SCHEDULE OF SUPPLIES/SERVICES

M-0001 M2.14 EVALUATION – COMMERCIAL ITEMS (AEROSPACE ENERGY) (DLA ENERGY AUG 2009)

(a) For solicitations that do not require submission of a Technical Proposal, award will be made on the basis of the total lowest evaluated price of proposals.

(b) For solicitations that require submission of a Technical Proposal, award will be made on the basis of the lowest evaluated price of proposals meeting or exceeding the specific evaluation criteria contained in the solicitation. Non-cost factors to be evaluated shall be technical capability and past performance. In accordance with FAR 15.101-2(b)(3), proposals will be evaluated for acceptability but not ranked using the non-cost/price factors.

(1) Technical capability will be measured against requirements specified in the solicitation. As such, technical capability is considered acceptable when the offeror’s proposal is in compliance with the requirements of the solicitation.

Specific criteria used to judge acceptability are as follows and apply ONLY if the applicable box is checked:

[ ] (i) Acceptability of the narrative describing how the offeror will ensure a reliable supply of on-spec product and/or services to meet the annual estimated quantities in the RFP’s Schedule.

[ ] (ii) Acceptability of the narrative describing any Contractor-furnished equipment at a location other than the Contractor’s facility (e.g., on Government property).

[ ] (iii) Acceptability of method for securing delivery container and/or cargo tank openings with indicating devices (i.e., seals) to prevent tampering and/or pilferage from the time the cargo tank is loaded until it is delivered to its destination.

[ ] (iv) Acceptability of the offeror’s description of where the product(s) will be obtained and any written supply commitments if the offeror is not the producer of the product to be delivered under the contract.

[ ] (v) This paragraph describes additional criteria used to evaluate technical capability not described in the above paragraphs, if applicable. [Buyer fill in information or indicate N/A.]

(2) Past performance shall generally include verification of performance with the offeror’s past and current customers, to include Federal, State, and local governments as well as private entities. The form entitled Contractor Performance Data Sheet, located in Section J of the solicitation, may be used to provide relevant performance history pursuant to this solicitation. In accordance with FAR 15.305(a)(2)(iv), offerors without a record of relevant past performance or for whom information on past performance is not available may not be evaluated favorably or unfavorably on past performance.

Additionally, past performance data may be obtained through the Past Performance Information Retrieval System, similar systems or other Government departments and agencies, questionnaires tailored to the circumstances of this acquisition, Defense Contract Management Agency channels, interviews with program managers and contracting officers, and other sources known to the Government (including commercial sources). Offerors will be given the opportunity to address any negative performance information resulting from the past performance assessment inquiries.

(3) An offeror whose proposal is evaluated as acceptable from both a technical capability perspective as well as for past performance will be considered technically acceptable.

(c) Regardless of whether a Technical Proposal is required or not, the following price evaluation procedure(s) apply if the applicable box is checked:

[ ] (1) For F.O.B. Origin product CLINs. For price evaluation purposes, the evaluated price of each CLIN or subCLIN for product (AA through ____) [Buyer fill in the CLIN(s)] to be delivered on an f.o.b. origin basis will be calculated by multiplying the estimated quantity by the proposed unit price of the product. To each CLIN/subCLIN, the Government will add as an “other price-related factor,” the Government’s estimated costs for transporting the product from the offeror’s proposed fill plant, production facility, and/or storage facility, as stated in the offeror’s proposal, to the individual customer locations designated in an attachment to the solicitation. The estimated number of shipments shown in the attachment will also apply. The lowest laid down price is calculated by adding the sum of the evaluated prices for each CLIN/subCLIN to the Government’s total estimated cost for transportation and the total of all “other price related factors”, if any, as described in the paragraph below. Transportation rates are derived from-- [ ] (i) For CONUS locations, the Surface Deployment and Distribution Command’s (SDDC’s) competitively awarded contracts will be used.

[ ] (ii) For OCONUS locations, the Government rates for both air and sea transportation will be taken from the DoD’s Single Mobility System (SMS) Air Cargo/PAX Cost Calculator.

[ X ] (2) For F.O.B. Destination product CLINs. For price evaluation purposes, the evaluated price of each CLIN 0001, 0002, 0003, 0004, 0005, 0009, 0010, 0014, 0018, 0022, 0023, 0027, 0031 and 0032 will be calculated by multiplying the estimated quantity by the proposed unit price of the product(s), which should include all costs associated with the offeror’s delivery of product to the location specified in the Schedule. F.o.b. destination CLINs are normally individual DLA Energy customer locations, unless otherwise specified.

[ ] (3) Non-product CLINs/subCLINs. For price evaluation purposes, the following non-product CLINS/subCLINs will be evaluated for award: [Buyer fill in the CLIN(s)] ____________________________________ .

