SECTION SF 30 BLOCK 14 CONTINUATION PAGE

The following items are applicable to this modification:

SUMMARY OF CHANGES

SECTION SF 1449 - CONTINUATION SHEET

The following have been modified:

52.212-2 EVALUATION--COMMERCIAL ITEMS (JAN 1999)

(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. The following factors shall be used to evaluate offers:

(1) TECHNICAL

(2) PRESENT/PAST PERFORMANCE

(3) PRICE

(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. The Government may determine that an offer is unacceptable if the option prices are significantly unbalanced. Evaluation of options shall not obligate the Government to exercise the option(s).

(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.

(End of provision)

Addendum to FAR 52.212-2:

This is a competitive Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) source selection in accordance with the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Part 12 and Part 15. By submission of its offer in accordance with the instructions provided in clause FAR 52.212-1, Instructions To Offerors (and its addendum), the offeror accedes to the terms of this model contract. All technically acceptable offers will be treated equally except for price and past performance record. Failure to meet a requirement may result in an offer being determined “Unacceptable.” The evaluation process will proceed as follows:

A. Technical Acceptability. Initially, the Government technical evaluation team will evaluate the technical proposals by assigning an Acceptable or Unacceptable rating (see Table 1 below). The offeror shall submit the following certification/License and documents. The copy of certification must be current on the date of receipt of proposal(s), and maintained throughout the life of the contract. The proposals will be evaluated against the following subfactors:

Subfactor 1 – License/Certification:

(a) Valid and current certificate of RCRA Hazardous Waste Training (40 CFR Part 265.16) and DOT Hazardous Material Training (49 CFR Part 172 Subpart H) certifications;

OR

Japanese Specially Controlled Industrial Waste Manager Training (特別管理産業廃棄物管理責任者

講習) under GOJ Waste Management and Public Cleansing Law (廃棄物の処理及び清掃に関する

法律) OR Equivalent per Article 8-7.2. a-h of Ordinance of Ministry of the Environmental Waste Management and Public Cleaning Law 廃棄物の処理及び清掃に関する法律施行規則第

八条の十七の二 (Please refer to the Attachment 4)

(b) Valid Drivers License (regular vehicle size)

(c) Valid Forklift License

Subfactor 2 – Spill Response Information: Provide the company’s specific spill response plan in written English. The plan shall be summarized within 5 pages (Paper size: Letter size or A4 with font size of 10 - 12) including at least the following information:

Emergency call roster Spill kit information (spill response material, quantity, inventory list) Spill Response Procedures (including chart and /or drawing as needed)

Table 1, Technical Acceptability Ratings Rating Description

Acceptable Proposal clearly meets the minimum requirements of the solicitation.

Unacceptable Proposal does not clearly meet the minimum requirements of the solicitation.

Note: The technical proposal must “Pass” all of the subfactors to be determined “Acceptable.” There will be no point scores assigned, only “Pass” or “Fail.” In order to be considered “Acceptable,” there must be a “Pass” rating in every subfactor. Even if a proposal fails a subfactor, the evaluators will continue to assess the remaining portions of the proposal; the entire proposal must be evaluated. In order to be considered awardable, there must be a “Pass” rating in every subfactor. Only those proposals determined to be technically “Acceptable,” either initially or as a result of discussions, will be considered for award.

B. Past Performance. Next, using questionnaires, the Government will seek recent and relevant performance information on all technically acceptable offerors based on the references provided by the offeror and data independently obtained from other Government or commercial sources.

(i) Recent performance information includes relevant contracts performed for the Department of Defense, or Government of Japan, or US Government agencies, or commercial customers within the last three (3) years from the issuance date of the solicitation.

(ii) Relevant performance includes performance of efforts that is similar in scope, magnitude, and complexity described in this solicitation. The Government will use the relevancy definitions and ratings in Table 2 below when assessing for relevancy:

Table 2. Past Performance Relevancy Ratings

Rating Definition Rating Definition Very Relevant Present/past performance effort involved essentially the same scope and magnitude of effort and complexities this solicitation 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.

(iii) Performance Quality Assessment: The Government will consider the quality of recent and relevant efforts.

For each of the recent and relevant past performance information reviewed, the performance quality of work will be assessed and assigned ratings based on the Quality Assessment Criteria evaluated under Paragraph 4 of Past Performance Survey (Solicitation Attachment 3).

The Past Performance Evaluation results in an assessment of the offeror’s probability of meeting the solicitation requirements. Offerors must receive a past performance rating of “Acceptable” to be eligible for award. Past performance information based on the experience of proposed key personnel and/or any subcontractors will not be considered as past performance information for the principle offeror. For joint ventures, the government may consider the relevant past performance history of the individual joint venture partner of the prime contractor. If at least one partner receives an “acceptable” rating, the teaming partners will receive an “acceptable” past performance rating overall.

The Past Performance factor will receive one of the ratings in Table 3 below:

Table 3, Past Performance Evaluation Ratings Rating Description

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.

Note: In the case of an offeror without record of relevant past performance or for whom information on past performance is not available or so sparse that meaningful past performance rating can be reasonably assigned, the offeror may not be evaluated favorably or unfavorably on past performance (see FAR 15.305(a)(2)(iv)).

Therefore, the offeror shall be determined to have an unknown past performance. In the context of acceptability/unacceptability, “Unknown” shall be considered as “Acceptable.”

C. Price Evaluation. Lastly, the Government will evaluate all offers with acceptable technical and past performance ratings by price, including all option prices. An offeror’s proposed prices will be determined by multiplying the quantities identified in the Price Schedule by the proposed unit price for proposed unit for each Contract Line Item Number to confirm the extended amount for each. The price evaluation will document the reasonableness and completeness of the proposed total evaluated price. The Government reserves the right to perform price realism analysis.

In order to meet the requirements of FAR Part 6 and FAR Part 17, the price equivalent to the six (6) months extension of services authorized by FAR 52.217-8 will be evaluated separately, and will be factored as part of the total evaluated price for award. The Government will calculate prices for a quantity equivalent to six (6) months by prorating prices offered for CLIN 0001 and all corresponding CLINs under Options of FAR 52.217-9 in order to evaluate the extension of services authorized by FAR 52.217-8.

D. Offerors are cautioned to submit sufficient information and in the format specified in the FAR 52.212-1 and/or its addendum. Offerors may be asked to clarify certain aspects of their proposal. Communication 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.

E. 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.
