ADDENDUM 52.212-2

This solicitation shall be evaluated by awarding to the quote that is technically acceptable and lowest price for each location.

The Government will evaluate quotes that are technically acceptable and on the basis of total aggregate price of all items within an area of performance under a given schedule.

An offeror must quote on all items within a specified area of performance for a given schedule. Failure to do so shall be cause for rejection of the quote for that area of performance of that Schedule. If there is to be no charge for an item, an entry such as “No Charge,” or the letters “N/C” or “0”, must be made in the unit price column of the Schedule.

Any quote which stipulates minimum charges or graduated prices for any or all items shall be rejected for that area of performance within the Schedule.

Offeror(s) may submit quotes for less than the total requirement of all areas. Below are examples of acceptable segments within the total requirement.

Entire requirement of Schedule of Services for all areas Entire Schedule of Services for one (1) area Entire Schedule of Services for Any number of Areas

The Government reserves the right to select all, some, none or any segment of an offer received in response to this solicitation.

Award(s) will be to the responsible vendor(s), conforming to the solicitation, for the services and/or combinations of services which will be most advantageous to the Government. Therefore, the offeror’s initial offer should contain the offeror’s best terms from a price and technical standpoint.

INFORMATION FOR EVALUATION

This section supplements clause 52.212-1 and 52.212-2 which is included elsewhere in this request for quotes. The Government intends to evaluate offers and award a contract without discussions with offerors. Therefore, the offeror’s initial offer should contain the offeror’s best terms from a price and technical standpoint. However, the Government reserves the right to conduct discussions if later determined by the Contracting Officer to be necessary.

The Government may reject any or all offers if such action is in the public interest; accept other than the lowest offer; and waive informalities and minor irregularities in offers received.

This solicitation shall be evaluated by awarding to the quote that is technically acceptable and lowest price for each location.

TECHNICAL FACTOR:

Evaluation –Each item in Technical Requirements Table will receive one of the adjectival ratings defined below.

Any criterion that receives “U” rating will result in an overall unacceptable rating for the factor and are not eligible for award.

ADJECTIVAL RATING DEFINITION

Acceptable (A) Quote clearly meets the minimum requirements of the solicitation.

Unacceptable (U) Quote does not clearly meet the minimum requirements of the solicitation.

TECHNICAL CRITERIA A or U The offeror has no active or inactive exclusions listed in their Entity Record on the System for Award Management (SAM).

In accordance with FAR 42.15, the offeror does not have any relevant Past Performance rated at “Marginal” or “Unsatisfactory”.

Hotel Requirements (PWS, paragraph 1.4.1) Airport Shuttle Service (PWS, paragraph 1.3.8 and 1.4.1) Gift Shop (PWS, paragraph 1.4.1) Exercise Room (PWS, paragraph 1.4.1) Full Service Restaurant OR Be within easy walking distance to family restaurants and attractions OR provide shuttle service to such facilities (PWS, paragraph 1.4.1)

B. PRICE FACTOR:

Submission Instructions – Offeror shall submit a fully completed SF 1449, Pricing Schedule, or acceptable alternative as identified in 52.212-1 or elsewhere in the RFQ.

The agreed upon items and quantities will be multiplied times their respective unit prices found in the RFQ. Local Government per diem rates for lodging and meals apply and cannot be exceeded. The government will not evaluate its option to extend services (see FAR Clause 52.217-8) as part of the price evaluation. This option is only intended to extend the ordering period for any quantities not used, not add additional quantity and will be evaluated based on the period of performance. Offerors are required only to price the base and option periods. Offerors shall not submit a price for the potential six month extension of services period (see FAR Clause 52.217-8) The Government may choose to exercise the Extension of Services at the end of any performance period, utilizing the rates of that performance period.

As part of its proposal, the offeror will provide the estimated total cost (if any) incurred to comply with the enterprise Contractor Manpower Reporting Application (eCMRA) requirement. Offeror will determine, in the schedule, CLIN(s) X002, to price or not separately price the CMRA requirement. CLIN(s) X002 shall be the CLIN(s) under which the Contractor shall bill for all costs associated with the eCMRA requirement.

Evaluation – Price will not be assigned an adjectival rating; and will be evaluated to determine if the offeror quoted price is fair, reasonable, and balanced. The government may determine that an offer is unacceptable if prices are significantly unbalanced. Price shall be evaluated at estimated quantities multiplied times their respective unit price.

Unbalanced Pricing: Offeror is cautioned against submitting quote that contains unbalance pricing. 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. The Government shall analyze offers to determine whether they are unbalanced with respect to separately priced line items or subline items. Quotes that are determined to be unbalanced may be rejected if the contracting officer determines that the lack of balance poses an unacceptable risk to the Government.

Subcontracting Plan (Large Businesses Only). The offeror shall provide with the proposal a subcontracting plan in accordance with FAR 19.704, DFARS 219.704, and AFARS 5119.704.

Master plans shall be effective for a 3-year period after approval by the contracting officer; however, it is incumbent upon contractors to maintain and update master plans. Changes required to update master plans are not effective until approved by the contracting officer. A master plan, when incorporated in an individual plan, shall apply to that contract throughout the life of the contract.

(c) For multiyear contracts or contracts containing options, the cumulative value of the basic contract and all options is considered in determining whether a subcontracting plan is necessary (see 19.705-2(a)).

