The purchase order will be awarded to the offeror who is deemed responsible by the Contracting Officer, in accordance with the General Standards for contractor responsibility at FAR 9.104-1, and whose proposal conforms to all of the solicitation's requirements (including stated terms, conditions, representations, certifications, and all other information) and is assessed, based on the evaluation factors below, to represent the lowest price technically acceptable. 2.0 Evaluation Factors & Evaluation Approach All proposals will be evaluated in a fair and consistent manner. All proposals will be subject to evaluation by a team of Government personnel. The offeror whose proposal is determined to provide the lowest priced proposal that meets the acceptability standards for non-cost factors will be awarded the purchase order. The Government may reject any proposal that is evaluated to be unrealistic in terms of program commitments, including contract terms and conditions, or unrealistically high or low priced when compared to Government estimates, such that the proposal is deemed to reflect an inherent lack of competence or failure to comprehend the complexity and risks of the program. The Government reserves the right to award based on initial proposals. The Government intends to evaluate proposals and award the purchase order without discussions with the offerors (except clarifications as described in FAR 15.306). However, the Government reserves the right to conduct discussions and request proposal revisions if it is determined to be in the best interest of the Government. Factor 1 - Technical The proposals will be evaluated based on the criteria established in this solicitation as follows. In order to achieve an Acceptable rating in the Technical factor, the offeror's proposal must clearly meet the following minimum requirements: a. Technical Approach: The offeror's proposal shall demonstrate a thorough understanding of the requirements as defined in the Statement of Work to include: i. The contractor shall meet the following military standards and/or industry standard for the listed materials on the specified drawings: a) PART: 7599-02 b) PART: 7599-03 c) PART: 7599-04 d) PART: 7599-05 e) PART: 7599-06 ii. The Contractor shall deliver materials within the delivery schedule specified in the Statement of Work or best delivery schedule. Proposals will be evaluated to determine an offeror's Understanding of the Requirements and Feasibility of Approach. (1) Understanding the Requirements - The proposal will be evaluated to determine the extent to which it demonstrates a clear and complete understanding of all requirements involved including offeror's existing capabilities, knowledge and expertise in providing the requested items and meeting the requirements presented by the SOW. (2) Feasibility of Approach - The proposal will be evaluated to determine whether the offeror's methods and approach to meeting the SOW requirements provide the Government with a high level of confidence of successful completion within the required schedule. ADJECTIVAL RATING DEFINITION ACCEPTABLE Proposal clearly meets the minimum requirements of the solicitation. UNACCEPTABLE Proposal does not clearly meet the minimum requirements of the solicitation. Factor 2 - Price 1. The Total Evaluated Price will be determined by summing the price proposed on each Line Item. This Total Evaluated Price will then be evaluated for reasonableness in accordance with price analysis techniques at FAR 15.404-1(b). Price will not be scored. 2. An offeror must propose on all Line Items to be considered for award. Unit pricing shall be listed with extended costs for each item. 3. Adequate competition is anticipated for this purchase order. However, in the event that only one offer is received, the Government reserves the right to perform a cost analysis IAW FAR 15.404-1(c). Therefore, in instances when only one offer is received and the quote is $700,000 or more, the Contracting Officer shall obtain Certified Cost or Pricing Data. Offers under $700,000.00 require cost or pricing data, but such cost or pricing data is not required to be certified by the offeror. Cost or Pricing Data or Other than certified cost or pricing data shall be provided upon request IAW FAR 15.403. This information will be evaluated for magnitude and reasonableness and may be adjusted from a technical and cost perspective using cost analysis to determine the most probable cost to the Government. Offerors shall utilize a Microsoft Excel file format with formulas intact when submitting their Price/Cost quote (FAR 15.403-5(b)(1)). 4. Price/Cost Inconsistencies: A proposal is presumed to represent an offeror's best effort to respond to the solicitation. Each initial proposal should contain the offeror's best terms for award for this purchase order. Any inconsistencies in performance or price should be explained in the proposal. Any significant inconsistencies, if unexplained, raise a fundamental issue of the offeror's understanding of the nature and scope of work required and its financial ability to perform the contract, and may be grounds for rejection of the proposal. Please complete provision 52.212-3, Offeror Representations and Certifications- Commercial Items; OR indicate that your company's representation's and certifications are current and available via Sam.gov. Point of Contact: Nicole Thalmann; nicole.l.thalmann.civ@mail.mil. Proposals must be received No Later Than 14 November 2018.
