EVALUATION CRITERIA: FAR 52.212-2-Evaluation-Commercial Items applies to this acquisition. The specific evaluation criteria in 52.212-2 paragraph (a) are as follows: Award will be based on competitive best value using FAR Part 12.6. Best value will be based on the lowest priced, technically acceptable offeror. Technical will be based on an acceptable or unacceptable basis. Once the proposal has been deemed technically acceptable, evaluation factors will be past performance and price. Past performance will also be based on an acceptable or unacceptable basis. a. Technical. Technical acceptability will be determined by evaluation of technical factors using the two sub-factors below on an Acceptable or Unacceptable basis. A rating of Acceptable will be assigned if the proposal clearly meets the minimum requirements of the solicitation. An Unacceptable rating will be assigned if the proposal does not clearly meet the minimum requirements of the solicitation. An Unacceptable rating for either of the two technical sub-factors constitutes an Unacceptable rating for the technical factor. Sub-Factor 1 - Quality Control Plan (QCP): The QCP, submitted with the proposal, will be evaluated to ensure the offeror's plan clearly demonstrates the capability and capacity for appropriate, efficient and effective execution of quality control. At a minimum, the plan shall provide a description of the quality control methods and procedures to be used. The plan should address procedures to identify, prevent, and correct deficiencies in performance regarding the Service Summary (SS) items. The plan shall specifically address strategy to provide quality workmanship, continual process improvement and correction of deficiencies as appropriate. Sub-Sub-Factor 2 - Manning Matrix. A manning matrix, submitted with the proposal, will be evaluated to ensure the offeror's approach clearly demonstrates an understanding of the requirements of the PWS. Contractor shall provide a proposed manpower matrix outlining all proposed manning that shall be utilized in performance of the required services. Contractor shall provide a position description and grade element for each skill classification for those positions considered to be key personnel. Descriptions shall be based upon the requirements of the PWS and grade definitions as listed in the most recent department of Labor Occupational Standards books. Position descriptions shall carefully and fully detail the duties and responsibilities of each position. Proposed manpower shall clearly address how voids created by releasing and hiring employees, excess sick leave, excess annual leave, etc., is programmed to be covered. The manning matrix shall indicate whether full, part-time or on-call status employees will be used. b. Past performance. Past performance shall be used as an evaluation factor within the LPTA process in accordance with FAR 12. Past performance will be evaluated on an Acceptable or Unacceptable basis. The Government will accomplish evaluation of the past performance factor by determining recency and relevancy of past performance information received from questionnaires, from PPIRs reports if applicable, and other sources that may be available to the Government. Recency is defined as work accomplished within 36 months of solicitation issue date. Relevancy is defined as work performance consistent with the scope and magnitude of this acquisition as defined in the PWS. Past performance will be evaluated on an Acceptable or Unacceptable basis. Past performance will be assigned a rating of Acceptable if, based on the offeror's performance record, the Government has a reasonable expectation that the offeror will successfully perform the required effort, or the offeror's performance record is unknown. In the case of an offeror without a record of relevant past performance or for whom information on past performance is not available or so sparse that no meaningful past performance rating can be reasonably assigned, the offeror shall be determined to have unknown past performance. Unknown past performance will be considered "acceptable." Past performance will be rated as Unacceptable if, based on the offeror's performance record, the Government has no reasonable expectation that the offeror will be able to successfully perform the required effort. With their proposals, offerors shall submit a list of no more than five relevant contracts performed for Federal or commercial customers within the last 3 years, to include contract number, description of work, point of contact and contact information. Offerors will send Past and Present Performance Questionnaires (Attach 4) to these references. Completed questionnaires shall be submitted from the respondents directly to the Contracting Office. The final date for receipt of questionnaires will be the proposal due date. c. Price. Technically acceptable proposals with acceptable past performance will be ranked by total evaluated price and evaluated for price reasonableness using one or more of the techniques in FAR15.404-1. Normally, adequate price competition establishes a fair and reasonable price and that is expected to be the case (FAR 15.404-1(b)(2)(i)). The Government will add the total price for all options to the price for the basic requirement to determine the total evaluated price and may determine that an offer is unacceptable if the option prices are significantly unbalanced. Evaluation of options shall not obligate the government to exercise the option(s). FAR 52.217-8, Option to Extend Services, is included in the RFP and will be incorporated into the resultant contract; upon exercise, the clause will extend the terms and conditions of the contract period being extended at the rates specified in the contract, the evaluation of which have been included in the initial evaluation of the proposal (to include the base period plus all option periods) as demonstrated herein.
