Statements that the Offeror understands, can, or will comply with the PWS (including referenced publications, technical data, etc.);

statements paraphrasing the PWS or parts thereof (including applicable publications, technical data, etc.); and phrases such as “standard procedures will be employed” or “well known techniques will be used”, etc. will be considered unacceptable. Offerors shall assume that the Government has no prior knowledge of their facilities and experience and will base its evaluation on the information presented in the Offeror’s proposal. Elaborate brochures or documentation, binding, detailed artwork, or other embellishments are unnecessary and are not desired.

The Offeror’s technical approach, shall, at minimum, be prepared in a form consistent with the PWS and the evaluation criteria set forth in Section M of this solicitation. The section shall be prepared in an orderly format and in sufficient detail to enable the Government to make a thorough evaluation of the Contractor’s technical competence and ability to comply with the contract task requirements specified in the PWS. The Offeror shall address as specifically as possible the actual methodology intended for accomplishing the PWS tasks. The technical shall be organized according to the following:

a) Table of Contents

b) Inspection Protocols

c) Testing Standards

d) Corrective Maintenance Procedures

e) Quality Control Measures

f) Certifications

g) Sample Schedule

h) On-site Operation Plan

3. Reporting Plan

4. Past Performance. The past performance evaluation will be accomplished by Offeror’s submission in identifying recent performance information from no more than five (5) Federal, State, Local Government, or commercial agency task orders or contracts that the Offeror has performed. Recent is defined as within the past three (3) calendar years from the closing date of this solicitation. Each narrative shall also include a contract number or commercial equivalent and amount: the name, telephone number, and email address of the Government or commercial representative who can verify past performance. The past performance evaluation will be accomplished by reviewing aspects of an Offeror’s recent and relevant past performance, focusing on and targeting performance which is relevant to the effort as it directly relates to the work being procured under this solicitation and as defined in Section M.

Past performance information described herein is required on the Offeror and all subcontractors, teaming partners, and/or joint venture partners proposed to perform 51% of the proposed effort based on the total proposed price. The Offeror shall submit, along with the information required in this paragraph, a consent letter, executed by each subcontractor, teaming partner, and/or joint venture partner, authorizing release of adverse past performance information to the Offeror so the Offeror can respond to such information. For each identified effort for a commercial customer, the Offeror shall also submit a client authorization letter, authorizing release to the Government of requested information on the Offeror’s performance.

a. The Offeror shall submit the Past Performance Questionnaires (Exhibit B) by the scheduled due date, to the Contracting Officer at the email addresses specified in Section L2 and L3.

b. The Offeror shall include documentation regarding their past performance as it related to the work being procured under this solicitation. The Offeror shall not go back farther than five (5) years for services for the submitted data. The past performance data shall document a successful history of past contract performance.

c. In conducting the past performance evaluation, the Government reserves the right to use both the information provided by the Offeror and information obtained from other sources, such as the Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS) or similar systems, Defense Contact Management Agency (DCMA), Federal Awardee Performance and Integrity Information System (FAPIIS), Electronic Subcontract Reporting System (eSRS), performance recognition documents, and information obtained from any other source. Offerors are reminded that both independent data and data provided by Offerors in their proposals may be used by the Government to evaluate Offeror past performance. However, the burden of providing thorough, complete, and current past performance information as requested in this paragraph remains with the Offeror.

Proposals that do not contain the information requested by this paragraph risk rejection or a less than acceptable performance rating by the Government. All past performance comments received will be considered and could affect the overall rating. The overall past performance evaluation is a subjective decision based on the whole of all data received. In the case of an Offeror without a record of relevant past performance or for whom information on past performance is not available or so sparse that no meaningful past performance rating can be reasonably assigned, the Offeror may not be evaluated favorably or unfavorably on past performance (see FAR 15.305 (a)(2)(iv)).

Therefore, the Offeror shall be determined to have unknown past performance. In the context of acceptability/unacceptability, “unknown” shall be considered “acceptable.”

d. Submission Requirements. The Offeror shall submit past performance containing the following:

i. Specific Relevant Contracts Sheet – See Exhibit A, Specific Relevant Contracts Sheet.

