Postal Code: 84104

Country: UNITED STATES

A contract will be awarded to the lowest-priced technically acceptable offeror. Quotes will be evaluated for acceptability but will not be ranked using the non-cost/price factors. In order to be eligible for award, offerors must receive a rating of “acceptable” in every non-price factor/subfactor. In the interest of economy and efficiency, the Government will start by evaluating the technical quote of the lowest-priced offeror and will award to that offeror if the technical quote is rated “technically acceptable”. If the lowest offeror receives a rating of “unacceptable” in any of the non-cost factors, the Government will then move on to evaluating the technical quote of the next lowest offeror and so on until a quote is rated “technically acceptable”. Therefore, the technical quote of the non-low price offerors may or may not be evaluated.

Per, FAR 52.217-5 Evaluation of Options (JUL 1990), Except when it is determined in accordance with FAR 17.206(b) not to be in the Government’s best interests, the Government will evaluate offers for award purposes by adding the total price for all options to the total price for the basic requirement.

Evaluation of options will not obligate the Government to exercise the option(s).

The following factors and sub-factors will be used to determine technical acceptability. Offeror shall provide the information necessary, including for any subcontractors, to evaluate the following factors and subfactors:

Factor #1 – Technical Capability of Offeror. In order to receive a rating of “acceptable”, offer must at a minimum, demonstrate adequate experience and technical capability of the services offered to meet or exceed the technical specifications. Specifically, the Government will evaluate for the following and each category must receive a rating of acceptable in order to receive an overall rating of acceptable in this factor:

Subfactor #1-1—Ability to Meet Delivery/Call-Out Schedule - In order to receive a rating of “acceptable” for this subfactor, offeror shall must at a minimum, demonstrate adequate technical capability of the item offered to meet or exceed the item specifications. Offer must demonstrate ability to repair/replace the equipment and source supplies and replacement parts.

Factor #2 -Past Performance: In order to receive a rating of “acceptable” the Purchasing Agent must access the System for Award Management (SAM.gov) and Past Performance Information Retrieval System to verify positive past performance and to ensure there is no outstanding government debt owed by the contractor using the contractor’s Dun and Bradstreet number (DUNS).

Subfactor #2-1- Recency and relevancy of present/past performance in relation to this effort - In order to receive a rating of “acceptable” for this subfactor, offeror must, at a minimum provide past experience on similar type contract(s). The past experience should indicate successes of the contractor in completing/meeting delivery dates and customer satisfaction.

The Government considers “recent” present/past performance to be within the past 3 years

Factor #3 - PRICE: Award will be made to the lowest priced offeror that is evaluated as “acceptable” for all non-price factors.
