(a) See Addendum 52.212-2

(b) Evaluation of Options. The Government will evaluate offers for award purposes by adding the total price for all options to the total price for the base period. The Offeror shall submit pricing for the base period and all option periods.

The Government may determine that an offer is unacceptable if the option prices are significantly unbalanced.

52.212-2 ADDENDUM – EVALUATION – COMMERCIAL ITEMS (DEC 2006)

The Government will award a contract resulting from this solicitation to the responsible offeror whose offer conforms to the solicitation. The following factors shall be used to evaluate offers:

• Factor I: Technical Capability

• Factor II: Past Performance

• Factor III: Price

Basis For Award

The Government will award a single award Firm Fixed Price (FFP), contract from this solicitation. This acquisition will utilize the Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) procedures in accordance with FAR 15.101-2. Technical tradeoffs will not be made and no additional credit will be given for exceeding acceptability. Award will be made on the basis of the lowest evaluated price of proposals meeting or exceeding the acceptability standards for non-price factors; demonstrated responsibility in accordance with the Federal Acquisition Regulation; and proposal which conforms to the solicitation requirements. The solicitation requirements include all stated terms, conditions, representation and certification, and other information required by this solicitation. The Government reserves the right to award without discussions. Therefore, each initial offer should contain the offeror’s best terms from a price and technical standpoint. However, the Government reserves the right to conduct discussions if determined necessary by the Contracting Officer. The initial offer should contain the Offeror’s best terms from a price and technical standpoint.

Technical acceptability will be evaluated on all proposals. Only those proposals determined to be technically acceptable, either initially or as a result of discussions, will be considered for award. Then, price will be evaluated and the proposal will be listed from lowest to highest price based on the total evaluated price and technical acceptability.

Award will be made to the lowest evaluated priced proposal meeting the acceptability standards for the non-priced factors.

Factor I – Technical Capability. The Government will evaluate the Offeror’s response to meeting all of the objectives in the Performance Work Statement (PWS). The Government will evaluate the completeness of the

Offeror’s concept and approach to address how the work will be performed in order to meet all requirements in the

PWS.

The Government will utilize the below technical rating system for the evaluation of all proposals against Factor 1 (Technical Capability). Table 1 below outlines the ratings and their descriptions:

Table 1. Technical Capability Acceptable/ Unacceptable Rating Method

Rating Description Acceptable Proposal meets the requirements of the solicitation Unacceptable Proposal does not mee the requirement of the solicitation

Factor II – Past Performance. Proposals will be evaluated to assess the degree of confidence the Government has in an Offeror’s ability to perform the contract successfully based on relevant past performance information.

Relevancy Ratings – There are two aspects to the past performance evaluation. The first is to evaluate the Offeror’s past performance to determine how relevant a recent effort accomplished by the Offeror is to the effort to be acquired through the source selection. Relevancy involves similar scope and magnitude of effort and complexities as those in the PWS. Recent is defined as a performance that is no older than 3-years from the date the solicitation is issued. In conducting a performance relevancy assessment, each Offeror shall be assigned one of the ratings in Table 2.

Table 2. Past Performance Relevancy Ratings Rating Definition

Relevant Present/past performance effort involved similar scope and magnitude of effort and complexities this solicitation requires.

Not Relevant Present/past performance effort involved little or none of the scope and magnitude of effort and complexities this solicitation requires.

Confidence Assessments – The second aspect of the past performance evaluation is to determine how well the contractor performed on the previous relevant contracts. The Government will review this past performance information and determine the quality and usefulness as it applies to performance confidence assessment. In conducting a performance confidence assessment, each Offeror shall be assigned one of the ratings in Table 3.

Table 3. Performance Confidence Assessments Rating Description

Substantial Confidence Based on the Offeror’s recent/relevant performance record, the Government has a high expectation that the Offeror will successfully perform the required effort.

Satisfactory Confidence Based on the Offeror’s recent/relevant performance record, the Government has a reasonable expectation that the Offeror will successfully perform the required effort.

Limited Confidence Based on the Offeror’s recent/relevant performance record, the Government has a low expectation that the Offeror will successfully perform the required effort.

No Confidence Based on the Offeror’s recent/relevant performance record, the Government has no expectation that the Offeror will be able to successfully 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.

a. The information presented in the Offeror’s past performance documentation, together with information from the performance survey and other sources available to the Government, e.g.: Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS) will be the basis of evaluation for this factor. The Government may use any and all available sources that allow for an accurate assessment of an Offeror’s past performance record.

b. In the event that an Offeror without a record of relevant past performance or for whom information on past performance is not available, the Offeror will not be evaluated favorably or unfavorably on past performance. In this event the Offeror shall receive a rating of Unknown Confidence (Neutral).

c. The Government may reject a proposal if it is found that the Offeror deleted, misrepresented, or withheld any information that might have a negative impact on its past performance record.

d. Offerors will be informed and will have the opportunity to address any adverse information that they have not been able to previously address.

Factor III - Price. The Government shall evaluate the offerors completed Section B pricing for each CLIN as required, and any supporting documentation applicable. The Offeror shall provide sufficient price information to allow the Contracting Officer to determine the price fair and reasonableness of the proposed prices. No ambiguities of inclusion, exclusion, or content shall be extended and lack of content or clarity with regard to pricing shall be considered as representing a “non-responsive” proposal.

a. The Government will evaluate proposals for award purposes by adding the total price for all options (If applicable), to the total price of the basic requirement. The Government may determine that an offer is unacceptable if the option prices are significantly unbalanced. Evaluation of options shall not obligate the Government to exercise the option(s).

b. Evaluation of Options. The Government will evaluate offers for award purposes by adding the total price for all options to the total price for the base period. The Offeror shall submit pricing for the base period and all option periods. The Government may determine that an offer is unacceptable if the option prices are significantly unbalanced. Evaluation of options shall not obligate the Government to exercise the option(s).

AWARD DECISION: The award decisions will be made as follows:

(1) Step One – determine Technical Acceptability. The technical evaluation will assess the offerors capability to satisfy the Government’s requirement. The Government will evaluate all technical capability proposals received by the required date/time. The Technical Capability factor will receive a rating of acceptable, or unacceptable. If any factor is rated “unacceptable”, the entire proposal is rendered technically unacceptable, and the proposal will be removed from further consideration. Only proposals deemed technically acceptable (either initially or as the result of discussions) will be considered for award. The ratings are defined in the following paragraphs.

(a) Acceptable: Proposal meets the requirements of the solicitation identified as the Technical Capability factor: Only those proposals determined acceptable, either initially or as a result of discussions, will be considered for award. Once deemed acceptable, all technical proposals are considered to be equal.

(b) Unacceptable: Proposal does not meet the requirements of the solicitation identified as the Technical Capability factor. Proposals with an unacceptable rating will not be considered for award.

(2) Step Two – Evaluate Price. The offerors’ Price proposal will be evaluated, for award purposes, based upon the total price proposed as annotated under Factor 3 - Price.

(3) Step Three – Award Decision. Award will be made to the lowest priced, technically acceptable offeror, subject to a positive responsibility determination in accordance with FAR Part 9 and conformance of the offeror’s proposal to the terms and conditions of the solicitation.
