Evaluation factors other than price, when combined, are approximately equal to price. The following factors shall be used to evaluate offers: Factor 1 - Price All offerors must submit a firm fixed price quote with pricing breakdown, for a turn-key office relocation from Bldg. 40 to Bldg. 41T at Morris Air National Guard base. Additional scope details are provided in the Office Relocation PWS, located in Attachment 6. NOTE: The 162d Wing is subject to 50% AZ Transaction Privilege Tax. Please include applicable taxes in quote. The pricing breakdown must be all inclusive, to include, but not limited to: categories of labor, hourly labor rates and quantities, material costs, equipment costs, transportation with fuel, incidentals and subcontracting if applicable. The Government reserves the right to request subcontractor pricing if applicable for consideration in price evaluations. Subcontractor pricing if requested, must be broken down in the same fashion as prime contractor price breakdown. Offeror’s quotes will be evaluated for price reasonableness, accuracy and/or feasibility. Elements of pricing will be reviewed against the scope of work to determine whether pricing is reasonable and appropriate for the work to be performed; reflect a clear understanding of the requirements and consistent with the unique methods of performance described in the offeror’s technical narrative. Factor 2 – Technical - This factor will be evaluated to assess the probability of successful performance as they relate to relocation services, that either meets or exceeds the government’s requirements as defined in the PWS. The offeror must submit a technical narrative (max 5 pages not including cover sheet) with their quote addressing the sub-factors below: Sub-factor 1 - Technical Approach - For the Bldg. 40-41T relocation, summarize how the proposed work will be completed in a manner consistent with industry standards and/or practices which also satisfy PWS requirements. The offeror must demonstrate a clear understanding of the nature and the scope of the work required. Failure to provide realistic, reasonable and complete information may reflect a lack of understanding of the requirements and may result in a determination that the vendor is technically unacceptable. Sub-factor 2 - Technical Capability – Provide the names of the key personnel, positions/titles. Optionally, include years of relevant experience and/or certifications. Provide a summary of local resources available (i.e. equipment and vehicles on hand). The evaluation will consist of assessing the Offeror’s approach and capabilities as demonstrated in the technical narrative, for accomplishing tasks outlined in the PWS. The offeror must demonstrate a clear understanding of the nature and the scope of the work required. The technical narrative must demonstrate an appropriate level of personnel and resources necessary to accomplish the requirements listed in the PWS. This factor will be rated as Acceptable or Unacceptable. Acceptable is defined as offeror clearly meets the minimum requirements of the solicitation. Unacceptable is defined as the offeror does not clearly meet the minimum requirements of the solicitation. Failure to provide realistic, reasonable and complete information may reflect a lack of understanding of the requirements and may result in a determination that the vendor is technically unacceptable.

The Offeror shall then receive one rating as an overall confidence assessment describing how well the Offeror is expected to perform given the Offeror’s performance history. More-recent and more-relevant past performance information shall have greater weight in the Offeror’s overall confidence assessment relative to less-recent and less-relevant information. Performance Confidence Assessments Rating Method Adjectival Rating Description Substantial Confidence Based on the offeror’s recent/relevant performance record, the Government has a high expectation that the offeror will successfully perform the required effort.
