3.8.4 Return of Government-owned Property: Upon completion of any and all regularly scheduled preventive or unscheduled corrective maintenance, the Contractor shall return all equipment owned by the United States Government.

3.9 Uptime: Equipment shall be returned to operational condition within 48 hours after telephone notification from BIOMED.

3.9.1 Uptime Rate: The Contractor shall maintain an overall uptime rate of 95% or better for all equipment listed in Technical Exhibit 1. Uptime is equal to equipment availability minus down time. Uptime and down time are values used to calculate the mean time between failures

(MBTF).

3.9.2 Uptime Calculation: Uptime is calculated on a rolling 6 month basis. Until the Contractor has at least 6 months of performance experience at NHJAX, the uptime shall be calculated cumulatively for the entire duration of the contract. The downtime indicator in DMLSS or manual calculations may be used to compute these metrics.

Variables Definitions:

U= Possible Equipment Uptime (100%) H= Hours of Coverage per day H1= Begin Coverage Time during each day H2= End Coverage Time during each day A= # of covered days of the week W = Weeks of Coverage in a Year C= Uptime Commitment (per Section 3.13.1.)

Known (for this contract, per Section 1.1.3.5. & 3.13.1.):

H1= 0730 hours H2= 1600 hours A= 5 days per week W= 52 weeks per year C = 95%

Calculations:

H = 𝐻2 – 𝐻1 = 1600 – 0730 = 8.7 Hours of Coverage per day 100 100

𝑈 = 𝐻 ∗ 𝐴 ∗ 𝑊 = 8.7 ∗ 5 ∗ 52 = 2,262 𝐻𝑜𝑢𝑟𝑠 𝑜𝑓 𝑃𝑜𝑠𝑠𝑖𝑏𝑙𝑒 𝐸𝑞𝑢𝑖𝑝𝑚𝑒𝑛𝑡 𝑈𝑝𝑡𝑖𝑚𝑒

D = Hours of Calculated Downtime (Unknown) T = Total Actual Uptime Percentage (Unknown) Δ = % difference from Uptime Commitment (Unknown)

T = U – D = 2262 – D U 2262

Δ = (𝐶 − 𝑇) ∗ 100 = (.95 − 𝑇) ∗ 100

*Note* - Downtime hours shall fall within the Contractor’s hours of coverage listed in Section

1.1.3.5. Downtime hours outside of the coverage timeframe listed in Section 1.1.3.5. shall not be calculated as a metric of vendor performance. Downtime ends once the system is available for full clinical use.

3.10 End of Service Life: For all equipment, hardware, software, and accessories, covered under the terms and conditions of this contract, the vendor shall notify the COR, NHJAX, and Contracting Officer prior to this equipment’s commercial end of service life (EOSL). This notice shall be delivered one (1) year prior to the EOSL , in writing on the Vendor’s letterhead, via email to at least the following address: usn.jacksonville.navhospjaxfl.list.biomedical-repair@health.mil.

3.10.1 This specific contract deliverable shall supplement, but not supersede, any existing, external ‘End of Service Life Notification’ requirements, as set forth by other Government agencies, such as the Food & Drug Administration (FDA) or the Joint Commission.

3.10.2 Delivery of this letter shall not immediately remove the vendor’s liability of covering the equipment under the terms and conditions of this contract. Its delivery shall simply be a means to start a dialogue with the COR and DHA about the parameters associated with the commercial EOSL for the specific make/model of medical equipment.

III. ADDENDUM TO FAR 52.212-2, EVALUATION -- COMMERCIAL ITEMS - EVALUATION

CRITERIA AND BASIS FOR AWARD

A. The Government intends to evaluate quotations and issue a firm fixed price contract based on the initial quotations received, utilizing FAR SUBPART 12.6- STREAMLINED PROCEDURES

FOR EVALUATION AND SOLICITATION FOR COMMERCIAL PRODUCTS AND

COMMERCIAL SERVICES. The Government will evaluate quotes utilizing the procedures found at FAR 12.602 Streamlined Evaluation of Offers. The Government reserves the right to request revised quotations from, or negotiate final contract terms with, one or more, but not all, Offerors if later determined by the Contracting Officer to be necessary. The Government may reject any or all quotations if such action is in the public interest and issue a contract to other than the Offeror with the lowest priced quotation.

