Legibility, clarity, and coherence are very important. Provide as specifically as possible the actual methodology you would use for accomplishing and satisfying the requirements. The Offeror shall assume that the Government has no prior knowledge of its capabilities, facilities and experience, and will base the evaluation on the information presented in the Offeror's proposal.

4.0 Specific Proposal Instructions. To assure timely and equitable evaluation of the proposal, the Offeror must follow the instructions contained herein. The proposal must be complete, stand-alone, and respond directly to the requirements of this solicitation. The response shall consist of two (2) separate parts:

4.1 Volume I - Contracting & Pricing. The Offeror's proposal shall include a signed copy of the solicitation, and signed copy of any issued amendments. Complete all contract clause fill-ins if applicable.

4.1.1 Instructions. The CO has determined there is a high probability of adequate price competition in this acquisition. Upon examination of the initial offers, the CO will review this determination and if, in the CO's opinion, adequate price competition exists no additional cost information will be requested. However, if at any time during this competition the CO determines that adequate price competition no longer exists offerors may be required to submit other than certified cost or pricing data to the extent necessary for the CO to determine the reasonableness of the price.

4.1.2 Schedule of Supplies/Services. The Offeror shall complete the Schedule of Supplies/Services of the RFP and submit within Volume I. A unit price shall be proposed and inserted for each Firm Fixed Price (FFP) Contract Line Item Number (CLIN) for each performance period and shall be rounded up to two decimal places.

Do not merely reiterate the objectives or reformulate the requirements specified in the solicitation.

Tab 1: Technical Factors and Sub factors. All the requirements specified in the solicitation are mandatory. The contractor shall address the proposed approach to meeting the minimum performance or capability requirements of each technical Sub factor. The responses will be evaluated against FAR 52.212-2, Evaluation Factors.

Marketing presentations are not wanted and will not be evaluated. Hard and compelling evidence of capabilities is required to receive credit for evaluation factors.

(End of Addenda)

Evaluation Factors for Award FAR 52.212-2 Evaluation - Commercial Items Addendum to 52.212-2(a): Paragraph (a) is tailored as follows:

(a) Basis for Contract Award. The Government intends to award one Firm-Fixed-Priced, Indefinite Delivery, Indefinite Quantity contract for this competitive service acquisition as a 100% small business set aside. Award will be made to the technically acceptable offeror with the lowest evaluated price who is deemed responsible in accordance with FAR 9.104 and whose proposal conforms to the solicitation requirements. The solicitation requirements include all stated terms, conditions, representations, certifications, and all other information required by this solicitation. Unless specifically identified in your proposal, by submission of its offer, the Offeror accedes to all solicitation requirements, including terms and conditions, representations and certifications and technical requirements, in addition to those identified as evaluation factors or sub factors.

Failure to meet a requirement may result in a proposal being determined ineligible for award.

(b) This contract will be awarded as Firm Fixed Price (FFP). It is the Government's intent to evaluate proposals and award a contract IAW FAR 13.5. FAR Part 15 based evaluations will NOT be used for this acquisition. The initial proposal should contain your best terms; however; the Government reserves the right to conduct interchanges if determined necessary by the Contracting Officer to resolve issues such as technical or price, or deal with contract documentation including any other matter in the evaluation process. The contracting officer reserves the right to award a contract without the opportunity to revise proposals.

1.0 Evaluation Process. The Government may consider, throughout the evaluation, the "correction potential" of any proposal. The judgment of such "correctional potential" is within the sole discretion of the Government. If any aspect of an offeror's proposal does not meet the Government's requirements and is not considered correctable, the offer may be ineligible for award. All technically acceptable proposals shall be treated equally except for their cost/price record. Offers will be ranked based on initial assessment of total overall evaluated prices, followed by a full evaluation of Technical Acceptability, then Price Reasonableness of the technically acceptable offer with the lowest evaluated price. Only proposals rated technically acceptable are eligible to receive an award.

1.1 Proposals. The Government will rank proposals based on an initial assessment of offeror's total evaluated prices, followed by a full evaluation of Technical Acceptability and Price Reasonableness as follows: Rank by Total Evaluated Price, as submitted. The Government will rank all proposals by the initially proposed total evaluated price, from lowest to highest, including all ordering periods. An offeror's proposed estimated price will be determined by multiplying the estimated quantities by the proposed unit price for each CLIN. The extended amount for each CLIN will be totaled to obtain the estimated total for each performance period. CLINs 0002, 0102, 0202, 0302 and 0402 are Not to Exceed (NTE) CLINs and are set by the Government; these amounts cannot be changed and the total NTE price will be evaluated as a part of the Total Evaluated Price.

