Evaluation: The Department of Veteran Affairs Network Contracting Office 21 (NCO21) shall use a simplified comparative evaluation procedure for determining the offeror who s quote results in providing the best value to the Government based on price and other factors for awarding a Firm Fixed Price Purchase Order for the requirements as stated herein. The comparative evaluation shall take note of strengths, weaknesses, and deficiencies of the offerors technical capability and of having the necessary resources for meeting the requirements of the Performance Work Statement (PWS). The Government reserves the right to consider quotes that offer more than the minimum in selecting the offer that provides the best value to the Government, and to award without discussions. Therefore, it is at the Governments discretion to consider other than the lowest priced offer for awarding the purchase order. The following factors, in no particular order, will be used for the evaluation: Price: Prices are to be quoted separately using the table provided herein or using a similar structured Line Item format for the base year and 1 Option Year. Thus, one document of the quote shall be submitted with unit price and extensions for each line item and totaled for all. Offerors will need to factor in and state the cost per pound for each category of hazardous waste, for each line item, as described herein. Technical Approach: Offerors shall state from their own perspective that they have the technical capability and adequate resources for performing the requirements as stated in the Performance Work Statement (PWS). Merely restating or copying and pasting what is in the PWS will be evaluated unacceptable. Offerors shall submit with their offer all current relevant certifications, licenses, and certificates of insurance for performing these services in the State of California. Past Performance: Offerors past performance will be based on review of relative CPARS assessments as reported at CPARS.GOV within the last 3 years for the same or similar work. Any apparent uncorrected marginal and unsatisfactory CPARS ratings that resulted in a termination for cause/default will be evaluated as a deficiency, with possible referral to the Small Business Administration for Certificate of Competency. Unassigned CPARS ratings will be evaluated as neutral. Offerors may submit up to 3 past performance references for work performed within the last 3 years in the State of California for the same or similar work as described under the PWS. Evaluation of Options: Except when it is determined in accordance with FAR 17.206(b) not to be in the Government s best interests, the Government will evaluate offers for award purposes by adding the total price for all options to the total price for the basic requirement. This includes options under FAR 52.217-8, Option to Extend Services, which applies to this solicitation. Evaluation of options under FAR 52.217-8 will be accomplished by using the prices offered for the last option period to determine the price for a 6-month option period, which will be added to the base and other option years to arrive at the total price. Evaluation of options will not obligate the Government to exercise the option(s). (NOTE: Offeror is NOT to quote on the Option to Extend Services) The services are for the following: Line Item Description Qty Unit Unit Price Total Price 0001 Regulated Medical Waste Transportation and Disposal in accordance with the Performance Work Statement for the base year period.
