SOLICITATION NUMBER N00173-12-R-CB02 PAGE 64 (c) Rating Methodology All proposals shall be subject to evaluation by a team of Government personnel. 1. The evaluation will be based on a complete assessment of the offeror’s technical proposal, past performance information and price proposal. Technical is significantly more important that past performance and the non-price evaluation criteria (technical and past performance), when combined, are significantly more important than price. However, price becomes more important as non-price factors become equal. Non-price technical proposals shall be evaluated on the following four (4) factors which are ranked in the following order of importance: Personnel Qualifications is more important than Company Experience and Management Ability, which are of equal, but lesser importance than Personnel Qualifications, with Facilities being the least important technical factor. 2. Proposals will be assessed on how well each offeror’s proposal meets the solicitation requirements and the risks associated with the offeror’s approach. Determining how well the offeror’s proposal meets the solicitation requirements will be accomplished in two steps. First, a determination will be made if the offeror’s proposal meets the solicitation requirements. Next, the discriminators will be identified for the proposals reflecting the unique strengths, weaknesses, significant weaknesses, and deficiencies of each offer. In addition, the Government will examine the impact of each discriminator and assess its relative value to the Government. In order to make a sound selection decision, the Government needs to understand the ways in which a given proposal is considered technically strong, as well as the ways in which it is weak or deficient. Hence, a catalog of the strengths, weaknesses, and deficiencies (in terms of the evaluation criteria) will be utilized to facilitate the process of determining which proposal presents the best overall value to the Government. 3. The offerors will receive one overall rating value for the non-price proposal evaluation factors. Price, while being an important factor, is not in and of itself the determining factor in the selection of the successful offeror for award of the contract contemplated by this solicitation. The Contracting Officer may reasonably determine that the superior solution/approach merits a higher price, and therefore represents the best value to the Government. The Contracting Officer, using sound business judgment, will base the selection decision on the integrated assessment of the Offeror(s)’ non-price factors and price factor measured against the evaluation criteria listed below: 4. Evaluation of Technical Proposal: PERSONNEL QUALIFICATIONS: The proposal will be evaluated on the offeror’s demonstrated ability to provide personnel with: (1) the appropriate qualifications as set forth in Enclosure (1) of the Statement of Work; (2) actual relevant experience in the technical and scientific areas set forth in the Statement of Work; and (3) the possession by key personnel of a final favorable DoD adjudicated clearance commensurate with the level of access required for the performance of this contract prior to commencing work. The objective of this criterion is to establish that the contractor has personnel with credible capability and experience to complete the proposed work. COMPANY EXPERIENCE: The proposal will be evaluated on the offeror’s demonstrated company experience in performing projects requiring scientific and technical effort which
SOLICITATION NUMBER N00173-12-R-CB02 PAGE 65 is closely similar or related to the scientific and technical efforts set forth in the Statement of Work. MANAGEMENT ABILITY: The proposal will be evaluated on the offeror’s demonstrated management ability and success in managing projects of similar complexity and duration as that set forth in the Statement of Work. The proposal will also be evaluated on the offeror’s strategy for assuring a smooth and effective transition between the offeror’s organization personnel and the incumbent contractor’s personnel into the ongoing system development, maintenance, and operations efforts. The proposal will be evaluated on the offeror’s ability to complete all the transition activities within 90 days after contract award. FACILITIES: The proposal will be evaluated on the availability of current statement-ofthe-art facilities and equipment. The offeror will be evaluated on whether these facilities and equipment are corporately owned, leased, or the property of a team member. The offeror will be evaluated on their ability to either use of acquire new resources to satisfy program requirements. Finally, the proposal will also be evaluated on the offeror’s possession and ability to maintain a TOP SECRET facility clearance and SECRET storage capabilities. 5. Evaluation of Other Non-Price Factors PAST PERFORMANCE: Offeror’s will be evaluated based on past performance information presented in their proposals (including past performance reports) and on information obtained by contacting the Offeror’s supplied references relative to current projects or those completed within the last five (5) years. In addition, the Contracting Officer has the discretion to retrieve information via offeror supplied references, commercial sources, and federal sources. The past performance evaluation will assess the degree of confidence the government has in an offeror’s ability to satisfactorily meet the requirements of the contract based on the offeror’s demonstrated record of performance. The past performance evaluation will consider each offeror’s demonstrated recent and relevant record of performance in supplying products and services that meet the contractor’s requirements. Past performance information reviewed will pertain to work performed that is similar to that required by the Statement of Work. In determining relevance, consideration will be given to contracts of similar project complexity, scope, type and schedule. Offeror’s Past performance will be evaluated on the basis of the quality of the work performed, timeliness of the performance, effectiveness of management, compliance with cost/price estimates, customer satisfaction, and overall performance. An offeror with no relevant past performance information will receive a neutral rating, i.e., the rating will not add to or detract from the offeror’s rating for this factor. SMALL BUSINESS PARTICIPATION: All offerors will be evaluated on the level of small business commitment that they are demonstrating for the proposed acquisition, and their level of commitment to utilizing small businesses in performance of prior contracts. The following shall evidence small business participation: a. The extent to which such firms, as defined in FAR Part 19, are specifically
