52.212-1 AND ADDENDUM

52.212-1 INSTRUCTIONS TO OFFERORS--COMMERCIAL ITEMS (JUN 2008)

(a) North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code and small business size standard. The NAICS code and small business size standard for this acquisition appear in Block

(b) Submission of offers. Submit signed and dated offers to the office specified in this solicitation at or before the exact time specified in this solicitation. Offers may be submitted on the SF 1449, letterhead stationery, or as otherwise specified in the solicitation. As a minimum, offers must show--

(1) The solicitation number;

(2) The time specified in the solicitation for receipt of offers;

(3) The name, address, and telephone number of the offeror;

(4) A technical description of the items being offered in sufficient detail to evaluate compliance with the requirements in the solicitation. This may include product literature, or other documents, if necessary;

(5) Terms of any express warranty;

(6) Price and any discount terms;

(7) "Remit to" address, if different than mailing address;

(8) A completed copy of the representations and certifications at FAR 52.212-3 (see FAR

52.212-3(b) for those representations and certifications that the offeror shall complete electronically);

(9) Acknowledgment of Solicitation Amendments;

(10) Past performance information, when included as an evaluation factor, to include recent and relevant contracts for the same or similar items and other references (including contract numbers, points of contact with telephone numbers and other relevant information); and

(11) If the offer is not submitted on the SF 1449, include a statement specifying the extent of agreement with all terms, conditions, and provisions included in the solicitation. Offers that fail to furnish required representations or information, or reject the terms and conditions of the solicitation may be excluded from consideration.

(c) Period for acceptance of offers. The offeror agrees to hold the prices in its offer firm for 90 calendar days from the date specified for receipt of offers, unless another time period is specified in an addendum to the solicitation.

(d) Product samples. When required by the solicitation, product samples shall be submitted at or prior to the time specified for receipt of offers. Unless otherwise specified in this solicitation, these samples shall be submitted at no expense to the Government, and returned at the sender's request and expense, unless they are destroyed during preaward testing.

(e) Multiple offers. Offerors are encouraged to submit multiple offers presenting alternative terms and conditions or commercial items for satisfying the requirements of this solicitation.

Each offer submitted will be evaluated separately.

(f) Late submissions, modifications, revisions, and withdrawals of offers:

(1) Offerors are responsible for submitting offers, and any modifications, revisions, or withdrawals, so as to reach the Government office designated in the solicitation by the time specified in the solicitation. If no time is specified in the solicitation, the time for receipt is 4:30 p.m., local time, for the designated Government office on the date that offers or revisions are due.

(2)(i) Any offer, modification, revision, or withdrawal of an offer received at the Government office designated in the solicitation after the exact time specified for receipt of offers is ―late‖ and will not be considered unless it is received before award is made, the Contracting Officer determines that accepting the late offer would not unduly delay the acquisition; and--

(A) If it was transmitted through an electronic commerce method authorized by the solicitation, it was received at the initial point of entry to the Government infrastructure not later than 5:00 p.m. one working day prior to the date specified for receipt of offers; or

(B) There is acceptable evidence to establish that it was received at the Government installation designated for receipt of offers and was under the Government's control prior to the time set for receipt of offers; or

(C) If this solicitation is a request for proposals, it was the only proposal received.

(ii) However, a late modification of an otherwise successful offer, that makes its terms more favorable to the Government, will be considered at any time it is received and may be accepted.

(3) Acceptable evidence to establish the time of receipt at the Government installation includes the time/date stamp of that installation on the offer wrapper, other documentary evidence of receipt maintained by the installation, or oral testimony or statements of Government personnel.

(4) If an emergency or unanticipated event interrupts normal Government processes so that offers cannot be received at the Government office designated for receipt of offers by the exact time specified in the solicitation, and urgent Government requirements preclude amendment of the solicitation or other notice of an extension of the closing date, the time specified for receipt of offers will be deemed to be extended to the same time of day specified in the solicitation on the first work day on which normal Government processes resume.

