SECTION M - EVALUATION FACTORS FOR AWARD

The following have been modified:

ADDENDUM FAR 52.212-2

The clause at FAR 52.212-2, Evaluation – Commercial Items, applies to this acquisition and is amended as follows.

(e) Basis for Contract Award: The basis of which this contract will be awarded will be price, technical capability, and past performance in accordance with Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Parts 12 and FAR 13 procedures.

By submission of this offer, the offeror accedes to all solicitation requirements, including terms and conditions, representations and certifications.

The contract resulting from this RFQ will be awarded to that responsible offeror (in accordance with FAR 9.104) whose offer, conforms to the RFQ, and is determined to provide the best value to the Government, which may not be the quote/proposal offering the lowest price. The award will be based on the combined evaluations of technical capability, past performance and price. Technical capability will be evaluated on an Acceptable/Unacceptable basis; only offerors rated as “Acceptable” in all four elements of their technical proposal will be considered for award. Past Performance and price will be subject to the best value trade-off process; with past performance being more important than price. The importance of price as an evaluation factor will increase with the degree of equality of the quotes in relation to the non-price factors. When technically acceptable offerors are considered essentially equal in terms of past performance, or when price is so significantly high as to diminish the value of past performance info to the Government, price may become the determining factor for award. The trade-off process is described below:

a. If one technically acceptable offeror is better in terms of past performance and has the lowest price, that offeror may be considered to be the best value.

b. If one technically acceptable offeror is better in terms of past performance, but does not have the lowest price, the Government will evaluate whether the differences in the non-price factor is worth the differences in price. If the differences are considered to be worth the differences in price, the offeror with the higher price may be considered the better value.

The evaluation process will include the following:

(1) Price Evaluation: Custodial Service Cost Coefficient (multiplier) for the custodial service tasks unit prices on the Pre-priced Custodial Service Unit Price Schedule and the Total Cost per month for each building. The coefficient shall be represented as "net" (e.g., 1.0), a "decrease from" (e.g., 0.95), or an "increase to" (e.g., 1.05) the custodial service task unit prices and building prices. The Government will use the coefficient to determine the total unit price of each custodial service task on the Pre-priced Custodial Service Unit Price Schedule and the Total Price per month for each building. Custodial Service Cost Coefficient shall be all inclusive and include, but not be limited to, the following costs: Initially, government will rank all offers by the coefficients’’ lowest to highest according to price, including all option period prices. The price evaluation will document the fairness and reasonableness of the coefficients’. The government reserves the right to perform price realism analysis.

NOTE: The contract will include FAR Clause 52.217-8, Option to Extend Services, with the potential to extend the contract an additional six (6) months beyond the awarded contract performance period. In the event the Government requires continued performance, the Government's evaluation of prices proposed for the base and all option periods will suffice to be the Government's evaluation of prices under the extension of services (ref. 52.217-8). Evaluating the Option Period CLINs or the six month Extension of Services Option does not obligate the government to exercise the Options.

(2) Technical Capability. The Government will evaluate technical proposals on a Pass/fail basis and assign an Acceptable or Unacceptable rating as described in Table 1 to each element of the four elements. An overall technical capability rating will not be assigned.

Table 1. Technical Ratings

Rating Description Acceptable

Proposal meets the requirements of the solicitation.

Unacceptable Proposal does not meets the requirements of the solicitation.

ELEMENT 1 – Management Approach and Staffing. This element is met when the offeror provides a Management and Staffing approach that demonstrates that the Offeror has properly qualified personnel to perform this requirement, has a very sound recruiting and retention plan to ensure the continued availability of properly qualified personnel and has a very efficient, effective and sound staffing approach that ensures an appropriate number of personnel are available to perform this requirement.

ELEMENT 2 - Quality Control Plan (QCP). This element is met when the offeror provides a Quality Control Plan that demonstrates a sound quality control system, which includes identification of responsible personnel, inspection of services provided, deficiency prevention/ correction, and outlines an effective system for control and accountability of keys to prevent unauthorized use.

ELEMENT 3 – Scheduling Approach. This element is met when the offeror demonstrates an effective method of scheduling work to be performed and the sample work schedule submitted by the offeror demonstrates a realistic and clear understanding of the work to be performed.

ELEMENT 4 Equipment & Supplies. This element is met when the offeror demonstrates an ability to sufficiently maintain an adequate quantity of equipment and supplies to perform the requirements of this contract.

A rating of Acceptable/Unacceptable will be assigned to each element. If an offeror receives an unacceptable rating in one or more elements, the offeror will not be considered for award.

