or

(2) An identifier assigned by a member of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) or by the NATO Support and Procurement Agency (NSPA) to entities located outside the United States and its outlying areas that the DLA Commercial and Government Entity (CAGE) Branch records and maintains in the CAGE master file.

If the Offeror has more than one immediate owner (such as a joint venture), then the Offeror shall respond to paragraph (c) and if applicable, paragraph (d) of this provision for each participant in the joint venture.

52.204-20 Predecessor of Offeror (JUL 2016)

(a) Definitions. As used in this provision--

Commercial and Government Entity (CAGE) code means--

(1) An identifier assigned to entities located in the United States or its outlying areas by the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Commercial and Government Entity (CAGE) Branch to identify a commercial or government entity;

or

(2) An identifier assigned by a member of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) or by the NATO Support and Procurement Agency (NSPA) to entities located outside the United States and its outlying areas that the DLA Commercial and Government Entity (CAGE) Branch records and maintains in the CAGE master file. This type of code is known as a NATO CAGE (NCAGE) code.

Predecessor means an entity that is replaced by a successor and includes any predecessors of the predecessor.

Successor means an entity that has replaced a predecessor by acquiring the assets and carrying out the affairs of the predecessor under a new name (often through acquisition or merger). The term “successor” does not include new offices/divisions of the same company or a company that only changes its name. The extent of the responsibility of the successor for the liabilities of the predecessor may vary, depending on State law and specific circumstances.

(b) The Offeror represents that it [____] is or [____] is not a successor to a predecessor that held a Federal contract or grant within the last three years.

(a) Definition: "Qualification requirement," as used in this clause, means a Government requirement for testing or other quality assurance demonstration that must be completed before award.

(b) One or more qualification requirements apply to the supplies or services covered by this contract. For those supplies or services requiring qualification, whether the covered product or service is an end item under this contract or simply a component of an end item, the product, manufacturer, or source must have demonstrated that it meets the standards prescribed for qualification before award of this contract. The product, manufacturer, or source must be qualified at the time of award whether or not the name of the product, manufacturer, or source is actually included on a qualified products list, qualified manufacturers list, or qualified bidders list. Offerors should contact the agency activity designated below to obtain all requirements that they or their products or services, or their subcontractors or their products or services, must satisfy to become qualified and to arrange for an opportunity to demonstrate their abilities to meet the standards specified for qualification.

(Name)

(Address)

(c) If an offeror, manufacturer, source, product or service covered by a qualification requirement has already met the standards specified, the relevant information noted below should be provided.

Offeror's Name Manufacturer's Name Source's Name Item Name Service Identification Test Number (to the extent known)

(d) Even though a product or service subject to a qualification requirement is not in itself an end item under this contract, the product, manufacturer, or source must nevertheless be qualified at the time of award of this contract.

This is necessary whether the Contractor or a subcontractor will ultimately provide the product or service in question. If, after award, the Contracting Officer discovers that an applicable qualification requirement was not in fact met at the time of award, the Contracting Officer may either terminate the contract for default or allow performance to continue if adequate consideration is offered and the action is determined to be otherwise in the Government's best interests.

(e) If an offeror, manufacturer, source, product, or service has met the qualification requirement but is not yet on a qualified products list, qualified manufacturers list, or qualified bidders list, the offeror must submit evidence of qualification prior to award of this contract. Unless determined to be in the Government's interests, award of this contract shall not be delayed to permit an offeror to submit evidence of qualification.

(f) Any change in location or ownership of the plant where a previously qualified product or service was manufactured or performed requires reevaluation of the qualification. Similarly, any change in location or ownership of a previously qualified manufacturer or source requires reevaluation of the qualification. The reevaluation must be accomplished before the date of award.

(End of clause)

(b) Government agencies are not permitted to use appropriated (or otherwise made available) funds for contracts with either an inverted domestic corporation, or a subsidiary of an inverted domestic corporation, unless the exception at 9.108-2(b) applies or the requirement is waived in accordance with the procedures at 9.108-4.

(1) Has any unpaid Federal tax liability that has been assessed, for which all judicial and administrative remedies have been exhausted or have lapsed, and that is not being paid in a timely manner pursuant to an agreement with the authority responsible for collecting the tax liability, where the awarding agency is aware of the unpaid tax liability, unless an agency has considered suspension or debarment of the corporation and made a determination that suspension or debarment is not necessary to protect the interests of the Government; or

(2) Was convicted of a felony criminal violation under any Federal law within the preceding 24 months, where the awarding agency is aware of the conviction, unless an agency has considered suspension or debarment of the corporation and made a determination that this action is not necessary to protect the interests of the Government.

