EVALUATION FACTORS FOR AWARD

A. BASIS FOR AWARD

The award will be made based on the best overall (i.e., best value-tradeoff) proposal that is determined to be the most beneficial to the Government, with appropriate consideration given to the four (4) evaluation factors: Past Performance, Experience, Small Business Participation and Price.

The Past Performance (Factor 1) is more important than Experience (Factor 2), which is significantly more important than Small Business (Factor 3). All evaluation factors other than cost or price (Factor 4), when combined are significantly more important than cost or price.

To receive a consideration for award, a rating of no less than “Acceptable” must be achieved for the Technical factor. Offerors will be cautioned that the award may not necessarily be made to the lowest priced offered.

B. FACTORS TO BE EVALUATED

The following evaluation factors will be used to evaluate each proposal. Award will be made to the offeror whose proposal is most advantageous to the Government based upon an integrated assessment of the evaluation factors described below.

The proposal will be evaluated on four factors: Past Performance, Experience, Small Business Participation, and Price.

Further description of each factor and additional information pertaining to evaluation standards are provided in Section C. The information requested for each of the factors shall be included in the appropriate volume and tab as indicated in Section D.

Factor 1 – Past Performance Factor 2 – Experience Factor 3 – Small Business Participation Factor 4 – Price

C. EVALUATION APPROACH

All proposals will be evaluated by the Source Selection Evaluation Board (SSEB).

The overarching evaluation approach for all factors and subfactors is as follows:

a. Adequacy of Response. The proposal will be evaluated to determine whether the offeror’s methods and approach have adequately and completely considered, defined, and satisfied the requirements specified in the RFP. The proposal will be evaluated to determine the extent to which each requirement has been addressed in the proposal in accordance with the proposal submission section of the RFP.

b. Feasibility of Approach. The proposal will be evaluated to determine the extent to which the proposed approach is workable and the end results achievable. The proposal will be evaluated to determine the extent to which successful performance is contingent upon proven devices and techniques. The proposal will be evaluated to determine the extent to which the offeror is expected to be able to successfully complete the proposed tasks and technical requirements within the required schedule.

The Technical Factor Ratings, excerpted below focus on the strengths, deficiencies, weaknesses, risks and uncertainties of the offeror's proposal. The verbal rating depicts how well the offeror’s proposal meets the Technical requirements.

TABLE 1 – COMBINED TECHNICAL/RISK RATINGS

Rating Description

Outstanding Proposal meets requirements and indicates an exceptional approach and understanding of the requirements. Strengths far outweigh any weaknesses.

Risk of unsuccessful performance is very low.

Good Proposal meets requirements and indicates a thorough approach and understanding of the requirements. Proposal contains strengths which outweigh any weaknesses. Risk of unsuccessful performance is low.

Acceptable Proposal meets requirements and indicates an adequate approach and understanding of the requirements. Strengths and weaknesses are offsetting or will have little or no impact on contract performance. Risk of unsuccessful performance is no worse than moderate.

Marginal Proposal does not clearly meet requirements and has not demonstrated an adequate approach and understanding of the requirements. The proposal has one or more weaknesses which are not offset by strengths. Risk of unsuccessful performance is high.

Unacceptable Proposal does not meet requirements and contains one or more deficiencies.

Proposal is unawardable.

Factor I - Past Performance

The Government will evaluate the offeror’s record of current and past performance to ascertain the probability of successfully performing the required efforts of the scope of work.

a. Evaluation of past performance shall be in accordance with this plan utilizing the forms and questionnaires set forth in Appendix D. If a CPARS evaluation is available, it shall be submitted with the proposal for each project included in Factor 2. If there is not a completed CPARS evaluation, submit a Past Performance Questionnaire for each project included in Factor 2.

b. The Government will focus its inquiries on the offeror’s (and major subcontractors’) record of performance as it relates to all solicitation requirements, including price, schedule, performance and management of subcontractors. Major subcontractors are defined as members of an offeror’s overall team who are expected to perform fifteen (15) percent or more of the proposed effort. A significant achievement, problem, or lack of relevant data in any element of the work can become an important consideration in the evaluation process. Therefore, offerors will be reminded to include the most current and relevant past efforts (within the past six years) in their proposal. Absent any current and relevant past performance history or when the performance record is so sparse that no meaningful confidence assessment rating can be reasonably assigned, the offeror will be assigned an “unknown confidence rating” and its proposal will not be evaluated either favorably or unfavorably on past performance. The Government may use data provided by the offeror in its proposal and data obtained from other sources, including data in Government files or data obtained through interviews with personnel familiar with the contractor and their current and past performance under Federal, State or Local government or commercial contracts for same or similar services as compared to the North American Industry Classification System NAICS 237990, Other Heavy and Civil Engineering Construction. Data used in conducting performance risk assessments shall not extend past six years prior to the issue date of the RFP, but may include performance data generated during the past six years without regard to the contract award date.

