an offer is unbalanced, the contracting officer shall: (i) Consider the risks to the Government associated with the unbalanced pricing in the source selection decision; and (ii) Consider whether award of the contract will result in paying unreasonably high prices for contract performance. An offer may be rejected if the contracting officer determines that the lack of balance poses an unacceptable risk to the Government.

Total Evaluated Price

The Government will evaluate offers for award purposes by adding the total price for all options to the total price for the basic requirement. Evaluation of options will not obligate the Government to exercise the option(s). Total Evaluated Price shall be calculated using the prices indicated in the Price Proposal.
