PART II - PAST PERFORMANCE INFORMATION -Only references for same or similar type contract are desired. Submit one (1) copy. 1. Vendors must submit recent and relevant contact information for at least two (2), of the most current recent and relevant contracts performed for State/Federal agencies and commercial customers. To be considered recent, services for a particular customer must have been provided within the last three (3) years. To be considered relevant, services must be, or have been, similar in size (monetary value and number of classes provided) and complexity as the requirement in this solicitation. A reference list will be provided by the vendor, with a minimum of two (2) references, of recent and relevant contracts or projects performed. The contracting officer will be responsible for contacting the vendor's points of contact via email or telephone. Multiple customer contacts can be provided for the same customer. Data independently obtained from other government and commercial sources will also be utilized by the government during evaluation. The Government will evaluate the quality and extent of vendor's performance deemed relevant to the requirements of this RFQ. 2. For each contract or project offerors must provide the following information: a. Company/Division name b. Service c. Contracting Agency/Customer d. Contract/Project Number e. Contract Dollar Value f. Period of Performance g. Verified, up-to-date name, address, email, and telephone number of the primary customer point of contact and/or contracting officer 3.

Subcontractor Consent: Past performance information pertaining to a subcontractor cannot be disclosed to the prime offeror without the subcontractor‘s consent. Provide with the proposal a letter from all subcontractors that will perform major or critical aspects of the requirement, consenting to the release of their past performance information to the prime contractor. PART III - PRICE - Submit one (1) copy 1. Insert quoted unit and extended prices in the above price schedule.

Quotations must be priced and submitted for the entire performance period. 2. Complete the necessary fill-ins and certifications in FAR 52.212-3 Alt I. 3. The contracting officer has determined in response to this solicitation, there is a high probability that adequate price competition will be achieved. Upon initial examination of offers, the contracting officer will review this determination and if, in the contracting officer's opinion, adequate price competition exists, additional price information will not be required or requested. If however the contracting officer determines that adequate price competition does not exist¹, communications may be conducted to a limited extent with interested vendors to determine the reasonableness of quoted pricing. Inadequate price competition is not specifically subject to only one (1), or a very limited number of quotes being received in response to the solicitation. A determination of inadequate price competition may also result if quoted pricing by a vendor is found considerably higher or lower either with relation to the medium range of quotes received and/or with comparison to independent Government price estimates. Therefore, price analysis may include communications with vendors to a sufficient extent for the contracting officer to determine a fair and reasonable price. (End of Provision) 52.212-2 Evaluation -- Commercial Items (Jan 1999) (a) Award Basis: The Governments evaluation of quotations will fully account for the evaluation factors identified and required under 52.212-1 of 1) Technical Specifications, 2) Past Performance, and 3) Price. The evaluation of these factors will utilize an award basis that results in an award to the lowest priced technically acceptable quotation that has been assigned an acceptable past performance rating. Quotes that do not meet the stated minimum technical specifications will be deemed technically unacceptable, and therefore not considered for award. In addition, vendor's that are assigned an unacceptable past performance rating will not be considered for award. Finally, quotations that are incomplete and/or are determined to be priced unreasonably too high or too low, may not be selected for award. Therefore, quotations should contain the vendor's best terms, from a price, Technical Specification, and Past Performance standpoint. Under the LPTA source selection process, trade-offs are not permitted, proposals are evaluated for acceptability but not ranked using the non-price factors. (b) Evaluation: Evaluation factors required under 52.212-1 will be evaluated by the Government as follows; i. Technical Specifications: The government will evaluate technical proposals and the below listed sub-factor in accordance with the SOW on a pass/fail-basis, assigning ratings of acceptable, or unacceptable. An unacceptable rating for any of the below sub-factor will result in an unacceptable rating for this Technical Specifications primary factor. Accordingly, under the LPTA source selection approach, vendors who receive an unacceptable rating for this factor, will not be considered for award. Technical Acceptability shall be evaluated against the following sub-factor: A. Transition Plan As a result of the government's evaluation of the aforementioned Technical Specification sub-factor of Transition Plan and all associated elements, a determination of acceptable or unacceptable will be assigned using the following ratings and descriptions: Technical Capability Ratings Rating Description Acceptable Proposal clearly meets the minimum requirements of the solicitation. Unacceptable Proposal does not clearly meet the minimum requirements of the solicitation. ii. Past Performance: Past performance ratings will be evaluated using the list of current/recent and relevant references provided by vendors. The references will be contacted by the government via telephone/email to evaluate each vendors past performance to determine whether or not the services provided on current or previous projects/contracts met project/contract requirements, and if the services were performed in accordance with prescribed performance schedules and/or contract transition schedule. This information will be utilized to determine if the Government has a reasonable expectation that the offeror will successfully perform the required effort. Also utilized by the government during