EVALUATION OF BIDS

BASIS OF AWARD

This requirement for the repair and construction of asphalt pavements and delivery of asphalt for Fort McCoy shall be awarded utilizing Sealed Bidding Procedures in accordance with Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Part 14, as supplemented by the Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement (DFARS), and the Army Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement (AFARS). Award will be made with reasonable promptness to the responsible bidder submitting the lowest responsive bid in accordance with requirements and provisions herein.

The Government will evaluate proposed prices for balanced and reasonable pricing, using price analysis techniques.

Proposed prices evaluated as unreasonable or unbalanced may be grounds for eliminating the bid from award eligibility.

EVALUATION CRITERIA

The Government will evaluate bids received in response to this solicitation solely on the basis of price and price related factors.

a. RESPONSIVNESS OF BID. For a bid to be determined responsive and considered for award, the bid must comply in all material respects with the invitation for bids. Such compliance enables bidders to stand on an equal footing, and maintain integrity of the sealed bidding system (Subpart 14.301).

In order to be considered responsive the Bidder:

Properly signed SF 1442, with Original Signature Acknowledgement (if any) of all Material Amendments, Fully completed Attachment 1 - Bid Schedule. (3 Worksheets/Tabs to complete) Shall not qualify the terms and conditions of the solicitation in the submitted bid Shall comply with the instructions of the solicitation.

A Bid Bond/Guarantee is required and shall be provided in the amount of twenty percent

(20%) of the bid base year price or $3 Million whichever is less. (Bidders must use the Standard Form (SF) 24 if providing a bid bond as the bid guarantee)

Shall submit a complete sealed bid package prior to the cutoff for receipt of bids

Non-Responsive bids will not be considered for contract award.

NOTE: It is the bidder's responsibility to ensure all information/deliverables are provide within the sealed bid package, and that all reporting and requirements are met and confirmation of these requirements provided. The list above is not necessarily all inclusive of required information.

b. PRICE EVALUATION. Unit Prices will be evaluated to determine if they are reasonable, complete and balanced. The price analysis techniques in 15.404-1 (b) may be used as guidelines as per guidance provided in Subpart 14.408-2 to determine reasonableness of price. If adequate price competition is not obtained or if price reasonableness cannot be determined using price analysis of Government obtained information, additional information may be required from the bidder to support the proposed price.

As part of the 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 period of performance.

i. Total Evaluated Price: The total evaluated price will be a single numeric value, not to exceed 2 decimal places, calculated by the Government, that represents a single value which will be the value used to determine the lowest price and apparent winning bid. The steps and formulas utilized to calculate the Total Evaluated Price are as follows:

a. Contractor fully completes the Attachment 1 - Bid Schedule required information, all values are not to exceed 2 decimal places. (Required fields Highlighted within Attachment 1 document)

b. Attachment 1 Document will automatically calculate all other required figures utilizing the following formulas:

Item Amount = (Est. Quantity) * (Unit Price) Year Total = Sum of all Item Amounts

NOTE: There will be three year totals one for the base year and each of the two options years.

Offeror's Total Price= (Base Year Total) + (Option Year 1 Total) + (Option Year 2 Total) + (30% Increase)

Total Evaluated Price= (Offeror's Total Price)

ii. Balanced Pricing: Offerors are cautioned against submitting a bid that contains unbalanced pricing. Unbalanced pricing exists when, despite an acceptable total evaluated price, the price of one or more contract line items (including Base and Option Years) is significantly overstated or understated as indicated by the application of price analysis techniques. Offers that are determined to be unbalanced may be rejected if the lack of balance poses an unacceptable risk to the Government.

iii. Definitions:

Reasonableness. 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.

Completeness/Accuracy. The offeror’s bid is in compliance with the Price instructions in the solicitation.

c. RESPONSILBITY DETERMINATION. According to FAR Part 9.1, Purchases shall be made from, and contracts shall be awarded to, responsible prospective contractors only.

To be determined responsible, a prospective contractor must --

Have adequate financial resources to perform the contract, or the ability to obtain them (see 9.104-

3(a));

Be able to comply with the required or proposed delivery or performance schedule, taking into consideration all existing commercial and governmental business commitments;

Have a satisfactory performance record (see 9.104-3(b) and Subpart 42.15). A prospective contractor shall not be determined responsible or nonresponsible solely on the basis of a lack of relevant performance history, except as provided in 9.104-2;

Have a satisfactory record of integrity and business ethics (for example, see Subpart 42.15);

Have the necessary organization, experience, accounting and operational controls, and technical skills, or the ability to obtain them (including, as appropriate, such elements as production control procedures, property control systems, quality assurance measures, and safety programs applicable to materials to be produced or services to be performed by the prospective contractor and subcontractors). (See 9.104-3 (a).)

Have the necessary production, construction, and technical equipment and facilities, or the ability to obtain them (see 9.104-3(a)); and

Be otherwise qualified and eligible to receive an award under applicable laws and regulations.

No purchase or award shall be made unless the contracting officer makes an affirmative determination of responsibility. In the absence of information clearly indicating that the prospective contractor is responsible, the contracting officer shall make a determination of nonresponsibility.

INSTRUCTIONS TO BIDDERS

BID PREPARATION INSTRUCTIONS

The following instructions prescribe the format for the bid and describe the approach for the development and presentation of bid data. These instructions are designed to ensure the submission of necessary information to provide for the understanding and comprehensive evaluation of bids.
