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.

Unsatisfactory

Performance does not meet most contractual requirements and recovery is not likely in a timely manner. The element being assessed contains a serious problem(s) for which the contractor's corrective actions appear or were ineffective.

Neutral

The offeror has no past performance history OR the Contracting Officer has determined that the past performance information provided is not directly related or similar to the requirements in the RFP.

In evaluating Contractor's past performance, the government intends to also review U.S. Government Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS) and other existing past performance ratings on relevant contracts. For purposes of this solicitation, "relevant contracts" are defined as contracts performed in which the contractor was the prime contractor performing construction, overhaul, repair and alteration of similarly sized ships/vessels. 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 III: 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.

(1) DEFINITE ITEMS: These are the items, which, if there is an award at all, will be awarded. The bid shall be evaluated to include the price for each definite item.

(2) OPTION ITEMS: These are the items, which, if there is an award at all, may be awarded upon completion of open and inspect, or if additional funds become available, of if they are needed. The offer shall be evaluated to include the price for each option item.

(3) COMPOSITE LABOR HOUR RATE: The offer shall be evaluated to include the offer price for the Composite Labor Hour Rate multiplied by the estimated quantity of hours.

(4) LAY DAYS: A lay day is defined as an additional day on a dry dock or marine railway caused by a government issued change. The Contracting Officer will evaluate the daily rate for lay days multiplied by the estimated quantity of lay days as stated in the offeror's Schedule of Services/Supplies.

(5) FORESEEABLE COSTS: The Contracting Officer will evaluate certain foreseeable costs that will vary with the location of the commercial shipyard to be used by bidders/offerors under this solicitation. Costs will be calculated based on the bidder's/offeror's shipyard location and these costs will be added, for the purposes of evaluation only, to the bidder's/offeror's overall price.

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. Award may be made without any type of discussions or negotiations. The Government reserves the right to award to other than the lowest-priced offeror.

The Offeror must also submit the following detailed information to support the pricing offer if requested, in addition to completing Schedule B of the solicitation. Note: The following information in this paragraph may not be requested and is NOT being requested at this time.
