CLAUSES INCORPORATED BY FULL TEXT

52.209-7 INFORMATION REGARDING RESPONSIBILITY MATTERS (JULY 2013)

(a) Definitions. As used in this provision--

Administrative proceeding means a non-judicial process that is adjudicatory in nature in order to make a determination of fault or liability (e.g., Securities and Exchange Commission Administrative Proceedings, Civilian Board of Contract Appeals Proceedings, and Armed Services Board of Contract Appeals Proceedings). This includes administrative proceedings at the Federal and State level but only in connection with performance of a Federal contract or grant. It does not include agency actions such as contract audits, site visits, corrective plans, or inspection of deliverables.

Federal contracts and grants with total value greater than $10,000,000 means--

(1) The total value of all current, active contracts and grants, including all priced options; and

(2) The total value of all current, active orders including all priced options under indefinite-delivery, indefinite-quantity, 8(a), or requirements contracts (including task and delivery and multiple-award Schedules).

Principal means an officer, director, owner, partner, or a person having primary management or supervisory responsibilities within a business entity (e.g., general manager; plant manager; head of a division or business segment; and similar positions).

(b) The offeror ( ) has ( ) does not have current active Federal contracts and grants with total value greater than $10,000,000.

(c) If the offeror checked “has” in paragraph (b) of this provision, the offeror represents, by submission of this offer, that the information it has entered in the Federal Awardee Performance and Integrity Information System (FAPIIS) is current, accurate, and complete as of the date of submission of this offer with regard to the following information:

(1) Whether the offeror, and/or any of its principals, has or has not, within the last five years, in connection with the award to or performance by the offeror of a Federal contract or grant, been the subject of a proceeding, at the Federal or State level that resulted in any of the following dispositions:

(i) In a criminal proceeding, a conviction.

(ii) In a civil proceeding, a finding of fault and liability that results in the payment of a monetary fine, penalty, reimbursement, restitution, or damages of $5,000 or more.

(iii) In an administrative proceeding, a finding of fault and liability that results in--

(A) The payment of a monetary fine or penalty of $5,000 or more; or

(B) The payment of a reimbursement, restitution, or damages in excess of $100,000.

(iv) In a criminal, civil, or administrative proceeding, a disposition of the matter by consent or compromise with an acknowledgment of fault by the Contractor if the proceeding could have led to any of the outcomes specified in paragraphs (c)(1)(i), (c)(1)(ii), or (c)(1)(iii) of this provision.

(2) If the offeror has been involved in the last five years in any of the occurrences listed in (c)(1) of this provision, whether the offeror has provided the requested information with regard to each occurrence.

(d) The offeror shall post the information in paragraphs (c)(1)(i) through (c)(1)(iv) of this provision in FAPIIS as required through maintaining an active registration in the System for Award Management database via https://www.acquisition.gov (see 52.204-7).

(End of provision)

52.212-2 EVALUATION--COMMERCIAL ITEMS (OCT2014)

(a) Utilizing the Past Performance-Price Tradeoff process, the Government will award a contract to the responsible offeror whose proposal conforms to the solicitation. The following factor(s) shall be used to evaluate offers:

(1) Compliance with solicitation requirements

(2) Past Performance

(3) Price

Past performance is significantly more important than price when being evaluated.

Compliance with solicitation requirements will be evaluated as either acceptable or unacceptable. The evaluation process shall proceed as follows:

(b) By submission of its proposal, the offeror agrees to comply with all solicitation requirements, including terms and conditions, representations and certifications, and technical requirements. Offerors must clearly identify any exception to the solicitation terms and conditions and provide complete accompanying rationale. Compliance with solicitation requirements will be evaluated as either acceptable or unacceptable.

(c) An offeror’s proposed prices will be determined by multiplying the quantities identified within each line item included on the pricing sheet by the unit price for each item to confirm the extended amount of each. Completion of pricing for each line item will be necessary in order to submit a proposal for each Option Year (if options). The total evaluated price includes the total price for all options along with the basic requirement (if options). Evaluation of options shall not obligate the Government to exercise the option(s). Proposals with option prices that are significantly unbalanced will be evaluated as noncompliant. Offerors shall propose on all items. If there is to be no charge for an item, an entry such as “no charge”, or the letters “N/C” or “0” must be made in the unit price column.

