TERMS, CONDITIONS, PROVISIONS, & CLAUSES

EVALUATION CRITERIA

Issuance of award will be based on two evaluation factors:

1. The lowest Total Evaluated Price; and,

2. Offeror capability and experience [Pass/Fail].

TOTAL EVALUATED PRICE

1. The Total Evaluated Price – or TEP – is a price which will be used strictly for evaluation purposes. It is calculated based on the sum of the following items:

a. Addition of all PM Line Items – Base and all Option Years

b. Addition of all quoted RM Line Items, which is your Burdened Labor Rate multiplied by the estimated Annual Hours of Labor for that year.

c. A six-month Extension of Services IAW FAR Clause 52.217-8, Option To Extend Services, the pricing of which will be calculated by the Government using the final month price of Option Year 4 and multiplied by six (to represent a six-month extension). This extension is not priced by the Offeror but is calculated by the Government.

2. The TEP will differ from the actual award amount for two reasons:

a. All of the Remedial Maintenance (RM) line items will be awarded with additional money on them which covers labor, materials, and misc. costs (travel, etc). The additional amount will be based on past usage history of these line item types for this type of service.

b. The TEP’s six-month service extension amount is not included on the award; it is an option which is exercised unilaterally at the Government’s discretion.

NOTE: your TEP will be LOWER than the final contract price awarded, but the offeror with the lowest TEP will be selected to receive the award. Actual contract price will be higher than anyone’s TEP due to the inclusion of money for item listed in 2a (above).

All quotations must conform to the solicitation requirements, to include all stated terms, conditions, representations, and certifications.

NOTICE TO OFFERORS – EXTENSION OF SERVICES

The Government will include a six-month extension of services option IAW FAR Clause 52.217-8, Option to Extend Services, in the contract which will be exercised only if needed: it will not be included in the contract as a period of period of performance.

Offerors do not need to provide a price for this extension; it will be calculated by the Government using the final month price of Option Year 4 and multiplied by six (to represent a six-month extension). The Government will add this six-month extension to each Offeror’s quote to come up with each Offeror’s TEP.

[End of Provision Addendum]

52.212-2 -- Evaluation – Commercial Items

As prescribed in FAR 12.301(c), the following addendum is provided for this solicitation and hereby amends all language therein:

(a) The Government will award a contract resulting from this solicitation to the responsible offeror whose offer conforms to the solicitation. The following two factors shall be used to evaluate offers:

Technical Capability – the Government will evaluate the Contractor’s response to the following--

ITEM SPECIFIC REQUIREMENT

A Contractor must provide proof of five years or more experience in the operation and repair of De-Ionized Water Systems or equivalent.

B Contractor must provide proof of five years or more experience in the servicing of the equipment listed in the PWS or equivalent.

Your response to this portion shall be no longer than 10 pages. This is a pass-or-fail factor.

Price – the Government will award this requirement to a technically-capable offeror based on the lowest TEP of all CLINs (Basic and all four Option years; to include the 6-month option IAW FAR Clause 52.217-8)

Each Offeror shall provide a firm fixed price for the Lease and Maintenance of De-Ionized Water Systems CLINs. The Lease and Maintenance of De-Ionized Water Systems CLINs are as follows --

Basic Year 0001 (CMXG), 0002 (PMXG) Option Year I 1001 (CMXG), 1002 (PMXG) Option Year II 2001 (CMXG), 2002 (PMXG) Option Year III 3001 (CMXG), 3002 (PMXG) Option Year IV 4001 (CMXG), 4002 (PMXG)

The De-Ionized Water Systems Lease and Maintenance CLIN prices will include the Basic Year and all Options to determine the offeror’s TEP.

(b) 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).

(c) Evaluation Methodology. The Government will evaluate the three lowest-priced offers for technical capability. Then, price will be evaluated for the technically-capable offers and they will be listed from lowest to highest price based on the

TEP.

Contracting will review all quotations to ensure they conform to the solicitation requirements, to include all stated terms, conditions, representations, and certifications. The Government reserves the right to reject any or all quotes which do not conform to all of the solicitations stated terms, conditions, representations, and certifications.

IAW FAR 9.104-6(a), Contracting will review Contractor registration, performance, and integrity information the System for Award Management (SAM) and Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS)/the Federal Awardee Performance and Integrity Information System (FAPIIS) to ensure the Offeror is registered to do business with the Government, is a responsible source, and can be counted on to perform the contract IAW the Government’s requirements. Award will not be made to a contractor with enough negative performance indicators – marginal, unsatisfactory, unacceptable, non-compliant, fail, etc. – to give the Government any doubt about the contractor’s ability to satisfy this requirement. A lack of past performance information in the aforementioned systems does not constitute negative performance.

The Government reserves the right to request more information from any Offeror about their quote or to conduct interchanges at any time during the evaluation process with one, some, or all Offerors if later determined by the Contracting Officer to be necessary. The Government may waive informalities and minor irregularities in quotations received; therefore, the Offeror’s initial quotation should be complete and contain the Offeror’s best terms from a price and technical standpoint. The Government reserves the right to consider or reject late quotes.

If none of the three lowest quotes selected for review are acceptable IAW the criteria above, the next three lowest quotes will be selected for review.

Award will be made to the offer with the lowest TEP that met the acceptability standards for technical capability.

REMINDER – TEP

The offeror with the lowest total evaluated price (TEP) will be selected to receive the award. Your quote’s TEP will be LOWER than the final contract price awarded whether it’s awarded to you or to another offeror, but actual awarded contract price will be higher than everyone’s TEP due to the inclusion of additional funds for labor, materials, and misc. costs (travel, etc).

(d) Award Notification. Contracting will notify the successful Offeror that they will receive the award via email or phone call.

Unsuccessful Offerors will not be notified personally, but can find the award information online (SAM.gov) within two business days of award. The information posted will be as follows:

a. Offeror/Business Name

b. City and State

c. Contract #

d. Offeror’s Technical Capability [Pass/Fail]

e. TEP and the Total (Actual) Award Amount

If 52.212-3 is not returned the Offeror is affirming that the current SAM registration is current, accurate, and complete).

52.217-5 Evaluation Of Options

Except when it is determined in accordance with FAR 17.206(b) not to be in the Government's best interests, the Government will evaluate offers for award purposes by adding the total price for all options to the total price for the basic requirement. Evaluation of options will not obligate the Government to exercise the option(s).

52.217-8 -- Option to Extend Services

The Government may require continued performance of any services within the limits and at the rates specified in the contract.

These rates may be adjusted only as a result of revisions to prevailing labor rates provided by the Secretary of Labor. The option provision may be exercised more than once, but the total extension of performance hereunder shall not exceed 6 months. The Contracting Officer may exercise the option by written notice to the Contractor within 7 days of the end of the current period of performance.

52.217-9 -- Option To Extend The Term Of The Contract

(a) The Government may extend the term of this contract by written notice to the Contractor within 10 days of the expiration of the current contract period; provided that the Government gives the Contractor a preliminary written notice of its intent to extend at least 20 days before the contract expires. The preliminary notice does not commit the Government to an extension.

(b) If the Government exercises this option, the extended contract shall be considered to include this option clause.

(c) The total duration of this contract, including the exercise of any options under this clause, shall not exceed 60 months.

52.222-42 -- Statement of Equivalent Rates for Federal Hires
