FAR 52.212-2 EVALUATION--COMMERCIAL ITEMS (OCT 2014) (a) Basis for Award: This section outlines the criteria the Government will use in evaluating the Vendor's capabilities and quote for the Lease of Heavy Construction Equipment Training Aids. Each Vendor shall submit a quote on all items in Schedule B, to be eligible for award. The Government will compare each Vendor's capabilities and quote elements against the predetermined evaluation criteria related to the Government's requirement defined herein. This will be a competitive solicitation. Commercial and simplified acquisition evaluation procedures in FAR Parts 12 and 13.5 will be utilized, along with best value lowest priced technically acceptable (LPTA) processes conducted under the authority FAR 13.106-2(b)(1) and as supplemented by the Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement (DFARS) and the Special Operations Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement (SOFARS). This acquisition is not being made under the authority, procedures, or requirements of FAR part 15. The use of concepts and procedures similar to those used under FAR part 15 are for clarity and convenience at the sole discretion of the Contracting Officer. 1. The Government will evaluate all quotes received against Technical, and Price. Technical quotes will be evaluated on an acceptable or unacceptable basis. The Price Factor will be evaluated for reasonableness. Tradeoffs are not permitted under this approach. If one subfactor is determined unacceptable, the entire technical factor will be determined unacceptable. Technical Factor 1 Evaluation Results Compliance with Equipment Specifications Subfactor 1 Acceptable/Unacceptable Meet Delivery Time Subfactor 2 Acceptable/Unacceptable Maintenance/Repair/Replacement/Transportation Plan IAW established timelines. Subfactor 3 Acceptable/Unacceptable Price Factor 2 Total Price (All Years and FAR 52.217-8) 1.1. Qualifying Criteria. Information submitted for the qualifying criteria will be evaluated to determine if the offer meets the definitions below in order to "pass." If the Vendor fails any of the qualifying criteria, they will "fail" to qualify (i.e. be determined ineligible for award as a deficiency). The Vendors will be assessed as passed if the minimum requirements definitions below have been met. 1.1.1. Fully Executed Quote/Contract Forms. The Vendor indicated that it is eligible for a Government contract based on the Vendor's responses to the representations, certifications, all contract forms, and other statements required by the RFQ. Additionally, in order to ensure that the Vendor is a commercial company that is primarily engaged in the business of leasing and/or renting heavy equipment to the general public, the Government will review the Vendor's brochure and published commercial price list. 1.1.2. Small Business Subcontracting Plans (Pass/Fails Basis). The Vendor provided a reasonable small business subcontracting plan IAW FAR 52.219-9, Small Business Subcontracting Plan, Alternate II and DFARS 252.219-7003, Small Business subcontracting plan (DoD contracts). 1.2. FACTOR 1: TECHNICAL CAPABILITY. Under the Technical Capability Factor, the Government will evaluate the Vendor's quote to assess whether the Vendor's quote will satisfy the Government's requirements in the SOW as outlined below. Each subfactor will receive an individual rating. The Government will not roll up subfactors for an overall Factor 1 rating. In order to be considered awardable, there must be an "acceptable" rating in every technical subfactor. Technical Acceptable/Unacceptable Ratings Rating Description Acceptable Quote clearly meets the minimum requirements of the solicitation. Unacceptable Quote does not clearly meet the minimum requirements of the solicitation. 1.2.1. Subfactor 1: Equipment: The Government will evaluate the Vendor's proposed equipment to ensure that the Vendor will provide operable heavy equipment for use as training aids for the 18C Special Forces Sergeant Course IAW equipment list on SOW part 5.1. 1.2.2. Subfactor 2: Meet Delivery Time. The Government will evaluate the Vendor's approach to ensure it provides a feasible approach which provides for adequate assurances that ALL of the equipment would be delivered by 26 March 2018. 1.2.3. Subfactor 3: Maintenance/Repair/Replacement/Transportation Plan. The Government will evaluate the following under Subfactor 3: a. The Vendor presents a feasible approach to providing preventative maintenance on all the equipment IAW the SOW and the manufacturer's recommendations. b. The Vendor presents a feasible approach to providing 24 hour emergency service, 365 days a year. In addition, the Vendor provides an adequate Service Support approach and thoroughly explains how it will meet the Government's call back requirements of 2 hours for initial feedback and a 48 hour call back for resolution. c. The Vendor presents a feasible and acceptable approach to providing repaired equipment or replacements within two (2) working days. d. The Vendor presents a feasible approach to meeting the Government's transportation requirements within two (2) working days in advance of the requirement. 1.4. FACTOR 3. PRICE. Price will be evaluated in order to determine that it is fair and reasonable utilizing the price analysis techniques found at FAR 15.404(b). Price quote evaluations will consider the basic price and all option year prices (including FAR 52.217-8 for the maximum potential extension period of 6 months) for a total overall evaluated Price. The Government will roll-up CLIN/SubCLIN prices into an overall total price for the overall evaluated price. Price will not receive a color rating or score. The Government price team will evaluate Vendors's price submission based on the following: Reasonableness: Reasonableness will be determined by comparing the Vendor's total price proposed to the total price proposed by the other Vendors. Comparisons will focus on the price of base period and all options combined, this will also include a balance assessment. Evaluation of options shall not obligate the Government to exercise the option(s). Additionally, total proposed prices may be compared to the Independent Government Estimate (IGE) to determine the reasonableness of price. A price is reasonable if, in its nature and amount, it does not exceed that which would be incurred by a prudent person in the conduct of competitive business. (a) Options. As part of price evaluation, the Government will evaluate its option to extend services (see FAR Clause 52.217-8) by adding six (6) months of the Vendor's final option period price to the Vendor's total price. Vendors shall not submit a price for the potential six month extension of services period. The Government may choose to exercise the Option to Extend ...
