In accordance with the Brooks Act procedures, each future task order will require a qualifications-based evaluation of each selected firm from the group of awarded individual delivery contracts. Each firm will be evaluated to perform the services required for each task order using Criteria B, C, D and E (as detailed below). Additionally, the Contracting Officer may consider work completed or substantially complete as part of these awards made herein. To be considered substantially complete 95% of an order must be considered completed and received by the Government.

Evaluations will be conducted prior to the solicitation for each task order during the ordering period as identified at the time of award in FAR 52.216-18 Ordering.

SELECTION CRITERIA: The selection criteria for this particular contract are listed below in DESCENDING order of importance. Criteria A-F are PRIMARY. Criteria G and H are SECONDARY and will be used ONLY as "tie-breakers" among technically equal firms.

Primary Criteria will be assigned a rating from “outstanding” to “unsatisfactory,” based on the risk to the Government that the Offeror will successfully perform that evaluated Criteria. An overall rating will also be applied to the proposal submission using the same rating scale.

Proposals failing to respond or provide complete information for each Criteria as required by this solicitation will be determined non-compliant and will be removed from further consideration.

For purposes of this solicitation, a stand-alone contract or single task order is considered one project. Separating activities performed under a contract or task order will not be considered multiple projects; conversely, combining activities performed under separate contracts or task orders to produce a single project will not be considered. A single task under an Indefinite Delivery Contract is considered a project, not an Indefinite Delivery Contract itself. Projects in which the AE service is not 100% complete will not be evaluated.
