EVALUATION BASIS FOR AWARD

I. Basis for Contract Award

A. This is a competitive, conducted IAW Revolutionary FAR Overhaul (RFO) Part 12.203. The Government intends to award a contract to the most responsible offeror who will be the most advantageous to the government and who is a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) per Revolutionary FAR Overhaul (RFO)19.106. The anticipated award will be a commercial service Firm Fixed Price (FFP) ID/IQ contract with a five (5) year ordering period as a result of this solicitation. This may result in an award to a higher rated, higher priced offeror where the decision is consistent with the evaluation factors and the government reasonably determines that the technical superiority and/or overall business approach and/or superior past and present performance of the higher priced offeror outweighs the cost difference.

The Government will conduct a price analysis to determine whether proposed prices are fair, reasonable and balanced. The following evaluation factors will be used to evaluate the AMIC CONTRACT ADMINISTRATION SUPPORT SERVICES (ACASS) contract:

(a) FACTOR 1: Past Performance The Government will evaluate the quality of the offeror's past performance deemed relevant to the requirements of this RFP. The Government will use information submitted by the offeror and any other sources of information available to assess past performance. The Government will evaluate past performance on a Pass/Fail basis as follows:

Pass: Based on the offeror’s performance record, the Government has a reasonable expectation that the offeror will successfully perform the required effort.

Fail: Based on the offeror’s performance record, the Government does not have a reasonable expectation that the offeror will be able to successfully perform the required effort.

The offeror shall provide past performance information for at least two (2) but no more than three (3) of the most relevant contracts that demonstrate contracting as described in the PWS experience on behalf of the

(b) FACTOR 2: Price Proposal The lowest two priced proposals for Patrick Space Force Base (PSFB), FL that have passed the past performance factor, shall be evaluated for technical capability.