(3) Past Performance Evaluation: The government will evaluate recent and relevant performance information on the lowest priced evaluated offeror based on: (1) Part IV - Past Performance Information provided by the offeror; (2) Any past performance information obtained from the Performance Questionnaires (Attachment 8); and (3) Any data independently obtained by the government and/or commercial sources.

The past performance evaluation will take into account past performance information from the principle offeror, as well as, previous contract's key personnel and subcontractors that will perform major aspects of the requirement. The past performance on the predecessors company's key personnel and subcontractors that will perform major aspects of the requirement will be rated as highly as past performance information for the principal offeror. The Government will use the following procedures in evaluating past performance:

The offeror's past performance efforts will be assessed for: Recency, Relevancy and Performance Quality. The Government will only evaluate performance quality on past efforts that are determined to be both recent and relevant.

(i) Recency: An assessment of the past performance information will be made to determine if it is recent. Recent past performance information includes contracts performed and/or being performed for any customer within the last three (3) years preceding the date of issuance of this solicitation, to include at least six (6) months of documented performance during the three (3) year period.

(ii) Relevancy: Relevant contracts performance effort involved similar scope, magnitude of effort, and complexities to that required by this solicitation. The government will assess relevancy for each contract and assign a rating as described in Table 2 below:

Table 2. Past Performance Relevancy Ratings

Rating

Rating Definition

Very Relevant Present/Past performance effort involved essentially the scope, magnitude of effort, and complexity that this solicitation requires. Performance of effort includes Custodial Service for facilities with multiple buildings and greater than 1,000,000 square feet.

Relevant Present/Past performance involved similar scope, magnitude of effort, or complexity that this solicitation requires. Performance of effort includes Custodial Service for facilities with multiple buildings between 800,000 and 1,000,000 square feet.

Somewhat Relevant

Present/Past performance involved some of the scope, magnitude of effort, and complexity that this solicitation requires. Performance of effort includes Custodial Service for facilities with multiple buildings between 500,000 and 800,000 square feet or only one building over 500,000 square feet.

Not Relevant

Past performance involved little or none of the scope, magnitude of effort, or complexity that this solicitation requires. Performance of effort includes Custodial Service for facilities less than 500,000 square feet or no Custodial Services.

(iii) Performance Quality: The quality assessment consists of an evaluation of recent and relevant past performance information available, regardless of its source. The quality assessment may reveal positive or adverse past performance information. Adverse past performance is defined as past performance information that supports a less than satisfactory rating on any evaluation element or any unfavorable comment received from sources without a formal rating system. For each of the recent and relevant past performance information reviewed, the performance quality of work will be assessed based on the: (1) Quality Assessment Criteria evaluated under Section 4 of the PPQ (Attachment _8_, (2) the evaluation ratings in the Federal Awardee Performance and Integrity Information System (FAPIIS), if available and (3) Past Performance information obtained from other sources available to the Government.

The purpose of the past performance evaluation is to assess the degree of confidence the Government has in the offeror's ability to meet the solicitation requirements based on the offeror's demonstrated record of performance. The assessment process will result in an offeror's overall performance confidence assessment rating of Substantial Confidence, Satisfactory Confidence, Limited Confidence, No Confidence, or Neutral Confidence.

Offerors with no recent past or present performance history or the offeror's performance record is so limited that no confidence assessment rating can be reasonably assigned will receive the rating "Neutral Confidence," meaning the offeror is treated neither favorably nor unfavorably (neutral). As a result of the relevancy and performance quality assessments, offerors will receive an integrated past performance confidence assessment rating as described in Table 3 below:

Table 2. Past Performance Confidence Ratings

Rating

Rating Definition

Substantial Confidence

Based on the offeror's quality/recent/relevant performance record, the government has a high expectation that the offeror will successfully perform the required effort.

Satisfactory

Based on the offeror's quality/recent/relevant performance record, the government has a reasonable expectation that the offeror will successfully perform the required effort.

Neutral

No recent/relevant performance is available or the offeror's performance record is so sparse that no meaningful confidence assessment rating can be reasonably assigned. The offeror may not be evaluated favorably or unfavorably on the factor of past performance.

Limited

Based on the offeror's quality/recent/relevant performance record, the government has a low

No Confidence

Based on the offeror's quality/recent/relevant performance record, the government has no

****Note: In evaluating past performance, the government reserves the right to give greater consideration to information on those contracts deemed most relevant to the effort described in this solicitation.****

E. IAW FAR 52.237-1, Offerors are urged and expected to inspect the site where services are to be performed and to satisfy themselves regarding all general and local conditions that may affect the cost of contract performance, to the extent that the information is reasonably obtainable.
