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 both the USS CHOSIN (CG 65) and USS CAPE ST GEORGE (CG 71) Modernization Period (MODPRD) 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/subfactors 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
(2) Subfactor A: Manpower
(3) Subfactor B: Physical Resource Capacity
(4) Subfactor C: Integrated Product Schedule (IPS)
2. Cost/Price Factor
a) Factor 3: Price
C. A single overall rating will be applied to each factor as follows:
a) Non-price Factor 1 in terms of acceptable or non-acceptable
b) Non-Price Factor 2 in accordance with the adjectival ratings discussed in Section IV below.
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. Factor 2 is approximately equal in importance to Factor 3. Under Factor 2, Subfactors A, B and C are approximately equal in importance. In this connection, overall technical merit; however, the importance of price as an evaluation factor will increase as the difference in overall technical merit (Factor 2, Schedule & Resource Capacity) among competing proposals decreases. 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 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, or has applied for and will hold by time of award, a Master Ship Repair Agreement (MSRA) or MSRA Equivalency through NAVSEA 02, 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.
2. Assess if the proposed dry-dock is certified and will remain 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, Subfactor 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 each 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, Subfactor 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 each Availability’s requirements and all existing and proposed work. The Government will assess these curves in relation to the narrative provided in Factor 2, Subfactor A (1).
Emphasis will be placed on how the offeror plans to deconflict 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 each Availability’s requirements and all existing and proposed work. The Government will assess these curves in relation to the narrative provided in Factor 2, Subfactor A (1). Emphasis will be placed on how the offeror plans to deconflict anticipated trade manning shortfalls.
2. The Government will evaluate Factor 2, Subfactor 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 Availabilities. An emphasis will be placed on how the offeror plans to deconflict anticipated physical resource conflicts.
3. The Government will evaluate Factor 2, Subfactor C, Integrated Product Schedule for:
a) Understanding of scope and integration of the work items in the Work Item Specification Package
(Attachment J-1 and Attachment J-11)
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 and Attachment J-13) reasonably.
C. Factor 3 - Price
1. The Government will analyze price proposals in accordance with FAR 15.404 using the information contained in the Pricing Workbooks (Attachment J-4 and Attachment J-14). 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. Unbalanced pricing exists when, despite an acceptable total evaluated price, the price of one or more contract line items is significantly overstated or understated as indicated by the application of cost or price analysis techniques. The Government may reject an offer if the Contracting Officer determines the lack of balance poses an unacceptable risk to the Government. The Government will review the offeror’s CLIN and Work Item prices for the availabilities to identify any significant disparities that may indicate a lack of understanding of contract requirements.
2. Total evaluated price for the availabilities shall be calculated by adding:
a) The price of the basic contract line item numbers (CLIN) (this amount shall match the total price of all work items),
b) The price of all option CLINs,
c) The price of all Growth Reservation CLINS (Base and Option),
d) The price of the Extension Day Rates and Fully Burdened Ship Repair Labor Rates & Material Burden
Rates for New Work
e) If applicable, the Value Adjusted Total Evaluated Price Schedule Acceleration adjustments, and
f) As applicable, the value of the inter-port differentials (as identified in Section L of this solicitation)
3. Evaluated price for Growth Reservation CLINs, Extension day price, Fully Burdened Ship Repair Labor
Rates & Material Burden Rates, and New Work shall be calculated in the following manner:
a) Growth Reservation CLINs (Base and Option)
(1) Multiply the proposed fully burdened ship repair labor rate by the number of hours associated with the specific Growth Reservation CLIN to yield the labor hour price for that CLIN.
(2) Multiply the material burden rate proposed by the dollar value of material associated with the specific Growth Reservation CLIN to yield the burdened material price for that CLIN.
(3) Add the sum of labor hour and material dollar price to find the total price for each Growth
Reservation CLIN.
b) Extension Day Price
(1) Multiply the proposed daily rate by the number of days associated with that rate (for each extension type) to yield the evaluated price for that daily extension type.
c) New Work Price
(1) Multiply the proposed fully burdened ship repair labor rate by the number of hours associated with the specific New Work labor hours to yield the total labor price for New Work.
(2) Multiply the material burden rate proposed by the dollar value of material dollars associated with
New Work to yield the burdened material price for New Work.
(3) Add the sum of labor hour and material dollar price to calculate New Work Price.
