The full text of the solicitation provision and clauses can be accessed electronically at http://acquisition.gov. (9) The Government intends to evaluate offers in accordance with FAR 52.212-2. A single Fixed Priced contract will be awarded without discussions to the proposal that conforms to the solicitation requirements and presents the Best Value to the government as determined by the evaluation criteria. BEST VALUE will be based on an integrated assessment by a technical evaluation panel of all areas and factors set forth herein with due consideration to the relative order of importance. Therefore the initial offer should contain the offeror’s best terms from a technical and price standpoint. The Government will award a contract resulting in a single contract to the responsible offeror whose offer, conforming to the solicitation requirements, is most advantageous and offers the best value to the Government. The Government does reserve the right of such flexibility in evaluation to ensure award of a contract in its best interest. All evaluation factors will be adjectivally rated. When combined, the non-priced factors are significantly higher when compared to price. However, when all of the most highly rated proposals are equal on non-price-factors, price will be controlling factor. Offeror proposals shall have three separate sections: Section 1 will include the response to Technical Expertise and Management Approach; Section 2 will contain the response Past Performance information; and Section 3 will contain the proposed Price information. Total contract price will be evaluated for reasonableness in accordance with FAR 15.404-1b. Evaluation of the option periods shall not obligate the Government to exercise the options. The following factors listed in relative order of importance shall be used to evaluate offers: 1) Technical Expertise: This section shall not exceed 20 pages. The offeror’s proposed approach shall include adequate documentation to clearly demonstrate a thorough understanding of the SOW requirements. Discuss specific methods, technology and techniques for successful completion of tasks to satisfy the requirement in a quality and timely manner. An executable approach with detailed discussion of technical skills and capabilities to develop, support, maintain, upgrade or enhance electronic database software systems. Define and recommend solutions critical to the development, implementation and maintenance of the required system. The contractor shall furnish as part of their proposal all descriptive information necessary for the government to determine whether the service meets the minimum specifications for storing and retrieval of regulatory variance information. This includes specialized knowledge, experience, resources, and knowledge of commercial motor carrier safety, federal motor carrier safety regulations, hazardous material transportation regulations, rulemakings, codified regulations, and regulatory interpretations. The government will evaluate the resumes of any proposed key personnel to determine extent to which they possess the necessary skills to perform the requirement. 2) Management Approach: This section shall not exceed 20 pages. The approach should clearly demonstrate thorough understanding of requirement; sufficiently detailed quality control measures to recognize substandard performance, inherent risks and challenges, and document corrective actions; and demonstrate clear understanding of the contract objectives. The proposal shall provide sufficient information to adequately evaluate overall design plans, schedule, software development timetables, testing plans and deployment plans. Demonstrate capability to manage and staff the project, and has knowledge, experience and resources to independently track and acquire updates to regulatory information. 3) Past Performance. The Past Performance data shall not exceed 20 pages. Include three references consisting of the contract number, the agency or company for which the work was performed, contract value, a description of work performed, and the name of the Contracting Officer and Technical Representative to be contacted with their address, telephone, email address, and facsimile numbers. The FMCSA reserves the right to utilize past performance information in conducting the evaluation other than the information submitted with the proposal received. Current, accurate, complete information MUST be provided to contact each reference. This should include contract number, point of contact, phone number and email address for each contact. 4) Price: Offerors proposed price shall include a calculated total overall price and subtotal for each option period. Subcontract cost shall be listed separately for each subcontractor and indicate the tasks within the SOW that each will perform. The total evaluated price will be the sum of all CLINS for the entire potential contract period with option years. The price proposal shall clearly demonstrate a thorough understanding of the objectives and requirements. The Government may determine that an offer is unacceptable if the prices are significantly unbalanced. Price proposals will be analyzed for reasonableness and completeness. The Government will review the offeror’s proposed prices to ensure that they are consistent with the solicitation requirements. The Government will award the contract to the responsible offeror whose proposal is considered to have offered the best overall value on the basis of its offer and capability to perform the work. Accordingly, the Government may award any resulting contract to other than the offeror proposing the lowest price or other than the offeror achieving the highest adjectival rating. (10)Offerors shall include a completed copy of the FAR 52-212-3 Offeror Representations and Certifications. An offeror shall complete only paragraph (b) of this provision if the offeror has completed the annual representations and certifications electronically at http://orca.bpn.gov. If an offeror has not completed the annual representations and certifications electronically at the ORCA website, the offeror shall complete only paragraphs (c) through (m) of this provision.
