6. PROPOSAL EVALUATION AND BASIS FOR AWARD

6.1 This acquisition will utilize the Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) source selection procedure using Technical, Past Performance and Price to make an award decision.

6.2 The Government anticipates awarding one contract as a result of this Request for Proposal (RFP), based upon the results of a complete and thorough Government evaluation of proposals in accordance with this section. The Government, however, reserves the right to not award any contracts in the event that no proposals are considered to be in the best interest of the Government. Contract award will be made to the "responsible" Offeror whose proposal represents the Lowest Price Technically Acceptable proposal to the Government based on the Volumes/Factors and Subfactors set forth herein. (See FAR Subpart 9.104, which describes the standards prospective contractors, must meet to be determined “responsible”.) To receive consideration for award, overall evaluations of not less than "Acceptable" must be achieved for Volume I and Volume II. An evaluation rating of "Unacceptable" at the Subfactor level will cause the entire Proposal Volume/Factor and the entire Proposal to be evaluated as "Unacceptable. NOTE: THE GOVERNMENT

RESERVES THE RIGHT TO AWARD A CONTRACT BASED UPON INITIAL SUBMISSIONS,

WITHOUT EXCHANGES AND/OR DISCUSSIONS. ALSO NOTE THAT FAILURE TO SUBMIT A

TIMELY PROPOSAL IN EXACTLY THE MANNER REQUIRED BY THE SOLICITATION MAY

RESULT IN THE GOVERNMENT REJECTING THE PROPOSAL AS NON-

COMPLIANT/UNACCEPTABLE, AT THE SOLE DISCRETION OF THE CONTRACTING OFFICER.

6.3 The Government intends to evaluate proposals and award a contract without discussions with Offerors

(discussions are defined at FAR Subpart 15.306(d)). Therefore, the Offeror's initial proposal should contain the Offeror's best overall terms. The Government reserves the right to conduct discussions if the Contracting Officer later determines them to be necessary. In accordance with FAR Subpart 15.306(a)(2), if award will be made without conducting discussions, Offerors shall be given the opportunity to clarify certain aspects of their proposals, e.g., the relevance of an Offeror's Past Performance information and adverse Past Performance information to which the Offeror has not previously had an opportunity to respond, or to resolve minor clerical errors.

6.4 The source selection process will be conducted in accordance with FAR Subpart 15.3, Source Selection.

Proposals will be evaluated using the criteria listed in Evaluation Factors and Basis for Award.

6.5 The Contracting Officer will conduct a proposal compliance review after RFP closing for determination of basic proposal responsiveness prior to providing the proposals to the evaluation board.

6.6 In order to effectively and equitably evaluate proposals, the Contracting Officer must receive information containing sufficient detail to allow review and evaluation by the Government. Proposal clarity, organization, and cross-referencing are mandatory. Failure to submit an organized proposal may adversely affect an Offeror’s evaluation. Offerors should provide sufficient detail and clearly define all items required in this section. The Contracting Officer may remove any Offeror from further consideration during any phase of the procurement if the Offeror fails to meet the submittal requirements of the RFP.

Noncompliance with the RFP requirements raise serious questions regarding an Offeror’s understanding technical requirements and/or cost and are 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 not presented in an orderly format may be considered noncompliant with solicitation instructions will not be evaluated and will be removed from consideration for award. 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.

6.7 The Government reserves the right to reject any or all proposals at any time prior to award if such action is in the Government's best interest or considered nonresponsive; negotiate with any or all Offerors after the competitive range is determined; award a contract to other than the Offeror submitting the lowest price(s);

and award contract to Offeror submitting a proposal determined by the Government to be the most advantageous to the Government.

7. FACTOR 1 - TECHNICAL PROPOSAL EVALUATION – VOLUME I

7.1. Subfactor 1 - Compliance with FDA and OSHA requirements: The Government will evaluate the Offeror’s capability to maintain compliance with FDA and OSHA requirements and to prevent of food in adjoining operational food preparation areas.

7.2. Subfactor 2 - Critical Path Milestones: The Government will evaluate the Offeror’s capability to meet critical path milestones within the period of performance. The Government will pay particular attention to how the Offeror's proposed manpower levels and task schedule during the 8 week cafeteria shutdown will minimize disruption and downtime to kitchen operations; maintain safe paths of egress; utilize temporary partitions; control measures for dust, and noise and odors. The Government will evaluate the extent to which the Offeror's critical path milestones relate logically to other details in the Offeror's technical proposal.

7.3. Subfactor 3 - Communication with the Government Project Team: The Government will evaluate the

Offeror’s capability to provide clear and pro-active communication with the government project team (COR, KO and the user of the space) throughout the project period of performance.

7.4. Subfactor 4 - Design and Prepare Shop Drawings: The Government will evaluate the Offeror’s capability to design and prepare shop drawings, especially with regard to fire alarm system designs, control layouts, and wiring/installation of devices; and to stainless steel food service lines and fire treated wood framed casework, with integrated utilities and with the requisite high end construction, quality finishes and millwork necessary to acheive FDA compliant food service operations.

8. FACTOR 2 - PAST PERFORMANCE - VOLUME II

8.1 The Government will evaluate the relevancy to this contruction project of the Past Performance information provided by the Offeror, Past Performance Evaluation Questionnaires received, and information obtained from the Construction Contractor Appraisal Support System (CCASS).

8.2 The Government will assign one rating for each Offeror based on a relevancy and confidence assessment.

Offerors with no past performance information will be given a rating of Acceptable. Offerors will be provided an opportunity to address any negative past performance information about which the Offeror has not previously had an opportunity to respond.

