L.2.2.1.7 Included in this RFP is Attachment 0003. This attachment is provided as an optional checklist to assist the offeror in the preparation of their submittal and is NOT an official Government document nor an extensive list of all proposal requirements in the RFP. This checklist is not intended to be, nor is it, an RFP summary and the offeror is still responsible for reviewing the entire RFP in preparation of its proposal to the Government to ensure a complete and accurate proposal. The Government is NOT responsible for incomplete proposals as a result of reliance on

Attachment 0003. Attachment 0003 IS NOT A REQUIRED SUBMITTAL WITH YOUR PROPOSAL AND WILL

NOT BE EVALUATED.

L.2.2.2 Submission Due Date The offeror must ensure its proposal, in its entirety, reaches the required destination before the date and time set for closing of the solicitation set forth in the “RFP Closing Date Narrative” on page 4 of the solicitation.

L.2.2.2.1 Lateness The lateness rules for submitted proposals are outlined in FAR 52.215-1 "Instructions to Offerors-Competitive Acquisition," and are incorporated into this solicitation.

L.2.2.3 Proposal Submission Address Proposals shall be submitted to the address below. All proposals delivered in response to this solicitation, whether hand-carried or submitted via U.S. mail, shall be addressed as follows:

US Army Contracting Command Warren Bid Room, Bldg 231, Mail Stop 303 Attn: Tyler Wonsowicz 6501 East 11 Mile Road Warren, MI 48397-5000

Solicitation Number: W911PT-19-R-0003 Proposal Due Date & Time: (Refer to the RFP Closing Date Narrative) TO BE DELIVERED UNOPENED (offeror's name)

L.2.2.4 Method of Submission for Unclassified Proposal Proposals submitted via e-mail will not be accepted. Proposals shall either be hand-carried or submitted via US mail.

Hand-carried submissions* include proposals delivered by commercial carriers such as FedEx, UPS, or services other than the US Postal Service.

Proposals must be delivered to the Detroit Arsenal (DTA) Mail Handling Facility (Building 255) between the hours of 8:00AM and 1:00PM local Warren, MI time. The package(s) will be dated and time stamped at the Mail Handling Facility and the Government will be responsible for forwarding the package(s) to the appropriate personnel.

Offerors should ensure that any commercial carrier it uses has a tracking system that can provide documentation that will prove the date and time of delivery to the Government. If the proposal is hand-carried by other than a commercial carrier, the delivery person (even if an employee of the offeror) must be a US citizen, and must obtain a signed receipt, indicating date and time of delivery, from the Mail Handling Facility personnel. The delivery person must provide the receipt since the Mail Handling Facility personnel do not have them.

*Directions to DTA: From Van Dyke Avenue, travel west on East Eleven Mile road to railroad track. Immediately after crossing railroad track turn right into DTA main gate and follow security officer directions to the Mail Handling Facility (Building 255). It may be necessary for the delivery person to obtain a visitors badge prior to being allowed to enter the installation. If so, the security officer will advise the delivery person of the procedures to follow.

L.2.2.4.1 Exterior envelopes must identify the solicitation number and date specified for receipt of proposals.

L.2.2.4.2 Offerors are cautioned that approval to enter the installation must be obtained prior to the closing date and time for receipt of proposals. Due to security procedures, delays are probable at the entry point and offerors must plan to accommodate them. It is the offerors responsibility to plan sufficient time to clear Detroit Arsenal security and ensure proposals reach the intended destination.

L.2.2.5 Proposal Modifications vs Proposal Revisions.

Proposal modification is a change made to a proposal before the solicitations closing date and time, or made in response to an amendment, or made to correct a mistake at any time before award.

Proposal revision is a change to a proposal made after the solicitation closing date, at the request of or as allowed by a Contracting Officer as the result of negotiations.

L.2.2.5.1 Offerors may submit proposal modifications at any time before the solicitation closing date and time, and may submit modifications in response to an amendment, or to correct a mistake at any time before award.

L.2.2.5.2 Offerors may submit proposal revisions only if requested or allowed by the Contracting Officer.

L.2.3 Single Proposal Submission

Offerors are limited to submitting one proposal with one approach to meeting all the requirements of this solicitation. Proposals that contain alternative terms and conditions will be considered as taking exception to the requirements of the solicitation. See Section M.2.

