EVALUATION FACTORS FOR AWARD
1. Source Selection Process Overview. All quotes shall be subject to evaluation by a team of Government personnel. Quotes will be evaluated strictly in accordance with their written content. Subjective judgment by the government is implicit in the evaluation process.
a. The Government will first review quotes to determine whether they are complete and comply with the instructions set forth in this solicitation. The Government will eliminate all quotes that were submitted late and not subject to an applicable exception, fail to comply with all instructions, or are incomplete. A complete quote is one that includes all required information and documentation, including any applicable representations, forms, or clauses requiring information or signatures from offerors. Quotes which merely restate a requirement or state that a requirement will be met, without providing support, will be deemed incomplete and not considered.
b. Next, the Government will evaluate each remaining offeror’s Volume I Price. The
Government will eliminate any quotes that are missing the pricing information.
c. The Government will then conduct a Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) process with all remaining offerors. In using this source selection process, the Government intends to make an award based on which offeror provides the best value to the Government.
Price will be the only factor evaluated.
d. The LPTA will best achieve the objective of awarding a contract with expertise and qualities that are most important to VISN 17. The Government will make an award to the contractor that submits a quote that meets the criteria for being technically acceptable along with price considerations. The Government will strictly enforce all the quote submission requirements outlined in the solicitation. Failure to comply with these requirements will result in an Offeror's quote being rejected as being incomplete or non-conforming to solicitation requirements.
e. The Government intends to make an award without discussions, but it reserves the right to conduct discussions if doing so would be in the best interest of the Government. Initial quotes should contain the offeror’s best offer. The Government may request clarifications, as described in FAR 15.202(a)(2).
2. Evaluation Factors
a. Price: Complete Price Schedule
(1) Complete the price offer schedule in section A.5
(2) Price shall be addressed using the attached price breakdown worksheet, which is included in Attachment 4.
(3) Provide supporting documentation showing quotes/price breakdowns for both prime and subcontractors.
NOTE: Price breakdown shall be indicative of showing at least 15 percent of the price of the contract performance incurred for personnel will be spent on the concern's employees or the employees of other eligible service-disabled veteran-owned small business concerns in accordance with VAAR 852.219-73(d)(3).
a. Price: Fixed Price. The Government will evaluate offers by adding the total of all line-item prices. The Total Evaluated Price will be that sum. The Government will also evaluate the Total Evaluated Price to determine whether quotes are fair and reasonable.
X (iii) Special trade construction contractors. In the case of a contract for special trade contractors, the contractor will not pay more than 75% of the amount paid by the government to it to firms that are not certified SDVOSBs listed in the SBA certification database as set forth in 852.219–73 or certified VOSBs listed in the SBA certification database as set forth in 852.219–74. Any work that a similarly situated certified SDVOSB/VOSB subcontractor further subcontracts will count towards the 75% subcontract amount that cannot be exceeded. Price of materials are excluded and not considered to be subcontracted.
