1. Price Proposal: Pricing must be submitted as requested in the Schedule of Supplies/Services comprised within the solicitation document No price/cost information should be included in the technical proposal document. Offerors are required to submit completed bid schedule with detailed cost and pricing information as part of their offer.

PAGE 15 OF 48 SB134117RQ0322

2. Technical Proposal: Submit technical proposal in a format which clearly addresses the evaluation factors. Each response must address each factor in the sequence listed below and clearly identify which factor is being addressed. The offeror must identify any subcontractors proposed under this solicitation. All technical elements applicable to the utilization of subcontractors must be addressed in the technical proposal and detail provided (if applicable).

The Technical Proposal must not exceed six (6) pages in length, single sided (minimum 12-point font). Page limitation does not include any drawings, charts, etc., and excludes section dividers, table of contents, list of figures/tables, glossary of terms and cross-referencing indices (all of which are not considered content pages).

Failure to submit a complete proposal will result in the proposal being deemed technically unacceptable and therefore not eligible for award.

AWARD BASIS

The Government will award a contract resulting from this solicitation to the responsible offeror whose offer conforming to the solicitation will be most advantageous to the Government, price and other factors considered.

Technical Evaluation

Factor 1 – Technical Approach

The Government will evaluate this factor using an ADJECTIVAL RATING.

Offeror shall describe how they plan on providing the services required by the Statement of Work as well as their proposed project team structure, qualifications of each discipline lead, and proposed approach to managing the required maintenance services to achieve cost control, maintain quality, and comply with performance schedules.

Offeror must provide NIST with at least two (2) previous or on-going contracts within the last 3 years which would demonstrate the ability to service and repair the types of compressors mentioned in the Statement of Work. Each reference provided shall identify POC info. with Name, Phone Number, E-mail Address, etc.

Factor 2 – Past Performance

The Government will evaluate this factor using an ADJECTIVAL RATING.

The Government will evaluate the Offeror's past performance information and, if appropriate, its proposed subcontractors' past performance to determine its relevance to the current requirement and the extent to which it demonstrates that the Offeror has successfully completed relevant contracts in the past three (3) years. In assessing the Offeror's past performance information, Government will evaluate, as appropriate, successful performance of contract requirements, quality and timeliness of delivery of goods and services, cost management, communications between contracting parties, proactive management and customer satisfaction. Evaluation of this

PAGE 16 OF 48 SB134117RQ0322

factor will be based on information contained in the technical portion of the quotation and information provided by references. The offeror shall send out the attached Past Performance Questionnaire to their listed references and have the completed questionnaires returned directly to the Government as directed on the questionnaire.

The Government will assign a neutral rating if the Offeror has no relevant past performance information.

ADJECTIVAL RATINGS

Where applicable, the Government will evaluate the Technical Proposal using the following adjectival ratings:

Adjectival Description

Exceptional Greatly exceeds all minimum requirements of the criteria; has a high probability of success; contains no weaknesses or deficiencies.

Good

Exceeds all the minimum requirements of the criteria; has an above average probability of success; contains no significant weaknesses and only minor, correctable weaknesses exist.

Acceptable Meets all the minimum requirements of the criteria; has an average probability of success; no significant weaknesses and any deficiencies can be readily corrected.

Marginal

Fails to meet one or more of the minimum requirements of the criteria; low probability of success; major weaknesses and/or significant number of deficiencies exist.

Unacceptable Fails to meet any of the minimum requirements of the criteria; proposal needs major revisions; very low probability of success.

Relative Order of Importance of Evaluation Criteria

Relative Order of

Importance Factor

1 Factor 1: Technical Approach 2 Factor 2: Past Performance

Government will evaluate the offerors proposals to determine their capability of performing the task. Government will evaluate Factors 1 and 2 based on the adjectival ratings listed above and an emphasis will be placed on the relative importance of each factor as listed above. Factor 1 is

PAGE 17 OF 48 SB134117RQ0322

more important than Factor 2. Factors 1 and 2, when combined are more important than price.

The Government intends to evaluate proposals and award a contract without discussions (except clarifications as described in FAR 15.306(a)). Therefore, the offeror’s initial proposal should contain the offeror’s best terms from a price and technical standpoint. Offerors are cautioned to submit sufficient information and in the format specified in the proposal instructions.

Communication conducted to resolve minor or clerical errors would not constitute discussions.

Price Evaluation

Offerors shall propose suggested maintenance technician labor categories used and their rates under the CLINs for Over and Above Normal Maintenance and Repair and Emergency Repair Services. Along with each suggested labor category, offerors shall provide brief description of the services they will provide as well as their qualifications for the job.

Sample Labor Categories:

Labor Category Hourly Rate General Maintenance and Repair Worker $XX.XX Industrial Machinery Mechanic $XX.XX Machinery Maintenance Worker $XX.XX Millwright $XX.XX

The price evaluation will determine whether the proposed prices are realistic, complete, and reasonable in relation to the solicitation requirements. Proposed prices must be entirely compatible with the technical proposal.

Options. The Government will evaluate offers for award purposes by adding the total price for all options to the total price for the basic requirement. The Government may determine that an offer is unacceptable if the option prices are significantly unbalanced. Evaluation of options shall not obligate the Government to exercise the option(s). This requirement is for a one (1) year base period with four (4) one (1) year option periods.

TECHNICAL QUESTIONS

Offerors must submit all technical questions regarding this solicitation to the Contract Specialist Gina Lee in writing at gina.lee@nist.gov on or before May 24, 2017 at 4:00PM EST, no questions will be accepted after this date. Please address your subject line as follows: RFI for Maintenance Services for Air Compressors & Dryers. Telephonic (verbal) questions Will Not

PAGE 18 OF 48 SB134117RQ0322

be addressed. All responses to questions, which may affect offers, will be incorporated into a written amendment to the Request for Proposal and will be posted to fedbizopps.gov.
