The Government recommends submission of at least three (3) recent and relevant contracts but will evaluate any and all submitted contractor past performance information which demonstrates they have successfully executed contracts of similar scope and magnitude within the past five (5) years. References will be evaluated in the aggregate to allow quoters who may not have the entire scope, magnitude, and complexity of the requirement under one individual contract to still be considered relevant if experience with the full scope, magnitude, and complexity of the requirement can be demonstrated within the allotted number of references as described above. Recency, as it pertains to past performance information, is a measure of the time that has elapsed since the contract mailto:sally.smith@xyz.com occurred.

d. Quotes shall include all required documentation as listed in (c) above. Submission of a quote that does not contain all items requested may result in elimination from consideration for award.

(2) Paragraph (c) of 52.212-1 is tailored to read as follows: (c) Period of acceptance of offers. The quoter agrees to hold the prices in its offer firm for 60 calendar days from the date specified for receipt of quotes.

FAR 52.212-2 Evaluation – Commercial Products and Commercial Services (NOV 2021)

(a) The Government will award one (1) Firm-Fixed Price (FFP) and Time and Materials (T&M) contract resulting from this solicitation to the responsible offeror whose offer 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: (i) price; (ii) technical capability; (iii) past performance.

The award decision process is bing conducted under FAR Part 12 and FAR Part 13.5, wherein the Contracting Officer is permitted to have substantive communications with individual contractors about their quotes without being subjected to the policies and procedures of FAR Part 15, and without engaging in “discussions” or “negotiations” under FAR Part 15.

Quotes shall be evaluated for acceptability or unacceptability only and shall not be rated. Award will be based on the overall lowest evaluated price of the quotes meeting or exceeding the acceptability standards for the non-price factors. Any offeror who has submitted a technically acceptable quote and who has been found to have an acceptable past performance will then have the quote evaluated for lowest price.

To be considered acceptable and eligible for award, an offeror must address separately all the factors set forth in accordance with the instructions of this solicitation. A major item and/or gross omission which mailto:anthea.gladkowski@dla.mil precludes meeting solicitation objectives that cannot be corrected prior to or during communciations without major revision or complete resubmission of the quote will cause a quote to be found technically unacceptable.

The Government intends to make an award based on the initial quotes received; therefore, the initial offer shall contain the Offeror’s best terms from a price and technical standpoint. Offerors must be determined to be responsible according to the standards of FAR Part 9 to be eligible for award. As part of this evaluation, the Government reserves the right to review any sources or people the Government determines reliable including those sources which relate to past performance.

Pricing If a quote has been determined acceptable under each of the non-price factors listed below, the Government will then evaluate the quote for the lowest price. The proposed total price, the sum of the total amount for all Contract Line Items (CLINs) (if multiple CLINs), between offers that are determined to be technically acceptable will be the determining factor in the selection of a quote for award. All CLINs must be priced.

Price analysis shall not be conducted on offerors determined to be unacceptable for award.

The Government will perform a price analysis to determine the reasonablenss of proposed price in accordance with FAR 15.404-1(b). The Government will use a comparison of proposed prices received in respone to the solicitation.

Although the Government may award a contract as a result of this solicitation, the Government reserves the right to reject any and all quotes received and not award any item from this solicitation.

The following non-price factors shall be used to determine acceptability of a quote:

Technical Capability To be considered for award, offerors must provide services specified in the Schedule of Supplies/Services.

(a) Meet the service characteristics specified in this solicitation and attached Statements of Work;

(b) Provide descriptive information as to the services provided, such as a brochure or other descriptive information.

Failure to provide a complete, detailed, realistic, and reasonable quote may reflect a lack of understanding of the requirements and may result in a determination that the offeror’s quote is unacceptable. The Government does not assume a duty to search for clarificatin data to cure problems or inconsistencies with an offeror’s quote.

Past Performance Past Performance is the offeror’s record of conforming to the solicitation specifications and to standards of good workmanship; the offeror’s adherence to contract schedules, including the administrative aspects of performance; the offeror’s reputation for record of reasonable and cooperative behaviour and commitment to customer satisfaction; and generally, the offeror’s business-like concern for the interest of the customer.

The Government will evaluate the offeror’s Past Performance to determine acceptability of the quote in response to this solicitation. Past performance will be evaluated on an acceptable/unacceptable basis and shall not be rated. The offeror will be evaluated on the past performance record and any other relevant information obtained from available sources which may include: Supplier Performance Risk System (SPRS), the Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS) at https://www.cpars.gov, or other databases.

In the case of the supplier without a record of relevant past performance history in SPRS for the PSC of the supplies being purchased, the supplier will not be evaluated favorably or unfavorably for its past performance history. In the context of acceptability/unacceptability, “unknown” shall be considered acceptable.

The Government is not obligated to interview all points of contact identified by Offerors nor is the Government limited to the points of contact provided.

https://www.cpars.gov/

(b) Options. N/A

(c) A written notice of award or acceptance of an offer, mailed or otherwise furnished to the successful offeror within the time for acceptance specified in the offer, shall result in a binding contract without further action by either party. Before the offer’s specified expiration time, the Government may accept an offer (or part of an offer), whether or not there are negoations after its receipt, unless a written notice of withdrawal is received before award.

(End of Provision)

DLA Procurement L08 Use of Supplier Performance Risk System (SPRS) in Past Performance Evaluations

(JUN 2020)

(1) The Government will use the Supplier Performance Risk System (SPRS) (https://www.sprs.csd.disa.mil/) (formerly Past Performance Information Retrieval System – Statistical Reporting (PPIRS-SR)) and may use other performance history to evaluate suppliers’ past performance. (2) SPRS collects quality and delivery data on previously awarded contracts and orders from existing Department of Defense reporting systems to classify each supplier’s performance history by Federal supply class (FSC) and product or service code (PSC). The SPRS application provides the contracting officer quantifiable past performance information regarding a supplier's quality and delivery performance for the FSC and PSC of the supplies the Government is purchasing. (3) The contracting officer will use the quality and delivery classifications identified for a supplier in SPRS to evaluate a supplier’s past performance in conjunction with the supplier’s references (if requested). The Government will use this past performance information in accordance with the basis for award stated in the solicitation. (4) SPRS generates classifications daily for each contractor. The SPRS Software User's Guide for Awardees/Contractors (https://www.sprs.csd.disa.mil/pdf/SPRS_Awardee.pdf) and the SPRS Government User Guide (https://www.sprs.csd.disa.mil/pdf/SPRS_Government.pdf) provide instructions for accessing SPRS classifications.

Contractors have access to SPRS for their own classifications only. Suppliers are encouraged to review their own classifications; the SPRS reporting procedures and classification methodology detailed in the SPRS Software User's Guide for Awardees/Contractors (https://www.sprs.csd.disa.mil/pdf/SPRS_Awardee.pdf); and the SPRS Evaluation Criteria (https://www.sprs.csd.disa.mil/pdf/SPRS_DataEvaluationCriteria.pdf). The SPRS Software User's Guide for Awardees/Contractors (https://www.sprs.csd.disa.mil/pdf/SPRS_Awardee.pdf) provides the method to challenge a rating generated by SPRS.
