mailto:mark.jenkins.1@us.af.mil mailto:markus.wendel.de@us.af.mil mailto:mark.jenkins.1@us.af.mil mailto:markus.wendel.1.de@us.af.mil

The Government will send the received PPQs to the references for completion. Past performance references of a joint venture partner or key subcontractor being intended to perform the solicited service, or instances where the offeror performed as a key personnel or a key subcontractor will be accepted. If a joint venture partner or subcontractor is used the offeror shall identify the percentage of work to be accomplished by the joint venture partner or subcontractor.

In the evaluation of Present and Past Performance, the Government will consider the information received through the questionnaires, as well as information obtained from other sources. Offerors will have the opportunity to address any negative performance information received that the offeror has not already had the opportunity to address. The

Government may also seek past performance information from other sources, such as but not limited to, the Past

Performance Information Retrieval System (PPIRS).

(b)(12) Required Submittals: The offeror shall provide the following documents and certifications as submittals to be eligible for award:

i. Proof of Membership in either the Chamber of Commerce (Industrie und Handelskammer) or Chamber of Trade (Handwerkskammer) as a qualified contractor in accordance with (IAW) paragraph

NOTE: It is the Government’s intent to conduct no more than one single site visit.

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 is determined to be the lowest priced proposal with acceptable past performance. No tradeoffs will be accomplished between price and past performance. The Government may award without discussions, reserving the right to hold discussions if deemed necessary by the CO. The following factors shall be used to evaluate offers:

The Evaluation Factors are:

(1) FACTOR 1 – Price

(2) FACTOR 2 – Past Performance.

(1) FACTOR 1 – Price. Offerors will be evaluated on the total price resulting from the estimated total amounts of all CLINs 0001 to 4008, for the base period and all option periods. Only EURO currency offers will be accepted.

Unbalanced prices may serve as a basis for rejection of the proposal. The price evaluation will document the reasonableness and completeness of the total evaluated price. Prices will be evaluated for fair and reasonableness

IAW FAR 13.106-3.

(i) Arithmetic Discrepancies. For the purpose of initial evaluation of offers, the following will be utilized in resolving arithmetic discrepancies found on the face of the bidding schedule as submitted by the offeror.

(A) Obviously misplaced decimal points will be corrected;

(B) Discrepancy between unit price and extended price, the unit price will govern;

(C) Apparent errors in extension of unit prices will be corrected;

(D) Apparent errors in extended prices per CLIN will be corrected.

(2) FACTOR 2 – Past Performance. Past Performance will be evaluated based on subjective assessment of how well the offeror performed on recent and relevant work, as outlined in Addendum to FAR Provision

52.212-1, paragraph (b)(10). Past performance references of a joint venture partner, key subcontractor, or instances where the offeror performed as a key personnel or a key subcontractor will be accepted. For the purpose of assessing acceptable performance, ratings S (Satisfactory), G (Good) and E (Exceptional) assigned on the PPQs will be considered “Acceptable”. M (Marginal) and U (Unsatisfactory) will be considered “Unacceptable”. The rating is based upon offeror-provided references, received PPQs, or information obtained by the Government from any other sources of past performance information. Offeror must receive “Acceptable” rating to receive an award, as follows:

PAST PERFORMANCE

RATING DEFINITION

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 (see note below).

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 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 (see FAR 15.305 (a) (2) (iv)). Therefore, the offeror shall be determined to have unknown past performance. In the context of acceptability/unacceptability, “Unknown” shall be considered “Acceptable.”

Submittals: All submittals must be received in order for an offeror to be eligible for award.

(b) Award Process: The Government intends to award to the lowest priced offeror with an acceptable past performance rating. The Government reserves the right to hold discussions at any point during the evaluation. The evaluation process is as follows:

(1) Price: The Government will first evaluate all proposals for price, ranking the offerors from lowest to highest total evaluated price. Price must be fair and reasonable.

(2) Past Performance: The lowest priced offeror’s past performance will be evaluated. The Government reserves the right:

a. that, if the lowest priced offeror’s past performance is determined to be “Acceptable”, the evaluation process will stop and the award will be made to that offeror.

b. that, if the lowest priced offeror’s past performance is determined to be “Unacceptable”, the

Government will evaluate the past performance of the next lowest priced offeror. This process will continue, as needed, until an offeror is rated ”Acceptable” for past performance.

(c) 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).

(d) 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.