Proposals that fail to price each item or indicate services will be provided at no charge will be evaluated as noncompliant. An offer using a sliding price scale or subject to escalation based on a contingency will be evaluated as noncompliant. Other than firm fixed-price offers will be evaluated as noncompliant. The price evaluation will document the reasonableness of the proposed total evaluated price for the apparent successful offeror. For the purposes of identifying the order past performance evaluations will be conducted, offers shall be ranked according to price, from lowest to highest.

(d) The contracting officer shall seek relevant performance information on all offerors based on:

(1) the past and present efforts provided by the offeror

(2) data independently obtained from other government and commercial sources.

Recent contracts are defined as those on which some portion of performance occurred during the last three (3) years from date of receipt of proposal. Relevant performance includes present/past performance effort involving similar scope and magnitude of effort as this solicitation. Relevancy ratings are defined in Table 1 below.

Table 1. Past Performance Relevancy Ratings Rating Definition Very Relevant Present/past performance effort involved essentially the same scope and magnitude of effort as this solicitation https://www.acquisition.gov/

Relevant Present/past performance effort involved similar scope and magnitude of effort as this solicitation.

Somewhat Relevant Present/past performance effort involved some of the scope and magnitude of effort as this solicitation.

Not Relevant Present/past performance effort involved little or none of the scope and magnitude of effort as this solicitation.

In evaluating past performance, greater consideration may be given to information on those contracts deemed most relevant to the effort described in this solicitation. The purpose of the past performance evaluation is to allow the government to assess the offeror’s ability to perform the effort described in this solicitation, based on the offeror’s demonstrated present and past performance. The assessment process will result in an overall performance confidence assessment of Substantial Confidence, Satisfactory Confidence, Limited Confidence, No Confidence, or Neutral Confidence as defined in Table2 below. Offerors with no relevant past or present performance history or with a performance record so limited that no confidence assessment rating can be reasonably assigned shall receive the rating "Neutral Confidence," meaning the rating is treated neither favorably nor unfavorably.

Table 2. Past Performance Confidence Ratings Rating Definition Substantial Confidence Based on the offeror’s performance record, the government has a high expectation that the offeror will successfully perform the required effort Satisfactory Confidence Based on the offeror’s performance record, the government has an expectation that the offeror will successfully perform the required effort Limited Confidence Based on the offeror’s performance record, the government has a low expectation that the offeror will successfully perform the required effort No Confidence Based on the offeror’s performance record, the government has no expectation that the offeror will be able to successfully perform the required effort Unknown Confidence No performance record is identifiable or the offeror’s performance record is so limited that no confidence assessment rating can be reasonablly assigned.

(e) Offerors may be asked to clarify certain aspects of their proposal and respond to adverse past performance information to which the offeror has not previously had an opportunity to respond. Adverse past performance is defined as past performance information that supports a less than satisfactory rating on any evaluation element or any unfavorable comments received fromsources without a formal rating system.

(f) If the lowest priced evaluated offer is judged to have a Substantial Confidence performance assessment, that offer represents the best value for the government and the evaluation process stops at this point. Award shall be made to that offeror without further consideration of any other offers.

(g) If the lowest priced offeror is not judged to have a Substantial Confidence performance confidence assessment, the next lowest priced offeror will be evaluated and the process will continue (in order by price) until an offeror is judged to have a Substantial Confidence performance confidence assessment or until all offerors are evaluated. The Source Selection Authority shall then make an integrated assessment best value award decision.

(h) Clarifications and communications, as defined in FAR 15.306, do not constitute discussions. The government intends to evaluate proposals and make award without discussions. However, the government may determine it is necessary to conduct discussions.

(i) 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 negotiations after its receipt, unless a written notice of withdrawal is received before award.

52.212-3 OFFEROR REPRESENTATIONS AND CERTIFICATIONS--COMMERCIAL ITEMS (NOV 2017)
