BASIS FOR AWARD The Government will award one (1) Award to the offeror whose quote provides the best value to the Government using a tradeoff process. Best Value”: The expected outcome of the acquisition that, in the Government’s estimation, provides the greatest overall benefit in response to the requirement. 2. “Tradeoff”: The Government may accept other than the lowest priced Quotation, when the decision is consistent with the evaluation criteria and the Government reasonably determines that the perceived benefits of a higher priced Quotation warrant the increase in price. The Government has established Technical and Price as the evaluation factors. The order of importance is as follows: Factor 1: Technical is more important than Price. 2. Factor 2: The Total Price is not expected to be the controlling criteria for this selection. However, Total Price evaluation is still important in this acquisition and Price must be able to be determined fair and reasonable. The importance of Factor 2 - Total Price will increase as the difference between Factor 1 - Technical decreases. 3. In accordance with Far 52.212-1(g), quotations are intended to be evaluated and the award made, without discussions, unless discussions are determined necessary. 4. Total Price is calculated as the sum of all CLINs added together. EVALUATION CRITERIA The Government will evaluate Quotations as follows: FACTOR 1: TECHNICAL: The Government will evaluate Factor 1, Technical, using the following criteria: Demonstration of a clear understanding of the requirements and deliverables, and on the Offeror’s expressed ability to successfully perform. The offerors will be evaluated based on responses to three criteria: Technical Expertise/ Experience, Project Team, and Technical Approach. Specific/ specialized knowledge/ skills related to: Hydraulics Pneumatics Electronics Automation PLC Mechanical Aptitude If the Quotation sufficiently addresses the RFQ Questionnaire and demonstrates a clear understanding and ability to perform the requirement, then the Government will accept without further explanation that the contractor can perform all PWS requirements. The Quoter may discuss non-critical requirements. However, if the Quoter provides statements which cause the Government to question the Quoter’s ability to perform those non-critical requirements, such statements will be evaluated accordingly. Technical will be rated using the following standards in Table 1: Technical Ratings Outstanding: This rating is only available to those that have attended the site visit in addition to the following: Quotation meets requirements and indicates a thorough level of expertise and an understanding of the requirements. Quotation indicates an exceptional approach and understanding of the requirements and contains multiple strengths. Established team has an extensive background in explosive contaminated facility remediation to include utilizing remote operated waterjet segmentation. Quotation includes detailed previous project experience in the major contract requirements. Proposal includes a well thought-out proposed technical approach to each of the project’s phases. Acceptable: Quotation meets requirements and indicates an adequate level of expertise and an understanding of the requirements. Established team has an extensive background in hazardous facility remediation and the major contract requirements including explosives familiarity, although little to no experience in remote operated explosive contaminated facility remediation specifically. Proposed technical approach is adequately addressed, but not specific. Strengths and Weaknesses are offsetting or will have little or no impact on task order performance. Risk of unsuccessful performance is moderate. Unacceptable: Quotation does not meet requirements and contains one or more deficiencies. Team did not complete mandatory Site Visit per RFQ requirements. Appropriate team has not been established, or established team does not have sufficient experience to complete the project tasks without significant government oversight. Risk of unsuccessful performance is high. If this criterion is rated as Unacceptable, additional factors will not be evaluated and the Quotation is not eligible for award. Definitions Strength Strength is defined as a particular aspect of the Quoter’s submission that has merit or exceeds specified performance capability requirements in a way that will be advantageous to the Government during task order performance. Deficiency Deficiency is defined as any material failure of a Quotation to meet a Government requirement or a combination of weaknesses in a Quotation that increases the risk of unsuccessful task order performance to an unacceptable level. FACTOR 2: PRICE The Government will evaluate Factor 2 – Price, for the following: Compliance: Quotations will be evaluated for compliance based upon the submission requirements contained in the solicitation. Price Reasonableness: The Quoter’s Price Quotation will be evaluated to determine reasonableness. In accordance with FAR 31.201-3, a price is reasonable if, in its nature and amount, does not exceed that which would be incurred by a prudent person in conduct of competitive business. Total Price is calculated as the sum of all CLINs added together.
