52.212-2 EVALUATION--COMMERCIAL ITEMS (JAN 1999)

(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:

See Addendum below.

Technical Approach is significantly more important than Past Performance. Past Performance is more important than Management Approach. Technical Approach, Management Approach and Past

Performance, when combined are significantly more important than Price. See 52.212-2 Addendum below.

(b) Options. Option Prices are required. FAR 52.212-2(b) Evaluation – Commerical Items. 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).

(c) 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.

(End of provision)

52.212-2 Addendum Evaluation - Commercial Items (Jan 1999)

The Government intends to evaluate proposals and award a contract without discussions. Each Offeror’s proposal shall contain the Offeror’s best price and technical position. The Government reserves the right to conduct discussions if it is later deemed necessary. Any Offeror that is rated “Unacceptable” in any evaluation criterion may not be considered for contract award without discussions

In order to be considered responsive to this RFP, the Offeror’s proposal MUST sufficiently demonstrate that it meets all Performance Work Statement requirements. Unsupported promises to comply with the contractual requirements will not be sufficient.

The Government may award to other than the lowest-priced Offeror or to other than the Offeror with the highest technical rating if the Source Selection Authority determines that to do so would result in the best value to the Government.

The Government intends to award one Firm-Fixed-Price (FFP), Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity

(IDIQ) delivery order contract that will utilize FFP delivery orders for performance to one awardee whose overall offer represents “Best Value” to the Government. Value is considered the intersection of technical solution, Offeror competence, risk, and overall cost to the government. In making its “Trade

Off” determination, the Government will consider all non-price factors, combined, to be of significantly greater importance than evaluated price. However, the importance of price as a factor in the final determination will increase with the degree of equality in the overall technical merit of the proposals.

Evaluation Areas and Factors

General. The Government will apply the following evaluation factors and elements to identify the best value proposal. The evaluation factors represent key areas of importance to be considered in the source selection decision. The proposals will be evaluated against the Government‘s requirements using four factors. Factors will be evaluated in order of importance as listed below. Technical Approach is the most important factor.

Factor 1 – Technical Approach

Factor 2 – Past Performance Information

Factor 3 – Management Approach

Factor 4 – Price Proposal (evaluated but not rated)

Procedures. The Price Volume will be evaluated separately from the Technical Volume, but not rated.

An adjectival rating and risk assessment will be used to establish technical merit and performance risk for the Technical Approach and Management Approach. Past Performance will receive a Relevancy and a Confidence rating.

Adjectival Rating: The Source Selection Evaluation Board (SSEB) will use four (4) adjectival ratings of

Exceptional, Acceptable, Marginal, and Unacceptable for the Technical Approach and Management

Approach. The proposal rating depicts how well the Offeror’s proposal meets the evaluation standards and the solicitation requirements.

Technical Approach and Management Approach Ratings: The ratings to be used for Technical Approach and Management Approach are:

Rating Performance

Capability Strengths Weaknesses

Exceptional

The proposal exceeds solicitiation requirements and clearly demonstrates the

Offeror’s capability to deliver exceptional performance

There are numerous strengths that are of direct benefit to the Government.

Weaknesses are considered insignificant and have no apparent impact to the program.

Acceptable

The proposal is satisfactory;

the Offeror is capable of meeting solicitation requirements.

Some strengths exist that are of benefit to the

Government; the strengths clearly offset weaknesses.

A few weaknesses exist;

they are correctable with minimal Government oversight or direction.

Marginal

The proposal is minimally adequate; the Offeror is most likely able to meet solicitation requirements.

Few strengths exist that are of benefit to the

Government; the strengths do not offset the weaknesses.

Substantial weaknesses exist that may impact the program; they are correctable with some

Government oversight and direction.

Unacceptable

The proposal is highly inadequate; the Offeror cannot meet solicitation requirements.

There are no beneficial strengths.

Numerous weaknesses exist that are so significant that a proposal re-write is not feasible within a suitable timeframe.

Risk Assessment Ratings: The risk assessment ratings are:

Rating Definition

High

Offeror’s proposed approach is likely to cause significant disruption of schedule, increase in cost, or degradation of performance and will require a high level of contractor emphasis and Government monitoring to overcome difficulties.

Moderate

Offeror’s proposed approach is likely to cause a moderate disruption of schedule, increase in cost, or degradation of performance and will require a medium level of contractor emphasis and Government monitoring to overcome difficulties.

Low

Offeror’s proposed approach is likely to cause minimal or no disruption of schedule, increase in cost, or degradation of performance and will require a low level of contractor emphasis and Government monitoring to overcome difficulties.

Past Performance Information: The Government will identify and assess the relevancy and confidence associated with an Offeror’s Past Performance Information.

The past performance evaluation results is an assessment of the Government’s risk in the Offeror’s ability to fulfill the solicitation requirements while meeting schedule, budget and performance quality constraints. The past performance evaluation considers each Offeror’s demonstrated record of performance in supplying products and services that meet users’ needs. The past performance confidence assessment is assessed at an overall factor level after evaluating aspects of the Offeror’s recent past performance, focusing on performance that is relevant to the Technical factors and cost or price.

