EVALUATION FACTORS FOR AWARD

Basis for Award

The award will be made to a single responsible small business Offeror whose proposal is determined to be the lowest price, technically acceptable offer (FAR 15.101-2). To receive consideration for award, an “Acceptable” rating must be achieved for the Combined Technical/Management factor (to include all sub factors) and the Past Performance factor.

The Government reserves the right to award without discussions; therefore, offerors are cautioned to ensure that their proposals contain all necessary information and are complete in all respects.

A. FACTORS AND SUB FACTORS TO BE EVALUATED. The following evaluation factors and sub factors will be used to evaluate each proposal. Award will be made based on the lowest price of the proposal that is deemed technically acceptable.

A detailed explanation of the criteria for evaluation is set forth in the “Evaluation Approach,” paragraph B of this section. During evaluation of each proposal, the Government will assign each factor/sub factor, excluding Price, an Acceptable/Unacceptable rating. Each sub factor will be evaluated to determine if the proposed approach associated with each sub factor meets or does not meet the minimum performance or capability requirements. To receive an overall “Acceptable” factor rating, all sub factors must receive an “Acceptable” rating.

Factor 1: Combined Technical/Management Rating.

The Combined Technical/Management factor is further divided into the following sub factors:

A. Technical Approach B. Staffing C. Experience

Factor 2: Past Performance

Factor 3: Price

a. Price will not be adjectivally rated. Each offeror is to submit a price proposal in electronic Microsoft Word or Adobe PDF and Excel formats. A copy of a totaled Section B shall be included as part of the offeror's price proposal. The price proposal shall include a narrative and supporting documentation, loaded labor rate schedules, etc to establish price reasonableness of the proposed loaded labor rates and total prices. Certification of the submitted data is not currently required in accordance with FAR 15.403-1(b)(3).

b. Offeror price proposals will be evaluated for price reasonableness in accordance with the criteria in FAR 12.209, FAR 15.404-1(b), and FAR 15.403-3(c). The analytical techniques used to determine price reasonableness will be determined by the Contracting Officer in accordance with FAR 15.404-1(a)(1). In accordance with FAR 15.404- 3(c) each offeror shall submit the following as part of their price proposal:

1. Any current catalogs or price lists supporting the proposed commercial loaded labor rate prices.

2. History of prior sales to governmental and non-governmental customers, including proposed loaded labor rates, for the last two years for the same or similar being proposed. Explain any differences with respect to similarity.

c. CLINs with an ESTIMATED normalized amount for travel are specified for proposal purposes. Each Offeror is to include the below amounts in their proposals and Section B. Since Travel are estimated amounts that may or may not occur, no profit shall be proposed or accepted. Please use these exact amounts in your submitted proposal.

CLIN 0002 – Travel Base Yr - $17,945.00 CLIN 0004 – Travel Option Yr 1 - $18,483.00 CLIN 0006 – Travel Option Yr 2 - $19,037.00 CLIN 0008 – Travel Option Yr 3 - $19,609.00 CLIN 0010 – Travel Option Yr 4 - $20,197.00

d. The Government shall use evaluated underling cost/price data when making a responsiveness determination concerning an offeror’s compliance with FAR Clause 52.219-14 (DEVIATION 2020-O0008), Limitation on Subcontracting. Clause paragraph 52.219-14 (e) (1) states, “Services (except construction), it will not pay more than 50 percent of the amount paid by the Government for contract performance to subcontractors that are not similarly situated entities. Any work that a similarly situated entity further subcontracts will count toward the prime contractor’s 50 percent subcontract amount that cannot be exceeded. When a contract includes both services and supplies, the 50 percent limitation shall apply only to the service portion of the contract. Other direct costs are excluded to the extent they are not the principal purpose of the contract and cannot be obtained from small business concerns.” The Government shall use fully burdened labor costs inclusive of profit to determine if the Prime small business offeror as the concern meets the at least 50 percent of the cost of contract performance during each period of performance. An Offeror proposal found not in compliance with aforementioned clause shall be determined non-responsive and is ineligible for award.

B. EVALUATION APPROACH. All proposals shall be subject to evaluation by an evaluation team. The overarching evaluation approach for all factors and sub-factors is the adequacy of the offeror’s 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 if each requirement has been addressed in accordance with the proposal submission instruction section of the RFP.

1. Factor 1 – Combined Technical/Management. The Combined Technical/Management Factor is divided into the following sub-factors:

a. Sub Factor a: Technical Approach. The Technical Approach sub factor will be rated as Acceptable or Unacceptable in accordance with Table 1 below. To be rated as “Acceptable” under the Technical Approach sub factor, the proposal content shall clearly address the topics listed in Section L.

TABLE 1 – TECHNICAL APPROACH PLAN RATINGS

Rating Description

Acceptable Proposal clearly meets the minimum requirements of the solicitation.

Unacceptable

Proposal does not clearly meet the requirements of the solicitation.

b. Sub Factor b: Staffing. The Staffing sub factor will be rated as Acceptable or Unacceptable in accordance with Table 2 below. To be rated as “acceptable” under the Staffing sub factor, the proposal content shall address the topics listed in Section L, including key personnel requirements, completely and clearly. No substitutions for experience will be permitted.

