Indian means a person who is a member of an Indian Tribe or "Native" as defined in the Alaska Native Claims Settlement Act (PL 92-203; 85 Stat. 688; 43 U.S.C. 1601).

Indian Economic Enterprise means any business activity owned by one or more Indians or Indian Tribes that is established for the purpose of profit, provided that:

(i) The combined Indian or Indian Tribe ownership shall constitute not less than 51 percent of the enterprise; (ii) the Indians or Indian Tribes shall, together, receive at least a majority of the earnings from the contract;

and (iii) the management and daily business operations of an Indian economic enterprise must be controlled by one or more individuals who are members of an Indian Tribe. To ensure actual control over the enterprise, the individuals must possess requisite management or technical capabilities directly related to the primary industry in which the enterprise conducts business. The enterprise must meet these requirements throughout the following time periods:

(1) At the time an offer is made in response to a written solicitation;

(2) At the time of contract award;

and,

(3) During the full term of the contract.

Indian Tribe means an Indian Tribe, band, nation, or other recognized group or community which is recognized as eligible for the special programs and services provided by the United States to Indians because of their status as Indians, including any Alaska Native village, regional or village corporation established under the Alaska Native Claims Settlement Act (PL 92-203, 85 Stat. 688; 43 U.S.C. 1601).

Representation means the positive statement by an enterprise of its eligibility for preferential consideration and participation for acquisitions conducted under the Buy Indian Act, 25 U.S.C. 47, in accordance with the procedures in Subpart 1480.8.

(b) General.

(1) Under the Buy Indian Act, offers are solicited only from Indian economic enterprises.

(2) BIA will reject all offers received from ineligible enterprises.

(3) Any award resulting from this solicitation will be made to an Indian economic enterprise, as defined in paragraph (a) of this clause.

(1) A description of the required percentage of the work/costs to be provided by the offeror over the contract term as required by section 1452.280-3, Subcontracting Limitations clause;

(2) A description of the source of human resources for the work to be performed by the offeror;

(3) A description of the method(s) of recruiting and training Indian employees, indicating the extent of soliciting employment of Indian persons, as required by DIAR 1452.226-70, Indian Preference, or DIAR 1452.226-71, Indian Preference Program, clause(s);

(4) A description of how subcontractors (if any) will be selected in compliance with the

(d) Required Assurance. The offeror must provide written assurance to the Indian Affairs that it will comply, or has, complied fully with the requirements of this clause.

(e) Non-responsiveness. Failure to provide the information required by paragraphs (c) and (d) of this clause may cause Indian Affairs to find an offer non-responsive and to reject it.

(f) Eligibility.

(1) Participation in the Mentor- Protege Program established under section 831 of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 1991 (25 U.S.C. 47 note) does not render an Indian economic enterprise ineligible for contracts awarded under the Buy Indian Act.

The notification must include full disclosure of circumstances causing the contractor to lose eligibility status and a description of any actions that the contractor will take to regain eligibility. Failure to give the CO immediate written notification means that: (i) The economic enterprise may be declared ineligible for future contract awards under this part; and

L.6 Instructions for Proposal Preparation

The following instructions supplement those at FAR 52.212-1(b).

(1) Offerors are expected to follow the proposal preparation instructions fully and carefully. The Government will rely substantially on the information provided by the Offerors to evaluate the proposals. It is therefore imperative that Offerors carefully follow the instructions set forth below and submit their proposals in the format and with the content specified below, providing all requested information. Offers that simply restate the RFP requirements or that state that the Offeror’s proposal is compliant with the requirements of the RFP – without providing necessary explanation or other data – are not likely to be highly evaluated, if they can be evaluated at all.

Proposals that fail to provide all required information in the format requested may be found unacceptable and may be rejected without further consideration if the Contracting Officer determines that a significant revision or addendum to the Offeror’s proposal would be required to permit further evaluation, and especially if the incompleteness of the proposal or errant formatting of the proposal appears to be due from a lack of diligence or competence of the Offeror.

