ADDENDUM TO 52.212-2-EVALUATION--COMMERCIAL ITEMS

B.4 BASIS FOR AWARD

1) The Government will make award to the lowest price technically acceptable (LPTA) offeror IAW FAR

15.101-2. The evaluation criteria consist of three (3) evaluation factors: Technical Acceptability (with sub-factors), Past Performance, and Price. To receive consideration for award, a rating of “Acceptable” must be achieved for the Technical Acceptability factor and a rating of “Acceptable for the Past Performance Factor. A rating of “Unacceptable” for any of the sub-factors under the Technical Acceptability Factor will be cause for an overall “Unacceptable” rating of the Technical Acceptability factor. For each proposal found to be eligible for award, Price will become the determining factor for making the award.

2) The Government intends to award one contract based on initial offers without discussions. However, if discussions are held in accordance with FAR 15.306(d), written discussions with each Offeror may be held with each Offeror in the competitive range and in accordance with FAR 15.307(b).

FACTORS AND SUB-FACTORS TO BE EVALUATED

The Government will award a contract resulting from this solicitation to the responsible offeror who is technically acceptable and offers the lowest price. The offeror shall also receive an “Acceptable” rating on past performance in order to be considered for award. The following factors shall be used to evaluate offers:

Factor 1 – Technical Acceptability

a. Sub-Factor 1 –Personnel

b. Sub-Factor 3 – Quality Control Plan

Factor 2 - Past Performance

Factor 3 - Price

EVALUATION CRITERIA

Factor 1 – Technical Acceptability

Offeror’s shall submit a proposal that demonstrates their business’s ability to meet the Technical Acceptability sub-factors listed below. The Government will evaluate the technical proposals on an “Acceptable (Pass)”/”Unacceptable (Fail)” basis to ensure the offeror’s ability to meet the requirements of the PWS and the solicitation. To be determined technically acceptable, offerors must receive an “Acceptable” rating on all the following sub-factors for which the sub-factor is required:

B - 7

Sub-Factor 1-Personnel: Contractor personnel must have a minimum of 3 years’ experience and appropriate manufactures training to repair and certifications from the National Fire Prevention Association that allows their technician (s) to certify life safety systems (Fire Alarm, Fire Suppression and Fire Extinguishing equipment).

A. It is desired that the offeror demonstrate that its personnel has 3 years’ experience providing maintenance of similar or equivalent suppressions and fire extinguisher systems.

B. It is desired the offeror possess the certifications and training in accordance with the requirements listed in and by The National Fire Prevention Association code.

Sub-Factor 2- Quality Control Plan. To be acceptable, offeror’s proposal shall include a Quality Control Plan (QCP) that addresses the business’s plan to provide, maintain and monitor quality services to the Government in the anticipated contract. The offeror’s Quality Control Plan shall:

A. Cover all services described in the PWS.

B. Include an overview of the offeror’s contract management and administration plan.

C. Include an inspection program covering all services in the PWS.

D. Include methods of identifying and curing deficiencies before performance becomes unacceptable.

E. Detail anticipated methods of communicating with the Government regarding performance of the contract.

Factor 2 - Past Performance a.The Past Performance rating will be based on an “Acceptable” / “Unacceptable” basis. The following definitions will be used in evaluating the degree the offeror will satisfactorily provide the required services based on past and current performance records. An acceptable or Unacceptable rating will be determined as follows:

“Acceptable” - Based on the offeror’s performance record, the Government has a reasonable expectation that the offeror will be able to successfully perform the required effort, or the offeror’s performance record is unknown. (See note below).

“Unacceptable”- Based on the offeror’s performance record, the Government has no reasonable expectation that the offeror will be able to successfully perform the required effort.

Note: In the case of an offeror without a record of relevant past performance or for whom information on past performance is not available or so sparse that no meaningful past performance rating can be reasonably assigned, the offeror may not be evaluated favorably or unfavorably on past performance (see FAR 15.305

B - 8

(a)(2)(iv)). Therefore, the offeror shall be determined to have unknown past performance. In the context of acceptability/unacceptability, “unknown” shall be considered “acceptable.”

b. Past Performance Information: The information presented in the Past Performance Questionnaire (Appendix II) and information obtained from other available sources other than those identified by the Offeror (such as past performance information obtained from Federal, State and local Government agencies, better business bureaus, published media, and electronic data bases available to the Government) will be the basis for evaluation of this factor.

c. Past Performance Evaluation: The Government will consider the offeror’s previous and current record of contractual performance. The Government assessment will focus on recent contracts that are relevant to the effort required by this solicitation. Recent is defined for this action to be contracts that were awarded and performed within the last five (5) calendar years, from the date of RFP issuance back. Relevant to this effort is defined in the following table:

RELEVANCY CRITERIA TABLE

RATING DESCRIPTION

Relevant (R)

�Similar in scope means that the work must have been equivalent to inspecting, testing, and maintenance of Fire Suppression, Fire Alarm and Fire Extinguisher systems.

�Similar magnitude is equivalent to a full time person with one year.

Not Relevant (NR) Present/past performance was not within scope and/or did not involve any of the magnitude of effort that this solicitation requires.

d. The Government may reject a proposal if it is found that any information that has a negative impact on the offeror’s past performance record has been deleted, misrepresented, or withheld.

e. It is at the Government’s discretion to determine whether past performance information furnished is or is not considered similar to the size and scope of the present requirement. Should the offeror have no past performance information the Government will assign the neutral rating of “Unknown Confidence” to the offeror, which will be deemed as an “Acceptable” If the offeror has relevant past performance information, but for whatever reason neglects to submit it, the offeror has submitted an incomplete and therefore unacceptable proposal.

B - 9

f. Offeror’s are cautioned that, in conducting the past performance assessment, the Government may use data provided in the offeror's proposal and data obtained from other sources. Since the Government may not necessarily interview all of the sources provided by the offerors, it is incumbent upon the offerors to explain the relevance of the data provided. Offerors are reminded that while the Government may elect to consider data obtained from other sources, the burden of proving an “acceptable” past performance rests with the offerors.

g. Offeror’s may provide information on problems encountered on the contracts identified in their past performance submissions and the offeror’s corrective actions (FAR 15.305)

Factor 3 - Price

a. The Price Proposal shall be clearly marked “PRICE PROPOSAL, RFP NO. CSOSA-14-R-0002. It shall consist of Section B of the solicitation and state the prices of each CLIN as described therein.

b. Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA): After determination of technical acceptability and past performance rating of acceptable, award will be based on the lowest price, technically acceptable proposal: The lowest price shall be the total of all CLINs’ prices schedules for the base year, plus all option years.

c. Options: Offerors shall submit unit pricing for each CLIN in Section B for the base and option years.

d. Each offeror’s proposed price will be evaluated to determine whether it is fair and reasonable in accordance with FAR 15.404.

Offeror’s shall submit a proposal that demonstrates their business’s ability to meet the Technical Acceptability sub-factors listed below. The Government will evaluate the technical proposals on an “Acceptable (Pass)”/”Unacceptable (Fail)” basis to ensure the offeror’s ability to meet the requirements of the PWS and the solicitation. To be determined technically acceptable, offerors must receive an “Acceptable” rating on all the following sub-factors for which the sub-factor is required:
