iv. Price: Contractor shall submit pricing for the following:

1. Construction work as outlined in the PWS.

b. Each of the technical factors/subfactors described above will be rated as follows.

i. Outstanding. Proposal meets requirements and indicates an exceptional approach and understanding of the requirements. Proposal contains strengths which far outweigh any weaknesses. Risk of unsuccessful performance is very low.

ii. Good. Proposal meets requirements and indicates a thorough approach and understanding of the requirements. Proposal contains strengths which outweigh any weaknesses. Risk of unsuccessful performance is low.

iii. Acceptable. Proposal meets requirements and indicates an adequate approach and understanding of the requirements. Strengths and weaknesses are offsetting or will have little or no impact on contract performance. Risk of unsuccessful performance is no worse than moderate.

iv. Marginal. Proposal does not clearly meet requirements and has not demonstrated an adequate approach and understanding of the requirements. The proposal has one or more weaknesses which are not offset by strengths. Risk of unsuccessful performance is high.

v. Unacceptable. Proposal does not meet requirements and contains one or more deficiencies. Proposal is un-awardable.

c. Past performance will be rated by assigning a confidence assessment rating, based on the offeror’s performance record on recent and relevant projects.

More recent/more relevant past performance will impact the overall confidence assessment rating more than less recent/less relevant past performance will. Relevancy is defined as follows.

i. Very Relevant. Past performance effort involved essentially the same scope and magnitude of effort and complexity this solicitation requires.

ii. Relevant. Past performance effort involved similar scope and magnitude of effort and complexity this solicitation requires.

iii. Somewhat Relevant. Past performance effort involved some of the scope and magnitude of effort and complexity this solicitation requires.

iv. Not Relevant. Past performance effort involved little or none of the scope and magnitude of effort and complexity this solicitation requires.

d. Confidence assessment ratings are as follows.

i. Substantial Confidence. Based on the offeror’s recent and relevant performance record, the USGS has a high expectation that the offeror will successfully perform the required effort.

ii. Satisfactory Confidence. Based on the offeror’s recent and relevant performance record, the USGS has a reasonable expectation that the offeror will perform the required effort.

iii. Limited Confidence. Based on the offeror’s recent and relevant performance record, the USGS has a low expectation that the offeror will successfully perform the required effort.

iv. No Confidence. Based on the offeror’s recent and relevant performance record, the USGS has no expectation that the offeror will successfully perform the required effort.

v. Unknown Confidence/Neutral. No recent or relevant performance record is available or the offeror’s performance record is so sparse that no meaningful confidence assessment rating can be reasonably assigned.
