All technically acceptable offers will be treated equally except for their prices and performance records. Failure to meet a requirement may result in an offer being determined technically unacceptable. Offerors must clearly identify any exception to the solicitation terms and conditions and provide complete accompanying rationale. The evaluation process shall proceed as follows: � � �(1) Technical Acceptability (Step 1) - Quotes must be rated as technically acceptable to be eligible for award. In order to be deemed technically acceptable, the following evaluation criteria must be met: Supply copies of current relevant Kern County Environment Health Department Grease Pumper Permit. An offeror will be deemed Unacceptable if current permit is not provided as specified herein. � � �(2) Price Evaluation (Step 2) - Next, offerors will be ranked according to overall price.

To reiterate for reasonableness the total evaluated price will be evaluated. All offers will be evaluated in accordance with FAR 52.219-4.� � � �(3) Past Performance (Step 3) - The Government will seek recent and relevant performance information on the lowest priced, technically acceptable offeror based on (1) the past efforts provided by the offeror, and (2) data independently obtained from other Government and commercial sources in order to determine the offeror�s Past Performance rating, which is comprised of two criteria: Recency and Relevancy. Relevant present/past performance effort involved similar scope and magnitude of 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 ""Very Recent and Very Relevant"" Past Performance rating. The purpose of the past performance evaluation is to assess the degree of confidence the Government has in the offeror's ability to supply the services that meet users' needs, based on the offeror's demonstrated record of performance. The assessment process will result in an overall Past Performance rating of �Not relevant�, �Recent and Relevant�, and �Very Recent and Very relevant� basis based up on receiving references provided within the Past Performance Volume. � �- �Not relevant� - no past performance information provided; past performance information received for service contracts of a type deemed not relevant or similar in nature to this solicitation; past performance information received for service contracts completed more than 3 years ago. � �- �Recent and Relevant� - Past performance information received for service contracts of a type deemed relevant or similar in nature to this solicitation; such as grease trap cleaning, used cooking oil collection, septic pumping, car wash sump cleaning, or related services completed within the last three years. � �- �Very Recent and Very Relevant� - Past performance information received for service contracts for as grease trap cleaning and used cooking oil collection services currently on-going or completed within the last year. � �If the offeror with the lowest proposed price who is evaluated as technically acceptable and is judged to have ""Very Recent and Very Relevant"" past performance rating is determined to be responsible, that offer represents the best value for the Government and the evaluation process stops at this point. Award shall be made to that offeror without further consideration of any other offers. � �If the offeror with the lowest proposed price who is evaluated as technically acceptable is not judged to have a ""Very Recent and Very Relevant"" past performance rating, the next lowest priced offer will be evaluated and the process will continue (in order by price) until an offeror is judged to have a ""Very Recent and Very Relevant"" past performance rating or until all offerors are evaluated. If no offerors are deemed to have a rating of ""Very Recent and Very Relevant"" past performance rating, the award shall be made to the lowest priced, technically acceptable offeror with a ""Recent and Relevant"" past performance rating.� � �Only one award will be made under this solicitation. Award will be conducted under the provisions of FAR Part 12, Commercial Items, and FAR 13, Simplified Acquisition Procedures. Submit only written offers via e-mail; oral offers will not be accepted.
