Cascading Procedures The Government will award a Firm-Fixed Price contract to the responsible quoter using a tiered or cascading order of precedence. The evaluation of offers received in response to the solicitation will use a tiered or cascading order of precedence. Tiered evaluation of offers, also known as cascading evaluation of offers, is a procedure used in negotiated acquisitions when market research is inconclusive for justifying limiting competition to small business concerns or sub-categories of small business concerns. The contracting officer (1) Solicits offers from both small and other than small business concerns that will be evaluated in the following tier order: (a) service-disabled veteran-owned small business (SDVOSB); (b) veteran-owned small business (VOSB); (c) all other small business concerns; (d) other than small business. (5) If an award or a sufficient, number of awards cannot be made at the first tier, evaluation of quotes will proceed at the next lower tier until an award or a sufficient, number of awards can be made. The Government reserves the right to obtain past performance data from other sources than those identified by the offeror in evaluating past performance. This includes, but not limited to, the Past Performance Information Retrieval System (PPIRS), Federal Awardee Performance and Integrity Information System (FAPIIS), Electronic Subcontract Reporting System (eSRS), or other databases; interviews with Program Managers, Contracting Officers, and Fee Determining Officials. Offerors are reminded that both independent data and data provided by offerors in their quotes may be used by the Government to evaluate offeror past performance. However, the burden of providing thorough, complete, and current past performance information as requested in this paragraph remains with the offerors. All past performance comments received will be taken into account and could affect the overall rating. The overall past performance evaluation is a subjective decision based on the whole of all data received. 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 may not be evaluated favorably or unfavorably on past performance. Therefore, the offeror shall be determined to have unknown past performance. In the context of acceptability/unacceptability, unknown shall be considered acceptable. Contact Information. The Offeror shall provide a contact list (with phone numbers, fax numbers, mailing addresses, email addresses, etc.) including the name and title of the company/division point of contact regarding decisions made with respect to your proposal and who can obligate your company contractually. Also, identify those individuals authorized to negotiate with the Government on behalf of your company. 852.209-70 Organizational Conflicts of Interest (JAN 2008) 852.215-70 Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned and Veteran-Owned Small Business Evaluation Factors (JUL 2016) 852.252-70 Solicitation Provisions or Clauses Incorporated by Reference (JAN 2008) 852.270-1 Representatives of Contracting Officers (JAN 2008) The provision at FAR 52.212-2, Evaluation Commercial Items (OCTOBER 2014), applied to this acquisition.
