While price will be a significant factor in the evaluation of offers, the final contract award will be based on a combination of factors - a combination of technically acceptable low bids and past performance. The relative importance of the factors is as follows: a technically acceptable low bid is more important than past performance. Past Performance: The offeror shall submit, as part of its quote, information on previously performed contracts or on-going contracts that are similar to the statement of work in the solicitation performed for Federal, State or local Governments, and for commercial firms. Information shall be provided on either: 1) all such contracts within the past three years or 2) the last three such contracts performed, whichever is fewer, and shall be limited to the name and address of the organization for which the product was supplied and services were performed and the number (phone, fax or Internet) of a contact for each contract listed. The Offeror should not describe past performance history in the quote. The information should include, however, discussion of any major problems encountered on the contracts listed and the corrective actions taken to resolve them. The information may also include a description of any quality awards earned by the offeror. The Government reserves the right to obtain information for use in the evaluation of past performance from any and all sources including sources outside of the Government. Offerors lacking relevant past performance history will not be evaluated favorably or unfavorably on past performance. However, the quote of a company with no relevant past performance history, while not rated favorably or unfavorably for past performance, may not represent the most advantageous quote to the Government and thus, may be an unsuccessful quote when compared to the responses of other Offerors. The offeror should provide the information requested above for past performance evaluation, or affirmatively state that it possesses no relevant directly related or similar past performance. The assessment of the offeror's past performance will be used as a means of evaluating the relative capability of the responder and other competitors to successfully meet the requirements of the RFQ. The Government will give greater consideration to the contracts that the Government feels are most relevant to the RFQ. This announcement will close at 5:00 PM Eastern Standard Time (EST) on September 28, 2016. Questioning pertaining to this RFQ must be submitted in writing to James Rall at email contact@example.gov and contact@example.gov. Telephonic requests will not be honored. Quotes may be submitted via electronic means (email) to contact@example.gov and contact@example.gov by the date and time listed above. All responsible sources may submit a quote, which shall be considered by the agency. All quotes shall include prices for all Line Items, a point of contact name and phone number, and payment terms. Each response must clearly indicate the capability of the offeror to meet all specifications and requirements.
