EVALUATION FACTORS: The following provision is incorporated by full text into FAR 52.212-2, Evaluation - Commercial Items: (a) The Government will award a contract resulting from this solicitation to the responsible offeror whose offer conforming to the solicitation will be most advantageous to the Government, price and other factors considered. The following factors shall be used to evaluate offers: •1. Understanding and Approach. For this factor, the Government will evaluate Offerors on the degree to which the proposal demonstrates knowledge, understanding, and capability to perform the tasks outlined in the Performance Work Statement (PWS). The Government will evaluate the degree to which the proposed overall allocation of labor resources demonstrates the Offeror's ability to meet the requirements of the PWS. The Government will also evaluate the level to which the qualifications associated with the proposed labor categories demonstrate the ability to successfully meet the requirements of the PWS. The following rating scheme will be used for this factor: Combined Technical/Risk Rating COLOR RATING DESCRIPTION Blue Outstanding Proposal meets requirements and indicates an exceptional approach and understanding of the requirements. Strengths far outweigh any weaknesses. Risk of unsuccessful performance is very low. Purple Good Proposal meets requirements and indicates a thorough approach and understanding of the requirements. Proposal contains strengths which outweigh any weaknesses. Risk of unsuccessful performance is low. Green Acceptable Proposal meets requirements and indicates an adequate approach and understanding of the requirements. Strengths and weaknesses are off-setting or will have little or no impact on contract performance. Risk of unsuccessful performance is no worse than moderate. Yellow Marginal Proposal does not clearly meet requirements and has not demonstrated an adequate approach and understanding of the requirements. The proposal has one or more weaknesses which are not offset by strengths. Risk of unsuccessful performance is high. Red Unacceptable Proposal does not meet requirements and contains one or more deficiencies. Proposal is unawardable. •2. Price. A total evaluated price for each Offeror will be calculated by summing the monthly unit price for the CLIN multiplied by twelve (12) months. The Government intends to make a price reasonableness determination on the basis of adequate competition. However, the Government may request other than cost and pricing data, if adequate competition is not received, and reserves the right to use any of the price analysis techniques set forth in FAR 15.404-1(b). •3. Past Performance. Past performance will be evaluated for relevancy based on the Offeror's experience performing tasks similar in size, scope, and/or complexity. Past performance shall also be evaluated to determine the level of risk posed on the basis of customer satisfaction with the Offeror's prior performance. Understanding and Approach is more important than Past Performance. All non-price factors, when combined, are more important than Price. (b) A written notice of award or acceptance of an offer mailed or otherwise furnished to the successful offeror within the time for acceptance specified in the offer, shall result in a binding contract without further action by either party.
