Factor 2 – Price

1.) Vendor's price shall represent the best price in response to the RFQ. The price shall be evaluated to determine fairness and reasonableness. Vendors are required to provide prices for all items/CLINs in accordance with the Schedule of Supplies/Services.

1a.) Schedule of Supplies and Services:

a.) To be filled out with a cost associated for each Definite CLIN and Option(s) CLIN with an overall total submitted on an Excel spreadsheet.

b.) Options. The Government will evaluate offers for award purposes by adding the total price for all options to the total price for the basic requirement. The Government may determine that an offer is unacceptable if the option prices are significantly unbalanced. Evaluation of options shall not obligate the Government to exercise the option(s).

1.1 Price Reasonableness

Price analysis techniques may be used to further validate price reasonableness. If adequate price competition is not obtained or if price reasonableness cannot be determined using price analysis of Government obtained information, additional information will be required to support the proposed price.

1.2 TOTAL EVALUATED PRICE: The aggregate price determined by totaling the offer price for Definite Items, plus offer price for Option Items, plus foreseeable cost factors. Offeror's price shall represent the best price in response to the request for quotes. The price shall be evaluated to determine fairness and reasonableness.

Foreseeable cost factors: This work is to be performed within the continental United States, with a USCG provided transit distance no greater than 320 nautical miles / 368 statute miles location other than boat's homeport from the address of BUILDING 29 COAST GUARD YARD, BALTIMORE, MD 21226 as determined by the government:

1. An MLB's design limits its use to short transits. The asset and unit are not crewed for continuous steaming and is normally limited to daylight transits. Due to crewing and asset employment standards, 3 days transit is the limit of crew endurance under normal operating conditions. 8 hours of transit per day is the planning factor due to crew fatigue. MLB's have a maximum speed of 20 kts, however, environmental factors frequently limit average speed to less than maximum.

2. Foreseeable costs (crew lodging, messing, rental vehicles, fuel, and authorized crew travel in accordance with the Joint Travel Regulations) will be added to the pricing and will be an economic consideration for award."

In the event that the vendor providing the quote is OUTSIDE of 320 nautical miles / 368 statute miles as determined by the government:

The contractor will include the following in their proposal:

a. Planning document(s) (will include routes travelling, coordination made with city, state, federal transportation agencies)

b. Foreseeable costs (Crane rental, transportation to and from the vendor's facility and all applicable insurance) will be added to the pricing and will be an economic consideration for award. The offer will be evaluated to include foreseeable costs as follows:

(A) TRANSPORTATION COST:

(B) PER DIEM COST

(C) OPERATING COST:

Factor 3 - Past Performance

The Government will review the Vendor's Past Performance record in Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS) for those projects that are similar in nature, size and complexity as this requirement, performed or completed within the last two years. Contractor will provide three (3) awarded completed projects that are listed in CPARS for the Government to review.

In addition, the Government will also review responses to past performance questionnaires only if no record of past performance is available in CPARS.

Past Performance refers to the quality of recent project experience from the customer's perspective. The Offeror shall arrange for the reference customer point of contact for two projects to fill out the Past Performance Questionnaire included with this solicitation. Ensure the reference is clearly marked for the applicable Offeror when submitted. The Government will not release the questionnaire forms to the Offeror at any time, in order for the Government to solicit candid, unbiased responses and comments. These references must be relevant to the work which will be performed in this contract. Relevant work is defined as inspection, maintenance, repair/refit, testing, storage, and transportation services as detailed in the Specification.

References must be recent within the past three (3) years.

The Government will evaluate each of the three (3) CPARs records provided by the contractor or in lieu of CPARs record, each PPQ submitted by their customer. CPARs or PPQ ratings of "Satisfactory" or higher will be considered acceptable.

CPARs or PPQ ratings below "Satisfactory" will be considered unacceptable.

The following adjectival ratings will be assigned to the Past Performance:

RATING DESCRIPTION:

ADJECTIVAL RATING

DESCRIPTION

Acceptable

Past Performance record shows that the contractor received a rating of "Satisfactory" or above for each category rated.

Unacceptable

Past Performance record shows that the contractor received a rating below "Satisfactory" in one or more categories of their record, therefore does not meet the requirements.

Technical and past performance, when combined, are equal when compared to price.

