ADDENDUM TO 52.212-2

Paragraph (a) is hereby supplemented with the following:

Contract Evaluation and Award:

Basis of Award –

(a) The Government will award a contract resulting from this solicitation to the responsible offeror whose offer conforming to the solicitation will be most advantageous to the Government, price and other factors considered. The following factors shall be used to evaluate offers:

The Government will accept the offer that offers the lowest price and is technically acceptable. An offer that is technically acceptable conforms to all aspects of the solicitation and contains sufficient information to show the

Offeror can meet or exceed the requirements listed in the Performance Work Statement.

(b) Options. N/A

(c) A written notice of award or acceptance of an offer, mailed or otherwise furnished to the successful offeror within the time for acceptance specified in the offer, shall result in a binding contract without further action by either party. Before the offer's specified expiration time, the Government may accept an offer (or part of an offer), whether or not there are negotiations after its receipt, unless a written notice of withdrawal is received before award.

Award will be made to the responsible Offeror that provides the lowest price and a technically acceptable offer.

Except for communications conducted for the purpose of minor clarification, the Government intends to evaluate offers and award a firm fixed price contract without discussions. Therefore, each initial offer should contain the

Offeror's best terms from a technical and price standpoint. However, the Government reserves the right to conduct discussions if it is later determined by the Contracting Officer to be necessary.

Factor 1 – Technical Capability Approach

TECHNICAL EVALUATION

RATING DESCRIPTION

Acceptable Offer clearly meets the minimum requirements of the solicitation.

Unacceptable Offer does not clearly meet the minimum requirements of the solicitation

Note: The government will not evaluate Past Performance or Price of any offer that is rated Technically

Unacceptable.

Factor 2 – Past Performance

Offeror is required to submit information on a single page identifying federal, state, local Government and private contracts performed within the past three years (from the date this solicitation is issued) which are similar in scope and complexity to the effort described in this solicitation. If none, offeror should so state and provide information on references. Information provided by the Contractor shall state the type of service provided with information to verify references: Names; telephone and fax numbers; Points of Contact; amount of contract; and email addresses.

Past performance shall be used as an evaluation factor within the Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) process. However, the comparative assessment in FAR 15.305(a)(2)(i) does not apply.

The following adjectival ratings will be used in evaluating Past Performance:

PAST PERFORMANCE EVALUATION 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.

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

Unknown

Confidence

(Neutral)

No recent/relevant performance record is available or the offeror’s performance record is so sparse that no meaningful confidence assessment rating can be reasonably assigned.

Note: In the case of an offeror without a record of relevant past performance or for whom information on past performance is not available or so sparse that no meaningful past performance rating can be reasonably assigned, the offeror may not be evaluated favorably or unfavorably on past performance (see FAR 15.305 (a)(2)(iv)).

Therefore, the offeror shall be determined to have unknown past performance. In the context of acceptability/unacceptability, unknown shall be considered acceptable.

Evaluation of past and present performance will be subjective based on consideration of all relevant factors and circumstances. The currency, content, general trends, and relevance of the information in Contractor’s performance will be considered. Providing incorrect references and phone numbers may render your proposal as unacceptable.

The Government may also consider and use any additional information from its own files, databases such as the Past

Performance Information Retrieval System (PPIRS), references provided by the offeror, or from any source it deems appropriate. The Government may survey references to verify information provided and may survey other sources known to the Government.

If adverse past and present performance information is obtained, the respective point of contact may be contacted to obtain additional information about the circumstances surrounding the situation. Offerors will be given an opportunity to address unfavorable reports of past and present performance to which the offeror has not had a previous opportunity to respond. The offeror’s response, or lack thereof, will be taken into consideration. If an offeror does not have a past and present performance history relating to the solicitation, the offeror will not be evaluated favorably or unfavorably, and a neutral rating will be given for this factor. Offerors receiving a rating of neutral will be considered for award.

Factor 3 - Price

The proposed price shall include summing the total proposed price for the entire period of performance.
