52.212-2 EVALUATION--COMMERCIAL ITEMS (JAN 1999)
(a) The Government will award a set of multiple award Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) bilateral contracts from this solicitation, using FAR Part 12 and 15 procedures and the Best Value-Tradeoff approach, to the responsible offerors whose offer conforming to the solicitation will be most advantageous to the Government, price and other factors considered. The Government will not award to any offeror who receives an “unacceptable” rating in any of the factors or subfactors. The Government will not pay a price it considers to be disproportionate to the benefits associated with the proposed products/services. The Government may select for award offers in which the total proposed price is not necessarily the lowest, but whose overall proposals are deemed sufficiently more advantageous to the Government so as to justify the payment of a higher price. Conversely, the Government may select for award the offerors whose total proposed price is the lowest, when other proposals are not sufficiently more advantageous so as to justify the payment of a higher price. The Government anticipates awarding to at least three (3) contracts from this solicitation. The following factors shall be used to evaluate offers:
Evaluation Factors:
(1) Technical
(i) Technical Approach
(A) Wide range of authorized distributors/manufacturers represented. For purposes of this solicitation, a “wide range” consists of a minimum of three (3) distributors/manufacturers.
(B) Wide range of available products offered. Demonstrate the ability to provide a variety of products in all categories covered by the Sample Equipment List (SEL) in Technical Exhibit A (TE-A, “Sample Equipment List (SEL)”). Includes examination of all terms and conditions, license agreements, and other legal provisions associated with each item listed in TE-A, “Sample Equipment List (SEL)”.
(C) All Interactive Display equipment offered in response to TE-A (“Sample Equipment
List (SEL)”) satisfy all the technical requirements/salient characteristics in TE-B (“Technical Specifications/Salient Characteristics”).
(ii) Management Approach
(A) Ability to serve a wide geographic area for delivery, unpacking, assembly/installation and disposal of packing materials/debris.
(B) Approach to providing installation/assembly services (See paragraph 5 of the PWS).
Includes approach of corrective action if Contractor fails to properly install any of the equipment delivered under this contract (see PWS paragraph 5.5.6).
(C) Business/financial agreement with manufacturer(s) guaranteeing manufacture and delivery of products.
(iii) Customer Service
(A) A user-friendly web portal for checking delivery status, warranty status, and requesting repairs.
(B) Warranties that clearly exhibit all terms required in this solicitation (see PWS paragraph 4.3).
(C) Variety of options in providing user-friendly training for all interactive display equipment.
(2) Past Performance: The overall evaluation will also take into account past performance information, including past contract actions, information on problems identified on contracts and offeror’s corrective actions. The past performance evaluation will result in an assessment of the offeror’s probability of meeting the solicitation requirements. The past performance evaluation considers each offeror’s demonstrated recent and relevant record of performance in meeting past requirements. In addition to the specific contracts provided by the offeror, evaluation of past performance may also involve an examination of any information pertaining to the offeror on the Past Performance Information Retrieval System (PPIRS). One performance confidence assessment rating will be assigned for each offeror after evaluating the offeror’s recent past performance, focusing on performance that is relevant to the contract requirements. The relevancy rating will be based upon: similarity of service/support, complexity, and dollar value. In the case of an offeror without a record of relevant past performance or for whom information on past performance is not available, the offeror will not be evaluated favorably or unfavorably on past performance.
(3) Price. The Government will perform price analysis IAW FAR Part 15.404-1(b) and applicable supplements and guides to ensure a fair and reasonable price. The price factor will include an evaluation of:
(i) Firm fixed unit prices for all items listed in TE-A (“Sample Equipment List (SEL)”). An editable (MS Excel) copy of this spreadsheet will be included with the posting of this solicitation for offerors’ use.
(ii) Shipping and Installation Charges. Price analysis will include an examination of shipping and installation charges for the two (2) destinations (taken from TE-C, “Delivery Addresses and Points of Contact”) listed in 52.212-1, as well as all support data such as number of employees, number of hours, number of supervisors, salaries, etc.
(iii) Proposed prices that are found to be either unreasonably high or unrealistically low in relation to the proposed work may be indicative of an inherent lack of understanding of the solicitation requirements and may result in the overall proposal being considered unacceptable.
Technical and Past Performance are equally important and when combined are more important than Price.
Within the Technical Factor, the sub factors are approximately equal.
See Addendum to 52.212-4 for how the Government will provide Fair Opportunity and award Delivery Orders subsequent to the initial minimum orders. The evaluation procedures and factors for the individual delivery orders can be found in in 52.212-4 Addendum, paragraph “u”.
(b) NOT USED.
(c) A written notice of award or acceptance of an offer mailed or otherwise furnished to the successful offeror within the time for acceptance specified in the offer, shall result in a binding contract without further action by either party. Before the offer's specified expiration time, the Government may accept an offer (or part of an offer), whether or not there are negotiations after its receipt, unless a written notice of withdrawal is received before award.
