The following factors shall be used to evaluate offers: ( 1) PRICE (2) PAST PERFORMANCE Past performance will be approximately equal to cost or price. (b) Options. The government will evaluate offers for award purposes by adding the total price for all options to the total price for the basic requirement. The government 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). (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. ADDENDUM TO FAR 52.212-2: BASIS FOR CONTRACT AWARD : This is a competitive best value source selection in which competing offerors past performance history will be evaluated on a basis approximately equal to price. By submission of its offer with the instructions provided in clause FAR 52.212-1, Instructions To Offerors, the offeror accedes to the terms of this model contract. All acceptable offers shall be treated equally except for their prices and performance records. Failure to meet a requirement may result in an offer being determined unacceptable. Offerors must clearly identify any exception to the solicitation terms and conditions and provide competed accompanying rationale. The evaluation process shall proceed as follows: 1. Price Evaluation. Initially, the government shall rank all offers by price, including any option prices (if applicable). An offeror's proposed price will be determined by multiplying the quantities indentified in Section B by the proposed unit price for each Contract Line Item Number or Subcontract Line Item Number to confirm the extended amount of each. The price evaluation will document reasonableness of the proposed total evaluated price (TEP). The contractor shall return a completed "Offeror Schedule" (Attachment Two (2)) of the solicitation to aid the contracting activity in the formulation of the total evaluated price (TEP). NOTE: Extension of services option. The government will evaluate offers for award purposes by adding the total price for all options to the total price for the basic year requirement, as described below: (1) Estimated total amount of all options specified in the schedule under the authority of contract clause, FAR 52.217-9 "Option to Extend the Term of the Contract" will be added to the basic year requirement. (2) Evaluation of options to be performed in accordance with this clause will not obligate the government to exercise the option(s). (3) If exercised, the extension of services option (FAR 52.217-8) will be priced at the prior base or option year performed price with the only adjustment allowed being those changes to the applicable Department of Labor wage determination and/or Collective Bargaining Agreement on contract at the time the option is exercised. 2. Performance Confidence Assessment. Using questionnaires and other sources, the contracting officer shall seek performance information based on (1) the references provided by the offeror and (2) data independently obtained from other government and commercial sources. Recent performance in contracts within the last three (3) years from the date of issuance of this solicitation. Performance Confidence assessment will be based on the contractor's ability to maintain and repair vertical transportation equipment. 3. In determining relevancy for individual contracts, consideration will be given to the effort, or portion of the effort, being proposed by the offeror, teaming partner, or subcontractor whose contract is being reviewed and evaluated. Higher relevancy will be assessed for contracts that are most similar to the effort, or portion of the effort, for which that contractor is being proposed. The government is not bound by the offeror's opinion of relevancy. The following relevancy definitions apply: PAST PERFORMANCE RELEVANCY RATINGS Rating Description VERY RELEVANT Present/past performance effort involved essentially the same scope and magnitude of the effort and complexities this solicitation requires RELEVANT Present/past performance effort involved essentially the same scope and magnitude of the effort and complexities this solicitation requires SOMEWHAT RELEVANT Present/past performance effort involved some of the scope and magnitude of the effort and complexities this solicitation requires NOT RELEVANT Present/past performance effort involved little or none of the scope and magnitude of the effort and complexities this solicitation requires The government reserves the right to seek information on higher priced offerors if none of the lower priced offerors receive a "Substantial Confidence" rating. The purpose of the past performance evaluation is to allow the government to assess the offeror's ability to perform the effort described in the solicitation, based on the offeror's demonstrated present and past performance. The assessment process will result in an overall performance confidence assessment rating of Substantial Confidence, Satisfactory Confidence, Limited Confidence, No Confidence, or Unknown Confidence as defined below. Past performance regarding predecessor companies, sister or subsidiary companies of the same parent company, key personnel who have relevant experience, or sub-contractors that will perform major or critical aspects of the requirement will not be rated as highly as past performance information for the principal offeror. Offerors with no relevant past or present performance history or the offeror's performance record is so limited that no confidence assessment rating can be reasonably assigned shall receive the rating "Unknown Confidence", meaning the rating is treated neither favorably nor unfavorably. PERFORMANCE CONFIDENCE ASSESSMENTS Rating Description SUBSTANTIAL CONFIDENCE Based on the offeror's performance record, the government has a high expectation that the offeror will successfully perform the required effort. SATISFACTORY CONFIDENCE Based on the offeror's performance record, the government has an expectation that the offeror will successfully perform the required effort. LIMITED CONFIDENCE Based on the offeror's performance record, the government has a low expectation that the offeror will successfully perform the required effort. NO CONFIDENCE Based on the offeror's performance record, the government has no expectation that the offeror will be able to successfully perform the required effort. UNKNOWN CONFIDENCE No performance record is identifiable or the offeror's performance record is so sparse that no confidence assessment rating can be reasonably assigned 4. In evaluating past performance, the government reserves the right to give greater consideration to information on those contracts deemed most relevant to the effort described in this solicitation. 5. If the lowest priced evaluated acceptable offer is judged to have a "Substantial Confidence", that offer represents the best value for the government and the evaluation process stops at this point. Award may be made to that offeror without further consideration of any other offers. 6. If the lowest price offeror is not judged to have a "Substantial Confidence", the next lowest price offeror will be evaluated and the process will continue (in order by price) until an offer is judged to have Substantial Confidence or until all offerors are evaluated. The Source Selection Authority shall then make an integrated assessment best value award decision. 7. Offerors are cautioned to submit sufficient information and in the format specified in the proposal preparation instructions to permit a meaningful assessment of past performance. Offerors may be asked to clarify certain aspects of their proposal or respond to adverse past performance information to which the offeror has not previously had an opportunity to respond. Adverse past performance is defined as past performance information that supports a less than satisfactory rating on any evaluation element or any unfavorable comments received from sources without a formal rating system. Communication conducted to resolve minor or clerical errors will not constitute discussions and the contracting officer reserves the right to award a contract without the opportunity for proposal revision. 8. The government intends to award a contract without discussions with respective offerors. The government, however, reserves the right to conduct discussions if deemed in its best interest. 9. Offeror Schedule- The offeror shall submit a completed copy of the attached offer schedule.