c. Offerors shall submit all Government and/or commercial contract numbers and descriptions for the prime offeror and each major subcontractor in performance or awarded during the past eight years, from the issue date of this RFP, which are relevant to the efforts required by this RFP. The Government may consider a wide array of information from a variety of sources, but is not compelled to rely on all of the information available.

d. The past performance factor considers each offeror’s demonstrated current and relevant past record of performance in supplying products and services that meet the contract requirements. There are two aspects to the past performance evaluation: relevancy (including quality assessment) and performance confidence assessment.

(i) RELEVANCY: The Government will conduct a performance assessment based on the relevancy of the Offeror's current and past performance, as well as, that of its major subcontractors, and the quality of the efforts provided as it relates to the probability of successful accomplishment of the required effort. These efforts include all aspects of schedule, performance and customer support, including the Offeror’s submitted subcontracting plan for this project and the Offeror’s record of:

1) Conforming to specifications and standards of good workmanship;

2) Maintaining program execution within price;

3) Adherence to contract schedules, including the administrative aspects of performance;

4) Ability to resolve technical and manufacturing problems quickly and effectively;

5) Businesslike concern for the interest of its customers;

6) Establishing and maintaining adequate management of subcontractors; and

7) Compliance with subcontracting plans submitted on previous projects.

QUALITY ASSESSMENT: Assess the quality of the offeror’s past performance on those recent efforts that were determined relevant by determining how well the contractor performed on the contracts.

Documented results from Past Performance Questionnaires, interviews, CPARS, and other sources form the support and basis for this assessment.

Past Performance Relevancy Ratings

Rating Definition

Very Relevant Current/past performance effort involved essentially the same scope and magnitude of effort and complexities this solicitation requires.

Relevant Current/past performance effort involved similar scope and magnitude of effort and complexities this solicitation requires.

Somewhat Relevant Current/past performance effort involved some of the scope and magnitude of effort and complexities this solicitation requires.

Not Relevant Current/past performance effort involved little or none of the scope and magnitude of effort and complexities this solicitation requires.

(iii) PERFORMANCE CONFIDENCE ASSESSMENT: The final step is for the team to arrive at a single consensus performance confidence assessment for the offeror, selecting the most appropriate rating from the chart below. This rating considers the assessed quality of the relevant/current efforts gathered. Ensure the rationale or the conclusions reached are included.

Performance Confidence Assessments

Rating Definition

Substantial Confidence Based on the offeror’s relevant performance record, the Government has a high expectation that the offeror will successfully perform the required effort.

Satisfactory Confidence Based on the offeror’s relevant performance record, the Government has a reasonable expectation that the offeror will successfully perform the required effort.

Limited Confidence Based on the offeror’s relevant performance record, the Government has a low expectation that the offeror will successfully perform the required effort.

No Confidence Based on the offeror’s relevant performance record, the Government has no expectation that the offeror will be able to successfully perform the required effort.

Unknown Confidence (Neutral) No relevant performance record is available or the offeror’s performance record is so sparse that no meaningful confidence assessment rating can be reasonably assigned.

Factor II - Experience

The offeror shall clearly demonstrate their documented experience and capabilities to perform the work as specified in the requirements. Demonstrated experience shall indicate, at a minimum, work completed on two (2) separate units. Demonstrated experience must include all items in the Demonstrated Experience Requirements list (below); however, not all items in the list must be present on all jobs but should be demonstrated cumulatively over the submitted experience. Experience may be work performed by the offeror, or a sub-contractor thereof. Work performed by a sub-contractor shall be clearly identified, and the offeror shall demonstrate with narrative and/or supporting documentation their full understanding and ability to coordinate the sub-contractor’s area of specialty or expertise.

