Once Mailroom Personnel are available, the bid bonds will be processed by the Security Guards using established security procedures and subsequently picked up by Mailroom personnel. After receipt by the Mailroom personnel, a record will be made of the receipt of the bid bonds. Completion of these actions will constitute delivery of the bid bonds by the date and time designated for receipt.

Offerors that use U.S. Mail or U.S. Express Mail must allow sufficient time for the bid bonds to be received by Mailroom personnel by the time specified. Offerors are responsible for allowing sufficient time for the bid bonds to be processed for receipt and are cautioned that sufficient time may be as much as 24 hours prior to the date and time designated.

4.1.4 The project description on the PPQ shall clearly describe the projects. The Government will not assume any project characteristics that are not specifically identified and described.

The Offeror may attach a continuation sheet to the PPQ if needed consisting of one (1) page to describe how the project contained the elements described above and meets the requirements of this factor. The submission must contain sufficient information for the government to determine whether the project meets the requirements of 4.1.3.1.

4.1.5 The PPQ must provide a Point of Contact for the Client. If the Government is unable to verify the information provided on the PPQs with the client Point of Contact, or by other sources available (e.g. CPARS), the Government reserves the right to disregard that project when evaluating the Offeror’s experience.

4.2 EVALUATION CRITERIA

4.2.1 The Offeror’s submission will be evaluated to determine whether the Offeror has experience performing recent, relevant projects. To meet the minimum requirements for this Factor:

A minimum of three (3) projects must meet the requirements of paragraph 4.1.3.1.

4.2.2 Rating Methodology for Factor 1. Factor 1 will be rated using the following adjectival descriptions:

ACCEPTABLE - Proposal meets the requirements of the solicitation.

UNACCEPTABLE – Proposal does not meet the requirements of the solicitation.

5. FACTOR 2 – PAST PERFORMANCE

5.1 SUBMISSION REQUIREMENTS

5.1.1 The Offeror shall demonstrate a record of performance on each project submitted for Factor 1. The information submitted through the Past Performance Questionnaire Summary Sheet (Attachment 2) and the Past Performance Questionnaire (PPQ) (Attachment 3) for Factor 1 will be evaluated for this factor. The PPQ is provided for the Offeror to submit to the client (Point of Contact) for each project the Offeror includes in its proposal. Offeror must ensure correct phone numbers and email addresses are provided for the client Point of Contact.

Completed PPQs must be submitted with your proposal by the specified closing date and time. Offerors should follow-up with clients/references to ensure timely submittal of questionnaires. While it is important to submit a PPQ signed by the client if the Offeror is unable to obtain a completed PPQ from a point of contact for a project(s) before proposal closing date, the Offeror shall complete blocks 1 – 5 of the PPQ which will contain contract and client information and submit it with the proposal. The Government will call and confirm information provided by the Offeror on the PPQs with the points of contact, to the extent necessary to verify the information in the PPQ or to obtain additional information. The Government reserves the right to interview other individuals if the point of contact is not available. If the Government is unable to verify the information in the PPQ, it may be disregarded. Offerors are cautioned that the PPQ must contain sufficient information for the government to determine whether the project contains the elements of work similar to this requirement as described in Factor 1. One (1) additional page may be used for each PPQ if needed to include this information as stated in Factor 1.

Project Information submitted in a format other than or in lieu of the PPQ (to include CCASS or CPARS) will not be considered. CCASS or CPARS will be obtained by the Government for the projects submitted. Offerors shall not incorporate by reference into the 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. The Government will consider any available CCASS or CPARS information on the relevant projects submitted. In addition, the Government may consider available past performance information on projects not submitted by Offerors’ in response to this solicitation.

5.1.2 Offerors may provide information on problems encountered on the identified contracts and the Offeror’s corrective actions.

5.1.3 Using PPQs as described above, Offerors shall demonstrate the quality of performance information on projects determined by the government to be recent and relevant from Factor 1.

5.1.4 While the Government may elect to consider data from other sources, the offeror must provide detailed, current, accurate and complete past performance information for evaluation by the Government.

5.2 EVALUATION CRITERIA

5.2.1 Past Performance Evaluation. The past performance evaluation results in an assessment of the probability that the Offeror will meet the solicitation requirements. The past performance evaluation considers each Offeror’s demonstrated record of performance on recent and relevant projects that involve a similar scope and magnitude of effort and complexities as this solicitation requires. The projects submitted for Factor 1 will be evaluated to assess the Government’s confidence in the ability of the Offeror to meet the solicitation requirements.

5.2.2 Performance Evaluation. The Government will evaluate the quality of the Offeror’s past performance using the sources available to it including but not limited to the projects identified by the Offeror and submitted on the PPQs and any additional information about those projects received from references and CPARS. The Government will consider any available CCASS or CPARS information on the relevant projects submitted by the Offeror under this factor. The Government reserves the right to determine an Offeror’s past performance to be Unacceptable if negative past performance information on relevant projects performed by the Offeror but not submitted in response to this solicitation is discovered.

