Element 1: Qualifications – The qualifications will be evaluated to determine whether Key Personnel possess the required qualifications.

Element 2: Work Experience – The Government will assess work experience to determine whether it is recent and relevant and to determine the level of performance risk associated with an offeror’s Key Personnel’s technical experience in the subject matter area of Public Involvement.

Element 3: Teaching Experience – The Government will assess teaching experience on whether it is recent and relevant and to determine the level of performance risk associated with the offeror’s key teaching personnel’s teaching experience in the subject matter area of Public Involvement.

FACTOR 3 – PAST PERFORMANCE

The Government will evaluate the offeror's likelihood of success in performing the solicitation's requirements and delivering high quality products and services as indicated by that offeror's record of past performance. In this context, “offeror” refers to the proposed prime contractor. Past performance of prime contractors whose firms are divided into severable segments (i.e. division, group, unit, etc.) will only be evaluated as it relates to those segments of the firm(s) that will actually perform the work.

There are four levels of relevancy as shown in the bullets below. More relevant past performance will typically be a stronger predictor of future success and will therefore have more influence on the overall performance confidence assessment than past performance of lesser relevance. The past performance references shall pertain to the PWS requirements as they relate to Public Involvement training.

• Very Relevant: Past performance effort is recent and involved essentially the same scope and complexity this solicitation requires.

• Relevant: Past performance effort is recent and involved similar scope and magnitude of effort and complexity this solicitation requires.

• Somewhat Relevant: Past performance effort involved some of the scope and complexity this solicitation requires.

• Not Relevant: Past performance effort is not recent and/or involved little or none of the scope and complexity this solicitation requires.

The Government may elect to consider data obtained from sources other than those identified by the offeror. In the event that adverse past performance information is obtained from other sources, the offeror will have the opportunity to respond to any adverse information received which it had not had a previous opportunity to comment.

If the Government does not receive past performance information and cannot establish a past performance record for the offeror, or if the offeror has no past performance record, the offeror will be given an “Unknown Confidence” assessment rating.

FACTOR 4 - PRICE

The proposed price will be evaluated for reasonableness. Proposals found to be unreasonable may be rejected on that basis. The Government will only award the required contract if a fair and reasonable price can be obtained. The Government may conduct negotiations to determine a fair and reasonable price while taking into consideration other non-price factors, which are of more importance than price. However, it is the Government’s intent to award without discussions.

RESPONSIBILITY RELATED INFORMATION

In accordance with FAR 52.219-14 – Limitations on Subcontracting: This clause applies to contracts that have been set aside or reserved for small business concerns. At least 50 percent of the cost of contract performance incurred for personnel shall be expended for employees of the concern. The offeror shall provide a statement on how it will achieve compliance with FAR 52.219-14 during the life of the contract in his proposal.

In accordance with FAR 52.219-8 – Utilization of Small Business Concerns, it is the policy of the United States that its prime contractors establish procedures to ensure the timely payment of amounts due pursuant to the terms and their subcontracts with small business concerns, veteran-owned small business concerns, service-disabled veteran-owned small business concerns, HUBZone small business concerns, small disadvantaged business concerns and women-owned small business concerns. The offeror shall provide a statement on how it will achieve compliance with FAR 52.219-8 during the life of the contract in his proposal.

Joint Venture - When proposing as a joint venture, all members of the joint venture shall sign the SF 1442 unless agreement by the joint venture is furnished with the proposal designating one firm with the authority to bind the other member(s) of the joint venture. In addition, a copy of the joint venture agreement shall be submitted with the proposal and will be evaluated in accordance with applicable regulations. Failure to comply with the foregoing requirements may eliminate the proposal from further consideration.

The Government will evaluate offers for award purposes by adding the total price for all options to the total price for the basic requirement. To account for the option period(s) possible under Clause 52.217-8 (maximum six months), Option to Extend Services, the Government will take the price for all CLINs of the final option period, prorate it to a six-month value as required, and add it to the sum of all CLINs (base plus all option periods). This amount will be the total evaluated price. The Government may determine that an offer is unacceptable if the option prices are significantly unbalanced. Evaluation of options shall not obligate the Government to exercise the options.