(b) Options. The Government will evaluate offers for award purposes by adding the total price for all options to the total price for the basic requirement. The Government may determine that an offer is unacceptable if the option prices are significantly unbalanced. Evaluation of options shall not obligate the Government to exercise the option(s).

(c) A written notice of award or acceptance of an offer, mailed or otherwise furnished to the successful offeror within the time for acceptance specified in the offer, shall result in a binding contract without further action by either party. Before the offer's specified expiration time, the Government may accept an offer (or part of an offer), whether or not there are negotiations after its receipt, unless a written notice of withdrawal is received before award.

45661 ADDITONAL CONTRACT REQUIREMENTS

The Contractor shall make reasonable arrangements with the Government or Contractors of the Government, as shall have been identified and authorized by the Contracting Officer, to be given admission to the Contractor's facilities and access to the vessel(s) and to office space, work areas, storage or shop areas, or other facilities and services, necessary for the performance of their respective responsibilities and reasonable to their performance. All such above personnel shall be required to comply with all Contractor rules and regulations governing personnel at its shipyard, including those relative to safety and security.

(b) The Contractor further agrees, as authorized by the Contracting Officer, to afford to a reasonable number of officers, employees, and associates of bidders on other contemplated work, the same privileges of admission to the Contractor's plant and access to the vessel(s) on a noninterference basis subject to all Contractor rules and regulations governing personnel in its shipyard, including those relative to safety and security.

Contractor agrees to allow officers, employees, and associates of the Government, or other prime contractors with the Government and their subcontractors, and officers, employees, and associates of quoters on other contemplated work, admission to the Contractor's facilities and access to the vessel without any further request for indemnification from any party, which has not been previously included in the contract price.

(5) CONTRACTING OFFICER'S AUTHORITY

No oral or written statement of any person other than the Contracting Officer will in any manner or degree modify or otherwise affect the terms of this contract. The Contracting Officer is the only person authorized to approve changes in any of the requirements under this contract, and, notwithstanding any provisions contained elsewhere in this contract, said authority remains solely with the Contracting Officer. In the event the Contractor effects any such change at the direction of any person other than the Contracting Officer, the change will be considered to have been made without authority and no adjustment will be made in the contract price to cover any increase in cost incurred as a result thereof.

(6) INSPECTIONS

(7) MAINTAINING, REPORTING, AND DISPOSING OF GOVERNMENT PROPERTY IN THE PERFORMANCE OF A SHIP

REPAIR CONTRACT

1. The Government Property Clause incorporated by reference delineates the contractor's overall responsibility when taking possession of government property in performance of a contract. In performance of this contract the contractor will be required to properly identify, track and control property within its possession. This includes, a) property furnished by the government (GFP) to the contractor in conjunction with specific CLIN Items. These items and their values are listed in the specification, b) property that is pre-existing in a location that during the course of performance will be replaced or renewed.

2. The items listed in the specification, as government furnished property will be provided in the quantities designated.

Government furnished property may be provided in person by an official Coast Guard employee, shipment via commercial carrier, etc. The contractor shall sign for all government furnished property using either a DD Form 1149, entitled, "Requisition and Invoice/Shipping Document" or a DD Form 1348, entitled, "Issue Release/Receipt Document". A copy of the DD 1149 or DD 1348 must be sent within 48 hours of receipt of property, to the designated Government Property Administrator. The name of the individual assigned as Property Administrator will be furnished to the contractor at time of award. The contractor shall not take receipt of property that is not listed in the specification, has not been previously identified as becoming part of the contract (via contract modification) or which otherwise cannot be identified. Such irregularities shall be immediately reported to the Property Administrator.

3. The contractor shall complete the report provided herein, entitled, "Government Property Report". This report is intended as a living document whereby relevant fields shall be filled in, maintained and kept current at all times. All property described in paragraph 1 (a, and b) above shall be reported on the report. At contract completion the contractor and the Property Administrator shall ensure that all fields are appropriately completed.

A signature block is provided at the end of the report for both parties to attest to the report's accuracy and completeness. The Government Property Report shall clearly delineate the complete track that all government property took over the course of the contract. This completed report must accompany the contractor's final invoice. Final payment may be delayed, without penalty of interest, until such time as the report is received. A separate copy of the completed report and any final DD 1149s or DD 1348s executed, as a result of carrying out disposition instructions shall be provided to the Property Administrator.

