Questions received after the above stated deadline may be responded to at the discretion of the CO. All communications regarding this requirement shall be between the quoter and ICE only. Please be advised that the mailto:Genna.Braden@ice.dhs.gov government reserves the right to publish those questions and answers to all prospective quoters.

Questions shall be submitted in the following format:

EVALUATION CRITERIA

The government intends to award a FFP purchase order. This requirement will be evaluated for technical acceptability only and award will be made to the quoter with the lowest priced technically acceptable (LPTA) quote. If it is determined that none of the quotes received are technically acceptable to the government, no award will be issued against this solicitation. The government assumes no responsibility or liability for costs incurred in preparing and submitting quotes.

The Government will evaluate two Factors:

• Factor 1: Technical Capability

• Factor 2: Price

EVALUATION METHODOLOGY

Evaluation of Factor 1

The quoter’s Technical Capability quote will be evaluated for technical acceptability only. A Technical Capability quote shall be determined to be technically acceptable or unacceptable based on the rating definitions in the table below. Note that simple statements of compliance or reiteration (e.g.., “understood”; “will comply”, “has the capability to”, “well-known techniques will be used”), without a detailed description of how compliance or performance will be met, may not sufficiently demonstrate quoter’s ability to meet the requirements and may result in a rating of Unacceptable.

Rating Definitions:

Acceptable The quote demonstrates that the quoter has a thorough understanding of the requirements outlined in the SOW and a sound technical approach to execute those requirements.

Unacceptable The quote does not demonstrate that the quoter has a thorough understanding of the requirements outlined in the SOW and/or a sound technical approach to execute those requirements.

Evaluation of Factor 2

The Price quote will not be rated but will be evaluated with respect to reasonableness. The Government will evaluate the total proposed price for reasonableness by utilizing one or more of the following methods:

• Comparison to other quotes received.

• Comparison and/or analysis based on Independent Government Cost Estimate.

• Comparison/analysis to historical prices.

• Comparison with competitive published price lists.

• Comparison of proposed prices with prices obtained through market research for the same or similar items.

BASIS OF AWARD

All quotes received in response to the RFQ will be ranked by the total proposed price from lowest to highest. The Government will first identify the lowest priced quote and evaluate it for technical acceptability in accordance with the technical requirements listed in the RFQ. If the lowest-priced quote is deemed technically acceptable, an award will be made to that quoter based on their quote. If the quote is deemed unacceptable, based on the evaluation of technical factor, the next lowest priced quote will be evaluated for technical acceptability. Once the least expensive technically acceptable quote has been identified, the government will cease evaluating quotes.