The contractor shall—

(1) Submit the commercial plan to either the first contracting officer awarding a contract subject to the plan during the contractor’s fiscal year, or, if the contractor has ongoing contracts with commercial plans, to the contracting officer responsible for the contract with the latest completion date. The contracting officer shall negotiate the commercial plan for the Government. The approved commercial plan shall remain in effect during the contractor’s fiscal year for all Government contracts in effect during that period;

(2) Submit a new commercial plan, 30 working days before the end of the Contractor's fiscal year, to the contracting officer responsible for the uncompleted Government contract with the latest completion date.

This report will be acknowledged or rejected in eSRS by the contracting officer who approved the plan. The report shall be submitted within 30 days after the end of the Government's fiscal year.

PRICE FACTOR:

Submission Instructions – Offeror shall submit a fully completed SF 1449, Pricing Schedule, or acceptable alternative as identified in 52.212-1 or elsewhere in the RFQ.

The agreed upon items and quantities will be multiplied times their respective unit prices found in the RFQ.

As part of price evaluation, the Government will evaluate its option to extend services (see FAR Clause 52.217-8) by adding six (6) months of the offeror's final option period price to the offeror's total price. Offerors are required only to price the base and option periods. Offerors shall not submit a price for the potential six month extension of services period. The Government may choose to exercise the Extension of Services at the end of any performance period (base or option periods), utilizing the rates of that performance period.

As part of its proposal, the offeror will provide the estimated total cost (if any) incurred to comply with the enterprise Contractor Manpower Reporting Application (eCMRA) requirement. Offeror will determine, in the schedule, CLIN(s) X002, to price or not separately price the CMRA requirement. CLIN(s) X002 shall be the CLIN(s) under which the Contractor shall bill for all costs associated with the eCMRA requirement.

Evaluation – Price will not be assigned an adjectival rating; and will be evaluated to determine if the offeror quoted price is fair, reasonable, and balanced. The government may determine that an offer is unacceptable if prices are significantly unbalanced. Price shall be evaluated at estimated quantities multiplied times their respective unit price.

Unrealistically Low Prices: Prices quoted may be reviewed to determine whether they reflect a lack of technical understanding of the requirements and to assess the risk inherent in an offeror’s quoted prices. Unrealistically low quoted prices, initially or subsequently, may be grounds for rejection for this solicitation.

Unbalanced Pricing: Offeror is cautioned against submitting quote that contains unbalance pricing. 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. The Government shall analyze offers to determine whether they are unbalanced with respect to separately priced line items or subline items. Quotes that are determined to be unbalanced may be rejected if the contracting officer determines that the lack of balance poses an unacceptable risk to the Government.

The contractor is responsible for the delivery of quality services/supplies to the Government (see FAR 52.212-4, Contractor Terms and Conditions – Commercial Items). A formal Quality Control Plan (QCP) is not required for this commercial service. However, the contractor shall maintain an inspection system commensurate with commercial practices to ensure the Contractor only tenders for acceptance those items or services that conform to the requirements of this contract. A copy of the contractor’s quality control plan shall be provided to the Contracting Officer upon request after contract award.

1.6.2 Quality Assurance: The government shall evaluate the contractor’s performance under this contract in accordance with the Quality Assurance Surveillance Plan. This plan is a Government only document primarily focused on what the Government must do to assure that the contractor has performed in accordance with the requirements of the contract. The Government reserves the right to inspect or test any supplies or services that have been tendered for acceptance. Non-conforming services shall be re-performed at no increase in contract price. If non-conforming services are recurring, cannot be re-performed, or the services fail to achieve the Performance Requirements Summary (PRS), the Government may reject the nonconforming service(s) and document the contractor’s performance record accordingly. The Government may also issue a Contract Discrepancy Report (CDR) in which the contractor will be required to respond with the development of a corrective action plan (CAP) which identifies the root cause, corrective action (CA) for the root cause, CA for the specific nonconformance, and the date the CAs will be complete. The Government may also reduce the payment to the contractor IAW the PRS, or reduce payment to reflect the value of the services performed, or may perform the services and charge the Contractor for any related cost incurred and/or may terminate this contract for cause.

1.6.2.1 Non-conforming Supplies or Services: When a contractor’s performance does not meet contract requirements and/or approved work schedules and/or timeframes it is considered non-conformance.

Minor non-conformance usually can be corrected on the spot, where no further corrective action (CA) response is necessary, and can be issued by the COR to the contractor either through a verbal or written non-conformance report. Minor non-conforming services shall be re-performed within a specified time frame at no increase in contract price. If minor non-conformances are recurring or re-performance is not completed in full and within the specified time a Level II non-conformance may be issued to the contractor by the Contracting Officer (KO).

1.6.2.1.2 Level II (Major) non-conformance: is defined as a non-conformance, other than critical, that is likely to result in failure of the supplies or services, or to materially reduce the usability of the supplies or services for their intended purpose. Recurring Minor non-conformances, or a non-responsive contractor, indicating a trend or failure of the contractor’s quality control, can also be classified as a Major non-conformance. Major non-conformance’s shall result in the issuance of a written CDR from the KO to the contractor requiring the development of a CAP by the contractor which identifies the root cause, CA for the root cause, CA for the specific non-conformance and the date CAs will be completed.
