Section M - Evaluation Factors for Award

1. Evaluation Methodology

The Government will award a Firm-Fixed-Price contract resulting from this solicitation to the technically acceptable, responsible, and responsive offeror whose proposal represents the Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA). Proposals will be evaluated on an "Acceptable" or "Unacceptable" basis. Award may not be made to the lowest-priced offeror if the Technical Proposal is evaluated as "Unacceptable".

1. Evaluation Criteria

Factor 1: Technical Acceptability

The Technical Proposal will be evaluated as Acceptable or Unacceptable based on the following criteria:

Technical Approach: The proposal demonstrates a thorough, logical, and feasible understanding of the SOW performance tasks. It must clearly demonstrate the contractor's ability to perform site excavation, 3-lift bituminous paving, perimeter fence post replacement, gate installation, and grounding system integration.

Material Compliance: The offeror explicitly commits to using new vinyl-coated steel wire ties and new black vinyl-coated steel posts meeting Section 32 31 13 requirements, with concrete footings domed at grade.

Limitation on Subcontracting: The proposal demonstrates compliance with FAR 52.219-14, proving that the small business prime contractor will perform at least 25% of the total labor cost of construction with its own employees.

Factor 2: Price Proposal

Attachment 0003 Completeness: The price proposal must contain a fully completed Attachment 0003 Contractor Cost Breakdown Form. Lump-sum pricing without a narrative description of cost assumptions is unacceptable.

Labor Compliance: All direct labor rates must meet or exceed the minimum base + fringe rates specified in Davis-Bacon General Wage Decision WV20260051.
