INSTRUCTIONS TO OFFERORS

1. GENERAL:

a. Instructions:

1. Offerors shall submit their quotes in accordance with the following preparation instructions. Offerors are not required to submit any fill-in clauses with their quote. The Government will consider any failure on the part of an offeror to comply with these instructions to be an indication of the quality of performance it can expect during contract performance. Therefore, the Government encourages offerors to contact the contracting officer

(KO) and contract specialist in writing in order to request an explanation of any aspect of these instructions.

2. A quote should not simply rephrase or restate the Government’s requirements but rather provide convincing rationale to address how the offeror meets these requirements. Offerors shall assume that the Government has no prior knowledge of their facilities and experience and will base its evaluation on the information presented in the offeror’s quote.

3. If an offeror believes that the requirements in these instructions contain an error, omission, or are otherwise unsound, the offeror shall immediately notify the KO in writing with supporting rationale as well as the remedies the offeror is asking the KO to consider as related to the omission or error.

4. Relationship between Instructions and Evaluation: Your attention is directed to the functional relationship between INSTRUCTIONS TO OFFERORS and EVALUATION FACTORS of this solicitation.

INSTRUCTIONS TO OFFERORS provides information for the purpose of organizing the quote and is not intended to be all inclusive. EVALUATION FACTORS describes evaluation factors for award. Since the

Government evaluation of quotes will cover areas identified INSTRUCTIONS TO OFFERORS, quotes should address all such areas of evaluation.

5. ALL INQUIRIES shall be made via email and directed to Dylan Ford, contract specialist, and Gary Binder, contracting officer, at dylan.ford@navy.mil and gary.binder@navy.mil .

EVALUATION FACTORS FOR AWARD

1. GENERAL:

The Government intends to award a single, firm fixed price Indefinite Delivery definite quantity (ID) contract to the responsible offeror (as defined in FAR Part 9.104) on the basis of the lowest evaluated priced quote meeting or exceeding the acceptability standards for the below listed factors and sub-factors in accordance with the lowest price technically acceptable (LPTA) source selection process. This section contains specific evaluation factors for award of a contract pursuant to this solicitation.

Offeror quotes shall be in the format prescribed by, and shall contain a response to, each of the submission requirements identified in the INSTRUCTIONS TO OFFERORS section of this solicitation.

2. BASIS FOR AWARD AND EVALUATION FACTORS.

In selecting the best overall quote, the following factors will be considered: (1) technical capabilities, (2) past performance, and (3) price. The Offeror must be determined to have acceptable technical and past performance before further consideration will be given; that is, selection of the contractor is to be based on the establishment of minimum requirements to be evaluated on an “acceptable” or “unacceptable” basis. Quotes are evaluated for acceptability, but not ranked using the non-price factors.

To be eligible for award, Offerors quotes must be found acceptable in each of the following factors/sub factors:

Factor Sub factor Description Adjectival Rating

1 Technical Capabilities Acceptable /Unacceptable

1.1 Corporate Experience Acceptable /Unacceptable

1.2 Certifications Acceptable /Unacceptable

1.3 Facility Acceptable /Unacceptable

2 Past Performance Acceptable /Unacceptable

3 Price Quote Not Adjectivally Rated

An unacceptable rating in any non-price factor or sub-factor shall render an offeror’s quote ineligible for award. If a technical factor submittal receives an unacceptable rating, then the Government reserves the right to not evaluate the corresponding past performance or price factor.

a. Factor 1- Technical Capability.

The acceptability/non-acceptability for this factor is based on receiving an acceptable rating on all of the following sub-factors:

EVALUATION FACTORS Evaluated Sub-factor INSTRUCTIONS TO OFFERORS Submission Reference

Subfactor 1.1, Corporate Experience:

The prospective offeror must demonstrate specific experience providing marine preservation and maintenance support of the complexity similar to or exceeding the scope identified in the statement of work

(SOW) through a narrative of three (3) contracts within the last three (3) years.

Volume I

Offerors shall provide sufficient explanation that the experience provided demonstrate that the offeror has the necessary management, technical personnel and material resources available to successfully complete marine vessel preservation services.

