3. Content

(a) Volume I – Completed Standard Form 1449, Completed 52.212-3 Offer Representations and Certifications, contractor information, subcontractor information, teaming agreements etc.

(b) Volume II – Mission Capability.

(1) The Mission Capability Volume shall be clear, concise, and include sufficient detail for effective evaluation and for substantiating the validity of stated claims in the Offeror’s proposal. Legibility, clarity and coherence are very important. Proposals will be evaluated against the Mission Capability factors defined 52.212-2 Addendum. The proposal should not simply rephrase or restate the Government's requirements, but rather shall provide convincing rationale to address how the offeror intends to meet these requirements. Statements that the offeror understands, can, or will comply with the PWS (including referenced publications, technical data, etc.);

statements paraphrasing the PWS or parts thereof (including applicable publications, technical data, etc.); and phrases such as “standard procedures will be employed” or “well known techniques will be used,” etc., will be considered unacceptable. Offerors shall assume that the Government has no prior knowledge of their facilities and experience, and will base its evaluation on the information presented in the offeror's proposal.

(2) The Mission Capability Volume shall, at a minimum, be prepared in a form consistent with the PWS and the evaluation criteria for award set forth in 52.212-2 addendum. The section shall be prepared in an orderly format and in sufficient detail to enable the Government to make a thorough evaluation of the contractor’s technical competence and ability to comply with the contract task requirements specified in the PWS.

(3) The offeror shall provide a copy of the 8(a) certification.

(c) Volume III - Past Performance. The Past Performance evaluation will be accomplished by reviewing aspects of an Offeror's recent and relevant Past Performance, focusing on performance which is relevant to the effort as it directly relates to the work being procured under this solicitation and as defined in Performance Work Statement (PWS)

Past Performance information described herein is required on the offeror and all subcontractors, teaming partners, and/or joint venture partners expected to perform 20 percent or more of the proposed effort based on the total proposed price. The offeror shall submit, along with the information required in this paragraph, a consent letter, executed by each subcontractor, teaming partner, and/or joint venture partner, authorizing release of adverse past performance information to the Government. Offerors will be provided the opportunity to respond to adverse past performance information. For each identified effort for a commercial customer, the offeror shall also submit a client authorization letter, authorizing release to the Government of requested information on the offeror's performance.

1. Early Proposal Information. The offeror is requested to submit the Past Performance Volume 10 calendar days after the RFP issuance date, to the Contracting Specialist.

2. The offeror shall include documentation regarding its relevant past performance as it directly relates to the work being procured under this solicitation. The offeror SHALL NOT go back any farther than three (3) years for the submitted data. The past performance data shall document a successful history of past contract performance.

3. In conducting the Past Performance evaluation, the Government reserves the right to use both the information provided in the offeror’s Past Performance Volume and information obtained from other sources, such as the Past Performance Information Retrieval System (PPIRS) or similar systems, Defense Contract Management Agency (DCMA) and commercial sources. Offerors are reminded that both independent data and data provided by offerors in their proposals may be used by the Government to evaluate offeror past performance. However, the burden of providing thorough, complete, and current past performance information as requested in this paragraph remains with the offerors. Proposals that do not contain the information requested by this paragraph risk rejection or a less than acceptable performance rating by the Government. All past performance comments received will be taken into account and could affect the overall rating. The overall past performance evaluation is a subjective decision based on the data received. 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. The offeror shall be determined to have unknown past performance. In the context of acceptability/unacceptability, “unknown” shall be considered “acceptable.”

4. Submission Requirements. The offeror shall submit a Past Performance Volume containing the following:

Table of Contents Summary Page describing the role of the offeror and each subcontractor, teaming partner, and

/or joint venture partner that the offeror is required to provide Past Performance Specific Relevant Contract Reference Sheets for the past performance experience in accordance with Attachment 1.

Consent Letters executed by each subcontractor, teaming partner, and/or joint venture partner, authorizing the release of past performance information to the Government. Offerors will be provided the opportunity to respond to such information. A sample consent letter is attached as Attachment 1.

Specific Relevant Contracts Format - Sheets in accordance with Attachment 2. The offeror shall provide documentation outlining the offeror’s past performance with contracts, as a prime or major subcontractor, which is the same or similar in size, time, scope, and complexity to the services being procured under this Solicitation.

Offerors are required to explain what aspects of the contracts are deemed relevant to the proposed effort, and to what aspects of the proposed effort they relate.

