(b) Evaluation Factors

Factor 1 - Price:

Offeror will be evaluated on the information required to be submitted in the solicitation submittal requirements identified in the SUPPLIES/SERVICES Section, and shall provide a square footage price that details what is included and if different services/tiers are required for COVID 19 cleaning.

(ii) Basis of Evaluation:

The assessment of the Offeror’s quote will be used as a means to evaluate the best in government value proposed by the Offeror. This factor will be rated on as compared to their competition.

Factor 2- Technical/Safety:

(i) Solicitation Submittal Requirements:

The Offeror shall submit a narrative that fully describes the safety management system that will be used to oversee the safety compliance and performance of self-performed and sub-contractor performed work and the Offeror’s method for qualifying, evaluating, selecting all tiers of sub-contractors. The narrative shall fully describe the safety management system that will be used to oversee safety compliance and performance of self-performed and sub-contractor performed work. Also describe any innovative methods that the Offeror will employ to ensure and monitor safe work practices at self-performed and all subcontractor levels. Additionally, describe the methodology to execute an effective program that facilitates sound mishap prevention techniques and processes, employee reporting of unsafe conditions, unsafe activities, and near-miss mishaps. The technical approach to safety narrative must be limited to two pages.

The Offeror shall also submit the following information:

Copy of training requirements required for all personnel that perform COVID-19 cleaning services. This list must include 1910.134 Respiratory Protection, 1910.1030 Blood Borne Pathogens, and 29 CFR 1910.132 Waste Disposal training. Failure to provide this will result in an unacceptable rating.

A copy of the Safety Data Sheets for all chemicals used during COVID-19 cleaning.

The Government is seeking to determine that the Offeror has consistently demonstrated a commitment to safety and that the Offeror plans to properly manage and implement safety procedures for its self- performed work and the work of its sub-contractors. The Government will evaluate the Offeror’s overall safety management system and the

Offeror’s methodology of qualifying, evaluating, selecting and overseeing its subcontractors. The Government’s sources of information for evaluating safety will include, but are not limited to: OSHA, Contractor Performance

Assessment Reporting System (CPARS), and other related databases. While the Government may elect to consider data from other sources, the burden of providing detailed, current, accurate and complete safety information regarding these submittal requirements rests with the Offeror. The Government will evaluate the narrative to determine the degree to which subcontractor safety performance will be considered in the selection of all levels of subcontractors on the upcoming project and the specific management practices that will be in place for providing deliberate safety program management and mishap prevention support.

Technical/Safety evaluations will result in one of the following ratings:

TABLE 1 - TECHNICAL RATINGS

Rating Description

Acceptable Quote clearly meets the minimum requirements of the solicitation.

Unacceptable Quote does not clearly meet the minimum requirements of the solicitation.

Factor 3- Past Performance:

(i) Solicitation Submittal Requirements:

If a completed Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS) evaluations are available, it is recommended the contractor provide at least two in their proposal. If there is not a completed CPARS evaluation then the offeror shall submit Past Performance Questionnaires for at least two previous contracts.

If applicable, the Offeror should provide a completed Past Performance Questionnaire (PPQ) in the proposal. The government may utilize previously submitted PPQ information in the past performance evaluation. If the Offeror is unable to obtain a completed PPQ from a client for a project(s) before proposal closing date, the Offeror shall complete and submit with the proposal the first page of the PPQ, which will provide contract and client information for the respective project(s). The Government may make reasonable attempts to contact the client noted for that project(s) to obtain the PPQ information. The PPQ (Exhibit 2) will be provided upon request.

Offerors should follow-up with clients/references to help ensure timely submittal of questionnaires. If the client requests, questionnaires may be submitted directly to the Government’s point of contact.

Offerors may provide any information on problems encountered and the corrective actions taken on previous projects. Offerors may also address any adverse past performance issues. Explanations may not exceed one double-sided pages (or two single-sided pages) in total.

The Government reserves the right to contact references for verification or additional information. The

Government’s inability to contact any of the Offeror’s references or the references unwillingness to provide the information requested may affect the Government’s evaluation of this factor.

This evaluation will consider how well the Offeror’s team performed on relevant projects submitted under Factor 3 –

Past Performance and may also consider past performance on other projects currently documented in known sources.

The Government will consider how recent and relevant the information is, the source of the information, context of the data, and general trends in the Contractor’s performance. This evaluation is separate and distinct from the

Contracting Officer’s responsibility determination. The assessment of the Offeror’s team’s past performance will be used as a means of evaluating the Offeror’s team’s probability to successfully meet the requirements of the RFP.

Offerors lacking relevant past performance history will receive a NEUTRAL Confidence rating.

Past performance ratings of “Satisfactory Confidence” hold more value than a “Neutral Confidence” rating and will be considered more favorably in the evaluation of past performance.

The Government reserves the right to request that the awardee reduce its total price, or adjust CLIN prices with no change to total price, in order to reduce administrative costs and avoid unnecessary burdens for the agency pursuant to FAR 13.002.

QUESTIONS: Quoters shall submit any questions in relation to this solicitation to George DelMoral by email at george.delmoral@navy.mil. The cut-off date for questions is 12:00 pm EST on 11 March 2021.

(c) Contract Award