L.2.4 Organizational Conflict of Interest L.2.4.1 The provisions of FAR 9.5, Organizational Conflict of Interest (OCI), apply to any award under this Request for Proposal (RFP). Potential offerors should review their current and planned participation in any other Government contracts, subcontracts, consulting, or teaming arrangements where they may be in a position of actual or perceived bias or unfair competitive advantage.

L.2.4.2 Offerors shall disclose any potential OCI situations to the Procuring Contracting Officer (PCO) 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. The preferred approach to potential conflicts is to negate/obviate the conflict. Mitigation is considered only if it is not practical to negate/obviate the conflict. The PCO will promptly respond to resolve any potential conflicts.

L.2.5 Restriction On Disclosure and Use of Data.

Offerors that include in their proposals data that they do not want disclosed to the public for any purpose, or used by the Government except for evaluation purposes, shall:

L.2.5.1 Mark the title page with the following legend:

This proposal includes data that shall not be disclosed outside the Government and shall not be duplicated, used, or disclosed -- in whole or in part -- for any purpose other than to evaluate this proposal. If, however, a contract is awarded to this offeror as a result of -- or in connection with -- the submission of this data, the Government shall have the right to duplicate, use, or disclose the data to the extent provided in the resulting contract. This restriction does not limit the Governments right to use information contained in this data if it is obtained from another source without restriction. The data subject to this restriction are contained in sheets [insert numbers or other identification of sheets]; and L.2.5.2 Mark each sheet of data it wishes to restrict with the following legend:

Use or disclosure of data contained on this sheet is subject to the restriction on the title page of this proposal.

L.3 All or None Offers in response to this solicitation must be submitted for all the requirements identified in the solicitation. Offers submitted for less than all the requirements called for by this solicitation may be rejected or ineligible for award.

L.4 Evaluation Factors Offeror proposals shall address the following two Factors:

a. Past Performance

b. Price

L.4.1 Volume 1 - Past Performance Factor

For the Past Performance Factor, provide information for a total of up to two (2) Recent and Relevant Contracts performed by the offeror as the prime contractor. These may include foreign, federal, state, local and private industry contracts. The contracts provided (up to two (2)) can be any combination of minor or major construction projects as identified in L.4.1.2. 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 contractor’s 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.

For the purpose of this volume, a Contract is defined as a written instrument that requires the offeror to perform a distinct effort and demonstrates the distinct effort was actually performed. Written instruments such as Indefinite

Delivery (FAR 16.501-1), Basic Ordering Agreement (BOA), Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA), and Federal Supply Schedule (FSS), and other broad ordering instruments generally do not demonstrate the distinct effort was actually performed, and would therefore not be considered to meet the definition of a Contract. However the Government may consider a broad ordering instrument's statement of work or other requirements definition documents in the evaluation to assess the relevancy of the work actually performed on an executed subordinate written instrument (e.g. task/delivery order, work directive, technical instruction) determined to be a Contract. A task or delivery order executed under a broad instrument may be considered to be a Contract if it meets the definition above; task or delivery orders that function like a broad instrument (that involve executing written instruments like work directives, technical instructions, etc) generally do not demonstrate a distinct effort that was actually performed, and thus would not meet the definition of a Contract.

L.4.1.1 Recent Contracts are those performed within 6 years of the date of issuance of this RFP.

L.4.1.2 Relevant Past Performance will consider the extent to which the submitted contract efforts are relevant to the statement of work paragraph 4.1 work areas and are comparable in scope and magnitude of effort and complexity to the following statement of work requirements:

i. minor construction projects for either Government or U.S. non-residential buildings with a contract value between $50,000 to $100,000; or

ii. major construction projects for either Government or U.S. non-residential buildings with a contract value greater than $100,000

L.4.1.3 Contract Information: For each Contract(s) submitted, provide the following information:

(a) Contractor name and address who performed Contract;

(b) Contract Number (and delivery/task order number if applicable);

(c) Contract Type;

(d) Total Value of the Contract (beginning & ending value);

(e) Delivery or Performance Schedule;

(f) Government or private industry contracting activity address, telephone number and e-mail;

(g) Procuring Contracting Officers (PCO) and/or Contract Specialist’s name, or point of contact for private industry entity responsible for signing or administering the Contract, telephone number and e-mail;

(h) Government (DCMA) or private industry administrative contracting officer (ACO), contracting officers representative (COR), performance certifier, and/or quality assurance representative (QAR), name, telephone number and email;

(i) Specify the Government or Contractor Point(s) of Contact for which the Questionnaire was sent, and provide the date(s) it was sent.