CLINS 0003, 0004, 0103, 0104, 0203, 0204, 0303, 0304, 0403 and 0404 are Estimated Quantities. The estimated total for the basic performance period will then be added to the estimated total for each ordering period to obtain the Total Evaluated Price. The Total Evaluated Price consists of the base and all ordering periods. The contract will include a base ordering plus 4 ordering periods with the potential to extend the contract an additional 6 months beyond the awarded contract performance period IAW FAR 52.217- 8 (Option to Extend Services Clause) which is also included in the evaluation of prices. The price for that period will be determined based on the unit prices proposed for the current option period and will be evaluated at time of award. 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.

1.1.2 Technical Evaluation. If the Government receives three (3) or fewer initial proposals all proposals will be evaluated for Technical Acceptability. If the Government receives more than three (3) initial proposals the Government will only select the three (3) lowest priced proposals and then evaluate them for Technical Acceptability. The Government reserves the right to evaluate additional proposals for technical acceptability if in the Government's best interest. If additional proposals are evaluated for technical acceptability they will be selected in the order of total evaluated price.

1.1.3 Acceptability Ratings. The evaluation factors listed below will be evaluated and receive one of the following ratings:

(i) Acceptable - The proposal clearly meets the minimum requirements of the solicitation.

(ii) Unacceptable - The proposal does not clearly meet the minimum requirements of the solicitation.

1.1.4 Evaluation of Factors. Offerors are advised that their initial submission should be their best effort. Only technically acceptable proposals, either initially or as a result of interchanges, are eligible for award. If award is made without interchanges, proposal revisions will not be permitted. The Government will evaluate the proposals selected above for technical acceptability on an Acceptable/Unacceptable basis. For the technical proposal to be rated as "Acceptable", all technical factors and sub factors must be rated acceptable. If any technical factor or sub factor is rated "Unacceptable" the overall proposal will be rated as "Unacceptable".

(A) Technical Factor # 1 - Management Plan Standard: The offeror shall submit a management plan that illustrates the corporate philosophy and management approach to demonstrate evidence of sound organization, appropriate manning and qualifications proposed, and performance management processes to successfully accomplish tasks delineated in the PWS. The plan should provide evidence of knowledge and capability delivering the services as defined in the solicitation. At a minimum, the plan should:

i. Provide a clear description of the procedures performed to conduct the maintenance and inspections IAW the PWS. These procedures should include, at a minimum, how the offeror will perform Inspection, Testing, and Maintenance (as applicable) to the Trailer Systems and Subsystems IAW the PWS and the referenced regulations. Futhermore, the procedures shall address how the offeror will perform emergency and unscheduled services and repairs IAW the PWS; and reporting procedures for items requiring COR notifications.

The standard has been met when: The offeror adequately demonstrates a sound, comprehensive, realistic, effective, and efficient management approach to provide and manage the appropriate workforce to achieve consistent, efficient, and uninterrupted operations in accordance with the requirements of the PWS.

(B) Technical Factor # 2 -- Quality Control Plan:

Standard: The offeror shall provide a "quality control plan" (QCP) with a complete written system for identifying and correcting deficiencies and degradation in the quality of services before the level of performance becomes unacceptable. At a minimum, the plan should specifically address contract requirements and location

(s) listed and provide the following:

i. The plan shall address responsibilities for oversight of the QCP, functions associated with such oversight, and specify authority to coordinate with the COR and CO. It shall also address the methods used for identifying and preventing in the quality of services being performed and how quality is evaluated. It shall also address the process for corrective action, who will be responsible for the quality control and an organization chart and responsibilities relating to quality control.

The standard has been met when: The offeror adequately demonstrates a sound, comprehensive, realistic, effective, and efficient quality control approach to prevent, and identify and correct deficiencies and degradation of services to achieve consistent, efficient, and acceptable performance service levels in accordance with the requirements of the PWS. The strategies outlined in the plan are realistic to minimize the effects of deficiencies /complaints and designed to efficiently and effectively correct and prevent reoccurrence.

2.0 The Government will conduct a complete Price Analysis using one or more of the techniques defined in FAR 13.106, to determine if the lowest price technically acceptable offer is reasonable.
