Attachment 1: Past Performance Questionnaire

Basis of Evaluation-Commercial Products and Commercial Services per FAR Subpart 13.106

The Government intends to award a firm-fixed-price contract resulting from this solicitation to the responsible Quoter whose quote conforming to the solicitation will be the most advantageous to the government, price and other factors considered. Initially the Government will evaluate all quotes for technical capability. All quotes rated technically unacceptable shall be ineligible for award and removed from any further consideration. The Government will then evaluate all technically acceptable quotes for past performance and price, and assign appropriate adjectival ratings for past performance. The Government will then conduct a trade-off between past performance and price where past performance is more important than price.

Each quote shall be in the form prescribed by, and shall contain a response to, each of the areas identified in the solicitation provision entitled “FAR provision 52.212-1 Addendum, Instructions to Offeror’s- Commercial Products and Commercial Services.”.

The type of source selection utilized in this procurement is the Best Value Trade-Off IAW Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Part 12, Acquisition of Commercial Products and Commercial Services, and SubPart 13.5 Simplified Procedures for Certain Commercial Products and Commercial Services. The Government considers it to be in its best interest to allow consideration of award to other than the lowest priced quote.

The Government reserves the right to make award solely on initial quote received.

Note: Past performance is more important than price; however, price has the potential to become more significant during the evaluation process. The degree of importance of price will increase with the degree of equality of the quotes in relation to the other factors on which selection is to be based.

Price: The Government will evaluate price in accordance with FAR Subpart 13.106, 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 is solely within the discretion of the Contracting Officer.

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

Note: Quoters that do not quote all items in accordance with Volume I (Price) or which the quote only contains partial CLIN pricing will be ineligible for award. Failure to furnish the price in accordance with the instructions above shall render the quote unacceptable and will not be considered for award.

Technical Capability: The technical rating reflects the degree to which the quoted approach meets or does not meet the minimum performance or capability requirements. For a quote to be found technically acceptable, the quote must clearly meet the minimum requirements of the solicitation.

Failure to provide the following will result in an unacceptable rating:

N6883625Q0006

1. A plan showin ghow the delivery requirements of Section 3.2 of the Description of Requirements (DOR) will be met.

2. Statement certifying the hot mixed asphalt meets the minimum requirements IAW Section 2.0 of the DOR.

3. Provide verification the Contractor is located no further than 25 miles from the base point of entry, as specified in DOR Section 3.0.

a. If subcontracting to another company, provide the name, location, and a letter from the subcontractor confirming location and participation.

Acceptable (A) The quote meets requirements and indicates an adequate approach and understanding of the requirements, and risk of unsuccessful performance is low.

Unacceptable (U) The quote does not meet requirements of the solicitation and/or risk of unsuccessful performance is unacceptable. Quote is unawardable.

Past Performance - The past performance evaluation results in an assessment of the Quoters probability of meeting the solicitation requirements. The past performance evaluation considers each Quoters demonstrated recent and relevant record of performance in supplying services that meet the contract’s requirements as described in the Addendum to FAR 52.212-1. 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. Submitted Past Performance project relevancy will be rated as either “relevant” or “not relevant”. Submitted CPARS or PPQ recent information that is older than 3 years as of the closing date of this request for quote shall be rated not relevant and will not be deemed recent.

Rating Definition Relevant Present/past performance effort involved similar size, scope complexities this solicitation requires.

Not Relevant Present/past performance effort involved little or none of the size, scope 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 Quoters overall record of recency, relevancy and quality of performance and will be rated as stated below.

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 Quoters 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 Quoter’s 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.

NOTICE OF AWARD

To be eligible for award of a contract hereunder, the Quoter must be determined by the Contracting Officer to be a responsible prospective Contractor in accordance with FAR 9.1.

A written notice of award or acceptance of a quote mailed or otherwise furnished to the successful Quoter within the time for acceptance specified in the quote, shall result in a binding contract without further action by either party.

Before the quote’s specified expiration time, the Government may accept a quote, whether or not there are negotiations after its receipt, unless a written notice of withdrawal is received before award.
