(End of provision)

Addendum:

Evaluation Factors:

Factor 1: Technical Capability

Technical Capability will be evaluated by how well the proposed products or services meet the Government objectives. The adjustable ratings to be used for technical evaluation are listed in the table below:

Table 1. Technical Approach Factor Ratings Rating Description

Outstanding Quote exceeds requirements and indicates an exceptional approach and understanding of the requirements.

Strengths significantly outweigh any weaknesses.

Good Quote meets requirements and indicates a thorough approach and understanding of the requirements.

Quote contains strengths which outweigh any weaknesses.

Acceptable Quote meets requirements and indicates an adequate approach and understanding of the requirements.

Strengths and weaknesses are offsetting or will have little or no impact on contract performance.

Marginal Quote does not clearly meet requirements and has not demonstrated an adequate approach and understanding of the requirements. The quote contains significant weaknesses which are not offset by strengths.

Unacceptable Quote fails to meet requirements and contains multiple significant weaknesses, and/or multiple deficiencies.

Quotes with unacceptable ratings are not eligible for contract award.

Factor 2: Past Performance

Past performance will be evaluated for recency, relevance, and quality based on the information received in the quote, Performance Information Retrieval System (PPIRS), Contract

Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS) reports, the past and present efforts provided by the offeror on the Past Performance List of References PPQs, and/or data independently obtained from other government and commercial sources in order to establish a single performance confidence assessment rating as follows:

Table 1. Past Performance Relevancy Ratings Rating Definition Relevant Present/past performance effort involved similar scope and magnitude of effort as this solicitation.

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

Relevant past performance is defined as projects that demonstrate a record of providing services similar in scope and magnitude to those required by the SOO (Attachment 1). Performance that does not meet the definition of relevant will not be evaluated for quality of performance.

Table 2. Past Performance Quality Ratings Table 3. Past Performance Factor Confidence Assessment

Rating Description

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

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

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

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

Unsatisfactory 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.

Neutral 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.

Quality Performance efforts that qualify as recent and relevant will then be evaluated for quality of performance. Each evaluated effort will receive one of the following performance ratings:

Exceptional, Very Good, Satisfactory, Marginal, Unsatisfactory, or N/A.

In establishing the Past Performance Assessment rating, greater consideration may be given to information on those contracts deemed most relevant to the effort described in this RFQ. The purpose of the past performance evaluation is to allow the Government to assess the offeror’s ability to perform the effort described in this RFQ based on the offeror’s demonstrated present and past performance/experience. In the case of an offeror without a record of relevant past performance or for whom information on past performance is not available, the offeror will not be evaluated favorably or unfavorably on past performance.
