As prescribed in 12.301(c), the Contracting Officer may insert a provision substantially as follows:
Evaluation -- Commercial Items (Oct 2014)
(a) The Government will award a contract resulting from this solicitation to the responsible offeror whose offer conforming to the solicitation will be most advantageous to the Government, price and other factors considered, Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA). The following factors shall be used to evaluate offers:
(i) technical capability:
(ii) past performance:
(iii) price
Technical and past performance, when combined, are approximately equal to cost or price. To be considered technically acceptable, both technical and past performance must be rated acceptable.
The Government reserves the right to conduct clarifications and discussions if later determined by the Contracting Officer to be necessary. Proposals that fail to furnish required representations or information, or reject the terms and conditions of the solicitation may be excluded from consideration.
(b) A written notice of 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 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.
(c) Ratings
Technical - Provide a resume and the Qualifications and Certifications/licenses for key personnel that will be involved in the survey, testing, design, and estimate. Key Personal include the Project Manager and any person that will participate in the design or testing. Certification shall include at a minimum a licensed PE, Project Manager, in the specific field relevant to do the work.
Technical shall be rated either acceptable or unacceptable per the below table.
Adjectival Rating Description
Acceptable Proposal meets the requirements of the solicitation
Unacceptable Proposal does not meet the requirements of the solicitation
Past Performance - The contractor shall provide a minimum three (3) recent projects within the past five (5) years, with points of contacts and their phone numbers. Projects shall be completed or close to completion, 80% or greater, that are of similar size, scope and magnitude; whose performance was satisfactory (for purposes of this solicitation, satisfactory means the performance met contractual requirements and the performance of the areas being assessed contained minor issues or concerns, for which the corrective actions taken by Contractor were effective). Provide the following information for each project, so past performance can be verified.
Contract Number
Contract Name
General Scope of the Project
Contract Amount
POC with contact number
Past performance should be evaluated to determine whether the offeror's present/past performance is recent, and relevant or not relevant to the effort to be acquired. Past performance shall be rated either acceptable or unacceptable per the below table
NOTE: In the case of an offeror without a record of relevant past performance or for whom information on past performance is not available or so sparse that no meaningful past performance rating can be reasonably assigned, the offeror may not be evaluated favorably or unfavorably on past performance (see FAR 15.305 (a)(2)(iv)). Therefore, the offeror shall be determined to have unknown (or "neutral")
past performance. In the context of acceptability/unacceptability, a neutral rating shall be considered "acceptable."
Adjectival Rating Description
Acceptable Based on the offeror's performance record, the Government has a reasonable expectation that the offeror will successfully perform the required effort, or the offeror's performance record is
unknown. (See note above)
Unacceptable Based on the offeror's performance record, the Government does not have a reasonable expectation that the offeror will be able to
successfully perform the required effort.

1.) The Contractor shall submit a pricing sheet to include all costs associated with the survey, testing, and design of the Cathodic Protection IAW the SOW (See attachment A).
