1.6 The government will evaluate the quality and extent of the offeror’s experience relevant to the requirements of this RFQ. The government reserves the right to consider other sources of information such as current and past procurements, other federal agency contracts, commercial sources, and the Past Performance Information Retrieval System (PPIRS).

Quote does not clearly meet the minimum requirements of the solicitation and or Buy American requirements.

Factor 2 - Present/Past Performance mailto:gayle.hanson@gsa.gov.

Design and Construction Division (10PCQ)

(a) Description: This factor considers the quality of the Offeror’s past performance, within the last three (3) years, in performing contracts of similar type and scope with regards to considerations such as technical success and customer satisfaction. This factor also considers the quality of the Offeror’s performance in carrying out the work required, specifically, workforce management, and scheduling.

(b) Standard for Evaluation: The Government will evaluate the relative merits of each Offeror’s past performance on similar projects. The minimum acceptance requirements for this factor are defined below. Specifically, the Offeror shall demonstrate itself as a business providing verifiable information and references for no more than two (2) projects completed or substantially complete (i.e. at least 75% complete) within the last three (3) years as of the date proposals are due for this Solicitation that:

1) Demonstrate ability to provide quality product or service.

2) Demonstrate responsiveness and ability to meet performance timelines.

3) Demonstrate ability to successfully manage costs and project budgets.

4) Demonstrate effective management/business relations to include effective key personnel, effective coordination, and effective interaction of team members and third party agencies.

The past performance assessment will also be evaluated using information gleaned from the references provided by the Offeror, as well as any other information available to the Government to include, but not limited to the Past Performance Information Retrieval System (PPIRS) and Federal Awardee Performance and Integrity Information System (FAPIIS). If an offeror receives/received below a ‘satisfactory’ from any references, Provided Reference, PPIRS, and/or FAPIIS, the offeror will receive and ‘unacceptable’ rating and will no longer be considered for award.

(c) Present/Past Performance will be rated on an “acceptable” or “unacceptable” basis using the ratings in Table A-2:

Acceptable

Based on the offeror’s performance record, the Government has a reasonable expectation that the offeror will 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 (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.”

Factor 3: Price.

Offeror shall submit pricing for all Contract Line Item Numbers (CLINS). Provide total pricing for the entire offer. The contents of the price quote shall include a breakdown of lump sum prices which shows

Total Price: The total price is the sum of the prices for all the Contract Line Items (CLINs) of this solicitation.

Award will be made to the offeror provided they receive technical acceptability and their pricing is determined to be fair and reasonable by the Contracting Officer.

This solicitation will be evaluated using the methodology of Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA). The award will be made to that offeror that receives the following rating:

Factor 1: Technical Approach – Acceptable Factor 2: Present/Past Performance – Acceptable Factor 3: Price – Lowest priced offer after successful Factors 1-2 evaluations.

3.0 PRICE INFORMATION REQUIREMENT

Contractors may be asked to clarify certain aspects of their quote (for example, the relevance of past performance information) or respond to adverse past performance information to which the Contractor has not previously had an opportunity to respond. Communications may be conducted to resolve minor or clerical errors and the Government reserves the right to award a contract without the opportunity for quote revision.

4.2 The Government intends to award based on initial offers, however, reserves the right to conduct fact finding or communication sessions if the Contracting Officer later determines them to be necessary. If communication sessions are conducted, the means and methods (e.g., in person, telephonic, written) will be determined by the Contracting Officer. This may result in a request for revised price.
