PROPOSAL FORMAT AND CRITERIA

This acquisition will be evaluated by utilizing the Lowest Price, Technically Acceptable (LPTA) process. Accordingly, an award will be made to the Offerors that submit the lowest total evaluated price proposal that is fair and reasonable and that meets or exceeds the technical acceptability standards for non- price factors that are listed below. No tradeoffs are permitted. An evaluation for acceptability will be performed. To be considered technically acceptable, no evaluation factor in the proposal may be determined to be unacceptable. The failure of a proposal to meet all of the requirements under any factor will result in an unacceptable rating and preclude award.

Table : Ratings

Description

Price: The price proposal shall be submitted in a file separate from the technical proposal information in the Microsoft Excel (.xls) file format provided. Offerors shall use the attached “Offeror Pricing Spreadsheet” (attachment 1). All items on the price list shall be priced in order to be determined acceptable. Although it is not mandatory, it is requested that offerors use rounding to the nearest whole dollar in their price proposal. The proposed price will be evaluated for reasonableness.

Factor – Past Performance Information: There is one non-price evaluation factor which is Past Performance. The Offeror shall submit three (3) past performance questionaires (Attachment #2) with their proposal. The Government’s evaluation of proposals for the non-price factor will be based on a acceptable or unacceptable rating. The Government will used the Past Performance Questionnaire’s to contact the Customer’s Point of Contact to ensure positive performance. In addition, The Government reserves the right to review the Past Performance Information Retrieval System (PPIRS) for any negative past performance. If the Government should obtain any negative past performance ratings, the offeror shall be determined unacceptable.

BASIS FOR AWARD

The Government will make a single award to the Lowest Priced Technically Acceptable offer.

The agency will first rank proposals based on price and evaluate for price reasonableness, and then evaluate the lowest-priced proposal for acceptability. If the lowest-priced proposal is determined to be acceptable, the Government will make an award and no further evaluations will take place. If the lowest-priced proprosal is determined NOT to be acceptable, then the next lowest-priced proposal will be evaluated. This will continue until an award can be made.

The Government reserves the right to make a selection based upon initial proposals; therefore Offerors should submit their best terms in their initial proposal. The Government also reserves the right to hold clarifications with Offerors to clear up proposal details if necessary in the Government’s discretion, and may also determine to make no award.
