FAR 52.212-2 - Evaluation – Commercial Items (OCT 2014)

(a) The Government will award a contract resulting from this solicitation to the responsible offeror whose offer conforming to the solicitation will be most advantageous to the Government, price and other factors considered. The following factors shall be used to evaluate offers and are listed in descending order of importance. Non-price factors, when combined, are more important than price.

Factor 1: Technical Acceptability

Technical Acceptability will be evaluated on the ability of the offeror to overhaul the Actuator Cylinder in accordance with the SOW. Offerors shall complete and submit the attached Technical Acceptability Matrix (Attachment 4) as part of their proposal.

Factor 2: Past Performance

Past Performance will be evaluated to assess the confidence in the offeror’s ability to fulfill the solicitation requirements. The evaluation will consider the offeror’s demonstrated record of relevant performance in performing the required services and will consider areas of quality, meeting delivery schedules, compliance with contractual requirements, and customer satisfaction. Relevant is defined as performing Actuator Cylinder Assembly overhaul services as stated in the solicitation to other government and/or commercial entities.

Offeror’s shall provide completed Past Performance Information Sheets (Attachment 5) for three (3) relevant contracts (references) completed within the preceding five (5) year period. If no relevant contracts are available, the three (3) most recent contracts completed in the last five (5) years shall be used. Contracts (references) listed may include those with the Federal Government, State and Local Governments or their agencies, and Commercial Customers.

If an offeror has no relevant past performance history, the offeror must affirmatively state that it possesses no relevant past performance history. If an offeror does not have a record of relevant past performance or past performance information is either unavailable or so sparse that no meaningful rating can be reasonably assigned, the offeror will receive a Neutral Confidence rating.

The Government intends to also use information available from past contracts/purchase orders with the USCG, delivery information found in USCG’s Asset Logistics Management Information System, and any information found using sources such as Federal government sources, Past Performance Information Retrieval System (PPIRS)/Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS).

Factor 3: Price

The preferred FOB point for shipments under this requirement is FOB destination. Proposals submitting FOB Origin terms should include all applicable customs, duties, taxes, and shipping charges. Any proposal providing FOB Origin terms that does not provide this information will be removed from consideration for award.

Prices will be evaluated to determine fair and reasonableness. However, offerors are advised that if a price appears extremely low, prices will be evaluated to determine realism. Prices that are extremely low may be judged as unrealistic and may indicate the offeror has misunderstood the nature of the work. The Government will evaluate prices for each contract period of performance including escalation rates between contract periods. The Government may determine that a proposal is unacceptable if the option period prices are significantly unbalanced. Evaluation of options shall not obligate the Government to exercise the option.

It is DHS policy that pricing for competitive acquisitions should be based on adequate price competition. However, in the event only one responsible Offeror is obtained as a result of this solicitation, that Offeror may be required to submit Data Other than Certified Cost or Pricing Data (FAR 15.403-3) to support price negotiations.

Offerors are required to submit a completed Schedule attached to the solicitation as an Excel spreadsheet. Failure to submit the price proposal in the Excel document may result in the proposal being removed from award consideration.

(b) Options. The government will evaluate offers for award purposes by adding the total price for all options to the total price for the basic requirement. 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).

(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.

(End of clause) Additional Contract Requirements

SERVICE CONTRACT LABOR STANDARDS COMPLIANCE AND PLACE(S) OF PERFORMANCE

Services shall be performed at the contractor operated facility and the contractor shall provide all tools, equipment, personnel and other resources necessary for contract performance. It is anticipated the resulting contract will incorporate the Service Contract Labor Standards. The applicable Department of Labor Wage Determination for the place of performance will be incorporated and made a material part of the resulting contract. The contractor shall be required to pay its employees at least the prevailing wages and benefits issued by the Department of Labor in the form of Wage Determinations during performance of the resulting contract.

At this time the place of performance is unknown. As required by FAR 22.1009-2 the following possible places of performance have been identified with their applicable Wage Determinations:

Wage Determinations are available on-line at http://www.dol.gov at no cost to the public. Potential offerors can immediately obtain Wage Determinations for their locality. The Department of Labor’s (DOL) Wage Determinations OnLine website link for frequently asked questions is http://www.dol.gov/faqs.aspx. The DOL website also provides assistance in choosing the applicable wage determination and provides automatic notifications for updates and/or changes to changes to wage determinations.

WHD Publication 1313 Notice to Employees Working on Government Contracts will be included in the resulting contract. The contractor shall be required to post this Notice along with a copy of the Wage Determination in a prominent, accessible place in the worksite before contract performance begins. This publication advises employees of the compensation (wages and fringe benefits) required to be paid or furnished under the Act and satisfies the notice requirements in paragraph (g) of the clause at 52.222-41, Service Contract Labor Standards. Failure to comply with this requirement is a violation of section (2)(a)(4) of the Act and of the resulting contract.

Additional class of employees: IAW FAR 52.222-41 paragraph (c)(2)(i) the contractor shall be required to classify any class of service employee which is not listed in the wage determination and which is to be employed under the contract. The conforming procedure shall be initiated by the contractor prior to the performance of contract work by the unlisted class of employee.
