(End of Addendum to 52.212-1) 52.252-1 Solicitation Provisions Incorporated by Reference (http://farsite.hill.af.mil/); 252.212-7000 Offeror Representations and CertificationsCommercial Items. 52.212-2 Evaluation-Commercial Items: (a) The Government will award a contract resulting from this solicitation to the responsible offeror whose offer conforming to the solicitation will be most advantageous to the Government, price and other factors considered. The following factors shall be used to evaluate offers: Factor 1. Delivery Factor 2. Past Performance Factor 3. Price In evaluating proposals for award, Delivery & Past Performance are equal in importance and are the most important factors. Deliver & Past performance when combined, are significantly more important than Price. ALTHOUGH PRICE IS NOT FORMALLY SCORED, IT IS IMPORTANT AND CANNOT BE IGNORED. THE DEGREE OF ITS IMPORTANCE WILL INCREASE WITH THE DEGREE OF EQUALITY OF THE PROPOSALS IN RELATION TO EVALUATION FACTORS. (c) A written notice of award or acceptance of an offer, mailed or otherwise furnished to the successful offeror within the time for acceptance specified in the offer, shall result in a binding contract without further action by either party. Before the offer's specified expiration time, the Government may accept an offer (or part of an offer), whether or not there are negotiations after its receipt, unless a written notice of withdrawal is received before award. (End of provision52.212-2); Addendum to 52.212-2: EVALUATION FACTORS The Government will award a fixed priced contract resulting from this solicitation to the offeror whose offer conforming to the solicitation will b the most advantageous to the Government, considering the evaluated rating of all technical factors, price and related factors. A single contract will be awarded against this solicitation. Except communications conducted for the purpose of minor clarifications, the Government intends to evaluate proposals and award a contract without discussions. Therefore, each initial offer should contain the offerors best terms from a pricing and technical standpoint. However, the Government reserves the right to conduct discussions if it is later determined by the Contracting Officer to be necessary. If discussions become necessary following the initial evaluation, the competitive range may be limited. The Contracting Officer may determine that the number of proposals that would otherwise remain in the competitive range exceeds the number at which an efficient competition can be conducted. The competitive range may be limited to the greatest number of proposals that will permit an efficient competition among the most highly rated proposals. Award will be based on the best overall value offered in meeting the requirements with acceptable risk at a fair and reasonable price and will not necessarily be made to the low offeror. The source selection decision will be based on the best value offered. A proposal that is unrealistic in terms of technical quality or price will be deemed reflective of an inherent lack of technical competence or indicative of failure to comprehend the complexity and risks of the contractual requirements. Such proposals may be determined as marginal or unsatisfactory. For a proposal to be considered for award, a rating of satisfactory or better must be achieved on all factors and sub-factors. DELIVERY (Factor 1) is rated. Offerors proposed dates are outlined to meet the desired delivery date (1-30 September 2010) & will be used to evaluate the delivery schedule. EXCELLENT- The offerors delivery date of 1 Sept 2010 demonstrates a superior understanding of the Governments desire to meet the delivery scheduled requirements and significantly exceeds performance or capability standards. SATISFACTORY- The offerors proposed alternate delivery date ranges within the first week of the desired delivery date and demonstrates an adequate understanding of the delivery scheduled requirements and the approach meets all performance or capability standards. MARGINAL- The offerors proposed alternate delivery date ranges within the second week of the desired delivery date and demonstrates a marginal understanding of the delivery scheduled requirements. UNSATISFACTORY- The Offerors proposed alternate delivery date ranges after the third week of September 2010 therefore fails to demonstrate a basic understanding of the requirements and the approach fails to meet performance or capability standards. PAST PERFORMANCE (Factor 2): Each offerors Past Performance will be evaluated and assigned an adjectival rating. The following rating scheme for Performance Risk will be used: Low Risk, Moderate Risk, High Risk and Unknown Risk. PERFORMANCE RISK: Past and Performance Analysis provides insight into an offerors probability of successfully completing the solicitation requirements stated in the solicitation based on the offerors performance record on recent, relevant, and similar contract efforts. The number and severity of problems, the demonstrated effectiveness of corrective actions taken and the overall performance record are to be taken into consideration. RISKDEFINITION Low RiskLittle doubt exists, based on the Offerors performance record, that the Offeror can perform the proposed effort. Moderate RiskSome doubt exists, based on the Offerors performance record, that the Offeror can perform the proposed effort. High RiskSignificant doubt exists, based on the Offerors performance record, that the Offeror can perform the proposed effort. Unknown RiskLittle or no relevant performance record identifiable; equates to an unknown risk rating having no positive or negative evaluation significance. PRICE (Factor 3) is not rated. Price and cost analysis techniques will be used to evaluate an offerors proposed price. Price will be evaluated for realism, value offered for the price, and extent, which it is fair and reasonable in terms of the Governments requirement. Evaluation of Proposal for Award In evaluating proposals for award, Factors 1 and 2 are most important & are equal in importance. Factors 1 & 2 when combined, are significantly more important than Factor 3. Evaluation Factors. Factor 1. Delivery Schedule Factor 2. Past Performance Factor 3. Price Evaluation of past performance will be subjective based on consideration of all relevant facts and circumstances. The currency, content, general trends, and relevance of the information in contactors performance will be considered. The Government may also consider and use any additional information from its own files, databases, references provided by the offeror, or from any source, as it deems appropriate. The Government may contact references to verify information provided and may contact other sources known to the Government. If adverse past performance information is obtained, the respective point of contact will be contacted to obtain additional information about the circumstances surrounding the situation. Offerors will be given an opportunity to address unfavorable reports of past performance to which the offeror has not had a previous opportunity to respond. The offerors response, or lack thereof, will be taken into consideration. If an offeror does not have a past performance history relating to the solicitation, the offeror will not be evaluated favorable or unfavorably, and a neutral rating will be given for this factor.