Each non-product CLIN/subCLIN’s evaluated price will be calculated by multiplying the estimated quantity by the offered unit price. Offerors who do not propose on all non-product CLINs and subCLINs stated in the Schedule (where one award will be made), or where a group of CLINs/subCLINs will be evaluated for award, or where the Schedule contains specific customer locations to be evaluated and awarded, may not be considered for evaluation and award unless the offeror proposes prices on all applicable CLINs/subCLINs.

[X ] (4) This paragraph describes the evaluation process for product or non-product CLINs/subCLINs or additional “other price related factors” not otherwise described in any of the above paragraphs, if applicable. Only Federal helium suppliers as designated by BLM will be eligible for award of any quantities under CLINs 0001, 0002, 0003, 0004 and 0005. See Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 8.5.

CLINS have been assigned "Lot" numbers by location as indicated below:

LOT A – 0001 -0008 – Stanford, CA LOT B – 0009 – 0013 – Boise, ID LOT C – 0014 – 0017 – Memphis, TN LOT D – 0018 – 0021 – Durham, NH LOT E – 0022 – 0026 – Worcester, MA LOT F – 0027 – 0030 - Amherst, MA LOT G – 0031 – 0035 – Canyon, TX

As such, CLINs will be evaluated by LOTs per location and not be individual CLIN numbers.

Offerors must submit a quote for each CLIN in a respective LOT.

[X ] (5) The offered prices for the following CLINs/subCLINs will not be included in the evaluation for award, but will be evaluated for price reasonableness and included as a CLIN/subCLIN in each contract award: 0006-0008, 0011-0013, 0015-0017, 0019-0021, 0024-0026, 0028-0030 and 0033-0035.

[ ] (6) Lowest Total Evaluated Price for F.O.B. Origin Requirements. If Schedule B includes both f.o.b. origin product CLINs as well as non-product CLINs that are to be evaluated in accordance with this provision, the evaluated prices for all the non-product CLINs will be added to the lowest laid down price of all the product CLINs that are otherwise designated as one group, such as in a region, to determine the lowest total evaluated price. Otherwise, only the product CLINs (or those applicable to the designated group) will be added to determine the lowest total evaluated price. If no region or group is designated in the Schedule, all the evaluated prices of all the CLINs in the solicitation will be added together for determination of the lowest total evaluated price.

[ X ] (7) Lowest Total Evaluated Price for F.O.B. Destination Requirements. If Schedule B includes both f.o.b. destination product CLINs as well as non-product CLINs that are to be evaluated in accordance with this provision, the evaluated prices for all the non-product CLINs will be added to the evaluated price(s) of the applicable f.o.b. destination product CLINs to determine the lowest total evaluated price. Otherwise, only the product CLINs applicable to the group or designated customer location will be added to determine the lowest total evaluated price. Where more than one customer location is contained in the Schedule, the lowest total evaluated price shall be all product CLINs and non-product CLINS for a specific customer location, added together.

[ X ] (8) If Schedule B is for services only and as such does not include any product CLINs, the total evaluated price will be the total of the evaluated prices for all the services CLINs, as designated in paragraph (e)(3) above.

(d) If options are included, the Government will evaluate offered prices by using the same price evaluation procedures as described above, except, as follows:

I209.09, EXTENTION PROVISION (DLA ENERGY JAN 2012) grants the option to extend the resultant contract(s) on the same terms and conditions one or more times for a total of no more than six months. This option will be evaluated using one-half the annual estimate quantity for CLINS 0001, 0002, 0003, 0004, 0005, 0009, 0010, 0014, 0018, 0022, 0023, 0027, 0031 and 0032, as applicable.

The Government may determine that an offered price under an option CLIN is unacceptable if the option prices are significantly unbalanced. Evaluation of options shall not obligate the Government to exercise the option(s).

(e) BASIS FOR AWARD. For solicitations not requiring a Technical Proposal, the Contracting Officer will award to the responsible offeror with the lowest total evaluated price for the designated group of CLINs and/or customer locations, including options if contained in the solicitation. For solicitations requiring a Technical Proposal, the Contracting Officer will award to the responsible, technically acceptable offeror with the lowest total evaluated price for the designated group of CLINs and/or customer locations, including options, if contained in the solicitation. If group(s) of CLINs or individual customer locations are not otherwise designated in the Schedule, only one contract will be awarded for all the CLINs specified in the Schedule. Where the Government is soliciting for a group of CLINs, such as on a regional basis, as well as for individual customer locations on a f.o.b. destination basis, more than one contract award may be made as price evaluation and award will be made on a customer location by customer location basis.

(f) A written notice of award or acceptance of offer, mailed or otherwise furnished to the successful offeror within the time for acceptance specified in the offer, shall result in a binding contract without further action by either party.

Before the offer’s specified expiration time, the Government may accept an offer (or part of an offer), whether or not there are negotiations after its receipt, unless a written notice of withdrawal is received before award.
