(3) Brief synopsis of each contracts deliverable. Ratings Evaluations shall employ a letter grade method for rating evaluation factors Quoters proposals. Subsequent to and consistent with the narrative evaluation, which shall indicate a proposal's strengths, weaknesses, and risks, the appropriate letter grade rating shall be assigned to each factor. A proposal need not have all of the characteristics of a grade category in order to receive that grade rating; evaluators should use judgement to rate the proposal using these characteristics. Technical Factors. The narrative description of each grade follows, as appropriate for technical and management evaluation factors: A: An A proposal is characterized as follows: The proposal indicates an exceptionally thorough and comprehensive understanding of the requirement. In terms of the specific factor the proposal contains major strengths, exceptional features, or innovations that should substantially benefit the requiremnt. There are no weaknesses or deficiencies. The risk of unsuccessful contract performance is extremely low. B: A B proposal is characterized as follows: The proposal indicates a thorough understanding of the requirement. The proposal has major strengths and/or minor strengths. Weaknesses, if any, are minor and are more than offset by strengths. Risk of unsuccessful performance is very low. C: A C proposal is characterized as follows: The proposal indicates an adequate understanding of the requirement. There are few, if any, exceptional features to benefit the requirement. The risk of unsuccessful performance is low. Weaknesses are generally offset by strengths. D: A D proposal is characterized as follows: The proposal indicates a superficial or vague understanding of the requirement. The proposal has weaknesses that are not offset by strengths. The risk of unsuccessful contract performance is moderate. F: An F proposal is characterized as follows: The proposal indicates a lack of understanding of the requirement. Numerous weaknesses and deficiencies exist. The risk of unsuccessful performance is high. Past Performance. The narrative description of each grade for evaluation of past performance factors and subfactors follows: Neutral - The offeror lacks a record of relevant or available past performance history. There is no expectation of either successful or unsuccessful performance based on the offerors past performance record. A The offerors performance of previously awarded relevant contract(s) met contractual requirements and exceeded many to the Governments benefit. The assessed prior performance was accomplished with very few or very minor problems for which corrective actions taken by, or proposed to be taken by, the offeror were, or are expected to be, highly effective. Performance of completed contracts either was consistently of the highest quality or exhibited a trend of becoming so. The offerors past performance record leads to an extremely strong expectation of successful performance. B - The offerors performance of previously awarded relevant contract(s) met contractual requirements and exceeded some to the Governments benefit. The assessed prior performance was accomplished with some minor problems for which corrective actions taken by, or proposed to be taken by, the offeror were, or are expected to be, effective. Performance over completed contracts either was consistently of high quality or exhibited a trend of becoming so. The offerors past performance record leads to a strong expectation of successful performance. C - The offerors performance of previously awarded relevant contract(s) met contractual requirements. The assessed prior performance was accomplished with some problems for which corrective actions taken by, or proposed to be taken by, the contractor were, or are expected to be, for the most part effective. Performance over completed contracts was consistently of adequate or better quality or exhibited a trend of becoming so. The offerors past performance record leads to an expectation of successful performance. D - The offerors performance of previously awarded relevant contracts did not meet some contractual requirements. The assessed prior performance reflected some serious problems for which the contractor either failed to identify or implement corrective actions in a timely manner, or for which the corrective actions implemented or proposed to be implemented were, or are expected to be, only partially effective. Performance over completed contracts was consistently of mediocre quality or exhibited a trend of becoming so. The offerors past performance record leads to an expectation that successful performance might be difficult to achieve or that it can occur only with increased levels of Government management and oversight. F - The offerors performance of previously awarded relevant contract(s) did not meet most contractual requirements and recovery did not occur with the period of performance. The assessed prior performance reflected serious problem(s) for which the offeror either failed to identify or implement corrective actions or for which corrective actions, implemented, or proposed to be implemented, were, or are expected to be, mostly ineffective. Performance over completed contracts was consistently of poor quality or exhibited a trend of becoming so. The offerors past performance record leads to a strong expectation that successful performance will not be achieved or that it can occur only with greatly increased levels of Government management and oversight.
