BASIS FOR AWARD The award resulting from this solicitation will be made based on the best overall proposal that is determined to be the most beneficial to the Government (i.e., best value). The following non-price factors, listed in descending order of importance, will be used to evaluate offers: Technical Approach, Past Performance, and Socioeconomic Considerations. Price will be considered separately. The non-price factors when combined are significantly more important than the Price Factor. It should be noted that award may be made to other than the lowest priced Offeror, if the Government determines that a price premium is warranted due to merits of one (1) or more of the non-price factors. Price alone will not be the primary determining factor, and the eventual award will not be based on low price alone. The Source Selection Authority (SSA) will determine the relative value of identified strengths and weaknesses in each proposal. The SSA will then perform a comparative analysis of the values of strengths and weaknesses versus price differences to determine the proposal(s) representing the best value to the Government. For this effort, the SSA will be the Contracting Officer (CO). A.FACTORS TO BE EVALUATED 1.NON-PRICE EVALUATION FACTORS: a)Technical Approach b)Past Performance c)Socioeconomic Consideration 2.PRICE FACTOR The non-price factors, when combined, are significantly more important than the Price Factor.

The Government shall evaluate price to determine whether or not it is considered fair and reasonable based on FAR 8.405-2(d). In accordance with FAR 8.404 (d), GSA has already determined the prices of supplies and fixed-price services, and rates for services offered at hourly rates, under schedule contracts to be fair and reasonable. Therefore, the CO will be responsible for determining that the total price is reasonable from all responses received in accordance with the evaluation criteria provided to the contractors. All proposals shall be subject to evaluation by a team of at least three Government personnel. Contents of the written proposals will be evaluated to determine the degree and extent to which the requirements set forth in the Request for Proposal (RFQ) and SOW are satisfied. D.EVALUATION APPROACH Contents of the written proposals will be evaluated to determine the degree and extent to which the requirements set forth in the Request for Proposal (RFQ) and SOW are satisfied. 1.TECHNICAL EVALUATION APPROACH The Government will evaluate the Contractor's proposals based on their: a.Understanding of the Problem - The proposal will be evaluated to determine the extent to which it demonstrates a clear understanding of all features involved in solving the problems and meeting the requirements presented in the contract, and the extent to which uncertainties are identified and resolutions proposed. The proposal will be evaluated strictly in accordance with its written content. A proposal which merely restates the requirement or states that the requirement will be met, without providing supporting rationale, is not sufficient. b.Feasibility of Approach - The proposal will be evaluated to determine whether the Offeror's methods and approach to meeting the contract requirements provide the Government with a high level of confidence of successful completion within the required schedule. The evaluation will also consider the realism of the allocated hours, labor categories, and materials being proposed. c.Completeness - The proposal will be evaluated to determine whether the Offeror's methods and approach have adequately and completely considered, defined, and satisfied the requirements specified in the contract and/or solicitation. The proposal will be evaluated to determine the extent to which each requirement has been addressed. Risk relative to the proposed Technical Approach is evaluated as part of the Technical Evaluation to ascertain the degree of risk associated with the Offeror's proposed approach and the likelihood of success of the proposed approach. d.Level of Effort - The technical review team will be responsible for considering the level of effort and the mix of labor proposed to perform a specific task being ordered. 2.PAST PERFORMANCE EVALUATION APPROACH The Past Performance Approach will be evaluated based on the narrative, Past Performance references and other Government sources for quality, timeliness, and relevance (i.e., experience in providing services similar in size, scope, and complexity as described in the SOW. The Government will make determination of relevance. If no past performance information is readily available (FAR 15.306(a) (2) (iv)), the Offeror's past performance will not be evaluated favorably or unfavorably. 3.SOCIOECONOMIC CONDITIONS APPROACH In accordance with VAAR 852.215-70, SDVOSB, and VOSB Evaluation Factors, the Government will assign evaluation credit for an Offeror (prime contractor) which is a SDVOSB or some consideration for a VOSB. Non-Veteran Offerors proposing to use SDVOSBs or VOSBs as subcontractors will receive some consideration under this evaluation Factor. In accordance with VAAR 852.219-72, Evaluation Factor for Participation in the VA Mentor-Protégé Program, the Government will assign credit to large businesses with approved Mentor-Protégé Agreements. 4.PRICE EVALUATION APPROACH The Government shall evaluate price to determine whether or not it is considered fair and reasonable. Therefore, the Contracting Officer will be responsible for determining that the total price is reasonable from all responses received in accordance with the evaluation criteria provided to the contractors NOTE: Non-price factors are significantly more important than price. E.DEFINITIONS Strength: Results in significant benefit to the Government; potential for significant positive impact on quality of products or services. Weakness: A flaw in the proposal that increases the risk of unsuccessful contract performance. Significant Weakness: A flaw that appreciably increases the risk of unsuccessful contract performance. Deficiency: Is a material failure of a proposal to meet a Government requirement or a combination of significant weaknesses in a proposal that increases the risk of unsuccessful contract performance to an unacceptable level. 1.TECHNICAL APPROACH RATING DEFINITIONS Technical Approach will be evaluated against the following ratings: RatingDefinition ExcellentThe proposed approach indicates an exceptional and comprehensive understanding of the program goals, resources, schedules, and other aspects essential to the performance of the program.

MarginalThe proposed approach indicates a superficial or vague understanding of the program goals and the methods, resources, schedules, and other aspects essential to the performance of the program.
