Addendum to 52.212-2 Evaluation-Commercial Products and Commercial Services.

The following is inserted as new paragraph (d) of the provision:

(d)BASIS FOR CONTRACT AWARD Best value: Technical acceptability, Past Performance, and Price shall be used to evaluate quotes. All technically acceptable offers will be treated equally except for their prices and performance records. Any quote that does not conform to the RFQ submission requirements will be considered non-responsive and will not be evaluated. Any quote with an unacceptable technical rating will not considered for award. A quote with no past performance will receive a neutral past performance rating. The Government reserves the right to award a contract to other than the lowest quote if the difference in the Past Performance rating of another offeror with a higher quote justifies the higher price premium.

A. Evaluation Approach: Technical Acceptability

The Government will evaluate technical quotes on an acceptable/unacceptable basis and assign an Acceptable or Unacceptable rating as described below. A rating of unacceptable in one or more technical subfactors may constitute an overall rating of Unacceptable for the technical evaluation. The offeror's quote shall, at a minimum, address each of the subfactors outlined below as they apply to the Statement of Work (SOW) and specifications.

Technical Acceptability Ratings, Defined Rating Definition Acceptable: Quote clearly meets the minimum requirements of the solicitation.

2. Pre-Airshow tasks

(ii) Relevant contract performance effort involved similar scope, magnitude of effort, and complexities to that required by this solicitation. The Government will assess relevancy for each contract.

FAR 28.307-2, Liability:

(a) Workers’ compensation and employer’s liability. Contractors are required to comply with applicable Federal and

State workers’ compensation and occupational disease statutes. If occupational diseases are not compensable under those statutes, they shall be covered under the employer’s liability section of the insurance policy, except when contract operations are so commingled with a contractor’s commercial operations that it would not be practical to require this coverage. Employer’s liability coverage of at least $100,000 shall be required, except in States with exclusive or monopolistic funds that do not permit workers’ compensation to be written by private carriers. (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 $500,000 per occurrence. (2) Property damage liability insurance shall be required only in special circumstances as determined by the agency.

(c) 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 $200,000 per person and $500,000 per occurrence for bodily injury and $20,000 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.

(d) Aircraft public and passenger liability. When aircraft are used in connection with performing the contract, the contracting officer shall require aircraft public and passenger liability insurance. Coverage shall be at least $200,000 per person and $500,000 per occurrence for bodily injury, other than passenger liability, and $200,000 per occurrence for property damage. Coverage for passenger liability bodily injury shall be at least $200,000 multiplied by the number of seats or passengers, whichever is greater.
