Offerors shall assume that the government has no prior knowledge of their experience and will base its evaluation solely on the information presented in the offeror's quotation.

Para (o) Protests received at a level higher than the contracting officer will be referred to the contracting officer. Protestors may request a review by the contracting officer or an independent review at a level higher than the contracting officer. Requests for appeals or independent review will be addressed to the contracting officer for referral to the review authority. Questions on this process will be referred to the cognizant contracting officer identified in the solicitation.

Para (p) The non-FAR Part 12 discretionary FAR and DFARS clauses included herein are incorporated into this contract either by reference or in full text. If incorporated by reference, see clause 52.252-2 herein for locations where full text can be found.

PART III: PAST PERFORMANCE. Offeror is required to submit information on a single page, identifying federal, state, and local government and private contracts performed within the past three years from the date this solicitation is issued, which are similar in scope, type of work, and complexity to the effort described in this solicitation.

Evaluation-Commercial Products and Commercial Services (Feb 2026) (Deviation 2026-O0038)

(a) Evaluation factors. The Government will award a contract resulting from this solicitation to the responsible Offeror whose offer conforming to the solicitation will be most advantageous to the Government, price and other factors considered. The following factors will be used to evaluate offers:

[Insert evaluation factors in the relative order of importance. For requests for proposals, state:

Evaluation factors other than price when combined are [significantly more important than price /approximately equal to price/significantly less important] than price. For invitations for bids, list only price and price-related factors.]

Technicial

Price

Past Performance

(b) Options (if applicable). The Government will evaluate offers for award purposes by adding the total price for all options to the total price for the basic requirement. The Government may determine that an offer is unacceptable if the option prices are significantly unbalanced. The evaluation of options does not obligate the Government to exercise the option(s).

(c) Notice of award. A written notice of award or acceptance of an offer 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.

Addendum to Evaluation - Commercial Product and Commercial Services

Paragraph (a) is hereby supplemented with the following:

(a). The total evaluated price must be reasonable, and any additional expense must be justified by a corresponding value for technical merit, or an expectation of greater quality of performance.

(b). Contractors may not qualify if any of the following are not met:

1. Proposal does not reasonably address the requirements in the request for proposal (RFP).

2. Proposal includes major deficiencies or omissions which discussions could not be expected to cure without a major revision or a new proposal.

3. Proposal is so technically inferior or so out of line in price as compared to other proposals as to preclude it from having a reasonable chance for award.

4. An unrealistically low price may indicate lack of sound management judgment and lack of understanding of the requirement for the geographic area of service, or unbalanced pricing of line items, as proposed initially or subsequently, may be grounds for eliminating a proposal either on the basis that the offeror does not understand the requirement or has made an imprudent offer.

5. The Government reserves the right to conduct discussions, if necessary.

PART I TECHINICAL: Contractor shall address all three items identified below in the proposal:

1. Contractor shall submit a statement stating, "They meet all the requirements identified in the Performance Work Statement" (PWS).

2. Contractor shall address each line items in the PWS. Contractors are advised not to copy and paste

Specific line items in the PWS; instead comment on how you will provide and perform the service.

3. Contractor shall identify procedures and process how they will provide language translation, document translation and sign language services both in-person and telephonically for Womack Army Medical Center, and its satellite clinics located on Ft. Bragg and in the community. The contractor shall confirm an interpreter will be present at scheduled appointments within 24 hours of all Service requests made greater than 24 hours prior to a scheduled patient appointment. The contractor may provide video remote interpreting for requests received with less than 24 hours' notice as a back-up option with in-person interpreting as the government preferred option.

Technical will be evaluated as either Acceptable or Unacceptable. Best value is expected to result from selection of the technically acceptable proposal with the lowest evaluated price.

Definitions are as follows:

ACCEPTABLE: To be rated acceptable, the offeror's technical proposal must demonstrate it can meet all requirements.

UNACCEPTABLE: A technical proposal that fails to demonstrate it can meet one or more requirements will be determined unacceptable. The contractor shall meet all the technical specifications identified above; if not, the proposal will be considered unacceptable.

PART II PRICE:

Price will be evaluated separately from Technical and will be evaluated for fairness and reasonability.

PART III PAST PERFORMANCE

Offeror is required to submit information, on a single page, identifying federal, state and local Government and private contracts performed within the past three years, which are similar in scope and complexity to the effort described in this solicitation. If none, offeror should so state and provide information on references.

Information provided by the Contractor shall state: The type of service provided with information to verify references: Names; telephone numbers; Points of Contact; amount of contract; and email addresses.

Past performance shall be used as an evaluation factor within the LPTA process, unless waived by the PCO in accordance with FAR 15.101- 2(b). It shall be evaluated in accordance with FAR

15.305 and DFARS 215.305. However, the comparative assessment in FAR 15.305(a)(2)(i) does not apply. Therefore, past performance will be rated on an "acceptable" or "unacceptable" basis using the ratings below.

ACCEPTABLE: Based on the offeror's performance record, the Government has a reasonable expectation that the offeror will successfully perform the required effort, or the offeror's performance record is unknown. (See note below.)

UNACCEPTABLE: Based on the offeror's performance record, the Government has no reasonable expectation that the offeror will be able to successfully perform the required effort.

Note: In the case of an offeror without a record of relevant past performance or for whom information on past performance is not available or so sparse that no meaningful past performance rating can be reasonably assigned, the offeror may not be evaluated favorably or unfavorably on past performance (see FAR 15.305 (a)(2)(iv)). Therefore, the offeror shall be determined to have unknown past performance. In the context of acceptability/unacceptability, "unknown" shall be considered "acceptable.
