11. UNBALANCED OFFERS. The Government may reject any offer that is materially unbalanced between contract line item numbers or sub-items on the bid schedule. An offer is materially unbalanced when it is based on prices which are significantly less than the cost for some work and prices which are overstated, in relation to cost, for other work. A materially unbalanced offer may be rejected if the Contracting Officer has a reasonable doubt as to whether the offer will result in the lowest overall cost to the government even though it may be the lowest priced technically acceptable offer. Additionally, an offer that is so unbalanced so as to be tantamount to an advance payment will be rejected even if acceptance of the offer would result in the lowest overall cost to the Government.

12. Offerors must propose on all line items for their offer to be considered for award.

(1) Mark the title page with the following legend: This proposal includes data that shall not be disclosed outside the Government and shall not be duplicated, used, or disclosed--in whole or in part--for any purpose other than to evaluate this proposal. If, however, a contract is awarded to this offeror as a result of--or in connection with-- the submission of this data, the Government shall have the right to duplicate, use, or disclose the data to the extent provided in the resulting contract. This restriction does not limit the Government's right to use information contained in this data if it is obtained from another source without restriction. The data subject to this restriction are contained in sheets [insert numbers or other identification of sheets]; and

(2) Mark each sheet of data it wishes to restrict with the following legend: Use or disclosure of data contained on this sheet is subject to the restriction on the title page of this proposal.

(f) Contract award.

(1) The Government intends to award a contract or contracts resulting from this solicitation to the responsible offeror(s) whose proposal(s) represents the best value after evaluation in accordance with the factors and subfactors in the solicitation.

(2) The Government may reject any or all proposals if such action is in the Government's interest.

(3) The Government may waive informalities and minor irregularities in proposals received.

(4) The Government intends to evaluate proposals and award a contract without discussions with offerors (except clarifications as described in FAR 15.306(a)). Therefore, the offeror's initial proposal should contain the offeror's best terms from a cost or price and technical standpoint. The Government reserves the right to conduct discussions if the Contracting Officer later determines them to be necessary. If the Contracting Officer determines that the number of proposals that would otherwise be in the competitive range exceeds the number at which an efficient competition can be conducted, the Contracting Officer may limit the number of proposals in the competitive range to the greatest number that will permit an efficient competition among the most highly rated proposals.

(5) The Government reserves the right to make an award on any item for a quantity less than the quantity offered, at the unit cost or prices offered, unless the offeror specifies otherwise in the proposal.

(6) The Government reserves the right to make multiple awards if, after considering the additional administrative costs, it is in the Government's best interest to do so.

(7) Exchanges with offerors after receipt of a proposal do not constitute a rejection or counteroffer by the Government.

(8) The Government may determine that a proposal is unacceptable if the prices proposed are materially unbalanced between line items or subline items. Unbalanced pricing exists when, despite an acceptable total evaluated price, the price of one or more line items is significantly overstated or understated as indicated by the application of cost or price analysis techniques. A proposal may be rejected if the Contracting Officer determines that the lack of balance poses an unacceptable risk to the Government.

(9) If a cost realism analysis is performed, cost realism may be considered by the source selection authority in evaluating performance or schedule risk.

(10) A written award or acceptance of proposal mailed or otherwise furnished to the successful offeror within the time specified in the proposal shall result in a binding contract without further action by either party.

(11) If a post-award debriefing is given to requesting offerors, the Government shall disclose the following information, if applicable:

(i) The agency's evaluation of the significant weak or deficient factors in the debriefed offeror's offer.

(ii) The overall evaluated cost or price and technical rating of the successful and the debriefed offeror and past performance information on the debriefed offeror.

(iii) The overall ranking of all offerors, when any ranking was developed by the agency during source selection.

(iv) A summary of the rationale for award.

(v) For acquisitions of commercial items, the make and model of the item to be delivered by the successful offeror.

(vi) Reasonable responses to relevant questions posed by the debriefed offeror as to whether source-selection procedures set forth in the solicitation, applicable regulations, and other applicable authorities were followed by the agency.

52.215‐4005 Preparation and Evaluation of Proposals (Construction)

A. Basis for Award:

Award will be made to the responsible offeror representing the best value based on the Lowest- Priced, Technically Acceptable (LPTA) proposal. The technical evaluation factor must be found to be “acceptable” in order for the proposal to be found technically acceptable. Proposals will not be ranked. Award will be made to the lowest priced, technically acceptable proposal. Firms may only submit one proposal. Acceptable/Unacceptable Ratings are defined as follows:

Acceptable: Proposal clearly meets the minimum requirements of the solicitation.

Unacceptable: Proposal does not clearly meet the minimum requirements of the solicitation.

The successful offeror’s proposed subcontractors or suppliers will be incorporated in any resulting contract. The identified subcontractors must be used on the project.

It is the offeror’s responsibility to ensure the completeness of its proposal. The Government intends to evaluate solely on the technical information provided in the initial proposal and not assume that an offeror possesses any capability that is not specifically identified in the proposal.

The Government intends to award without discussions.

Failure to submit mandatory information for a factor or subfactor, indicated by the word “shall” or similar verbiage in the solicitation, will result in a rating of “unacceptable” for that factor, and the offeror will be ineligible for award unless the Procuring Contracting Officer decides to hold discussions and includes the offeror in the competitive range.

If an offeror wishes to be credited with a subcontractor’s or supplier’s experience, a letter of commitment signed by the subcontractor/supplier and the prime contractor (offeror) must be submitted with the proposal. The letter of commitment shall clearly state that the offeror and the subcontractor/supplier have committed to construct this project together if the offeror receives the contract award. If a letter of commitment is not submitted, the experience will not be considered.

B. Proposal Submission Requirements

The offeror’s proposal shall be submitted in hard copy, with accompanying digital copies as set forth below.

The offeror’s proposal shall consist of two volumes:

4. Representations and Certifications.

Offerors shall complete and submit the price schedule (schedule of items/bid schedule) with their proposal and include a price for each line item, including subtotals and totals. Failure to do so may result in the proposal being rejected without further consideration. The technical evaluation factor (Recent and Relevant Experience) will be evaluated first. Price will be evaluated last.

C. Technical Evaluation Factor: Recent and Relevant Experience

For each of the Work Elements listed below (a. and b.), three (3) relevant projects shall be provided for the firm that will perform the work. If more than three (3) relevant projects are provided for a Work Element, only the three (3) most recent projects will be evaluated. If a project qualifies as relevant experience for more than one Work Element, provide multiple sheets for that project, one for each Work Element it satisfies. As described above, if an offeror wishes to be credited with a subcontractor’s or supplier’s experience, a letter of commitment signed by the subcontractor/supplier and the prime contractor (offeror) must be submitted with the proposal.

Recent is defined as work that is ongoing but not less than 50% physically complete or work that was completed by the firm within ten (10) years of the date of the initial proposal under this solicitation.

Relevant is defined in the two work elements below (a. and b.), as further explained by the definitions.
