The Government will award a contract resulting from this solicitation to the responsible contractor whose quote conforming to the solicitation will be most advantageous to the Government, price and other factors considered. The following factors will be used to evaluate the quotes: 1) Factor #1, Performance Plan 2) Factor #2, Experience 3) Factor #3, Price In accordance with FAR 13.106-2(b)(3), the quotes will undergo a comparative evaluation to determine which response represents best as a whole. Quotes will be evaluated by performing a direct comparison of one offer with another in a uniform manner to determine which quote provides the government with its needs, as identified in the RFQ. The government reserves the right to consider a response that offers more than the minimum and select that response if it provides a benefit to the government. FACTOR 1 Performance Plan The quotes will be evaluated using the information submitted in the technical approach addressing the following elements: Performance Plan: Describe what processes and methods the contractor will use to meet the requirements in the PWS. The Government will assess the responses in Factor 1 to evaluate the capability and qualifications of the vendors. FACTOR 2 Experience Experience: The Government will assess the breadth of experience in providing relevant services. FACTOR 3 Price When submitting pricing information, the contractor will provide rates in accordance with the price schedule. The price will be evaluated for fair and reasonableness. For purposes of award of this Contract, the Government intends to evaluate the option to extend services under FAR 52.217-8 as follows: The evaluation will consider the possibility that the option can be exercised at any time and can be exercised in increments of one to six months, but not for more than a total of six months during the life of the contract. The evaluation will assume that the prices for any option exercised under FAR 52.217-8 will be those rates in effect under the contract each time an option is exercised under this clause. The evaluation will therefore assume that the addition of the price or prices of any possible extension or extensions under FAR 52.217-8 to the total price for the basic requirement and the total price for the priced options has the same effect on the total price of all proposals relative to each other, and will not affect the ranking of proposals based on price, unless, after reviewing the proposals, the Government determines that there is a basis for finding otherwise. This evaluation will not obligate the Government to exercise any option under FAR 52.217-8. The award will be made to the response most advantageous to the Government. Responses should contain your best terms, conditions. Submission of your response shall be received not later than 5:00pm PT on 08/17/22. Late submissions shall be treated in accordance with the solicitation provision at FAR 52.212-1(f). All questions regarding this solicitation must be emailed to krystal.zoufaly@va.gov no later than 5:00pm PT on 08/10/22. Verbal inquiries or questions will not be addressed or accepted.
