The offeror is solely responsible for the performance of all inspection requirements and quality control. The following provisions and clauses are applicable to this procurement: FAR 52.212-1, Instructions to Offerors - Commercial Items. The government reserves the right to evaluate quotes and award a contract without discussions with offerors. Offers shall be evaluated in accordance with FAR 52.212-2 - Evaluation - Commercial Items - The addendum to paragraph (a) is as follows: 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. The following factors shall be used to evaluate offers: 1-Price: Price will be evaluated for fair and reasonableness and for unbalanced pricing. 2-Past Performance: This factor will be rated acceptable or unacceptable based on whether the past performance submitted for consideration is relevant and demonstrates successful past performance by the vendor, such as: no terminations for default, no ratings less than satisfactory by its customers/references, whether the quality of its work was satisfactory and completed in a timely manner and whether the vendor demonstrated reasonableness and cooperation during performance of the contracts. Past failure to apply sufficient tenacity and perseverance to perform acceptably is strong evidence of unacceptable past performance. In addition, failure to meet the quality requirements of a contract is a significant factor to consider in determining unsatisfactory performance. Past Performance Evaluation Ratings: Acceptable- Based on the vendor's performance record, the Government has a reasonable expectation that the vendor will successfully perform the required effort, or the vendor's performance is unknown. Unacceptable- Based on the vendor's performance record, the Government has no reasonable expectation that the vendor will be able to successfully perform the required effort. For Past Performance to be considered relevant, it must be similar in work, as described in Para. 1.6 of the attached Performance Work Statement, must be accomplished in the last three years from the date of this solicitation and the magnitude must be over $25,000.00.In the case of a quote 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 vendor shall be determined to have unknown past performance. Unknown shall be considered acceptable. The Past Performance is considered to be not relevant if it is not similar in work, as described in Para. 1.6 of the attached Performance Work Statement, if it is not accomplished in the last three years from the date of this solicitation and if the magnitude is under $25,000.00.The Government will conduct a past performance assessment on all contracts submitted by the vendor on the attached Past Performance Questionnaire. The Government will consider the currency and relevance of the information, source of the information, context of the data, and general trends in contractor's performance.
