After evaluation of quotations is completed, the Government will make an award to the responsible Vendor whose quotation (technical and price) conforms to the solicitation and is most advantageous to the Government, price and technical factors identified within this solicitation considered. For this solicitation, all evaluation factors other than price, when combined, are about equal when compared to price. The Government will not make an award to any Vendor whose quoted prices are not considered to be fair and reasonable.

TECHNICAL QUOTATION EVALUATION FACTORS AND INSTRUCTIONS: The Government will award a contract resulting from this solicitation to the responsible Vendor whose quote conforming to the solicitation will be most advantageous to the Government, price and other factors considered. The following factors will be used to evaluate technical quotations, and are listed in a descending order of importance: Factor 1, Technical Approach: This Factor considers the Technical Approach narrative provided by the Vendor. The Vendor must provide a Technical Approach narrative, not-to-exceed five (5) pages in length, to specifically address how they will accomplish the scope of services required within this Statement of Work. The Technical Approach narrative must also address how the Vendor will manage staffing and provide coverage for absences (short and long-term).

The government reserves the right to contact references to verify any information provided. Note: In the case of a Vendor without a record of relevant past performance or for whom information on past performance is not available, the Vendor’s quotation will not be evaluated favorably or unfavorably on past performance. Technical and past performance factors, when combined, are about equal when compared to price. (b) Options. The Government will evaluate quotations for award purposes by adding the total price for all options to the total price for the basic requirement. The Government may determine that a quotation is unacceptable if the option prices are significantly unbalanced. Evaluation of options shall not obligate the Government to exercise the option(s). (c) A written notice of award furnished to the successful quoter shall result in a binding contract without further action by either party.

However, failure to submit completed, required documents may result in the Vendor being considered non-responsive and eliminated from further consideration.

For this solicitation, all evaluation factors other than price, when combined, are about equal when compared to price.

TECHNICAL QUOTATION EVALUATION FACTORS AND INSTRUCTIONS: The Government will award a contract resulting from this solicitation to the responsible Vendor whose quote conforming to the solicitation will be most advantageous to the Government, price and other factors considered. The following factors will be used to evaluate technical quotations, and are listed in a descending order of importance: Factor 1, Technical Approach: This Factor considers the Technical Approach narrative provided by the Vendor. The Vendor must provide a Technical Approach narrative, not-to-exceed five (5) pages in length, to specifically address how they will accomplish the scope of services required within this Statement of Work. The Technical Approach narrative must also address how the Vendor will manage staffing and provide coverage for absences (short and long-term). Factor 2, Experience: The Vendor must submit a minimum of two (2) but no more than five (5) separate projects within the last 5 years of the closing date of this solicitation that details experience that is similar to the scope and magnitude of this requirement. Vendors must complete Attachment 2 - Vendor Experience Sheet and submit a completed sheet for each project referenced. Factor 3, Past Performance: Past Performance will be evaluated for the projects submitted for the experience factor. The Vendor must include complete contact information for each customer for each project submitted within the Attachment 2 - Vendor Experience Sheet. The government reserves the right to contact references to verify any information provided. Note: In the case of a Vendor without a record of relevant past performance or for whom information on past performance is not available, the Vendor’s quotation will not be evaluated favorably or unfavorably on past performance. Technical and past performance factors, when combined, are about equal when compared to price. (b) Options. The Government will evaluate quotations for award purposes by adding the total price for all options to the total price for the basic requirement. The Government may determine that a quotation is unacceptable if the option prices are significantly unbalanced. Evaluation of options shall not obligate the Government to exercise the option(s). (c) A written notice of award furnished to the successful quoter shall result in a binding contract without further action by either party. Factor 4, Price Quotation: This is not an evaluation factor. However, failure to submit completed, required documents may result in the Vendor being considered non-responsive and eliminated from further consideration. Vendors must submit their price quotations by utilizing the Attachment 1 – Vendor Quotation Sheet attached to this solicitation. The Vendor must only fill in the shaded areas of the pricing template for the initial Base Period and all option periods. Miscellaneous Documents: This is not an evaluation factor.
