(DEVIATION 25-21) (Effective November 28, 2025) Evaluation Criteria The provision at FAR 52.212-2 Evaluation of Commercial Items is not applicable to this solicitation. IAW FAR 6.302- 1(b)(2), this order is expected to be awarded on a sole source basis to Northrop Grumman Systems Corporation (Cage Code 1LTU5). Due to the sole source nature of this acquisition, the basis for award rests with the determination of fair and reasonable pricing and an affirmative responsibility determination. Should the Government receive offers from responsible sources other than Northrop Grumman Systems Corporation (Cage Code 1LTU5), the offers will be evaluated on lowest priced, technically acceptable (LPTA) offeror representing the best value to the Government.

Price: The offeror shall provide pricing as requested in the attached spreadsheet titled "Attachment 1 - Schedule- 70Z03826QH0000011". Any quantity price discounts and discounts for prompt payment should be included in this section. The offeror's quotation will be evaluated using one or more of the techniques defined in FAR 12.203, in order to determine if it is fair and reasonable.

Technical Acceptability: The Government will assess the information submitted with the offeror’s quotation to determine their ability to provide the items in the solicitation. A firm-fixed price quote for repair shall be submitted at a fully burdened rate. Additionally, the offeror must provide the items below if they do not the quote will not be considered for award. The evaluation criteria are below:

1. The Contractor must have access to the applicable technical directives cited in Statement of Work (SOW) Section Applicable Documents (1.5.1).

a. In order to be found technically acceptable, offerors other than the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) must demonstrate availability of required technical data by providing the cover sheet of the relevant documents and manuals.

2. Airworthiness Certification is required for all items that are repaired. The contractor may use the FAA 8130 Certification; however, use of this form is not required. The contractor may choose to use an "equivalent" Airworthiness Certificate to certify the airworthiness of the repaired component. An equivalent Airworthiness Certification can be the same as used for other Government agencies such as Air Force Airworthiness Certificate or a contractor developed Airworthiness Certificate that is equivalent to the FAA 8130 form. If an FAA 8130 "equivalent" is used, the Contractor shall provide written evidence with the Airworthiness Certificate that the Certification was performed by a qualified individual and include the individual's' name and title. At the request of the Contracting Officer, the contractor shall provide proof of his/her qualification. A Certificate of Conformance with the verbiage of FAR 52.246-15(d) is not acceptable for use to certify the repaired component's airworthiness.

a. If an Airworthiness Certificate cannot be provided, the alternate document shall be submitted with the Contractor's proposal/quote and approved by USCG ALC Engineering Officer for each component. If the component is repaired IAW an AFTO, a USAF certificate is acceptable. The certificate must be signed and dated by an authorized official representing the approved Contractor.

(Remainder of Page Intentionally Left Blank)

3. Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) Confirmation

a. Requirement may be limited to one source only if the contracting officer determines that only one source is reasonably available. This determination will be evaluated pending the submission of appropriate documentation by the vendor claiming to be the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM).

4. To be found technically acceptable, the Contractor shall submit a list of all Sub-contractors that may perform work on USCG articles Confirmation that a Certificate of Conformance in accordance with the clause at FAR 52.246-15 will be provided.

Evaluation Method: Only the lowest priced offer will be evaluated for Technical Acceptability. Should the lowest priced offer not receive an acceptable technical or past performance rating, the process will continue in order of lowest priced offer until the lowest priced, technically acceptable offer is identified.
