Part III. EVALUATION OF OFFEROR PROPOSALS

1. ELIGIBILITY FOR CONTRACT AWARD. In accordance with the FAR, no contract shall be entered into unless the contracting officer ensures that all requirements of law, executive orders, regulations, and all other applicable procedures, including clearances and approvals, have been met. This includes the FAR requirement that no award shall be made unless the contracting officer makes an affirmative determination of responsibility. To be determined responsible, a prospective contractor must meet the general standards in FAR Part 9 and any special standards set forth in the solicitation.

2. SOURCE SELECTION USING THE LOW-PRICED, TECHNICALLY ACCEPTABLE

PROCESS. An evaluation for acceptability will be performance on each proposal in accordance with FAR 15.101-2(b)(3). The proposal that provides the lowest price and is otherwise technically acceptable in all factors will be selected for award. To be considered technically acceptable, no technical factor in the proposal may be determined to be unacceptable. The failure of a proposal to meet any of the acceptability standards for non-cost factors will result in a technically unacceptable rating and preclude award.

3. BASIS OF AWARD. Award will be made on the basis of the lowest evaluated price of technically acceptable (LPTA) proposals meeting or exceeding the acceptability standards for non-cost factors.

Tradeoffs will not be permitted. Proposals are evaluated for acceptability but not ranked using non-cost/price factors.

4. EVALUATION OF THE PRICE PROPOSALS

a. Price will be evaluated and considered but will not be scored or combined with other aspects of the proposal evaluation. The proposed prices will be analyzed for reasonableness. They may also be analyzed to determine whether they are realistic for the work to be performed, reflect a clear understanding of the requirements, and are consistent with the information provided by the Offeror.

Additionally, all offers will be analyzed for unbalanced pricing.

b. The otherwise technically-acceptable, lowest-priced offeror may be required to confirm its price on either a, CLIN, element, or total price basis, and/or provide additional information in support of their price, prior to contract award at the Government’s request and discretion.

5. INTENT TO AWARD WITHOUT DISCUSSIONS

The Government intends to evaluate proposals and award a contract without discussions. Offerors are reminded to include their best technical and price terms in their initial offer and not to automatically assume that they will have an opportunity to participate in discussions or be asked to submit a revised offer. The Government may make award of a conforming proposal without discussions, if deemed to be within the best interests of the Government.

6. PROPOSAL EXPENSE AND PRE-AWARD COSTS

The Request for Proposal does not commit the Government to pay any costs incurred in the preparation and submission of the initial and/or any subsequent proposals.

7. EVALUATION OF THE TECHNICAL PROPOSAL

The Technical Proposal will be evaluated based on the criteria identified in the individual attachments for the Factors.

8. GENERAL TECHNICAL CRITERIA

a. Material omission(s) may cause the technical proposal to be rejected as unacceptable.

b. Proposals which are generic, vague, or lacking in detail may be considered unacceptable. The offeror’s failure to include information that the Government has indicated should be included in the proposal may result in the offer being found deficient.

c. The Government cannot make award based on a deficient offer. Therefore, receipt of an

“UNACCEPTABLE” determination of acceptability for any factor will make the offer ineligible for award, unless the Government elects to enter into discussions with that Offeror and all deficiencies are remedied in a revised proposal.

d. Past Performance. Offerors with no relevant past performance information or for whom information on past performance is not available or so sparse that no meaningful past performance rating can be reasonably assigned will receive an “Unknown” rating for this factor. In accordance with FAR 15.305 (iv) In the case of an offeror without a record of relevant past performance or for whom information on past performance is not available, the offeror may not be evaluated favorably or unfavorably on past performance. Therefore, an Offeror receiving an “Unknown” rating may not be evaluated favorably or unfavorably on past performance. In the context of acceptability/unacceptability, "Unknown" shall be considered "Acceptable".

8. 52.217-5 EVALUATION OF OPTIONS

Except when it is determined in accordance with FAR 17.206(b) not to be in the Government's best interests, the Government will evaluate offers for award purposes by adding the total price for all options to the total price for the basic requirement. Evaluation of options will not obligate the Government to exercise the option(s).

The Offeror shall provide a supplemental narrative (not project lists), not to exceed two pages, explaining how any corporate past performance that is not directly related to the specific projects above is applicable to this project and how the Government will benefit. The following information may be considered:

Describe previous past performance. The Offeror may include past performance from other types of projects.

The above information is limited to projects that are substantially complete(fully designed and at least 50% construction progress completed )or that have been completed and turned over no longer than the past five years preceding the date of this solicitation.

The Government will utilize CCASS, ACASS, CPARS and any other information deemed relevant to assess confidence in the Offeror’s ability to perform.

While the Government may elect to consider data from other sources, the burden of providing detailed, current, accurate and complete past performance information rest with the Offeror.

New entities that have no past customers shall notify the KO in writing, prior to the date and time established for the Solicitation or Request for Proposal closing, that they have had no previous clients and that the minimum number of questionnaires cannot be provided; It is the contractor’s responsibility to ensure that the reference documentation is provided and accurate, as the Government may not make additional requests for past performance information from the references.

The Government will review all CPARS, ACASS, CCASS and the Government wide Past Performance Information Retrieval System (PPIRS) evaluations regardless of project and past performance questionnaires for projects submitted under the Factor for Experience. The Government may contact points of contacts listed on the “Experience Information” forms submitted.

