Addendum to 52.212-2 Evaluation—Commercial Products and Commercial Services

(a) The Government will award a contract resulting from this solicitation to the responsible quoter whose quote conforming to the solicitation will be most advantageous to the Government, price and other factors considered. The following factors shall be used to evaluate offers:

1. All system components must be able to fit into 2 X 20ft ISO certified containers.

Containers shall be equipped with Exterior Emergency Push Button and Exterior Lighting controlled by photocell. One container shall be set up for 480V/3Ph/60Hz electrical service, and the other container shall have 120/208V Circuit.

Wheeled, lockable table designed to support the function of the robotic arm shall be included.

Evaluation Factors:

This evaluation will utilize comparative analysis to provide the best value to the Government. Award may be made to other than the lowest priced quote if the Government determines that a price premium is warranted due to technical merit.

However, the closer the merits of the technical quote are to one another, the greater will be the importance of price in making the award determination. In the event that two or more technical quotes are determined technically equivalent, award may be made to the lower priced quote provided the price is reasonable. Responses to this solicitation will be evaluated against the following factors:

Factor 1: Technical Factor 2: Past Performance

Factor 3: Price

FACTOR 1: Technical.

The quoter shall provide technical information based off of the requirements of the Purchase Description (PD). The information shall provide, at a minimum, the following information:

a. Provide a detailed breakdown of the specifications of the proposed equipment. Quoters shall demonstrate that they meet or exceed each of the items that are listed in section 4.0 SPECIFICATIONS of the Cold Spray Corrosion Repair System Purchase Description (PD).

b. Demonstrate a structured approach to set up, installation, and portability for the Cold Spray Corrosion Repair System.

c. Provide a training plan in accordance with 12.4 TRAINING of the PD.

The contractor shall review the specifications provided in the Purchase Description (PD).

Offers shall demonstrate that they meet or exceed each of the items that are listed in section 4.0 SPECIFICATIONS of the Cold Spray Corrosion Repair System PD. Mere re-statements of the requirements or statements from the quoters that the quote is compliant that do not include a description of product technical capability is unacceptable.

Additional consideration will be provided to those quotes that exceed the requirements as provided in the PD and provide additional safety features.

If the quote is determined unacceptable in any of the technical evaluation factors or subfactors, the quote may not be considered for award.

In addition to the information submitted by quoters, the Contracting Officer may consider other information reasonably related to the evaluation factors, to include the personal knowledge of the competitor's commercial and Government customers and past performance databases. The Government may consider any other value added benefit offered in its best value determination.

The Contracting Officer may communicate with an offeror at any time during the evaluation without regard to the FAR 15.3 rules concerning competitive range determinations and discussions. The Contracting Officer may also identify the offeror most likely to provide best value and hold negotiations solely with that offeror to finalize the order and/or negotiate more favorable terms for the Government.

Factor 2: Past Performance

A. The Government will evaluate the quoter’s record of past and current performance to ascertain the probability of successfully performing the required efforts of the PD.

B. Quoters shall submit all relevant information on Government and/or commercial contracts for the prime offeror and each major subcontractor, those subcontractors expected to perform twenty (20) percent or more of the effort, in performance or awarded during the past three years, from the issue date of this Request For Quote (RFQ), which are relevant to the efforts required by this RFQ. The Government may consider a wide array of information from a variety of sources, but is not compelled to rely on all of the information available. The Government is not required to consider the past performance of all quoters.

C. Quoters shall include the most recent and relevant efforts (within the past three years) in their quote. Absent any recent and relevant past performance history or when the performance record is so sparse that no meaningful confidence assessment rating can be reasonably assigned, the offeror will be assigned an “unknown confidence rating” and its quote will not be evaluated either favorably or unfavorably on past performance. The Government may use data provided by the quoter in its quote and data obtained from other sources, including data in Government files or data obtained through interviews with personnel familiar with the contractor and their current and past performance under Federal, State or Local government or commercial contracts for same or similar services as compared to the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) 333248. Data used in conducting performance risk assessments shall not extend past three years prior to the issue date of the RFQ but may include performance data generated during the past three years without regard to the contract award date.

Factor 3: Price.

Quoters must quote all items. The total evaluated price will be computed by adding the total estimated amount for each item.
