(a) 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, price and other factors considered. The following factors shall be used to evaluate offers. (i) TECHNICAL SPECIFICATION OF PROPOSED ITEM (ii) PAST PERFORMANCE (iii) PRICE Offerors' proposals will be evaluated first under Factor (i) above, which represents MINIMUM acceptable criteria. Under this factor, products offered will be determined to be either technically acceptable or unacceptable. A “will comply? statement without accompanying technical specifications and/or drawings of product being offered is automatic failure under this factor. Failure to meet the minimum criteria will render the offer to be technically unacceptable and to not be considered for award. See paragraph (b) below. Only those Offers which meet the minimum requirements established by Factor (i) and delineated in SOW will be further evaluated under Factors (ii), and (iii). In the second step of evaluating the offers determined under Factor (i) to be technically acceptable, Factor (ii), PAST PERFORMANCE, combined with factor (i) is approximately of equal importance with Factor (iii), PRICE. At the discretion of the Contracting Officer, the Government intends to evaluate proposals and award a contract without discussions with offerors. Each initial offer should, therefore contain the Offeror's best terms from both a price and technical standpoint. (b) TECHNICAL SPECIFICATION OF PROPOSED ITEM. Factor (i), will be assessed by evaluating technical information submitted in response to this solicitation. Items offered, as provided in Offerors' technical information, will be evaluated and determined to be either technically acceptable or technically unacceptable. Criteria to use is conformance to ALL requirements delineated in the SOW. Offers which are determined to be technically unacceptable may not be considered for further for award. (c) Offeror's PAST PERFORMANCE information will be used to make a determination of whether the offeror has a satisfactory record of past performance. Offerors should, therefore, provide performance history and references to demonstrate satisfactory performance for up to three prior similar contracts performed within the past three years. Offers which lack relevant past performance history will receive a neutral rating for this factor. Any Offeror's proposal which has no relevant past performance history, while rated neutral, may not represent the most advantageous proposal to the Government and thus, may be an unsuccessful proposal when compared to the proposals of other offerors. The Contracting Officer will evaluate Offeror's PAST PERFORMANCE as follows: NEUTRAL: No relevant past performance available for evaluation. Offeror has asserted that it has no relevant directly related or similar past performance experience. Proposal receives no merit or demerit for this factor. SATISFACTORY: Very little risk anticipated with delivery of quality product, on time, or of degradation of performance, or lack of customer satisfaction based upon the offeror's past performance. UNSATISFACTORY: Significant potential risk anticipated with delivery of quality product, on time, and of degradation of performance based upon the offeror's past performance.
