Three (3) evaluation factors will be used in this source selection: Qualifications of Key

Personnel, Past Performance and Price.

(1) Qualifications of Key Personnel: The Forest

Service will review the curriculum vitae/resumes submitted for the Principle Investigator and

Field Staff and evaluate their qualifications.

At a minimum, these individuals must meet the minimum professional qualifications identified on page 13 of this request for quote.

(2) Past Performance: When evaluating past performance, the government will assess the quoter's ability to successfully perform future similar work based on it's history of successful performance. This includes an assessment of the following:

* Demonstrated ability to meet the contract specifications and conformance to standards of good workmanship.

* Commitment to customer satisfaction.

* History of reasonable and cooperative behavior.

* Compliance with schedules.

* Reliability and responsiveness.

* Concern for the interests of the customer.

Past performance will be evaluated on the basis of information provided by the quoter and other sources including information in the Government

Wide Past Performance Information Retrieval

System (PPIRS) or an evaluator's personal experience with your firm. The Government will give greater weight to its own experiences with a quoter than it will give to reports obtained from others.

(3) Price: The government will evaluate price based on the total price of all seven (7) of the seed tasks. The Seed Task Schedule of Items is provided as attachment 2 to this RFQ and is required to be submitted with your quote. The hourly rates and labor categories used by quoters in calculating the seed task prices must be the same as the hourly rates and labor categories used by quoters in the Contract Schedule of Items on Page 3 of this RFQ. Completion of both

Schedules are required in response to this RFQ.
