(ix) The provision at FAR 52.212-2, Evaluation—Commercial Items (Oct 2014), applies to this acquisition. Specific evaluation criteria is included in paragraph (a) of this provision:

i. Price; and

ii. Past Performance.

FAR 52.212-2 Addenda:

A. The Government seeks to award to the responsible offeror with whom provides a complete quote and conforms to the requirements of the solicitations herein. Unacceptable, unsatisfactory rated offerors will be ineligible for award. Offerors are cautioned to provide all information requested under the Addenda to FAR 52.212-1. Failure to provide a complete quote may result in an unacceptable determination and therefore ineligible for award.

B. Evaluation shall be conducted as follows:

1. Completeness – does the offer conform and provide all requirements outlined within the solicitation. This includes but is not limited to completing FAR 52.212-3 Representations and Certifications within the System for Award Management (SAM).

2. Factor 1: Price – Offerors shall be sorted by price in ascending order from lowest priced to highest priced by the Total Evaluated Price (TEP).

a. The TEP will be calcluated based upon the responses within Attachment 3 Bid Schedule. The quantities will be multiplied by the unit price to confirm extended total amounts. The sum of all extended amounts will equate to the offeror’s proposed price.

b. In order to meet the requirements of FAR Parts 6 and 17, the Government will evaluate the option to extend services under FAR Clause 52.217-8 by adding one-half of the offeror’s final option period prices to the offeror’s total proposed price. Offerors are required only to price the base and option CLINs.

Offerors shall NOT submit a price for the potential six-month extension of services period.

c. The offeror’s Total Evaluated Price (TEP) will include the base period, all option periods, and the potential six-mont extension of services period.

d. The techniques and procedures described under FAR 13.106-3 will be the primary means of assessing offers’ reasonableness.

3. Factor 2: Past Performance – The Government will review Attachment 4 Past

Performance Worksheet in accordance with FAR 13.106-2(b)(3). In the event complete, acceptable offerors are unable to provide three (3) references, the missing references will be rated neutral as neither favorable nor unfavorable. For evaluation purposes, recent is defined as within three years from issuance of the solicitation. For evaluation purposes, relevant is defined as within the scope of work identified within Attachment 1.

Below is the scale for evaluation:

Rating Factor

- Neutral 3 Exceptional 2 Very Good 1 Satisfactory 0 Unsatisfactory

Offerors will be afforded the opportunity to respond to negative past performance information obtained by the Government.

4. Best Value Determination – The Government will conduct an integrated assessment of the complete, acceptable offers to determine best value on a minimum of three (3) offerors from lowest to highest priced, unless fewer are received. As such, this may result in award to a higher priced, greater past performance rated offeror.

(See 28.305(c) for treatment of contracts subject to the Defense Base Act).

(b) General liability:

(1) The contracting officer shall require bodily injury liability insurance coverage written on the comprehensive form of policy of at least $1,000,000 per occurrence.

(2) Property damage liability insurance shall be required only in special circumstances as determined by the agency.

(c) Company Owned Automobile liability. The contracting officer shall require automobile liability insurance written on the comprehensive form of policy. The policy shall provide for bodily injury and property damage liability covering the operation of all automobiles used in connection with performing the contract. Policies covering automobiles operated in the United States shall provide coverage of at least $500,000 per person and $1,000,000 per occurrence for bodily injury and $350,000 per occurrence for property damage. The amount of liability coverage on other policies shall be commensurate with any legal requirements of the locality and sufficient to meet normal and customary claims.
