INSTRUCTIONS
BASIS OF AWARD
The Government will award a contract resulting from this solicitation to the responsible offeror whose offer conforming to the solicitation will be most advantageous to the Government, price and other factors considered.
The Government will make a selection for award using the best value trade off process. In accordance with FAR 2.101, “Best value” means the expected outcome of an acquisition that, in the Government’s estimation, provides the greatest overall benefit in response to the requirement. The best value is determined by comparing differences in the value of non-price features. In making this comparison, the Government is more concerned with obtaining superior non-price factors than with establishing a contract at the lowest overall price to the Government.
The Government intends to evaluate offers and award a contract without discussions with offerors. Therefore, the offeror’s initial offer should contain the offeror’s best terms from a price and technical standpoint. However, the Government reserves the right to conduct discussions if later determined by the Contracting Officer to be necessary.
The Government may reject any or all offers if such action is in the public interest; accept other than the lowest offer; and waive informalities and minor irregularities in offers received. The Government also reserves the right to make no award.
Evaluation Factors are summarized below, but are fully described in solicitation provision 52.212-2 Evaluation – Commercial Items:
Evaluation Factors are listed in relative order of importance
1. Technical Approach
2. Price and Rates
3. Past Performance
4. Administrative Data
Technical and past performance, when combined, are significantly more important than cost or price.

e. A narrative explanation of how the Offeror intends to assure safe performance. Offerors should describe the safety approach, corporate systems, and capabilities to maintain safe working environments. Offerors shall describe their experience with implementing EM 385-1-1 under similar conditions to this contract.
The Government will evaluate the Offeror’s Technical Approach submittal as described in the evaluation factor contained in 52.212-2 Evaluation – Commercial Items.
B. VOLUME II—Price and Rates The offeror must provide a firm-fixed-price proposal. The Offeror must complete the workbook/worksheets provide in Pricing Worksheet Attachment 2 WC O&M 20230309.xlsx” (RFP Attachment 2). Offerors are responsible for verifying the accuracy of the formulas in the workbook. The offeror may modify the worksheets to fit its technical approach and accounting practices.
The ‘SUMMARY’ worksheet tab of the workbook are the total prices for the X001 and X002 series of CLINs along with the mark-ups for service orders. The CLIN amounts populate from other sheets in the workbook. The offeror will have to enter the service order mark up fees.
The ‘CLIN Roll UP’ auto-populates from the ‘CLIN X001 MGT & REPORTING’ and CLIN X002 PM’ worksheets. Please note that the ‘rounded’ price on the worksheet will be the binding monthly price that carries over to the SUMMARY tab.
The ‘CLIN X001 MGT & REPORTING’ will define rates/prices for key personnel and certain deliverables.
The ‘CLIN X002 PM’ worksheet is where you will build the individual prices for the periodic preventative maintenance. This CLIN will logically reflect a build up from the prices entered in the ‘PM Cost’ spreadsheet plus additional price elements such as travel.
The ‘PM Cost’ Worksheet is the notional price for individual service incidents as defined in the applicable RS Means Assembly Numbers. This tab will be used to negotiate price changes for additions or deletions of service incidents in future contract modifications. If a service incident is not performed, the applicable price will be disallowed on the invoice.
The ‘Labor Rates’ worksheet tab are the labor and indirect cost rates that the contractor will use to build-up service orders during contract performance. This tab will also bind the contractor for these rates used in future modifications of PM requirements. These rates will be incorporated into the contract as Pricing Worksheet Attachment 2.
The Offeror shall submit a narrative Basis of Estimate (BOE) identifying all the elements and rationale explaining the major price considerations used to prepare the price proposal. These considerations shall address, but are not limited to any assumptions made, estimating methodology, and any constraints related to the material, labor, equipment, and other cost and pricing data. The BOE shall include explanation of any changes made to the pricing workbook, or a statement indicating no changes were made. The BOE shall be submitted as a separate .pdf file and shall not exceed five (5) single-sided pages. A BOE that contains copies of the pricing workbook with no additional explanation as described above will be considered deficient and the Offeror will receive no further consideration.
Volume III—Past Performance: The offeror will provide a past performance questionnaire (Solicitation W912DY-23-R-0040 Attachment 5) for up to five (5) projects. The offeror may allocate some of the five questionnaire for projects performed by key subcontractors or other business units included in its team that will perform 20% or more of the current requirement.
The Past Performance Questionnaire (PPQ) included in the solicitation as Attachment 5 is provided for the offeror or its team members to submit to the client for each project the offeror includes in its proposal for Factor 3, “Past Performance”. Ensure correct phone numbers and email addresses are provided for the client point of contact. Completed Past Performance Questionnaires should be submitted with your proposal. If the offeror is unable to obtain a completed PPQ from a client for a project(s) before proposal closing date, the offeror should complete and submit with the proposal the first page of the PPQ (Attachment 5), which will provide contract and client information for the respective project(s). Offerors should follow-up with clients/references to ensure timely submittal of questionnaires. If the client requests, questionnaires may be submitted directly to the Government’s point of contact, Paul C. Daugherty via email at paul.c.daugherty@usace.army.mil prior to proposal closing date. Offerors shall not incorporate by reference into their proposal PPQs previously submitted for other RFPs. However, this does not preclude the Government from utilizing previously submitted PPQ information in the past performance evaluation.
In addition to the above, the Government may review any other sources of information for evaluating past performance. Other sources may include, but are not limited to, past performance information retrieved through the Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS), using all CAGE/DUNS numbers of team members (partnership, joint venture, teaming arrangement, or parent company/subsidiary/affiliate) identified in the offeror’s proposal, inquiries of owner representative(s), Federal Awardee Performance and Integrity Information System (FAPIIS), Electronic Subcontract
