About this file

This is an evaluation criteria document for RFQ 15A00025Q00000015, outlining how quotes will be evaluated for preventive maintenance services for a Frontier brand multi-shot Pyrolyzer and Autosampler. The evaluation will use a Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) approach, where only the lowest-priced quote will be initially reviewed for technical acceptability. If that quote meets the minimum requirements, it will be awarded without evaluating other quotes.

The technical evaluation requires vendors to provide proof that work will be performed by Frontier-certified technicians, documentation that Frontier will honor warranties, and completion of Attachment 5. For pricing, if multiple quotes are received, competition will determine price reasonableness; if only one quote is received, prices will be compared to GSA Schedule prices. Technical capabilities will be rated as either Acceptable or Unacceptable. The government intends to award without discussions but reserves the right to conduct them if deemed necessary by the Contracting Officer.

ATTACHMENT 4 – EVALUATION CRITERIA

15A00025Q00000015

EVALUATION FACTORS FOR AWARD

The Government will award a Contract resulting from this Request for Quote (RFQ) to the offeror whose Quote is Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA).

Only the lowest priced Quote will be reviewed for technical acceptability. If technical capabilities meet minimum requirements of the solicitation, award will be made to that offeror without further evaluation of the other Quotes received. If technical capabilities do not meet the minimum requirements of the solicitation, then the next lowest priced Quote will be evaluated for technical acceptability until a technically acceptable Quote is found.

Non-Price Factors:

· Volume 1: Technical Capability

The Government will evaluate the Technical Acceptability of the quote by verifying the offeror provided the following:

· Proof that the work will be performed by service technicians certified and authorized by Frontier.

· Provided documentation from Frontier that they will honor all warranties.

· Completed Attachment 5

Price Factor:

· Volume 2: Price

If more than one Quote is received, competition will determine price reasonableness, and a price evaluation will not be completed.

If one Quote is received, price evaluation will proceed. The purpose of the price evaluation is to provide an assessment of the reasonableness of the submitted price in relation to the solicitation requirements.

The Government intends to evaluate offers and award a contract without discussions with offerors. Therefore, the offeror's initial offer should contain the offeror's best terms from a price and technical standpoint. However, the Government reserves the right to conduct discussions if later determined by the Contracting Officer to be necessary. The Government may reject any or all offers if such action is in the public interest; accept other than the lowest offer; and waive informalities and minor irregularities in offers received.

A written notice of award or acceptance of an offer, mailed or otherwise furnished to the successful offeror within the time for acceptance specified in the offer, shall result in a binding contract without further action by either party.

EVALUATION PROCEDURES

Acceptable/Unacceptable Rating

Offeror’s Technical Capability will be rated using an Acceptable/Unacceptable rating system.

Technical Capability

Adjectival Rating
Description
Acceptable

Price Analysis

If more than one Quote is received, competition will determine price reasonableness.

If one Quote is received, price evaluation will proceed by comparing quoted prices to GSA Schedule prices. Price evaluation is to provide an assessment of the reasonableness of the proposed price in relation to the solicitation requirements.
