Factor 1: Technical Acceptability

Factor 2: Past Performance

Factor 3: Price

60 Figure 1 Radome Installation.

Factor 2: Past Performance

Past Performance will be evaluated to assess the confidence in the offeror’s ability to fulfill the solicitation requirements. The evaluation will consider the offeror’s demonstrated record of relevant past performance in performing the required services and will consider areas of quality, meeting delivery schedules, compliance with contractual requirements, and customer satisfaction.

Relevant is defined as performing radome repairs services as stated in the solicitation to other government and/or commercial entities.

If an offeror has no relevant past performance history, the offeror must affirmatively state that it possesses no relevant past performance history. If an offeror does not have a record of relevant past performance or past performance information is either unavailable or so sparse that no meaningful rating can be reasonably assigned, the offeror will receive a Neutral Confidence rating.

The Government intends to also use information available from past contracts/purchase orders with the USCG, delivery information found in USCG’s Asset Logistics Management Information

System (ALMIS), and any information found using sources such as Federal government sources, Past Performance Information Retrieval System (PPIRS)/Contractor Performance Assessment

Reporting System (CPARS).

Factor 3: Price

The preferred FOB point for shipments under this requirement is FOB destination. Proposals submitting FOB Origin terms should include all applicable customs, duties, taxes, and shipping charges. Any proposal providing FOB Origin terms that does not provide this information may be removed from consideration for award.

Prices will be evaluated to determine fair and reasonableness. The Government will evaluate prices for each contract period of performance including escalation rates between contract periods.

The Government may determine that a proposal is unacceptable if the option period prices are significantly unbalanced. Evaluation of options shall not obligate the Government to exercise the option.

It is DHS policy that pricing for competitive acquisitions should be based on adequate price competition.