(j) A description of the work performed by the offeror, which shall include a narrative describing the similarities between (1) the relevant work performed under the statement of work requirements of the offeror’s cited Contract(s) and (2) the statement of work requirements identified in L.4.1.2. In its narrative, the offeror shall specify the location in the cited Contract’s statement of work (to include paragraph and page number) that substantiates the relevant work performed;

(k) Contract period of performance;

(l) Provide a brief self-assessment of Contract performance. The self-assessment must address performance to meet Technical and Schedule requirements; and

(m) Copy of the Performance Work Statement or Scope of Work for each of the submitted Contracts. If details of the requirements or contractual standards of the performed effort are further defined elsewhere in the Contract, or defined under a broader instrument's scope of work that the contract is executed against, the offeror may also provide that information to establish relevancy of the Contract to the scope of work activity listed in L.4.1.2 above (These documents can be submitted as stand-alone attachments within the proposal volume).

L.4.1.4 Associated Entity, Predecessor Company, and Joint Venture. Only Contracts performed by the named offeror will be considered unless the Contract was performed by an associated entity, a predecessor company, or if the offeror is a joint venture.

i. Associated Entity. The Government may consider the past performance of an associated entity if the offeror successfully demonstrates meaningful involvement by the associated entity in the proposed effort.

a. An associated entity may include a parent company, separate corporate division within the same parent company, subsidiary company, a legally affiliated company, etc. The offeror shall provide to the Government a narrative that explains the offeror’s relationship to the associated entity. The offeror shall support the narrative with legal documentation, including but not limited to corporate papers, establishing the legal nexus between the offeror and the associated entity.

b. The offeror shall provide to the Government a narrative that explains the meaningful involvement the associated entity will provide to the proposed effort. Evidence of meaningful involvement may include a description of the associated entity’s resources, such as its workforce, facilities, and/or other resources that will be provided or relied upon in the proposed effort. A Contract will not be considered unless the offeror successfully establishes meaningful involvement by the associated entity in the proposed effort.

ii. Predecessor Company. The Government may consider the past performance of a predecessor company if the offeror demonstrates the experience of the predecessor company is reasonably predictive of the offeror’s performance under the proposed effort.

a. A predecessor company may include a company which was acquired by the offeror or merged with the offeror. It may also include other instances where the predecessor company was reorganized, restructured, or otherwise altered. A predecessor company does not include an entity which remains separate and distinct from the offeror. The offeror shall provide to the Government a narrative that explains the offeror’s relationship to the predecessor company.

The offeror shall support the narrative with documentation evidencing the offeror’s status as the successor company.

b. The offeror shall provide to the Government a narrative that explains why the predecessor’s past performance is predictive of the offeror’s performance under the proposed effort. Evidence may include, but is not limited to, continuity of operations such as the continued employment of the predecessor’s employees and the transfer of assets including buildings, furnishings, and fixtures.

iii. Individual Partners of a Joint Venture. If the offeror is a Joint Venture, the Government may consider past performance of each partner of the Joint Venture and any work performed by the Joint Venture itself previously. The offeror must successfully demonstrate meaningful involvement by the partner to the proposed effort.

a. The offeror shall provide to the Government a narrative that discloses the individual partners of the Joint Venture and shall provide documentation evidencing the Joint Venture.

b. The offeror shall provide to the Government a narrative that explains the meaningful involvement the Joint Venture partner will provide to the proposed effort. Evidence of meaningful involvement may include a description of the partner’s resources, such as its workforce, facilities, and/or other resources that will be provided or relied upon in the proposed effort. A contract will not be considered unless the offeror successfully establishes meaningful involvement by the partner in the proposed effort.

L.4.1.5 Past Performance Questionnaire. A past performance questionnaire is provided in Attachment 0002. For each contract submitted by the offeror, the offeror shall send a copy of the past performance questionnaire directly to the appropriate PCO and/or COR or other appropriate technical and contracting individuals. The offeror shall request that these individuals complete the questionnaire and forward it electronically directly to the Government at tyler.j.wonsowicz.civ@mail.mil as soon as possible and prior to the RFP closing date (See page 4 “RFP Closing Date Narrative”) with the subject heading “PAST PERFORMANCE INFORMATION FOR [Offeror name].

L.4.2 Volume II Price Factor In accordance with FAR 15.403-5(a)(1), certified cost or pricing data is not required for initial proposal submission.

However, after initial proposal submission, the Government reserves the right to request certified cost or pricing data in accordance with DFARS 252.215-7008. In the event certified cost or pricing data is required, the offeror may submit a written request for exception based on the applicable clauses contained herein.

