Section SF 1449 - CONTINUATION SHEET

EVALUATION FACTORS

Evaluation Factors for Award

FACTORS TO BE EVALUATED

The following factors shall be used to evaluate offers: Factor I – Technical, Factor II – Quality Control Plan, Factor III – Cost/ Price.

The following factors shall be used to evaluate offers:

1. Technical

2. Quality Control Plan (QCP)

3. Cost/ Price

FACTOR I. TECHNICAL

In order to be found acceptable, the offeror’s technical proposal must demonstrate the capability of the vendor to meet/exceed the technical requirements as outlined in the PWS Part 5. Acceptable proposals will clearly define capability, to include a detailed/descriptive approach with supporting documentation for, at a minimum, PWS paragraphs 5.1, 5.2, 5.3 & 5.4.

FACTOR II. QUALITY CONTROL PLAN (QCP)

In order to be found acceptable, the QCP will show clear capability to meet the minimum requirements as outlined in PWS paragraph 1.6.1.

FACTOR III. COST/ PRICE

Price will be evaluated to determine if the offers’ proposed price is fair, reasonable, and balanced in accordance with the guidelines in FAR 15.404.

As part of the price evaluation, to account for the option period(s) possible under Clause 52.217-8 (maximum six months) “Option to Extend Services,” the Government will take the price for all CLINS of the final option period, prorate it to a six-month value, and add it to the sum of all CLINS (base plus four (4) option periods). This amount will be the Total Evaluated Price (TEP).

B. General Instructions

1. The selection process for this award will be made on Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) basis.

2. The submission of documentation will constitute the offeror’s acceptance of the terms and conditions of the RFP, concurrence with the Performance Work Statement (PWS), and contract type.

The prices shall be consistent with the written portion of the technical proposal.

c. Technical Capability Proposal- must include:

1. A detailed/descriptive approach that demonstrates how the vendor can meet/exceed the technical requirements as outlined in the PWS section 5.1 through 5.4.

iii. Key Personnel not yet employed by the vendor must have a letter of commitment signed by the employee stating that he/she will begin employment with the offeror by/before the start of the first period of performance if the offeror receives award of the contract.

d. Past Performance information is not necessary because CPARS is conducted during the evaluation period.

5. All documents for this solicitation are available on the Federal Business Opportunities (FedBizOpps) web site at http://www.fedbisopps.gov.

6. The offeror agrees to hold prices in its offer firm for 60 calendar days from date of receipt of offers.

7. System for Award Management. Unless exempted by an addendum to this solicitation, by submission of an offer, the offeror acknowledges the requirement that a prospective awardee shall be registered in the SAM database prior to award, during performance and through final payment of any contract resulting from this solicitation. The NAICS code prescribed in the solicitation will also be reflected in the SAMs record for the prospective awardee.