evaluation will be data independently obtained from other government and commercial sources. Based upon feedback from respondents, and information gained from other government/commercial sources, evaluation will further assess the recency and relevancy of associated experience, and if found recent and relevant, then determine the offeror to have successfully demonstrated an ability to perform. The evaluation of relevant past performance information will take into account experience regarding predecessor companies, key personnel who have relevant experience, or subcontractors that will perform major or critical aspects of the requirement when such information is relevant to the solicitation. The result of the assessment will determine if a vendor's past performance on recent and relevant projects/contracts was favorable, or unfavorable. The evaluation of past performance information will result in an overall assessment of acceptable or unacceptable as follows: Past Performance Evaluation Ratings Rating Description Acceptable Based on the offeror's performance record, the Government has a reasonable expectation that the offeror will successfully perform the required effort in meeting the requirements of the solicitation and resultant contract if awarded, or the offeror's performance record is unknown. (See note below) Unacceptable Based on the vendor's performance record, the Government has no reasonable expectation that the offeror will be able to successfully perform the required effort. Note: In the case of an offeror without a record of relevant past performance or for whom information on past performance is not available or so sparse that no meaningful past performance rating can be reasonably assigned, the offeror may not be evaluated favorably or unfavorably on past performance. Therefore, the offeror shall be determined to have unknown past performance. In the context of acceptability/unacceptability, "unknown" shall be considered "acceptable." iii. Price: As this requirement is a "commercial" service that will result in a "firm-fixed-priced" contract, a comparison of offeror's proposed, competitive quotes will satisfy the requirement for price analysis, in establishing price reasonableness in accordance with FAR Part 13.106-3(a)(1). Quoted pricing will be verified by calculating unit pricing at the CLIN level and adding base period CLINs and all option year CLINs. If a determination of reasonable pricing cannot be established through adequate price competition, the Government may conduct communications with vendors to discuss quoted unit pricing at the CLIN-level, as well as total extended annual and overall amounts. The depth at which the Government determines price reasonableness, is left to the Government's discretion. Price evaluation applied to FY15 Option Period proposed pricing will also be utilized for the potential of exercising Option to Extend Services clause 52.217-8. (c) Award Determination: As a result of the Government's aforementioned evaluation, only those vendors whose quotes are determined to be technically acceptable and that have been assigned an acceptable past performance rating, will be considered for award. Of those vendors found technically acceptable, and assigned acceptable past performance ratings, award will be made to the lowest priced offeror whose price is determined reasonable and affordable. A written notice of award or acceptance of a quotation, mailed or otherwise furnished to the successful vendor within the time for acceptance specified in the quotation, shall result in a binding contract without further action by either party. Before the vendor's specified expiration time, the Government may accept a quotation. (End of Provision) 52.217-5 EVALUATION OF OPTIONS (JUL 1990) Except when it is determined in accordance with FAR 17.206(b) not to be in the Government's best interests, the Government will evaluate offers for award purposes by adding the total price for all options to the total price for the basic requirement. Evaluation of options will not obligate the Government to exercise the option(s). (End of Provision) 52.217-8 - OPTION TO EXTEND SERVICES. (Nov 1999) The Government may require continued performance of any services within the limits and at the rates specified in the contract. These rates may be adjusted only as a result of revisions to prevailing labor rates provided by the Secretary of Labor. The option provision may be exercised more than once, but the total extension of performance hereunder shall not exceed 6 months. The Contracting Officer may exercise the option by written notice to the Contractor within 30 days. (End of provision) 52.217-9 OPTION TO EXTEND THE TERM OF THE CONTRACT (MAR 2000) (a) The Government may extend the term of this contract by written notice to the Contractor within 30 days; provided that the Government gives the Contractor a preliminary written notice of its intent to extend at least 60 days before the contract expires. The preliminary notice does not commit the Government to an extension. (b) If the Government exercises this option, the extended contract shall be considered to include this option clause. (c) The total duration of this contract, including the exercise of any options under this clause, shall not exceed 3 years and 5 months. (End of provision) In accordance with FAR 13.004 -- Legal Effect of Quotations the following information is provided in regards to quotations. A quotation is not an offer and, consequently, cannot be accepted by the Government to form a binding contract. Therefore, issuance by the Government of an order in response to a supplier's quotation does not establish a contract. The order is an offer by the Government to the supplier to buy certain supplies or services upon specified terms and conditions. A contract is established when the supplier accepts the offer. When appropriate, the contracting officer may ask the supplier to indicate acceptance of an order by notification to the Government, preferably in writing. In other circumstances, the supplier may indicate acceptance by furnishing the supplies or services ordered or by proceeding with the work to the point where substantial performance has occurred. If the Government issues an order resulting from a quotation, the Government may (by written notice to the supplier, at any time before acceptance occurs) withdraw, amend, or cancel its offer.
