UCF Section L - SOCIOECONOMIC PROPOSAL (NOVEMBER 2016) In addition to, and separate from, any subcontracting plan required by the clause 52.219-9, provide a description of the current and future efforts your company will make to assure that small, small disadvantaged, service-disabled veteran-owned, HUBZone, and women-owned small business concerns will have equal opportunity to compete for subcontracts under any resulting contract. Include the extent of participation from any historically black colleges or universities and minority institutions in the performance of the contract. Describe your current and planned proposed range of services, supplies, and any other support that will be provided to you by these businesses.

UCF SECTION M - Evaluation of Offers for Indefinite Delivery Type Solicitations (JULY 2017)

(a) Offers will be evaluated on the basis of the estimated annual quantity. Unless (b) is checked below, if quantity increments are offered with various prices, the highest price offered will be used for evaluation. If line items for both DLA direct and customer direct are included in the schedule, offers will be evaluated based on the total extended price for the DLA direct and customer direct line items.

(b) [X] If checked, and subject to the terms and conditions of the solicitation relating to the evaluation of offers, the following procedures will be followed:

1) When offers are requested on a quantity increment basis, each contract line-item (CLIN) will be evaluated for price by:

[ ] applying a weighted factor of 18% to the first quantity increment, 36% to the second increment, and 46% to the third increment to arrive at an average weighted unit price.

[ ] applying a weighted factor of 5% to the first quantity increment, 65% to the second increment, 25% to the third increment, and 5% to the fourth increment to arrive at an average weighted unit price.

This average weighted unit price will be multiplied by the estimated annual quantity that may be procured during the contract period to arrive at a total annual evaluated price for each CLIN. If the solicitation provides for separately priced option periods, average weighted prices will be calculated as described above in (1) for each option period and then added to the base contract period total to determine the total estimated price of that line item for the evaluation.

2) [X] When quantity increment prices are not requested, offers for each CLIN will be evaluated by multiplying the unit price by the estimated quantity that may be procured during the contract period to arrive at total price for each CLIN.

Part 12 Clauses (CONTINUED)

3) Prices offered must be unit prices only which are clearly stated, and which require no further interpretation by the Government to determine the actual offered price. Prices must not be stated as part of a pricing formula or as charges per lot. Unit prices offered must include costs of compliance with all solicitation requirements, with the exception of additive CLINs. For each item of supply for which a price is offered, prices must be offered for each quantity increment and year.

Failure to submit proposed prices in accordance with these instructions may result in rejection of the offer.

4) In the event first article testing and/or technical data are required for any or all of the CLINS, the cost of such testing and data will be added to the appropriate CLIN or prorated based on the ratio of the estimated quantity for each CLIN to the total estimated quantity of the various CLINs covering the same item or national stock number (NSN). In the event an offeror is low only on one CLIN (where there are several CLINs for the same item) (NSN), the cost of testing and data pertaining to that CLIN will be added for evaluation purposes.

5) [ ] If checked, when free on board (FOB) Origin offers are authorized, transportation costs will be considered in evaluation and will be based on the best estimated quantity of each CLIN as specified elsewhere in this solicitation.

Carload or truckload rates will be used to evaluate the cost of transportation for each CLIN unless the best estimated quantity would not constitute a carload or truckload. In such case, less than carload (LCL) or less than truckload (LTL) rates will be used for evaluation purposes.

UCF Section M - EVALUATION FACTORS FOR AWARD (MAR 2019)

a) General Basis for Award: Award will be made to the offeror or offerors whose offer(s) conform to the solicitation requirements and represents the best value to the Government. Unless otherwise indicated at time of solicitation, the Government anticipates making a single award. The following evaluation factors will be considered in the evaluation of proposals received under this solicitation with their assigned ranking in descending order of importance:

[X] - Price [X] - Past Performance [X] - Proposed Delivery [X] - Surge & Sustainment [X] - Other: Small Business Participation

All factors other than price listed above are, when combined, are approximately equal to price.

b) PRICE: The offered price, as adjusted by price related factors (such as the Buy American statute or transportation costs); will be evaluated with the other evaluation factors listed above to determine the proposal which represents the best value to the Government. The Government will also evaluate the reasonableness of the offered price.

c) PAST PERFORMANCE: See `DLAD Procurement Note - L08 Use of Supplier Performance Risk System (SPRS) in Past Performance Evaluations' for past performance information. In addition to SPRS, evaluation of past performance may take into account any other relevant information available to the Government.

d) PROPOSED DELIVERY: Offerors will be evaluated based on their offered delivery compared to the Government's requested delivery. Preference may be given for offered deliveries that are shorter than the requested delivery. The Government may elect to consider for award only those offers that comply with the requested delivery schedule but reserves the right to consider offered delivery times that exceed the number of delivery days requested by the Government. Offered deliveries that exceed the requested delivery may be evaluated less favorable than those meeting or offering shorter than the Government's requested delivery.

e) SURGE & SUSTAINMENT: The Government will evaluate the offeror's ability to meet the surge and sustainment requirements identified in this solicitation in determining the offer that represents the best value to the Government. This requirement is further defined in DLAD Procurement Note - M07 Surge and Sustainment Evaluation.

f) SMALL BUSINESS PARTICIPATION: The Government will evaluate in accordance with FAR 15.304(c), all offerors proposed extent of Small Business Participation as outlined and referenced in attachment #4.
