Addendum to FAR 52.212-1 Instructions to Offerors - Commercial Items

1. The purpose of these instructions is to prescribe the format of the quotes in response to this RFQ, FA480021Q0017 VTE Maintenance & Repair Service and describe the approach for the development and presentation of the request for quote data. This is designed to ensure the essential information required for evaluation is submitted.

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

3. To assure the timely and equitable evaluation of quotes, quoters shall follow the instructions contained herein.

Quoters are required to meet and address all of the requirements, including terms and conditions, representations and certifications, and technical requirements. Failure to meet a requirement may result in a quotes being deemed ineligible for award. Quotes must clearly identify any exception to the terms and conditions and provide complete accompanying rationale. The quotes when submitted, shall be comprehensive, complete, self-sufficient, and respond directly to the requirements of the RFQ. Elaborate artwork, expensive paper/binding and expensive visual aids are neither necessary nor desired.

End of Section

52.212-2 EVALUATION--COMMERCIAL ITEMS (OCT 2014)

(a) This competitive Request for Quote (RFQ) will be conducted in accordance with Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Part 12, Acquisition of Commercial Items, and FAR Part 13, Simplified Acquisition Procedures. The Government will award a contract resulting from this RFQ to the responsible quoter whose quote conforms to the RFQ and will be most advantageous to the Government, price and other factors considered. The following factors shall be used to evaluate quotes:

1. Price

2. Technical

3. Past Performance Information

All quoters will be ranked by total contract price from low to high, and will then be evaluated for both Technical and Past Performance. Technical and Past Performance will be evaluated on a "Acceptable/ Unacceptable" basis. Quoters shall receive a "Acceptable" rating for both Technical and Past Performance in order to be eligible for award. The government will evaluate the lowest priced quoter for technical acceptability, past performance acceptability and price reasonableness. Should the lowest priced quoter not receive an acceptable technical and past performance rating and cannot be remedied through minor corrections, the process will continue in order of price until quoter with acceptable technical and past performance rating and fair and reasonable price are identified. Award will be made to the quoter with the lowest proposed price and receiving an "Acceptable" rating for both Technical and Past Performance.

Quoters are cautioned to submit sufficient information and in the format specified in these preparation instructions. Quoters may be asked to clarify certain aspects of their proposal or respond to adverse past performance information to which the quoter has not previously had an opportunity to respond.

A written notice of award or acceptance of an offer mailed or otherwise furnished to the successful offeror by the Government within the time for acceptance specified in the offer, shall result in a binding contract without further action by either party. Before the offer's specified expiration time, the Government may accept an offer (or part of a offer), whether or not there are negotiations after its receipt, unless a written notice of withdrawal is received before award.

(b) Options. The Government will evaluate quotes for award purposes by adding the total price for all options to the total price for the basic requirement. The Government may determine that a quote is unacceptable if the option prices are significantly unbalanced. Evaluation of options shall not obligate the Government to exercise the option(s). In accordance with FAR 52.217-8, Option to Extend Services, the Government will evaluate 50% (or 6 months' worth) of the final option year price to determine the price to be fair and reasonable in the case that this extension clause needs to be utilized.

(c) By submission of its quote, in accordance with the instructions in clause 52.212-1 "Instructions to Offerors", the quoter accedes to all solicitation requirements, including terms and conditions, representations and certifications, and Performance Work Statement requirements. All quotes shall be treated equally for technical portions and performance records. Quoters must clearly identify any exception to the solicitation terms and conditions and provide complete accompanying rationale. The evaluation process shall proceed as follows:

EVALUATION OF PRICE

Price will be evaluated using techniques established in FAR 13.106-3(a)(1) to ensure the Government receives a fair, reasonable and balanced price. If the Government cannot determine the proposed pricing to be fair and reasonable, other than cost and pricing data will be obtained from the quoters. The Government will evaluate quotes for award purposes by adding the total price for all CLINS including basic period, option years, and fifty percent (50%) of the last option period price to cover the option to extend services IAW clause 52.217-8.

