This is a competitive best value combined synopsis/solicitation in which competing offerors technical capability, when combined with past performance history, will be evaluated on a basis significantly more important than price considerations. The evaluation process shall proceed as follows: (A) The Government technical evaluation team shall evaluate, on a pass/fail basis, proposals submitted by all offerors against the following evaluation factors: Configuration of a live production switching station; Technical literature submitted for all Brand Name or Equal Items as listed in the SOW; and technical support/responses as listed in the SOW. Initially, offers shall be ranked according to technical capability. (B) Using questionnaires, the contracting officer shall seek performance information on the offerors based on (1) the references provided by the offeror and (2) data independently obtained from other Government and commercial sources. The purpose of the past performance evaluation is to allow the Government to assess the offeror?s ability to perform the effort described in this RFQ, based on the offeror?s demonstrated present and past performance. The assessment process will result in an overall risk rating of exceptional, very good, satisfactory, neutral, marginal, or unsatisfactory.

(C) In evaluating past performance, the Government reserves the right to give greater consideration to information on those contracts deemed most relevant to the effort described in this RFQ. (D) If technical capability, with past performance, is judged to have an exceptional performance risk rating, that offer represents the best value for the Government and the evaluation process stops at this point. Award shall be made to that offeror without further consideration of any other offers. (F) The Government reserves the right to award a contract to other than the lowest priced offer if that offeror is judged to have a performance risk rating of ?very good? or lower. In that event, the contracting officer shall make an integrated assessment best value award decision.
