SECTION M--EVALUATION FACTORS FOR AWARD

M.1 AWARD DETERMINATION

Award will be made to that offeror (1) whose proposal is technically acceptable and (2) whose technical/cost relationship is the most advantageous to the Government. While cost is secondary to technical, it will be a factor in the award decision. The critical factor in making any cost/technical trade-off is not the spread between the technical scores, but rather what is the significance of that difference. The significance of the spread in scores will be determined on the basis of what that difference might mean in terms of performance and what it would cost the Government to take advantage of it. Awards may not necessarily be made to that offeror submitting the lowest offer. Also, award may not necessarily be made for technical capabilities that would appear to exceed those needed for the successful performance of the work. The Government reserves the right to make cost/technical trade-offs that are in the best interest and to the advantage of the Government.

Proposals will be rated to determine those offerors which are within the competitive range, price and other factors considered. Proposals should be submitted initially on the most favorable terms which the offeror can make to the Government. The Government reserves the right to reject any or all proposals or to make award without conducting discussions. Discussions (oral or written) may be conducted as appropriate with all offerors considered to be within the competitive range. For the purpose of this solicitation, discussion shall not be considered to have been initiated where the Government requests additional information supplementing or clarifying a proposal without materially changing it. Discussion shall be considered to be open negotiation with an offeror for the purpose of modifying or materially changing the proposal as submitted.

Where discussions are held with one offeror within the competitive range, they will be held with all offerors within the competitive range.

Each proposal received will be carefully considered and all information submitted will be kept in strict confidence within legal constraints. This request for proposals does not commit the Government to pay any costs incurred in the preparation of the submission of proposals.

M.2 EVALUATION CRITERIA

Each offeror’s technical and cost proposal will be evaluated according to the criteria specified in Section M, as outlined below.

1. Past Performance – 50 Points

• Quality of Workmanship – 20 Points

3. Timeline – 20 Points

Realism of proposed completion schedule to meet proposed Contract Performance Period Proposed Performance period that is less than proposed in the solicitation – 5 points.
