EVALUATION FACTORS

L- 5 Instructions for the Preparation of Technical Proposals; &

M- 1 Evaluation Criteria

(a) Technical Proposal.

The Government will evaluate each potential contractor in terms of the following evaluation criteria, which are of equal value in the evaluation process, in order to determine the most highly qualified firms. In conducting evaluations, the Government will consider information provided by the offeror, and may also acquire and consider other information provided from references, previous and current customers, other individuals familiar with the offeror, Government databases, and publicly available sources.

1. Professional Qualifications. Professional qualifications necessary for satisfactory performance of required services.

The offeror shall submit a completed SF-330. The information provided in the SF-330 and other information gathered by the Government will be used to evaluate the general qualifications and experience of the proposed team, including key personnel and sub-contractors.

2. Specialized Experience and technical competence.

The offeror shall provide specific information on completed projects which are similar in nature to Forest Service facilities described in this announcement. Offeror shall also provide other information on specialized experience and technical competence, including, experience in energy conservation, pollution prevention, waste reduction, the use of recovered materials, and historic preservation.

3. Capacity to accomplish the work in the required time:

The Offeror shall provide specific information supporting that their office, including subcontractors will have the capacity to perform work in a timely manner, and perform multiple task orders in addition to existing work load. Multiple task orders, up the maximum allowable under the contract may be placed at one time, and contract time for those task orders may run concurrently.

4. Past Performance. Past performance on contracts with Government agencies and private industry in terms of cost control, quality of work, and compliance with performance schedules.

The offeror shall identify all contracts and subcontracts currently in process and completed by the offeror’s firm in the past 3 years. Include contracts and subcontracts similar in nature and complexity to that required by this solicitation and contracts entered into with Federal, State and local governments and commercial customers. Provide additional specific information of recent relevant contracts which support past and present performance in the past three years.

Provide references who can confirm your past performance. For each relevant contract or reference, the offeror is requested to provide:

• Agency/company and contact information (contact name, and phone number or email address)

• Contract number and type (i.e. design, design-build, construction management)

• A description of the project

• Dollar value of contract

• Period of Performance – include contract duration and completion date

• A description any problems encountered and the efforts made to correct and prevent future occurrences.

The Offeror may discuss past accomplishments and recognition that indicates the firm's ability to perform the work required by the contract.

Offerors with no record of relevant past performance will be evaluated neither favorably nor unfavorably.

5. Location in the general geographical area of the project and knowledge of the locality of the project.

The offeror shall demonstrate proposed team is located near, or can readily meet with Forest

Service personnel in Missoula, MT. The Offeror shall demonstrate knowledge of areas the work may be performed; familiarity with the work sites in the area (including local historical facilities), and familiarity with the various types of work sites for which the Forest Service may require services, including administrative sites, research centers, work centers, training facilities

(classrooms, training apparatus for fire fighters, IT training, etc), bunkhouses, and historical buildings. The offeror shall demonstrate knowledge of U.S. Forest Service Agency architecture, history and culture, and other architecture, history and culture that may be relevant to projects being designed in the area covered by the contract.

(b) Price Proposal. After the selection board evaluates and ranks each offeror, the Contracting Officer will request price proposals from the highest ranked offeror(s). The Government will evaluate the offeror’s proposed prices for the base and all option years to determine if proposed prices are fair and reasonable.

(c) Evaluation and Award Statement. Technical Proposals, including Past Performance will be evaluated.

Technical interviews (aka “discussions” per FAR Part 36, not FAR Part 15) will be held with at least three of the most highly qualified firms as identified by the selection board. Upon review and approval of the selection report, the Contracting Officer will request prices from the most highly qualified firm. An evaluation will be conducted to determine if prices offered are fair and reasonable or require price negotiations to be conducted. In the event a fair and reasonable price cannot be reached with the most highly qualified firm, the Contracting Officer may enter into negotiations with another firm on the selection report. A selection report indicating the final recommendations of the selection board will be prepared for review and approval by the Source Selection Authority.

Award will be made to the most highly qualified firm for which a fair and reasonable price is agreed to.

The Government reserves the right to make cost/technical trade-offs that are in the best interest and advantageous to the Government. The critical factor in making any cost/technical trade-off is not the difference between the technical evaluations but the significance of the difference. The significance of the difference between the technical evaluations will be determined on the basis of what the difference might mean in terms of performance and what it would cost the Government to take advantage of that difference. The Government may reject any or all offers if such action is determined to be in the best interest of the Government.
