SECTION M - EVALUATION FACTORS FOR AWARD

EVALUATION FACTORS FOR AWARDS

THIS SECTION IS FOR SOLICITATION PURPOSES ONLY. THIS SECTION WILL BE PHYSICALLY

REMOVED FROM ANY RESULTANT AWARD, BUT WILL BE DEEMED INCORPORATED BY

REFERENCE.

1. The Government will award a contract resulting from this solicitation to the responsible Offeror whose offer conforming to the solicitation will be most advantageous to the Government, price and other factors considered.

The following factors shall be used in the following order to evaluate offers:

PART I - TECHNICAL CAPABILITY

PART II - PRICE

2. Offerors are cautioned to submit sufficient information and in the format specified in Section L. Offerors may be asked to clarify certain aspects of their proposal (for example, to 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 from sources without a formal rating system. Communications conducted to resolve minor or clerical errors will not constitute discussions and the Contracting Officer reserves the right to award a contract without the opportunity for proposal revision.

3. BASIS FOR CONTRACT AWARD: This is a competitive best value source selection in which technically acceptable competing Offerors will be evaluated as being equal to Cost or Price; however, cost/price will contribute substantially to the selection decision. By submission of its offer, the Offeror accedes to all solicitation requirements, including terms and conditions, representations and certifications, and technical requirements. Failure to meet a requirement may result in an offer being determined unacceptable. The evaluation process shall proceed as follows:

PART I – TECHNICAL CAPABILITY

1. First, the technical capability of all offers will be evaluated on an ACCEPTABLE / UNACCEPTABLE basis.

a) ACCEPTABLE – Proposal clearly meets the minimum requirements of the solicitation.

b) UNACCEPTABLE – Proposal does not clearly meet the minimum requirements of the solicitation.

2. Evaluators shall assign a rating of ACCEPTABLE / UNACCEPTABLE based on the minimum requirements stated below.

A. Subfactor 1 – Professional Qualifications

1. CRITERIA: Offeror must provide an organizational chart identifying key personnel with a description of its work experience relating to projects similar in scope to those expected under this contract. Additionally, provide a narrative describing the organization’s program management policies, procedures, and processes.

2. MINIMUM STANDARD OF ACCEPTABILITY: The minimum standard of acceptability is met when the Offeror provides:

a) A block diagram identifying the individuals (management and supervisors) associated with this requirement to include:

(1) Key personnel: Each individual’s name, title, duty, years of experience and experience level relating to similar contracts in size and scope. At a minimum, the Offeror shall provide information for the following disciplines:

(a) Project Manager

(b) Site Superintendent

(2) The narratives for the Project Manager and Site Superintendent, must show a minimum of two (2) years’ experience for that respective discipline on a project of similar size and scope.

b) A description of the organization’s program management policies and procedures to include project planning approach, the process for information flow, reporting, and the policies and procedures for maintaining and recruiting qualified staffing throughout the contract period for prime and subcontractor employees in accordance with the SOW.

B. Subfactor 2 – Past Performance

1. MINIMUM STANDARD OF ACCEPTABILITY: The minimum standard of acceptability is met when the Offeror provides (see SECTION L, PART 1, “Subfactor 2” paragraph B for details):

Recent and relevant information regarding an Offeror’s actions under previously awarded contracts.

b) A list, not to exceed ten (10) of the Offeror’s most recent references for similar services with Federal, State, and

Local Governments.

c) Cover letter sent by the Offeror with the Past Performance Questionnaire should request the reference to complete the questionnaire and mail it to 509 CONS/LGCA, ATTN SSgt Theodore Church-Reeves, 660 10th Street, Suite 222, Whiteman AFB MO 65305; or by fax to (660) 687-7083; or by email to 509cons.sollgca@us.af.mil, with receipt no later than the proposal due date.

d) Complete the necessary fill-ins

(1) Contracting Agency/Customer

(2) Contract Number

(3) Contract type

(4) Project title and brief description of contract effort

(5) Period of performance

(6) Contract value at time of award

(7) Current value, including all changes and exercised options

(8) Contracting Officer’s name, address and telephone number

2. The Evaluation Team will be accomplished by reviewing aspects of an Offerors recent and relevant past performance and will primarily rely on information provided by Offeror’s completed past performance questionnaires and/or from the Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS). However, the

Government may use information previously obtained from past performance questionnaires or data independently obtained from other government and commercial sources in the evaluation process. In the event an Offeror submits a Past Performance Questionnaire and it is subsequently determined that the referenced project was formally evaluated in the CPARS, CPARS ratings shall take precedence.