The points of contact shall return the questionnaires directly to Dayanna De la Cruz Cuello, Contract Specialist no later than proposal submission due date. Any questionnaires not returned directly to the Contracting Officer will not be reviewed and evaluated. The information contained in the questionnaires will be used to evaluate the offeror’s past performance. New entities that have no past customers shall annotate on the Summary Page that they have had no previous clients and that the minimum number of questionnaires cannot be provided.

(d) Volume IV- Price – The offeror shall complete Section B of the solicitation. For the Price Volume, the electronic version will take precedence for any differences noted between the hard copy and electronic versions of an offeror’s proposal.

ADDENDUM FAR 52.212-2

EVALUATION--COMMERCIAL PRODUCTS AND COMMERCIAL SERVICES (NOV 2021)

a. Basis for Contract Award. This is a best value source selection conducted in accordance with Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Contracting by Negotiation, as supplemented by the Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement (DFARS), and the Army Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement (AFARS) utilizing the Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) process. Award will be made to a single offeror who is deemed responsible in accordance with the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR), whose proposal is technically acceptable, conforms to the solicitation requirements, is found responsible, and whose proposal, judged by an overall assessment of the evaluation criteria and other considerations specified in this solicitation, represents the lowest price. The LPTA process does not permit tradeoffs among price and non- price factors (see FAR 15.101-2).

b. Award for All of the Work. The Government intends to award one (1) contract as a result of this solicitation. Offerors received for less than the stated number of items listed in the Price Schedule will be considered ineligible for award. As set forth in FAR 52.212-1(g), the Government intends to evaluate proposals and award a contract without discussions with offerors. Therefore, the offerors initial proposal should contain the offerors best terms from a price and technical standpoint. The Government reserves the right to conduct discussions if the Contracting Officer later determines them to be necessary.

c. Evaluation Criteria. Evaluation criteria consist of factors. The proposals will be evaluated under three (3) evaluation factors: Mission Capability, Past Performance, and Price.

Factor 1 – Mission Capability Factor. The Mission Capability Factor will receive one of the ratings defined below.

Table 1. Mission Capability Acceptable/Unacceptable Ratings Rating Description Acceptable Proposal meets the requirements of the solicitation.

Unacceptable Proposal does not meet the requirements of the solicitation.

In order to receive an acceptable rating, the mission capability factor submissions must demonstrate (1) experience in same or similar magnitude and complexity outlined in the PWS (2) ability to obtain, maintain the equipment and personnel to adequately support the effort outlined in the PWS.

Factor 2 – Past Performance. The Past Performance Factor will receive one of the ratings defined below.

Table 1. Past Performance Evaluation Ratings Rating Description Acceptable Based on the offerors performance record, the

Government has a reasonable expectation that the offeror will successfully perform the required effort, or the offeror performance record is unknown.

Unacceptable Based on the offerors performance record, the Government has no reasonable expectation that the offeror will be able to successfully perform the required effort.

Offerors 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, may not be evaluated favorably or unfavorably on past performance. 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. Past Performance must be both recent and relevant. To be recent, the effort must be ongoing or must have been performed during the past three (3) years from the date of issuance of this solicitation. To be relevant, the effort must be similar in nature of work, size, and complexity. Offerors must submit Relevant Experience and Past Performance on the attached sheets (See instructions for submittal).

Factor 3 – Price. Will not be scored or rated. Evaluation of price will be performed on quotations that have been evaluated and determined to be Acceptable for both Factor 1 and Factor

2. Price will not be evaluated on those responses found to be Unacceptable in either Factor 1 or Factor

2. The Government will determine whether prices are reasonable, complete and balanced. However, unreasonably high, unbalanced, inaccurate or incomplete price proposals may be the grounds for eliminating a proposal from competition.

Options. The Government will evaluate proposals for award purposes by adding the total price for all options to the total price for the basic requirement. The Government may determine that a proposal is unacceptable if the option prices are significantly unbalanced. Evaluation of Option to Extend Services under 52.217-8.

For the purposes of the award of this Contract, the Government intends to evaluate the option to extend services, provided under FAR 52.217-8, as follows: by adding one-half of the Offeror's final 12 month period prices to the total proposed price. Thus, the Offeror's total price for the purpose of evaluation will include the 60 month term plus an additional six-month period. Offerors will not propose a price for this additional six-month period. The evaluation will consider the possibility that the option can be exercised at any time during any contract performance period and can be exercised in increments of one to six months, but for no more than a total of six months during the life of the contract.
