Offerors interested in responding to this requirement must provide a quote for the requested services outlined in the attached statement of work. A single firm fixed-priced (FFP) option-year purchase order will be awarded. The Government intends to award a single firm-fixed priced (FFP) option-year purchase order, with a base period of one (1) year and four (4) one (1) year options, to the offeror representing the best value to the Government based on the evaluation factors listed below. Evaluation factors are listed in order of importance, with most important listed first. The Government will conduct a trade-off between price and non-price factors. The Government is not required to award to the lowest priced offeror or the highest technically rated offeror. The Government reserves the right to award without discussions. Evaluation Factors (listed in order of importance): 1. Technical Approach - Offerors are required to submit their technical approach to meeting the requirements outlined in the statement of work. Offerors must display a clear understanding of the requirements. Quotes submitted by offerors who fail to demonstrate a clear understanding of the requirement may not be considered further. Quotes submitted by offerors that include the following statement, or similar, without any supporting information, may be determined to not have a clear understanding of the requirement and may not be considered: “The offeror understands the requirements and the submitted quote has met all stated objectives.” 2. Price - Offerors must include all applicable costs in their quote. The quoted total price, inclusive of options, will be the evaluated price. For price analysis purposes, offerors must provide a price breakout of the applicable costs. The resultant award will be a firm fixed price (FFP) option-year order. 3. Corporate Experience - Offerors are required to provide a narrative of their corporate experience in providing maintenance for centrifuges and gamma counters. 4. Past Performance - The Government shall evaluate the offeror’s present and past performance on similar tasks within the past three years.

Offerors must clearly state in their quote if they do not have at least two (2) past performance references. Failure to provide this information may render an offeror’s quote non-responsive and may not be considered for award. A strong history of relevant past performance may be more advantageous to the government than a less relevant record of favorable performance.