8.3 The Government’s confidence assessment will be based on the elements listed below:

8.3.1 Quality of Construction. Based on all information available, the Government will assess the quality of the actual construction undertaken and the standards of workmanship exhibited by the Offeror.

8.3.2 Timeliness of Performance. The Government will evaluate all information available with respect to the Offeror completing past projects within the scheduled completion times.

8.3.3 Customer Satisfaction. The Government will evaluate all information available with respect to the Offeror’s past customer satisfaction, cooperation with customers, and interaction on past projects. Construction Contractor Appraisal Support System (CCASS) evaluations and Past Performance Evaluation Questionnaires received will be evaluated.

8.3.4 Subcontractor Management. The Government will evaluate all information available with respect to the Offeror’s management of subcontractors, including mitigation of conflicts and resolution of disputes at the lowest level.

8.3.5 Documentation. The Government will evaluate all information available with respect to the

Offeror’s level of meeting customer satisfaction on timeliness and quality of the documentation, reports, and other written materials completed by the Offeror on past projects.

8.3.6 Safety Record. All information available with respect to the Offeror’s safety record, to include

Construction Contractor Appraisal Support System (CCASS) rating and OSHA Form 300 or 300a for safety, lost time incident rate, safety incentive program, safety awards, and other indications of improvements in safety will be taken into consideration in evaluating the Offeror’s overall safety record.

9. FACTOR 3 - PRICING - VOLUME III

9.1 Total Evaluated Price will be evaluated using the price proposal submitted on the Bid Sheet B1 Cafeteria Expansion, Attachment 7. The Government will evaluate total price in accordance with FAR Subpart 15.305(a)(1), and by using one or more price analysis techniques identified in FAR Subpart 15.404-1 to ensure that prices are fair and reasonable. Note that adequate price competition alone may establish reasonableness.

9.2 If it is concluded that additional information is necessary to determine the reasonableness of the proposed price, the Contracting Officer may request information to determine the reasonableness of the Offeror’s price. This additional information may include, but is not limited to, indirect rates, material, labor and any other information that can substantiate the reasonableness of a proposed price. If applicable a Certificate of Current Cost and Price will be requested at time of award.

10. EVALUATION PROCESS.

The technical panel will provide a detailed evaluation and assign a technical rating for the Technical Volume and a performance confidence rating for the Past Performance Volume. The Price Proposal Volume will be evaluated by the Contracting Officer in accordance with Section 9.0 of this solicitation.

The technical panel will rate each Factor and Subfactor by consensus for each proposal submitted and will prepare initial and final reports. If consensus is not obtainable, a minority report prepared and signed by the dissenting evaluators, which shall be presented to the Contracting Officer for consideration.

Offerors are advised that the Government intends to award without discussions but reserves the right to conduct discussions at the sole discretion of the Contracting Officer, to identify significant, deficiencies, and other aspects of the Offeror’s proposal which, if addressed, may improve the proposal’s chances of award. The Government technical evaluation panel will evaluate proposals in accordance with the process and evaluation criteria stated herein, and will document the evaluation by providing a narrative discussion of the evaluation of each proposal in terms of the evaluation criteria and proposed strengths, weaknesses, and deficiencies. This narrative discussion shall be incorporated into a report, which will be presented to the Contracting Officer to assist in the competitive range determination, if needed. Upon establishment of the competitive range, and to the extent deemed necessary at the sole discretion of the Contracting Officer, written discussion items (DI) will be issued to remaining Offerors, using control numbers, to further investigate any weaknesses, deficiencies, or other subjects identified by the technical panel as germane to the evaluation process. These DIs are considered exchanges/discussions in accordance with FAR Subpart 15.306(d). The Contracting Officer may also issue DIs relating to any matter that requires written revisions to a proposal for which a binding agreement is required/desired. The technical panel will be responsible for briefing the Contracting Officer at all steps of the evaluation process. The technical panel shall provide its report to the Contracting Officer for a final briefing, if necessary.

Factor 1 (Technical), is more important than Factor 2 (Past Performance).

Factor 1(Technical) and Factor 2 (Past Performance), when combined, are significantly more important than Factor 3 (Price).

11. RATING METHODS/DEFINITIONS

11.1 TECHNICAL FACTOR: One of the following ratings will be assigned:

TECHNICAL RATINGS

Rating Definition Acceptable Proposal meets requirements of the solicitation.

Unacceptable Proposal does not meet requirements of the solicitation.

11.2 QUALITY/PERFORMANCE CONFIDENCE ASSESSMENT: Assess the quality of the

Offeror's past performance on those recent efforts that were determined relevant by determining how well the contractor performed on the contracts. Documented results from Performance Risk Assessment Questionnaires, interviews, Construction Contractor Appraisal Support System (CCASS), and other sources form the support and basis for this assessment. Once the Relevancy and Contract Performance of the past performance contracts has been established, the Offeror will be assigned one Performance Confidence Assessment for the Past Performance Volume as described by the table below:

PAST PERFORMANCE RELEVANCY RATINGS

Rating Definition Very Relevant Present/past performance effort involved essentially the same magnitude of effort and complexities this solicitation requires.

Relevant Present/past performance effort involved much of the magnitude of effort and complexities this solicitation requires.

Somewhat Relevant Present/past performance effort involved some of the magnitude of effort and complexities this solicitation requires.

Not Relevant Present/past performance effort did not involve any of the magnitude of effort and complexities this solicitation requires.

PAST PERFORMANCE RATINGS

Rating Description Acceptable Based on the Offeror's recent/relevant 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 recent/relevant 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 (or "neutral") past performance. In the context of acceptability/unacceptability, a neutral rating shall be considered “acceptable”.
