mailto:charles.house.3@us.af.mil

For this procurement, Best Value determination will be made based on Lowest Priced, Technically Acceptable (LPTA) quote. The Government will award a purchase order resulting from this RFQ to the responsible offeror whose quote conforming to the RFQ and SOW (including Salient Characteristics in the SOW) will be most advantageous to the Government. The following factors shall be used to evaluate quotes: Price and Technical Acceptability. Only technically acceptable quotes are eligible for award.

a. The following process will be followed:

(i) Quotes initially will be ranked based on total evaluated price. Total evaluated price will be determined by adding the unit prices of each CLIN in the Bid Schedule (above) for an overall Total Evaluated Price.

(ii) If three (3) or fewer quotes are received, the Government will evaluate all quotes for technical acceptability. If more than three (3) quotes are received, the Government will evaluate the three (3) lowest priced quotes for technical acceptability. However, the Government reserves the right to evaluate additional quotes for technical acceptability if deemed to be in the Government’s best interest. If additional quotes are evaluated for technical acceptability, they will be evaluated in the order of total evaluated price.

(iii) The technical evaluation team will evaluate the factors identified below. For the quote to be technically acceptable, all the technical factors must be rated as “Acceptable”. The failure of a quote/offer to meet any or all of the technical criteria will result in a technically unacceptable rating and be ineligible for award. The technical factors will receive one of the ratings listed below:

• Acceptable: Quote clearly meets the minimum requirements of the solicitation.

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

(iv) Technical Factors. The Government will evaluate the quotes for technical acceptability, assigning ratings as described in paragraph 4a(iii) above. The failure of a quote to meet any or all of the technical criteria will result in a technically unacceptable rating and preclude award.

• FACTOR 1 – Salient Characteristics. The Offeror’s quote shall include documentation and information clearly detailing the ability to meet all Salient Characteristics and capability to deliver/install IAW with the SOW. The brand name Girton Model 80-0 will considered Technically Acceptable; however, contractor must provide a turn-key solution that does not include altering the facility structure and solution shall be at no additional cost to the Government.

If other than the noted brand name washer (Girton Model 80-0, Cage and Rack Washer), Quoter shall provide an item meeting all Salient Characteristics identified in the Statement of Work.

For any item other than the exact brand name and part number (Girton Model 80-0), the information and details provided in quoter’s offer shall be for the item the contractor intends to deliver, transport, ship and install IAW with the SOW. Under no circumstances shall the contractor provide “depictions” or “interpretations”. When quoting an “Equal product (Equivalent item)” to substitute the brand name product, the contractor must include the following: (1) Manufacturer name, (2) Part Numbers, and (3) literature or description to support equal product substitution in your RFQ submission. Salient Characteristics for equivalent items must clearly be met to fulfill a turn-key solution to meet this requirement. At no time shall the Government make revisions/modifications or adjustments to the facility structure. All required modifications shall be made to the contractor’s item at no additional cost to the Government and shall be done IAW the SOW.

The standard has been met when: when the quoter provides/quotes the exact Brand Name item (Girton Model 80-0) or when the contractor provides equivalent items that clearly meet all listed Salient Characteristics per item as noted in the SOW. For equivalent items, the quote must provide the EXACT manufacturer, part number and specifications of each item quoted to clearly demonstrate that the equivalent item has met all Salient Characteristics. Depictions of items are not acceptable. Government must be able clearly identify that all salient characteristics have been met for an item quote that is not the brand name item, Girton Model 80-0.

(v) Price Evaluation. To determine price reasonableness, the Government will then conduct a price evaluation of the lowest priced, technically acceptable quote.

(vi) Interchanges. The Government may hold interchanges with offerors that have the highest potential to offer the best value. These issues may be technical or price, or deal with contract documentation including any other matter in the evaluation process. Resolution of minor or clerical issues would not constitute interchanges and the Government reserves the right to award without the opportunity to revise proposals.

5. Mandatory Registrations. To be eligible for award, registration with the System for Award Management (SAM) must be current. To register or update former CCR and Reps & Certs that are not current go to https://sam.gov/content/entity-information and provide mandatory information.

6. Notice to Offeror(s)/Supplier(s). Funds are not presently available for this effort. No award will be made under this solicitation until funds are available. The Government reserves the right to cancel this solicitation, either before or after the closing date. In the event the Government cancels this solicitation, the Government has no obligation to reimburse an offeror for any costs. The contractor shall not request, nor will the Government make, payments for any preliminary measurement, quotes, bids, site visit, time or proposal cost incurred.
