BEST VALUE TRADEOFF ACQUISITION WITH ADJECTIVAL RATING PDMS

For this solicitation, PDM and Past Performance will be reviewed. Aspects of Past Performance are Recency, Relevancy and Quality. Included in the Quality sub-factor will be Quality and Delivery Performance. These sub-factors will be combined to arrive at an overall Performance Confidence Assessment. Technical merit and Past Performance are more important than price.

1. Best Value Source Selection Trade-Off Procedures Source Selection procedures will be utilized for this solicitation.

“Best Value” evaluation will be employed using the following evaluation factors: Product Demonstration Model (PDM), Past Performance and Price.

All PDMs will be evaluated using adjectival ratings in accordance with the criteria outlined in the solicitation. There will be no allowable re-submittals for PDM (Product Demonstration Model).

2. The Government will also review the second evaluation factor: Past Performance. The Government intends to award to the firm who is the best value to the Government with regards to acceptable passing PDMs, and acceptable Past Performance and Price. Passing PDMs and Past Performance when combined are more important than cost or price. As other evaluation factors become more equal, the evaluated price becomes more important. From among the firms with Passing PDMs, the Government will then select the responsible firm that complies with terms and conditions of the solicitation, and an award to that firm is considered in the best interest of the Government. If the firm fits these criteria, award will be made to them. If not, the Government will review each subsequent technically acceptable offer until one is identified that does meet the criteria, in which case award will be made to that firm.

NOTE: A rating of Un-Acceptable for PDM will result in the offer being removed from award consideration and the proposal will not be reviewed any further.

A rating of Marginal for PDM may result in the offer being removed from award consideration and the proposal will not be reviewed any further.

NOTE: The Government reserves the right to evaluate past performance up until award.

3. This solicitation will contain a Two-Phase Technical/Price Evaluation.

The Government anticipates that numerous offerors will submit proposals on this solicitation. In the event that eight or more proposals are received, the Government may use a two-phase evaluation process, which allows the Contracting Officer to conduct a preliminary evaluation of all offers, in order to determine which offers are the least likely to be candidates for further consideration. During this preliminary evaluation, all offerors Product Demonstration Models (PDMs) and proposed prices will be evaluated. Certain offerors may be excluded from further consideration at this point, if their PDM ratings and/or offered prices are not competitive when compared with PDM ratings and prices proposed by other offerors. The remaining offers will then be evaluated for the remaining technical and past performance evaluation factors. After the completion of this review, the contracting officer will determine whether to establish a competitive range and enter into negotiations, or to award without discussions.

4. The Government reserves the right to conduct negotiations with a competitive range group of offerors from among firms with most highly rated offers. If negotiations are conducted, award will be made to the offeror (based on final proposal revision) that is the best value to the Government, has a passing PDM or better, and is determined responsible and compliant with the solicitation terms and conditions based on an “integral assessment of PDM, Past Performance and Price".

If this time frame is exceeded, the contract delivery schedule will be extended by the number of additional days needed to complete the testing, provided the contractor can establish that the delay in its delivery was caused by the Government exceeding the prescribed time. The foregoing provision for the extension of delivery schedules is exclusive and the Government shall not be liable to suit for breach of contract by reason of any delay of the Government in providing test results.

Shade Evaluation. Shade Evaluation is Acceptance Testing; each lot must be submitted for evaluation. Lots shall not be shipped until shade is approved by Government. The prime contractor will require the fabric or component supplier to present to the source QAS the complete lot prepared for shipment, a set of tally sheets by shipment listing case numbers, roll numbers, and yardage of each roll and a shade swatch (header) from each roll with roll and case numbers identified on each swatch.

SHADE EVALUATION OF CONTRACTOR FURNISHED COMPONENTS

Contracts awarded under this solicitation shall require shade evaluation of Contractor furnished components in accordance with the following provisions:

(a) Swatches shall be cut by the Contractor from those pieces or rolls selected by the Government representative.

For yard goods, the dimensions of each swatch shall be 4" x 12" while for narrow loom material each swatch shall be a full width and 12" in length. The number of pieces or rolls to be sampled shall be in accordance with the following table:

(b) The swatches shall be submitted to the Government laboratory for shade evaluation. If any swatches are rejected, the end items made from the rejected component lot shall also be rejected. In these instances, the Contractor shall without cost to the Government, cut additional shade swatches from each remaining piece or roll in the rejected sample lot which was not previously sampled and submit these swatches to the Government for shade evaluation.

(c) Swatches submitted in accordance with (a) and (b) above, shall also be evaluated for uniformity of shade when so specified in section 3 of the fabric specification and when the standard sample is referenced for uniformity of shade.

Notification. The vendor shall notify the DLA-PTC representative via email between fourteen (14) calendar days and thirty (30) days from when lots are to be presented to the QAS. This allows arrangements to be made if the lab specialist requests to witness testing at the place of performance. The DLA-PTC will reply in writing by the date of lot presentation, whether witnessing, or side-by-samples, are requested. If no reply is received by the date of presentation to the QAS, the contractor may proceed.