The past performance evaluation will concentrate on assessing the delivery of an Offeror’s products and/or services and be tailored to the Technical factors, cost factor and other solicitation requirements that if not successfully accomplished could result in disruption of schedule, increased cost or poor performance.

Past Performance Relevancy Rating:

Rating Definition

Very Relevant/High

Present/past performance effort involved the same scope and magnitude of effort and complexities this solicitation requires. This includes examples of integration of all products proposed for CERS DAR, Federal IA requirements, integration with legacy equipment, multi-team/multi-site employments.

Relevant/Medium Present/past performance effort involved similar scope and magnitude of effort and complexities this solicitation requires.

Not Relevant/Low Present/past performance effort involved little or none of the scope and magnitude of effort and complexities this solicitation requires.

Past Performance Confidence Rating:

Rating Definition

Substantial

Confidence

Based on the Offeror’s recent/relevant performance record, the Government has a high expectation that the Offeror will successfully perform the required effort.

Satisfactory

Confidence

Based on the Offeror’s recent/relevant performance record, the Government has a reasonable expectation that the Offeror will successfully perform the required effort.

Limited

Confidence

Based on the Offeror’s recent/relevant performance record, the Government has a low expectation that the Offeror will successfully perform the required effort.

No Confidence Based on the Offeror’s recent/relevant performance record, the Government has no expectation that the Offeror will be able to successfully perform the required effort.

Unknown

Confidence

No recent/relevant performance record is available or the Offeror’s performance record is so sparse that no meaningful confidence assessment rating can be reasonably assigned.

Source Selection Criteria – Basis for Award

Ratings: In the evaluation scheme described in this RFP, there are no sub-factors. Accordingly, ratings will be applied at the Factor Level as described below.

Factor 1 – Technical Approach

The Government will evaluate the Offeror’s Technical Approach which includes all documents submitted in accordance with Attachment 1- Instruction to Offerors to determine whether it fully addresses each of the Government’s stated PWS objectives and provides a detailed, comprehensive, well-articulated, reasonable, understandable, feasible/realistic approach that can be implemented within the stated parameters (resources and schedule) and that provides sufficient confidence that the initial design approach proposed and experience offered will meet the stated objectives.

The Government will evaluate whether the metrics proposed are acceptable, realistic, measureable, and provide an adequate qualitative or quantitative basis upon which to measure performance. The

Government will evaluate the Offeror’s proposed schedule for delivery of CERS DAR systems to installations.

Factor 2 – Past Performance

The Government will evaluate the Offeror’s examples of recent and relevant efforts similar in scope to demonstrate the Offeror’s experience and ability to install, test, operate and sustain the referenced program. The Government will evaluate the summaries of the most relevant contracts performed for

Federal, State, County, or Municipal agencies or commercial customers within the last five (5) years.

Factor 3 - Management Approach

The Offeror’s overall management concept, proposed organizational structure, and communication with the Government will be evaluated. The Offeror’s teaming and subcontractor arrangements will be evaluated. The Offeror’s organizational structure, identification of clear lines of authority, and rationale for approach to planning, controlling, and reporting contract activities will be evaluated. The Offeror's approach to efficiently and proactively managing the effort and proposed methods of providing

Government visibility into work by the Offeror and its team members (if any) will be evaluated. The

Offeror’s demonstrated understanding of the need to provide quality products and perform the mission in an integrated, effective, and efficient manner across all team members and subcontractors will be assessed. The Offeror’s approach and methods to fulfill the PWS, the activities that will be performed in the accomplishment of the PWS, and the methods and/or techniques used in planning, scheduling, processing, controlling and completing the PWS will be evaluated.

Factor 4 – Price

The price proposed by the Offeror will be evaluated, but not rated. The Contracting Officer will perform a price analysis in accordance with FAR 15.404-1(b)to determine fair and reasonable pricing. The

Contracting Officer reserves the right to reject an offer in accordance with FAR 15.404-1(g) if it is determined that the proposal lacks of balanced pricing and poses an unacceptable risk to the Government

. The proposed price to the Government must be consistent with the technical portion of the offer.

(B) The taxpayer is delinquent in making payment. A taxpayer is delinquent if the taxpayer has failed to pay the tax liability when full payment was due and required. A taxpayer is not delinquent in cases where enforced collection action is precluded.

(ii) Examples.

(A) The taxpayer has received a statutory notice of deficiency, under I.R.C. Sec. 6212, which entitles the taxpayer to seek Tax Court review of a proposed tax deficiency. This is not a delinquent tax because it is not a final tax liability.

In the course of the hearing, the taxpayer is entitled to contest the underlying tax liability because the taxpayer has had no prior opportunity to contest the liability. This is not a delinquent tax because it is not a final tax liability. Should the taxpayer seek tax court review, this will not be a final tax liability until the taxpayer has exercised all judicial appeal rights.

(C) The taxpayer has entered into an installment agreement pursuant to I.R.C. Sec. 6159. The taxpayer is making timely payments and is in full compliance with the agreement terms. The taxpayer is not delinquent because the taxpayer is not currently required to make full payment.
