COMMERCIAL ITEMS (a) The Government intends to award a contract or contracts resulting from this solicitation to a responsible offeror or offerors using the lowest price technically acceptable source selection process. Proposals shall be evaluated for acceptability only and shall not be rated. Award will be based on the lowest evaluated price of proposals meeting or exceeding the acceptability standards for the non-cost factors. The following non-cost factors shall be used to evaluate proposals: Factor 1 ? Technical capability of the pest control building offered to meet the Government?s requirement and Factor 2 ? Past Performance. In the case of an offeror without a record of relevant past performance or for whom information on past performance is not available, the offeror will not be evaluated favorably or unfavorably on past performance. Factor 1 shall be evaluated on a ?go/no go? basis. If a proposal has been determined acceptable (go) on Factor 1, then Factor 2 will be evaluated. An offeror who has submitted a technically acceptable proposal, and who has either been found to have a satisfactory past performance history, no relevant past performance history, or for whom no past performance information is available, will then have its proposal evaluated for the lowest price. 1. Factor 1 ? Technical capability of the products offered to meet the Government?s requirement The minimum criteria for acceptability for this factor shall be the submission of descriptive literature and any other information required to clearly indicate that the offeror is proposing and will be providing the pest control building in accordance with all stated characteristics located in the Schedule of Supplies/Services. ?Descriptive literature? means information (e.g., cuts, illustrations, drawings and brochures) that is submitted as part of a proposal. Descriptive literature is required to establish, for the purpose of evaluation and award, details of the product offered that specified elsewhere in the solicitation and pertain to significant elements such as (1) design, (2) materials, (3) components, (4) performance characteristics and (5) methods of manufacture, assembly, construction or operation. The term includes only information required to determine the technical acceptability of the offered product. Descriptive literature must be (1) identified to show the product which it applies and (2) received by the date and time specified in the solicitation for the receipt of offers. Failure to submit descriptive literature or failure of descriptive literature to show that the product offered conforms to the requirements of this solicitation may result in the rejection of the offer. 2. Factor 2 ? Past Performance By past performance, the Government means the offeror?s record of conforming to the solicitation specifications and to standards of good workmanship; the offeror?s adherence to contract schedules, including the administrative aspects of performance; the offeror?s reputation for record of reasonable and cooperative behavior and commitment to customer satisfaction; and generally the offeror?s business-like concern for the interest of the customer. Evaluation of past performance will be a subjective assessment based on consideration of all relevant facts and circumstances. It will not be based on absolute standards of acceptable performance. The Government is seeking to determine whether the offeror has consistently demonstrated a commitment to customer satisfaction and timely deliveries. Offerors who have submitted a technically acceptable proposal will be given an opportunity to address any unfavorable reports of past performance. In the case of an offeror without a record of relevant past performance or for whom information on past performance is not available, the offeror will not be evaluated favorably or unfavorably on past performance. In evaluating an offeror?s past performance record, the Government will consider information in the offeror?s proposal and any information which may be obtained from other sources, including (as applicable) past and present customers and their employees; state and local agencies; other DoD components; other Federal Agencies; consumer protection organizations and better business bureaus; other public agencies; private firms, and former subcontractors; and others who may have useful information.

Companies protesting this procurement may file a protest 1) with the contracting officer, 2) with the General Accounting Office, or 3) pursuant to Executive Order No. 12979, with the Agency for a decision by the Activity?s Chief of the Contracting Office. Protests filed with the agency should clearly state that they are an "Agency Level Protest under Executive Order No. 12979." (Note: DLA procedures for Agency Level Protests filed under Executive Order No. 12979 allow for a higher level decision on the initial protest than would occur with a protest to the contracting officer; this process is not an appellate review of a contracting officer's decision on a protest previously filed with the contracting officer). Absent a clear indication of the intent to file an agency level protest, protests will be presumed to be protests to the contracting officer. DLAD 52.233-9001 Disputes: Agreement to Use Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR). (a) The parties agree to negotiate with each other to try to resolve any disputes that may arise. If unassisted negotiations are unsuccessful, the parties will use alternative dispute resolution (ADR) techniques to try to resolve the dispute. Litigation will only be considered as a last resort when ADR is unsuccessful or has been documented by the party rejecting ADR to be inappropriate for resolving the dispute. (b) Before either party determines ADR inappropriate, that party must discuss the use of ADR with the other party. The documentation rejecting ADR must be signed by an official authorized to bind the contractor (see FAR 52.233-1), or, for the Agency, by the contracting officer, and approved at a level above the contracting officer after consultation with the ADR Specialist and with legal counsel (see DLA Directive 5145.1). Contractor personnel are also encouraged to include the ADR Specialist in their discussions with the contracting officer before determining ADR to be inappropriate. (c) If you wish to opt out of this clause, check here [ ]. Alternate wording may be negotiated with the contracting officer. Although the Government intends to award a firm-fixed price contract as a result of this solicitation, the Government reserves the right to reject any and all proposals. All responsible small business concerns may submit a proposal that shall be considered by this agency. In order to be eligible for award, a Contractor must be determined to be responsible in accordance with FAR 9.104. All questions concerning this acquisition must be submitted in writing. Questions should be emailed to karen.kaufman@dla.mil. Request for Proposal (RFP) due date and time is September 19, 2007 ? 2:00PM local time.
