(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 the SF 1449, 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 30 calendar days from the date specified for receipt of offers, unless another time period is specified in an addendum to the solicitation.

(d) Product samples. When required by the solicitation, product samples shall be submitted at or prior to the time specified for receipt of offers. Unless otherwise specified in this solicitation, these samples shall be submitted at no expense to the Government, and returned at the sender's request and expense, unless they are destroyed during preaward testing.

(e) 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.

(f) 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. The Government reserves the right to make an award on any item for a quantity less than the quantity offered, at the unit prices offered, unless the offeror specifies otherwise in the offer.

The Government reserves the right to hold discussions, if deemed necessary by the Contracting Officer. A Technical Evaluation Panel will evaluate all proposals based on the proposed/documentation provided. The evaluations will be based on the evaluation criteria set forth below.

a. EVALUATION PROCESS: Evaluations will be conducted utilizing the Best Value.

2. EVALUATION CRITERIA –

1. Basis for Award: An award of this contract will be made on a competitive best value basis, using “best value tradeoff” basis. Evaluation will be conducted in accordance with the evaluation criteria below:

I. Factor 1-Technical

a. Subfactor 1a-Technical Approach

b. Subfactor 1b-Management Approach

c. Subfactor 1c_Organizational Experience

II. Factor 2-Past Performance III. Factor 3-Price

3. Evaluation Factors/Sub-Factors are as follows:

Evaluation Factor 1- Technical

SubFactor 1a-Technical Approach: The technical approach will be evaluated to the degree to which the Offeror’s technical approach demonstrates:

• A clear understanding of all the objectives and tasks and how their approach meet and/or exceeds the requirements of the PWS, specifically task 1, task 2, task 3, task 6, task 7 and task 9.

• The methodology and flexibility that will be used in accomplishing the PWS tasks.

• Overall capabilities to perform the specific objectives and tasks as defined in the Performance Work Statement.

SubFactor 1b-Management Approach: The management approach will be evaluated to the degree to which the Offeror’s management approach demonstrates:

• A clear understanding of all the objectives and tasks and how their approach meet and/or exceeds the requirements of the PWS, specifically task 12, task 13, and task 14.

• The methodology and flexibility that will be used in accomplishing the PWS tasks.

• Overall capabilities to perform the specific objectives and tasks as defined in the Performance Work Statement.

SubFactor 1c-Organizational Experience: Organizational experience will be evaluated to the degree to which the Offeror’s organizational experience demonstrates:

Organizational experience that is identical to and/or similar to services specified within the PWS.

Organization has current capabilities that will ensure performance of this requirement in accordance with the PWS and required timelines. Evidence of supporting sub-contractors, consultants, and business partners will be considered.

Existing school operations, student assessments, financial management, hiring, security, and transportation is identical to and/or similar to services specified within the PWS.

(3) Evaluation factor 2-Past Performance: An Offeror’s past performance will be evaluated to determine the confidence the Government has in an Offeror’s ability to provide the product and services that meet the current requirement based on a demonstrated record of recent, relevant performance. In addition to past performance references provided in the proposal, the Government may also consider information obtained through other sources such as Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS).

Relevant past performance includes efforts of the same or similar scope, magnitude of effort, and complexity this solicitation requires, include specific examples, if appropriate. E.g., “These include efforts where the Offeror provided services similar to those outlined in the performance work statement.

Recent efforts are defined as those efforts, which have been performed during any portion of the last five years, including those efforts currently being performed.

References and other sources of past performance information will not be individually rated. The Government will consider the collective record of all recent and relevant past performance in assessing a rating.

In the case of an Offeror, together with any proposed major subcontractors, without a record of relevant past performance or for whom information on past performance is not available, a “Neutral Confidence” rating will be assigned to the Past Performance Factor and the Offeror will be evaluated neither favorably nor unfavorably on past performance.

Rating Standards for the Non Price Proposal

Combined Technical/Risk Rating (Excluding Past Performance)

Adjectival Rating

Description

Outstanding Proposal indicates an exceptional approach and understanding of the requirements and contains multiple strengths, and risk of unsuccessful performance is low.

Good Proposal indicates a thorough approach and understanding of the requirements and contains at least one strength, and risk of unsuccessful performance is low to moderate.

Acceptable Proposal meets requirements and indicates an adequate approach and understanding of the requirements, and risk of unsuccessful performance is no worse than moderate.

Marginal Proposal has not demonstrated an adequate approach and understanding of the requirements, and/or risk of unsuccessful performance is high.

