ADDENDUM TO FAR 52.212-2, Evaluation -- Commercial Items
Basis for Contract Award
1. This acquisition is conducted in accordance with Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 12, Acquisition of Commercial Items and FAR 13, Simplified Acquisition Procedures. The Government intends to award a firm fixed-price contract to the Offeror who is deemed responsible in accordance with the FAR Part 9.1, as supplemented, whose proposal conforms to the solicitation's requirements and is judged to represent the lowest priced technically acceptable (LPTA) proposal.
2. The Government intends to make one contract award without discussions. Proposals should be submitted initially on the most accurate and favorable 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. Offerors should not assume they will be contacted or afforded an opportunity to clarify, discuss and/or revise their proposals. The Government reserves the right to reject any or all offers if such action is in the Government's best interests.
3. If, during the evaluation process, it is determined to be in the best interest of the Government to hold discussions, Offeror responses and/or any revision(s) to an Offeror’s proposal will be considered in making the award decision. If the Offeror's proposal was evaluated as acceptable at the time discussions are closed, any changes or exceptions in the revised proposal are subject to evaluation and may introduce risk that the Offeror's proposal be determined unacceptable and ineligible for award.
4. Offerors are required to meet all solicitation requirements, such as terms and conditions, representations and certifications, and technical requirements, in addition to those identified as factors or subfactors. Failure to comply with the terms and conditions of the solicitation may result in the Offeror being ineligible for award. Offerors must clearly identify any exception to the solicitation terms and conditions and must provide complete supporting rationale. The
Government reserves the right to determine any such exceptions unacceptable and the proposal therefore, ineligible for award.
EVALUATION PROCESS.
The Government will use the following procedures to evaluate offers:
Synopsis of Evaluation
1. Each responsive offer received will be ranked by price from lowest to highest.
2. The two (2) lowest priced offers will be evaluated for technical acceptability in accordance with Table 1 below. Should one (1) of the two (2) lowest priced offers be rated unacceptable, the Government will evaluate the next lowest priced offer for technical acceptability. Once the Government determines two (2) lowest priced offerors are acceptable, the Government will end its evaluation process with no other offers being evaluated.
3. Award will be made to the LPTA responsible Offeror.
Evaluation Factors and Subfactors
The following evaluation factor and subfactors will be used to evaluate each proposal. Any factor or subfactor determined to be unacceptable will render the entire proposal ineligible for award.
Factor 1: Technical
Subfactor 1: Management Plan Subfactor 2: Technical Approach Subfactor 3: Facilities, Equipment, Standards
Factor 2: Price
Factor 3: Past Performance
The Government’s technical evaluation team shall evaluate the technical factor/subfactors on an acceptable or unacceptable basis, assigning one of the ratings described below. A technical factor/subfactor evaluated as “Unacceptable” will render the entire proposal unacceptable and, therefore, unawardable. Only those proposals determined to be technically acceptable, either initially or as a result of discussions, will be considered for award. However, the Offeror is reminded that the Government reserves the right to award this effort based on the initial proposal, as received, without discussion.
TABLE 1 – TECHNICAL RATINGS
Rating Description
Acceptable Quote meets the requirements of the solicitation
Unacceptable Quote does not meet the requirements of the solicitation
Subfactor 1 – Management Plan: The Offeror shall provide a clearly written narrative that demonstrates a sound and through plan that clearly outlines their Management Plan. This plan shall include staffing, recruitment, product data sheets of equipment, quality processes with maintaining the cleanliness of the facility and separation of laundry and dry-cleaning amongst the customers, and a description of any subcontractor teaming arrangements.
Subfactor 2 – Technical Approach: The Offeror shall provide a clearly detailed technical approach to provide laundry and dry-cleaning services in accordance with the PWS (Attachment 1). Offeror shall identify their processes to ensure laundry and dry cleaning is free of all: 1) visible dirt 2) debris 3) dampness, and 4) offensive odor. This approach shall also include timely pick-up and delivery of all laundry/dry-cleaning in the correct quantities that meets or exceeds all requirements of the Performance Work Statement. (Attachment 1).
Subfactor 3 – Facility: The Offeror provided data that clearly ensures the facility, equipment and processes meet industry accepted federal, state, and local guidelines to include the facility is not a coin operated facility. The Government reserves the right to perform a site visit of the offeror’s facility should the data presented is insufficient to determine the facility, equipment and processes meet industry accepted federal, state and local guidelines to include the facility is not a coin operating facility.
Factor 2 - Price
1. The Offeror’s Price proposal will be evaluated for award purposes, based upon the total evaluated price proposed. The Total Evaluated Price (TEP) shall be calculated by multiplying the unit price by the quantity to calculate the extended prices for all of the firm fixed priced CLINs, including Option CLINs, then totaling those amounts. Evaluation of options will not obligate the Government to exercise the option(s).
2. The Offeror's price will be evaluated for completeness and reasonableness. An Offeror whose price is determined to be unfair or unreasonable may not be considered for award.
FAIR AND REASONABLE: The existence of adequate price competition is expected to support a determination of fair and reasonable pricing. If adequate price competition is not obtained or if price reasonableness cannot be determined using price analysis of Government obtained information, additional information may be required to support the proposed price.
BALANCE: Unbalanced pricing exists when, despite an acceptable total evaluated price, the price of one or more contract line-item numbers (CLINs) is significantly overstated or understated as indicated by the application of proposal analysis techniques. The Government shall analyze offers to determine whether there are unbalanced separately priced CLINs. Prices submitted will be compared and evaluated to assure that a logical progression exists as related to price and quantity changes within each Offeror's response to the pricing structure in the Price Schedule.
3. Offerors must use the Price Schedule (Attachment 2) to submit pricing for their firm fixed-price proposal.
Factor 3 – Past Performance
The Government will evaluate the completion of the offeror’s past performance by reviewing the Past Performance Evaluation Survey, Contractor Performance Acquisition Retrieval System (CPARS) Federal Awardee Performance and Integrity Information System (FAPIIS), Electronic Document Access (EDA) or any other databases. If the Offeror has one (1) or more active FAPIIS exclusions, the overall rating is unacceptable, and the quote will not be evaluated further.
Past Performance Acceptable/Unacceptable 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. (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 (or “neutral”) past performance. In the context of acceptability/unacceptability, a neutral rating shall be considered acceptable.
