Quote shall include at least two references for similar services including the phone number, full address, and e-mail address. References will be checked. The Government will use its discretion to determine the sources of past performance information used in the evaluation, and the information may be obtained from references provided by the offeror, the agency�s knowledge of contractor performance, other government agencies or commercial entities, or past performance databases, and will be based on responsiveness, quality, and customer services. The following minimum information shall be provided within contractor submitted references: � Contract Number/Order Number � Date of Contract Award � Name and Address of the Government Agency or Commercial Entity � Contract Type � Annual Contract Cost � Period of Performance � Description of Work � Valid name, phone number and e-mail address of Contracting Officer, Contracting Officer�s Representative or Prime Contractor (if company was subcontracted). � In the description of work, quotes should provide a detailed explanation demonstrating the similarity of the contract, in terms of scope and size to the requirements of the solicitation for purposes of the relevancy review. Additionally, offerors should provide a brief description of work performed and results achieved; description of the methodology, tools, and processes utilized. In addition to the information requested above, offerors shall complete Blocks 1 through 4 on Page 1 of the Past Performance Questionnaire. The offeror is required to send the Past Performance Questionnaire to those Government and commercial activities provided by the offeror in their submission and e-mail the completed survey form directly to Diamond Turner at diamond.turner@noaa.gov by the DUE DATE OF THIS SOLICITATION. The Government reserves the right to consider past performance report forms received after the due date of the solicitation and to contact references for verification or additional information. Vendors are cautioned that the Government reserves the right to obtain information for use in the evaluation of past performance from any sources including sources outside of the Government. The Government may obtain whatever information it deems most relevant to the required effort by telephonic and/or written inquiry. This information may include SAM.gov information, or past performance information from any source. 6. If proposed subcontractor past performance is provided as part of the two (2) of its most relevant contracts or efforts and type of work to be done by the subcontractor on the solicitation requirement must be stated. The offeror�s submittal shall clearly detail the aspects of the work in the solicitation that the subcontractor is proposed to perform. A Past Performance example which does not clearly detail the aspects of the work in the solicitation that the subcontractor is proposed to perform will not be evaluated. If the prime offeror or intended subcontractor/partner submits a past performance example in which it served as a subcontractor, the prime/sub/partner shall clearly detail the work that it performed and the size (dollar value) of that subcontracted work only. A Past Performance example that does not differentiate between the overall contract effort and the subcontractor effort will not be evaluated. Subcontractor performance (either the vendor own subcontractor experience or proposed subcontractor�s experience) of major or critical aspects of this requirement will be considered the same as prime contractor past performance information for the vendor. Failure of offerors to provide the required information and level of specificity will result in the contract reference not being evaluated. �THE GOVERNMENT DOES NOT ACCEPT RESPONSIBILITY FOR NON-RECEIPT OF QUOTES. IT IS THE CONTRACTOR�S RESPONSIBILITY TO REQUEST AND RECEIVE A CONFIRMATION OF THE QUOTE RECEIPT�. FAR 52.212-2 Evaluation- Commercial Products and Commercial Services (Nov 2021) Applies to this acquisition. Offers will be evaluated based on price and the factors set forth in paragraph (a). The Government will award a contract resulting from this solicitation to the responsible offeror whose offer conforming to the solicitation will be most advantageous to the Government, price and other factors considered. The evaluation will consider the Non-Price Technical Solution (Technical Approach and Past Performance) to be significantly more important than price. However, as quotes are determined to be more equal in the non-price evaluation factor, price becomes more important and may become the determining factor for award. If, at any stage of the evaluation, all vendors are determined to have submitted equal, or virtually equal, Non-Price Technical Solutions, price could become the factor in determining which vendor will receive the award. The Government intends to evaluate the quotes and award a purchase order based on the Offeror�s initial quote; therefore, the Offeror�s initial quote should contain the Offeror�s best terms from a Non-Price Technical Solution and price standpoint. The Government reserves the right not to award a purchase order depending on the quality of the quote(s) submitted and the availability of funds. Furthermore, the Government may waive informalities and minor irregularities or omissions in quotes received. The Government may make award to other than the lowest-priced Offeror or the Offeror with the highest technical rating if the Contracting Officer determines that to do so would result in the best value to the Government. The Government will not make an award at a significantly higher overall price to achieve only slightly superior performance capability. (a) The Government will award a contract resulting from this solicitation to the responsible offeror whose offer conforming to the solicitation will be most advantageous to the Government, price and other factors considered. Paragraph (a) is hereby completed as follows: Evaluation factors are listed in order of importance and all factors are more important than price. 1.Technical Approach and Capability. Offeror must be Kubota certified and an authorized Kubota reseller. Provide a capability statement that includes either certification of mechanics or statement of capability stating offeror is a Kubota Certified Facility/Reseller. 2.Price. The Government will evaluate the price quote for completeness and reasonableness in relation to the RFQ requirements. Quoted prices must be entirely compatible with the Non-Price Technical Solution. The Government intends to award a trade-off, single firm fixed-price purchase order on an all or none basis with payment terms of Net 30. (b) 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.
