This requirement may fulfilled using the System for Award Management (SAM’s) website, https://www.sam.gov/portal/SAM/#1#1.

The offer shall provide convincing rationale to address how the offeror intends to meet performance work statement (PWS) requirements. 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 offer. Elaborate brochures or documentation, binding, detailed art work, or other embellishments are unnecessary and are not desired.

Volume I will be evaluated to determine whether the offeror has adequate management, staffing, and quality control program resources in place to satisfactorily fulfill requirements of the solicitation PWS. Volume I shall emphasize the offeror’s mission capability, management approach, and quality control plan in providing rental, delivery, pickup, setup, servicing and removal of portable latrines. All latrines used in performance of waste services must be serviceable. Offers shall discuss in sufficient detail to demonstrate overall understanding of the requirement and feasibility of approach concerning the expertise required to perform all required services. The volume shall be organized according to the following general outline:

· Sub factors are met when the offer addresses, describes, and provides a comprehensive explanation/information on the following items:

· TAB A – Sub-Factor 1: Management Approach. Under Management Approach, the offeror shall submit the following:

· Project timeline

· Monitoring and reporting

· Definition of roles – should be described within your proposal: Job Title of the given position, Description with a high-level breakdown of the role, and Responsibilities a list of all job functions.

· A description of the methods identifying deficiencies in the quality of services, the inspection techniques and process control methods to adequately ensure performance. Also, the offer shall describe the methods and processes to correct and prevent continuous deficiencies and defects in services. The QCP will ensure the contractor has adequate and standardized procedures in place at start of full performance to monitor performance. (QCP will not be included in the page limitation).

VOLUME II - PAST PERFORMANCE. The past performance evaluation will be accomplished by reviewing aspects of an Offeror's recent and relevant past performance, focusing on and targeting performance which is relevant to the effort as it directly relates to the work being procured under this solicitation and as defined in Addendum to FAR 52.212-2 Evaluation – Commercial Items.

Past Performance information described herein is required on the offeror and all subcontractors, teaming partners, and/or joint venture partners proposed to perform 15% of the proposed effort based on the total proposed price.

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

· 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 offers 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. Offers that do not contain the information requested by this paragraph risk receiving an unacceptable performance rating by the Government. The overall past performance evaluation is a subjective decision based on the whole of all 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. Therefore, the offeror shall be determined to have unknown past performance. In the context of acceptability/unacceptability, “unknown” shall be considered “acceptable.”

· Submission Requirements. The offeror shall forward the Past Performance Questionnaire, Attachment 3, to their past performance references. The past performance reference must email the completed past performance questionnaire to raymond.padgett5.civ@mail.mil, and lee.e.troope.civ@mail.mil prior to the solicitation close date and time. No past performance questionnaires will be accepted directly from the offeror. 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.

· Consent Letters - Executed by the contractor and each subcontractor, teaming partner, and/or joint venture partner, authorizing the release of past performance information.

· Organizational Structure Change History - Many companies have acquired, been acquired by, or otherwise merged with other companies, and/or reorganized their divisions, business groups, subsidiary companies, etc. In many cases, these changes have taken place during the time of performance of relevant present or past efforts or between conclusion of recent past efforts and this source selection. As a result, it is sometimes difficult to determine what past performance is relevant to this acquisition. To facilitate this relevancy determination, include in this offer volume a "roadmap" describing all such changes in the organization of your company. As part of this explanation, show how these changes impact the relevance of any efforts you identify for past performance evaluation/performance confidence assessment. Since the Government intends to consider present and past performance information provided by other sources as well as that provided by the offeror(s), your "roadmap" should be both specifically applicable to the efforts you identify and general enough to apply to efforts on which the Government receives information from other sources.

· 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 nature, size, and complexity to the services being procured under this Solicitation. The submittal shall include rationale supporting your assertion of relevance and how it was determined that the work performed previously was the same or similar in nature, size, and complexity to the work specified by this solicitation.

VOLUME III - PRICE. The offeror shall complete the bid sheet on Attachment 2 of the solicitation.

The Government reserves the right to require the submission of Other Than Certified Cost or Pricing Data as is deemed necessary to arrive at a fair and reasonable price.
