SUMMARY OF CHANGES

SECTION SF 1449 - CONTINUATION SHEET

The following have been modified:

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 is a request for OPEN MARKET PRICED quotes. The proposed acquisition is 100% set-aside for Small Business. The associated North American Industrial Classification System (NAICS) Code is 541513 Computer Facilities Management Services and the associated size standard is $27.5 million.

BASIS OF AWARD: The Government will solicit and award this contract using simplified acquisition procedures, in accordance with FAR Part 12 and Subpart 13.5.

The term “offeror” or “offer” as used in FAR 52.212-1 shall be understood to mean “Quoter” and “quote,” respectively. Further, the term “award” shall be understood to describe the Government’s issuance of a purchase order in response to a request for quotes (RFQ).

The basis of the award is “Best Value” to the Government. The Government will issue a single firm fixed-price purchase order on an "all or none" basis. However, the Government reserves the right to award no contract at all, depending on the quality of the quotes submitted. The Government will award a single contract resulting from this request for quotes to the responsible vendor whose quote, conforming to the RFQ; will be most advantageous to the Government, price and other factors considered. 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: (1) Technical Capability to include Management Approach, Staffing Plan with Resumes, and the ability to provide personnel on the first day of the period of performance, (2) Company Experience, (3) Past Performance; and (4) 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 to other than the lowest price. When combined, all non-cost factors are significantly more important than the price. 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”. The factors of Technical Capability, Past Performance, and Company Experience are weighted equally. All technical subfactors are weighted equally. Technical Capability, Company Experience, and Past Performance, when combined, are significantly more important than the price

EVALUATION. Vendors responding to this announcement shall submit their quote in accordance with FAR 52.212-1. Submission of quote shall include the following:

Technical Capability – Factor 1

Technical and Management Approach – The offeror’s technical and management approach shall, at a minimum, address each of the following factors separately, as they apply to the Performance Work Statement (PWS). All offerors’ quotes will be evaluated using the following criteria. The quote must include a comprehensive and expanded explanation of how each of the following factors would be satisfied. Merely restating the PWS requirement is not acceptable.

Sub factor A: Demonstrates an acceptable work accomplishment plan to perform the work with properly qualified individuals and a thorough understanding of the PWS. This shall also include an explanation as to how the contractor will comply with the Acceptable Quality Level for Maintaining Required Staffing Levels identified in the Performance Requirements Summary (PRS). Each quote will be evaluated to determine the adequacy of the contractors proposed plans, methods and procedures to accomplish the tasks contained in the PWS. Each quote will be evaluated for their completeness in addressing all areas contained in the PWS, their demonstrated understanding of the scope of the PWS, and their adequacy in proposing a work plan that will meet the Government’s requirement.

Sub factor B: Provides an organization chart that clearly describes proposed staffing meeting the staffing level stated in the PWS and how the work will be accomplished utilizing this staffing.

Sub factor C: Submit resumes and any other information for personnel, that demonstrate their experience and qualifications to perform the duties of this contract as stated in the PWS

Company Experience- Factor 2

The vendor shall demonstrate experience as a Prime Contractor in performing Energy Management Control Systems Maintenance in a high-tempo environment. The Government may give greater consideration to the vendors experienced in Energy Management Control Systems with same or similar tasks described in PWS. The Vendor shall identify (contract number, dates of services and Government contact information for verification) contracts that it has performed as the prime contractor to demonstrate that it has the corporate experience associated with all requirements of PWS. Vendor shall not receive credit for this factor if information provided is missing or cannot be verified

Past Performance- Factor 3

The Government will not consider nor evaluate past performance that concluded more than three years from the original solicitation release date. Relevant contracts include EMCS of similar size and scope to the requirements listed in the Performance Work Statement (PWS). Only the following entities will be used in the past performance evaluation: (a) the prime contractor; and (b) entities that perform at least 30% of the proposed total price for the contract, also referred to as principal subcontractors and other principal entities. The purpose of the past performance evaluation is to assess the degree of confidence the Government has in The vendor’s ability to provide this service that meet the solicitation requirements based on The vendor’s demonstrated record of performance. 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 (e.g., service, type effort, contract tasks, contract type, contract dollar value, etc.), 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. Gary Scidmore, at gary.n.scidmore@usmc.mil. 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.

Price- Factor 4

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 to other than the lowest price.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR PREPARATION OF QUOTES:

Quoters shall submit two (2) copies of technical volume. One (1) Copy shall be a redacted verison. Also, one

(1) each of past performance and pricing.

Quotes will be accepted via email.

The quote shall demonstrate an understanding of and ability to meet all of the requirements set forth in the RFQ’s performance work statement (PWS). The Quoter shall provide sufficient detail to substantiate the validity of all statements. The Quoter shall demonstrate that the quote is in compliance with the requirements, terms, and conditions of the RFQ. Comprehensive responses to the requirements of the RFQ are required to enable the Government to evaluate the Quoter's understanding of and capability to accomplish the requirements of the PWS.

General statements that the Offeror can or will comply with the requirements, that standard procedures will be used, that well known techniques will be used, or paraphrasing the solicitation’s requirements in whole or in part, will NOT constitute compliance. Failure to conform to any of the requirements of the solicitation may form the basis for rejection of the quote.

Brochuremanship is not desired. Clarity, completeness, and conciseness are essential and the overall quality of the quote will be evaluated in the context of being representative of the Offeror’s services. An Offeror’s quote is presumed to represent the best efforts to respond to the solicitation.

Since only the quote submitted in response to this solicitation will be evaluated, Offerors should make certain that their quote is complete with regard to the information provided. Data previously submitted, or presumed to be known, e.g., previous projects performed for the Government, will not be considered in the evaluation unless that information is physically contained in the quote.

Quotes shall be presented in three (3) separate volumes:

Volume I (Technical) Volume II (Past Performance) Volume III (Price and Solicitation Documents)

VOLUME I SHALL NOT CONTAIN ANY PRICING DATA. Format requirements:

8.5 x 11 inch paper Single-spaced typed lines 1 inch margins on all sides No smaller than 12 point font, Times New Roman Graphs and drawings must be clear and legible No photographs or hyperlinks are permitted

Each volume of the quote shall be clearly marked as to the volume number, the solicitation number, and the Contractor’s name. Pages shall be numbered consecutively within each volume showing volume and page. For example, page 9 of Volume I would be numbered I-9 and page 10 of Volume II would be numbered II-10.

Quoters are advised that the Government may selectively verify any information provided in the quote. Quoters are cautioned that they are responsible to ensure that material that they desire to have evaluated for a particular section is contained in that specific section.

All quotes shall include the following information in the technical volume.

Volume 1: Technical and Management Approach and Company Experience

The Quoter's technical volume submission shall include all relevant supporting information required or specified in the Solicitation. This Volume shall be limited to 10 pages, not including exhibits and attachments.
