SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS

(a) General Instructions

(1) Electronic Submissions: Contractors must email their quote to Larry Facio at Larry.Facio@va.gov. Include the solicitation number in the Subject line. Any attachments must be readable using Microsoft Office or Adobe PDF. The size of the email is limited to 5 megabytes (MB) but multiple emails are allowable. Quotes must be submitted electronically and will not be accepted through fax or postal mail.

(2) All questions regarding this solicitation must be emailed to Larry.Facio@va.gov no later than three business days prior to the quote due date. Verbal inquiries or questions will not be addressed or accepted.

(3) The quote must be prepared in two parts consisting of a "Technical Approach" and separate section for "Pricing Information". Each of the parts shall be separate and complete so that evaluation of each part can be accomplished independently.

(b) Selection Process

(1) Evaluations will be conducted under the procedures of FAR Part 13.

(2) In accordance with FAR 13.106-2(b)(3), the quotes will undergo a comparative evaluation to determine which vendor provides the best value to the government in terms of high technical capability and past performance, while also providing a competitive price.

(c) Technical Approach

(1) The technical approach must not contain any references to pricing. Resource information such as data concerning labor hours and categories, equipment, materials, subcontracts, should be included in so that contractor’s understanding of the Scope of Work may be evaluated; however, any reference to pricing must not be included.

This is not intended to be an overly burdensome task and can be accomplished by a simple heading indicating which element is being addressed followed by the supporting information. The Government will not sift through several pages of a technical approach document trying to determine which element is being addressed. The Government is not requesting boilerplate technical approaches that have been prepared for a wide variety of Government solicitations.