For its initial proposal submission, the offeror shall provide the data other than certified cost or pricing data outlined below to permit a determination that the proposed price is reasonable.

L.4.2.1 Proposal Structure: The Price factor volume includes data to support the reasonableness of the proposed price. Offerors may submit any other additional cost, price, and financial information it considers to be helpful in the Government's evaluation of its price proposal.

L.4.2.1.1 Proposed prices are to be stated in United States (U.S.) dollars only.

L.4.2.2 The Price factor volume includes the following:

L.4.2.2.1 Attachment 0001 – Pricing Matrix:

Submit your completed Attachment 0001 - Pricing Matrix with your proposal. Complete the attachment in accordance with the instructions included within the attachment. Submit the attachment in Microsoft Excel format.

Do not enter any proposed prices into Section B of the RFP.

L.4.2.2.1.1 Labor Hours: Within Attachment 0001 – Pricing Matrix, for evaluation purposes only the Government has provided estimated labor hours for each labor category for each period (Ordering Years 1 through 5). Assume that the estimated labor hours will be evenly spread across the months of that performance period.

L.4.2.2.1.2 Labor Rates. Within Attachment 0001 – Pricing Matrix, propose direct labor ($ per hour), fringe ($ per hour), other indirect labor costs ($ per hour), and profit ($ per hour). Attachment 0001 – Pricing Matrix will then use these proposed inputs to calculate the fully burdened hourly ceiling labor rate and total extended price for each labor category for each period (Ordering Years 1 through 5).

L.4.2.2.1.3 Direct Material : For evaluation purposes only, the Government has provided an estimated cost for direct material within Attachment 0001 – Pricing Matrix. Do not alter or modify the estimated cost for direct material provided by the Government.

Within Attachment 0001 – Pricing Matrix, the offeror shall propose a ceiling indirect rate (to include costs such as material handling, material overhead, G&A) and a ceiling profit rate. Attachment 0001 – Pricing Matrix will then apply these proposed rates to the Government provided direct material cost to develop a total material price.

L.4.2.2.2 Provide a narrative explaining the basis for the proposed direct and indirect labor rates, specifically identifying any escalation factors used.

L.4.2.2.3 For labor categories subject to the Davis Bacon Act, the Government has provided the Wage Determination Number and occupational code within Attachment 0001 – Pricing Matrix, Tabs “OP 1” through “OP 5”. For those labor categories subject to the Davis Bacon Act (that have a Wage Determination Number and occupational code identified), the offeror is required to propose direct labor rates and fringe at or above the rates contained within the prevailing wage determination for each locality. For the purpose of evaluation only, assume the DBA wages will remain constant for the Base Period and all Option Periods.

To identify the prevailing Davis Bacon Act wage determinations for each locality, go to the website https://wdol.gov/ and search for DBA WD number NY2. Within RFP Attachment 0005, the Government has provided the appropriate Davis Bacon Act Wage Determination to use for proposal purposes only (Wage

Determination Number NY2; General Decision Number NY190002). For each occupational code listed within Attachment 0001 – Pricing Matrix, Tabs “OP1” through “OP5”, the direct labor rates and fringe identified within Attachment 0005 shall serve as the floor rate for proposal purposes.

L.4.2.2.4 Identification of Uncompensated Overtime: State whether uncompensated overtime is being proposed.

EVALUATION FACTORS FOR AWARD

M.1 Basis of Award M.1.1 GENERAL The Government plans to award more than one Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) type contract for this Watervliet Arsenal (WVA), Multi-Award Task Order Contract (MATOC) as a result of this solicitation. The Government reserves the right to choose not to award a contract if such action is in the Government’s best interest.

M.1.1.1 There are two evaluation factors:

a. Past Performance Factor

b. Price Factor The relative order of importance of these Factors are described in Section M.4 below.

M.1.1.2 It is the Governments intent to award approximately seven (7) contracts. Award will be made using the Trade Off source selection process IAW FAR 15.101-1, which states award may be made to other than the lowest priced offeror or other than the highest technically rated offeror that is eligible for award. The Government will follow the source selection process set forth in Section M.3 below.

M.1.1.3 Importance of Price. Award will be made to the Offeror whose proposal (1) is otherwise eligible for award.

