For this section L.2.3 the Government will consider Affiliation to exist if associated business concerns or individuals, directly or indirectly, either controls the other or can control the other (control can exist through common ownership, common management, or a contractual relationship such as a joint venture, where members have the power to control performance of the contract); or a third-party controls or can control both.

a position of actual or perceived bias or unfair competitive advantage.

L.2.4.2 Offerors should disclose any potential OCI situations to the Contracting Officer as soon as identified including prior to proposal submission. The disclosure should include the facts and an analysis of the actual or perceived conflict and a recommended approach(s) to neutralize or mitigate the potential conflict.

Proposals that contain alternative terms and conditions may be considered as taking exception to the requirements of the solicitation. See Section M.2.

L.4 Evaluation Factors

Offeror proposals shall address the following Factors:

a. Past Performance Factor

b. Price Factor

L.4.1 Volume 1 Past Performance Factor

For the Past Performance Factor, the offeror is limited to proposing a total of up to two submissions of a Recent Contract(s) the offeror considers to have relevance to the RFP requirements in Section L.4.1.2 below. The contract must have been performed by the offeror or performed by an entity allowed by Section L.4.1.4 below, as the prime contractor. Contracts may include foreign, federal, state, local and private industry contracts. A prime contractor is the party that executes an agreement with another party to perform work. For example, if youre a subcontractor on a Government contract, you can provide the private industry contract that you have with the firm who signed the contract with the Government to demonstrate past performance as a prime contractor. The Government will not consider the past performance of individuals, key personnel, or subcontractors; only corporate past performance will be considered.

For the purpose of this Factor, a Contract is defined as a written instrument that requires the performance of a distinct effort and demonstrates the distinct effort was actually performed. Written instruments containing supplies or services that can be ordered but typically do not demonstrate actual performance, such as Indefinite Delivery Contracts (FAR 16.5), Basic Ordering Agreements (BOA), Blanket Purchase Agreements (BPA), and Federal Supply Schedules (FSS) do not meet the definition of a Contract. Written instruments considered to demonstrate actual performance may include a single task or delivery order, a single work directive, or a single definite quantity contract provided it demonstrates a distinct effort was actually performed. If a contract instrument executed under a broad ordering instrument (such as a task or delivery order, etc) also functions as a broad ordering instrument and does not require or demonstrate that a distinct effort be performed (i.e requires other written instruments to execute performance), then this contract instrument would NOT meet the definition of a Contract. An offeror may submit, or the Government may require, written instruments that enhance the Governments understanding of the distinct effort actually performed if it is not identified on the Contract itself. It is incumbent upon the offeror to demonstrate that a distinct effort was actually performed.

The burden of providing thorough and complete past performance information remains with the offeror. It is the offeror's responsibility to submit detailed and complete information so the Government may evaluate its Past Performance volume. The Government does not assume the duty to search for data to cure problems it finds in proposals. While the Government may elect to consider data obtained from internal and external sources other than the proposal, the burden to provide thorough and complete past performance information rests with the offeror. The below instructions are provided to advise offerors as to the information required by the Government to assess the contractors Recent and Relevant past performance. Since this information constitutes a basis of the Government's review, it is imperative that the offeror present its past performance in a clear and complete manner. Failure to provide the information requested under paragraph L.4.1.3 and L.4.1.4 (if applicable) below may result in an assessment that the offeror does not possess a record of

Recent and Relevant past performance.

Page Recommendation: It is recommended that the offeror submit no more than 10 pages total in response to the written narrative(s) required in Section L.4.1.3 and L.4.1.4. This page recommendation excludes i) any substantiating documents submitted in response to

Section L.4.1.3 and L.4.1.4 (Copies of requested Contract information, other requested substantiating documents in response to Sections

L.4.1.4.1 through L.4.1.4.4 when applicable), and ii) a cover page and table of contents.