4. Pursuant to the Government Property Clause the authority to render disposition instructions of Government property associated with this contract is delegated to the Property Administrator. The contractor shall comply with all instructions in the contract for the return of government property to the Coast Guard. This includes government property taken off the vessel (shafts, propellers, etc.), government property returned to the vessel (special tools, etc.) or surplus government property not used during performance of the contract.

The name and telephone number of the U.S. Coast Guard Inspector will be provided after the award of a contract resulting from this solicitation.

(8) GROWTH WORK

(a) The Contractor shall not perform growth work without the Contracting Officer's authorization. Growth work is work within the scope of the contract, which has not been previously priced as a pre-priced CLIN. The Contracting Officer reserves the right to contract for growth work on the basis of a negotiated, firm, fixed price, when it is in the best interest of the Government. If a firm-fixed price contract is awarded, and during the performance period a repair within scope is identified but the Contracting Officer and Contractor are unable to agree on the cost of the work, a bilateral modification may be incorporated into the contract using a Time and Materials modification for this specific repair. In this situation, FAR 52.212-4, Alternate I, (OCT 2018) will be incorporated.

(b) The Contractor shall furnish a price breakdown directly to the Contracting Officer, itemized as required by the Contracting Officer, of any proposal submitted for a contract modification. Unless otherwise directed, the breakdown shall be submitted on an MLCA 002 proposal form provided at the arrival conference permitting an analysis of all materials, labor, equipment, subcontract, overhead costs, and profit covering all work involved in the change/modification whether such work was deleted, added or changed. Any amount claimed for subcontracts shall be supported by a separate, similar price breakdown. If the proposal includes a request for a time extension, justification shall be furnished with the proposal.

(c) This clause is to be used in conjunction with the clause COMPOSITE LABOR RATE incorporated into this solicitation. The Contractor is required to have and/or furnish all tools and equipment incidental to each bench trade. Supplies such as wiping rags, hacksaw blades, sandpaper, welding wire, helium, etc., are also to be furnished by the contractor. Other materials are to be charged at regular rates and prices currently in effect and as agreed to by the Contracting Officer. Material shall be best commercial quality available except where a precise specification is indicated in which case the specification shall apply, e.g., MILSPEC, FEDERAL SPEC.

(9) COMPOSITE LABOR RATE:

The composite labor rate offered shall be the sole labor hour rate used to price the prime contractor's direct labor hours for contract changes, i.e. growth work. The contractor shall not receive any compensation in addition to this rate for the prime contractor's direct labor associated with such changes under this contract.

(a) The composite labor hour rate shall represent total compensation for the following:

(1) direct labor wages and salaries;

(2) all employee benefits including, but not limited to, paid leave, supplemental pay, insurance, retirement, savings, and legally required benefits;

(b) The composite labor hour rate will be applied to production labor hours only. Production labor hours include only those hours necessary and reasonable to perform direct production functions and do not include the hours expended on the support functions listed above. This exclusion of support function hours applies whether such support functions are normally charged directly or indirectly by the contractor's accounting system. These support functions are to be priced into the composite labor rate quoted and shall not be separately compensated.

(c) The Quantity of Composite Labor hours indicated in the Schedule of Supplies/Services, is only an estimate and is an Optional Item pursuant to this solicitation. The Estimated Quantity represents the Government's best estimate of the total number of additional hours that may be required throughout the contract. The Government may elect to exceed this value at the prices stated in the schedule and its discretion during performance of the contract. The inclusion of this item does not obligate the Government to exercise the item nor entitle the contractor to compensation if not exercised.

(10) METHOD OF PAYMENT AND INVOICING INSTRUCTIONS FOR SHIP REPAIR

The Government will make payment under this contract based on a percentage or stage of completion. The contractor may invoice each contract line item/CLIN as work progresses. The amount invoiced shall be calculated based on those prices stipulated in the contract Schedule of Supplies/Services as follows:

An item/CLIN may not be invoiced until the percentage complete reaches 25 percent. Future invoices for that item/CLIN have no limitation as to the percentage of completion required before invoicing. (The minimum percentage of completion (25%) to be reached prior to billing each item/CLIN may be waived by the Contracting Officer on a case by case basis for large dollar items/CLINS.)