Unacceptable Proposal does not meet requirements of the solicitation, and thus, contains one or more deficiencies, and/or risk of unsuccessful performance is unacceptable. Proposal is unawardable.

The Government will use the rating scheme listed in table below when conducting the evaluation outlined above for the Past Performance factor.

Past Performance Relevancy Rating Method

Adjectival Rating Description

Very Relevant Present/past performance effort involved essentially the same scope and magnitude of effort and complexities this solicitation requires.

Relevant Present/past performance effort involved similar scope and magnitude of effort and complexities this solicitation requires.

Somewhat Relevant Present/past performance effort involved some of the scope and magnitude of effort and complexities this solicitation requires.

Not Relevant Present/past performance effort involved little or none of the scope and magnitude of effort and complexities this solicitation requires.

Performance Confidence Assessments Rating Method

Adjectival Rating Description

Substantial Confidence Based on the offeror’s recent/relevant performance record, the Government has a high expectation that the offeror will successfully perform the required effort.

Satisfactory Confidence Based on the offeror’s recent/relevant performance record, the Government has a reasonable expectation that the offeror will successfully perform the required effort.

Neutral Confidence No recent/relevant performance record is available or the offeror’s performance record is so sparse that no meaningful confidence assessment rating can be reasonably assigned.

The offeror may not be evaluated favorably or unfavorably on the factor of past performance.

Limited Confidence Based on the offeror’s recent/relevant performance record, the Government has a low expectation that the offeror will successfully perform the required effort.

No Confidence Based on the offeror’s recent/relevant performance record, the Government has no expectation that the offeror will be able to successfully perform the required effort.

Best Value Evaluation Standard Definitions

Rating The evaluators’ conclusions (supported by narrative write-ups) identifying the strengths, weaknesses, and deficiencies of an evaluation factor or subfactor. The ratings for each Non-Cost/Price Factor and each of its subfactors will be expressed as an adjective.

Strength An aspect of an offeror's proposal that has merit or exceeds specified performance or capability requirements in a way that will be advantageous to the Government during contract performance.

Weakness A flaw in the proposal that increases the risk of unsuccessful contract performance.

Significant Weakness A flaw that appreciably increases the risk of unsuccessful contract performance.

Deficiency A material failure of a proposal to meet a Government requirement or a combination of significant weaknesses in a proposal that increases the risk of unsuccessful contract performance to an unacceptable level.

Risk The potential for unsuccessful contract performance. The consideration of risk assesses the degree to which an offeror’s proposed approach to achieving the technical factor or subfactor may involve risk of disruption of schedule, increased cost or degradation of performance, the need for increased Government oversight, and the likelihood of unsuccessful contract performance.

Performance Confidence Assessment

An evaluation of the likelihood (or Government’s confidence) that the offeror will successfully perform the solicitation’s requirements; the evaluation is based upon past performance information.

Recency Pertains to past performance information, is a measure of the time that has elapsed since the past performance reference occurred. Recency is generally expressed as a time period during which past performance references are considered relevant.

Relevency Pertains to past performance information, is a measure of the extent of similarity between the service/support effort, complexity, dollar value, contract type, and subcontract/teaming or other comparable attributes of past performance examples and the solicitation requirements; and a measure of the likelihood that the past performance is an indicator of future performance.

Evaluation Factor 3-Price:

(a) Price will be evaluated separately from technical and past performance.

(b) Price analysis will be conducted to ensure the Government receives a fair and reasonable price in accordance with FAR 15.404-1(b)(2).

(c) Total Evaluated Price (TEP): Total evaluated price will consist of the sum of all proposed CLINs and or SubCLINS in the Pricing Worksheet and the Option to Extend Services IAW FAR clause 52.217-8.

(d) FAR 52.217-8 Option to Extend Services. Both the solicitation and the resultant contract(s) shall contain FAR Clause 52.217-8, Option to Extend Services. This clause allows for up to an additional six (6) month continued contract performance if required. Offerors shall not propose pricing for this clause as it will be automatically calculated as part of the TEP in the Pricing Worksheet. FAR 52.217-8 will be calculated by dividing the offeror TEP by 60 to get the per month amount. The per month amount will get the multiple by 6 to account for 6 months of continued services. The offeror 6 months of service will then get added to the offeror proposed TEP. The FAR 52.217-8 calculation and analysis will be done for evaluation purposes only and will not get added as a separate CLIN and or subCLIN.