TABLE 2 – STAFFING PLAN RATINGS

c. Sub Factor c: Experience. The Experience sub factor will be rated as Acceptable or Unacceptable in accordance with Table 3 below. To be rated as “acceptable”, the proposal must demonstrate experience in the topic area listed in Section L. Three (3) years minimum experience shall be met or exceeded and GFEBS Help Desk services have been provided in order for the proposal to be considered “Acceptable.”

TABLE 3 – EXPERIENCE PLAN RATINGS

2. Factor 2 – Past Performance.

Each offeror’s past performance proposal will be rated as either “Acceptable or Unacceptable” and is based on an assessment of the past performance submitted and the Government’s expectation that the offeror will successfully perform the required effort. This assessment is based on the offeror’s record of relevant and recent past performance information that pertain to the services described in the solicitation. The Government will evaluate whether the offeror’s present/past performance is relevant or not relevant to the services described in the solicitation. The Government will also evaluate how well the offeror performed on the contracts detailed in the offeror’s proposal.

The Government will focus its evaluation on the forms and questionnaires provided by the Offeror in its proposal and may consider 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 Government contracts for same or similar services that are relevant and recent.

Under this factor, the Government may evaluate third party references provided as to each Offerors and major subcontractor’s relevant and recent efforts, to verify the probability of successful accomplishment of the required effort. Relevant efforts are defined as services/efforts that are the same as or similar in size and complexity to the portion(s) of the PWS that the prime offeror or applicable major subcontractor is proposed to perform. Recent efforts are defined as those performed during the last five years, from the issue date of this RFP.

Marginal ratings in CPARS may be considered Unacceptable. Areas where third party reference information will be sought are indicated on the Past Performance Questionnaire attached to this Solicitation. Where a reference indicates that an Offeror’s performance was Unacceptable or Marginal in a particular area, the Government will consider any information provided by the Offeror to explain or rebut any Unacceptable or Marginal performance in a particular area. The burden is on the Offeror to identify in its proposal any and all extenuating circumstances which may bear on the Government’s evaluation of unfavorable reference information.

For the past performance factor, offerors will be evaluated in accordance with the chart below. This rating considers the assessed quality of the relevant/recent efforts gathered.

TABLE 4 – PAST PERFORMANCE RATINGS

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.

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

Absent any recent 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 not be evaluated either favorably or unfavorably on past performance.

3. Factor 3 – Price.

a. Price will not be adjectivally rated. Each offeror is to submit a price proposal in electronic Microsoft Word or Adobe PDF and Excel formats. A copy of a totaled Section B shall be included as part of the offeror's price proposal. The price proposal shall include a narrative and supporting documentation, loaded labor rate schedules, etc to establish price reasonableness of the proposed loaded labor rates and total prices. Certification of the submitted data is not currently required in accordance with FAR 15.403-1(b)(3).

b. Offeror price proposals will be evaluated for price reasonableness in accordance with the criteria in FAR 12.209, FAR 15.404-1(b), and FAR 15.403-3(c). The analytical techniques used to determine price reasonableness will be determined by the Contracting Officer in accordance with FAR 15.404-1(a)(1). In accordance with FAR 15.404- 3(c) each offeror shall submit the following as part of their price proposal:

1. Any current catalogs or price lists supporting the proposed commercial loaded labor rate prices.

2. History of prior sales to governmental and non-governmental customers, including proposed loaded labor rates, for the last two years for the same or similar being proposed. Explain any differences with respect to similarity.

c. CLINs with an ESTIMATED normalized amount for travel are specified for proposal purposes. Each Offeror is to include the below amounts in their proposals and Section B. Since Travel are estimated amounts that may or may not occur, no profit shall be proposed or accepted. Please use these exact amounts in your submitted proposal.

CLIN 0002 – Travel Base Yr - $17,945.00 CLIN 0004 – Travel Option Yr 1 - $18,483.00 CLIN 0006 – Travel Option Yr 2 - $19,037.00 CLIN 0008 – Travel Option Yr 3 - $19,609.00 CLIN 0010 – Travel Option Yr 4 - $20,197.00

5. Notice to Offerors.

All proposals shall be subject to evaluation by a team of Military and/or Government civilian personnel.

The Government intends to use evaluated underling cost/price data when making a responsiveness determination concerning an offeror’s compliance with FAR Clause 52.219-14 (DEVIATION 2020-O0008), Limitation on Subcontracting. Clause paragraph 52.219-14 (e) (1) states “Services (except construction), it will not pay more than 50 percent of the amount paid by the Government for contract performance to subcontractors that are not similarly situated entities. Any work that a similarly situated entity further subcontracts will count toward the prime contractor’s 50 percent subcontract amount that cannot be exceeded. When a contract includes both services and supplies, the 50 percent limitation shall apply only to the service portion of the contract. Other direct costs are excluded to the extent they are not the principal purpose of the contract and cannot be obtained from small business concerns.” The Government shall use fully burdened labor costs to determine if the Prime small business offeror is in compliance with the FAR Clause. An Offeror proposal found not in compliance with aforementioned clause shall be determined non-responsive and is not eligible to receive the award.

c. During post award performance there is some risk that in-scope contract modifications may be necessary under the changes clause to accomplish new, revised, or additional (un-anticipated) GFEBS tasks that are logical follow-on tasks that ATEC HQ requires to keep GFEBS supportable.
