(B) The following factors shall be used to evaluate offers:

(1) Price

(2) Past Performance

(C) Price - Offerors will first be arranged according to total price, from lowest priced offer to the highest priced offer.

(D) Past Performance - After arranging offers by total price, the government will begin evaluating past performance starting with the lowest priced offeror.

Evaluation of the offerors past performance is subjective and will result in a rating of (See table below) Substantial, Satisfactory, Neutral, Limited, or No Confidence. Offerors who do not have recent and relevant past performance relating to this requirement will receive a rating of Neutral Confidence.

Rating Description

Substantial Confidence

Based on the offeror’s recent/relevant performance record, the Government has a high expectation the offeror will successfully perform the requirement.

Satisfactory Confidence

Based on the offeror’s recent/relevant performance record, the Government has a reasonable expectation the offeror will successfully perform the requirement.

Neutral Confidence

No recent/relevant performance record is available or the offeror’s performance record is so sparse, no meaningful confidence assessment rating can be reasonably assigned. The offeror may not be evaluated favorably or unfavorably on the factor of past performance.

Limited Confidence

Based on the offeror’s recent/relevant performance record, the Government has a low expectation the offeror will successfully perform the requirement.

No Confidence

Based on the offeror’s recent/relevant performance record, the Government has no expectation the offeror will successfully perform the requirement.

The Government will evaluate past performance for recency and relevancy.

Recency is defined as performance of similar services within the past three

(3) years from the issue date of the solicitation. Relevancy is defined as delivery of the same or similar items.

(E) If the lowest priced offer receives a Substantial Performance Confidence

Rating, that offer represents the best value for the Government and the evaluation process stops at this point; an award shall be made to that offeror without further consideration of any other offers. In the event the lowest priced offeror does not receive a Substantial Performance Confidence Rating, the evaluation process will continue with the next lowest priced offeror until an offeror receives a Substantial Performance Confidence Rating or all offers are evaluated. In the event an offeror other than the lowest priced offeror received a Substantial Performance Confidence Rating, the Contracting Officer will perform an integrated best value evaluation to determine the eventual awardee. The Government reserves the right to award to a Substantial Performance Confidence Rated offeror, and reserves the right to award to other than the lowest priced offeror.
