(D) Facility Clearance Requirement: To be eligible for contract award, 8(a) Offerors must certify that the offeror possesses on the proposal due date a current/active DoD Industrial Facility Security Clearance at the SECRET level or above. There will be no exceptions or extensions to this requirement. All companies aligning as a Joint Venture (JV) candidate must have an active secret clearance individually by proposal due date. This security clearance is a PASS/FAIL requirement to be verified by the Government no later than proposal due date. Washington Headquarters Services/Acquisition Directorate will NOT sponsor potential offerors for the facility clearance requirement. Any Offeror who cannot be verified as having an active/current DoD Industrial Facility Security Clearance, at the SECRET level, at proposal due date, shall be deemed ineligible for award and their proposal will not be further considered by the Government. This is a pass/fail factor.

E) General: Relative Importance of the Evaluation Factors- Factor I (Key Personnel/Staffing Plan), Factor II (Technical/Management Capability) and Factor III (Past Performance) are equal and when combined are significantly more important than Factor IV (Price).

To be eligible for contract award, Offerors must certify, that, on the proposal due date, they possess a current/active DoD Industrial Facility Security Clearance at the SECRET level or above. If the offeror passes the Facility Clearance Requirement, the offeror will then be evaluated under Factor I (Key Personnel/Staffing Plan) and provided an adjectival rating.

If an offeror receives an “Unacceptable” rating under Factor I (Key Personnel/Staffing Plan), the offeror shall be ineligible for award and shall not be further evaluated. If an offeror receives a rating greater than “Unacceptable”, the offeror will be evaluated under Factor II (Technical/Management Capability).

If an offeror receives an “Unacceptable” rating under Factor II (Technical/Management Capability), the offeror shall be ineligible for award and shall not be further evaluated. If an offeror receives a rating greater than “Unacceptable”, the offeror will be evaluated under Factor III (Past Performance).

If the offeror receives a “No Confidence” rating under Factor III (Past Performance), the offeror shall be ineligible for award and shall not be further considered. If an offeror receives a rating greater than “No Confidence” under Factor III (Past Performance, then the offeror’s price shall be evaluated under Factor VI (Price).

Factor III Past Performance:

(a) Past performance will be evaluated as detailed below.

(b) To be determined recent the projects referenced by the contractor must have been completed within five (5) years from the date of solicitation issuance or currently ongoing and have completed at least six (6) months of performance by solicitation issuance. If currently ongoing, the extent of actual performance will be considered in determining the project’s relevance.

(c) The government may utilize some or all the following sources of past performance information for evaluation.

• Past Performance Questionnaire submitted by contractor’s client for the referenced project(s)

• Past Performance Information Retrieval System (PPIRS)

• Federal Awardee Performance and Integrity Information System (FAPIIS)

• Other sources or databases available to the Government such as interviews with program managers, contracting officer, and commercial available websites

(d) Contractors with a No Confidence past performance rating may be afforded an opportunity to address alleged deficiencies. Failure of a contractor to disclose a relevant Government contract with poor past performance may affect the contractor's past performance rating.

(e) The Government may consider past performance information regarding predecessor companies or subcontractor companies if the predecessor’s performance is relevant to the Contractor’s performance under this solicitation. The Government reserves the right to determine the prime Contractor’s past performance as more significant than other partnerships.

Past Performance Relevancy shall be determined using the following adjectival ratings:

Past Performance Relevancy Ratings:

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 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 shall be evaluated using the following adjectival ratings:

Performance Confidence Assessments Evaluation Ratings:

Rating Description

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

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

Fair and reasonable pricing will be evaluated in accordance with the price evaluation techniques in FAR 15.404-1. If a fair and reasonable price cannot be determined from price analysis, the Government will request cost and pricing data in accordance with FAR 15.403-4.

• Extension of Services: For purposes of evaluating overall pricing and the potential use of FAR 52.217-8, continuity of services, the Contractor’s total proposed price for one (1) twelve (12) months base plus four

(4) twelve (12) months option years and a six (6) months extension will include a period of performance not to exceed 66-Month period. The total proposed price for the base and option years plus the price for the continuity of services will, for evaluation purposes, be considered the Contractor’s total proposed price.

• Unbalanced Pricing: The offeror’s total price and each sub-CLIN and each option CLIN may be evaluated for Unbalanced Pricing in accordance with FAR 15.404-1(g).
