EVALUATION FACTORS FOR

AWARD USING

LOWEST PRICE TECHNICALLY ACCEPTABLE

(LPTA)

The Government will award to the quoter submitting the lowest price technically acceptable quotation. In order to be considered technically acceptable, quotations must meet the following requirements:

Factors Evaluated as Go/No-Go

Factor I - Technical Capabilities

a. Contract requirements: Quotations will be evaluated on the Quoter’s ability to provide all of the contract requirements regarding Business Services, Meeting Room(s), Food and Beverages, and Audio Visual.

Quotations must address the Quoter’s ability to comply with the Americans with Disability Act (ADA) as it relates to meeting space, lodging and parking. Quotations should reflect the quality of the customer services provided, the layout design and quality of the facilities as reflected by the physical layout and atmosphere of meeting space, amenities such as free Wi-Fi in the conference space and upkeep of the facilities.

b. Location: Quotations will be evaluated on the ability of Quoter to provide a training facility/facilities located in Washington, DC. The facility’s walking distance of a Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority (WMATA) Metro station.

c. Availability of Dates: Quotations will be evaluated on the ability of the Quoter to provide the required services on the dates requested.

Factor II - Past Experience

The quoter must provide evidence that it has successfully performed a minimum of three (3) contracts for the same or similar services within the past two (2) years to include contract type, contract number, contract value, point of contact name and telephone number, and the type of service provided.

Factor III- Price Evaluation

Once the quotes have been determined to be “technically acceptable,” award will be based on lowest price.

Site Visit: The EEOC reserves the right to conduct a site visit of all quoters who are rated to be technically acceptable. The site visit will review and evaluate the same technical items identified in the Technical Capabilities Portion of the technical evaluation factors.

Notice: The Government reserves the right to make a contract award without discussion with quoters (except clarifications as described in FAR 15.306(a)). Therefore, the vendor's initial quote should contain the vendor's best terms from a price and technical standpoint. The Government reserves the right to conduct discussions, if the Contracting Officer later determines them to be necessary.