B. Incomplete quotations may be considered non-responsive and removed from further consideration.

Quotations shall be clearly and concisely written as well as being neat, indexed (cross-indexed as appropriate) and logically assembled. All pages of each part shall be appropriately numbered and identified with the name of the offeror, the date, and the solicitation number.

C. BASIS FOR AWARD

The Government will consider price and technical nonprice factors to determine the quotation that is most advantageous and represents the best value to the government. The Government will not use the formal source selection procedures described in FAR part 15. The Government will evaluate quotations utilizing the procedures of FAR 12.602 Streamlined Evaluation of Offers. This will be a firm fixed price contract.

EVALUATION CRITERIA. Evaluation of Technical Capability will be based on the information provided in the quotation. Documentation submitted in the quotation shall be evaluated to determine that the proposed service meets or exceeds the Governments minimum required specifications. Failure to clearly and unambiguously demonstrate this will result in an “unacceptable” rating.

FACTORS FOR AWARD:

There are three evaluation factors for award consisting of the following:

FACTOR 1: TECHNICAL

FACTOR 2: PAST PERFORMANCE

FACTOR 3: PRICE

FACTOR 1: TECHNICAL APPROACH

1. The TECHNICAL (capabilities) is defined as the vendor’s proposed solution(s) to successfully fulfill the contract requirements.

2. SUBMITTAL REQUIREMENTS.

The vendor shall submit technical approach and capability documentation which may include a narrative, charts, graphs, tables, drawings, product / service literature, and demonstrated authority to provide the necessary items and perform the required services identified in the performance work statement. The documentation shall clearly describe, in sufficient detail, the vendor's authority, proposed items, resources and methods to successfully fulfill the requirements including specifications, performance capability requirements, delivery schedules, warranties and all service requirements per the Request for Quotations.

3. BASIS OF EVALUATION

Evaluation of this factor is an evaluation of the vendor's demonstrated resources, capability and methods to meet all requirements. This factor will be evaluated on an Acceptable / Unacceptable basis. The vendor’s submittals will be evaluated to determine whether the proposed technical approach demonstrates a clear and unambiguous understanding and a demonstrated ability to meet the minimum requirements. Failure to demonstrate a clear and unambiguous technical approach to meeting the requirements will result in an “Unacceptable” rating for this factor.

Vendors with an Unacceptable rating may be determined ineligible for award.

FACTOR 2 - PAST PERFORMANCE

1. Offerors are required to submit examples of past performance of similar scope and complexity with their quote.

Only recent (within the last 36 months) and relevant past performance will be considered. Relevance, for the purposes of this procurement, is defined as substantially similar to the current requirement in terms of effort, complexity, dollar value, contract type. Offerors shall submit no more than three examples of past performance.

Past performance ratings will be assigned in accordance with the following chart.

Past Performance Evaluation Ratings Rating Definition Acceptable Based on the offeror’s performance record, the Government has a reasonable expectation that the offeror will successfully perform the required effort, or the offeror’s performance record is unknown.

Unacceptable Based on the offeror’s performance record, the Government has no reasonable expectation that the offeror will be able to successfully perform the required effort.

Unknown Vendors with no past performance cannot be rated favorably or unfavorably.

For this reason, vendors with no past performance will receive a rating on Unknown.

In addition to the above, the Government may review any other sources of information for evaluating past performance. Other sources may include, but are not limited to, past performance information retrieved through CPARS, Federal Awardee Performance and Integrity Information System (FAPIIS) using all CAGE / Unique