This may not be the Offeror with the lowest evaluated Price Factor. However, the closer the Offeror's evaluations are to each other in those Factors other than the Price Factor, the more important the Price Factor becomes in the decision. Notwithstanding the relative order of importance of the two evaluation Factors stated herein, price may be controlling when:

(a) Proposals are otherwise considered approximately equal in non-price factors; or

(b) The advantages of a higher rated, higher priced proposal are not considered to be worth the price premium.

M.1.2 Eligibility for Award. Award will only be made to offerors who are eligible for award. To be eligible for award:

a. The offeror must be registered in System for Award Management (SAM) (see provision 52.204-7); and must be a self-certified U.S. small business concern as defined by (1) in FAR 19.001 and (2) by the criteria and size standards in FAR 19.102 for North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code 236220 in SAM; and

b. The offeror must be determined responsible (See Section M.3.6); and

c. The proposal must not contain a Deficiency(s) (per FAR Part 15.001); and

M.2 REJECTION OF OFFERS

M.2.1 The Government may reject any proposal if doing so is in the Government's best interest at any time after receipt of proposals. Examples include, but are not limited to, the following proposal conditions:

a. The proposal fails to meaningfully respond to the instructions in Section L of this solicitation (i.e. a proposal provides some data, but omits significant material data and information required by Section L, fails to follow proposal key proposal instructions or format requirements in Section L); or

b. When a proposal merely offers to perform work according to the RFP terms or fails to present more than a statement indicating its capability to comply with the RFP terms and does not provide support and elaboration as specified in Section L of this solicitation.

c. The proposal proposes exceptions to the solicitation requirements, attachments, exhibits, enclosures, or solicitation terms and conditions; or

d. The proposal contains one or more OCIs that cannot be avoided or mitigated. Refer to Section L.2.4 of this solicitation, "Organizational Conflict of Interest."; or

e. The proposal is unbalanced as to price. See Section M.4.2; or

f. The proposal’s acceptance period does not meet the Government’s required minimum acceptance period (Refer to Section L.1.2); or

g. The proposal is not in English (American Standard) or in US Dollars; or

h. A proposal submitted for less than all the requirements called for by this solicitation;

M.3 Source Selection Process.

M.3.1 Compliance Review. After receipt of proposals, but prior to the evaluation process, the Government will perform a compliance review of the offeror's proposal to determine the extent of compliance to the solicitation instructions, and whether the proposal meets any of the conditions listed in M.2, Rejection of Offerors.

M.3.2 Evaluation Process Evaluated proposals which are eligible for award will be subject to the Source Selection Trade-off process, considering both the evaluation factors and their relative order of importance as cited in Section M.4, to identify the proposal which represents the best value to the Government. The Government will weigh the evaluated proposals (other than the Price Factor) against the total evaluated price to the Government. As part of the best value determination, the relative strengths and weaknesses of each offeror's proposal shall be considered, as specified below, in addition to the other evaluation methods described below. Selection of the successful Offeror shall be made following an assessment of each proposal, based on the response to the information requested in Section L of this solicitation and against the solicitation requirements and the evaluation criteria described in Section M.

M.3.3 Source Selection Authority (SSA). The SSA is the official designated to direct the source selection process and select the Offeror for contract award.

M.3.4 Source Selection Evaluation Board (SSEB). An SSEB has been established by the Government to evaluate proposals in response to this solicitation. The SSEB is comprised of technically qualified individuals who have been selected to conduct this evaluation in accordance with the evaluation criteria for this solicitation. Careful, full and impartial consideration will be given to the evaluation of all proposals received pursuant to this solicitation.

M.3.5 Award without Discussions: This RFP includes FAR Provision 52.215-1 Instructions to Offerors Competitive Acquisition in Section L which advises offerors that the Government intends to make award without conducting discussions. Where awards will be made without discussions, exchanges with offerors are limited to Clarifications as defined in FAR 15.306(a). Therefore, the offerors initial proposal should contain the offerors best terms from a Price and non-Price Factor standpoint. However, under FAR 52.215-1(f)(4), the Government reserves the right to hold discussions, if necessary. If the PCO determines that the number of proposals that would otherwise be in the competitive range exceeds the number at which an efficient competition can be conducted, the PCO may limit the number of proposals in the competitive range to the greatest number that will permit an efficient competition among the most highly rated proposals.

