Basis for Award: This acquisition will utilize Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) source selection procedures in accordance with FAR 15.101-2, as supplemented. By submission of its offer, the Offeror accepts all solicitation requirements, including terms and conditions, representations and certifications, and technical requirements. All technically acceptable offerors, with acceptable past performance, shall be treated equally except for their prices. Failure to meet a requirement may result in an offer being determined technically unacceptable. Offerors must clearly identify any exception to the solicitation and conditions and provide complete accompanying rationale. In order for an Offeror to be considered for award, the proposal must receive an "Acceptable" rating in every non-price factor. Any proposal receiving a rating of "Unacceptable" in any non-price factor will not be further evaluated. The Government intends to evaluate proposals and make award without discussions. The Government reserves the right to conduct discussions if the Contracting Officer later determines discussions to be necessary. The Government intends to award one (1) contract for this requirement. For the purpose of award, the Government shall evaluate offers based on the evaluation factors described below: FACTOR 1 - Technical Acceptability FACTOR 2 - Past Performance FACTOR 3 - Price Factor 1: Technical Acceptability: The Government will evaluate the contractor's technical specification and product literature to ensure that it reflects a sound understanding of this requirement. Technical Acceptability/Unacceptable Ratings: Acceptable - Proposal clearly meets the minimum requirements of the solicitation. Unacceptable - Proposal does not clearly meet the minimum requirements of the solicitation. Factor 2: Past Performance: Offeror to provide at least three (3) contract(s) that are relevant for the products listed in the price schedule and recent contract(s) for the last three years and present contract(s) in process that are relevant in nature to the solicitation. The Government may seek relevant and recent performance information on all responsive and otherwise Technically Acceptable Offerors through sources such as CPARS or PPIRS or other databases, interviews with Program Managers, Contracting Officers and other sources that are available. The government shall not be limited in its search for performance data. The offeror shall provide performance information for this factor. When performance is evaluated, the outcome is either Acceptable or Unacceptable. Unacceptable performance will disqualify an offeror from award. Past Performance Include the following information for each contract or subcontract: 1. Name of Contracting Organization 2. Contract Number (for subcontracts, provide the prime contract number and the subcontract number) 3. Relevant: Total Contract Value 4. Relevant: Description of Supplies Requirement 5. Recency: Contract Performance Dates 6. Contracting Officer's Name and Telephone Number 7. Program Manager's and Telephone Number 8. North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) Code Past Performance Evaluation Ratings: Acceptable - Based on the offeror's performance record, the Government has a reasonable expectation that the offeror will successfully perform the required effort, or the offeror's performance record is unknown. Unacceptable - Based on the offeror's performance record, the Government has no reasonable expectation that the offeror will be able to successfully perform the required effort. 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 (see FAR 15.305 (a)(2)(iv)). Therefore, the offeror shall be determined to have unknown past performance. In the context of acceptability/unacceptability, "unknown" shall be considered "acceptable." Factor 3: Price: The Government will evaluate the quote to determine the price fair and reasonable in accordance with FAR 13.106-3(a). Offer must be good for 30 calendar day after submission. FOB Destination CONUS (Continental U.S.). Shipping charges shall be included in the purchase cost of the product. Sellers shall deliver the products on the own conveyance to the location listed on the award. In order to be considered for an award, an offeror must have completed the online electronic Representations and Certifications located at https://www.sam.gov/ in accordance with FAR 4.1201(a). By submission of an offer, the offeror acknowledges the requirement that a prospective awardee shall be registered in SAM at https://www.sam.gov/ prior to award, during performance, and through final payment of any contract, basic agreement, basic ordering agreement, or blanket purchasing agreement resulting from this solicitation [Note: Lack of registration in the System for Award Management will make an offeror ineligible for award.] All responsible sources may submit an offer that will be considered by the Agency.
