For vendors who submit a quote at the close of the solicitation with the intention of performing the work requirements away from the Cutters homeport, foreseeable costs will added to the their total evaluated price if the distance from homeport is greater than 50 miles.

Factor 1: Past Performance

The past performance evaluation will take into account the guidelines outlined at FAR 15.305(a)(2)

Past Performance Evaluation. The Contractor’s past performance will be evaluated according to the following:

Past Performance Quality Ratings

Rating Description

Government’s benefit. The contractual performance of the element or sub-element being assessed was accomplished with few minor problems for which corrective actions taken by the contractor was highly effective.

Very Good Performance meets contractual requirements and exceeds some to the

Government's benefit. The element being assessed was accomplished with few minor problems for which corrective actions taken by the contractor were effective.

Satisfactory Performance meets contractual requirements. The element being assessed contains some minor problems for which corrective actions taken by the contractor appear or were satisfactory

Marginal Performance does not meet some contractual requirements. The element being assessed reflects a serious problem for which the contractor has not yet identified corrective actions

Past performance ratings for contracts that were completed more than three years before the date of the issuance of this solicitation are not considered recent and will not be evaluated. General trends in a Contractor’s performance will also be considered. Vendors lacking relevant past performance history will not be evaluated favorably or unfavorably on past performance, but will be assigned a Neutral rating.

Factor 2: Price

The total evaluated price of the offeror will be determined by totaling the proposed prices of all the

Definite and Option Items, plus the composite labor hour extended total, plus lay days, loading rate, temporary services during lay days, crane hours, forklift hours, oily waste offload, paint thinner and foreseeable costs. While Option Items, the composite labor hour rate, lay days, loading rate, crane hours, forklift hours, oily waste offload, and paint thinner are included in the total evaluated price, it is for evaluation purposes, and therefore may or may not ultimately be awarded during contract performance.