(2) The instructions provided have been specifically tailored to the evaluation factors to be applied during proposal evaluation. They are designed to ensure the submission of information essential to the understanding and comprehensive validation and evaluation of proposals. Clarity and completeness are of utmost importance to the proposal. The relevance and conciseness of the proposal is important. Key points should be easily found, or may be presumed to be lacking. The Offeror should maintain careful organization and adherence to the titling instructions throughout the proposal. Complex or costly presentations are neither required nor desired.

(3) The Offeror is responsible for the accuracy and completeness of its proposal. The proposal shall be valid for thirty (30) calendar days from the proposal due date. (End of Provision)

L.7 Proposal Format

The Offeror shall submit (1) proposal.

Section 1- Technical Proposal to include;

1. resumes of key personnel with documentation of qualifications,

2. past performance to include contact information from at least three previous projects that are similar in nature to this project

M - Evaluation Factors for Award

M.1 Introduction:

This part describes the evaluation factors BIA will consider in evaluating offerors’ proposals for award.

BIA will determine the individual proposals judged to be most advantageous to the Government based on an integrated assessment of each offeror’s proposal. An assessment of both the proposal and the offeror's ability as demonstrated in its proposal to successfully accomplish the contract will be performed. This will be a best value selection. Best value is defined in FAR Part 2 as the expected outcome of an acquisition that, in the Government’s estimation, provides the greatest overall benefit in response to the requirement.

In performing its best value analysis, the Government will identify any relevant differences among the evaluated proposals against the evaluation factors below to determine which proposal(s) represent(s) the overall best value. This effort will include evaluation of the strengths and weaknesses inherent in each offer.

The Government does not intend to hold discussions. Therefore, all proposal submissions shall contain the Offeror’s best terms from a technical and price standpoint. However, the Government reserves the right to hold discussions, at the sole discretion of the Contracting Officer. The Government will evaluate all proposals in accordance with FAR 15.305(a), and, if discussions are to be conducted, a competitive range will be established. The Contracting Officer, at her sole discretion, will establish a competitive range comprised of all the most highly rated proposals, unless the range is further reduced for purposes of efficiency.

M.2 FAR 52.212-2 Evaluation – Commercial Items (JAN 1999) (Tailored)

(a) The Government will award a contract resulting from this solicitation to the responsible Offeror whose offer conforming to the solicitation will be most advantageous to the Government, price and other factors considered. The award will be made to the offeror whose proposal represents the Best Value to the Government. Offerors are advised that this may result in award to other than the lowest priced offeror or other than the highest technically rated offeror. The following factors shall be used to evaluate offers and are listed in descending order of importance. When combined, the non-price factors are equal to price.

Non-Price Factors:

Factor 1: Technical Capabilities

Factor 2: Past Performance Factor 3: Price

This will be a best value selection.

The award will be made to the offeror whose proposal represents the Best Value to the Government.

Offerors are advised that this may result in award to other than the lowest priced offeror or other than the highest technically rated offeror.

The process of determining whether an offeror is responsible will include a review of government databases to ensure satisfactory past performance on previous contracts with the federal government. The Government reserves the right to use data obtained from other sources while conducting its evaluation.

Description of Factors for Award

Each evaluation factor is described below:

Non-Price Factor 1: Technical Capabilities

The offeror’s proposal will be evaluated to determine the extent to which the offeror has the technical capabilities and equipment to complete performance. Offeror should provide a summary of how they expect to complete the project, along with the types of machinery the offeror intends to utilize and if this equipment is owned by the company or will be rented.

Non-Price Factor 2: Past Performance

The offeror’s proposal will be evaluated to determine the extent to which its past performance demonstrates the likelihood of successful performance in providing requirements similar in size, scope and complexity to the requirements identified in the RFP. The evaluation will consider both the relevance and quality of past projects.