M.3.6 Determination of Responsibility. Per FAR 9.103, the Government will place a contract only with an Offeror that the Contracting Officer determines to be responsible or refer the matter to the SBA per FAR 19.602. A prospective Offeror, in order to be eligible for award for this acquisition, must be able to demonstrate it meets the standards of responsibility set forth in FAR 9.104. As a part of this determination, the Contracting Officer may utilize the Offeror's proposed prices, as well as other information, to determine if the prospective contractor has adequate financial resources to perform the contract. The Government reserves the right to conduct a Pre-Award Survey on any or all Offeror(s) or its subcontractors to aid the Contracting Officer in the evaluation of each Offeror's proposal and ensure a selected Offeror is responsible. To verify an Offeror meets the responsibility criteria at FAR 9.104, the Government reserves the right to request additional information, to include, but not limited to the following:

(a) Arrange a visit to the Offeror(s) plant and perform a necessary Pre-Award Survey; or

(b) Request an Offeror provide financial, technical, production, or managerial background information. If an Offeror does not submit the requested information within seven working days from the date of the receipt of the request, or if an Offeror refuses to provide the Government access to its facility, the Government may determine the Offeror to be non-responsible. If the Government visits the Offeror's facility, the Offeror shall ensure current data relevant to the proposal is available for Government personnel to review.

M.3.7 Consistency. Each volume of the offerors proposal shall be consistent with the other proposal volumes and shall demonstrate the understanding and ability to perform according to the statement of work of the contract. The offeror should provide supporting documentation in sufficient detail to permit a complete evaluation of the proposal.

The Government may conduct a crosswalk between the information provided in offerors proposal volumes to assess whether the offeror submits consistent proposal information. Any inconsistency between proposal volumes, which indicates the offeror has an inherent misunderstanding of the requirements or an inability to perform the resultant contract, may result in an offeror being assessed with increased risk in one or more Factors and/or ineligible for award.

M.4 Evaluation Factors. The Government will assess each Offeror in two factors: (1) Past Performance (2) Price

a. Factor 1: Past Performance (M.4.1)

b. Factor 2: Price (M.4.2)

The relative order of importance is Past Performance is significantly more important than Price. As required to be defined by FAR 15.304(e), the non- cost/price factors, when combined, are significantly more important than cost/price.

M.4.1 Volume I Past Performance Factor

M.4.1.1 The Past Performance Factor will assess the expectation that the offeror will successfully perform the required effort based on recent and relevant past contract performance information relevant to the requirements listed in L.4.1.2 and the elements below.

i. minor construction projects for either Government or U.S. non-residential buildings with a contract value between $50,000 to $100,000; or

ii. major construction projects for either Government or U.S. non-residential buildings with a contract value greater than $100,000

M.4.1.2 The Government will conduct a Performance Confidence Assessment to establish a Confidence Assessment Rating for each offeror. The Confidence Assessment Rating assigned will be based on the offeror’s Recent and Relevant performance record and the expectation that the offeror will successfully perform the required effort described in L.4.1.2.

M.4.1.3 Contracts submitted in the Past Performance Factor volume of the offeror's proposal will not be considered if the Government determines them to be not Recent, not Relevant, or lacking any credible past performance information. Offerors without a record of Recent and Relevant past performance information upon which to base a meaningful confidence assessment will be rated as "Neutral Confidence", which is neither favorable nor unfavorable.

M.4.1.4 The Government may contact any of the references the offeror provides, may utilize internal or external sources regarding past contract performance information, and reserves the right to use any information received as part of its evaluation.

M.4.1.5 Past performance which is identified in the offeror’s Past Performance Factor volume but is not supported with the information requested in Section L may be determined not Relevant. In addition, if any other proposal volume indicates the cited past performance is not intended to be used by the offeror during contract performance, the cited past performance may be determined not Relevant.

M.4.2 Volume II Price Factor M.4.2.1 The Price factor evaluation will consider the total evaluated price to the Government. The total evaluated price is calculated on the “Summary” worksheet within Attachment 0001 – Pricing Matrix.

M.4.2.2 The Government will also evaluate whether or not the Offeror’s proposed price is reasonable. A price is reasonable if, in its nature and amount, it does not exceed that which would be incurred by a prudent person in the conduct of competitive business.

The Government may make a determination of reasonableness by any means allowable under FAR 15.404-1.

M.4.2.3 Offerors should note that pricing will be carefully reviewed to detect proposals that are unbalanced.

Unbalanced pricing exists when, despite an acceptable Total Evaluated Price, the price of one or more contract line items is significantly over or understated as indicated by the application of cost or price analysis techniques.

Unbalanced offers may be determined unacceptable. See FAR 15.404-1(g) for more information on unbalanced offers.
