Award Selection Process:

Award will be made in accordance with FAR Part 13 to the offeror that provides the best value to the government based on price, technical, and prior experience. This solicitation is not stating nor required to state the relative importance assigned to each evaluation factor and/or sub factor (FAR 13.106-1(a)(2)).

1. Technical Evaluation Factor 1 – TECHNICAL EVALUATIONS (Pass/Fail):

The Technical Evaluation determines if proposals meet the Technical Subfactors as prescribed below. Each Subfactor below will be rated as either “Technically Acceptable” or “Not Technically Acceptable.”

To be considered “Technically Acceptable” overall, each Subfactor must be rated “Technically Acceptable.” If any Subfactor is determined to be “Not Technically Acceptable,” the entire proposal is rated as “Not Technically Acceptable”, and an award cannot be made to that firm.

Offerors shall provide a narrative describing their proposed work plan not to exceed 10 pages as described below.

The NPS may hold clarifications concerning Technical Subfactors.

Subfactor 1 – Technical Approach:

The Contractor shall submit a detailed narrative description of the proposed methods and approaches to performing roof replacement work, as well as the Contractor’s understanding of the scope of work and capability to perform the work within the performance period. The proposed work plan should include sequencing and coordination of work, quality control reporting, scheduling, temporary protection measures, and best management practices that will be employed.

To be considered Technically Acceptable, the proposal must demonstrate a clear understanding of contract requirements and project scope and must reflect that the contractor and any identified personnel meet specific qualifications set out in the solicitation and its attachments.

Subfactor 2 – Experience:

At a minimum, the submission for each project should include a short (less than one page) description of the project, dates of performance, client’s name, and total project cost. A separate form/page shall be submitted for each individual project. The offeror shall limit submissions to no more than a total of five (5) projects. Projects shall include work of similar or greater size, scope, and complexity, completed within the past five (5) years.

Subfactor 3 – Licensure:

The Primary Contractor will provide a qualifying Fire Suppression System Worker License.

2. Price.

A price evaluation will be performed to determine the reasonableness of the proposed price. Reasonableness will be determined by considering other offered competitive prices received and comparison to the Independent Government Cost Estimate (IGCE). If multiple contract line items are included in the price schedule, prices will also be evaluated to determine whether any line items are unbalanced. The government will also evaluate whether a proposed price is unreasonably high and may also consider whether a proposed price is unreasonably low since this might indicate a lack of technical understanding on the Offeror’s part or a performance risk associated with the proposal that the Government may not be willing to accept. Whether a proposed price is unreasonably high or unreasonably low may be considered in the context of comparison to other price proposals received as well as to the IGCE or to any other information deemed useful in the decision.

(c) Respondents are cautioned to submit adequate information to enable the government to fully ascertain each respondent’s capability to perform the requirements in accordance with the requirements of the request for proposal (RFP).

(d) If a respondent believes that requirements in these instructions contain an error, omission, or are otherwise flawed, the respondent shall immediately notify the contracting officer in writing (email is the preferred method) with supporting rationale prior to the closing of this RFP.
