Award will be based on the Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) method. Quotes will be evaluated based on price, technical acceptability and contractor responsibility determination.

The government will award a contract resulting from this solicitation to the responsible contractor whose quote confirming with the solicitation will be most advantageous to the government, price and other factors considered.

The following factors will be used to evaluate quote.

a. Price.

Vendors are required to provide a quote that consists of the base and the option period.

Quotes will be evaluated on the Total Evaluated Price (TEP) resulting from the total amounts of CLIN 0001 and 1001. The contract will include FAR Clause 52.217-8, Option to Extend Services, with the potential to extend the contract an additional 6 months beyond the awarded contract performance period. In the event the Government requires continued performance, the Government’s evaluation of prices proposed will be considered fair and reasonable as applied to an extension of services. Should an extension of services be required rates will be adjusted only as result of revisions to applicable prevailing Department of Labor wage rates. Unbalanced prices may serve as a basis for rejection of the quote.

The evaluation of the option shall not obligate the Government to exercise the option.

The total evaluated price consists of the base and the option period. The price evaluation will document the reasonableness of the total evaluated price. The Government intends to award based on initial responses, therefore, you are encouraged to quote your most advantageous pricing to include discounts, in the initial response, so the Government can determine a fair and reasonable price.

b. Technical Acceptability.

Vendors are required to provide a management/staffing plan to manage personnel to meet the requirements of the contract. This plan must include recruitment, hiring and development strategies for maintaining 100% coverage and clearly state how personnel meet or exceed the required skills and qualifications noted in the Performance Work

Unacceptable Management/Staffing Plan does not include recruitment, hiring and development strategies for maintaining 100% coverage to include how personnel meets or exceeds the required skills and qualifications noted in PWS

c. Contractor Responsibility Determination.

A contractor is deemed responsible if they have no negative entries in the System for

Award Management (SAM) and Excluded Parties List System (EPLS).

9. Technical Evaluation.

If the Government receives five (5) or fewer quotes, all quotes will be evaluated for technical acceptability. If the Government receives five (5) or more quotes the Government will only select the five (5) lowest priced quotes and then evaluate them for technical acceptability. The

Government reserves the right to evaluate additional quotes for technical acceptability if in the

Government’s best interest. If additional quotes are evaluated for technical acceptability, they will be selected in the order of total evaluated price.
