BASIS FOR CONTRACT AWARD This acquisition will be conducted using Federal Acquisition Regulation

(FAR) Parts 12 and 13 (to include 13.5). FAR Part 15 source selection procedures will NOT be used for this acquisition.

The Government will evaluate Objectives 1 and 2 separately and award a single-award IDIQ contract for each objective.

Orders will be issued directly in writing by the Contracting Officer.

The Government will award one or two single-award Firm Fixed-Price, Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity

(IDIQ) contracts awards resulting from this solicitation to the responsible offeror or offerors whose offer conforming to the solicitation will offer the best value to the Government, price and other factors considered. The resulting IDIQ contract may be awarded to an Offeror with a higher priced quotation if the perceived benefits of the higher priced quotation merit the additional cost.

Award will be made based on the consideration of two factors: Technical Approach and Price. Technical Approach is more important than Price.

1.Technical Approach Evaluation Factor:

Volume 1 – Factor 1: Technical Approach.

Performance Work Statement (PWS): The government will evaluate the offeror’s Technical Approach in providing services as outlined in PWS.

Additionally, the government will evaluate the offeror’s submission of an actual copy of a written Functional

Hearing Assessments (FHA)/ /Functional Listening Evaluations (FLE) report with PII information redacted for evaluation, and provide a copy of the ToD / HI Certification.

Technical Approach Ratings:

The Technical Approach Factor will be rated in accordance with the following Adjective Rating Method:

Combined Technical Approach / Risk Rating Method

Adjectival Rating Description

Outstanding

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

Good

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

Acceptable

Submission indicates an adequate approach of the requirements and risk of unsuccessful performance is no worse than moderate.

Unacceptable

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

Offerors who receive an “Unacceptable” technical rating will not be considered further for award.

Volume II – Factor 2: Price. The price quotes will be evaluated for price reasonableness but not rated. Offeror’s proposed prices will be determined using Attachment 1 by multiplying the quantities identified in the RFQ by the proposed unit price for each Contract Line Item Number (CLIN) to confirm the extended amounts for each CLIN.

The individual CLINs will be totaled to determine the offeror’s total proposed price. To account for the option periods possible under Clause 52.217-8 (maximum six months), the unit prices from the last option year will be used.

FAR 52.212-2 paragraph b is addended below:

b. Evaluation of Options. The Government will evaluate offers for award purposes by adding the total price for all options to the total price for the base period. The Offeror shall submit pricing for the base period and all option periods. 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).