The Offeror shall provide documentation outlining the Offeror’s past performance with contracts, as a prime or major subcontractor, which is the same or similar in nature, size, and complexity to the services being procured under this solicitation. The submittal shall include rationale supporting your assertion of relevance and how it was determined that the work performed previously was the same or similar in nature, size, and complexity to the work specified by this solicitation. Offerors are required to explain what aspects of the contracts are deemed relevant to the proposed effort, and to what aspects of the proposed effort they relate.

ii. Past Performance Questionnaire. The Offeror shall forward a copy of the Past Performance Questionnaire to the points of contract responsible for monitoring performance under such contracts. The points of contact shall return the completed questionnaires to MCIWEST RCO points of contact identified in Section L2 and L3 of this solicitation prior to the closing of the RFP. Any questionnaires not returned directly to the Contracting Specialist and Contracting Officer will not be reviewed and evaluated.

The information contained in the questionnaires will be used to evaluate the Offeror’s past performance. New entities that have no past customers shall annotate on the Summary Page that they have had no previous clients.

L5.4. PERIOD OF ACCPETANCE OF OFFERS. The pricing terms and conditions of the proposal shall be valid for ninety (90) days from receipt.

L5.5. SYSTEM FOR AWARD MANAGEMENT (SAM). The Offeror must be registered in the SAM database with current information included therein.

SECTION M - EVALUATION FACTORS FOR AWARD

EVAL FACTORS/BASIS OF AWARD

M1. EVALUATION PROCESS.

This acquisition is being conducted under FAR Part 12, Acquisition of Commercial items, and FAR Part 13.5 Simplified Procedures for Certain Commercial Products and Commercial Services. This acquisition is also being conducted as a full-and-open competition. Proposals will be evaluated using the Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) source selection procedures. Proposals will be arranged from lowest to highest price and technically evaluated accordingly. The lowest-priced proposal will be forwarded for technical evaluation. All technical factors and applicable subfactors, must be rated as Acceptable before the proposal may be considered for award. In the event the lowest priced proposal is rated as Acceptable, the evaluation process will cease and proceed to award. In the event the lowest priced offer is rated as Unacceptable the next lowest priced proposal will be evaluated. The processes will continue until either all proposals have been evaluated, or the next lowest priced proposal has been determined Acceptable.

The Government will evaluate pricing to determine fair and reasonableness per FAR 13.106-3. The proposal will be evaluated to receive a rating of Acceptable or Unacceptable based on the criteria in the technical section below. In order to be rated as Acceptable, the technical proposal must meet the Government’s minimum requirements as described in the schedule.

Award for All of the Work. The Government intends to award one (1) contract as a result of this solicitation. As set forth in FAR 52.215-1(f)(4). The Government intends to evaluate the technical portion of the proposal and award a contract without discussions to the offeror with the lowest price technically acceptable proposal (except clarifications as described in FAR 15.306(a)). The Government reserves the right to conduct discussions if the Contracting Officer later determines them to be necessary.

M2. EVALUATION CRITERIA.

The offeror’s proposal will be evaluated by the following three (3) evaluation factors:

Factor 1: Price Factor 2: Technical Capability http://www.sam.gov/ https://wawf.eb.mil/xhtml/unauth/registration/notice.xhtml

Factor 3: Past Performance

Factor 1 – Price. In order to be considered for an award, the price must be determined to be fair and reasonable, and balanced (or if unbalanced pricing exists that does not pose an unacceptable risk to the Government) using one or more techniques set forth in FAR 13.106-3(a). The Government will evaluate proposed prices for reasonableness using price analysis techniques.

Options. In accordance with the provision at FAR 52.217-5, the Government will evaluate offer for award purposes by adding the total price for all options. Evaluation of options will not obligate the Government to exercise options.

The Government may determine that an offer is Unacceptable if the option prices are significantly unbalanced.

The Government assumes that any price proposed for base and option periods reflects the possibility that a period of performance may be extended.

NOTE: The Offeror shall provide an hourly labor rate for O&A Work to be performed. This rate will be used as an estimate to aid in the Fair and Reasonableness (F&R) Determination of the offer but will not be considered as a portion of the Offeror’s overall price evaluation.
