EVALUATION/AWARD: IAW FAR 52.212-2, Evaluation-Commercial Items. BASIS FOR CONTRACT AWARD 1. Award will be made based on the Lowest Price Technically Acceptable, meaning award will be made to the lowest evaluated priced proposal meeting or exceeding acceptability standards for non-price factors. 2. While the Government and the Contracting Officer will strive for maximum objectivity, the evaluation process, by its nature, is subjective and therefore, professional judgment is implicit throughout the entire evaluation process. 3. The government shall review the three (3) lowest priced proposals first. If all three (3) of these proposals are found to be technically acceptable, the lowest technically acceptable proposal will be selected as the apparent awardee. If any of these three (3) proposals are found to be technically unacceptable, then the government will continue to review the proposals from the next lowest priced proposal until three technically acceptable proposals have been found or all proposals have been reviewed for technical acceptability. Technical: Technical Rating: The technical rating provides an assessment of the offeror's Technical Approach and Technical Experience document, to determine whether the Government has a reasonable expectation that the offeror can provide services as defined in the SOW. The offeror will receive an Acceptable or Unacceptable rating as indicated in the following table: Technical Acceptable/Unacceptable Ratings Rating Description Acceptable Technical Approach clearly meets the requirements of the PWS. Unacceptable Technical Approach does not clearly meet the requirements of the PWS. Past Performance: In assessing performance, the evaluator may: (1) use data obtained from Air Force automated Past Performance Data Bases (i.e. CPARS and PPIRS). (2) use data independently obtained from other sources; (3) rely upon personal business experience with the offeror; (4) consider any information the offeror submits which explains any problems encountered on the identified contracts and the offeror's corrective actions; The Government reserves the right to obtain and evaluate past/present performance information from any source it deems appropriate. Past performance will be rated on an "acceptable" or "unacceptable" basis using the table below. In the case of an offeror without a record of recent, 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 will be determined to have unknown past performance, and the contractor will be considered acceptable. An offeror may be given the opportunity to clarify certain aspects of their proposals (i.e. the relevance of an offeror's past performance information, as related to this acquisition, adverse past performance information to which the offeror has not previously had an opportunity to respond). 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, 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.
