52.212-2 EVALUATION--COMMERCIAL ITEMS (OCT 2014) “TAILORED”
(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:
This requirement contains Brand Name Only CLINs. Proposals will only be acceptable if quotes are provided for the brand names identified in those CLINs.
This requirement is 100% set-aside for small business. All responsible small businesses may submit a response which, if timely received, will be considered by the Agency.
This procurement is subject to the Buy American Act. If the product you are quoting on is not American made, you must identify the country in which it is made.
A vendor’s quote must be written in a logical, practical, clear, concise and logically assembled manner, containing all pertinent information in sufficient detail to provide the evaluators with a clear understanding of the vendor’s approach and to permit evaluation of the proposed program. It is the responsibility of the vendor to present enough information to allow the various work efforts, support, and management approaches to be meaningfully evaluated without discussions.
The vendor’s initial quote should contain the vendor’s best terms from a price and technical standpoint. However, the Government reserves the right to have discussions with vendors 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; accept other than the lowest quotation; and waive informalities and minor irregularities in quotations received. A quote must be internally consistent or the quote will be considered unrealistic and may be considered unacceptable. Evaluation of the technical approach will be based upon the extent to which the vendor thoroughly and accurately describes the overall technical solution.
Quotes will be evaluated in an efficient and minimally burdensome fashion. The Contracting Officer reserves the right to evaluate quotes without the use of formal evaluation procedures such as establishing a competitive range, conducting discussions, scoring quotations, and to make an award to other than the lowest quote.
Evaluation Factors: The following factors shall be used in the evaluation of quotes:
1. Technical Capability with two sub-factors
2. Past Performance
3. Price
1) Technical Capability: defined as the following:
(a.) Sub-Factor 1: Brand Name Only. The vendor’s quote shall provide the Brand Name only items listed in the Technical Specifications and CLINs. Shall include a statement that the vendor “understands and will comply with all requirements set forth in the Technical Specifications”. Shall provide a detailed response that clearly demonstrates how the proposed product meets or exceeds the minimum requirements to each Technical
Specifications.
(b.) Sub Factor 2: Timeless of Delivery. The Government desires 30 days ARO. Vendor shall clearly state if the quoter can meet the desired delivery of 30 days ARO or better. If not then vendor shall state delivery date.
The Technical Capability will be evaluated based upon the extent to which the vendor concisely and accurately describes the technical solution to providing all items listed in the solicitation,
2) Past Performance: The Government will not consider nor evaluate past performance that concluded more than three years from the original solicitation release date. For this volume, The vendor shall identify relevant contracts, or those portions of a relevant contract, whose performance is within three years of the proposal due date and contains efforts similar to those efforts required by this solicitation. Offerors shall also identify relevant contracts within the past three years that had any show-cause notices, cure notices, corrective action reports or termination for default.
Contract Performance Assessment Reports (CPARs) and Questionnaires (Attachment 1) will be the primary customer feedback data used to evaluate The vendor’s past performance. The Past Performance Information
Reporting System (PPIRS) will be the primary paperless method used to retrieve the CPARS for this source selection. For all contracts identified that do not have a CPARS, The vendor shall forward a copy of Past
Performance Questionnaire (Attachment 1) to that contract’s Procuring Contracting Office (PCO), Administrative
Contracting Officer (ACO), and Program Manager (PM). Please forward all questionnaires within two weeks from this solicitation’s release date to allow adequate time for the recipient to respond. Note that The vendor should not reference this solicitation’s number when distributing the past performance questionnaires to customers. The vendor shall include instructions for the customers to send completed questionnaires within two weeks of its receipt via e-mail to Mr. Christopher Rabassi, at Christopher.Rabassi @usmc.mil or via fax to (910) 451-2331. The vendor shall ensure that all points of contact are current and include an email address and phone number. The vendor shall not conduct follow-up actions with regard to this questionnaire, other than to confirm receipt by the recipient. The
Government may contact customers identified by The vendor to obtain follow-up Past Performance Information as needed.
Vendors lacking relevant past performance history will not be evaluated favorably or unfavorably on past performance and will receive a neutral rating.
Offerors are reminded that the Government reserves the right to use information to evaluate past performance obtained from sources other than those identified by The vendor. The Government may send additional questionnaires and/or obtain information from sources identified by the Government evaluation team.
3) Price: defined as the following:
In evaluating the price portion of the proposals, the Government will evaluate the Offeror’s proposed price for completeness and reasonableness.
Tradeoff process shall be the basis of Award: To evaluate price, quotes will be evaluated using a price/technical tradeoff. This process is appropriate because it is in the Government’s best interest to consider award for the best value. In evaluating the technical portion of the quote, the technical evaluators will evaluate the following factors and subfactors as described in the ―Basis of Award of the RFQ. The factors of Technical Capability and Past
Performance are weighted equally. All technical subfactors are weighted equally. All evaluation factors other than price, when combined, are approximately equal to the price factor. Proposal information provided for one factor may be used to assess other factors if the Government deems it appropriate. Failure to address part or parts of the technical factor caused by a lack of information may be assessed as a significant weakness or multiple significant weaknesses.
The quote must include four sections as follows:
Introduction of company shall not contain company identifying information on any page except the cover page.
Section 1: Introduction of company mailto:harold.Kostem@usmc.mil
Section 2: Technical (demonstration of the capability to perform all the requirements in this RFQ and Technical
Specifications as described above).
Section 3: Past Performance (See Attachment for Past Performance Questionnaire)
Section 4: Price: In evaluating the price portion of the proposals, the Government will evaluate the Offeror’s proposed price for completeness and reasonableness.
The Vendor’s quote shall be provided on each line item of the solicitation.
Vendor’s quote shall include an active Cage Code and Federal Tax Identification number in the cover page only.
Vendors are required to be registered with SAM database and have an active cage code at the time of award.
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.
