This acquisition will be conducted using lowest price technically acceptable (LPTA) RFQ. The following factors shall be used to evaluate offers: 1. Price: The Government will evaluate quotations based on the total quoted price. Award will be made to the lowest-priced quotation that is otherwise determined acceptable under the non-price factors. 2 . Technical Acceptability: Technical Acceptability will be evaluated on an Acceptable/Unacceptable basis. To be rated Acceptable, the Quote must be rated as technically acceptable to be eligible for award. In order to be deemed technically acceptable, the proposal or quote must demonstrate a clear understanding of the requirement and a capability to meet all criteria in the PWS dated August 2026. Failure to provide sufficient information for the Government to determine compliance with the PWS may result in the quotation being rated Unacceptable. A quotation rated Unacceptable under Technical Acceptability is ineligible for award. 3. Past Performance: Past Performance will be evaluated on an Acceptable/Unacceptable basis Offerors shall submit at least two (2) recent and relevant past performance work references within the last two (2) years along with their proposal. (Provide Contract Number, Agency of performed work, brief description of the contracted services, and Agency’s Point of Contact (Email/Phone Number). References shall be submitted for the offeror/prime contractor. The Government may consider subcontractor past performance only as supplemental information, but subcontractor past performance will not substitute for the prime contractor’s record where the solicitation requires the prime contractor to hold the required licenses/registrations and perform as the licensed entity. For each reference, the quotation shall identify: the entity that performed the work; contract number, if applicable; customer/agency name; brief description of services performed; period of performance; and customer point of contact, including email address and phone number. Recent and relevant past performance should demonstrate successful performance of work similar in scope and nature to the required medical biohazard waste pickup, transportation, treatment, or disposal services. To be rated Acceptable, the past performance information shall demonstrate a reasonable expectation that the prime contractor will successfully perform the required effort. If the Government determines that the record does not provide a reasonable expectation of successful performance, the quotation will be rated Unacceptable. If the offeror/prime contractor has no record of relevant past performance, or if the information is unavailable or too limited to support a meaningful assessment, the quotation will be assigned a rating of Neutral/Unknown, which will be treated as Acceptable for award purposes. A quotation rated Unacceptable for Past Performance is ineligible for award. 4. Basis for Award Quotations will be evaluated in sequence beginning with the lowest-priced Offeror. If the lowest-priced quotation is determined to be Technically Acceptable (See Table A-1 listed below) and Acceptable for Past Performance, the Government may make award without further evaluation of higher-priced quotations. Only one award will be made under this solicitation. Table A-1. Technical Acceptable/Unacceptable Ratings Rating Description Acceptable Quote meets the requirements of the solicitation.
