SECTION M - EVALUATION FACTORS FOR AWARD

EVALUATION FACTORS FOR AWARD

I. GENERAL

A. The Government intends to award a Fixed-Price contract for the completion of the USS BOXER (LHD 4) Dry-Docking Selected Restricted Availability (DSRA) to the offeror whose proposal represents the Best Value to the Government.

B. Offerors are advised that the Government intends to make award on the basis of initial proposals without conducting discussions with Offerors, but reserves the right to conduct discussions if determined by the Contracting Officer to be necessary (see paragraph (f)(4) of FAR 52.215-1). Therefore, each initial offer should contain the Offeror’s best terms from a price and technical standpoint.

C. Offerors are advised that the Government will not evaluate any proposal information not contained within the body of the proposal.

II. BASIS OF AWARD

A. The Government will select the best overall offer, based upon an assessment of non-price factors/Sub-factors and Cost/Price. A contract may be awarded to the offeror who is deemed responsible in accordance with FAR 9.104, whose proposal conforms to the RFP’s requirements (to include all stated terms, conditions, representations, certifications, and all other information required by Section L of this solicitation) and represents the best value to the Government utilizing trade-offs, in accordance with the evaluation criteria.

B. The best value basis for award will be based on the following evaluation factors:

1. Non- Price Factors

a) Factor 1: Eligibility Factor

b) Factor 2: Schedule & Resource Capacity

(1) Sub-factor A: Manpower

(2) Sub-factor B: Physical Resource Capacity

(3) Sub-factor C: Integrated Product Schedule (IPS)

c) Factor 3: Past Performance

2. Cost/Price Factor

a) Factor 4: Price

C. Ratings will be applied to each factor as follows:

a) Non-price Factor 1 in terms of acceptable or non-acceptable

b) An overall adjectival rating from section IV below for Non-Price Factor 2, as well as an adjectival rating for each Subfactor under Factor 2.

c) A performance confidence rating from section IV below for Non-Price Factor 3.

D. The Navy will first evaluate Factor 1, eligibility for acceptability. If an Offeror is found to be unacceptable for Factor 1, then the Navy reserves the right to not conduct additional evaluation. Overall, non-Price factors, when combined, are considered more important than the Price factor. Factor 2 is significantly more important than Factor 3. Under Factor 2, Sub-factors A, B and C are approximately equal in importance. This may result in an award to a higher rated, higher priced Offeror, where the decision is consistent with the evaluation factors, and the Source Selection Authority (SSA) determines that the benefits associated with award to the higher price Offeror outweigh the difference in price. The importance of price as an evaluation factor will increase as the difference in non-price factors among competing proposals decreases. The SSA will base the source selection decision on an assessment of proposals against all source selection criteria in the solicitation.

III. EVALUATION FACTOR DESCRIPTIONS

A. Factor 1 – Eligibility Factor:

The objective of this factor is to:

1. Assess whether, upon receipt of proposals, the offeror holds a Master Ship Repair

Agreement (MSRA) or has applied for and will hold by time of award, a Master Ship Repair Agreement (MSRA) or MSRA Equivalency through NAVSEA 02,

2. Assess whether the offeror has ownership or committed access to a pier capable of berthing the vessel, and has ownership or committed access to a dry-dock capable of docking the vessel, in accordance with Section L.

3. Assess if the proposed dry-dock is certified and remains certified during the required period of performance; and should the dry-dock certification lapse anytime during the proposed docking period, the offeror has adequately described a plan for recertification.