Demonstrated Experience Requirements:

1) Hydropower generating unit disassembly, reassembly, and alignment work for vertical shaft umbrella type alternating current generators rated for continuous output equal to or greater than 50 Mega-Volt Amperes (MVA).

2) Finite Element Analysis of large rotating machinery (including support framework), the ability to prove the validity of the model and results, and the ability to clearly relay the full details of the model setup, critical findings, and results.

3) Evaluation of metallurgical failure phenomena in large rotating machinery, and the ability to perform weld repairs, focusing on control and monitoring of heat distortion of the components being weld-repaired. Performance and evaluation of Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) verification of weld repairs. Experience that includes specialized inspection techniques to aid in accuracy of inspection, such as Phased Array Ultrasonic Testing (PAUT) may be rated more favorably.

Credit for Subcontractor Experience and/or Certification; Letter of Commitment (LOC) If an Offeror wishes to be credited with experience and/or certification of a subcontractor or supplier, i.e., a firm that is not the prime contractor or part of the joint venture, a letter of commitment signed by the subcontractor and the prime contractor must be submitted. The letter of commitment must be submitted even if the firm is in some way related to a joint venture partner (for example, the subcontractor is subsidiary of a joint venture partner, or a subsidiary of a firm to which the joint venture partner is also a subsidiary). In regard to experience and/or certification, if an offeror submits projects demonstrating experience and/or certification in one of the factors, and that project was completed by a subcontractor, a subsidiary, or a supplier, as opposed to the prime or one of the joint venture partners, the offeror MUST submit a signed letter of commitment from the contractor who either performed and completed the work or holds the certification. If a letter of commitment is not submitted, the experience and/or certification will not be considered.

3. Factor III - Small Business Participation

All offerors (both large and small businesses) will be evaluated on the level of proposed participation of small businesses in the performance of acquisition (as small business prime offerors or small business subcontractors) relative to the objectives and goals established herein. The government will evaluate:

a. The extent to which such firms, as defined in FAR Part 19, are specifically identified in proposals;

b. The extent of commitment to use such firms (and enforceable commitments will be considered more favorably than non-enforceable ones);

c. Identification of the complexity and variety of the work small firms are to perform;

d. The extent past performance is in compliance with FAR 52.219-8 “Utilization of Small Business” and maximizing opportunities for U.S. Small Business Subcontractors.

e. The extent of participation of small business prime offerors and small business subcontractors in terms of the percentage of the value of the total acquisition. The Government will evaluate the extent to which the offeror meets or exceeds the goals: Goals for this procurement are --

Total SB (any type of small business) 5% of total contract value Subcategory Small Business o HUBZONE small business 1% o Woman Owned Small Business(WOSB) 1% o Service-Disabled Veteran Owned SB (SDVOSB) 1% o Small Disadvantaged Business (SDB) 2% o HBCU/Minority Institutions 0%

Small Business Participation Factor Rating Definitions: See Table 1 Above

4. Factor IV – Price The contract will be a Firm Fixed-Price Contract. The Government will evaluate offers for award purposes by evaluating the prices proposed in the Bid Schedule. The Offeror must provide a price proposal by completing the Bid Schedule as instructed in Section B.

a. The RFP requires firm fixed-price contract line items. A price reasonableness approach will be utilized by the Government to determine that the proposed prices offered are fair and reasonable and that a “buy-in” or unbalanced pricing between CLINs or Option Periods is not occurring.

b. The Government will examine price proposals for artificially low unit prices. Offers found to be unreasonably high, unrealistically low (an indication of “buy–in”), or unbalanced, may be considered unacceptable and may be rejected on that basis.

D. PROPOSAL SUBMISSION

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 serious problem for which the contractor has not yet identified corrective actions. The contractor's proposed actions appear only marginally effective or were not fully implemented.

A Marginal is appropriate when a significant event occurred that the contractor had trouble overcoming which impacted the Government/Owner.

(U) Unsatisfactory

Performance does not meet most contractual requirements and recovery is not likely in a timely manner. The contractual performance of the element or sub-element contains serious problem(s) for which the contractor's corrective actions appear or were ineffective.

An Unsatisfactory rating is appropriate when multiple significant events occurred that the contractor had trouble overcoming and which impacted the Government/Owner. A singular problem, however, could be of such serious magnitude that it alone constitutes an unsatisfactory rating.

(N) Not Applicable

No information or did not apply to your contract

Rating will be neither positive nor negative.