5.2.3 The Government will consider past performance of the offeror and the past performance information submitted on members of a joint venture.

5.2.4 Rating Methodology for Factor 2. The Government will consider the recent and relevant past performance information to assign a past performance evaluation rating. To be rated “Acceptable” in this factor, Offerors must receive ratings of Satisfactory or better in each Rating Methodology for Factor 2. The Government will consider the recent and relevant past performance information to assign a past performance evaluation rating. To be rated “Acceptable” in this factor, Offerors must receive ratings of Satisfactory or better in each *Section of all recent, relevant PPQs submitted by the Offeror and on recent, relevant CPARs reviewed by the government. Section in a CPARS evaluation are Quality, Schedule, Cost Control (if applicable), Management, Utilization of Small Business, Regulatory Compliance, and Other Areas such as but not limited to Safety. The elements within each Section are not considered in determining whether an offeror is Acceptable for this factor. Projects for which an evaluation was performed under the older CCASS system, only the Overall Rating will be considered. Sections in a PPQ is the individual element within each Section. For example Quality Section is not rated however each question/statement such as a) Quality of technical data/report preparation efforts; b) Ability to meet quality standards specified for technical performance; c) Timeliness/effectiveness of contract problem resolution without extensive customer guidance; d) Adequacy/effectiveness of quality control program and adherence to contract quality assurance requirements (without adverse effect on performance) is rated and will be considered individually in the evaluation of this factor. This factor will be rated using the following adjectival descriptions:

Past Performance Ratings

Rating Description

Acceptable Based on the offeror’s performance record, the Government has a reasonable expectation that the offeror will successfully perform the required effort, or the offeror’s performance record is unknown.

Unacceptable Based on the offeror’s performance record, the Government does not have a reasonable expectation that the offeror will be able to successfully perform the required effort.

5.2.5 If no recent and relevant performance record is available or information is so sparse that no meaningful rating can be reasonably assigned, this factor will be assigned a rating of “Unknown” (FAR 15.305 (a)(2)(iv)). In the context of acceptability/unacceptability, “unknown” shall be considered “Acceptable”.

6. EVALUATION FACTORS

6.1 NON-COST FACTORS:

FACTOR 1 Corporate Relevant Specialized Experience

FACTOR 2 Past Performance

6.2 PRICE. Price analysis will be performed in accordance with FAR 15.404-1(b), to determine fairness and reasonableness. Reasonableness will be established using available pricing tools such as historical price information, price competition information, or the Independent Government Estimate. Proposals will be reviewed to determine price submission errors or omissions and areas requiring clarification.

7. OVERALL PROPOSAL EVALUATION

7.1 The evaluation will be based on the content of the proposal, and any information obtained from other sources, e.g. past performance information. The SSEB will not consider any documents incorporated by reference, except as expressly allowed by this solicitation.

7.2 Each member of the SSEB will independently consider all information provided in the proposal. Once these individual analyses are completed, the SSEB will assign a consensus rating for each evaluation factor. It is the responsibility of each member of the SSEB to provide and document whether the Offeror meets or does not meet the minimum requirements in order to support the assigned rating for each factor. Comments are required for all ratings.

7.3 The Government will evaluate the proposals beginning with the lowest price to the highest price until it reaches the first responsive and responsible Offeror who achieves Acceptable ratings in both factors. That Offeror will be selected for award and the remainder of the proposals will not be evaluated.

8. EXCEPTIONS. Exceptions to the contractual terms and conditions of the solicitation (e.g., standard company terms and conditions) may result in a determination to reject a proposal.

9. RESTRICTIONS. Failure to submit all the data in the format indicated in this section may be cause for determining a proposal incomplete and, therefore, not considered for evaluation, and for subsequent award.

10. BASIS FOR AWARD

10.1 Proposals must meet the criteria stated in the RFP in order to be eligible for award, to include responsiveness, and technical acceptability. A responsibility determination will be made in accordance with Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 9.1.

10.2 In order to determine which proposal(s) represent the best value, proposals will be evaluated against all source selection criteria in this RFP.

10.3 Award will be made on the basis of the lowest evaluated price of proposals meeting or exceeding the acceptability standards for non-cost factors. In order for a proposal to be considered awardable, there must be an “acceptable” rating in all non-price factors. The Government will make award to the lowest priced Offeror who is deemed responsive and whose price has been determined fair and reasonable. Reasonableness will be established by using price analysis in accordance with FAR 15.404-1(b), to determine fairness and reasonableness. Pricing tools such as historical price information, price competition information, or the Independent Government Estimate will be used to determine reasonableness.

10.4 The Government reserves the right to reject any and all offers.

10.5 Offerors are reminded to include their best technical and price terms in their initial offer.

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.

ADJECTIVE RATINGS AND DEFINITIONS TO BE USED TO BEST REFLECT YOUR

EVALUATION OF THE CONTRACTOR’S PERFORMANCE

(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.
