EVALUATION UTILIZING SIMPLIFIED ACQUISITION PROCEDURES

The Government will issue a purchase order resulting from this Request for Quotation (RFQ) to the responsive responsible offeror whose quotation results in the best value to the Government, considering both price and non-price factors. Evaluation and Award will be made on the basis of the lowest evaluated price of quotes meeting or exceeding the acceptability standards for non-cost factors.

The following factors will be used to evaluate quotations:

1. TECHNICAL APPROACH AND CAPABILITY

The offeror's approach to performing contract requirements and its capability to successfully perform the contract will be evaluated. The contractor shall provide the following:

a) The capability to provide annual onsite visits by a Site Manager of the prime contractor who has the authority to address contractual and performance issues. The name, title, telephone number, and e-mail of this individual shall be provided with the quote.

b) The capability, communication plan, and staffing plan to ensure service shall be performed in accordance with the Performance Work Statement without interruption if the regularly scheduled employee fails to show due illness, injury, vacation, no show, etc.

c) Contractors shall provide a statement that they acknowledge clause 1330- 52.222-70, NOAA Sexual Assault and Sexual Harassment Prevention and Response Policy and agree to provide documentation of training (http://www.ago.noaa.gov/quicklinks/ harassment_training.html) completion for all on-site employees to the Contracting Officer within ten (10) business days of the start date. Verification that the vendor understands that reading of the policy is required yearly at the onset of each option year.

2. PAST PERFORMANCE

The offeror's past performance on related contracts will be evaluated to determine, as appropriate, successful performance of contract requirements, quality and timeliness of delivery of goods and services, cost management, communications between contracting parties, proactive management and customer satisfaction.

The contractor shall provide a list of at least two but no more than three contacts, including phone numbers, of past performance references that you have successfully supplied services similar in size to those listed in the statement of work.

3. PRICE

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).

The Government reserves the right not to award a contract.

All offers received will be evaluated in accordance with the evaluation criteria. The government reserves the right to make an award without discussions based solely on initial quotes. Therefore, PAGE 9 OF 58 1305M221QNWWR0014 offerors should ensure that their initial quote constitutes their best offer in terms of both price and technical approach being proposed.