4. Offerors are advised that the number of Extension days as well as the number of labor hours and the material dollar value used to calculate the Extension Day Price and the New Work Price are for evaluation purposes only.
5. Subcontracting Plan, For large businesses only: Assess the plan for:
a) Compliance with FAR clause 19.704; subcontracting goals identified in Section L, V.A.4.b; and FAR 52.219-9 to include all subparagraphs in FAR 52.219-9(d).
b) Adequate rationale for any proposed goals that are lower than the goals identified in Section L, V A.4.b.
6. Value Adjusted Total Evaluated Price (VATEP) Schedule Acceleration (USS CHOSIN CG 65 and USS CAPE ST GEORGE CG 71 MODPRDs)
a) VATEP will be used to reduce the offerors proposed price to determine the Total Evaluated Price
(TEP). Any adjustment will be incorporated in the resultant contract via Section F and the applicable Milestones and Key Events, (Attachment J-3 and Attachment J-13).
7. Inter-port Differential
a) Each inter-port differential, applicable to the USS CHOSIN CG 65 and USS CAPE ST GEORGE CG
71, must be included in all offers and is calculated using foreseeable costs for fuel, towing and pilot charges, and travel to the contractor’s facility by applicable Government personnel. The IPD charts in Section L provide the values to be included in all offerors’ price proposals to determine the offeror’s total evaluated price. Additionally, the Navy has included an Inter-port Differential Reduction for “Days Completed Early.”
IV. EVALUATION FACTOR RATINGS
The ratings will be based on what is contained in or referenced in the proposal, not on information obtained from other sources. The ratings are set as follows:
A. Factor 1
1. For Factor 1, the rating reflects whether the information submitted in response to Factor 1 meets or does not meet the minimum requirements through an assessment of the proposal. The evaluation will identify any deficiencies in offeror’s proposals. The ratings for Factor 1 are as follows:
Rating Description
Acceptable Proposal clearly meets the minimum requirements of the solicitation.
Unacceptable Proposal does not clearly meet the minimum requirements of the solicitation.
B. Factor 2
1. For Factor 2, the Offeror’s technical (non-price) proposal shall be evaluated using the adjectival ratings defined as follows:
Rating Description
Outstanding Proposal indicates an exceptional approach and understanding of the requirements and contains multiple strengths, and risk of unsuccessful performance is low.
Good Proposal indicates a thorough approach and understanding of the requirements and contains at least one strength, and risk of unsuccessful performance is low to moderate.
Acceptable Proposal meets requirements and indicates an adequate approach and understanding of the requirements, and risk of unsuccessful performance is no worse than moderate.
Marginal Proposal has not demonstrated an adequate approach and understanding of the requirements, and/or risk of unsuccessful performance is high.
Unacceptable Proposal does not meet requirements of the solicitation, and thus, contains one or more deficiencies, and/or risk of unsuccessful performance is unacceptable. Proposal is unawardable.
C. Definitions:
1. Best Value means the expected outcome of an acquisition that, in the Government’s estimation, provides the greatest overall benefit in response to the requirement. See FAR 2.101.
2. Competitive Range - See FAR 15.306(c).
3. Discussions are exchanges (i.e., negotiations) in a competitive environment that are undertaken with the intent of allowing the offeror to revise its proposal. Discussions take place after establishment of the competitive range. See FAR 15.306(d).
4. Strength is an aspect of an offeror's proposal that has merit or exceeds specified performance or capability requirements in a way that will be advantageous to the Government during contract performance.
5. Weakness means a flaw in the proposal that increases the risk of unsuccessful contract performance. See
FAR 15.001.
6. Significant Weakness means a flaw that appreciably increases the risk of unsuccessful contract performance. See FAR 15.001.
7. Deficiency is a material failure of a proposal to meet a Government requirement or a combination of significant weaknesses in a proposal that increases the risk of unsuccessful contract performance to an unacceptable level. See FAR 15.001.
8. Risk, as it pertains to source selection, is the potential for unsuccessful contract performance. The consideration of risk assesses the degree to which an offeror’s proposed approach to achieving the technical factor or Subfactor may involve risk of disruption of schedule, increased cost or degradation of performance, the need for increased Government oversight, and the likelihood of unsuccessful contract performance.
9. Clarifications are limited exchanges, between the Government and offerors that may occur when award without discussions is contemplated.
