Technically Acceptable (LPTA). In determining acceptability, the Government may also consider other factors including the Contracting Officer’s knowledge of and previous experience with the offering firm, customer surveys, or other reasonable basis. The

Government intends to make an award without discussions 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 proposals if such action is in the public interest; and waive informalities and minor irregularities in offers received. The Offeror’s technical approach will be reviewed to ensure the Offeror’s understanding of the SOW.

Factor II: Schedule - Offeror shall clearly demonstrate a thorough understanding of the requirements and complexities of the SOW, and shall develop a well thought out plan and schedule (summary CPM schedule) which integrates all related activities including coordination with OGCs, outside agencies, Pentagon

Government Organizations, phasing, etc.

The summary level CPM schedule shall demonstrate the Offeror’s full comprehension of the project scope. Schedule logic and activity durations shall clearly show how the project will be completed by the contractual completion date. The logic driven summary schedule shall show design-construction milestones/ activities and sequencing/phasing for the entire project and activity dependencies shall be clearly shown.

Demonstrate the ability to complete the project within the performance period of this project (NTP – Project Completion). Identify all major activities within the schedule.

The project shall be substantially completed no later than 300 calendar days after NTP. Explain how the Integrated Project Schedule (IPS) shall be used to manage the project and provide meaningful information to the Government.

3. Factor III: Pricing- The Offeror’s price proposal shall include a breakdown of all costs using the same format as Attachment J-4. A price proposal that is not in the same format as Attachment J-4 will be determined nonresponsive and will not be considered.

Price will be evaluated to determine the reasonableness of the Offeror’s proposal.

Price will be determined reasonable in accordance with one or more of the techniques in FAR 15.404-1. The Government may determine that a proposal is unacceptable if the prices proposed are materially unbalanced between line items or sub-line items. Unbalanced pricing exists when, despite an acceptable total evaluated price, the price of one or more contract line items is significantly overstated or understated as indicated by the application of cost or price analysis techniques. A proposal may be rejected if the Contracting Officer determines that the lack of balance poses an unacceptable risk to the Government.
