SECTION 00120 PROPOSAL EVALUATIONS AND BASIS FOR AWARD

1. GENERAL INFORMATION

1.1. This solicitation is for a Firm Fixed Price Contract. The Government intends to award a single contract to a qualified Small Business Offeror deemed responsible in accordance with the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR), whose proposal conforms to all the RFP's requirements and is judged to represent the Best Value to the Government in accordance with the evaluation scheme set out in this solicitation.

Best Value offer will be determined on the basis of the lowest priced proposal meeting the acceptability standards for non-priced evaluation factors.

1.2. The evaluation process will be conducted in accordance with FAR 13.106(b). Offers will be evaluated using the criteria listed in “Evaluation Factors for Award.” Noncompliance with the RFP requirements may raise serious questions regarding an offeror’s technical ability, past performance and/or pricing and may be grounds to eliminate the proposal from consideration for contract award. Failure to include all information requested may adversely affect the evaluation. A proposal that merely reiterates or promises to accomplish the requirements of the RFP will be considered unacceptable. A proposal that is orderly and sufficiently documented will be easy for the Government to understand and will enable the Government to perform a thorough and fair evaluation.

1.3. The Contracting Officer will begin the evaluation process by conducting a proposal compliance review for all timely-received proposals for determination of basic proposal adequacy prior to providing the proposals to the evaluators. Failure to provide a complete proposal may result in the proposal being removed from further consideration for award.

1.4. Although the assessment of Past Performance as a specific evaluation factor is separate and distinct from the Determination of Responsibility required by FAR Part 9, Past Performance information obtained herein will be used during the Government’s responsibility determination. The Government also reserves the right to obtain additional information solely for the purpose of making a responsibility determination from all offerors after receipt of proposals.

2. EVALUATION FACTORS FOR AWARD

Evaluation Factors, the Best Value offer will be determined on the basis of the lowest priced proposal meeting the acceptability standards for non-priced evaluation factors.

Non-Priced Evaluation Factors listed below will be evaluated on an acceptable /unacceptable basis:

• Technical Solution

TECHNICAL

The Technical Solution Evaluation consists of one factor: Construction Schedule/Work Plan.

Acceptability will be based on the offeror’s demonstration of execution of the construction schedule/ Work Plan outlining completion within the desired POP. The schedule/ work Plan shall capture all SOW requirements, execution timelines, and critical path items. The

Schedule/ work plan must demonstrate an overview of how the project will be completed in accordance with the SOW and within the prescribed period of performance.

RATING DESCRIPTION

Acceptable Proposal clearly meets the minimum requirements of the solicitation Unacceptable Proposal clearly does not meet the minimum requirements of the

PAST PERFORMANCE

The Government will evaluate responses from submitted references and/or any other record available, for the quality, timeliness, and management of the offeror's past performance considering, relevancy, context, and trends on recent projects (within the last 5 years). If there is information which deems past performance as less than acceptable for ongoing projects, the offeror will either have been already afforded an opportunity to offer a rebuttal of this information or will be provided such an opportunity in order for the information to be evaluated. The government may contact an offeror for questions on past performance. In the case of an offeror without a record of relevant past performance or for whom information on past performance is not available, the offeror may not be evaluated favorably or unfavorably on past performance and their record will be considered unknown.

IAW FAR 13.106-2(b)(3)(ii), evaluation of past performance will be based on one or more of the following:

• The contracting officer’s knowledge;

• Customer surveys, and past performance questionnaire replies;

• The Government wide Past Performance Information Retrieval System (PPIRS) at www.ppirs.gov; or

• Any other reasonable basis

RELEVANT: Present/past performance effort involved similar scope and magnitude of effort and complexities this solicitation requires.
