Source Selection Procedures as identified in FAR PART 15.3 will be utilized in the selection of a firm offering the best value to the Government in terms of price and technical merit and whose performance is expected to best meet stated Government requirements. Accordingly, offerors will be evaluated based on technical merit with respect to demonstrated successful past performance, including the past performance of their subcontractors, qualified/experienced personnel and on their price proposals. All proposals are required to address each of the foregoing qualifications. Omission of any of the criteria may render proposal nonresponsive, preventing the opportunity to submit a price proposal and gain further consideration for award. The acquisition process shall consist of four phases: 1.) Receipt and evaluation of technical proposals utilizing selected criteria, the technical evaluation factors, Technical proposals submitted as a result of this advertisement shall not contain prices or pricing information. [NOTE: If you?d like to begin to format your pricing information at this point, you?d be that much further alone once GSA request pricing information. Study?s on all of the three buildings are available.] 2.) Develop an advisory short list based on technical qualifications/proposals of the most technically qualified firms. GSA may make a final determination regarding a proposal?s acceptability solely on the basis of the proposal as submitted. GSA may proceed with the next step without requesting further information from any offeror; however, GSA may request additional information from offerors of proposals that it considers reasonably susceptible of being made acceptable, and may discuss proposal with their oferors. In this stage, GSA will advise each respondent that participates in Phase 1, in writing, as to whether or not it will be invited to participate in Phase 3, or that it is unlikely to be a viable competitor. GSA will advise the responding firms considered not to be viable competitors and the basis of GSA's opinion. GSA will inform all respondents that not withstanding the advice provided by GSA in response to their submission in Phase 1, they may participate in Phase 3. 3.) Receipt and evaluation of initial price proposals based on 100% construction documents (A competitive range will then be developed by the Contracting Officer). 4.) Negotiations and evaluation of final offers. Upon receipt and evaluation of all technical and price proposals, a formal selection of a firm will be made that offers the greatest value to the Government based on a combination of technical evaluation and price factors. For this procurement, technical evaluation factors are more important than cost or price.
