EVALUATION FACTORS FOR AWARD

M.1 EVALUATION FACTORS FOR FIRST ARTICLE TEST REQUIREMENT

M.1.1 If the offeror submits a request for waiver of First Article Testing but fails to comply with the requirements of paragraph L.4

PROVISION FOR WAIVER, the requested waiver may not be granted. If the waiver is not granted, more favorable alternative offers of price or delivery, conditioned upon the granting of a waiver, will not be considered in the evaluation process.

M.1.2 DELIVERY EVALUATION FACTORS

M.1.2.1 As specified in this solicitation, the Government reserves the right to waive the requirement entitled FIRST ARTICLE APPROVAL

(52.209-3 or 52.209-4), and will require an accelerated delivery schedule if the successful offeror is granted such a waiver. However, in no case will a delivery schedule predicated upon waiver of the First Article Test requirement be considered as an evaluation factor for award, even if such a schedule would be more advantageous to the Government.

M.1.2.2 If an offeror requests waiver of First Article Testing but takes exception to the accelerated delivery schedule set forth in the

Section F clause entitled TIME OF DELIVERY (FAR 52.211-8) herein, such offeror is not eligible for the requested waiver. In consequence, any award to that offeror will reflect either (i) the Government-proposed delivery schedule shown in that same clause, or (ii) the contractor-proposed schedule in that clause, if the Government has accepted it.

M.1.3 PRICE EVALUATION FACTORS. As specified in this solicitation, the Government reserves the right to waive the requirement in Section

E entitled FIRST ARTICLE APPROVAL (52.209-3 or 52.209-4), and requests the price of the proposed First Article Test (at Section B, Item

0001AB) from offerors who elect to seek such a waiver. In the event that the offeror requests and receives a waiver of First Article

Test requirements, the price for such testing, as identified by the offeror in Section B, Item 0001AB, shall be deducted from the total price otherwise cited for the materiel herein solicited. The offer will then be evaluated for award at the resulting alternate price.

M.1.3.1 If the offeror requests a waiver of First Article Test requirements, but fails to separately identify the cost of First Article

Testing in Section B, Item 0001AB of this solicitation, the Government reserves the right to evaluate the offer based upon the price for

0001AB, and to require that offeror perform on the contract at such price whether or not the First Article Requirement is waived, at no additional cost to the Government.

M.1.3.2 If the offeror requests but is not granted a waiver of First Article Testing, evaluation for award will be based upon the full amount entered for 0001AB: the amount entered for item 0001AB will not be deducted by the Government.

M.2 EVALUATION OF INCOMPLETE OPTION PRICING

M.2.1 Per FAR 17.203(d), offerors may price the option CLIN in this solicitation incrementally, by entering different option unit prices that will apply to different subquantities or quantity ranges (in the event that the Government elects to exercise less than 100% of the option). Notwithstanding this fact, the provision entitled EVALUATION OF OPTIONS (FAR 52.217-5, located elsewhere in this Section M) indicates that the Government's evaluation for contract award will include each offeror's price for 100% of the option quantity.

M.2.2 In light of the above, if an offeror specifies unit prices that apply to one or more option quantity ranges, but does not specify a unit price for 100% of the option, we will evaluate that offer for award as follows. The option price for such offer shall be deemed to be the higher of the unit price that applies to the basic (non-option) quantity, or the highest unit price that is identified against any range or subquantity of the option CLIN.

M.3 BASIS FOR AWARD

M.3.1 This acquisition will be conducted using the Simplified Acquisition Procedures (SAP) under FAR Part 13. The Government intends to award a firm-fixed-price contract to the responsible offeror whose proposal represents the best value to the Government, considering both price and non-price factors. Best value will be determined using a tradeoff process, as described in FAR 13.106-1(a)(2), where the

Government may accept other than the lowest-priced proposal if the perceived benefits of a higher-priced proposal merit the additional cost. Award will be made to the offeror whose proposal conforms to the solicitation requirements, including the Technical Data Package

(TDP) and First Article Test (FAT) requirements, and provides the greatest overall benefit to the Government. Unsuccessful offerors will be notified within seven days of award.

M.4 EVALUATION FACTORS

M.4.1 Proposals will be evaluated based on the following factors, listed in order of importance:

1. Technical Capability

2. Price

M.5 EVALUATION CRITERIA

M.5.1 Technical Capability: The Government will evaluate the offerors ability to meet the technical requirements of the solicitation, 3 4

Name of Offeror or Contractor:

PIIN/SIIN MOD/AMD

including compliance with the provided Technical Data Package (TDP) and successful completion of the First Article Test (FAT). The evaluation will assess:

M.5.1.1 Conformance to TDP: The offerors proposal must demonstrate that the proposed supplies fully meet the specifications, tolerances, and quality standards outlined in the TDP. The contractor is responsible for having all drawings and specifications. Failure to obtain the Government-provided TDP associated with this solicitation prior to proposal submission and prior to solicitation closing date may determine an offeror non-responsible and ineligible for award.

M.5.1.2 Capability to Perform: Pursuant to FAR 9.104-1, the offeror must demonstrate adequate technical knowledge, production capacity, and resources to deliver conforming supplies within the required timeframe.

M.5.2 Price: The Government will evaluate the total proposed price for reasonableness and realism, consistent with FAR 13.106-3(a).

Unrealistically low or unbalanced pricing may indicate a lack of understanding of the requirements and could result in a determination of nonresponsibility under FAR 9.104-1.

M.6 CONTRACTOR RESPONSIBILITY AND ELIGIBILITY FOR AWARD

M.6.1 The Government will award a contract to the offeror that:

M.6.1.1 submits the lowest evaluated offer if award is based on price only, or the offer that provides the best value to the Government if factors in addition to price are identified elsewhere in this solicitation, M.6.1.2 submits a bid or proposal that meets all the material requirements (including technical requirements of the specification, if applicable) of this solicitation, and

M.6.1.3 meets all the responsibility criteria at FAR 9.104.

M.6.2 To make sure that an offeror meets the responsibility criteria at FAR 9.104 the Government may:

M.6.2.1 arrange a visit to the offerors plant and perform a preaward survey;

M.6.2.2 ask the offeror to provide financial, technical, production, or managerial background information.

M.6.3 If the offeror does not provide the Government with the data requested within 7 days from the date the requested is received, or if the offeror refuses to have an onsite visit to the offerors facility, the Government may determine the offeror to be nonresponsible.

M.6.4 If the Government visits the offerors facility, please make sure that current certified financial statements and other data relevant to the bid or proposal available for Government personnel to review.

M.7 RESPONSIBILITY DETERMINATION

M.7.1 In addition to the evaluation factors above, the Government will determine the offerors responsibility in accordance with FAR

9.104-1 prior to award. This includes verifying that the offeror:

- Has adequate financial resources or the ability to obtain them (FAR

9.104-1(a));

- Can comply with the required delivery schedule (FAR 9.104-1(b));

- Has a satisfactory performance record (FAR 9.104-1(c));

- Has the necessary technical skills, production capacity, and quality controls to perform (FAR 9.104-1(e)); and

- Meets all other standards of responsibility outlined in FAR 9.104.

Offerors determined non-responsible will not be eligible for award.
