EVALUATION FACTORS FOR AWARD

In accordance with FAR 13.106-2, the Government will award a contract resulting from this solicitation to the responsible quoter whose quote, conforming to the solicitation, will be most advantageous to the Government, price and other factors considered. The evaluation factors are: 1) Technical Capability; 2) Past Performance; 3) Price.

Technical Capability, when combined with Past Performance, is approximately equal to Price, for evaluation purposes. The Government reserves the right to make award solely on initial offer received.

EVALUATION PROCESS

Technical Capability will be evaluated and appropriate adjectival ratings will be assessed for all quoters.

Once all quotes have been technically evaluated, a past performance evaluation will be performed on all technically “acceptable” quotes. Quotes deemed technically “unacceptable” will not be evaluated for past performance nor will be considered for award.

Once all technically “acceptable” quotes have been evaluated for past performance, price evaluation will be performed in accordance with FACTOR 3: PRICE.

Once evaluations are complete, the Contracting Officer shall make an integrated assessment best-value trade-off award decision.

EVALUATION FACTORS

FACTOR 1 - TECHNICAL CAPABILITY: The technical rating reflects the degree to which the proposed approach meets or does not meet the minimum performance or capability requirements. For a quote to be found technically acceptable, the quoter must clearly meet the minimum requirements of the solicitation.

Adjectival Rating Definition Acceptable (A) The technical capability meets the governments’ requirements and indicates an adequate understanding of the requirements, and risk of unsuccessful performance is low.

Unacceptable (U) The technical capability does not meet requirements of the solicitation and/or risk of unsuccessful performance is unacceptable. Quote is un-awardable.

Note: If the quoter is found to be “Unacceptable”, then the quoter will be removed from further consideration of the award.

FACTOR 2 – PAST PERFORMANCE: The Government will evaluate a quoter’s past performance by utilizing assessments from the Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS), PPQ, and/or any other past performance information available. The past performance evaluation will result in an assessment of the quoter’s probability of meeting the solicitation requirements. The past performance evaluation considers each quoter’s demonstrated recent and relevant record of performance in supplying services that meet the task order’s requirements. The recency and relevance of the information, source of the information, context of the data, and general trends in Contractor’s performance shall be considered. These are combined to establish one performance confidence assessment rating for each quoter. This evaluation is separate and distinct from the Contracting Officer’s responsibility determination.

Relevancy and for the purpose of this evaluation is described as past or current contracts (including Federal, State, and local government and private) with at least one year of evaluated performance completed. Past Performance relevancy will be rated as either “relevant” or “not relevant”.

Rating Definition Relevant Present/past performance effort involved similar scope and magnitude of effort and complexities this solicitation requires.

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

A review of all past performance, general trends, and usefulness of the information will be incorporated into an overall performance confidence assessment rating. The past performance confidence assessment rating is based on the quoter overall record of recency, relevancy and quality of performance and will be rated as stated below.

Performance Confidence Assessment

Rating Description Substantial Confidence Based on the quoters recent/relevant performance record, the Government has a high expectation that the quoter will successfully perform the required effort.

Satisfactory Confidence Based on the quoters recent/relevant performance record, the Government has a reasonable expectation that the quoter will successfully perform the required effort.

Neutral Confidence No recent/relevant performance record is available or the quoters performance record is so sparse that no meaningful confidence assessment rating can be reasonably assigned. The quoter may not be evaluated favorably or unfavorably on the factor of past performance.

Limited Confidence Based on the quoter recent/relevant performance record, the Government has a low expectation that the quoter will successfully perform the required effort.

No Confidence Based on the quoters recent/relevant performance record, the Government has no expectation that the quoter will be able to successfully perform the required effort.

In the case of quoters for which there is no information on past contract performance or where past contract performance is not available, the quoters may not be evaluated favorably or unfavorably on the factor of past contract performance. In this case, the quoters past performance is unknown and assigned a confidence rating of “neutral.” Past performance ratings of “Substantial Confidence and “Satisfactory Confidence” hold more value than a “Neutral Confidence” rating and will be considered more favorably in the evaluation of past performance.

FACTOR 3 – PRICE: The Government will evaluate price in accordance with FAR 13.106-3(a), Award and Documentation. The Government may evaluate any and all information submitted by the quoter to support the reasonableness of the prices quoted. The method of evaluation used by the Contracting Officer is solely within the discretion of the Contracting Officer.

Price will be evaluated by multiplying the estimated quantities provided to the Government by the quoted unit price for each line item provided by the quoter and then adding the totals together thereby identifying the quoter’s total estimated price for each line item.

All options, including option FAR 52.217-8, Option to Extend Services, will be evaluated pursuant to solicitation provision FAR 52.217-5, Evaluation of Options.

For award purposes, the Government will evaluate quotes based on total price. Total price consists of the basic requirements and any option(s) identified. Evaluation of the option(s) shall not obligate the Government to exercise the option.

Note: Quotes that do not offer all items (including options) or which offer only partial CLIN pricing will be considered non-responsive. Failure to furnish the price quote IAW the instructions above shall render the quote unacceptable.

ATTACHMENTS: The following documents are provided as attachments and are considered part of this solicitation:

Attachment 1: Past Performance Reference Questionnaire Attachment 2: Wage Determination

BASIS OF AWARD: NAVSUP FLC Jacksonville intends to award a single Firm Fixed Price Requirements Contract resulting from this solicitation to responsible Quoter(s) whose quote(s) meets the requirements of the Performance Work Statement (PWS) and conforming to the solicitation will be most advantageous to the Government.
