(End of provision)

FAR 52.212-2 – Evaluation – Commercial Items (NOV 2021)

(a) The Government will award one, or multiple, Purchase Orders resulting from this solicitation to the responsible Contractor whose offer conforming to the solicitation will be most advantageous to the Government, price and other factors considered. The following factors shall be used to evaluate offers:

1. EVALUATION FACTORS AND RATING METHODOLOGY

1.1 EVALUATION FACTORS

Factor 1 – Technical Approach Factor 2 – Past Performance Factor 3 - Price

Order of Precedence: Factors 1 is more important than Factor 2. Factors 1 & 2 combined are more important than Factor 3. Factor 3, Price, will become more important as non-price factors become more equal. While the Government anticipates award to the responsible contractor(s) whose quote(s) provide the overall best value to the Government, no award will be made based on technical approach when the proposed price is considered unreasonably high.

8 | P a g e

1.1.1 Factor 1 – Technical Approach: The Technical Approach will be evaluated as a measure of merit and the Government’s confidence. The Government will evaluate the contractor’s technical capabilities for delivering high quality court reporting services as defined in the Statement of Work. The Government will specifically evaluate the extent to which the contractor presents the following:

a) The contractor’s experience and abilities in providing court reporting services.

b) The Government will evaluate the contractor’s Technical Capability and Management Approach on its quality, feasibility, practicability, innovativeness, and appropriateness in accomplishing the requirements of this contract from a technical perspective. The Government will also evaluate the contractor on the clarity of their approach and their ability to convey to the Government their understanding of and ability to perform the requirements of the SOW. The Government will also evaluate the extent to which potential risks are identified and mitigated for all elements described in the SOW. The contractor shall address all requirements for the Technical Approach Factor and demonstrate the ability to meet or exceed the requirements of the solicitation.

1.1.2 Factor 2 – Past Performance:

Contractors will be evaluated on the quality of their past performance for the contracts they have identified in the PPQs. The Government will evaluate the Contractor’s record of past performance in “recent” and “relevant” contract efforts. “Recent” means contracts that are on-going or have been completed within three (3) years from the closing date of this RFQ. “Relevant” means performance of work similar in size and scope under similar conditions.

Relevant experience is described as contractor performing work related to similar to those listed in the PWS. Contracts providing court reporting services for government agencies will be considered most relevant.

In the conduct of its past performance evaluation, the Government may use a variety of information sources in addition to information provided in the Past Performance Questionnaires. These sources may include, but are not limited to, technical reports, commercial or any available published information, Government past performance databases and information derived from present or past Government or commercial customers of the Contractor.

Contractors without a record of recent or relevant past performance will not be evaluated favorably or unfavorably on past performance and will be rated neutral on Past Performance.

9 | P a g e

1.1.3 Factor 3 – Price: The Government will evaluate price quotes to determine reasonableness. Prices that are excessively high or low may be considered unrealistic and unreasonable and may receive no further consideration. The government will be evaluating all quotes to determine best value. The Government will evaluate offers for award purposes by evaluating prices for the Base Year and Option Years. Quotes that do not include prices for the Option Years may be rejected and may not be considered further for award. Evaluation of options will not obligate the Government to exercise the options. All pricing must be specific to the Schedule of Rates.

2. EVALUATION METHODOLOGY

2.1.1 Factor 1: The following adjectival ratings will be used to rate Factor 1. A determination of “Unacceptable” renders the entire quote unacceptable and therefore will NOT be considered for award. The quote must be rated “Acceptable” or higher overall to be considered for award.

Outstanding – Quote meets requirements and indicates an exceptional approach and understanding of the requirements. Strengths far outweigh any weaknesses.

Risk of unsuccessful performance is very low.

Good – Quote meets requirements and indicates a thorough approach and understanding of the requirements. Quote contains strengths, which outweigh any weaknesses. Risk of unsuccessful performance is low.

Acceptable – Quote meets requirements and indicates an adequate approach and understanding of the requirements. Strengths and weaknesses are offsetting or will have little or no impact on BPA order performance. Risk of unsuccessful performance is no worse than moderate.

Marginal – Quote does not clearly meet requirements and has not demonstrated an adequate approach and understanding of the requirements. The quote has one or more weaknesses, which are not offset by strengths. Risk to unsuccessful performance is high.

Unacceptable – Quote does not meet requirements and contains one or more deficiencies. Quote is unawardable.

2.1.2 Factor 2 – Past Performance: There will be two aspects to the evaluation of the Past Performance. The first aspect is to evaluate the Contractor’s past performance to determine how relevant a recent effort accomplished by the Contractor is to the effort to be acquired through this RFQ. The second aspect is “Confidence.” Confidence for Past Performance is an assessment of the Contractor’s demonstrated ability to successfully perform the requirements of the contract based on how well they have performed on recent, relevant contracts. A

10 | P a g e determination of “No Confidence” renders the entire quote unacceptable and therefore will not be considered for award.

a) Relevancy: The following definitions will be used for the relevancy ratings for each project:

Rating Description Very Relevant Present/past performance effort involved essentially the same scope and magnitude of effort and complexities this solicitation requires.

Relevant Present/past performance effort involved similar scope and magnitude of effort and complexities this solicitation requires.

Somewhat Relevant

Present/past performance effort involved some of the scope and magnitude of effort and complexities this solicitation requires.

Not Relevant Present/past performance effort involved little or none of the scope and magnitude of effort and complexities this solicitation requires

b. Confidence: The following definitions will be used for the confidence ratings for the overall Past Performance:

Rating Description Substantial Confidence

Based on the Contractor’s recent/relevant performance record, the Government has a high expectation that the Contractor will successfully perform the required effort.

Satisfactory Confidence

Based on the Contractor’s recent/relevant performance record, the Government has a reasonable expectation that the Contractor will successfully perform the required effort.

Limited Confidence

Based on the Contractor’s recent/relevant performance record, the Government has a low expectation that the Contractor will successfully perform the required effort.

No Confidence

Based on the Contractor’s recent/relevant performance record, the Government has no expectation that the Contractor will successfully perform the required effort.

Unknown Confidence (Neutral)

No recent/relevant performance record is available or the Contractor’s performance record is so sparse that no meaningful confidence assessment rating can be reasonably assigned.

3. Factor 3 – Price: Price will not be scored or receive an adjectival rating.
