E.1 SPECIFIC INSTRUCTIONS TO OFFERORS AND EVALUATION CRITERIA (AMENDMENT 0001)

The Contractor shall submit one (1) copy of their quote in electronic format (PDF or MS Word) via email to daniel.spaulding@va.gov by Wednesday, April 09, 2025, 05:30PM EST. A complete quote shall include the following four (4) sections listed below:

Section I – QUOTE: Form (Standard Form 1449) – original signature and completed Contract Administration Data; DUNS Number and Solicitation complete with acknowledgement of Solicitation Amendments. Offerors shall include their Accord Certificate of Insurance noting the insurance types and levels required by the solicitation. Offerors shall complete VAAR clause 852.219-75 VA NOTICE OF LIMITATIONS ON SUBCONTRACTING—CERTIFICATE OF COMPLIANCE FOR SERVICES AND CONSTRUCTION (JAN 2023), included in this solicitation. Offerors shall be Service-Disabled Veteran Owned Small Businesses (SDVOSBs) and shall be certified in the Small Business Administration’s (SBA) Dynamic Small Business Search (DSBS) database at time of offer submission and throughout the evaluation and award process.

Section II – PRICING: shall be submitted as requested in the Schedule of Supplies/Services comprised within the solicitation document listed in Section B of the SF1449 solicitation. Offerors are not required to submit detailed cost and pricing information with their initial quote beyond the overall price. Pricing shall be proposed for the quantities listed in the Schedule of Supplies/Service. Alterations to the Schedule of Supplies/Services wording, quantities or other will render the QUOTES non-responsive and ineligible for award. Pricing shall be FOB destination if shipping costs are applicable.

Section III - TECHNICAL CAPABILITY: Offerors shall submit a work plan that outlines the offeror’s resources, equipment and staffing to be utilized in meeting the requirements in the Performance Work Statement (PWS). The following subfactors will be evaluated in the technical evaluation:

· Experience with the required scope of work on other projects of the same or very similar scope. Offerors shall have a minimum of two (2) years’ prior experience in providing janitorial services to medical facilities.

· Work Plan: The offeror’s demonstration in its work plan that it has the resources, equipment and staffing necessary to meet all requirements outlined in the Performance Work Statement. Offeror’s work plans will be evaluated to confirm the offeror has in-house resources, equipment and staffing to perform the required work.

Section IV- PAST PERFORMANCE: A past performance submission is not required, but past performance will be evaluated through the use of the records available within the Contract Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS).

BASIS FOR AWARD:

The Government will select the one quote that represents the Lowest Priced Technically Acceptable Quote. A rating of “acceptable” or “unacceptable” will be assigned to each non-priced factor. The Government will evaluate price, technical, and past performance factors. A firm fixed-price contract will be awarded if the evaluation process identifies a quote suitable for award. The Government may request additional information through exchanges to support the evaluation process and decision making.

Factor 1: Price

Prices shall be submitted in accordance with the Price Schedule contained in the Solicitation. Total price will be evaluated by the Government. In evaluating the quoter’s proposed price for this project, the Government concern includes determining fairness and reasonableness of the price.

Reasonableness determinations will be made on the basis of competitive quotes received, by comparing proposed cost/price with established commercial prices, other contract vehicles, and/or by comparing prosed cost/price with the Independent Government Cost Estimate (ICGE). The ICGE is not releasable to the public.

Factor 2: Technical Capability

The evaluation process will consider whether the quote demonstrates a clear understating of the technical features involved in meeting the requirements of the solicitation. Offeror shall describe how all aspects of the PWS will be met. The following subfactors will be evaluated in the technical evaluation:

· Experience with the required scope of work on other projects of the same or very similar scope. Offerors shall have a minimum of two (2) years’ prior experience in providing janitorial services to medical facilities.

· Work Plan: The offeror’s demonstration in its work plan that it has the resources, equipment and staffing necessary to meet all requirements outlined in the Performance Work Statement. Offeror’s work plans will be evaluated to confirm the offeror has in-house resources, equipment and staffing to perform the required work.

Factor 3: Past Performance

Past performance information identified in the Contract Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS) will be utilized to determine the quality of the offeror’s past performance as it relates to the probability of success of the required effort. The Government will evaluate customer satisfaction, responsiveness to customer needs, and past demonstration of meeting delivery schedules and the delivery schedules and the delivery of services. Emphasis will be on recent, relevant past performance within the last three (3) calendar years. Recent is defined as work performed within the last three years. Relevant is defined as work similar in size and scope of the work described in the Statement of Work (SOW).

Quoters with no relevant past performance or whom information is not available, shall not be evaluated favorably or unfavorably on past performance.

System for Award Management: Federal Acquisition regulations require that federal contractors register in the System for Award Management (SAM) data base at http://www.sam.gov and enter all mandatory information into the system. Offerors shall have an active registration in the System for Award Management at the time of quote submission and shall maintain an active registration throughout the evaluation phase and contract award.
