Maintenance, repair & rebuilding of equipment

NASA/GSFC has a requirement to acquire preventative maintenance on two (2) DI water systems. This is combined synopsis/solicitation for commercial items prepared in accordance with the format in Subpart 12.6. This announcement constitutes the only solicitation; quotations are being requested and written solicitation will not be issued. The solicitation number is 80GSFC17Q0007. This solicitation is issued as a request for quotation (RFQ). The solicitation document, incorporated provisions and clauses are those in effect through Federal Acquisition Circular 2005-95. All offerors may submit a written quote via e-mail that will be reviewed by the Government. The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) Code for this acquisition is 811310. All responsible sources may submit an offer which shall be considered by the agency. The period of performance shall be one year after the award of the contract plus four (4) one year options. The place of acceptance and FOB point is Destination. Offers submitted on a basis other than FOB Destination will be rejected as nonresponsive. The provision at 52.212-1, Instructions to Offerors Commercial, applies to this acquisition. The provision at 52.212-2, Evaluation Commercial items, applies to this acquisition. The following factors shall be used to evaluate offers: Descending Order of Importance: 1) Technical Capability of the items and services offered to meet the Government requirement, 2) Price, and 3) Past Performance. Technical and past performance, when combined, are significantly more important than price. The basis of the evaluation will be inclusive of the option periods. 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/item description 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 for performed and the number (phone and fax) of a contract 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 contract listed and the corrective actions taken to resolve them. 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 an offeror 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 quotes. The quote should provide the information requested above for past performance evaluation, or affirmatively state that it possesses no relevant directly related or similar past performance. Offerors shall include a completed copy of the provision at 52.212-3 (Jan 2017), Offeror Representations and Certifications-Commercial Items, with its offer.