(5) Offers may be withdrawn by written notice received at any time before the exact time set for receipt of offers. Oral offers in response to oral solicitations may be withdrawn orally. If the solicitation authorizes facsimile offers, offers may be withdrawn via facsimile received at any time before the exact time set for receipt of offers, subject to the conditions specified in the solicitation concerning facsimile offers. An offer may be withdrawn in person by an offeror or its authorized representative if, before the exact time set for receipt of offers, the identity of the person requesting withdrawal is established and the person signs a receipt for the offer.

(g) Contract award (not applicable to Invitation for Bids). The Government intends to evaluate offers and award a contract without discussions with offerors. Therefore, the offeror's initial offer should contain the offeror's best terms from a price and technical standpoint. However, the

Government reserves the right to conduct discussions if later determined by the Contracting

Officer to be necessary. The Government may reject any or all offers if such action is in the public interest; accept other than the lowest offer; and waive informalities and minor irregularities in offers received.

(h) Multiple awards. The Government may accept any item or group of items of an offer, unless the offeror qualifies the offer by specific limitations. Unless otherwise provided in the Schedule, offers may not be submitted for quantities less than those specified. The Government reserves the right to make an award on any item for a quantity less than the quantity offered, at the unit prices offered, unless the offeror specifies otherwise in the offer.

52.212-2 AND ADDENDUM

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. All proposals must be based upon Firm Fixed Prices (FFP), FAR 16.202-1. The following factors and subfactors shall be used to evaluate offers:

FACTOR 1 - TECHNICAL CAPABILITY

Subfactor 1 - Licensure

Subfactor 2 - Certifications

Subfactor 3 - Education

Subfactor 4 - Past Experience

FACTOR 2 - PRICE

(b) Options. The Government will evaluate proposals 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 proposal is unacceptable if the option prices are not priced out or 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.

ADDENDA TO 52.212-2 -- Evaluation -- Commercial Items (Jan 1999)

BASIS FOR CONTRACT AWARD: The award will be made to the vendor whose proposal represents the best value to the government. As allowed by FAR 15.101-2, the Lowest Price

Technically Acceptable (LPTA) selection process shall be applied. Award will be made to the vendor who is deemed responsible and responsive that reflects a complete understanding of the

Performance Work Statement (PWS) and represents the best value to the Government based on selection of the technically acceptable proposal with the lowest evaluated price for non-cost factors. To be eligible for award, a proposal must meet all technical requirements, conform to all required terms and conditions, and provide all information required. The technical area will be evaluated on an ―acceptable‖ or ―unacceptable‖ basis. Under the LPTA source selection process, trade-offs are not permitted, proposals are evaluated for acceptability but not ranked using the non-cost/price factors, and exchanges with offerors may occur. If the proposal received is determined to be unacceptable, the vendor may be excluded from competition and may not be considered for award.

A. EVALUATION FACTORS FOR AWARD: Two (2) separate evaluation factors will be used to evaluate proposals: Factor 1- Technical Capability and Factor 2 - Price.

FACTOR 1 - TECHNICAL CAPABILITY PROPOSAL:

As a result of the government‘s evaluation of the aforementioned technical sub-factors and all associated elements accordingly, a determination of acceptable or unacceptable will be assigned for this factor of Technical Acceptability using the following ratings and descriptions:

Technical Acceptable/Unacceptable Ratings

Rating

Description

Acceptable

Proposal clearly meets the minimum requirements of the solicitation as identified in subfactors: Licensure, Certifications, Education and Past Experience. All sub-factors have passed the evaluation.

Unacceptable

Proposal clearly does not meet the minimum requirements of the solicitation. Each sub-factor must pass the evaluation in order for the technical factor to pass. Failure to address any sub-factor will deem an offer technically unacceptable.

The government will evaluate technical proposals and the below listed sub-factors on a pass/fail-basis, assigning ratings of acceptable, or unacceptable. An unacceptable rating for any of the below sub-factors will result in an unacceptable rating for this Technical

Capability primary factor. Accordingly, under the LPTA source selection approach, offerors who receive an unacceptable rating for this factor, may not be considered for award. If any single area receives a rating of unacceptable, the entire plan will be rated as Unacceptable.

