FAR 52.212-2, Evaluation - Commercial Items (JAN 1999) is applicable to this procurement. This is a best value acquisition using the trade-off approach. The USCG intends to award single award IDIQ contract resulting from this solicitation to the responsible offeror whose offer is most advantageous to the Government. THE GOVERNMENT INTENDS TO AWARD THIS IDIQ WITHOUT DISCUSSIONS OR NEGOTATIONS. ALL PROPOSALS WILL BE CONSIDERED TO BE THE FINAL PROPOSAL. Selection and award of the IDIQ Contract will be based in descending order of importance: 1) Technical Approach, 2) Price, and 3) Relevant Past Performance. Technical Approach is the most important factor, followed by Price and lastly by Relevant Past Performance. The USCG will evaluate the offers that meet the requirements of the solicitation against the following evaluation criteria: Factor 1: Technical Approach and Capability The Government will evaluate each offeror's technical approach and capability to determine their capacity to meet all the requirements outlined in the PWS this will include the evaluation of the understanding of the Statement of Work, Corporate Experience with providing CBRN training, Offerors capability to meet Geographic needs, Offerors ability to provide required training within 30 days of award, and the resumes' of personnel designated Key in HSAR 3052.215-70 meet with the requirements set forth in Section 1.3. Factor 2: Price The Government will evaluate the total overall price excluding travel. It is DHS policy that pricing for competitively negotiated contracts should be based on adequate price competition. However, in the event only one responsible offeror is obtained as a result of this solicitation, that offeror may be required to submit either Certified Cost Pricing Data (FAR 15.403-4) or Data Other Than Certified Cost Pricing Data (FAR 15.403-3) to support price negotiations. Factor 3: Relevant Past Performance The Government will evaluate the past performance of the offeror for relevancy. The offeror shall provide past performance information for services directly related and relevant to the services to be performed under the PWS. To be considered relevant, the services must have been performed within the past three years. The USCG reserves the right to utilize past performance information other than the information submitted with the proposals received in conducting the evaluation. A Contractor without a record of relevant past performance or for whom information on past performance is not available will not be evaluated favorably or unfavorably on past performance, but will receive a neutral rating. The USCG may consider past performance information regarding predecessor companies or subcontractors that will perform major or critical aspects of the requirement when such information is considered relevant.

(End of clause) HSAR 3052.209-72 ORGANIZATIONAL CONFLICT OF INTEREST (JUN 2006) (a) Determination. The Government has determined that this effort may result in an actual or potential conflict of interest, or may provide one or more offerors with the potential to attain an unfair competitive advantage. The nature of the conflict of interest and the limitation on future contracting, if applicable, will be specified on each task order. (b) If any such conflict of interest is found to exist, the Contracting Officer may (1) disqualify the offeror, or (2) determine that it is otherwise in the best interest of the United States to contract with the offeror and include the appropriate provisions to avoid, neutralize, mitigate, or waive such conflict in the contract awarded. After discussion with the offeror, the Contracting Officer may determine that the actual conflict cannot be avoided, neutralized, mitigated or otherwise resolved to the satisfaction of the Government, and the offeror may be found ineligible for award. (c) Disclosure: The offeror hereby represents, to the best of its knowledge that: ___ (1) It is not aware of any facts which create any actual or potential organizational conflicts of interest relating to the award of this contract, or ___ (2) It has included information in its proposal, providing all current information bearing on the existence of any actual or potential organizational conflicts of interest, and has included a mitigation plan in accordance with paragraph (d) of this provision. (d) Mitigation. If an offeror with a potential or actual conflict of interest or unfair competitive advantage believes the conflict can be avoided, neutralized, or mitigated, the offeror shall submit a mitigation plan to the Government for review. Award of a contract where an actual or potential conflict of interest exists shall not occur before Government approval of the mitigation plan. If a mitigation plan is approved, the restrictions of this provision do not apply to the extent defined in the mitigation plan. (e) Other Relevant Information: In addition to the mitigation plan, the Contracting Officer may require further relevant information from the offeror. The Contracting Officer will use all information submitted by the offeror, and any other relevant information known to DHS, to determine whether an award to the offeror may take place, and whether the mitigation plan adequately neutralizes or mitigates the conflict.

The successful offeror shall inform the Contracting Officer within thirty (30) calendar days of the effective date of any corporate mergers, acquisitions, and/or divestures that may affect this provision.