Subfactor 1.2, Certifications:

The prospective offeror has provided current certificates identifying all personnel certified as paint inspectors in accordance with NAVSEA Basic Paint Inspector

(NBPI), NACE International Coatings Inspector or

SSPC Protective Coating Inspector programs, as required for accomplishing the requirements of the statement of work.

Volume I

Subfactor 1.3, Facility:

The offeror has identified that the facility to be used has adequate lifting and operational capacity to safely dock the vessel per the characteristics and requirements set forth in the statement of work (SOW).

The offeror has described a safe and efficient methodology of removing a vessel from a government trailer within one hour of arrival at the offeror’s facility.

Use of forklift is unacceptable.

An on-site survey conducted by the Government

Docking Observer (GDO) may be required to validate the facility’s capability.

To facilitate delivery by the Government and proper

Government oversight, the facility shall be located in the

Puget Sound, WA area of consideration. For this procurement, the Puget Sound, WA area of consideration is defined as the West Coast of the continental US, starting from Olympia, WA to the south and extending northward to Everett, WA to the North and Port Angeles, WA to the West.

Once all sub-factors are evaluated, the government shall rate the offeror’s submittal for factor 1 using Table M-1 below:

Table M-1_Technical Acceptable/Unacceptable Rating Method

Adjectival Rating Description

Acceptable Submittal meets the requirements of the solicitation.

Unacceptable Submittal does not meet the requirements of the solicitation.

b. Factor 2- Past Performance.

Past performance will be evaluated in accordance with FAR 15.305, however a comparative assessment will not be determined in accordance with FAR 15.305(a)(2)(i). The past performance evaluation is an assessment of the offeror’s probability of meeting the minimum past performance solicitation requirements based on recency, relevancy and satisfactory performance. The acceptability of the offeror’s past performance shall be evaluated.

This is done through the establishment of criteria to be evaluated on an “acceptable” or “unacceptable” basis as follows:

EVALUATION FACTORS Evaluation Criteria INSTRUCTIONS TO OFFERORS Submission Reference

Evidence of successful past performance on three (3) separate contracts actions within the last three (3) years that demonstrates performance relevant to preservation and maintenance projects similar to or exceeding in of the statement of work (SOW).

Past performance information obtained from established systems such as the Past Performance Information

Retrieval System (PPIRS), Federal Awardee

Performance and Integrity Information System

(FAPIIS), Electronic Subcontract Reporting System

(eSRS), or other databases. Past performance information may also be obtained from other sources available to the Government, such as the Defense

Contract Management Agency; and interviews with

Program Managers, Contracting Officers, Fee

Determining Officials.

Offeror’s are not required to submit any additional documentation in support of this evaluation criterion.

Once all past performance criteria are evaluated, the government shall rate the offeror’s quote for factor 2 using

Table M-2 below:

NOTE: In the case of an offeror without a record of relevant past performance or for whom information on past performance is not available or so sparse that no meaningful past performance rating can be reasonably assigned, the offeror may not be evaluated favorably or unfavorably on past performance (see FAR 15.305 (a)(2)(iv)). Therefore, the offeror shall be determined to have unknown (or “neutral”) past performance. In the context of acceptability/unacceptability, a neutral rating shall be considered “acceptable.”

Table M-2_Past Performance Acceptable/Unacceptable Rating Method

c. Factor 3- Price Reasonableness:

The Government will not evaluate price adjectivally. The Government will analyze the quoted price provided in volume II in accordance with FAR 15.404 using analysis techniques to determine fair and reasonable pricing. The

Government may use one or a combination of price analysis techniques and procedures to ensure a fair and reasonable price is received.

Award will be made on the basis of the lowest priced quote that meets the acceptability standards for all non-price factors and sub-factors. The offeror’s total quoted price shall be the total of the basic contract line item numbers

CLIN 0001 through CLIN 0024 in the solicitation. CLIN 0025 is informational only and shall not be separately priced.

If the Government determines an offeror’s estimates to be inexplicably low or otherwise not fair and reasonable, that offeror may be eliminated from the competition without further discussion.
