Response packages must include; Completed RFI Worksheet and specific detail to sufficiently address the competencies noted below. Indicated at the end of each area, in parentheses, is the relative importance of each area based on a 100 point scale. The following areas of focus will be used in determining qualifications among responses received: 1. Production Capability: The supplier must have the facilities to provide the equipment and services required. Suppliers must include information outlining their specific capability and capacity and/or their distribution network. A supplier demonstrates the ability to perform to consistently high standards through a record of excellent past performance. Quality may be demonstrated by previously providing high quality equipment and service, and by maintaining a documented quality system. Reliability may be demonstrated through consistent on-time performance. (Relative importance - 20) 2. Program Management and Service Capability: Suppliers must include information outlining the proposed contract management structure. Provide a narrative description of the proposed approach to assure quality control of the equipment and service provided and the timeliness of service, including a description of the transportation/distribution network.

(Relative importance - 30) 3. Current and Past Performance: The supplier must provide information and references to document a record of satisfactory performance on contracts of similar magnitude. Satisfactory performance as defined by the Postal Service is (1) quality of service, (2) timeliness of performance, and (3) customer satisfaction. Suppliers should provide proof of timeliness of performance (adherence to contract schedules, including the administrative aspects of performance). Suppliers should be able to prove good customer relations (a history of being reasonable and cooperative with customers; commitment to customer satisfaction, integrity and ethics). (Relative importance - 25) 4. Distribution Network/Service Capabilities: Suppliers must provide adequate information outlining their distribution network, including an explanation of the contractual relationship between the supplier and its distribution network.

Evidence of financial stability as indicated by the suppliers credit history will be one aspect of the evaluation.
