This acquisition will utilize the lowest price technically acceptable (LPTA) source selection process in which the government intends to award to an offeror with a technically acceptable proposal and the lowest overall total evaluated price.

Proposals that are unrealistic in terms of technical acceptability or price may be rejected at any time during the evaluation process. The Government reserves the right to establish a competitive range; discussions or negotiation may be conducted with all offerors in the competitive range. Offerors may be required to participate in telephone discussions or in face-to-face oral discussions at the 1st Special Operations Contracting Squadron, 350 Tully Street, Hurlburt Field, FL.

Offerors may be given the opportunity to clarify certain aspects of their written proposals (e.g., defining the relevance of the offeror’s technical information) or to resolve minor clerical errors. Any such exchange between the offeror and the Government will be for clarification only and will not constitute discussions within the meaning of FAR 15.306(a).

BASIS FOR CONTRACT AWARD: By submission of its offer, the offeror accedes to all solicitation requirements, including terms and conditions, representations and certifications. The Government intends to award one contract to the offeror deemed responsible in accordance with Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR), as supplemented, whose proposal conforms to the Request for Proposal (RFP) requirements including all stated terms, conditions, representations, certifications, and all other information required by the RFP and is judged, based on the evaluation criteria, to represent the lowest price technically acceptable to the Government.

The Government intends to evaluate proposals and make award without discussions (except clarifications as described in FAR 15.306(a)) however, IAW FAR 15.306(a) & (b) prior to establishing the competitive range of proposals for this acquisition, the contracting officer may conduct discussions, request clarifications, and/or have communications with offerors to determine technical acceptability of their proposal IAW the solicitation requirements. Therefore, the offeror’s initial proposal should contain the offeror’s best terms from a technical, performance and price standpoint.

The evaluation process shall proceed as follows:

1. All offerors’ cover pages and (if applicable) teaming arrangements will be reviewed for completeness in accordance with the elements stated in the addendum to FAR 52.212-1, Instructions to Offerors – Commercial Items, incorporated into this solicitation to determine the offeror as responsive or non-responsive. Only those offers determined complete and responsive will be considered for further evaluation.

FACTOR 1: PRICE: All offers will be ranked by price:

2.2 Price proposals conforming to all requirements of this solicitation will be ranked based on the Total Evaluated Price:

2.2.1 Total Evaluated Price = Total Evaluated Price for number of classes multiplied by offerors price per class.

2.2.1.1 Unit prices shall be used in the event that extended prices are calculated incorrectly.

2.2.1.1.1 Prices will be evaluated for fair and reasonableness:.

2.2.1.2 The Government may use various price analysis techniques and procedures to ensure a fair and reasonable price; and

FA4417-15-R-0010 Attachment 2 Advanced Driving Class Expendable Training Vehicles Addendums -1&-2

2.2.2 Unrealistically low prices, initially or subsequently, may be grounds for eliminating a proposal from competition.

2.2.2.1 All CLIN prices will be evaluated to determine if any prices are unbalanced IAW FAR 15.404-1(g).

3. FACTOR 2: TECHNICAL: The first five lowest priced offers will be evaluated for technical acceptability. If none of the first five lowest priced offers are determined technically acceptable, the technical evaluation will continue in increments of five until all offers are evaluated or until a technically acceptable offer is identified.

Procedures at FAR 15.306, Exchanges with Offerors After Receipt of Proposals, may be implemented to determine technical acceptability in accordance with the solicitation requirements. Only those offerors determined to be technically acceptable will be considered for further evaluation.

3.1 Part 1: Logistics Schedule:

3.1.1. The contractor shall submit a programmed logistics schedule that demonstrates how the training vehicles will be purchased, prepped, transferred to the course location, and disposed of in an efficient manner. Content within the schedule shall include a linear timeline, in calendar days, showing the cradle to grave process of delivering up to twenty-five vehicles per course.

3.2 Part 2: Resumes:

3.2.1. The contractor shall submit documentation showing the experience of the proposed on-site Service Technician and/or resume of the proposed Service Technician for on-site support. Resume must demonstrate experience commensurate for the service technician related work for the past three years in accordance with the attached Performance Work Statement.

3.2.1. The rating assigned to this factors will be based on the written technical proposal. The validity and thoroughness of the offeror’s technical proposal will be evaluated as specific evidence of the offeror’s understanding and capability to perform this requirement. An overall rating will be assigned; failure to be assigned an acceptable rating in any element will render the proposal unacceptable:

Definitions: Evaluators shall assign a rating which falls within one of the following definitions according to the degree which the offeror’s technical proposal meets the minimum requirement described below:

Acceptable: Proposal clearly meets the minimum requirements of the solicitation.

Unacceptable: Proposal does not clearly meet the minimum requirements of the solicitation.