3. First, each past performance reference shall undergo a recency determination. In order to be determined recency, the contract effort shall have been performed during the past three (3) years from the date of issuance of this solicitation.

4. Next, each recent past performance reference shall undergo a relevancy determination. Relevant performance includes performance of efforts that are similar in scope, magnitude and complexity to the effort described in this solicitation. Relevant past performance consists of installing commercial grade slat metal fencing, privacy fencing with vertical elements, and/or chain-link fencing in a commercial environment. An overall relevancy determination of the Offerors present and past performance, including joint ventures, subcontractors and/or teaming partners, will be made. All relevant past performance references will be equally weighted and used to establish the Offerors overall relevancy.

5. In determining relevancy for individual contracts, consideration will be given to the effort, or portion of the effort, being proposed by the Offeror, joint ventures, subcontractors and/or teaming partners whose contract is being reviewed and evaluated. The following relevancy definitions apply:

VERY RELEVANT: Present/past performance effort involved essentially the same scope and magnitude of effort and complexities this solicitation requires.

RELEVANT: Present/Past performance effort involved similar scope and magnitude of effort and complexities this solicitation requires.

SOMEWHAT RELEVANT: Present/past performance effort involved some of the scope and magnitude of effort and complexities this solicitation requires.

NOT RELEVANT: Present/past performance effort involved little or none of the scope and magnitude of effort and complexities this solicitation requires.

6. When relevant performance record indicates performance problems, the Government will consider the number and severity of the problems and the appropriateness and effectiveness of any corrective actions taken (not just planned or promised). The Government may review more recent contracts or performance evaluations to ensure corrective actions have been implemented and to evaluate their effectiveness.

7. Technical Capability will be evaluated as acceptable/unacceptable. Past Performance and Professional

Qualifications subfactors will be weighted equally. A Past Performance subfactor rating of ACCEPTABLE will be required. A Professional Qualifications subfactor rating of ACCEPTABLE will be required.

PART II – PRICE PROPOSAL

A. Next, offers that are deemed technically acceptable shall be ranked according to price, including option prices. The Offeror’s price proposal will be submitted in a separate volume. No price information is to be included in the past performance sections of the proposal.

B. The Government will evaluate offers for award purposes by adding the total price for all options to the total price for the basic requirement. Each Offeror’s price proposal will be evaluated for completeness and reasonableness. Unrealistically low proposed costs/prices may be grounds for eliminating a proposal from competition either on the basis that either the Offeror does not understand the requirement or the Offeror has made an unrealistic proposal. Proposed unit prices, including options, will be evaluated for unbalanced pricing IAW FAR

15.404-1(g). Unbalanced pricing exists when, despite an acceptable total evaluated price, the price of one or more contract line items or sub-line item(s) appear to be significantly overstated or understated as indicated by the application of cost or price analysis techniques. Evaluation of options shall not obligate the Government to exercise the option(s).

C. An Offeror’s proposal may be rejected if the Contracting Officer determines the lack of realistic, balanced, or reasonable price information contained in any portion of an Offerors price proposal.

3. The Government intends to award a contract without discussions with respective Offerors. Therefore, the

Offeror’s initial offer should contain that Offeror’s best terms from a price and technical standpoint. The

Government, however, reserves the right to conduct discussions if deemed in its best interest. Prior to discussions, a competitive range may be established and the Offerors within the competitive range will be part of the discussions.

The Contracting Officer may limit the number of proposals in the competitive range to the greatest number that will permit an efficient competition among the most highly rated proposals.