52.212-1 INSTRUCTIONS TO OFFERORS--COMMERCIAL ITEMS (OCT 2018)

(a) North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code and small business size standard. The NAICS code and small business size standard for this acquisition appear in Block 10 of the solicitation cover sheet (SF 1449). However, the small business size standard for a concern which submits an offer in its own name, but which proposes to furnish an item which it did not itself manufacture, is 500 employees.

(b) Submission of offers. Submit signed and dated offers to the office specified in this solicitation at or before the exact time specified in this solicitation. Offers may be submitted on this document, letterhead stationery, or as otherwise specified in the solicitation. As a minimum, offers must show--

(1) The solicitation number;

(2) The time specified in the solicitation for receipt of offers;

(3) The name, address, and telephone number of the offeror;

(4) A technical description of the items being offered in sufficient detail to evaluate compliance with the requirements in the solicitation. This may include product literature, or other documents, if necessary;

(5) Terms of any express warranty;

(6) Price and any discount terms;

(7) "Remit to" address, if different than mailing address;

(8) A completed copy of the representations and certifications at FAR 52.212-3 (see FAR 52.212-3(b) for those representations and certifications that the offeror shall complete electronically);

(9) Acknowledgment of Solicitation Amendments;

(10) Past performance information, when included as an evaluation factor, to include recent and relevant contracts for the same or similar items and other references (including contract numbers, points of contact with telephone numbers and other relevant information); and

(11) If the offer is not submitted on the SF 1449, include a statement specifying the extent of agreement with all terms, conditions, and provisions included in the solicitation. Offers that fail to furnish required representations or information, or reject the terms and conditions of the solicitation may be excluded from consideration.

(c) Period for acceptance of offers. The offeror agrees to hold the prices in its offer firm for 60 calendar days from the date specified for receipt of offers, unless another time period is specified in an addendum to the solicitation.

(d) Multiple offers. Offerors are encouraged to submit multiple offers presenting alternative terms and conditions, including alternative line items (provided that the alternative line items are consistent with subpart 4.10 of the Federal Acquisition Regulation), or alternative commercial items for satisfying the requirements of this solicitation.

Each offer submitted will be evaluated separately.

(e) Late submissions, modifications, revisions, and withdrawals of offers:

(1) Offerors are responsible for submitting offers, and any modifications, revisions, or withdrawals, so as to reach the Government office designated in the solicitation by the time specified in the solicitation. If no time is specified in the solicitation, the time for receipt is 4:30 p.m., local time, for the designated Government office on the date that offers or revisions are due.

(2)(i) Any offer, modification, revision, or withdrawal of an offer received at the Government office designated in the solicitation after the exact time specified for receipt of offers is “late” and will not be considered unless it is received before award is made, the Contracting Officer determines that accepting the late offer would not unduly delay the acquisition; and--

(A) If it was transmitted through an electronic commerce method authorized by the solicitation, it was received at the initial point of entry to the Government infrastructure not later than 5:00 p.m. one working day prior to the date specified for receipt of offers; or

(B) There is acceptable evidence to establish that it was received at the Government installation designated for receipt of offers and was under the Government's control prior to the time set for receipt of offers; or

(C) If this solicitation is a request for proposals, it was the only proposal received.

(ii) However, a late modification of an otherwise successful offer, that makes its terms more favorable to the Government, will be considered at any time it is received and may be accepted.

(3) Acceptable evidence to establish the time of receipt at the Government installation includes the time/date stamp of that installation on the offer wrapper, other documentary evidence of receipt maintained by the installation, or oral testimony or statements of Government personnel.

(4) If an emergency or unanticipated event interrupts normal Government processes so that offers cannot be received at the Government office designated for receipt of offers by the exact time specified in the solicitation, and urgent Government requirements preclude amendment of the solicitation or other notice of an extension of the closing date, the time specified for receipt of offers will be deemed to be extended to the same time of day specified in the solicitation on the first work day on which normal Government processes resume.

(5) Offers may be withdrawn by written notice received at any time before the exact time set for receipt of offers.

Oral offers in response to oral solicitations may be withdrawn orally. If the solicitation authorizes facsimile offers, offers may be withdrawn via facsimile received at any time before the exact time set for receipt of offers, subject to the conditions specified in the solicitation concerning facsimile offers. An offer may be withdrawn in person by an offeror or its authorized representative if, before the exact time set for receipt of offers, the identity of the person requesting withdrawal is established and the person signs a receipt for the offer.

(g) Contract award (not applicable to Invitation for Bids). The Government intends to evaluate offers and award a contract without discussions with offerors. Therefore, the offeror's 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 later determined by the Contracting Officer to be necessary. The Government may reject any or all offers if such action is in the public interest; accept other than the lowest offer; and waive informalities and minor irregularities in offers received.

(h) Multiple awards. The Government may accept any item or group of items of an offer, unless the offeror qualifies the offer by specific limitations. Unless otherwise provided in the Schedule, offers may not be submitted for quantities less than those specified.

