Unclear quotes may not result in questions for clarifications. Quoter with an omission or unclear quote may be judged to mean the contractor does not fully understand the requirements or understand what it takes to meet the requirements, regardless of the proposed price, and will be rated Unacceptable. In that case, the quoter may be found unacceptable and ineligible for award.
The Government reserves the right to ask questions of quoter if the Contracting Officer determines them to be necessary.

This information consists of the quoter’s intended approach to executing the contract. The submission for this section shall not exceed 5 pages in length, excluding any resumes.
Equipment Plan. The proposed equipment list should only include the equipment which will be used on this contract. Include size, make, model, and ownership (owned or rented) of equipment.
Staffing Plan. The proposed staffing plan shall include both numbers of personnel proposed and position titles. Resumes for proposed key personnel, consisting of experience and other pertinent information, inclusive of superintendents, quality control inspectors, and foremen must also be submitted
Capabilities Plan. The proposed capabilities should include adequate documentation to illustrate the quoter’s capabilities to successfully complete the work identified within the solicitation. The proposed capabilities should include: (1) Adequate documentation to illustrate the Offerors capabilities to successfully complete the work identified within the solicitation; (2) The proposed capability plan should include a proposed description of how the work will be completed. This plan will include Manufacturers’ Catalog Cut Sheets (or equivalent) – submit data describing and depicting the gates and other materials in enough detail to demonstrate specification compliance for approval; (3) Estimated timeline of project completion.
The Government will evaluate the quoter’s equipment, staffing, and capabilities plans for completeness and reasonableness. Complete and reasonable plans will receive an Acceptable rating. Incomplete or unreasonable plans will receive a rating of Unacceptable. The Government will evaluate the clarity and strength of the overall organization and how well it is organized and structured to execute the entire scope of work. The Government will evaluate the capability of the firm to execute the project.

ADJECTIVE RATINGS AND DEFINITIONS TO BE USED TO BEST REFLECT
YOUR EVALUATION OF THE CONTRACTOR’S PERFORMANCE
RATING DEFINITION NOTE
(E) Exceptional Performance meets contractual requirements and exceeds many to the Government/Owner’s benefit. The contractual performance of the element or sub-element being assessed was accomplished with few minor problems for which corrective actions taken by the contractor was highly effective.
An Exceptional rating is appropriate when the Contractor successfully performed multiple significant events that were of benefit to the Government/Owner. A singular benefit, however, could be of such magnitude that it alone constitutes an Exceptional rating. Also, there should have been NO significant weaknesses identified.
(VG) Very Good Performance meets contractual requirements and exceeds some to the Government’s/Owner’s benefit. The contractual performance of the element or sub-element being assessed was accomplished with some minor problems for which corrective actions taken by the contractor were effective.
A Very Good rating is appropriate when the Contractor successfully performed a significant event that was a benefit to the Government/Owner. There should have been no significant weaknesses identified.
(S) Satisfactory Performance meets minimum contractual requirements. The contractual performance of the element or sub-element contains some minor problems for which corrective actions taken by the contractor appear or were satisfactory.
A Satisfactory rating is appropriate when there were only minor problems, or major problems that the contractor recovered from without impact to the contract. There should have been NO significant weaknesses identified. Per DOD policy, a fundamental principle of assigning ratings is that contractors will not be assessed a rating lower than Satisfactory solely for not performing beyond the requirements of the contract.
(M) Marginal Performance does not meet some contractual requirements. The contractual performance of the element or sub-element being assessed reflects a serious problem for which the contractor has not yet identified corrective actions. The contractor's proposed actions appear only marginally effective or were not fully implemented.
A Marginal is appropriate when a significant event occurred that the contractor had trouble overcoming which impacted the Government/Owner.
(U) Unsatisfactory Performance does not meet most contractual requirements and recovery is not likely in a timely manner. The contractual performance of the element or sub-element contains serious problem(s) for which the contractor's corrective actions appear or were ineffective.
An Unsatisfactory rating is appropriate when multiple significant events occurred that the contractor had trouble overcoming and which impacted the Government/Owner. A singular problem, however, could be of such serious magnitude that it alone constitutes an unsatisfactory rating.
(N) Not Applicable
No information or did not apply to your contract
Rating will be neither positive nor negative.