There is a great expectation of competition for this requirement; quoters are cautioned to present their best price quote up-front. Price quotes shall represent the quoters best effort to respond to the solicitation.

NOTE: Evaluation of the option periods shall not obligate the Government to exercise such options.

Option to Extend Services. Both the solicitation and resultant contract shall contain FAR Clause 52.217-8, entitled "Option to Extend Services". This clause allows for up to an additional six month continued contract performance if required. Interested quoters shall not include pricing in their quote for this clause as fifty percent (50%) of the last option period shall be used for the pricing only if clause 52.217-8 is required.

Materially Unbalanced Quote: If the contracting officer sees a wide variation in prices, the contracting officer can consider the need to amend the solicitation or ask the quoter(s) appropriate questions. Unbalanced pricing poses an unacceptable risk to the Government and may be a reason to reject a quote.

EVALUATION OF TECHNICAL

The technical rating reflects the degree to which the quoters technical volume meets or does not meet the minimum performance or capability requirements. The focus is on the ability of the quote to meet the minimum requirements of the PWS. Each quoter shall submit information clearly identifying how they will meet the following technical criteria:

Sub-Factor 1 - The quoter shall show and be able to define their company's capability to inspect, troubleshoot, identify, repair and/or replace elevator equipment and systems to fully operational capability. Simply restating the statement of work will not qualify as an adequate technical response. Technical evaluations will include an assessment of each quoter's ability to accomplish the technical requirements.

Sub-Factor 2 - The quoter shall show and be able to define their company's capability to perform the necessary inspections and tests as required in accordance with the general guidance ANSI/ASME 17-1, 17-2, and 17-3.

Sub-Factor 3 - The quoter shall show and be able to define their company's capability to respond in-person to the VTE and begin work on routine service calls within 4 hours after receipt of the call from the COR on regular scheduled work days/hours and respond in person to the VTE and begin work on emergency service calls within 2 hours after receipt of the call.

Technical quotes will be evaluated on a "Acceptable/ Unacceptable" basis. To receive a rating of "Acceptable," the quoter must adequately address their plan to meet the above mentioned technical criteria. Quoters must receive a rating of "Acceptable" for technical in order to be eligible for award. Quotes that exceed the evaluation criteria will not receive higher ratings.

TABLE 1. Technical Rating Description Acceptable The quote clearly meets the minimum technical requirements of the solicitation.

Unacceptable The quote does not clearly meet the minimum technical requirements of the solicitation.

EVALUATION OF PAST PERFORMANCE

Past performance shall be evaluated in accordance with FAR 13.106-2(b)(3)(ii). The past performance information to be evaluated on each quoter will be information available in CPARS and PPIRS, and any other source identified by the quoter or the Government. If there is no performance information available the past performance rating will be considered neutral, and therefore will be rated acceptable.

The Government evaluators will conduct an in-depth review and evaluation of all available performance data to determine how closely the work performed under those efforts relates to the effort. The main purpose of the past performance evaluation is to appropriately consider each quoter demonstrated record of contract compliance by supplying products and services that meet user's needs, including business relations, management, schedule and performance quality constraints.

Past Performance shall be evaluated on a "Acceptable/ Unacceptable" basis. In the event of negative comments of a quoters past performance, the contracting officer shall evaluate the comments and make a "Acceptable/ Unacceptable " determination. If a quoter is determined to have "Marginal" or "Unsatisfactory" past performance ratings, they will be given an overall past performance rating of "Unacceptable."

TABLE 2. Past Performance Acceptable Based on the quoters performance record, the Government has a reasonable expectation that the quoter will successfully perform the required effort, or the quoters performance record is unknown. To be rated as "Acceptable", no Marginal or Unsatisfactory ratings can be found in the past performance information.

Unacceptable Based on the quoters performance record, the Government has no reasonable expectation that the quoter will be able to successfully perform the required effort. To be rated "Unacceptable", a negative rating of Marginal or Unsatisfactory will be identified by this office and validated by the Contracting Officer.
