52.212-2 -- Evaluation -- Commercial Items (Oct 2014)

1. EVALUATION PROCEDURES:

1.1. BASIS FOR CONTRACT AWARD: This competitive best value source selection will be conducted using the Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) with Acceptable Past

Performance as the source selection process in accordance with (IAW) Federal Acquisition

Regulation (FAR) Part 15, Contracting by Negotiation, Department of Defense (DoD)

Source Selection Procedures effective 13 Jan 2017 and Air Force Federal Acquisition

Regulation Supplement (AFFARS) Mandatory Procedures (MP) 5315.3 for Source Selection as revised 25 May 2018. Award will be made to the offeror who is deemed responsible in accordance with Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Part 9, has the lowest price, is deemed technically acceptable, has an acceptable past performance record, and conforms to all the solicitation requirements.

1.2. The solicitation requirements include all stated terms, conditions, representations, certifications, and other information required by FAR 52.212-1 Instructions to Offerors –

Commercial Items, and the addendum to this clause provided in the solicitation. The

Government reserves the right to award without discussions. Therefore, each 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 determined necessary by the

Contracting Officer, and is in the best interest of the Government.

2. NUMBER OF CONTRACT AWARDS:

2.1. The Government reserves the right to award no contract at all, depending on the quality of the proposals, prices submitted, and availability of funds.

2.2. The Government intends to make one (1) award as a result of this solicitation. The award will be made to the offeror whose proposal conforms to the solicitation requirements, was found to have the lowest evaluated price, was determined technically acceptable, had acceptable Past Performance, and that is deemed responsible in accordance with FAR Part 9.

3. EVALUATION METHODOLOGY:

3.1. The Government will evaluate a minimum of three (3) proposals. Offers will be ranked according to total price over the five (5) year period. If any one of the three lowest priced proposals is deemed technically unacceptable, or receives an unacceptable rating for past performance, it will be replaced by the next lowest priced proposal. This process will continue until there are three proposals deemed technically acceptable with an acceptable past performance or until all proposals have been evaluated. Award shall be made to the responsible offeror whose proposal conforms to the solicitation requirements and is the lowest priced technically acceptable with an acceptable past performance.

3.2. If at any time during the evaluation process the contracting officer deems discussions to be in the best interest of the Government, a competitive range will be established IAW FAR

15.306. It is possible that the contracting officer may determine that the number of proposals that might otherwise be included in the competitive range exceeds the number at which an efficient competition can be conducted. In such a case, the contracting officer may decide to limit the number of proposals in the competitive range to the greatest number that will permit an efficient competition among the most highly rated proposals. If this occurs, discussions will be held only with those offerors within the competitive range. Those outside of the range will be eliminated from consideration for award.

3.3. Offerors shall submit a Firm Fixed Price for each individual vehicle type over the five

(5), one (1) year ordering periods. The prices given for each vehicle must be entirely inclusive of all costs for leasing that type of vehicle in one-month increments, to include the associated maintenance costs. The offeror shall utilize the Excel spreadsheet entitled

“Vehicle Price Schedule”, included as Attachment 3 to the solicitation, when proposing the price for each individual vehicle type. When issuing Task Orders, which will utilize the individual vehicle prices, the Government has the right to dictate the number of vehicles required.

4. AWARD DECISION - This competitive best value source selection will be conducted in accordance with FAR Part 15, Contracting by Negotiation, DoD Source Selection Procedures effective 13 Jan 2017 and Air Force Federal Acquisition Regulation (AFFARS) Mandatory

Procedures (MP) 5315.3 for Source Selection as revised 25 May 2018 using the Lowest Price

Technically Acceptable (LPTA) source selection process. The award decision will be made as follows:

4.1. Price. The offeror’s total Firm-Fixed Price resulting from the total price for each vehicle type for the five (5), one (1) year ordering periods, based on the estimated quantities specified in Attachment 3, Vehicle Price Schedule.

The offeror’s proposed price, based on the quantity of vehicles specified in Section 5 of the PWS, must include the total price of each individual year, as well as the total price for the entire five (5) year period. The price must be entirely inclusive of all costs for leasing, to include the associated maintenance costs. The offeror with the lowest, fair and reasonable, and balanced price for all five (5) years combined, which is determined to be technically and past performance acceptable, will receive the award. Any prices the offeror provides for the Admin Charges CLIN are for informational purposes and will not be evaluated nor will be a factor in determining the lowest price technically acceptable proposal.

Capability factor will receive a rating of Acceptable or Unacceptable. If any subfactor is rated “Unacceptable,” the entire proposal will be rendered technically unacceptable. The evaluation for that proposal will stop at the point when it has been deemed as

Unacceptable. Only proposals deemed technically acceptable (either initially or as the result of discussions) will be considered for the award. The ratings are defined in the following paragraphs.

4.2.1. Acceptable: Proposal meets the minimum requirements of the solicitation.

Recent performance includes contract performance within three (3) years from the issuance of this solicitation. Relevant performance includes performance of efforts involving leased vehicle fleet support and management services as described in the PWS of the same or similar type that individually total at least 1,512,500 KWD. The evaluation of past performance will result in an overall assessment of acceptable or unacceptable.

4.3.1. 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.

4.3.2. Unacceptable: Based on the offeror’s performance record, the Government does not have a reasonable expectation that the offeror will be able to successfully perform the required effort.

4.4. Award Decision. An award will be made to the lowest priced, technically acceptable offeror with acceptable past performance, subject to a positive responsibility determination in accordance with FAR Part 9 and conformance of the offerors’ proposal to the terms and conditions of the solicitation.

6.2.6. An offeror will be assigned an overall technical capability rating of Acceptable or Unacceptable based upon the offeror’s ability to clearly demonstrate its technical capability to meet each subfactor. An offeror will receive an overall technical acceptability rating of Acceptable only if it receives an Acceptable rating for each of the five subfactors: Maintenance and Recovery Response

6.3.3. The evaluation of past performance information

will result in an overall assessment of Acceptable or

Unacceptable as follows:

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 requirement, or the offeror’s performance record is unknown. (See note below.)

Unacceptable

Based on the offeror’s performance record, the

Government does not have a 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.”
