The CCR can be accessed at Internet address: www.ccr.gov/. C onfirmation of CCR registration will be validated prior to awarding a contract. Evaluation Factors: Technical Capability, Past Performance, and Price. Technical Capability and Past Performance, when combined, are significantly more important than Price. Provide the following information with your offer: 1. Technical Capability. If providing an equal, please comply with FAR Clause 52.211-6, Brand Name or Equal. NOTE: Statements that the offeror understands, can or will comply with all specifications , or statements paraphrasing the specifications or parts thereof, or phrases such as standard procedures will be used or well known techniques will be used will be considered insufficient. Insufficient explanations of how your company will comply with the above of this solicitation may cause your quote to receive a MARGINAL or UNSATISFACTORY rating. 2. Past Performance. Vendors are required to provide Past Performance Questionnaires (attachments to this solicitation) to two firms/entities for which they are currently or have recently provided the same or similar supplies and/or equipment. Provide with your quote, the company names, telephone numbers, and points of contact that will provide the completed questionnaires for your quote. If a vendor provide s more than two past performance references, the Contracting Officer will consider only the first two listed references in the award decision. It is the vendors responsibility to ensure past performance references submit completed questionnaires directly to the Great Plains Regional Contracting Office (see below) by the solicitation closing date and time. The Contracting Officer may also consider any additional past performance information that is available to the Government. Vendors are reminded that w hile the Government may elect to consider data obtained from other sources, the burden of providing thorough and complete past performance information rests with the vendor. 3. Price. 4. Award will be on an all or none basis. Evaluation Process: All quo tes will be evaluated in accordance with the following criteria: 1. Each vendor will be evaluated on its overall Past Performance under existing or prior contracts for the same or similar supplies and/or equipment as well as Technical Capability. Pricin g will be evaluated to determine value offered for the price and the extent to which it is fair and reasonable in terms of the Governments requirement. The Government reserves the right to evaluate quoted prices on the basis of price realism and will con sider quoted prices as an indication of understanding the scope and complexity of the Governments requirement. 2. The award decision will be based on the Best Value offered to the Government and not solely on price and price related factors. In making the award decision, the Contracting Officer will consider the evaluated rating of all factors. 3. Technical Capability and Past Performance are equal in importance. Technical Capability and Past Performance, when combined, are significantly more importan t than Price. Price could become the determinative selection factor if the quality of quotes is determined to be essentially equal, or if a quote deemed superi or in technical quality is determined not to be worth the high price premium. The trade-off between technical merit and price could result in awarding to other than the low offeror.
