Technically acceptable is defined as the offeror's ability to meet ALL the requirements/salient characteristics identified in the Statement of Work and the offeror's demonstrated ability to perform the contract successfully through Past Performance. Only the lowest priced offer will be evaluated for technical acceptability. If the lowest priced offer is found NOT to be technically acceptable, then the next lowest priced offer will be evaluated. This process will continue until a technically acceptable offer is identified; not all offers will be evaluated. The following factors shall be used to evaluate offers: (1) Technical Capability and Understanding - Offerors shall address their proposed method for accomplishing the tasks outlined in the Statement of Work and a well-thought-out approach that is likely to yield the required results within the required time frame, in addition to their overall understanding of the requirements. The offeror shall submit photos (interior and exterior) of the type of school bus that they will use for the services. (2) Staffing Plan - The Offeror shall provide responsibilities and roles of all proposed Key Personnel for this contract. Offerors shall include information on a continuity plan to demonstrate the ability of the company to complete the Statement of Work throughout the entire period of performance with the necessary staff in the event that the key personnel leave the Offeror's employment. (3) Price - Only the lowest priced technically acceptable offer will be evaluated on Price. The Government will evaluate price for reasonableness and award a contract to the offeror with the lowest priced technically acceptable offer. Under LPTA, non-priced/cost factors are of equal importance and are evaluated on a pass/fail basis. There is no ranking of proposals based on non-price/cost factors and no higher value is earned by proposals exceeding the solicitation requirements. Offerors are required to provide a unit price for all items. A zero-dollar figure ($0.00) unit price means the Offeror will provide the service or supply at no charge to the Government. Unit prices left blank or annotated with something other than a dollar figure will be considered unacceptable and the Government has discretion whether to reject the offer without any further consideration. The Government reserves the right to award without discussions, therefore, each initial offer should contain the offeror’s best terms from a price and technical standpoint. However, the Government reserves the right to conduct discussions if determined necessary by the Contracting Officer. All evaluation factors other than cost or price, when combined are approximately equal to cost or price. The Government will award a Firm-Fixed Price contract resulting from this combined synopsis/solicitation to the responsible offeror whose offer conforming to the synopsis/solicitation will be most advantageous to the Government, price and other factors considered.