A technically acceptable quote is one that receives an “Acceptable” rating for the Technical Factor and “Satisfactory” for the Past Performance Factor. Price will not be rated but instead evaluated for fair and reasonable pricing. The following factors shall be used to evaluate offers:

(i). Technical Approach: This factor evaluates the offeror’s ability to accomplish the technical requirements outlined in the PWS as they relate to the below criteria. The Technical Approach shall provide sufficient information in order for the Government to assess the Offeror’s capability to successfully perform the requirement. A rating of “Unacceptable” for any task or qualification will result in the quote being deemed technically “Unacceptable” and not being considered for contract award. To receive an “Acceptable” rating the offeror shall address, as a minimum the following tasks/qualification in detail and clearly demonstrate a thorough understanding of the efforts necessary to accomplish the requirements:

(Task 1) DoDEA shall evaluate how BCBAs will provide technical assistance to teachers, related service providers, and educational aides. The BCBA will provide 40 hours of services per week for each location.

o DoDEA shall evaluate at least one-year experience working with school age children in an educational setting. (PWS 3.7 b.)

Technical Evaluation Process:

Technical approach will be rated in accordance with the following rating method:

Technical Approach

Rating Description

Acceptable Quote meets requirements of the Solicitation.

Unacceptable Quote does not meet the requirements of the solicitation.

(ii). Past Performance: This factor assesses the offeror’s probability of meeting the solicitation requirements by considering each offeror’s demonstrated recent and relevant record of performance in supplying this service.

The Offeror is to provide not less than three (3) recent and relevant contractual references. Recency is defined as within the past five years. References provided by the offeror will be contacted and interviewed IAW Attachment 1, Present and Past Performance Questionnaire. The responses will be evaluated to determine the confidence the Government has in an Offeror’s ability to provide the services that meet the current requirement based on a demonstrated record of recent, and relevant performance.

In evaluating past performance, the Government may consider past performance information in the Offeror’s quote, information obtained from the interviews using Past Performance Questionnaires, or any other sources available to the Government, to include but not be limited to, Federal Awardee Performance and Integrity Information System (FAPIIS), other federal databases, references from Program Managers and Contracting Officers, past customers, Government agencies and activities, and other sources deemed necessary. If no past performance or non-relevant performance information is available, the offeror will not be rated favorably or unfavorably. A rating of “Neutral” will be assigned for the Past Performance in the event no record of past performance or no information exists.

The Offeror must be rated "Satisfactory” for award. An "Unsatisfactory" rating will deem the Offeror ineligible for award. A “Neutral” rating will be treated as “Satisfactory” for award purposes.

Past Performance Rating Description

Satisfactory 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.

Neutral Offerors without a record of relevant past performance or for whom information on past performance is not available or is so sparse that a past performance rating cannot be reasonably assigned.

Unsatisfactory 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.

(iii). Price: This factor will not be assigned a rating. However, the quote will be evaluated on the completeness of pricing each CLIN, price reasonableness and balancing of pricing.

All CLINS must be priced to include base and all option years. Provide an all-inclusive total price quote.

Price Reasonableness: Shall be based the proviso that prices reflect what a prudent person would pay for services in the commercial market in that prices are fair and reasonable.

Balanced Pricing. A review of prices to ensure that the price of one or more line items is not unbalanced. A quote may be rejected if the contracting officer determines that the lack of balance poses an unacceptable risk to the Government.

(iv). Representations and Certifications: Will not be evaluated, but will be reviewed for completeness.

The Government intends to award to the Offeror that presents the Lowest Price, Technically Acceptable (LPTA) quote. The vendor’s total price will be evaluated in accordance with FAR13.106-2 procedures, and to ensure the price is fair and reasonable. Base period CLINs and option CLINs IAW 52.217-9 will be evaluated as well as CLINs 9004 & 9005 will be evaluated in the event that FAR 52.217-8 is exercised to determine the price to be fair and reasonable.

(b) The Government will first evaluate the lowest-priced quote. If the Government determines that this lowest-priced quote is technically acceptable, the Government intends to select that lowest-priced quote for award and not conduct any further quote evaluations. However if the Government determines that this lowest-priced quote is not technically acceptable, then the Government will evaluate the next lowest-priced quote for technical acceptability. Again, the Government intends to select that next lowest-priced quote for award, if it is technically acceptable, and not conduct any further quote evaluations. The Government will continue this process of evaluation (evaluating the quotes in order of lowest price to highest price) until the Government finds a technically acceptable quote. However, while the Government intends to use the above described evaluation procedure and does not intend to conduct exchanges with offerors, the Government may, in its discretion, conduct exchanges with offerors if exchanges are determined to be in the Government's best interest.

(c) Options. The Government will evaluate offers for award…