B. Factor 2 – Schedule & Resource Capacity:

Basis of Evaluation - The objective of this factor is to evaluate the offeror's response to the Section L requirements for this factor, as follows:

1. The Government will evaluate Factor 2, Sub-factor A, Manpower to:

a) Assess the extent to which the offeror’s narrative demonstrates a detailed, substantiated and complete understanding of how the offeror will provide the manpower resources to successfully complete the Availability’s requirements as proposed, accounting for the offeror’s current manpower resourcing performance. In addition, assess the extent to which the offeror’s narrative regarding utilization of overtime, hiring additional personnel and utilization of subcontractors is supported by current manning performance and narrative.

b) Assess the extent to which the Offeror's completed Manpower Plan to Actual Data Sheet (Attachment S-4) and associated CDRLs or equivalent reports correlate with the narrative in Factor 2, Sub-factor A (1).

c) Assess the extent to which the offeror’s proposed manpower curves (total) demonstrate a detailed, substantiated and complete understanding of how the offeror will provide the manpower resources to successfully complete the Availability’s requirements and all existing and proposed work. The Government will assess these curves in relation to the narrative provided in Factor 2, Sub-factor A (1). Emphasis will be placed on how the offeror plans to de-conflict anticipated manning shortfalls.

d) Assess the extent to which the offeror’s proposed manpower curves (trade) demonstrate a detailed, substantiated and complete understanding of how the offeror will provide the trade manpower resources to successfully complete the Availability’s requirements and all existing and proposed work. The Government will assess these curves in relation to the narrative provided in Factor 2, Sub-factor A (1). Emphasis will be placed on how the offeror plans to de-conflict anticipated trade manning shortfalls.

2. The Government will evaluate Factor 2, Sub-factor B, Physical Resource Capacity to:

a) Assess the extent to which the offeror’s narrative and graphical representation demonstrates that the Offeror's capability to provide the required physical resources to complete the Availability. An emphasis will be placed on how the offeror plans to de-conflict anticipated physical resource conflicts.

3. The Government will evaluate Factor 2, Sub-factor C, Integrated Product Schedule for:

a) Understanding of scope and integration of the work items in the Work Item

Specification Package (Attachment J-1)

b) Identifying the critical path and logically sequencing work items, and

c) Integrating the milestones and key events in the Execution Milestones & Key Events

(Attachment J-3) reasonably.

C. Factor 3 – Past Performance:

The Government will measure how well an Offeror has performed on recent and relevant contracts in the past as an indicator of the Offeror’s probability of meeting the solicitation requirements and an indicator of the successful performance on the current requirement.

The Government will evaluate the recency, relevancy and quality of an Offeror’s past performance to assess a performance confidence rating. The Government will utilize CPARS data (Attachment S-9) where available, and if unavailable, utilize PPQ (Attachment S-2) as provided. The Government reserves the right to evaluate other sources of information. Other sources of information for past performance may include, but are not limited to, an Offeror’s past performance information from the Past Performance Information Retrieval System

(PPIRS), the Federal Awardee Performance and Integrity Information System (FAPIIS), Electronic Subcontract Report System (eSRS), as well as any other sources reasonably available to the Government.

For large businesses, the Government will consider historical compliance with the requirements of FAR Part 52.219-9.

Assessment of past performance will be a subjective assessment based on consideration of all relevant facts and circumstances. The Government is seeking to determine whether the Offeror has consistently demonstrated on recent and relevant contracts a commitment to customer satisfaction and timely delivery of quality goods and services at fair and reasonable prices.

Offerors shall also address unfavorable reports of past performance and their response, or lack thereof, will be taken into consideration. In particular, recent and relevant contracts will be examined to ensure that corrective measures have been put in place to prevent the reoccurrence of past performance problems. Prompt actions taken to correct performance problems will be a reflection of management concern for customer satisfaction; however, such action may not mitigate all negative performance trends.

The Government’s past performance evaluation will focus on the following areas:

Cost Control Schedule Technical Performance Subcontract Management

In accordance with FAR 15.305(a) (2) (iv), an Offeror without a record of relevant past performance or for whom information on past performance is not available, will not be evaluated favorably or unfavorably on past performance. The lack of a performance record will result in a neutral performance risk assessment.

D. Factor 4 - Price

1. The Government will analyze price proposals in accordance with FAR 15.404 using the information contained in the Pricing Workbook (Attachment J-4). Although award will be made based on an offeror’s total price, a price proposal that is found unreasonable and/or unbalanced may be rejected. Reasonableness will be determined based on proposals submitted in accordance with FAR 15.404.
