1.3 Reserved
1.4 Past Performance Proposal:
(a) The offeror is required to provide any current relevant information regarding the level of performance, in terms of delivery and quality achieved under either US Government or commercial contracts for the same or similar services for performance in Germany. The information provided should support a qualitative review of the offeror; and/or record of performance in the areas of conforming to specifications, adherence to contract schedules, history of reasonable and cooperative behavior, commitment to customer satisfaction, and business-like concern for the interest of your customer. Additionally, if performance deficiencies were identified, what they were and what corrective action was taken.
(b) Offerors shall submit past performance data for their firm. For each reference provided, a valid name and telephone number, contract number, contract type, dollar value, contract award and completion dates, point of contact, description of work performed, and e-mail address of point of contact is required. The description of work performed shall be in sufficient detail to explain the type of facility inspection services and geographic coverage (U.S. and International) commensurate with the scope and territory required in this procurement.
(c) Reference projects and corresponding reference surveys are limited to three (3) projects considered by the offeror to be the most relevant to the requirements of this solicitation. If more than three projects with reference surveys are received, the US Government will consider the first three projects received based upon the date and time the reference surveys are received.
(d) Attachment 4 contains a past performance survey that is used to evaluate an offeror’s past performance. The offeror shall provide the past performance survey in Attachment 4 to the past performance reference they identify in this part of the proposal for the offeror. The past performance reference shall independently submit the survey to the Contracting Officer prior to the closing date of the solicitation. Any completed past performance survey received after the date of closing or directly from the offeror will not be considered in the past performance evaluation. The US Government will not evaluate a reference listed in the past performance proposal if no corresponding survey is received from a reference for that contract. This will have the effect of the offeror being given a Neutral rating for that portion of their overall evaluation, regardless of the type of experience or its similarity to this requirement. Reference surveys must be received by the due date for receipt of proposals in order for the information to be considered. Offerors are cautioned that due to mail delivery times to the U.S., it is highly recommended that all contract references being asked to provide surveys be asked to scan the documents in Adobe .pdf format and email it to [email protected] with a reference to the solicitation, SP4510-25-Q-1003 in the subject heading.
(e) The submission of a past performance volume is required. If an offeror does not have any past performance references, offerors must at least identify Volume 2 in their proposal and state they do not have any past performance to provide. If the US Government only receives a past performance survey from a past performance reference and there is no information in an offeror’s proposal regarding that reference (see paragraph above), the reference will not be considered. The offeror is responsible for ensuring references submit past performance surveys; the US Government will not be contacting references for purposes of obtaining the survey.
ADDENDUM TO 52.212-2 EVALUATION – COMMERCIAL ITEMS
1.5 Evaluation of Past Performance:
(1) The US Government will evaluate the quality of the offeror’s past performance. The assessment of the offeror’s past performance will be used as a means of evaluating the probability of success of the offeror. Thus, an offeror with a higher confidence assessment rating for past performance will have a higher probability of meeting the solicitation requirements than a firm with a lower confidence assessment rating.
(2) In investigating an offeror’s past performance, the US Government may consider information in the offeror’s proposal and information obtained from other sources, including past and present customers and their employees, other US Government agencies, including state and local agencies, consumer protection organizations and better business bureaus; former subcontractors; and others who may have useful information. Failure by the offeror to provide evidence of relevant performance on contracts of a similar nature in terms of performance timeframes and complexities of services provided will be considered by the US Government to have no relevant past performance. The offeror is responsible for ensuring references submit past performance surveys; the offeror’s reference must submit the past performance survey. The US Government will not accept past performance surveys submitted by the offeror or contact offeror references to obtain a completed survey. The US Government will evaluate past performance and experience in accordance with submission requirements of 1.4.
(3) Evaluation of past performance will be a subjective assessment based on a consideration of all relevant facts and circumstances. It will not be based on absolute standards of acceptable performance. The US Government is seeking to determine whether the offeror has consistently demonstrated a commitment to customer satisfaction and timely delivery of services. This is a matter of judgment. Offerors will be given an opportunity to address especially unfavorable reports of past performance, and the offeror’s response, or lack thereof, will be taken into consideration. Offerors lacking relevant past performance will not receive negative or positive consideration in the evaluation of this element as no meaningful confidence assessment rating can be reasonably assigned.
(4) Past performance will be rated on an adjectival scale. The US Government’s conclusions about the overall quality of the offeror’s past performance and experience will be a factor in determining the relative merits of the offeror’s proposal and in selecting the offeror whose proposal is considered the most advantageous to the US Government.
(5) By past performance, the US Government means how well the offeror conformed to specifications and to standards of good workmanship; the offeror’s adherence to contract schedules, including the administrative aspects of performance; the offeror’s history of reasonable and cooperative behavior and commitment to customer satisfaction; and the offeror’s business-like concern for the interests of the customer. By experience, the US Government means whether a contractor’s firm has performed similar work before. DLA Disposition Services will also consider the offeror’s past performance and experience on the same or similar contracts in terms of the complexities of the services provided. Offerors with no past performance will be issued a Neutral rating for past performance.
(f) A written notice of the award or acceptance of an offer, mailed or otherwise furnished to the successful offeror within the time for acceptance specified in the offer, shall result in a binding contract without further action by either party. Before the offer’s specified expiration time, the US Government may accept an offer (or part of an offer), whether or not there are negotiations after its receipt, unless a written notice of withdrawal is received before award.
1.6 Evaluation Factors for Award:
a. The US Government will make award to the responsible offeror whose offer conforms to the solicitation and demonstrates the best value to the US Government in terms of their past performance and price.
b. The evaluation factors are listed below:
(i) Past Performance
(ii) Price
(iii) Past performance is significantly more important than price.
1.7 Evaluation of Price: The offered price will be used in conjunction with the other factors to determine the proposal, which represents the best value to the US Government. Price will not be numerically scored, but it will be fully evaluated using price analysis techniques.
