End of Provision Addendum

ADDENDUM TO FAR 52.212-2

This is an Addendum to 52.212-2 EVALUATION--COMMERCIAL ITEMS (OCT 2014)

1. BASIS FOR AWARD: This is a lowest price technically acceptable (LPTA) best value decision process in which the best value is expected to result from selection of the technically acceptable proposal with the lowest evaluated price. 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. All technically acceptable offers shall be treated equally except for their prices and past performance. Failure to meet any technical factors may result in an offer being determined technically unacceptable. Offerors must clearly identify any exception to the solicitation terms and conditions and provide complete accompanying rationale. Only the solicitation packages of responsive offerors whose proposal contains all parts and requirements shall be evaluated. The following shall be used to evaluate each offer:

2. Evaluation criteria: Evaluation criteria consists of factors and sub-factors. Each proposal will be evaluated against three evaluation criteria: Price, Technical and Past Performance.

A. Factor 1 - Price.

• The Government shall rank all technically acceptable offers by price, including option prices. An offeror’s proposed prices will be determined by multiplying the quantities by the proposed unit price for each Contract Line Item Number (CLIN) or Sub Contract Line Item Number (SubCLIN) to confirm the extended amount for each. Copies of the Pricing Schedule will be necessary in order to submit a proposal for each Option Year. Price will be evaluated in order to determine if it is fair, reasonable and balanced. In instances where an Offeror receives an acceptable technical rating, yet the offeror’s proposed prices appear exceptionally low, offerors may be requested to address this disparity, providing evidence of their capability and / or experience providing similar service(s) at similar price(s). An example of an unrealistically low proposed price would be proposed price that were so low that the Government could not make a reasonable determination that an Offeror could successfully attract, hire and retain qualified personnel for the labor force proposed. An exceptionally or unrealistically low offer may pose an unacceptable risk to the Government and may be grounds for eliminating a proposal from the competition.

• Options. The Government will evaluate offers for award purposes by adding the total price for all options to the total price for the basic requirement. The Government may determine that an offer is unacceptable if the option prices are significantly unbalanced. The total evaluated price will consist of the sum of all Contract Line Item Numbers (CLINs) for the base year and option years, plus 50% of the last option year (four) per FAR Clause 52.217-8 Option to Extend Services. Note: Offerors shall not include a price for the Option to Extend Services.

o Note: Evaluation of options shall not obligate the Government to exercise the option(s).

B. Factor 2 - Technical. Initially, the Government’s Technical Evaluation Team shall evaluate each offeror’s technical information and assign ratings of acceptable or unacceptable. Each proposal shall be evaluated against the following subfactors:

• Subfactor 1: Quality Control Approach: The Offeror shall provide a preliminary Quality Control

Approach that addresses all of the Service Delivery Summary items as specified in the Performance Work Statement (PWS). Note: the final Quality Control Plan shall be submitted to the Contracting Officer within ten (10) calendar days of contract award.

• Subfactor 2: Technical Capability: Does the offeror have at least five (5) years of management experience in the Packing, Containerization and Local Drayage industry? The offeror shall submit a listing of the types of management experiences, to include the number of years of experience.

Note: The overall Technical acceptability will be rated at the subfactor level, with each subfactor being assigned a rating of acceptable or unacceptable. The offeror’s proposal must be rated acceptable in all Technical subfactors to receive an overall rating of acceptable in order to be eligible for the award.

Technical Ratings

Rating Acceptable Proposal meets the requirements of the solicitation.

Unacceptable Proposal does not meet the requirements of the solicitation.

C. Factor 3 - Past Performance. The Government will evaluate the quality and extent of each offeror’s performance deemed relevant to the requirements of this solicitation. The Government will use information submitted by the offeror and other sources such as other Federal Government offices and commercial sources, to assess past performance. The Government will evaluate the list of past performance information submitted by each offeror – no more than three (3) – of the most relevant contracts performed for Federal agencies and commercial customers within the last f i v e (5) years that meet the requirements of this solicitation.

In addition, the Government will evaluate up to three (3) past performance questionnaires, with each proposal submitted for past performances in the past five (5) years. The purpose of the past performance evaluation is to allow the Government to assess the offeror’s ability to perform the effort described in the solicitation, based on the offeror’s demonstrated present and past performance.

Note: In the case of an offeror without a record of relevant past performance or for whom information on past performance is not available or so sparse that no meaningful past performance rating can be reasonably assigned, the offeror may not be evaluated favorably or unfavorably on past performance. Therefore, the offeror shall be determined to have unknown past performance. In the context of acceptability / unacceptability, unknown shall be considered acceptable. Past Performance will be rated on an acceptable or unacceptable basis using the following ratings. The offer’s proposal must be rated acceptable in order to be eligible for award.

Past Performance Evaluation Ratings

Rating

Acceptable

Based on the offeror’s performance record, the Government has a reasonable expectation that the offeror will successfully perform the required effort, or the offeror’s performance record is unknown.

Unacceptable

Based on the offeror’s performance record, the Government has no reasonable expectation that the offeror will be able to successfully perform the required effort.

Unknown Confidence (Acceptable)

No recent/relevant performance record is available or the offeror’s performance record is so sparse that no meaningful confidence assessment rating can be reasonably assigned.

3. A written notice of award or acceptance of an offer, mailed or otherwise furnished to the successful offeror 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 an offer), whether or not there are negotiations after its receipt, unless a written notice of withdrawal is received before award.

4. The Government intends to award a contract without discussions with respective offerors. The Government, however, reserves the right to conduct discussions, if deemed in its best interest.

(End of provision)

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

(a) 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.

Award will be made on the basis of the total lowest evaluated price of proposals meeting or exceeding the acceptability standards for non-cost factors. The following factors shall be used to evaluate offers in accordance with FAR Parts 12 and 13. The following factors shall be used to evaluate offers:

(1) Price

(2) Technical (Acceptable or Unacceptable)

(3) Past Performance (Acceptable, Unacceptable, or Unknown, which equals Acceptable)

(b) Options. The Government will evaluate offers for award purposes by adding the total price for all options to the total price for the basic requirement, to include the possibility to extend services. The Government may determine that an offer is unacceptable if the option prices are significantly unbalanced. Note: Evaluation of options shall not obligate the Government to exercise the option(s). The Government will make the determination that an offer is unacceptable if the prices are significantly unbalanced. In accordance with (IAW) FAR 52.217-8, Option to Extend Services, offerors prices shall be evaluated by adding six (6) months of service utilizing the pricing of the final option year. Note: The final option year shall be Option Year four (4).

(c) A written notice of award or acceptance of an offer, mailed or otherwise furnished to the successful offeror 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 an offer), whether or not there are negotiations after its receipt, unless a written notice of withdrawal is received before award.
