Contract Award

1. The contract award will be made as a whole to the contractor offering the lowest price, after a determination of responsibility is made by the Contracting Officer and prices are determined to be fair and reasonable. This means that low price will be the determining factor considered for award of this contract. “Offeror Quotes” as referred to in this solicitation shall include a completed Price Breakout Schedule as included in this solicitation.

2. Content. Offeror quotes and any supporting information shall be specific and complete in every detail and shall contain the information necessary to properly assess the Contractor's capability to perform the specified contract services,

3. Quoted Prices. The completed Price Breakout Schedule will be reviewed for completeness and compatibility with the estimated price to perform the contract services. Quoted prices will be evaluated for price reasonableness.

The Offeror’s price quote will also be evaluated for proportionality and balance. An Offerors’ price quote may be considered to have unbalanced pricing when it contains line item prices that are significantly over or understated when compared to the estimated cost or competitive pricing. An offerers’ quote may be rejected if the Contracting Officer determines that the lack of balanced pricing poses an unacceptable risk to the Government.

4. Overall Price Evaluations. The Government will evaluate quoted prices for award purposes by adding the Offerors’ total price, including option pricing.

5. Discounts. Prompt payment discounts will not be considered in the evaluation of quotes.

6. The Government intends to evaluate price quotes and award a contract without discussions with offerors.

Therefore, the offeror's initial quote should contain the offeror's best terms.

7. A Government Representative may verify any information provided in the quote to better evaluate the Offerors’ ability to perform.

8. Simplified Acquisition procedures are being used per FAR Part 13 and Subpart 13.5.

A waiver to the Office of the Deputy Chief of Staff, G-2 must be submitted to authorize the request.

Security requirements are subject to change in accordance with HSPD-12, Office of Personnel Management, regulation or policy changes, etc. The Government shall add any changes to security requirements by modification to the contract.

3. Overview This performance-based Quality Assurance Surveillance Plan (QASP) sets forth the procedures and guidance the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), Huntington District, will use in evaluating the technical performance of the Contractor in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Performance Work Statement (PWS). The QASP objective is to define Government procedures to be used to verify that appropriate performance and quality assurance methods are used in the management of this performance-based contract. The purpose of the QASP is to assure that performance of specific activities and/or completion of milestones are accomplished in accordance with all requirements set forth in the PWS.

This QASP is a Government developed document used to ensure the Government receives quality services, and pays only for services actually provided. The QASP provides a systematic method to evaluate the services the Contractor is required to furnish.

This QASP describes the mechanism for documenting noteworthy accomplishments or discrepancies for work performed by the Contractor. Information generated from the USACE quality assurance activities will directly feed into the evaluation of incentives/disincentives as well as in performance discussions with the Contractor. The intent is to ensure that the Contractor performs in accordance with the requirements set forth in the performance work statement, that USACE receives the quality of services called for in the contract and that the USACE only pays for the acceptable level of services received.

The QASP details how and when the USACE will monitor, evaluate and document Contractor performance on the PWS. The QASP is intended to accomplish the following:

Define USACE roles and responsibilities.

Define the key milestones/deliverables that will be assessed.

Define acceptable, superior and unacceptable performance standards for key milestones/deliverables, as well as incentives/disincentives.

Describe the surveillance methodology that will be employed by the USACE in assessing the Contractor’s performance.

Describe the surveillance documentation process and provide copies of the form the USACE will use in evaluating the Contractor’s performance.

Outline payment and corrective action procedures.

4. Scope

The Contractor, not the Government, is responsible for all management and quality control actions to meet the terms of the contract. This QASP provides the general guidelines and methods the Government will use to ensure the Contractor provides Services as outlined in the Contractor’s Quality Control Plan.
