1. BASE ACCESS:

8. Marine Corps Installations East - Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune and Marine Corps Air Station New River have implemented the new RAPIDGate program intended to enhance installation access control. However, RAPIDGate contains significant changes that may affect contractor’s and their employee’s access to these installations. In order to gain access to Marine Corps Base (MCB), Camp Lejeune and/or Marine Corps Air Station (MCAS), New River, non-Federal Government and non-DoD issued ID cardholders require identity proofing and vetting to determine fitness and eligibility for access. Specifically, a check of records through the National Crime Information Center (NCIC) Interstate Identification Index (III) is the installation's minimum background check for access to MCB, Camp Lejeune and/or MCAS, New River for non-Common Access Card holders, to include entrance of visitors.

8. MCB, Camp Lejeune and MCAS, New River applies the following non-Federal Government cardholder criteria to determine the authorized type of access control credentials:

1. Public-Private Venture (PPV) Housing and Installation Volunteers: Local Population Credential (The following are examples of Installation Volunteers: (Red Cross, Community College Instructors and Students, Commissary Baggers, Naval Hospital Volunteers, Family Readiness Volunteers, Wounded Warrior Volunteers, and any other organization approved by the Commanding General, Marine Corps Installation East-Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune and Commanding Officer, MCAS, New River)

8. Contractor Common Access Card (CAC) Eligibility: Contractor personnel authorized CAC’s are exempt from RAPIDGate enrollment.

8. Contractor personnel who are ineligible for a CAC will be required to either obtain a 30-Day pass followed by a 4-Day pass* or enroll in the RAPIDGate Program. RAPIDGate is a voluntary program due to associated costs. For further information concerning contractor access, please contact the Contractor Vetting Office at 910-450-5978 or visit Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune (http://www.lejeune.marines.mil/) or MCAS New River (http://www.newriver.marines.mil/) websites. For information concerning enrolling in RAPIDGate please visit their website at www.rapidgate.com.

8. The Government will not be responsible for any access delays. Delays that may result from inadequate planning are contractor responsibility. Any and all costs associated with RAPIDGate are the sole responsibility of the contractor.

8. Contractors will be issued a one-time pass for 30 days. Upon expiration of the 30 day pass, they will only be issued a 4 day pass every 4 days thereafter, for the duration of the contract.

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:

Vendors shall submit quotes only via e-mail to kathy.wilcox@usmc.mil. Questions shall be submitted to Kathy Wilcox no later than 16 April 2018.Questions submitted after 16April 2018 will not be accepted. Quotes submitted after RFQ closing date and time will not be considered for an award.

Low Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) will be evaluated on: (1) quality of Chemicals, (2) ability to meet delivery times and location requirements, (3) past performance and, (4) price.

The Government intends to award a single contract on an “all or none basis” to the lowest price technically acceptable quote. In order to be technically acceptable, the quote must meet all requirements, with a satisfactory past performance history.

Award will be made on an all or nothing basis for all required chemicals at both locations.

The Government intends to evaluate quotes and award a contract without discussions with vendors. Vendors should not expect requests for clarification or additional information from the Government. Therefore, the vendor’s initial quote should contain the vendor’s best terms from a price and technical standpoint. The Government may reject any or all quotes if such action is in the public interest; and may waive informalities and minor irregularities in quotes received.

Quotes will be evaluated and ranked according to price, from lowest to highest. The Government reserves the right to evaluate only the technical quote of the lowest price quote. Other technical quotes may not be evaluated unless the Government determines the lowest price quote to be unacceptable or non-responsive. In the event the Government determines the lowest price quote to be unacceptable, the technical quote of the next lowest price quote will be evaluated. This process will continue until a technical quote is determined to be acceptable.

Technical Acceptability. Quotes will be deemed acceptable or unacceptable based on a review of the following factors:

Factor 1 – Technical aspects

Factor 2 – Ability to meet delivery times and location requirements;

Factor 3 – Past performance

Factor 4 – Price

UNACCEPTABLE TECHNCIAL FACTOR. A finding of unacceptable in one technical factor or sub factor shall result in the entire quote being evaluated as unacceptable.

FACTOR 1 – TECHNICAL ASPECTS/Quality of chemical to include:

Sub factor A – Chemical Analysis. Quoter shall submit the chemical analysis for each chemical offered. Technical acceptability shall meet all empirical requirements listed in Section B.

Sub factor B – MSDS. Quoter shall submit the MSDS for each specific chemical offered. Technically acceptable is submission of the MSDS.

FACTOR 2 – DELIVERY. Quoter shall state they have the ability to meet the delivery times and location requirements as shown in the Del8very Section of the Statement of Work.

FACTOR 3 – PAST PERFORMANCE. The Government intends to award a contract to the lowest price, technically acceptable quote that demonstrates a satisfactory record of performance. Information utilized in evaluating past performance will be obtained from a combination of the references listed in the quote (via the Past Performance Reference Form), other customers known to the Government, consumer protection organizations, and others who may have relevant information. No information will be considered which is over three (3) years old. If the quotes does not have a record or relevant past performance or for whom information on past performance is not available, the quote may not be evaluated favorable or unfavorable or past performance.

FACTOR 4 – PRICE. Price will be the deciding factor for all offers that are found to be acceptable. Quoter shall submit pricing, using the SF 1449, on all items to be eligible for award. Award will be made on an all or nothing basis for all required chemicals at both locations.

(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).
