Offers will be evaluated for acceptability, but not ranked using the non-price factors/subfactors. All non-price factors and subfactors will be rated as either “acceptable” or “unacceptable”. In order to be considered for award, there must be an “acceptable” rating in every non-price factor/subfactor. In other words, a rating of “unacceptable” for any factor or subfactor will result in the entire offer being rated “unacceptable”.

FACTOR I TECHNICAL: Each factor and subfactor will be rated either acceptable or unacceptable. A rating of unacceptable for any factor or subfactor will result in an overall unacceptable rating. If an offeror fails to meet the minimum requirements outlined in one of the four (4) subfactors below, the subfactor, and overall proposal will be rated “unacceptable” and will not be eligible for award.

Technical Ratings

Subfactor 1. Business Registration: The offeror will be evaluated based upon on submitted documentation demonstrating a current and valid Business Registration issued by System Award Management web.

Subfactor 2. FNP’s Education Certificate (PWS Para 1.6.8): The offeror will be evaluated based upon on submitted documentation demonstrating a Certificate Master Degree of Science in Nursing as a minimum requirement.

Subfactor 3. FNP’s Certification of BLS or CPR (PWS, Para 1.6.8.1.1.): The offeror will be evaluated based upon submitted documentation demonstrating a current and valid certification in either the American Heart Association Basic Life Support (BLS) (Course C) or the American Red Cross Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR)/BLS Course.

Subfactor 4. FNP’s Prior Experience (PWS Para 1.6.8.1.2.): The offeror will be evaluated on submitted individual resume for a minimum of three (3) years of total nursing experience including one (1) year of Family Nurse Practitioner (FNP) within five (5) years. Resume must clearly identify information as required below:

- Proposed position title

- A description of qualifying work experience

- Company Name/Employer, email/phone number of validating point of contact (POC)

- Length of work experience (year/month/date - year/month/date)

FACTOR II. PAST PERFORMANCE: Past performance will be evaluated on an acceptable/unacceptable basis. Offerors are authorized to provide information on the problems encountered on the identified contracts and the Offeror’s corrective actions. The Government may ascertain past performance information on the Offeror from sources other than the references provided.

The offeror shall provide recent and relevant past performance in the same or similar type of services for refuse collection services to U.S. military bases, ROK military bases or local commercial market. Recent past performance is within the last five (5) years from the issuance date of this solicitation. Relevant past performance are those that are the same or similar type of services.

The past performance will be evaluated for all offeror’s proposals by the Contract Specialist/Contracting Officer in the following manner:

(1) Review of the detailed explanation submitted by offerors demonstrating the relevance of the references to the requirements of the solicitation.

(2) References will be contacted by phone or email to verify contents in detail explanation and to determine record of compliance with contract requirements, accuracy of reports, technical and quality awards/certificates.

(3) The Government reserves the right to obtain past performance information from any reasonable source available, including Government database in order to evaluate past performance but is not obligated or compelled to consider all potential sources of past performance information..

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 (or “neutral”) past performance. In the context of acceptability/unacceptability, a neutral rating shall be considered “acceptable”

Past Performance Evaluation Ratings

FACTOR III. PRICE: Proposed price will be reviewed to determine if the estimate is complete and reasonable. The price proposals will be evaluated IAW FAR 15.404-1(b). The following applies to that evaluation.

(1) Completeness. The offeror shall complete the pricing information for all CLINs/Sub-CLINs identified for base period plus four (4) options (total five (5) years). Any underlying assumptions including proposed escalation rates between the 1st and subsequent periods shall be clearly explained.

(2) Price Reasonableness. Price should also reflect fair market value and be reasonable when compared to the independent Government estimate, current market prices for same or similar services and/or when compared among other technically acceptable offerors.

(3) Price is not scored. The Government will review the price proposal to determine the extent to which it is reasonable and consistent with the technical proposal. The lowest price for award purposes will be the combined total of the effective period of five (5) years from the date of award. Price must include all CLINs/Sub-CLINs as listed on the Price Schedule. The Government intends to evaluate proposals and award a contract without discussions. Therefore, Offerors are instructed that submitted proposals should contain their best pricing.

As part of price evaluation, the Government will evaluate its option to extend services (FAR Clause 52.217-8 - Option to Extend Services) by adding one-half of the Offeror’s final option period prices to the Offeror’s total price. Thus, the Offeror’s total price for the purpose of evaluation will include the base period, 1st option, 2nd option, 3rd option, 4th option, and one-half of the 4th option. Offerors are required only to price the base and four (4) options. Offerors shall not submit a price for the potential one-half year extension of services period.

(5) The Government will evaluate the offeror's price in accordance with FAR 15.404-1, Proposal Analysis Techniques. Prices submitted in currenty other than United States Dollars (USD) shall be convered to USD using the Fiscal Year 2018 exchange rates on the closing date of this solicitation for evaluation purposes.