Technical Acceptability shall be evaluated against the following sub-factors:

SUBFACTOR 1- Licensure: This subfactor is met when an offeror thoroughly, completely, and accurately submits all of the following criteria listed in this subfactor.

Offeror will be evaluated on their ability to provide a vetted license to practice medicine

(with no stipulations or pending adverse actions) from a US State or territory Medical

Board. The 48 th

Medical Group will verify licensure for validity and currency by contacting the issuing institution.

SUBFACTOR 2 - Technical Certifications: This subfactor is met when an offeror thoroughly, completely, and accurately submits all of the following criteria listed in this subfactor.

1.Basic Life Support (BLS), 2.Advanced Cardiac Life Support (ACLS)

3.Pediatric Advanced Life Support (PALS)

The 48 th

Medical Group will ensure certifications match the name of the applicant and that the certification is current.

SUBFACTOR 3 – Education: This subfactor is met when an offeror thoroughly, completely, and accurately submits copy of provider‘s graduation from a school of medicine with a degree of doctor of medicine or doctor of osteopathy acceptable to the

US Air Force Surgeon General. Submits copy of certificate of completion from a residency or fellowship in emergency medicine acceptable to the US Air Force Surgeon

General. When the candidate graduates from a foreign medical school, they shall provide a copy of the certificate indicating they have passed the Foreign Medical Graduation exam. The 48 th

Medical Group will verify education for validity and currency by contacting the issuing institution(s).

SUBFACTOR 4 - Past Experience: This subfactor will be met when an offeror thoroughly, completely, and accurately submits documentation of at least two (2) continuous years of recent and relevant past experience within the last five (5) years.

Recent is defined as experience acquired in the last five (5) years from the closing date of this solicitation. Not Relevant experience is defined as past/present experience effort that did not involve any of the magnitude of effort and complexities this solicitation required.

Relevant is defined as past/present experience efforts involved much of the magnitude of effort and/or complexities this solicitation requires such as; contracts for ER Physician services as addressed in the PWS. Provide name and contact information of recent and relevant contracts or employment with government medical facilities and/or commercial medical facilities. The 48 th

Medical Group will contact submitted names to verify offeror‘s past experience.

FACTOR 2 - PRICE EVALUATION.

An offeror‘s proposed prices will be verified by multiplying the quantities identified for each item number in the price schedule by the proposed unit price to confirm the extended amount for each price schedule item. The extended price, to include option year, for each item will be added together to arrive at a total evaluated price. As this requirement is a

―commercial‖ service that will result in a ―firm-fixed-priced‖ contract, a comparison of offeror‘s proposed, competitive prices will satisfy the requirement for price analysis. The price evaluation will be accomplished by conducting price analysis to assess and compare proposed prices and reasonableness of the proposed total evaluated price as defined in FAR

15.404-1 and FAR 15.305.

Firm-fixed-price contract provides for a price that is not subject to any adjustment on the basis of the contractor‘s cost experience in performing the contract. (FAR 16.202-1)

B. AWARD DETERMINATION: As a result of the Government‘s aforementioned evaluation, only those offerors whose proposals are determined to be technically acceptable, and either initially or as a result of discussions, will be considered for award. No trade-offs will be permitted between price, and the non-price factor of technical capability. Upon completion of the Government‗s initial evaluation, Evaluation Notices (ENs) may be issued to offerors within the competitive range, if a competitive range has been established. Once discussions, if conducted, have been concluded, the contracting officer will request a Final Proposal Revision

(FPR). Of those offerors found technically acceptable, the award will be made to the lowest priced offeror whose price is determined to be reasonable, realistic, and affordable.

Additional Information for Offerors:

Offerors are cautioned to submit sufficient information and in the format specified in 52.212-1, Instructions to Offerors—Commercial Items. Offeror‘s may be asked to clarify certain aspects of their proposal (for example, the relevance of past experience information or to resolve minor clerical errors). These communications 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. However, the Government reserves the right to conduct discussions if deemed in its best interest.
