Addendum to FAR 52.212-2 EVALUATION--COMMERCIAL PRODUCTS AND COMMERCIAL SERVICES

A. BASIS FOR AWARD

This procurement is being conducted in accordance with the commercial item procedures of FAR Part 12, as amended by the FAR Overhaul (RFO). The Government will award a contract to the responsible vendor whose quotation represents the best value to the Government, price and other factors considered. The non-price factors (Technical Capability and Past Performance), when combined, are significantly more important than Price. The formal source selection procedures described in FAR Part 15 will not be utilized.

B. EVALUATION CRITERIA

• FACTOR 1: TECHNICAL CAPABILITY:

• Basis of Evaluation: The Government will subjectively evaluate the offeror's comprehensive understanding of the requirement and the feasibility of their proposed approach to successfully fulfill the contract requirements. The submittals will be evaluated to determine whether the proposed approach demonstrates a clear and unambiguous ability to meet the strict response time, specialized staffing standards (including ETI training), and transition timeline defined in the PWS.

Factor 1 Rating Standard:

• Acceptable: The proposal demonstrates a feasible, realistic technical approach that meets all requirements of the Performance Work Statement (PWS)

• Unacceptable: The proposal fails to demonstrate a feasible technical approach that meets the PWS requirements

• FACTOR 2: PAST PERFORMANCE:

• Recency: Performance on a contract that is ongoing or was completed within the last three (3) years from the release date of this solicitation.

• Relevance: Performance on contracts of a similar scope, size, and complexity to this requirement, specifically defined as the provision of 24/7/365 paramedic-level Emergency Medical Services (EMS) or ambulance transport operations in a military, municipal, or highly secured campus environment.

• Performance Quality: The Government will assess the quality of the recent and relevant performance utilizing the submitted Past Performance Questionnaires (PPQs), as well as data retrieved from government-wide databases including the Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS) and the Federal Awardee Performance and Integrity Information System (FAPIIS).

The Government will assign an overall performance confidence rating using the following simplified criteria:

• Acceptable Confidence: Based on the offeror's recent and relevant performance record, the Government has a reasonable expectation that the offeror will successfully perform the required effort.

• Low Confidence: Based on the offeror's recent and relevant performance record, the Government has low expectations or significant concerns that the offeror will successfully perform the required effort.

• Neutral Confidence: The offeror lacks a record of recent and relevant past performance, or the past performance information is so sparse that no meaningful confidence rating can be assigned. In accordance with RFO guidelines, a neutral confidence rating will be evaluated neither favorably nor unfavorably.

• FACTOR 3: PRICE: The proposed price will be evaluated for fairness and reasonableness.

• Basis of Evaluation: The proposed price will be evaluated for fairness and reasonableness in relation to the solicitation requirements. Prices must be entirely compatible with the technical capability portion of the proposal.

A revenue ruling is the conclusion of the IRS on how the law is applied to a specific set of facts.
