(End of Addendum)

Addendum to FAR 52.212-2, Evaluation-Commercial Items:

This is a competitive source selection in accordance with the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Part 12 and Part 13. 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. Failure to meet a requirement may result in an offer being determined “Unacceptable.” The evaluation process will proceed as follows:

A. Price Evaluation. The Government will evaluate all offers 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 6 months by prorating prices offered for CLIN 0001and all corresponding CLINs under Options of FAR 52.217-9 in order to evaluate the extension of services authorized by FAR 52.217-8.

B. Past Performance. Next, using questionnaires, the Government will seek recent and relevant performance information on all 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 than the effort 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

(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 Present/Past Performance Survey (Solicitation Attachment 4)

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.

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

Table 3, Past Performance Evaluation Ratings

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.”

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.

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.