FACTOR 1: PAST PERFORMANCE WILL BE EVALUATED BASED ON THE FOLLOWING

CRITERIA:

Each contractor shall provide at least three (3) and no more than five (5) past performance ratings. Any rating an offeror has in ACASS, CCASS, CPARS and PPIRS will count toward this requirement. The offeror is responsible for ensuring that the Contracting Officer has received a minimum of three (3) questionnaires prior to that date/time or has provided written notification to the Contracting Officer that they have current ratings in ACASS, CCASS, CPARS and PPIRS.

The Government will review the project past performance of the offeror, including subcontractors, on projects provided in response to the Past Performance Factor. Offerors must meet all of the following minimum acceptability standards to achieve an “ACCEPTABLE” rating for this factor:

(1) Offeror must have at least two (2) projects that are relevant to that of the work found in this solicitation; AND

(2) Each project must be valued at over $9,000,000.00, and they must have been at least 50% complete within the last 5 years.

Failure to demonstrate the minimally acceptability standards under this factor will result in an “UNACCEPTABLE” rating and possible elimination from further consideration for contract award.

All past or current references must have overall ratings of satisfactory or above in order to achieve an “ACCEPTABLE” rating.

In accordance with FAR 15.101-2(b)(1), if the Contracting Officer determines that a small business' past performance is not acceptable, the matter is referred to the Small Business Administration for a Contracting Officer’s Compliance determination.

In accordance with FAR 15.305 (iv), in the case of an offeror without a record of relevant past performance or for whom information on past performance is not available, the offeror may not be evaluated favorably or unfavorably on past performance.

RELEVANCY EVALUATION CRITERIA:

The Government will evaluate the Offeror’s past performance to determine how relevant the past performance is to the project under consideration. Past performance on the projects identified in the project forms will receive more consideration than past performance provided in the supplemental narrative. The Government will place greater value on projects performed as a prime contractor than as a subcontractor, depending upon overall role and relevancy considerations. Federal Government project past performance will not be rated inherently more important than non-Federal Government project past performance.

More relevant past performance will typically be a stronger predictor of future success and have more influence on the past performance confidence assessment than past performance of lesser relevance.

CONFIDENCE EVALUATION CRITERIA:

The SSEB will review the past performance information available, to include ACASS, CCASS, CPARS and other past performance information deemed relevant, to determine the quality and usefulness as it applies to performance confidence assessment. If any firm has multiple functions or divisions, the Government will only evaluate past performance of the division or unit submitting the offer. IF the Government cannot establish the Offeror’s relevant past performance, it reserves the right to utilize the Past Performance Questionnaire to conduct telephone interviews on any source it deems relevant to the evaluation. The Government will not release the information gathered to the Offeror at any time, in order for the Government to solicit candid, unbiased interview comments. The Government’s evaluation is not limited to past performance information on the cited example projects.

The confidence rating will be established based on the past performance of the firms or that of its predecessor, if applicable. An entity may not establish past performance based on the past performance of its key personnel apart from that of the entity. If the Government does not obtain past performance information and cannot establish a past performance record for the Offeror through other sources, a rating of Unknown (Acceptable) confidence will be achieved.

Offerors with no relevant past performance information or for whom information on past performance is not available or so sparse that no meaningful past performance rating can be reasonably assigned will achieve an “Unknown” rating for this factor. In the context of acceptability/unacceptability, "Unknown" shall be considered "Neutral".

Failure to demonstrate the minimally acceptable criteria under this factor will result in an “UNACCEPTABLE” rating and elimination from further consideration for contract award.

ADJECTIVE RATINGS AND DEFINITIONS TO BE USED TO BEST REFLECT

YOUR EVALUATION OF THE CONTRACTOR’S PERFORMANCE

RATING DEFINITION NOTE

(E) Exceptional Performance meets contractual requirements and exceeds many to the Government/Owner’s benefit. The contractual performance of the element or sub-element being assessed was accomplished with few minor problems for which corrective actions taken by the contractor was highly effective.

An Exceptional rating is appropriate when the Contractor successfully performed multiple significant events that were of benefit to the Government/Owner. A singular benefit, however, could be of such magnitude that it alone constitutes an Exceptional rating.

Also, there should have been NO significant weaknesses identified.

(VG) Very Good Performance meets contractual requirements and exceeds some to the Government’s/Owner’s benefit. The contractual performance of the element or sub-element being assessed was accomplished with some minor problems for which corrective actions taken by the contractor were effective.

A Very Good rating is appropriate when the Contractor successfully performed a significant event that was a benefit to the Government/Owner. There should have been no significant weaknesses identified.

(S) Satisfactory Performance meets minimum contractual requirements. The contractual performance of the element or sub-element contains some minor problems for which corrective actions taken by the contractor appear or were satisfactory.

A Satisfactory rating is appropriate when there were only minor problems, or major problems that the contractor recovered from without impact to the contract.

There should have been NO significant weaknesses identified. Per DOD policy, a fundamental principle of assigning ratings is that contractors will not be assessed a rating lower than Satisfactory solely for not performing beyond the requirements of the contract.

(M) Marginal Performance does not meet some contractual requirements. The contractual performance of the element or sub-element being assessed reflects a…
